Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Fishing by the Yangliu River Bank

Not only a free lunch, but also free Hua cigarettes—who wouldn’t be happy about that?

"Nice! The Director of Education is so generous!"

After the Director of Education left, these old men turned their attention to Ye Chen.

"Teacher Ye, you’ve still got the clout. We’ve got a slice of your good fortune again!"

"Yeah, fishing with Teacher Ye, you can never lose out!"

"Teacher Ye, with you here, our little Jiang City River team really does have a lot of perks!"

"To tell you the truth, I’ve wanted to come to Yangliu River for a long time. The fish bite here has always been great!"

"That’s right, the Yangliu River is all big fish—big silver carp, green fish, bighead carp and so on. The weight of the big fish is all over ten pounds!"

"Looking at so many fishermen across the way, we’ve got to hurry up too. We can’t let them catch the big ones before us!"

If you talk about the agonies of fishermen, nothing is worse than watching others catch fish before you do.

But the most unbearable thing.

Seeing people you compete with catch a giant, while you return empty-handed, is definitely the worst.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen smiled and, after joking with these old men, everyone began looking for a spot to fish.

Below this small hillside, there is a shallow sandbar.

The area of the sandbar is not small, roughly a hundred meters long.

Naturally, you can’t fish from on top of this small hillside.

Not to mention this hill is too far from the river and is sloped, it’s just not possible to fish there.

Ye Chen parked the tricycle under the men’s dormitory building, and these old men also parked their electric scooters.

Then, everyone took their fishing gear and hurriedly walked down the slope to the sandbar below.

After arriving at the sandbar, Ye Chen went to a fishing spot on the sandbar as directed by the Director of Education.

This spot was marked, so it was easy to find.

Since the old men benefited from Ye Chen’s presence today, they also spontaneously did not compete with Ye Chen for the so-called "best fishing spot."

Ye Chen took his stool and sat by the sandbar, five or six meters in front of him was the water of the Yangliu River.

So, this spot was indeed quite good.

He placed all the necessary fishing gear on the ground and also set up a sun umbrella.

The old men around did the same, and for a moment, their movements were quite coordinated.

What terrified the fishermen on the opposite bank, however.

Was that these people actually brought so many urns, placed beside their stools.

The shining "Condolences" character on the urns was particularly bright under the sunlight.

At the same time, sitting across the river, those fishermen could see that a young man’s sun umbrella handle had two banners hanging, one on each side.

All fishing guns and thunder surrendered, selflessly serving the people!

Catch a giant python, ensuring peace and tranquility!

These two banners with gold letters on a red background were particularly noticeable.

At the same time, Ye Chen’s signature ritual also began.

He took out incense, joss paper, and a calligraphy brush, and started chanting by the shore.

"Dan Zhu Kou Shen, spit out the foul and dispel the miasma."

"Tongue God Zheng Lun, pass the decree to nourish the spirit."

"Luo Qianchi God, Evil Repelling,

"Throat God Hu Ben, Qi God Leading Saliva."

"Mind essence and primal spirit, grant me access to truth."

"Refining liquid with the spirit, Dao Qi exists eternally."

"Hurry, hurry, as if an imperial edict! One fish comes, a hundred, a thousand, all shall come!"

This scene thoroughly confused the group of anglers on the opposite bank.

Because it wasn’t just the young man muttering his incantations; the twenty or so elderly men beside him were also following his movements in unison.

By the time Ye Chen’s pre-fishing ritual was over, the group on the opposite bank suddenly came to their senses.

At the same time, some sharp-eyed individuals immediately recognized Ye Chen’s identity.

Among the anglers on the opposite bank, someone exclaimed in shock.

"Holy crap!"

"Stand up, everyone, it’s Teacher Ye across the river!!!!!!"

...

After the ritual, Ye Chen began assembling his fishing rod.

Today he was using a seven-meter-two fishing rod, paired with a nylon line.

The main line was a number 6, the leader line was 4.5, and the hook was a number 8.

As for preparing the bait, that was being handled by Liao Xuexue.

Liao Xuexue first set up Ye Chen’s phone stand, opened the live stream, directly facing both Ye Chen and Yangliu River.

Then, she began preparing the bait at the riverside.

Under Ye Chen’s guidance over the past few days, the smart Liao Xuexue had become adept at bait preparation.

As soon as the live stream was opened, tens of thousands of viewers flooded into the live stream room, and the number of viewers kept increasing.

Gifts and comments were also streaming by rapidly.

"Holy moly, Teacher Ye is fishing today at Yangliu River right behind our university!"

"Hahaha, I finally caught Teacher Ye’s live stream, Teacher Ye is late today, only starting the stream at 7:10!"

"Teacher Ye, I watched your stream yesterday, and I was truly moved, it’s so rare to find such positive streamers like you nowadays!"

"Teacher Ye is definitely a moral model, confirmed! Other streamers only think about how to make money, but Teacher Ye regards wealth as if it were dung!"

"What kind of fish will Teacher Ye catch today???"

"Will Teacher Ye catch a fish? That’s a joke! You must be a new viewer, you should ask, what will Teacher Ye manage to fish out today?"

"Haha, I can’t stop laughing, fam, indeed, Teacher Ye probably won’t catch a single fish today!"

"That’s not necessarily true, I’m a local from Jiang City, the fish situation in Yangliu River has always been good, even better than our local Jiang City River, there are a lot of big fish here, like big carps, bass, grass carps, silver carps..."

"That has nothing to do with Teacher Ye, hahaha, when Teacher Ye catches a fish, that would be ridiculous!"

At the same time, an account ID ’Heavenly Origin Deng Long’ also entered the live stream room.

It was none other than Teacher Deng Long!

With a splendid entrance effect, Deng Long also entered the live stream room.

Viewers got even more excited when they saw Hua Country’s Fishing King Deng Long entering the live stream room.

"Never imagined Teacher Deng Long would get up so early to watch Ye Chen’s live stream, this is outrageous."

"Yesterday, Teacher Deng Long said he particularly enjoys watching Ye Chen’s live streams!"

"For real, watching Teacher Ye’s live streams is just too hilarious, too stress-relieving!"

"I must say, Teacher Ye’s streams really do relieve stress; we workers just like to watch for fun, don’t we?"

"I am an angler, but compared to those technical streamers, I prefer watching Teacher Ye’s entertaining live streams!"

As for the discussions in the live stream room, Ye Chen didn’t pay much attention.

Right now his follower count had reached over forty million, and every time he started streaming, at the very least there would be several hundred thousand viewers, with over a million not being uncommon at peak times.
