I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 242: The Domineering Wang Long

Chapter 242: Chapter 242: The Domineering Wang Long

Don’t even talk about your remote little fish pond, even some of the super large-scale ones rarely have such prices, right?

Three hours for five hundred bucks, that averages out to over a hundred an hour.

Are we here to fish or to pan for gold?

At that moment, everyone couldn’t help but stand outside and complain.

"I’m saying, Boss, isn’t your price a bit too steep?"

"Yeah, five hundred for three hours, why don’t you just go rob someone?"

"This price is indeed too high!"

"I’ve never seen such an expensive fee for a spot. I remember seeing on Quick Shake before that your place was three hundred for six hours, why the price hike?" Old Zhang made a face, complaining with some dissatisfaction.

The people weren’t just nitpicking, Wang Long’s pricing was indeed a bit too expensive.

Though these old men had pensions, most of it was held by their wives.

So with this price, forget about fishing for three hours, some of them couldn’t even afford to fish for one hour.

Who knew the fish pond’s owner Wang Long would sneer, his brows furrowed, as he gave everyone a glare.

Instantly, those noisy old men fell silent.

Indeed, Wang Long’s expression was too fierce.

It really gave off a vibe of intimidating someone so much they could become pregnant, making one shiver without feeling cold.

And Ye Chen, who stood at the entrance, also felt the price was a bit too unfair.

He frowned and turned towards Wang Long, who stood behind the iron gate, and said: "Boss Wang, this price is indeed a bit expensive, and..."

"Cut the ’ands,’ my fish pond has its price!" Wang Long interrupted Ye Chen, waving his hand with an obviously impatient expression.

Afterward, he continued: "My fish pond covers fifteen acres, well-situated, tranquil, with plenty of fishing spots, and none of the fish in my pond weigh less than ten pounds. We have bighead carp, silver carp, huge crucian carp, catfish, snakehead, and other big catches."

"Return a fish over twenty pounds, you get two hundred bucks; over thirty pounds, five hundred."

"Of course, the premise is that you have the skills to hook the big catches in my pond."

As Wang Long spoke, he pointed to one side inside the pond’s gate.

Everyone followed where Wang Long was pointing and gasped in astonishment.

"Holy mackerel! Are there too many broken fishing rods here or what?"

"No wonder it’s called ’Burst Pole Land,’ but this is indeed a bit exaggerated; there must be at least a hundred fishing rods, right?"

"Looking at these rods, you have every brand. Among them, there are some pretty good ones too!"

"The burst rate is exaggerated!"

The group of old men behind discussed amongst themselves, and even Ye Chen was a bit surprised.

After all, seeing those nearly mountainous piles of broken fishing rods, he truly felt this fish pond was out of the ordinary.

Maybe the fish in this pond were really as the owner described, none under ten pounds.

Or maybe Wang Long had done something to various aspects of the pond, resulting in such a high rate of rod breaking.

However, none of these mattered to Ye Chen; today, he was determined to get that box of ten-pound gold bars at the bottom of the fish pond.

"Master Ye, what should we do..."

Old Liao saw Ye Chen standing still without speaking, so he approached and asked softly in his ear.

Ye Chen nodded, then looking at Wang Long in front of him, he began: "Well, I am a streamer with so many fans after all. Fishing here could let over a million people learn about your fish pond, giving it better promotion..."

"Then what?" Wang Long raised his eyebrow, looking at Ye Chen with a mocking face.

Ye Chen shrugged: "Let’s not worry about returning fish. If you waive our group’s fee for the spot, how about that?"

The exorbitant fee for the spot was not something Ye Chen cared about, but he still had to fight for these old men behind him.

Also, his proposal was reasonable; he believed the slick Boss Wang had no reason to refuse him.

Firstly, as a streamer with forty million fans and the highest number in the fishing field.

Just taking on advertisements, one event’s fees would be at least a hundred to two hundred thousand.

Secondly, this place had quite a gimmick, called ’Burst Pole Land.’

Once Ye Chen started live streaming here, if there really were rods snapping around him, it might just give the pond a bit of fame.

Being able to snap rods meant there had to be huge catches in the pond for sure.

Most importantly, Ye Chen was determined to fish out that box of ten-pound gold bars from the pond.

When that happened, it was bound to hit the trending lists, no need to even think about it.

With the traffic, even if the pond’s location was a bit remote, anglers would definitely keep coming in droves.

Just as Ye Chen thought Wang Long would certainly agree to his terms.

Who would have expected, Wang Long revealed a disdainful smile: "I didn’t beg you to come over and promote it, did I?"

"Long story short, for twenty-two people to fish for three hours, the total fee for the spots is eleven thousand bucks. If you’re fishing, then fish; if not, please take your people and leave!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen’s eye twitched violently.

He hadn’t expected Wang Long to refuse him face like this.

No matter how you put it, he was still the number one fish streaming influencer online, right?

And for those old men hearing Wang Long’s words, it was quite infuriating but they didn’t dare to speak up.

In any other pond, those owners would be begging Ye Chen to come fish, right?

Not like Boss Wang here, Ye Chen had even offered to promote him for free.

But still, you disrespect him like this...

However, faced with Wang Long, these old men only dared to think about it in their hearts.

After all, Wang Long was not someone they dared to offend.

Even if the Jiang City River crew’s old men didn’t dare to mess with him, that didn’t mean the audience in the live stream room didn’t dare to mess with him.

At this moment, since Ye Chen had started his stream for a bit, more viewers had come into the live stream room.

Now, the number of online viewers in Ye Chen’s live stream room had reached over three hundred thousand and was still growing.

With the dazzling array of gifts and a slew of comments,

The audience expressed their opinions about this pretentious boss in the comments.

"OMG, that’s outrageous, looks like Master Ye hasn’t contacted this fish pond’s owner beforehand? Is this fish pond’s owner such a big shot? To not even give face to Master Ye?"
