Rod in hand, Shen Che Ge followed Shi Tian back to the shop, ignoring the fact that Shi Tian was holding his phone to make a payment. Shi Tian quickly pulled out a Shovel.
"What are you doing?" Seeing Shi Tian brandishing the Shovel, Shen Che Ge instinctively took a step back.
"Buy a Rod and get a Shovel for free! It's a gift!" Shi Tian placed the Shovel on the counter and turned to grab a packet of Sea Bass Bait. "This is special Wo Liao for Largemouth Bass. Starting today, when you buy a Rod, you get a packet of Wo Liao. Do you want Sea Bass or Black Sea Bream?"
As he deftly grabbed the Shovel, Shen Che Ge scanned his payment and casually remarked, "Is this Wo Liao expired? Did you start giving it away as soon as I walked in?"
Earlier, when selling fish, Shi Tian had already mentioned giving him Wo Liao. Now that he was buying a Rod and getting more, was this store trying to offload expired bait? Was it going bad? Why were they giving it away so recklessly?
"This Wo Liao is something you can't even buy with money! You only get it when you buy a Rod or participate in the weekend Fishing Competition!"
As he spoke, Shi Tian took out a new Rod and Wheel from the shelf and chuckled, "Is one Rod enough? Or should you buy a shorter one too? I occasionally like to play with Lures; it's nice to cast a few lines with them when there's nothing else to do!"
Hearing this, Shen Che Ge instinctively touched his phone and decisively shook his head. "Let's talk about it next month! I'm a bit over budget this month! What’s this Fishing Competition you mentioned? Where is it held? How do I sign up?"
"The Bait Contest is happening tomorrow morning! It’s based on who catches the most fish; first prize is any Rod of your choice, without the reel." Shen Che Ge felt his wallet was already too thin; he could barely afford one Rod!
Upon hearing about the Bai Tiao draw, Shen Che Ge shook his head again. He was now aiming for Azure Sea Bass; how could he go back to drawing Bai Tiao? What kind of joke was that?
He tossed the Shovel into his car and grabbed the packet of Wo Liao along with the Rod. Pulling out a Fishing Chair and Fish Bucket from the car, he locked the door behind him.
"Give me half a pound of Live Shrimp! I’ll head back after fishing!" After saying that, he scanned his code at the entrance and hurriedly picked up the Live Shrimp that Shi Tian weighed for him before darting across to the opposite side.
Hanging up Xia Rou, he cast his line down; Shi Tian returned with his own Rod to continue fishing.
Life rarely goes as planned; with Shen Che Ge's finances in disarray and no big catches in sight, he could only keep fishing to pay off debts. The upgrade for his Fishing Box would take some time to complete; for now, he decided to catch a few fish first! They say those who owe money are kings, but this king certainly didn’t feel like one!
Under the careful guidance of the sea, Sun Lang finally cast his first line without tangling it!
Though it was only about twenty meters, it was still a significant improvement. Once he practiced controlling it better and mastered the current Wheel, he would gradually adjust and loosen the brake, casting further each time.
After not catching anything on his first cast, he reeled in and tried again—still around twenty meters.
Casting six or seven times in succession, he suddenly felt a tug! Another tug followed as he lifted his rod to hook the fish; even releasing tension started showing results!
Excited by catching a big fish on his first attempt with Lures, Sun Lang tightened the drag slightly while slowly reeling in.
It wasn’t late yet; however, it could be that since it was getting colder, they were biting earlier. Shi Tian glanced over at the commotion before turning back—Abo had already vanished from sight.
As he lifted his rod to hook another fish, he realized he had also caught something!
What was going on here? How does this Fishing Spot charge? Turning to glance at Shi Tian, Shen Che Ge asked.
Many people knew about the fishing spot at Shi Tian, but not many came to fish. A discerning eye could tell that this Fishing Spot was privately maintained. Being private meant it wasn't open to the public, and even if it were, there would be a fee involved.
Talking about money could ruin the mood; one could just come and fish. However, there was a rule here: after fishing, one had to clean up and take all trash away. No littering in Hai Li; otherwise, you’d end up on the blacklist!
With a casual remark, Shi Tian began to battle with the fish on his rod. This fish was clearly much larger than the previous Sea Bass, easily pulling against the drag, and it was still in the initial stage of its fight.
With Shi Tian’s assurance, Shen Che Ge felt more at ease. Without Shi Tian’s promise, he wouldn’t have felt secure fishing here. What if he hooked a big one and Shi Tian insisted on keeping it? Would he give it up or not?
Just as the first wave of struggle passed, Wang Ergou's car pulled up in front of the shop. He got out, clearly distinguishing his role from the lobster; one carried gear while the other went inside to weigh Live Shrimp. In just a couple of minutes, they had taken two Fishing Spots next to Shi Tian.
This fish was no small catch! Exhausted? Need a hand? The lobster chuckled as he held a fishing box.
The strength wasn’t from a Niu Gang Mackerel or a Sea Wolf or Bigeye Mullet. For five thousand yuan, the fish on the rod was yours; could you reel it in yourself? Glancing sideways at Shen Che Ge, Shi Tian turned his attention back to the lobster.
The fish on the rod weighed at least thirty pounds; it wasn’t a Niu Gang Mackerel, nor a Sea Wolf or Bigeye Mullet. It hadn’t been gilled yet, so it probably wasn’t a Sea Bass either. Shi Tian’s asking price was indeed quite reasonable.
