A god-tier fishing spot, anglers lined up to give me money.

The system voice sounded precisely as my consciousness probed underwater.

[Ding! The number of fishermen has reached 869, and the multiplier has reached 8700.]

Yang Qi shook his head inwardly: Tsk tsk tsk, 800 people, 200 repeat customers, not bad.

It's just... the increase is too fast, it's making me anxious.

On second thought: But what does the growth rate of the underwater world have to do with my reservoir...?

Stop thinking about it and focus your mind on the water.

At the same time, upon entering the fishing spot, Zhao Hua did not immediately start broadcasting. Instead, he neatly placed his mobile phone and other electronic devices among a bush on the shore.

Then, carrying that bulging backpack, he deliberately chose to walk in the most crowded areas. With his hands behind his back, he strolled around like an old man taking a walk.

"Brother, what time did you arrive? Do you have any fish?"

Zhao Hua approached a middle-aged man who was tying hooks with his head down, speaking to him in a warm tone.

The man didn't even look up, his eyes fixed on Piao. "Yes, I arrived at 7 o'clock. Look..."

He gestured towards his feet, "One of the fishing rods broke; this reservoir is huge!"

Zhao Hua looked over and indeed saw a broken rod tip stuck diagonally in the mud, with half a fishing line still hanging from the carbon fiber stub.

"I see..."

He nodded, stood up, looked at the distant buoy, then stepped on his right foot with his left and tilted his body to the side—

"thump!"

Water splashed high into the air.

"Ah, help! Help! I can't swim..."

Zhao Hua thrashed about in the water, flailing his arms wildly at the surface, and swallowed a mouthful of muddy water, choking and coughing.

The fisherman reacted quickly, jumped in, grabbed Zhao Hua by the back of his collar, and dragged him ashore.

Zhao Hua collapsed on the grass, soaked to the bone. His once bulging backpack flattened the moment he stepped ashore.

He grabbed the fisherman's wrist, trembling, and said, "Brother, thank you, thank you so much, you saved my life... I don't even know how to repay you, please..."

Before he could finish speaking, the float on the fishing rod on the shore disappeared.

"I caught a fish! Brother, you should really thank me, so don't bother me while I'm fishing!"

The fisherman flung Zhao Hua's hand away, rushed back, and set his hook, his face flushed with excitement.

Zhao Hua smiled slightly and wrung out the water from his trousers.

Carrying that deflated backpack, I picked up my phone and other belongings.

He walked to the shade of a tree and glanced back. The fisherman who had saved him was bent over reeling in a fish and hadn't noticed him at all.

Mr. Yang, I hope you'll like the gift I prepared for you...

Zhao Hua turned the backpack to the front, unzipped it, and found several empty plastic bags inside.

I took out a towel that I had prepared in advance from the bag containing my phone and other items, and wiped my face.

After a long while, he took out his phone, opened the live streaming app, set up his stand, and started the live stream.

[Where did Brother Hua, the anti-counterfeiting expert, go today?]

[I heard you've explored a new fishing spot?]

[Where is this background set?]

Zhao Hua smiled at the camera: "Brothers, this fishing spot is interesting, let's take a look."

As he spoke, he raised the tripod and the camera panned across the entire reservoir.

On the emerald green water, hundreds of fishing rods stand scattered about, and occasionally someone cheers as they cast their line.

Meanwhile, Chen Zilu was holding up her phone stand next to the house, with the screen facing the reservoir.

She wore light makeup, a white sun-protective shirt, and her hair was tied in a high ponytail, looking fresh and neat.

"Hello everyone, I'm Zilu. Today, I'll show you what our fishing pond looked like on its first day of opening..."

She stepped aside, clearing a large expanse of water behind her.

"See that? It's packed with people! And one angler already had a run!"

The number of viewers in the live stream started jumping from a few dozen and then increased.

[Wow! Zilu's fishing spot?]

[Wow, this is huge! Where am I?]

Are there any opening discounts?

[I see so many people over there!]

The comments scrolled sparsely across the screen. Chen Zilu was about to introduce the pricing structure when suddenly—

The water surface exploded with a loud "splash!"

A large, silvery-white fish leaped out of the water, more than half a meter long, before crashing back into the water, creating ripples.

The live stream chat exploded instantly.

[Holy crap, what kind of fish is this?!]

[Wow, that's huge! It must weigh at least 20 pounds!]

[IOUs, 20 jin of IOUs?]

[Oh My God……]

Upon seeing this, Chen Zilu ran forward, holding the stand, shouting, "My God, family, did you see that? That fish was huge!"

Before he finished speaking, several more splashes erupted on the water's surface, and a few dark blue fish shadows flashed past beneath the surface, creating ripples and eddies that spread in all directions.

The anglers on the shore were also excited.

"We've struck it rich!"

"Quick! Cast your line now!"

The sounds of casting rods, reels, and voices filled the air.

"This is nowhere near it," Yang Qi thought, his mind spreading out.

Underwater, the blue bream rises from the deep water.

A group of fishermen were playing around on the shallow water's edge.

The anglers on the nearby shore gasped in surprise, "Holy crap..."

"Wow, it's huge! Everyone, look underwater..."

Before he could finish speaking, the water exploded.

The Azure Venerable Fish burst out of the water, its nearly 5-meter-long body stretching out in mid-air, its scales shimmering with a bluish-gray metallic luster in the sunlight.

The splash of water from the fish's tail as it slapped the surface of the water traveled several meters.

It leaped about three meters high, paused for a moment, and then crashed back into the water.

Holy crap!

"What is that? What kind of fish is that?!"

"At least a hundred pounds, maybe a thousand pounds?"

The entire shoreline was in an uproar.

Chen Zilu's live stream chat exploded:

"Holy crap, it really is real, a thousand pounds..."

"With that size, are there really freshwater fish this big on Earth?"

"Where's the address?! I need to go there right now!"

……

Yang Qi didn't stop. He urged his mind again, causing the large fish, weighing tens to two hundred kilograms, to bite the hook at the same time.

In an instant, dozens of fishing rods on the shore bent into full bows, the buzzing of the fishing lines filling the air.

Someone was pulled forward and staggered.

Some people gritted their teeth and held on to their fishing rods.

Before anyone could react, their rod snapped with a "crack".

The sound of fishing rods breaking echoed along the shore, and the fragments fell onto the water, creating small ripples.

Some of the people who caught the fish shouted excitedly, while others were pulled around on the shore by the fish. Some were even pulled into the shallow water, getting soaked but still laughing.

The idea of ​​letting half the people experience the thrill of a broken rod actually failed when faced with Gu Shang and Ye Xuan.

Zhao Hua mingled at the edge of the crowd, holding his phone to his chest, the camera swaying as it swept across the various fishing spots.

His expression gradually became serious. The smallest of the fish that were pulled out of the water weighed about ten pounds.

The fish has intact scales and is full of vitality; the splashes of water it makes when it flicks its tail on the surface are real.

There really are fish...

He frowned and noticed that two people had been caught in the fish, but they didn't react at all.

Look, the one on the left is muscular and sits like a mountain.

The one on the right has his sleeves rolled up and is leaning forward.

Each of them had a thick casting rod in front of them, with lines that were more than twice as thick as those of the others.

He appeared calm and composed, chatting and laughing.

Are these two really that fierce? Look how bent their fishing rods are!

Thinking about it, Zhao Hua quietly moved the camera over there.
