Chapter 844: Chapter 827: You’re number 10? I’m number 11!

When it comes to friends, Yue Feng is not stingy at all. He and Old Zhang went to the parked car, opened the trunk, and took out four large packages of bait labeled in clear resealable bags with a black marker.

Compared to the finished products with well-adjusted flavor and state, Zhang Fenglin was clearly more interested in the original versions of the different flavored baits.

He eagerly took the bait that Yue Feng handed over, opened it immediately, and started studying it at the back of the car.

After watching for a while, Zhang Fenglin lifted his head, and his gaze at Yue Feng had changed.

“Not bad, how did you come up with this!”

Yue Feng grinned: “What?”

“You’re still pretending to be mysterious with me! Look, this package with the original flavor is done the finest, most thoroughly crushed! No need to say, it surely will take the largest proportion when opening the bait! Next is the brown sugar flavored, also thoroughly crushed! And the potato wheat flavor, is larger, and so is the fruit acid flavor!

No doubt these two flavors will be used less. By adjusting according to different proportions, it considers both the strength of flavor and the state of bait once opened. A very genius design!”

Zhang Fenglin is indeed Zhang Fenglin. Just by looking at the flavor and crush level of the original bait, he naturally imagined the role of different parts of the bait once mixed with water. You could say, Old Zhang’s understanding of bait has reached a very high level.

Yue Feng grinned: “Can’t hide anything from your eyes, you saw through the thought at a glance! But this bait can’t be given to you for free, try mixing it according to your understanding, and let me know once you find the right proportion!”

“You sneaky boy, sharper than a monkey! Alright, I’ll try it today and let you know later!” Zhang Fenglin readily agreed.

“There’s still some time before we start, don’t delay, get ready!”

“I can’t go to the edge, so, help me fetch some water, I’ll mix it in the car, and bring it over once it’s ready! That group of guys have sharp eyes, if they see me opening the bait, they’ll be like wolves. Can’t let them learn the new product so quickly!”

“Alright!” Yue Feng picked up a small bucket and went to get water.

When Yue Feng returned with the water, Zhang Fenglin’s bait proportioning was almost finished.

In the large bait opening bowl, the four baits representing different flavors were distinctly separated like a pie chart in a statistical report. Old Zhang didn’t rush to mix them, obviously intentionally letting Yue Feng see the rough proportions.

“Hey, take a look at my flavor proportions, the original flavor as the base, two parts, brown sugar, to enhance palatability, one and a half parts, potato wheat flavor as the main attack, two parts, fruit acid for this season, add one part!

This proportion should be a suitable formula for catching today’s lively Chongfeng Carp. I don’t know about the flavor strength of your bait, I’ll adjust it slightly with the original flavor after testing!”

Zhang Fenglin pointed at the bait in the bowl, directly sharing his fishing strategy with Yue Feng.

This proportion was almost identical to how Yue Feng mixed his bait, only differing by half a part of brown sugar. It shows that their understanding of bait and flavor was almost the same. And Old Zhang adding half a part more of brown sugar might give him an edge in today’s fast fish fishing.

Yue Feng: “It’s similar to my mix, you added half more brown sugar, give it a try, and adjust if it doesn’t work!”

Upon hearing the half part difference in brown sugar, Zhang Fenglin looked at Yue Feng again: “You understand bait better than me! I hesitated a bit when pondering the brown sugar earlier. If we consider overall stability of the formula, one part of brown sugar would be more suitable than one and a half! Never mind, let’s stick with this and adjust if it doesn’t work!”

While speaking, Zhang Fenglin started preparing the bait work without a measuring cup, just poured from the bucket, and after more or less right, scooped a bit of water and mixed it uniformly, setting it aside to rest.

After waiting three minutes for the bait to absorb the water, Zhang Fenglin frowned again.

Oh boy, the reserved bit for light bran seems unnecessary; even without adding the final light bran, the bait’s water balance was already suitably consistent. The water absorption of the new bait clearly improved a grade over the old yellow powder.

Yue Feng casually pinched a bit: “No need for bran, the weight and state are suitable!”

“Alright, let’s go with this, knead a soft sticky lump, and we’ll have a great run today!”

…

Over half an hour later, more and more people gathered at the fishing ground, filling the parking lot, with twenty minutes to go before the start, the pit owner’s loudspeaker announced.

“All brothers signed up for the main fishing, come draw lots. Three registered on WeChat but haven’t paid yet, hurry and pay. Our rule is pay first, fish later! Let’s go, quickly!”

Hearing the lot drawing, everyone put down their equipment and headed to the shed.

This pit owner was unfamiliar to Yue Feng, and it was his first time at this new pit, but he was given face, moving Yue Feng’s group of seven forward a lot during the draw. With a forty-person fishing spot, less than ten were drawn before it started for the Yuefeng Club group, causing some anglers who hadn’t noticed Yue Feng’s participation to buzz with noise when he got on stage.

Compared to previous unprofessional paper box draws, Hongyun Fishing Ground’s draw was fairer and more just.

A transparent lottery-like device, all ping-pong balls with numbers checked and put inside, called the angler’s name, then turned the handle and the ball that came out was the fishing spot, eliminating any possibility of shady operation.

When it came to Yue Feng’s seven, he acknowledged and led the team to the lot machine confidently.

Yue Feng gestured: “You guys go, I’ll be last!”

Including Coach Niu, all team members went on stage to draw one by one.

It’s worth mentioning, the three young ones had noticeably better luck than Coach Niu, Zhao Zheng, and Zhao Ran. Particularly Wang Zhen, who was most anxious before the competition, grabbed a spot at the central aerator, clutching the ball and jumping happily.

“Damn! Number 10, this one’s solid! Hahaha!” Wang Zhen exaggeratedly kissed the ping-pong ball and joyfully wiggled his butt.

Niu Ben lifted his leg and kicked him hard on his butt without hesitation: “Show off! There are still people behind! Little Yue, we’re done, your turn!”

Yue Feng nodded, put his hand on the machine, and casually shook it, pulling out a number ball.

11!

Also a center position on the North Shore, right next to Wang Zhen.

“11!” Yue Feng called the number, handing the ball to the pit owner.

The next second, the team burst into laughter.
