Chapter 630 - 630 617 Billionaire

630: Chapter 617: Billionaire 630: Chapter 617: Billionaire Yue Feng grinned and casually said, “It’s not rocket science, just needs a bit of attention to detail when bottom fishing!”

“When I first tried slow shaking iron plate as a fishing method, it was Brother Gu who taught me hands-on.

Speaking of skills, he’s truly the expert!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingtian immediately laughed and shook his head, “Yue Feng my brother, this is mutual flattery at work.

With your performance just now, if it were me handling the fish, I would definitely lose too!

I can’t make out the subtle differences in force coming from the lure!”

“Hahaha, you’re being modest.

Let’s not dwell on this, shall we continue fishing for marbled rockfish?” Yue Feng didn’t linger on the topic and switched to a new one instead.

“What about you, Lawrence?” Gu Qingtian passed the decision to Lawrence.

The white-haired old man hesitated a bit and said, “You can catch marbled rockfish anywhere.

If there’s no other issue, why don’t we go to your big marlin fishing spot?

Catching a big marlin means the water should be much deeper.

I’d like to try my luck there!”

Gu Qingtian said, “Okay, let’s weigh anchor and try our luck there!”

Once the fishing spot was finalized, Lawrence didn’t return to his own yacht but instead notified his captain, and the two boats headed to Gu Qingtian’s secret fishing spot.

During the journey, with nothing much to do, Lawrence and Gu Qingtian went back to the cabin to catch up.

Yue Feng didn’t join in, choosing instead to stand on the deck with Doll and Su Cheng, enjoying the sea breeze and stargazing.

Doll, “Fengfeng, was everything you told that Lawrence guy true?

Can you actually feel the difference at the bottom with the lure?

I can’t feel anything at all!”

Yue Feng grinned and laughed, “The rod tip is quite flexible, and if the fishing line matches well, you can feel it a bit.

Mainly, it’s about sensing if it’s snagged on the bottom or if there are other obstacles!

I didn’t tell that old man these details!”

“Haha, I knew it sounded too mystical!

So, you were pulling his leg!

I also recorded the video of you guys fishing, but not with a drone, so the quality is a bit low.

Should we post a short video clip when we get back?

It could also be considered as bringing glory to our country!”

Yue Feng: “Sure, let’s get his consent and then share it in the video clip!”

Su Cheng brought over some bottles of water from the cabin, handing them to Yue Feng and Doll, then said thoughtfully, “This American, I think I’ve seen his photo somewhere before, but I can’t quite remember where!”

“That’s unlikely, you haven’t worked at a multinational company.

It’s apples and oranges, how could you have seen him?

Maybe you’re mixing him up with someone else!”

Yue Feng casually said, “To me, all white Americans sort of look the same!

But I vaguely remember Brother Gu mentioning that he’s involved in ocean freight business!

He owns quite a substantial enterprise.”

“Ben Lawrence!

I remember now, he’s a giant in the ocean freight business, my previous company had overseas freight dealings with him!!

This man is a billionaire, with industries and connections almost all over the world!!” Su Cheng slapped her forehead as she recalled the name.

Hearing the term billionaire, Yue Feng felt a stir of awe, though he had his own achievements, there was still a long way to go before reaching the billionaire status.

No wonder Brother Gu was always so eager to please this impressive old man.

Doll stuck out her tongue, “A billionaire of such stature still finding time to fish, that’s indeed noteworthy!

Listening to him, he seems really passionate about this sport.

Fengfeng, getting to know him could even expand your business opportunities!”

Yue Feng nodded, “I’ll do my best!”

About an hour later, the yacht arrived near the previous fishing spot.

However, to Yue Feng’s surprise, not far from there, a fishing boat was already stationed.

“Look, there’s a night fishing boat over there!” Wawa pointed to a boat in the distance.

Yue Feng replied, “Let Brother Gu handle it.

This area isn’t private property; others might just happen to come here to fish!

The place is big, and we only have a few boats; it won’t make any difference!”

That said, having another boat at his fishing spot always made Yue Feng feel as if an unwanted guest had entered his vegetable garden.

Soon, Brother Gu and Lawrence came out of the cabin side by side.

The boatman A Dong had already informed him of the situation.

“It’s a local fisherman’s boat.

They might have heard about my catching the big marlin!” Gu Qingtian said with certainty after taking a few looks at the other fishing boat.

“Does it affect us in any way?” Yue Feng asked.

“In principle, it doesn’t.

But if we catch something rare or government-protected, we need to be careful not to push our luck!

These locals take their fishery resources seriously, and getting reported could lead to penalties!”

Lawrence agreed, “Gu is right.

Originally, the captain of my yacht was a local.

Once, when we caught a particularly bright-colored Su Mei fish, he wanted to keep it in the aquarium at the villa, but the guy strongly opposed it.

Eventually, we released the fish and narrowly avoided having our fishing license in Palau revoked!

But now, things are much better.

I replaced the captain with an American immigrant.

I fired that stubborn guy!”

Yue Feng couldn’t really chime in on such anecdotes, so he just nodded and continued, “Shall we drop anchor and start fishing?”

“Yes!

It doesn’t affect our fishing!

There have been times when five or six boats were around at the same time!”

With that confirmation, Yue Feng began selecting the fishing equipment he was comfortable using.

The Sea King Card still had over forty minutes left, and Yue Feng didn’t want to waste it so easily.

Choosing a more suitable fishing method to catch bigger fish was now his main concern.

Wanting to impress Lawrence, Yue Feng didn’t hesitate to choose the heavy-duty bottom fishing equipment!

He picked the same rod he used last time he caught a marlin, and he used the largest fishing reel available.

However, this time Yue Feng didn’t use the lure he had hung previously.

Instead, he craftily picked the smallest grouper that he had caught earlier from the cooler.

“Fengfeng, what are you doing?

Eating sashimi late at night?

The knives are in the kitchen.

Besides, we don’t even know how to slice it!” Wawa saw Yue Feng holding a fish and was full of question marks.

Yue Feng grinned and said, “This isn’t for us to eat.

I’m going to take some fresh fish meat and hang it on the hook to try our luck!”

“Oh, oh!

Got it!

No more fake bait, switching to live bait!”

Yue Feng nodded, “Right!

I don’t believe that good quality grouper meat won’t attract big fish!”

Next, Yue Feng found a tool for cutting meat from his toolbox and brutally sliced the grouper in half.

He then readjusted the fishing set-up, manually tying two huge hooks, nearly as big as weighing hooks.

After some preparation, the new fishing set-up was ready.
