Watching Throwing Rod Brother not turn off the lights anymore, Shi Tian knew that Throwing Rod Brother couldn't hold on much longer.
When the bell rang, he noticed Throwing Rod Brother's body visibly shudder. Throwing Rod Brother wanted to curse; it was late at night, and he wished there would be some noise! At least let him know that Shi Tian was alive!
He got up to find the ringing rod, glanced back at the shadow, which was still standing there without moving, not taking advantage of his distraction to launch a sneak attack. As he reeled in the line, he occasionally turned to look at the distant shadow. He decided to turn sideways, facing the shadow while reeling in the line; he no longer cared whether there were fish on the rod.
After reeling in one rod and tossing the fish back into the river, Throwing Rod Brother picked up another rod to continue reeling in.
You're impressive! I can't mess with you; I'll just avoid you!
Watching Throwing Rod Brother reel in rod after rod, Shi Tian hurried back to the car. It was almost time; as soon as Throwing Rod Brother left, they could go down and start fishing.
Is he gone? Once in the car, Yi Laotou put away his phone with a puzzled expression.
Not yet, but soon; he's almost done with the rods. With a click of the car door lock and turning off the key, darkness enveloped the inside of the car.
People are always filled with curiosity and fear about what they don't know—it's such a contradiction! He sighed and stared at the road ahead; as soon as they saw car lights, they could go over and start fishing.
Throwing Rod Brother was finally overcome by fear. He packed up his rods and stuffed them into his bag. After glancing at that shadow one last time, he picked up his rod and left quickly down the small path, looking back three times.
As soon as he opened the car door and tossed his things into the back, he inserted the key to turn on the lights and locked the door!
Seeing Throwing Rod Brother leave, Shi Tian quickly started the car and turned it around to head back.
Carrying their gear and leading Yi Laotou down to the riverbank, they noticed that shadow had also come over.
With that kind of courage, he dares to night fish? What a joke! I wasted half an hour feeding mosquitoes.
After complaining about Throwing Rod Brother, he changed back into his clothes in the car and returned to the riverbank with their equipment; they could finally start fishing.
Half an hour of being timid? How long would those who are bold have to stand?
Xia Ge, what’s the longest you’ve ever stood? He took out some snake repellent powder and sprinkled it around; although it had a strong smell, it worked quite well.
The longest time? I once lit seven Gui Huo in succession and stood for three hours while people surrounded me studying it for three hours.
That guy was like Dog Brother—he learned from me but ended up trading two bottles of artificial Gui Huo for two Fishing Spots.
Recalling this incident made Long Xia feel embarrassed. If it weren't for that critical moment when he immediately sought peace, they probably would have been taken back to a lab for dissection by that guy.
That time I was careless; while posing for a photo, I didn’t pay attention and caught his eye—he was prepared. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have ended up being played like a fool for three hours.
Listening to Lobster recount his painful past, Shi Tian shook his head and smiled wryly.
In this world, what goes around comes around. You’ve played with so many people; it’s only fair that you get played with in return. It’s a pity we didn’t drag you back for a proper slice; that would have been a service to the people.
After taking a jab at Lobster, he set up his gear, attaching the main line and the sub-line, number seven Ise Nii. He adjusted the float and prepared to bait the hook. Junyu liked fishy scents, so he used Xia Fen as the main ingredient. A bit of all-purpose fish scent, some number six crucian carp bait, and a touch of Hong Chong, mixed with high-viscosity stickiness from the powder—this was how Shi Tian approached baiting, going with the flow.
He cast the bait, let it settle for a moment, and took out his phone to check the message from Sun Lang. Sun Lang had brought back the Mini Light Boat and parked it at the pier that the old man had repaired. Given the time, Sun Lang should have already returned home, so he decided not to disturb him.
Lately, Sun Lang had been busier than Shi Tian himself—taking the old man to Jiangnan and helping some unreliable people expand their operations there. The Jiangnan branch wasn’t fully established yet, and he was also busy making short videos. While Shi Tian was in Africa, Sun Lang was responsible for building the Star Brand Army. Initially tasked with assembling ten thousand troops, he was now close to leading an army of one hundred thousand.
He left a message for Sun Lang about organizing an event there tomorrow. He would have him send out an announcement; when people arrived, Lobster could act as a temporary commander. It didn’t seem like many would show up tomorrow anyway.
The bait woke up as it was hooked onto the line, and he cast it into the water. Tonight’s bait was somewhat random; whatever fish came along would be purely by chance.
There was no need to bait for Junyu; this type of fish preferred swift currents. Wo Liao would be thrown in without knowing where it might drift off to.
As soon as he cast his line, Yi Laotou on the other side had already caught his first fish—a little Qing Yu weighing less than two pounds. Yi Laotou began adding more bait to his own container.
The Mini Air Force returned to port and docked next to the Mini Light Boat. A few people disembarked in sequence, casting glances at the Mini Light Boat.
This collaboration was simpler than before; having learned from past experiences, several parties were now working together more harmoniously. The production of New Battery was much easier than Carbon Fiber; once equipment was set up and a few large workshops were established, production could begin immediately.
The core technology of batteries lay in the materials used for the cells. Developing these materials was challenging, but once they hit the market, reverse engineering them would be significantly easier than with Carbon Fiber.
Shi Tian had told Shi Ye not to treat this technology as precious; they should first secure their market share before accumulating enough resources to move directly into room-temperature superconductors. With Shi Tian’s reassurance, Shi Ye felt more at ease. Without room-temperature superconductors as a backup, there was a risk that these batteries could inadvertently be labeled as military-grade products, which would limit their market potential.
The raw materials came from the Old Lu Family; that much he wouldn’t compromise on. As for extracting rare materials this time around, Shi Ye decided not to outsource it again. He planned to check in with Shi Chui—if he wanted to get involved himself, great; if not, he’d arrange for someone else to handle it.
The likelihood of Shi Chui getting involved was slim; he had been talking about retirement constantly. If it weren’t for the lack of successors for his Import and Export Department, he would have already been traveling through realms with Yun Wan'er.
For battery production, Old Kong would take charge; given his stature, no one dared to encroach on his territory or openly reverse-engineer anything.
Compared to the technology of this battery, the extraction value of Rare Metals is the highest. This technology can be applied not only to batteries but also across various industries.
Throughout the entire process, Shi Ye never mentioned this technology, and there was no discussion among the group, including Old Lu who provided the ore. Now, aside from Shi Tian and Shi Ye, no one else is aware of this technology.
