Back to the Past to Become a Fishing King
Chapter 715 - 412: No Need to Use a Sledgehammer to Kill a Chicken
The big Hummer parked along the main road of Garden Village, still over a hundred meters away from the Garden Fishing Ground.
A middle-aged handsome man with Randolph sunglasses, firm facial features, looking around forty-five or forty-six years old, got out of the car.
He was the initiator and commander of this operation, his online name is "Sky's the Limit," real name Xu Guanjun. He looks only in his forties, but he is actually 54 years old. His various enterprises are managed by professionals, and he is a fishing enthusiast who has long since achieved financial freedom.
From his online name, you can tell, he is not the type who likes to be serious and show off. When he likes a streamer, he gives them some gifts casually, having already spent over seven figures on the platform without realizing it, holding an account of over level fifty.
Among all the streamers the big brother follows, Xiao Wei is the most special one.
Although the little girl was just average at fishing when she started streaming, she learned quickly.
Moreover, she never likes to scam for gifts when she knows people, chats with viewers openly, and never shies away from being Zhang Yang's girlfriend. Just by watching her stream for a while, you can feel the genuine manners and unpretentious sincerity she exudes.
Those big guys who have achieved financial freedom are all seasoned foxes, who can't see through the petty schemes of those flashy little streamers?
The more it is like this, the more rare a distinctive, sincere, and kind streamer like Xiao Wei appears. Gradually, "Sky's the Limit" became a regular in her livestream.
"Brother Xu, what should we do? Should we head straight to the fishing ground and drag them out? My uncle has some connections here in Jinghai, he can handle small troubles!"
A young guy in his twenties got out from the second Wrangler behind, respectfully addressing the leading boss.
"Yeah, since so many of us are here, when we find the troublemakers, we'll take care of them, then leave! Whatever happens!" Others chimed in from the back.
Old Xu, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, shook his head: "We're here to support, not to fight! If I really wanted to handle them, there would be no need to come in person! Just a phone call and there'd be someone taking action! Your suggestion is too low!"
Hearing Old Xu's attitude, everyone became contemplative.
"So, what's your plan⦠We'll all follow your lead!"
"Just park the cars aside here and wait until the competition ends, then we'll leave with Xiao Wei and Zhang Yang! The troublemakers won't escape, someone else can handle the dirty work, it's not the focus!"
"Alright, we'll follow your lead! Whatever you say!"
"Stop standing around, get in the cars. I'll coordinate with Xiao Wei's assistant and inform them. Just park the cars aside nicely, turn on the hazard lights, and if there's anything, I'll inform you in the group!"
"Okay!"
After some simple coordination, everyone got back into the cars, the windows unified on the driver's side lowered, and everyone holding cigarettes didn't seem to be easy to deal with.
With more than twenty vehicles, besides the leading Hummer there were Lexus, Wranglers, Land Cruisers, Prados, all large-displacement SUVs, the convoy parked on the roadside with hazard lights blinking.
After tidying up the lineup a bit, Old Xu contacted Xiao Wei's assistant in the group via WeChat, briefly explained the situation, and soon the assistant reported to Zhang Yang and Xiao Wei.
Zhang Yang was standing below the award stage, waiting to go up and receive the prize. Hearing the news, he paused, hesitated a bit, then asked the assistant to send the other party's phone number to his own phone.
Having a big boss lead people to support his girlfriend, this kind of thing made Zhang Yang feel a bit odd inside.
However, Xiao Wei was always upfront with Zhang Yang about the connections she made through her streaming, so Zhang Yang, after some quick thinking, quickly accepted the situation.
After a few seconds of mental preparation, Zhang Yang dialed the number.
Seeing a call from W City coming through, Old Xu calmly pressed the answer key.
"Hello?"
"Hello Brother Xu, I'm Xiao Wei's boyfriend, Zhang Yang!" Zhang Yang announced his identity as soon as the call connected.
"Haha, Zhang Yang! Nice to meet you! I'm Xu Guanjun, online name 'Sky's the Limit,' I manage Xiao Wei's streaming room! I've watched your fishing videos before!
Now, don't be nervous, our group planned this to support Xiao Wei, no other intentions!" π§ππππΈπ¦π£πππ·ππ.π€π°π
Old Xu immediately addressed any concerns upon hearing Zhang Yang's first words. After all, the relationship between big spenders and streamers can be quite sensitive.
"Thank you, for all your support! I thank everyone on Xiao Wei's behalf! After the awards and everyone disperses, let's get together for a proper introduction tonight!
As for this matter, Brother Ma, the owner of the fishing ground, has already suppressed it, we don't want to make a big scene during this competition! Personally, I think we should avoid the forceful approach, if anything comes up, we'll resolve it calmly later! How does that sound to you?"
Implied through and through, Zhang Yang expressed his respect for Old Xu, while firmly stating his stance, leaving a great impression on Old Xu with his few words, showing that this young man can grasp the main points, despite being so young, he is really mature and sharp.
"Haha, I agree! We're too old for those low-level antics. This time we came mainly to support you all and put on a show of strength!
I've got the convoy parked along the main road outside the Garden Fishing Ground; once your award ceremony concludes, just drive over here!
As the art of war says, to defeat the enemy without fighting is the supreme skill! The brothers will ensure to provide a mighty show for you! Anyone thinking of causing trouble will have to reconsider!"
"No need for further thanks, I'll treat the brothers to drinks later!"
"Haha, sure!"
"Alright, we'll look for you once we're done here!"
"No problem!"

After hanging up the phone, Old Xu developed a strong interest in Zhang Yang.
Old Xu's fondness for Xiao Wei stems from seeing his daughter studying abroad in her, an extension of love for her. With Zhang Yang, he had no emotional basis at first.
But just from a few minutes of call, Old Xu had a very high opinion of Zhang Yang.
No wonder he could build a fishing gear company at a young age. His way of speaking and handling matters is impressive, far surpassing Old Xu's own disappointing son.

After hanging up, Zhang Yang spread his hands at Xiao Wei beside him.
"Uncle Xu won't come and clean up that fool on the spot, right?" Xiao Wei asked worriedly.
Zhang Yang shook his head: "No need to kill a chicken with a butcher's knife! We clarified on the phone; they're here to back us up, not to fight! Xiao Zhang, go take a look at the lineup on the main road outside the fishing ground!"
"Okay!" Xiao Zhang responded, turned and left the observing crowd, running quickly outside.
A few minutes later, Xiao Zhang returned, out of breath.
"Bro, a convoy! A convoy composed of dozens of large SUVs, with a big Hummer leading the way! I secretly took some pictures with my phone! Here, take a look!"
Zhang Yang glanced at the photos on the phone and was suddenly taken aback.
The big Hummer itself wasn't anything special, Zhang Yang could afford to buy one outright if he wanted to play, but the number plate was the real gem.
The car's plate read 99999!
Needless to say, the value of that plate exceeds the value of the car itself.
