Shen Zixi saw Xue Chen catching big fish one after another, but she couldn't catch any, so she had no interest in fishing. She simply sat aside and watched Xue Chen fishing with her arm propped up on her gills.
Soon, she realized that her decision was very correct. Watching Xue Chen fish was more interesting and exciting than fishing by herself.
Xue Chen seemed to have divine help. He could often catch a fish in less than ten minutes after setting the hook. What was also incredible was that the fish he caught every time were quite big, and there were basically no small fish!
While Chen Suyuan was waiting for the fish to bite the hook, he also looked at Xue Chen and the direction from time to time. When he saw Xue Chen catching fish one after another, he was a little confused.
As time went by, the sun in the sky moved slowly. Several people arrived at eight o'clock in the morning. When it was past eleven o'clock, Shen Wanjun stood up and said to Chen Suyuan: "Mr. Chen, let's take care of the fish." , then go have some food, rest for a while, and wait until the sun sets a little before fishing again.”
Chen Suyuan nodded and agreed. When he stood up, he put away the fishhook in the water. He put away the fishhook. When he looked up, he happened to see Xue Chen catching another fish, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Shen Wanjun couldn't help but sigh: "Xue Chen's luck is so good. Now I wonder if someone under the water specially hung the fish on his hook. How come there happens to be a fish nearby every time he sets the hook. "
On this side, Shen Zixi's pretty face turned red with excitement. She looked at the fish that had almost filled a fishing box and counted them with her fingers. She almost jumped up with joy, gasped and exclaimed: "Xue Chen, this is the tenth fish you have caught!"
Ten items?
Chen Suyuan and Shen Wanjun, who came over, were slightly surprised and stunned. This number was a bit exaggerated, because they didn't catch ten fish together, but caught five and two fish respectively.
Chen Suyuan walked over with his hands behind his back. When he got closer, he took a look into the fishing box. When he saw that the fishing box was already filled with fish, his eyelids jumped. It was obvious that there were not only more fish but also heavier ones than what he had caught. .
Although he caught a rare ten-pound bighead carp, Xue Chen couldn't handle the large number of fish he caught, and the average size was about three or four pounds. Together, they were definitely heavier than the one he caught. As for how much heavier it was, Then you need to weigh it.
"Xue Chen, are you going to sell the fish you caught here or take it back?" Shen Wanjun asked.
"Sell it, there's no place to put it back, and you can't eat so much." Xue Chen thought for a while and said.
"Well, that's just right. I have a fish dealer collecting fish around the lotus pond on my phone. I asked him to come over and take the fish away. He also weighed the fish you and Mr. Chen caught. Then we went to eat and rest. ." Shen Wanjun walked aside to make a phone call.
Shen Zixi blinked her smiling eyes and said, "Mr. Chen, I think the fish Xue Chen caught this morning may be twice as many as yours."
"Maybe, we'll find out soon." Chen Suyuan smiled, but his smile was a bit unnatural.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a beard on his chin approached, and he was led by a subordinate in blue overalls who was carrying a large bucket and a steel scale in his hands. He was familiar with Shen Wanjun and Chen Suyuan. He said hello: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Chen, how was your harvest today?"
"It's not bad. Mr. Chen caught a ten-pound bighead carp today." Shen Wanjun said.
"Really? That's really good luck. Mr. Chen is really strong and powerful. I admire him. Not many people in this lotus pond have caught a fish weighing more than ten kilograms in a year. But at your age, he is definitely the only one." One serving." The bearded fishmonger raised his thumb.
When he arrived at Chen Suyuan's fishing box, the bearded fishmonger took a look at the big bighead carp in the box and nodded affirmatively: "It must be ten pounds."
Next, the bearded fishmonger weighed the five fish caught by Chen Suyuan respectively to calculate the price. The bighead carp alone weighed ten kilograms and nine taels, and together with the other five, the total was twenty-one pounds. catty!
The remaining four fish were only sold for more than 200 yuan, but the ten-pound bighead carp was very rare and was wild, so it was sold for 500 yuan.
After weighing Chen Suyuan's fish, he came to Xue Chen's fishing box. When he saw that the fishing box was packed with fish, the bearded fishmonger looked at Xue Chen and blurted out: "You are alone this morning. Fishing?”
After getting an affirmative answer, the bearded fishmonger looked at the fat fish in the box and was secretly speechless. He thought to himself that this person must be a master of fishing. Not only did he catch so many fish, but they were all so big. Awesome!
Catching a big fish weighing ten kilograms requires very good luck, and strength is only a small part of it. But catching ten fish, all weighing three to four kilograms, requires strength.
The fishmonger and his men were very skillful in their actions. They quickly classified and weighed the fish in the box, and then gave the price, which was more than one thousand yuan.
None of the people present cared about the price, but more about the weight.
When Xue Chen heard that the total weight of the ten fish was forty-one pounds, Xue Chen felt relieved and let out a long sigh of relief.
After the bearded fishmonger thanked the four people, he and his assistant carried away the fish in a plastic bucket.
