The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 84 - 83 ’Infinite Strength’ Buff!

In fact, a few cobblers together might not necessarily make a Zhuge Liang.

The discussion about the archaeological excavation proposal for Marquis Wu Ying's tomb went on for four whole hours, and the plan still wasn't finalized.

But the one thing that could be confirmed was that the current reserve of archaeological excavation technology was not an issue; it would not lead to damage of the tomb or the relics during the digging process.

The excavation could be carried out with the maximum degree of protection.

The overall difficulty of this excavation was somewhat lower than salvaging a thousand-year-old sunken ship.

And the preliminary preparations would also be quicker.

But this dull and tedious discussion of the plan was putting Fang Hao to sleep.

At this moment, he regretted attending such a meeting.

Why agree to something so energetically when he could be out fishing instead?

But since he had promised Han Weixiang to show his face and get familiar, there was nothing he could do but hold out.

After an enduring four-hour discussion, the plan discussion came to a temporary close; the overall plan wasn't out yet, but at least the local technical issues were resolved.

Seeing the mess they had been discussing before, Fang Hao just couldn't stand it any longer, and in the second half of the meeting, he offered two or three suggestions, helping to solve the most difficult technical problems.

This refreshed everyone's opinion of him.

Now they finally understood why Han Weixiang and Zhang Tianhe had recommended him as a special advisor for the National Cultural Relics Bureau.

In this moment, no one had any more objections to Fang Hao's identity.

Including the two people from the National Cultural Relics Bureau, their gaze towards Fang Hao had changed.

After the four-hour meeting discussion, Fang Hao didn't join everyone for the meal.

He slipped away.

Because he received a message from a fishing buddy, Brother Zhang, telling him his wife was back from her parents' house, and they were inviting him for dinner.

Hehe, little guy...

Your uncle completely forgot about last time's incident, I'm not one to hold grudges, I just genuinely want to bring you some gifts.

The gifts he planned to bring for dinner at their house were already thought out.

After leaving the conference room, he headed straight for the bookstore.

And there, he bought all the learning materials, revision books, middle school exam drills, Huanggang Middle School practice papers... from elementary to high school in one go.

Having bought a pile of learning materials, Fang Hao put them into his car, placed them on the back seat, planning to bring them to dinner later.

When the kid saw the gifts Fang Hao brought, he was moved to tears and cheerfully greeted Fang Hao's entire family tree.

He expressed that the gifts were great and he really liked them, but please don't come again next time.

...

After returning home, Fang Hao finally had time to check on the system rewards from earlier.

Two Platinum Treasure Boxes were stored in the System Space.

His mood was quite good.

One Platinum Treasure Box was happiness, two Platinum Treasure Boxes, that was double the joy.

[Would you like to open the Treasure Chest now?]

The system sent an inquiry.

Fang Hao decided to open both treasure chests at the same time.

"Open now."

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring a Lure Rod and a set!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring a Tank 300 modified vehicle!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring 'Infinite Strength' usage cards *10!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring a 2.4-meter nano boron fiber fishing rod (sea fishing)!]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring an Ocean Life Atlas!]

...

As the two Treasure Chests opened, a stream of reward information arrived one after another.

This time, the rewards were diverse and varied in type.

First up were the fishing rods, with two kinds on offer, one Lure Rod and one sea fishing rod.

This was the first time Fang Hao had received a Lure Rod and he had never bought one himself, having only seen some fishing friends use them.

The Lure Rod is used for catching carnivorous fish.

The bait it uses is bionic, eliminating the need to prepare one's own bait.

The freshwater Lure Rod received by Fang Hao is something many people use for catching perch.

As for the other sea fishing rod, it was different from the one he received last time, with a different length.

The previous one was 3.6 meters long, categorized as a long rod.

A long rod is beneficial for playing fish and long-distance casting.

And this time, the reward was a 2.4-meter sea fishing rod, categorized as a short rod.

A short rod's advantage is that it's less restricted by the fishing spot.

Generally, if you go to sea to fish, such as deep-sea fishing, choosing a rod longer than three meters is better; but if it's fishing from the seashore, then a two-meter rod would be better as it's easier to handle, and it won't shake too fiercely in strong winds.

You use the right type of rod for each setting.

That's why fishing can be costly – just the rods alone require a good amount of money.

Fortunately, Fang Hao had fishing rods rewarded by the System, which saved him a lot of money.

After looking at the fishing rod rewards, Fang Hao moved on to the next one.

It was a car, a modified Tank 300.

A Tank not modified might as well be pushed into the sea.

This Tank 300 had been specially modified by the System, and its performance greatly surpassed that of the original vehicle.

Since he was at home, he couldn't bring the actual car out from the System Space right now; he would have to wait until he got to the garage, then he could bring out the car.

However, based on the description, the modifications to this Tank 300 were mainly in terms of shock absorption and the addition of an underbody skid plate, followed by the addition of an auxiliary fuel tank which increased the cruising range, allowing travel to farther places.

Also, both the front and rear bumpers and the sides were replaced with metal, enhancing crash protection.

The car modifications improved the vehicle's self-rescue, traversal, and escape abilities.

Perhaps the System also knew that the places where fishing happens might be difficult to access, so it rewarded a car with impressive off-road capabilities.

Fang Hao wasn't demanding when it came to cars – as long as it run, it was good enough.

This was why, even after earning some money, he hadn't changed cars and was still driving his old beater.

It was not about sentimentality or attachment; he simply felt it was unnecessary.

Since he often went fishing and sometimes the fishing spots had poor road conditions, it made no sense to get a nicer car.

Perhaps the System couldn't bear to watch any longer and had rewarded him with a car.

Now that he had received the car reward, Fang Hao decided to simply switch and planned to take care of his old car later on, selling it for a few thousand or ten thousand would do.

After looking at the car reward, Fang Hao immediately noticed a card reward.

An 'Infinite Strength' use card.

The literal meaning was clear – it would give the user a buff of infinite strength.

Is this in case I run into a big fish while fishing and don't have the strength to reel it in?

In freshwater fishing, he wasn't particularly worried.

After all, freshwater fish, even if larger, couldn't grow too big.

It's not like he was fishing in the Amazon, where one might reel in fish weighing hundreds of pounds.

But domestically, landing a silver carp or bighead carp weighing twenty or thirty pounds was already quite an achievement.

However, for sea fishing, the fish caught were generally much larger, with twenty or thirty pounds being considered small.

It's common to see fish weighing tens or even hundreds of pounds.

But when you reel in such large fish, a lack of strength could result in the fish pulling you into the sea.

Even for a fish of the same weight, seawater fish struggle much more violently than freshwater fish.

Therefore, sea fishing requires not only skill but also decent physical strength.
