Chapter 146: Chapter 127: The Rare Treasure Fish_4

As Lin Yang took a sip from his cup, he almost spit out his tea when he heard the price.

A bead as plain as a rock, selling for 280,000?

Seeing his expression, Mr. Xia thought the price he offered didn’t meet Lin’s expectation, so with a pleasing tone, he added, "Lin Xiao You, your item is indeed rare, but the condition of this bead is really poor. There are only a handful of collectors, I can only add twenty thousand to round it up. Any more would exceed my budget, and what I’ve offered already surpasses what many collectors would consider, you see..."

On hearing the price of 300,000, Lin found it far exceeded his expectations.

He hadn’t held much hope for making this deal when he arrived, considering the item was barely more than a decent-looking rock to him, and to get such an unexpectedly high price was surprising.

After all, this item was merely a quirky indulgence; to most people it was just a rock, but to a select few, it was a treasure.

Since it was all unexpected fortune anyway, now that he had a suitable buyer, Lin naturally planned to sell.

As for what Mr. Xia would do with the bead, whether he intended to keep it or sell it, that was none of his business, after all, the man had his connections and whatever higher price he fetched didn’t concern Lin.

With this thought, Lin nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Xia, let’s make a deal at that price."

Seeing his agreement, Mr. Xia’s face lit up with joy, obviously pleased to acquire something he liked at a fair price.

"Then my thanks to you, Lin Xiao You, for indulging an old man’s passion."

Mr. Xia said, and then gave Lin a bow of thanks with his hands clasped together.

"Xiao Xue, ask the waiter to serve the dishes, today I intend to drink with Lin Xiao You until we are completely merry."

Now that they had agreed on the price, both parties were overjoyed, and soon a table full of fine drinks and dishes was served.

After three rounds of drinks and five courses of dishes...

Mr. Xia then said to Lin, "Lin Xiao You, I heard from Xiao Xue that you are quite the fisherman?"

Lin humbly replied, "Not really, I just enjoy fishing."

"You’re being too modest. We saw with our own eyes you landing that big fish last time."

He finished speaking and looked at his granddaughter, "Xiao Xue, didn’t you say there’s some kind of BMW fishing competition at Taihu these days? Would Lin Xiao You be interested?"

"A BMW fishing competition?"

Lin looked puzzled at Xia Xiaoxue, his interest in fishing indeed piqued at the mention of it.

At this, Xia Xiaoxue also nodded and said, "Yes, I was actually going to ask if you were interested. I went to Taihu this morning to register for the fishing competition."

"Could you explain more about it?"

Xia Xiaoxue: "In Suzhou, close to Taihu, there’s a fishing-themed leisure resort that just opened recently, so they are hosting a big fishing competition, and registration ends today at six in the evening."

"What kind of fish are available there, and do you know the rewards?" Lin continued to ask.

"As for the fish, it’s a mix in the Big Fish Pond with Carp, Bream, Grass Carp, and Sturgeon, all weighing tens of pounds. The limit is an eight-meter pole, no Losing Hand Ropes allowed, and only hook catches count for scoring.

I’ve been there a few times; the water area is quite large with an authentic wild fishing environment. The density of big fish in Big Objects Garden is quite satisfying, quite thrilling to fish at."
