Back to the Past to Become a Fishing King

Chapter 264: The Fall of the Sacred Wild Fishing Ground


Ever since Lang Junfeng entered Zhang Yang's livestream, he kept his head down and stayed until around midnight. The three big lights Zhang Yang brought ran out of power, and the stream ended, yet he still didn't find any clues about the fishing spot in the livestream.

After watching the wild big crucian carp jump around all night, Old Lang didn't even know how much drool he had shed. That night, Old Lang didn't even know how he fell asleep; in his hazy dreams, he kept seeing the image of the thin-tailed bobber gently dipping below the surface and him catching fish.

The next morning, Lang Junfeng crawled out of bed early with panda eyes.

Logically, during this season, sunrise is late, and there are fewer fishermen. Old Lang's shop usually opens after seven in the morning, so getting up this early is completely pointless.

But Old Lang insisted on doing it. The worst thing about any matter is getting serious about it, and after being continuously stimulated, Old Lang got serious this time. He was determined to see where Zhang Yang was catching fish.

After waking up early, Old Lang told his wife to mind the shop, changed his clothes, and drove out. While eating at the breakfast place downstairs, he remembered and deliberately called a friend to swap cars.

After swapping cars and filling his stomach, Lang Junfeng drove an inconspicuous Camry towards Zhang Yang's tackle shop.

By the time Zhang Yang's parents opened the shop for business after seven in the morning, Old Lang's car was already parked not far across the street.

Yes, you saw it right.

Old Lang, desperate to know Zhang Yang's secret fishing spot, resorted to a tactic usually reserved for investigative police officers—staking out.

Zhang Yang's fishing van was parked in the spot outside the shop, but from after seven in the morning until ten-thirty, Old Lang was stunned that Zhang Yang didn't leave.

Zhang Yang had returned home at more than one in the morning after taking a night shift yesterday. His mom didn't wake him up for breakfast in the morning, so he peacefully slept until eight-thirty.

Eating breakfast a bit late meant he could skip lunch while timing the fishing trip around midday.

Following his usual routine, Zhang Yang had no idea that on the street outside his little shop, there was a colleague driven mad by big crucian carp, staking out.

By around ten in the morning, Zhang Yang's shop began bustling as customers arrived, all 'regular' participants having arranged to come one after the other.

Seeing familiar license plates outside Zhang Yang's shop, Lang Junfeng finally perked up.

After staking out all morning, finishing off a box of cigarettes, he finally saw a sign of progress.

After Zhang Yang's group gathered, they replenished their fishing supplies and set off again. A group of six drove straight to the destination.

And Lang Junfeng, carefully followed behind these chaps. They passed through the town's residential area and continued east until they reached the vicinity of the pumping station at the artificial canal.

While tracking, Lang Junfeng was pondering where Zhang Yang and the others were going to fish. When he saw them from afar arriving at the pumping station, he finally understood!

No wonder the location wasn't mentioned in the stream, and no wonder they caught so many big crucian carps!

The puzzle that had been bothering him finally got solved.

Those guys led by Zhang Yang were really ruthless, having found a route to fish at the sluice gate of the pumping station!

This place becomes obvious once you follow them, but if you rely on guessing, you'd never figure it out!

To locals, the Yinghuang Jiqing Artificial Canal has always been an option outside their fishing considerations. There's no chance to fish there.

Having figured out the secret spot, Old Lang felt his hand shake a bit on the steering wheel. After thinking quickly, he took out his phone and called his senior brother Li Chunsheng.

"Hello? What's up?" The phone connected, and Li Chunsheng's calm voice sounded in the receiver.

"Senior brother, you know the friends in charge of the Yinghuang Jiqing Water Management, right? I discovered a big secret!"

"A big secret? What are you up to again? Not taking the team to the reservoir to fish today?" Li Chunsheng casually asked, ignoring the first question.

In Li Chunsheng's eyes, although his junior brother wasn't young, he sometimes didn't act mature, occasionally pulling off reckless things he presumed to be clever despite his age and experience.

Their relationship was close, but regarding social connections, Li Chunsheng was cautious, having suffered losses when introducing clients to his junior brother before.

"Let me tell you, Zhang Yang and his team have been fishing in the artificial canal these past few days! I ran into them selling fish at the aquatic market. Wild big crucian carp weighing over a pound each, selling over five to six hundred pounds at a time!

They were live streaming last night, refusing to divulge the location, and this morning, I staked out in front of his shop. I followed their convoy to the pumping station at the canal! Saw them all fishing at the sluice gate!

The pumping station usually doesn't allow casual entries, but they have keys—it's definitely through connections!

See if you can ask your friends to inquire so we can enjoy too!"

"Oh? There are wild big crucian carp at the artificial canal? Are you sure?"

Hearing his junior spill the beans like a bamboo tube pouring out beans, even Li Chunsheng who wasn't as passionate about fishing became interested.

"Absolutely! A hundred percent!"

"Wait for my news, I'll ask a friend to find out!"

After hanging up the call, Li Chunsheng called another friend and subtly asked about the situation at the artificial canal.
