Three more free helpers have joined, and I hope this week's competition can earn more Points than last week! Honestly, I would be satisfied if I could just match last week's Points. One match last week earned me nearly nine Wan Ji points, which really helped me get on the path to a better life! 0
 
This week, my expenses on Points are a bit high. I spent over twenty thousand just on a set of boat fishing gear, and with the custom orders for these three Rod, my master will eventually need to make me a set too. Plus, there’s restocking at the shop. If I order another set for myself, my Points will be depleted! 0
 
Recently, the growth of Points has been quite rapid. With so many Hook given away and the full promotion from Old Gao, I've been seeing results. I can earn about three to four thousand Points every day; otherwise, I'd be back to square one! 0
 
After sending Shi Tian and Old Kong back to their rooms, Old Wen casually asked while sitting on the sofa: What does Xiao Tian's master do? 0
 
Mentioning Shi Tian's master made Old Kong raise his eyebrows. After thinking for a moment, he replied: Xiao Tian met a remarkable person on the plane when he came to Sanya. This is someone who can eat across the entire country without spending a dime! 0
 
Last time we were together, while drinking and chatting, Shi Tian mentioned his thrifty master. Others didn’t pay much attention, but Shi Ye took it upon himself to look into this thrifty master of Shi Tian. To his surprise, what he found about Yi Laotou left him astonished. 0
 
Shi Ye thought he was quite something himself, but compared to Yi Laoyez, he felt humbled. This old man built a massive food empire all by himself—a culinary empire that belongs solely to him. 0
 
While Shi Ye has money and connections, Yi Laoyez lives freely! No matter which city he goes to, there are disciples running around serving him. He has no worries about food or clothing; everything is arranged perfectly. That’s not something just anyone can compare to! 0
 
Hearing Old Kong describe Shi Tian’s master as remarkable made Old Wen even more curious! 0
 
It wasn’t just Old Wen who was intrigued; Old Liu was equally surprised. 0
 
A freeloader? A con artist? Looking at Old Kong, Old Liu blurted out a question. 0
 
He’s a person from the martial world but not a con artist. I believe that Xiao Tian’s cooking skills must have come from him. I heard he even taught Xiao Tian about feng shui; I wonder if he learned it well! 0
 
With a dark expression, Old Kong replied to Old Liu: You remember when Chef Sun Chef dropped his pot about ten years ago? That was done by this master that Xiao Tian picked up on the plane! 0
 
As he spoke, Old Kong pulled up the information about Yi Laotou, shared by Shi Ye, from his phone and sent it to their small group chat. 0
 
Sun Chef, a top-level chef at state banquets—he’s an elite chef and a towering figure in the culinary world. 0
 
Meanwhile, Yi Laotou, feeling bored, went to disrupt his disciple’s restaurant. Not only did he challenge them but also caused quite a scene. 0
 
Upon hearing this, Chef Sun Chef, in an effort to help his disciple regain face, invited several renowned chefs from the capital as witnesses. 0
 
What happened next? Not only did he get slapped in the face by Yi Laotou, but he was also publicly scolded. This infuriated Chef Sun Chef, leading him to throw down his pot in front of several famous chefs from the capital! 0
 
A professional elite chef with the title of state banquet chef got humiliated in culinary skills by someone who reads fortunes—Chef Sun Chef was lucky not to have collapsed from anger right then and there! 0
 
After glancing through the information on Yi Laotou, with narrowed eyes, Old Wen lay back on the sofa: This matter with Yi Laotou needs further investigation tomorrow! 0
 
Hearing this, Old Liu looked confused and turned to stare at Old Wen: Investigation? Why? 0
 
 
Old Liu shot a glance at Old Wen, who then spoke up, "Why? Just to enjoy some food and drinks!" 0
 
Sitting up to sip his tea, Old Wen leisurely explained, "His disciples are spread all over, and his businesses are everywhere. He never has to worry about food and drink, plus he has people catering to him. If we drag him down into this mess, wouldn't he be free to fish wherever he pleases?" 0
 
As soon as Old Wen finished speaking, Old Kong's eyes lit up. "Are you talking about fishing for fun?" 0
 
If it were just the three of them old men, they wouldn't even think about such leisure! Their families would surely be worried. But with Yi Laotou involved, there might be a chance! 0
 
Enjoying delicious food while admiring beautiful scenery and casually fishing—this all depended on Yi Laotou! As long as they could win him over, it would be a done deal! However, this old man had been around the block for years; getting him on board wouldn't be easy! Lying back on the sofa, Old Wen closed his eyes again. 0
 
The next morning, Shi Tian picked up the three old men and headed to the competition venue. After introducing each of them to his cheap master, he started preparing for the contest while making sure the old men were well taken care of. 0
 
Today's competition had even more participants than last week—almost like a festival with drums and banners! 0
 
After reiterating the rules, the organizers lined everyone up to hand out hooks. One by one, the contestants took their places at the fishing spots, and Shui Laoban arrived in his big pickup truck! 0
 
With a signal, the competition began. Shi Tian stole a glance at the rapidly moving points and couldn't help but smile broadly! 0
 
"Yi Laodai, your rod skills are impressive! Did you learn that fishing technique from Xiao Tian?" Old Kong casually chatted while absentmindedly casting his Bai Tiao. 0
 
Yi Laodai was in the center; Old Kong sat on his left and Old Wen on his right. As for Old Liu and Scallions and Ginger, they were positioned on either side as guards! 0
 
"Xiao Tian's fishing skills? Not really. I only learned to fish to support Xiao Tian; this rod was a gift from him two days ago!" Yi Laodai raised the rod in his hand as he replied nonchalantly. 0
 
Fearing that the three old men might think he was taking advantage of Shi Tian, Yi Laodai added after casting his line, "Xiao Tian is quite clever. He casually gave me a recipe at the airport, and he managed to cook those dishes just as they were described—better than I expected! So I gave him some pointers!" 0
 
When Shi Tian introduced the three old men as family elders, Yi Laodai felt he had to tread carefully. He didn't know what their family dynamics were like; it was all so muddled that he ended up taking on a disciple. He needed to leave himself an escape route just in case. 0
 
Hearing that Yi Laodai had just started learning to fish made Old Kong and Old Wen smile slightly; this was promising—they could wait for him to fall into their trap! But they knew they couldn't rush it; they had to take it slow! 0
 
They had all tasted Xiao Tian's cooking before—it was quite good—and they were curious where he had learned such skills. Little did they know he had found a renowned teacher! 0
 
Chuckling back at Yi Laodai, Old Wen continued, "When we came over two days ago, Xiao Tian prepared a feast for us that showcased significant improvement in his skills—all thanks to Yi Laodai!" 0
