Chapter 121: Chapter 119: Another Match

Wang Erwen and Lin Yang weren’t very familiar with each other, so after today’s competition, they went their separate ways. Wang Feng took the other party back to the hotel, while Lin Yang planned to drive home on his own.

Lin Yang had wanted to invite him to dinner, especially after winning twenty thousand from him; it seemed only polite to treat him to a meal.

However, Wang Erwen’s apprentice secretly told him that Wang Erwen seemed a bit upset. They suggested waiting for another day to dine after they had cheered him up, as it was the first time they had seen their master lose so badly and he was definitely very downcast.

Thinking it inappropriate to rub salt into his wounds, Lin Yang had to see if another opportunity would arise.

Just as he left Qingshan Reservoir’s gate, Wang Jian Country gave him a call.

"Lin Yang, young bro, I heard you caught quite a few big Catfish and an Alligator Turtle today. Did you sell the Big Catfish, or did you take it home yourself? Sell them to me, I’ll send someone to pick them up. If you’ve already sold them, never mind."

At that moment, Lin Yang was also feeling dejected about this matter.

He replied, "Sorry, Brother Jian Guo, the Big Alligator Turtle was taken by the reservoir’s owner. He said I could take any other fish, but not the Alligator Turtle, and I released the other Catfish, only kept one big Hua Lian."

Even though today’s fishing at Qingshan Reservoir was arranged by Wang Feng for free through his connections, the reservoir’s owner was reluctant to oblige and wanted the Big Alligator Turtle. Lin Yang couldn’t do anything about it.

It wasn’t worth getting into a fight over an Alligator Turtle.

Lin Yang saw that Wang Erwen had released all his caught Catfish, so when leaving, he released his catches but kept just one big Hua Lian and the Alligator Turtle. However, upon exiting, the owner stated that except for the fish, nothing else could be taken, which greatly annoyed Lin Yang.

Although Alligator Turtle meat isn’t very tasty, a big one weighing about twenty to thirty kilograms is still quite valuable.

"Damn, they’re breaking the rules just like that?"

Wang Jian Country, extremely infuriated, said, "They promised free fishing with disposal of the catch at our discretion, and now they pull such tricks? A Big Alligator Turtle is worth thousands."

He paused, then continued, "I heard from Wang Feng that you and Master Wang have another competition tomorrow, right? Do this, just pay for fishing tomorrow, and I’ll buy whatever you catch, big or small. I’ll arrange someone to collect the fish. If he dares to stop them, I’ll have my guys throw him into the reservoir."

Lin Yang laughed, "Brother Jian Guo, no worries. I was planning to do that when I left."

An Alligator Turtle of his wasn’t so easily taken. He had already given the reservoir owner a break by releasing two to three hundred kilograms of Catfish as per their initial agreement.

Since the owner was being uncooperative, Lin Yang was determined to give him a tough time tomorrow.

Wang Jian Country: "Good lad, you’re really to my liking. Alright, it’s settled then. Don’t be afraid of causing trouble; I’ve got your back. Just focus on fishing!"

After hanging up, Lin Yang continued to drive home, resolute that he couldn’t hold back tomorrow, whether it was to beat Wang Erwen or to confront the reservoir owner. He had to catch more fish.

....

The next day.

Lin Yang arrived early, reaching Qingshan Reservoir by eight in the morning, and exchanged greetings with Wang Erwen and his group before he went straight to the owner.

"Two hundred per hour, sixteen hundred for eight hours. For two people, that’s thirty-two hundred, right?"

After scanning the QR code, Lin Yang prepared to pay.

The reservoir owner, all smiles, said, "No problem, but since you guys are new customers, I’ll give you a discount of two hundred. Just three thousand for the two of you."

Lin Yang glanced at him and said, "No, don’t worry about the discount. Just charge us what’s fair. The most important thing is to keep your word."

When he left yesterday, he had only taken one big Catfish and one Big Alligator Turtle, while the owner, unaware of their actual catch from yesterday, assumed they had caught just one or two fish all day.

Seeing that Lin Yang wasn’t accepting the discount, the reservoir owner didn’t say much and merrily pocketed the money.

"By the way, you can take the fish you catch, but you can’t take turtles or Alligator Turtles."

Such aquatic farm owners are usually busy and even if they occasionally check apps like Douyin, they wouldn’t really follow fishing activities, so he was unaware of who Lin Yang and Wang Erwen really were and assumed they were just two streamers who enjoyed fishing but never caught much.

Lin Yang grinned at the reservoir owner: "No problem, any turtles or Alligator Turtles I catch are yours."

Beside him, Wang Feng also looked displeased. After all, he had secured this reservoir through his boss’s connections, yet the owner turned out to be unreliable.

But he couldn’t entirely blame him. Given the few fishing spots for Catfish available in Jiangdong City, it was already challenging to find this place in such a short time, so not knowing the owner’s character was understandable.

Afterward, Lin Yang and Wang Erwen headed to the spot where they had fished the day before.

Wang Erwen: "Master Lin, let’s pick fishing spots farther apart today, not too close."

Having suffered a setback yesterday, he was determined not to repeat the same mistake today.

Lin Yang said, "That suits me just fine."

He intended to beat Wang Erwen, but not in a way that he couldn’t catch any fish like yesterday. Besides winning over him, he was also set on dealing harshly with the reservoir owner.

The best outcome would be for Wang Erwen to catch four to five hundred kilograms, while he himself caught eight to nine hundred kilograms.

After starting the live broadcast, as most people were at work so early in the day, there weren’t many viewers, only about a thousand.
