Ten dollars for a bottle of drink, and you even get a free rod. What more do you want?
When it comes to fishing, the handsome guy was quite generous. He scanned the code to pay and eagerly dragged his girlfriend toward the back with a bag of bait in hand. The timer was already ticking, so they had to hurry!
Watching the couple run to the back to cast their lines, Shi Tian smiled slightly and began looking for his next target.
"Hey handsome, looking for beauties?" he called out. "Where can you find beautiful women here? They're all on the little boats in the lake! Ten dollars for an hour of fishing; if you're lucky, you might catch a mermaid from one of those boats!"
"Beautiful lady, are you traveling alone? Do you know where all the good men are? They're all fishing by the river! They don’t gamble or indulge in other vices; they can sit by the river all day with just a rod. If they have patience and a good temper, they’re worth it!"
The ratio of men to women among fishermen is nine to one. Just pick one from the riverbank and invite him to fish a few times; wouldn’t that mean bringing him home?
Ten dollars for an hour, and we’ll teach you everything. Why not try it out for an hour first? Then we can send you over to that handsome guy for some free comprehensive guidance—another successful deal!
Watching Shi Tian’s shameless antics, Air Force and Lu Ya couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
“Xiao Tian, have some decency! We shouldn’t sell our integrity for just a few bucks!” Air Force said, turning to give Shi Tian a look.
As more people filled the shop, Shi Tian gradually toned it down. But trying to maintain his integrity was impossible.
Everyone here was a tourist; they were just looking to have fun. As long as they were happy, who would care about ten or eight dollars?
Integrity? What’s the use of that? This is just basic human interaction. With that thought, Shi Tian spotted another target.
Dressed quite ordinarily but well put together overall.
He definitely wouldn’t buy a thousand-dollar rod, but he could still help bring some business into the shop.
“Handsome, judging by your looks, you must be someone with untapped potential! Do you know where you’re most likely to meet your benefactor?” After responding to Air Force, Shi Tian turned back to flirt with another handsome guy on the street.
“Where?” Shi Tianyi asked instinctively as Zhang Wanquan chimed in.
“Can you meet anyone above management level in a company without an appointment? Can you see anyone other than the low-level staff at government offices? Even at a hospital, if you spend ten dollars on an appointment, you only get five minutes of their time; they dictate what you hear.”
Once he finished his point, Shi Tian chuckled and said, “But down by the river, it’s different. There, you can meet all kinds of people. As long as you catch more fish than them, they might even come running to ask for some bait or fishing tips.”
If you spend enough time together and your talents shine through, how could you possibly remain unnoticed?
Listening to Shi Tian speak so confidently, Zhang Wanquan felt somewhat dazed. He had seen Shi Tian’s job posting but hadn’t had time to call; instead, he had come directly seeking employment.
However, seeing Shi Tian's expression, I couldn't help but wonder if this was some kind of pyramid scheme!
"Hello, I'm here for the interview. Aren't you hiring store clerks? Here are my materials!"
Since I was already here, I might as well go through with the interview! If this really was a front for a pyramid scheme, he would surely act without hesitation to eliminate the threat and shut down this shady operation!
Zhang Wanquan's words brought tears to Kong Jun Lu Ya, who was watching the commotion, and to Xiao Xiao, who was chatting with the two. Shi Tian's business practices were truly outrageous; he almost tricked someone into going fishing instead of interviewing!
"Interview?!" Shi Tian took Zhang Wanquan's materials and casually flipped through them. Instantly dropping the facade of a pyramid scheme lecturer, he said seriously, "We run a Fishing Spot here. Do you know how to fish? If you don't know how to fish, that's a problem!"
Shi Tian initially wanted to hire two young women, as indicated in the job posting. If they were girls who didn't know how to fish, it wouldn't be a big deal; he could teach them enough to get by.
Most fishermen were male. Having two beautiful young women at the entrance would attract attention and surely boost business.
Since Zhang Wanquan had stubbornly come looking for work, if he knew how to fish, he could start right away and see how it went. If his skills were truly exceptional, keeping him on wouldn't be an issue. If all went well, he could even be groomed as a store manager; he would definitely be useful in the future.
"I can fish; I've tried various methods before. I can handle Taiwanese Fishing and Lure techniques," Zhang Wanquan replied with a frown. "But I've fished so much and never encountered the talent you're talking about!"
"What does being a Fishing Spot have to do with whether or not you can fish? Here, we provide the rods; you don't even need to adjust the floats—just time your catches and charge accordingly!"
"Oh! You're quite humorous!"
"You've used a Water Drop Reel before, right? Cast a couple of lines and see if you can throw accurately without tangling the line. If you can manage that, you'll enter a trial period of half a month. The pay is daily; no meals or accommodation provided."
Shi Tian took a gun handle rod from the rack along with a wheel and line, placing them on the counter while gesturing for Zhang Wanquan to start operating.
In this shop, there was no need for lures; even if someone bought a Lure Rod, they certainly wouldn't need help assembling it.
The reason Shi Tian wanted Zhang Wanquan to cast with the Water Drop Reel was simply to see if he was boasting or not. A cast with the Water Drop Reel would reveal whether someone was a novice or experienced right away.
