Chapter 236 Newbie Protection Period
Perhaps it's because it's work time now, not a weekend.
When Li Qin arrived at Shichahai, he found that although there were people fishing there, there weren't many.
Li Qin first found a suitable spot based on the knowledge he had learned from books, and then took a bunch of tools from his bicycle.
Then I sat on a stool and started fishing.
Although Li Qin knew how to bait the nest, he didn't do it.
The main reason is that he never intended to catch a certain number of fish from the beginning.
The bait Li Qin used was made from grains produced in the space.
It features technology and ruthless skills that are ahead of their time.
That's why, not long after Li Qin sat down, a fish took the bait.
After being hoisted up, it turned out to be a grass carp weighing one or two pounds.
This fish has too many bones, making it too troublesome to eat, and it also has a very strong fishy smell.
Therefore, even if Li Qin were to eat fish, he would not choose grass carp.
However, since it had already been hoisted up, Li Qin wouldn't let it go; instead, he put it into a bucket.
It's unclear whether Li Qin had a beginner's luck boost or if the bait he used was just too good.
Over the next few minutes, fish would bite the hook.
Before long, the bucket was filled with more than a dozen fish of various sizes.
The larger ones weigh four or five pounds, while the smaller ones weigh more than a pound.
Li Qin has, of course, also caught fish weighing less than a pound.
However, Li Qin would always put these small fish back into the water.
As time went by, the other fishermen around them gradually noticed the unusual behavior on Li Qin's side.
Soon, several people had gathered behind Li Qin.
These people are all quite old.
The youngest looks to be in his forties.
The oldest one has completely white hair and is at least in his sixties.
Li Qin naturally noticed that these people had gathered.
He recognized them as people who were fishing nearby. They had gathered there but were just watching from behind without making a sound to disturb them.
Li Qin didn't say anything.
Besides, he didn't use any magic spells while fishing, so there was nothing he couldn't do that was shameful. If these people want to see, then let them see.
It won't cause him any loss.
"Young man, your bait seems a bit unusual!"
Just as Li Qin put the fish off the hook into the bucket and rebaited the hook, an old man behind him suddenly spoke softly.
Li Qin glanced at the old man with some surprise, then nodded and said with admiration;
"Old man, you have a good eye. My bait is indeed special. It is made using medicinal herbs according to a method taught by an old Chinese medicine doctor."
This was an excuse he had prepared long ago, and now that someone asked, Li Qin said it without the slightest hesitation.
Upon hearing his words, the people surrounding him immediately showed expressions of understanding.
They had felt something was strange before.
From Li Qin's actions and other behaviors, they could tell that Li Qin was not a seasoned angler.
But he kept catching big fish.
This is clearly not a valid point.
Unexpectedly, the root cause was the bait used by Li Qin.
Of course, that was also because the bait Li Qin used was not particularly outstanding in appearance, and was not much different from common bait.
That's why they didn't think of this.
Upon learning of the powerful effects of the bait brought by Li Qin, a burning desire immediately ignited in the eyes of those around them.
Those who fish at this time are basically fishing enthusiasts.
They were naturally tempted by Li Qin's bait.
"Young man, can we make a deal?"
The old man who was the first to notice that Li Qin's bait was unusual was the first to speak.
Li Qin secured the fishing rod in his hand, then turned to look at the old man and nodded with a smile.
"Is there something you need, sir?"
At this moment, the old man suddenly became a little awkward, as if he felt somewhat embarrassed.
But in the end, he still spoke up:
"Young man, could you share some of the bait with me?"
After saying this, the old man and many others looked at Li Qin with expectant faces.
Li Qin did not respond immediately, but remained silent.
The old man seemed to have thought of something, and then said:
"Don't worry, young man, I'm not taking your bait for nothing. I'll exchange it for money or tickets."
Upon hearing this, Li Qin frowned subconsciously, then shook his head.
Seeing Li Qin's reaction, the old man's eyes immediately dimmed.
He thought it was Li Qin who was unwilling to make the exchange.
This left many people around who shared the same thoughts feeling disappointed.
But at that moment, Li Qin suddenly spoke up:
"Although my bait is a secret recipe, it's not worth much money. I can give you a little bit, but you don't need to pay me any money or tickets."
I didn't bring much bait this time, so the amount I can share won't be much either. Please don't mind.
The old man, who had originally thought he should give up, immediately showed a joyful expression upon hearing Li Qin's words.
He quickly waved his hand;
"No problem, no problem!"
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, some people around him also smiled and then walked over.
Li Qin also witnessed this scene.
He also knew what these people were thinking.
Therefore, before these people could speak, Li Qin preemptively said:
"I know what you're thinking. I'll give you some bait later. As for how you distribute it, you can discuss it yourselves."
Upon hearing this, everyone around him smiled.
The way they looked at Li Qin was also full of goodwill.
In fact, Li Qin used quite a lot of fish bait.
However, it cannot be taken out all at once.
After speaking, Li Qin immediately opened a small bag.
Inside was a secret-recipe fish bait.
Li Qin set aside half of the amount and gave it to the people around him, letting them distribute it among themselves.
Then he took some more out of the small bag and handed them to the old man who had spoken earlier.
The old man excitedly accepted the bait.
After carefully putting away the bait, the old man looked at Li Qin again and thanked him earnestly:
"Thank you!"
Li Qin waved his hand dismissively.
Those who had received the bait all came to Li Qin to thank him.
Afterwards, these people returned to their positions and began to replace the fishhooks with the secret bait.
But the old man did not leave.
He simply whispered a few words to a young man next to him.
Soon the young man moved all of the old man's fishing gear to the spot next to Li Qin.
"Young man, do you mind if I fish here?"
The old man did not fish directly next to Li Qin, but instead very politely asked Li Qin a question.
Li Qin, however, looked completely indifferent.
"It's alright, as long as you're happy, old man."
After receiving Li Qin's permission, the old man had his things put away before he put his secret bait on the fishhooks.
Li Qin could tell from the beginning that this old man was no ordinary person.
Whether it's the clothes the other person is wearing, their manner of speaking, or their overall demeanor.
Not to mention when they go fishing, they'll always be accompanied by security guards or drivers.
