“In 2 hours, I’ll be able to catch a giant creature that weighs more than 60 kilograms,” Ye Chen said after some thought. “If I don’t manage to catch one, not only will our previous bet be void, but I’ll also give you the carbon fiber fishing rod. What do you think?”
“F*ck! A giant that weighs more than 60 kilograms? You must be joking.” Mr. Liao’s eyes were burning.
Licking his lips, Mr. Liao asked, “What if you manage to catch one?”
Ye Chen scratched his head and said, “Let me think… Every time I fish, I have to make a bait container, unpack my fishing gear, and prepare live bait. It’s quite tiring. If I manage to catch it, you’ll have your granddaughter be my assistant for a week.”
“That…” Mr. Liao was hesitating.
“F*ck!” After recovering from his initial shock, Mr. Liao grew furious. “I’ve long seen through your little scheme!”
He continued, “You’re really insatiable! It’s fine if you want my granddaughter’s number, but now you want her to be your assistant? Even I don’t get that treatment. You can dream on!”
Ye Chen looked at the indignant Mr. Liao and did not know what to say for a moment.
However, the next second, Mr. Liao waved his hand. “Add more money to the bet!”
Seeing Ye Chen’s confused face, Mr. Liao coughed awkwardly and explained, “No, I mean… You have to add another fishing rod! In addition to the carbon fiber fishing rod, you’ll bet your peach wood fishing rod that you’ve blessed!”
The corner of Ye Chen’s eyes twitched. He pretended to hesitate and finally nodded. “All right!”
Standing up, Mr. Liao laughed so hard that he could not close his mouth. “Hahaha. Ye Chen, you’re going to fail this time!”
He continued, “Did you all hear that? Mr. Ye wants to bet with me again. He said that he can fish up a giant creature that weighs more than 60 kilograms in 2 hours!”
It was as if with the Skunked King Ye Chen around, the fishing site would always be eventful.
The group of fishing pros around them immediately burst into laughter, completely throwing their previous fear to the back of their heads.
“As the saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Mr. Liao, you’re willing to risk your granddaughter for the fishing rod?”
“Mr. Liao, you have to be careful. Didn’t Mr. Ye’s fishing rod just get consecrated? He might be able to catch a black carp that weighs over 60 kilograms!”
“Haha, Mr. Liao, if you end up having to give your granddaughter up to him, I’m afraid your intestines will turn green with regret.”
…
Ye Chen scoffed at the crowd’s ridicule.
Despite their words, no one in the crowd believed that Ye Chen could catch a giant creature that weighed more than 60 kilograms.
“We’ll see what happens in 2 hours!” mused Ye Chen. “I’ll definitely leave them dumbfounded then.”
In order to fish a giant over 60 kilograms, Ye Chen had especially used a 7.2-meter-long fishing rod. At the same time, he had matched it with the no. 3 fishing line, which was extremely resistant to pressure, and the no. 12 ultra-big fishing hook.
Of course, Ye Chen did not forget to use rooster blood as fishing bait.
After preparing everything, he hung up the bait and threw the rod under the watch of the fishing pros by the river and the viewers in the live stream room.
“Let’s get it!”
Although the system notification said that it would take 1 hour and 50 minutes to catch a giant creature, with the system, his ability to ward off evil spirits, and his blessed fishing rod, Ye Chen believed that he would be able to reap a rich harvest.
At the very least, he should be able to catch 7 or 8 fish before he caught a giant creature.
While he was staring at the screen, Ye Chen glanced at his phone and saw that almost all the comments in the comments section in the live stream room were ridiculing him.
However, Ye Chen noticed that the number of people on his live stream had increased from around 100 to 600 or 700.
“I heard that the streamer just got a direct bite by a rotten fish. Why didn’t he hurry up and run away with the bucket? He’s simply too reckless!”
“How is he a fisherman? I’m afraid he’s a magic arts priest!
“Mr. Ye, the video of you casting a spell by the river will definitely go viral tomorrow. Hahaha!”
“I don’t think the footage will be popular if we just do it by the river. But if Mr. Ye can really catch a giant over 60 kilograms, it’ll definitely be popular!”
“Mr. Ye, you’re too arrogant. You haven’t even caught a fry before, and you’re challenging to catch a giant that weighs over 60 kilograms this time? ”
“Mr. Ye, there’s a fishing competition. Won’t a big shot like you participate in it?”
“I think Mr. Ye must go. After all, there are many famous fishing enthusiasts in this wild fishing competition. If Mr. Ye goes, he’ll definitely crush them.”
“I can’t stand it anymore. Mr. Ye just didn’t catch any fish today and was always skunked before, right? Even if you don’t like the stream content, don’t leave. Flame him and it’ll be over!”
…
Ye Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw the comments section in the live stream room.
He pouted and said sternly, “Who’s Skunked King? I’m not one. Didn’t I just catch a fish?”
The viewers in the live stream room were speechless.
“What fish? That was rotten fish. Stinky, dead fish, okay?”
“How is a rotten fish considered a catch? If a rotten fish is considered a fish, you might as well buy two dried salted fish and hang them on your fishing rod!”
“Give me a live fish, Mr. Ye Chen.”
“All right, that rotten fish doesn’t count!” Ye Chen pursed his lips. “In 2 hours, open your eyes wide. I’ll show you what a real giant is. Not only will it weigh more than 60 kilograms, but its value is also immense.”
After saying that, Ye Chen gestured a 6 to the phone’s camera.
“It’s worth more than 6?”
“6? The commenter above, you’re overestimating Mr. Ye. It’s more like 0.1 times of that!”
“Mr. Ye is really getting smug. Hahaha!”
Ye Chen rolled his eyes at the camera and said in disdain, “You guys are really ignorant. I meant the value is at least 6 figures!”
Mr. Liao fell into deep thought after hearing Ye Chen’s words.
It was a giant catch that weighed more than 60 kilograms, and its value was actually more than 6 figures.
If it was a 6-figure sum, the minimum value would be 100,000.
What kind of giant creature was that? How could its value be counted in the hundreds of thousands?
Mr. Liao felt a chill in his heart when he saw the urn at Ye Chen’s feet.
But soon, his fishing float in the distance moved.
Mr. Liao shouted dizzily, “There’s a bite!”
After that, he focused his attention on his fishing rod.
…
Mr. Liao did not know if it was an illusion or if it really had something to do with Ye Chen’s way of doing things. But that night, the fish harvest by the river in Jiang City was especially good.
The old men, who usually could only catch a few small carps, occasionally caught grass carps that weighed several kilograms. They enjoyed the excitement of putting great effort into reeling in the fish.
