Back to the Past to Become a Fishing King-Chapter 644 - 374: The ‘Fat Pig’ Delivered to the Door

"Boss! Boss! Hehehe, can you tell me, where did my fishing setup go wrong? It looked fine, the performance was okay, but I ended up at the bottom! It's a bit frustrating!"

Xiaobao followed Zhang Yang into the restroom, only speaking after they were inside, with his signature sly grin.

Zhang Yang unbuckled his belt to relieve himself and grinned, "After a whole session, you didn't find where the problem was?"

"Uh, no, not really! The bobber's performance was good, the fish were active, and once I slightly lowered the hook, I could even catch a double! But when it came time to count the catch, I couldn't get the numbers! I'm just an unknown, it's fine for me to be at the bottom, but it's embarrassing for you!" Xiaobao continued.

"Damn! Are you trying to PUA me?" Zhang Yang laughed and glanced at Xiaobao. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Hehehe, no, no, that's what I really think! Tell me what's wrong! The next round is starting soon, if I know where to adjust, I still have time to prepare!"

Seeing Xiaobao getting to this point, Zhang Yang temporarily changed his mind and said, "Your bobber's weight is too light! It's too slow to tilt and settle, wasting time on its trajectory and tilt!"

"Damn it!" Xiaobao smacked his forehead, suddenly realizing.

Actually, during the fishing session, he had vaguely felt something was off. With Zhang Yang's guidance, he immediately figured it out.

"Understood? Figured it out?"

"Yeah! I was too focused on the bobber's performance and forgot about the tilting and settling time! I'm going back to switch to a bigger bobber!"

Xiaobao nodded repeatedly and turned to run back to his fishing spot.

With only five minutes of break time, Xiaobao had little time to adjust, so he was hurrying out of the restroom.

Just as he turned a corner out of the restroom, he didn't react in time and bumped head-on into a middle-aged man wearing a new Shimano outdoor jacket.

"Damn, are you blind? Can't you watch where you're going?" The other man, caught off guard, cursed immediately.

"Sorry... sorry!" Xiaobao's lip was scraped by the man's zipper, and as he opened his mouth to speak, blood started flowing, so he quickly covered it with his hand.

"Where's this reckless kid from? Didn't your parents teach you to be careful when you leave the house?" The man glanced at Xiaobao and continued to scold with a stern face.

"Yo, Master Liu, you're so angry this early in the morning! Xiaobao is my little brother, I'm really sorry!" At this moment, Zhang Yang, who was a step behind, called out.

Hearing Zhang Yang's greeting, the cursing Master Liu looked up, and after recognizing Zhang Yang, his expression changed slightly, and he finally stopped swearing.

"Oh, it's you, Zhang Yang! So, are you bringing your little brother to the Winter Fishing Hall today? Aren't your guys over at Brother Meng's big pit?" Master Liu continued to speak.

"Yan Ge and his friends are at Brother Meng's more often. We're here to practice in the warm shed! Xiaobao, say hello, this gentleman is Teacher Ma Yuhua's last disciple, Master Liu Xiaodong!" Zhang Yang introduced.

"Hello, Brother Liu! I'm really sorry!" Although Xiaobao was scolded, he repeatedly apologized.

"What is it? A new apprentice? The kid looks alright, just a bit reckless!" Liu Xiaodong ignored Xiaobao and turned to talk to Zhang Yang.

"He's a friend's child who wanted to learn, so I brought him along! Xiaobao, you go back and adjust your bobber. I'll have a word with Brother Liu!"

"Sure!" Xiaobao, feeling relieved, turned and headed back to his fishing spot.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how long has it been, and you're already taking on apprentices. Quite impressive from the young ones!" Liu Xiaodong said with a hint of sarcasm.

In the competitive fishing circle of W City, Liu Xiaodong is definitely a well-known figure. His teacher, Ma Yuhua, was a disciple of Hua Shaoxin, making Liu Xiaodong Hua Shaoxin's grand-disciple. He has no shortage of money, so he's always active around the black pits and competitive arenas.

However, Zhang Yang didn't have a good impression of him. He has money but no respect for others, just like his teacher Ma Yuhua, a typical opportunist.

"Did you come alone? Or are you meeting friends? It's been a while since I've seen Brother Ma!" Zhang Yang intentionally changed the subject to talk about Ma Yuhua.

While asking, Zhang Yang also had a bit of his own agenda, referring to Ma Yuhua as Brother Ma instead of Teacher Ma.

This term implied that Zhang Yang and Ma Yuhua were on a brotherly level, making Ma Yuhua's disciple, Liu Xiaodong, naturally a generation lower than Zhang Yang! Liu Xiaodong's words had a hint of sarcasm, so Zhang Yang wasn't about to let him off easy either.

"My teacher and they will be here soon, they just called and are on Zhiyuan Road now! How about it, when everyone is here, shall we have a little competition?" Liu Xiaodong asked with a hint of provocation in his tone.

Hearing this chance for an easy victory, Zhang Yang immediately agreed, "Sure! We've already had one round! Brother Da and his friends are all here! The more, the merrier; it's been a while since we all played together!"

"Then it's settled! I'll unload my gear first! See you later!"

Liu Xiaodong nodded slightly, turned, and walked out of the warm shed, heading straight for his BMW 525 parked outside.

Zhang Yang leisurely returned to his fishing spot and said to Brother Da, "Brother Da, Teacher Ma's bringing people over! Should we wait for them?"

"Teacher Ma? Ma Yuhua?" Brother Da furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing this, using a certain tone to ask.

In the fishing circle of W City, there's hardly anyone with the surname Ma who can be respectfully called Teacher besides Ma Yuhua.
