Shi Tian felt pleased, and so did Shi Ye and the others. Upon hearing Shi Tian's words, the three exchanged knowing glances.
There were numbers, and there were more numbers; soon, all the other numbers would be accounted for! They had already discussed this on the way. Did they think they could be dismissed with just one Rod? It wouldn't be that easy. First, they would probe Shi Tian to see how many types of Boat Rods he had in hand, gather some information, and then figure out how to acquire a set!
The number was a bit too large; they had enough with just about that number! How about you help me get one with a smaller number? With the Rod inserted into the Stern, Air Force handed Shi Tian a cigarette.
The smaller numbers were even cheaper. Air Force thought this Rod's number was too big, which made it easier to resolve. He would give him a smaller one later, and this Rod could be gifted to Pingtou Ge—nothing would go to waste!
Ah! I’ll take this Rod back later and have them exchange it for a smaller one! If I could save a thousand or eight hundred, Shi Tian wouldn’t mind at all.
As soon as Shi Tian finished speaking, the three exchanged smiles again—this was settled! A swap was on the table, which meant they would have all sorts of numbers available!
Using a number for fishing Xiao Yu was indeed effective, but when encountering big fish, the numbers wouldn’t suffice. In the domestic market, at least a number below that would need to be prepared. In the Southern Hemisphere, rods around six or seven hundred would come into play; better to have a complete set!
As he reeled in the Rod, familiar stances of the three-legged stance emerged; Shi Tian’s heart raced with excitement!
When did these three start playing tricks like those old fellows? They had been too comfortable for too long and had fallen for it!
It was all his fault for spending too much time with Scallion Ginger Fishy; his intelligence had been dragged down!
Let’s not play with complete sets anymore! Right now, I’m only using one myself! How about this—I’ll get you another one; it should be enough! There’s no chance to escape now; he could only compromise!
If he could pull out three more Rods to settle them down, he would accept it. But letting him take out complete sets of Rods made him feel some pain; he could almost clear out his savings!
Who buys things without getting complete sets? Just let us know what materials you need for three sets later on; let Lu Ya handle it. As for money, this card has a million on it—if it’s not enough, just tell me later!
He patted Shi Tian on the shoulder and slipped a card into his pocket. Shi Ye chuckled; this was settled just like that!
Since they had already revealed their intentions, the three definitely wouldn’t let him off easily!
No wonder Air Force said there would be something today! It seemed he was exactly what they meant by "today." These three had probably been plotting against him for quite some time! They were just waiting to come back and extract information from him!
Looking down at the card in his pocket, Shi Tian pursed his lips. He had initially thought about tricking Shi Ye again, but now it seemed unnecessary; he had already been tricked himself!
With matters settled, the three didn’t linger with Shi Tian any longer. They jumped off the boat where the dock manager was already waiting.
Air Force took the form from the dock manager and casually signed it. When Shi Tian saw it, his eyelids twitched. He had initially thought about getting an Air Force-sized yacht once he had money, but now that thought was extinguished.
He had just felt pleased about receiving a million but seeing the form in Air Force's hand made him feel like a pauper!
Such a large yacht wasn’t something an ordinary person could afford. The fuel tank of the Air Force yacht couldn’t even be measured in liters anymore—each fill-up required fifty cubic meters of diesel costing over three hundred thousand. This was still cheaper than automotive diesel; one ton only cost seven thousand five hundred.
If automotive diesel were used instead, one tank would cost four hundred thousand. After cruising around at sea, a mid-range High-End Car would be lost in expenses—this was terrifying! He might as well save his money to buy candy for Kang Ziyu! Such high consumption items were beyond his reach!
He finally understood why the Ming Air Force wouldn’t let him pilot the Air Force anymore. It wasn’t just because the Air Force held their secrets; more importantly, they were worried he couldn’t afford the fuel!
Yesterday, as soon as the plane arrived in Chongqing, the Air Force contacted the dock. With so much fuel, it wasn’t something that could be sorted out quickly. After checking the water, ice, fuel, and electricity, the Air Force set sail. Shi Tian took over the controls but didn’t dare push the throttle too hard. Idling for an hour cost two to three hundred bucks in fuel, while full speed would burn three to four thousand bucks in an hour. Every time he pressed the throttle, it felt like a stab to his heart.
Where were they headed? Just circling around at sea and dropping a couple of lines! Seeing Shi Tian turn, the Air Force returned from the deck to the cabin passage.
“Stop turning; there’s still a mission!” he called out. “I’ll help you get Rod, and you help me fish. My request isn’t high—just catch forty or fifty Qing Cao Lian Yu from Xinyue Lake to bring back to my Small Artificial Lake. That’s what the old man specifically asked for!”
That day, he had been too busy flirting with Kang Ziyu and hadn’t caught many fish. Now there were only four or five Qing Cao Lian Yu floating in his Small Artificial Lake.
Could four or five fish lure out a Finless Porpoise? That was definitely impossible. Even forty or fifty fish would barely give them a chance to show themselves; Shi Tian thought the odds were slim! It was a pity that his Artificial Lake was a bit too small; if it were any bigger, he wouldn’t be able to keep them all!
Hearing that the old man specifically requested it, the Air Force immediately leaned toward the cockpit and asked, “Is the old man coming back? When will he return?”