The expressions of father and mother Shen Wanjun and Shen Zixi also became a little strange, and they looked at Chen Suyuan.
"Forty-one pounds..." Although Chen Suyuan looked normal, his heart was shaken.
He promised Xue Chen that as long as he caught a fish that was twice his weight today, he would participate in the treasure appraisal activity. In the morning, he was only one kilogram short of actually reaching twice the weight. What's more, he was lucky enough to catch a ten kilogram fish. The heavy bighead carp, if not for this bighead carp, would have been four times as big...
"Mr. Chen, now Xue Chen is only one pound away, and has twice as much as you." Shen Zixi said with a smile.
Chen Suyuan nodded, then looked at Xue Chen, and asked with some confusion: "Xiao Xue, tell the truth, is this really your first time fishing in the past few years?"
"Mr. Chen, of course I'm not telling lies. This is really my first time fishing in the past few years. If you don't believe me, my fishing rods and fishing tackle are all new. I just borrowed them from a friend of mine yesterday." Chen spread his hands and said truthfully.
Shen Wanjun smiled at the right time and said: "Mr. Chen, I think God is helping Xue Chen. This is asking you to agree to Xue Chen's invitation. I don't think there is any need to compete this afternoon."
"Okay." Chen Suyuan let out a long breath, with a wry smile on his face, and waved his hand, "I think that's the case, otherwise it doesn't make sense. In this case, Xiao Xue, then I agree to you and go to participate in your company's planning Treasure Appraisal Program.”
Xue Chen was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you, Mr. Chen."
"Haha, don't thank me, just thank God. I have never met a fisherman as lucky as you in my life. It's really strange." Chen Suyuan couldn't help but shook his head again, feeling incredible.
Thank God? Xue Chen secretly thought, if it's not God's turn to thank him, he should be grateful to the ancient jade in his arms. If it weren't for the ability of the ancient jade to bring his eyes, it would be a problem to catch a few fish, let alone win against Chen Suyuan .
The four of them simply packed up their fishing gear and put it back in the car, and then ate together at a nearby restaurant. Two of the dishes were made from the two unsold fish caught by Shen Wanjun, one braised carp, one Crucian carp soup is very delicious.
After dinner, the sun was rising outside. Chen Suyuan and Shen Wanjun went to a nearby chess and card room to play chess. Xue Chen and Shen Zixi took a walk to the lake.
"The water is so clear, but it's a pity that there are patrols and people are not allowed to enter the water, otherwise they would have brought swimsuits over." Looking at the sparkling clear lake, Shen Zixi sighed.
Xue Chen looked at Shen Zixi who was looking intoxicated in the wind, and couldn't help but imagine her stretching her waist in the water wearing a swimsuit, secretly thinking that it must be very eye-catching, if it is a bikini, then...
"Xue Chen, what are you thinking about?" Shen Zixi turned her head and saw Xue Chen looking at her with squinted eyes, and asked suspiciously.
Xue Chen woke up from his charming imagination, lowered his head and coughed lightly, and said: "I was thinking... If Zi Xi goes into the water wearing a swimsuit, I'm afraid no one will be able to concentrate on the shore, ranging from an eighty-year-old man to a ten-year-old child. When you go fishing, everyone has to keep an eye on you."
"What will I do if you don't fish?" Shen Zixi said angrily, with a slight blush on her face.
"Haha, you would think you saw a mermaid." Xue Chen said with a smile.
"You're talking nonsense again. Mermaids can eat people in Western mythology. I don't eat people." Shen Zixi's eyes turned and she faced the direction of the lake. She kicked a small stone away and fell into the lake with a pop. sound.
At this time, Shen Wanjun's loud voice came from not far away: "Zixi, Xiaochen, what are you two talking about..."
When the sun became milder, the four people set up fishing rods on the shore again. Because Chen Suyuan had agreed to participate in the activities planned by the company, Xue Chen no longer used perspective to look for fish in the water.
In more than two hours, Xue Chen didn't catch a single fish. This made the other three people secretly amazed. They thought that it was too strange that they caught one fish after another in the morning and then couldn't catch any in the afternoon. .
When it was almost time to leave, Xue Chen looked at the empty fishing box and suddenly thought that he should catch two or three more fish. He borrowed Wang Dong's fishing gear and had to bring him two fish back and get another one for Qi Yan. Made it for dinner.
Just as he thought, Xue Chen started to look for big fish in the water with ease. His eyes were swimming in the distorted light, and suddenly a ball of mud rose up from the bottom of the water about ten meters away from his sight, as if it was stirred by a big fish.
His eyes quickly passed through, and he saw a big fish, a big blue-black grass carp weighing twenty kilograms. But what made him depressed was that the big grass carp swam quickly towards the depths of the lake and disappeared. Lost traces.
"pity."
Xue Chen shook his head and retracted his gaze, intending to look in other directions, but just when he changed the direction of his gaze, suddenly an unusual glimmer of light flashed across the bottom of the river where the mud had just been rolled up. (To be continued. )
