Chapter 863: Chapter 846: Feng Ge Takes You to Generate Revenue

The Hua Clan’s newly built Fishing Base, which was supposedly not to be used or opened before the competition, has actually let some insiders in for training in advance?

This news quickly spread in the circle, and many people immediately submitted complaints to the club league’s organizing committee.

The old man, a highly respected permanent member of the organizing committee, couldn’t be as firm as before and had to loosen up, allowing other legitimate fishing clubs to come for pre-competition training.

With a week left before the start of the club league’s East China Region sub-station competition, loads of fishing clubs swarmed in.

On this day, Yue Feng and his team, as usual, arrived punctually at eight o’clock for practice, focusing on techniques like Floating Fishing and Fly Kicking, only to end up shocked when they reached the gate.

Dammit, they were still over a hundred meters from the gates and couldn’t drive any further, with dozens of small cars from surrounding areas crowding the entrance, honking wildly. Some car up front seemed not to have informed in advance and was stopped by the security guard.

“What the heck is going on? How come there are so many people? Isn’t there still a week until the competition?” Zhao Zheng asked curiously.

Yue Feng was also puzzled and pulled out his phone to call Xiao Hai.

The call to Xiao Hai revealed someone even more aggrieved than Yue Feng,

When Yue Feng was being received, Xiao Hai had covered all foreseeable issues but failed to remind him not to live stream to avoid leaks. Now that the old man’s backdoor deal got caught red-handed, he couldn’t vent his anger on Yue Feng, as he was unaware. The old man went back to his office and gave Xiao Hai a good scolding.

As for these new social vehicles, they were all personnel from various clubs, today being the first day. They could practice at the base until 48 hours before the competition, during which the ponds would be closed, drained, sanitized, and disinfected!

After waiting for more than half an hour behind the other cars, they finally drove into the yard, but the parking spots closest to Pond No.1 were already taken, with club anglers everywhere busy unloading and arranging their gear.

“Damn, our days of enjoying the base alone are over! Feng, our practice here won’t cause the old man any trouble, right?” Wang Zhen asked worriedly.

Yue Feng shook his head: “Xiao Hai took the scolding for us! The public explanation is that I’m here as a technical advisor, and our team members are test-fishing in the pond! Since the old man opened up training, he’s already given an account, it’s not a problem!”

Zhao Zheng then smirked: “Who said our good days are over, they’re just beginning! Fewer people mean one way of practicing, more people means there’s more fun! Right, Yue Feng!”

As old buddies from Hua School, Yue Feng and Zhao Zheng understood each other with just a look. Hearing this, Yue Feng nodded with a smile.

Yue Feng: “In the upcoming week, let’s aim to earn a minimum of ten thousand for the team. I’ll lead you to train while making money!”

“Fishing and earning money? Is there such a good deal?” Wang Zhen, Xue Kai, and Wang Xiaomin exchanged glances, all three rookies looking puzzled.

Silent Zhao Ran couldn’t help but explain: “The captain means taking everyone to fish for stakes! It’s common for competitive anglers to fish for stakes outside of regular competitions. The bets aren’t big, usually twenty or thirty yuan per match, but they’re short, each match lasting twenty to thirty minutes!”

“Betting money? I won’t bet, I need to send my wages back home!”

Upon hearing that, Wang Xiaomin shook his head stubbornly.

He was a filial child, young but understanding that money doesn’t come easy, sending most of his salary back home aside from necessary daily expenses.

When Zhao Zheng heard, he said: “Wang Xiaomin, look at you with your petty-mindedness! With the captain and Ran on our side, fishing against the Fishing King’s team, which fool would lose money? You’re like a stubborn ox that can’t be led to the trough!!”

“Really can make money?”

“Really can!”

“I’ll give it a shot, but if I lose a hundred, I won’t bet anymore! I only kept a hundred as pocket money this month!”

Zhao Zheng waved him off: “Alright, alright, you don’t need to fork out that hundred. For the sake of your filial heart, if we win, it’s yours; if we lose, it’s on me!”

“That’s great, you take on the risk, and I’ll do your laundry, but let’s make it clear, except for stinky socks, I can handle the rest!”

“Damn, thank you!”

“Hahaha”

The whole team burst into laughter at the mention of the stinky socks. Zhao Zheng was perfect everywhere, except he had sweaty feet with a notorious odor, well-known among them.

Once the team reached unity, they swiftly moved into the preparation phase of selecting opponents for fishing off-the-books.

The dozens of people who first arrived at the Fishing Base were mostly anglers from nearby cities. After studying the situation, Yue Feng and Zhao Zheng couldn’t identify any notable professional fishing gear company teams.

Their clothing wasn’t uniform, and the logos on their gear were a mess. At a glance, they weren’t a regular unit. If the guess was right, they were likely small temporary teams that registered just to play around after hearing about the club league. After all, the club league was in its infancy and didn’t have the entry barriers like other sports such as football or basketball.

Just when Yue Feng and Zhao Zheng were pondering where to begin, a tall, lanky guy’s call caught Yue Feng’s attention.

“Anyone up for fish-offs? Training alone is so boring. Want to improve your skills? Only real competitions can help you progress!”

The tall, lanky guy was about 183 cm tall, had tanned skin, and wore black-framed glasses. He had a blue with white stripe Fei brand half-brim fishing hat wrapped around his head and sported a Fei brand face shield along with an entire set of Fei brand sunscreen clothing and sports pants.

The Fei brand fishing gear company, founded by Cong Jie, was certainly mid-to-high end in the domestic fishing gear industry. Both clothing and equipment adhered to rigorous quality standards,

while the market prices were also not cheap. Anglers outfitted in full sets of Fei brand gear were generally more professional than those in jumbled attire.

Anglers able to train from afar early on were definitely competent in their local areas. Upon hearing the tall guy’s call for a fish-off, quite a few people gathered around.

“Count me in!”

“Count me in as well, what are the rules?”

“Me too!”

Yue Feng discreetly observed the scene, noting that at least ten people responded.

Yue Feng signaled to Zhao Zheng, who knew exactly what to do and strode forward.

“Hey, man! I’m Zhao Zheng, any room for more in the fish-off? A few of us friends want to join, what are the rules?”

“Rules are simple, a twenty-minute round, counting either number or weight, with a thirty-yuan stake! The champion takes half, the runner-up gets twenty percent, third to fifth place break even, the rest fill the pot!”
