I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 170: The Terrified Old Liao

Chapter 170: Chapter 170: The Terrified Old Liao

"I think it’s fine for Teacher Ye to change fishing rods, but using such scary fishing bait..."

"How so?"

"Have you guys forgotten? Yesterday, Teacher Ye caught a giant python with a little rubber duck, and the day before that, he caught Cui Ruogou using a pack of Hardman as bait. If Teacher Ye switches to unconventional bait, I’m afraid he’s going to catch some absurd things!"

...

Indeed, that was the case.

A careful viewer’s comment in the live stream room actually reminded them.

In the last two days, when Teacher Ye caught absurd things, he wasn’t using normal fish.

At this moment, on the live stream room screen.

One could see that after Ye Chen set up his line, he took out a disposable plastic cup.

What was even more surprising was that he also took out a glass bottle.

Emblazoned on the glass bottle were a few bold characters... Jiangcheng Old Wine!

Sorghum liquor???

And it’s the particularly famous Jiangcheng Old Wine from Jiang City?

Such a maneuver left the viewers in the live stream room once again dumbfounded.

"Damn? Last time it was Hardman, this time Jiangcheng Old Wine?"

"Is Teacher Ye really fishing? Not trying to catch a drunkard, is he?"

"I’m already worried for those around the pond fishing after watching this; those who love alcohol better be alert, especially fans of Jiangcheng Old Wine, you might very well become Teacher Ye’s catch!"

"Haha, I’m dying of laughter. It really seems like Teacher Ye is planning on reeling in the boozers, right?"

"Old viewers know that after Ye Chen finishes fishing, he likes to have a drink with those old men. Now, it seems like those old men have been catching too much, so Ye Chen is planning to drag them into the water, huh?"

"Hahaha, I’m laughing so hard, I have a feeling, if it’s about fishing for other fishermen, Old Liao would definitely be the first one up. From what I’ve seen in Ye Chen’s live stream room, the unluckiest one, other than Cui Ruogou, is Old Liao!"

"You guys are being too ridiculous; I guess Teacher Ye is probably planning to use sorghum liquor as fishing bait mix?"

"Who uses sorghum liquor to mix bait? Never seen that before!"

"Indeed, but one thing is for sure, Teacher Ye is up to something again!"

...

At this moment.

Ye Chen’s actions left Liao Xuexue beside him utterly bewildered.

The other day, here fishing, he hung a pack of Hardman on the bait, which caught Cui Ruogou.

What’s he planning to do with alcohol this time?

Soon, Ye Chen’s next move provided an answer to Liao Xuexue, the viewers in the live stream room, and the surrounding internet celebrities and media.

Ye Chen wasn’t mixing bait with the sorghum liquor as the live stream viewers had speculated.

He took out a disposable paper cup and attached it to the fish hook.

Then he opened the bottle cap of Jiangcheng Old Wine.

He poured a full cup of the sorghum liquor into the paper cup.

Fish hook hanging a paper cup, paper cup filled with sorghum liquor.

After everything was ready, Ye Chen cast his rod.

With a ’thud’, the disposable paper cup filled with Jiangcheng Old Wine was thrown into the pond by Ye Chen.

It then gradually sank and disappeared from sight.

Finally, only a bobber was left erect on the water’s surface.

Liao Xuexue was stunned and couldn’t help but be wide-eyed and slack-jawed.

She looked at Ye Chen, then at the bobber on the water, and then picked up the bottle of sorghum liquor and sniffed it.

The next second, she furrowed her brow, and the confusion on her face deepened.

Indeed...

This was sorghum liquor.

Moreover, there’s only one distillery in Jiang City. Although not very well-known in Hua Country, it’s still quite a sizeable company locally.

And this bottle of Jiangcheng Old Wine was a product of the local distillery.

To tell the truth, the local liquor tastes quite alright, but the tobacco and alcohol industry requires time and advertising to gain traction.

So, sales are pretty average, but it’s quite favored locally in Jiang City.

Especially this Jiangcheng Old Wine that costs ten yuan a bottle is particularly popular in the area.

The reason why Liao Xuexue is so knowledgeable about white liquor...

Isn’t it because her grandpa loves drinking?

Old man Liao had also talked to her about this liquor before.

Once she confirmed it was real liquor, Liao Xuexue had a dumbfounded look on her face.

In the end, she couldn’t hold back, and curiously looked at Ye Chen: "You... you’re planning to use this for fishing?"

"Not fishing, baiting old man Liao."

Ye Chen’s response left Liao Xuexue with a helpless expression.

And the audience in the live stream room nearly died of laughter.

At the same time, it startled old man Liao, who was sitting nearby, almost falling headfirst into the fishpond...

You must understand, the day before yesterday when Ye Chen fished up Cui Ruogou.

Old man Liao not only witnessed the whole thing.

He even got involved in the end.

Back then when he saw Ye Chen hooking the Hadermen onto the fishing bait, he was utterly confused.

Finally, seeing Ye Chen dragging Cui Ruogou into the water to get his goods,

Old man Liao watched the entire process clearer than anyone else.

Cui Ruogou liked to smoke, and specifically enjoyed Hadermen cigarettes.

So, Ye Chen hung a pack of Hadermen on the hook, and really managed to fish Cui Ruogou up.

As for himself...

As far as old man Liao is concerned, there are two hobbies in his life he can’t give up.

The first and foremost, needless to say, is fishing.

And the second is drinking alcohol.

Happy, he’d have a small sip to get tipsy; unhappy, old man Liao would still have a small sip.

Before going to bed at night, have a drink; during holidays and festivals, have a drink.

And, coincidentally, his favorite drink

Is the local specialty of Jiang City, the Jiangcheng Old Wine.

This wine is of the aromatic type, with a smoothness that is simply indescribable upon entering the mouth.

At the same time, although others might not believe in Ye Chen’s mystical fishing technique,

These old men, including old man Liao, are absolutely convinced.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t possibly perform some kind of ritual at the shore before fishing with Ye Chen every single time.

Let alone carry an urn around with them all day!

So, watching Ye Chen toss a paper cup filled with Jiangcheng Old Wine into the water,

The impact on old man Liao was monumental!

What made old man Liao grind his teeth even more was that the damn kid didn’t even bother to conceal it.

He actually told his own granddaughter that he intended to fish him up!!

In such a situation, how could old man Liao not panic?

This damn kid...

Recently, he had been looking more agreeable in his eyes, and even as he was getting closer to his own granddaughter, he didn’t say much.

Now thinking about it, his kindness was taken for granted!

The more he thought about it, the angrier and more scared he became...

It must be because Ye Chen saw that he had caught several big fish while he hadn’t managed to fish up any.

So, he was angry and wanted to take revenge on him.

If he really ended up being dragged into the water by Ye Chen, not to mention anything else,

With quite a few fans of the kid nowadays, won’t he be losing face big time?
