Chapter 708 - 708 695 What to Do

708: Chapter 695: What to Do 708: Chapter 695: What to Do When it came to breeding fish species, Yue Feng was completely out of his element, but when it came to things like corn and beans, the boy who grew up in a small village had heard of them.

Take beans, for example, the domestic original varieties because of low yield, low oil extraction rate, and poor quality, had largely been taken over by imported beans, among which there were GMOs, and it was hard to tell the good from the bad for now.

Then there was corn, a similar situation because you can’t save seeds, every year you need to purchase high-quality seeds, which can be considered another form of technological embargo.

“I get it!

So, what you’re saying is, this stuff is pretty valuable!” Yue Feng nodded.

“Yeah, right!”

“I know now!” Yue Feng mused.

That’s when Kid turned his head, “What’s the matter, you planning on taking back the gift?”

“No, once given, it’s given.

We can’t use it anyway!

Besides, I’m not short of money!

Compared to that, I value Lawrence’s friendship more!

Just for solving the problem of registering for the competition, we owe him that favor!”

“So what are you thinking about?

What does that frown mean?”

“I’m considering winning the championship after the competition ends tomorrow.

Those foreigners disgusted me today!” Yue Feng continued.

“What are you planning to do?” Kid heard this and was a bit worried, his boyfriend was not the type to be passive, he had never seen him at a disadvantage.

“Haven’t decided yet, but I definitely can’t let it go just like that.

You two weren’t on the boat, you don’t know how outrageous they were!

If it weren’t for David’s good boating skills and my slightly better luck, that big fish would have gotten away!”

“I still think that when we are abroad, we should keep a low profile, especially since it’s not like at home!”

Yue Feng’s lips curled into a smile, “I used to think so too, but hearing how valuable that fish was, I changed my mind.

If anything unexpected happens, Mr.

Lawrence will definitely help!”

With that, Zhang Lin and Kid both realized where Yue Feng’s train of thought was going.

“Alright, you’ve always been careful, I just ask that you keep safe!”

“Don’t worry!”

…

The next morning, Yue Feng and his two companions got up early again, continuing the competition on the second day!

Compared to being unnoticed the first day, Yue Feng noticed a subtle change at the competition scene the following day.

Wherever he went, people noticed him, with many Americans greeting him warmly, even the staff looked at Yue Feng with added admiration and respect.

Yue Feng was familiar with this feeling; after winning the Fishing King title in China, he had received similar attitudes from common anglers recognizing him, not expecting that just by luck in catching a big fish, such subtle changes could happen.

The competition on the second day followed the same procedure as the first, but the difference was Lawrence also arrived at the scene, an event of this level wasn’t something the old man would usually join, as he had qualifications for the highest level of competitions, and joining such a beginner-level competition seemed a bit beneath him.

His presence today was specifically for Yue Feng.

Lawrence, dressed casually for the outdoors, greeted Yue Feng with a laugh, “Haha, my dear friend, you always surprise me!

You might not know yet, but the American fishing forums are going crazy.

Countless people are discussing the big fish from yesterday, and a few old friends who heard I got the fish even called wanting to buy it!!”

“It was just luck!

How’s that fish doing?”

“Of course, I had people temporarily fence off an area in the lake to accommodate it!

Once the new giant aquarium is ready, it’ll be my most cherished pet!”

“That sounds pretty nice!”

“Haha, quite nice!

To thank you, once the competition is over, I’d like to throw a celebration party for you, and you must attend then!”

“The same kind as last time?

You know, other than my fellow countrymen studying abroad, you are my only friend in the United States.

Let’s skip the celebration; I’m afraid my girlfriend might get jealous!

“If you have time, you can come over to my place.

Little Zhang and I can treat you to authentic Chinese cuisine.

You’ve seen him; he’s a good young man!

Just as outstanding as me!” Yue Feng tactfully declined, instead inviting the other over for Chinese dinner at his home.

Lawrence, ever so clever, immediately realized the issue and said with a smile, “That would be awesome!

I’m very interested in Chinese cuisine!”

The two were enjoying their conversation when the sound of a staff member reminding them to board the boat for the competition came.

“I need to get to the rest of the competition now.

If you aren’t in a hurry, don’t miss my championship award ceremony after it ends!” Yue Feng subtly laid a trap for Lawrence.

“Of course!”

…

The next day’s competition involved a redraw, Yue Feng felt no pressure at all and casually picked a spot to prepare with David.

The competition the next day was even more relaxed than the first, with ever-improving spot-finding skills, Yue Feng caught a total of eight Big Mouth Bass, once again crushing the other anglers.

It’s worth mentioning that Joe Smith and other anglers who played a disruptive wolf pack strategy the previous day didn’t bother Yue Feng today.

Clearly, they had realized they were exerting futile efforts.

Even if Yue Feng caught not a single fish, there was still no doubt about him winning this championship.

At exactly two o’clock in the afternoon, Yue Feng’s boat arrived on time at the weighing spot.

After submitting his catch for the day and confirming his scores, he uncontroversially won the Big Mouth Bass state championship!

The final score was 68.85 pounds!

This score not only secured the championship for him but also broke the state championship record for the highest total weight in the past decade!

In one competition, Yue Feng achieved three championship records.

They were for the heaviest single catch championship, the heaviest individual fish championship, and breaking the ten-year record for the heaviest state championship, gaining an additional award.

If there were a gold medal for each category, Yue Feng could proudly claim three.

Compared to various domestic fishing base award ceremonies, the state competition’s award ceremony seemed a bit shabby.

A few utility vehicles unloaded the award equipment to set up a simple stage, surrounded by various logos and brands of sponsors and naming rights businesses, with staff members wearing tags moving about frequently.

In contrast, the audience below the stage was rather extravagant with not just the anglers but also at least dozens of media reporters, cameras of all sizes poised and ready,

Just by this small detail, Yue Feng could see that the commercialization of fishing competitions in the United States was much stronger than back home.

Soon, the award ceremony was about to start, and a curvaceous blonde with blue eyes, the hostess, walked up to the stage with the list of competition names.

After a series of non-nutritive thank-you speeches for sponsorship, the formal awarding began.
