Chapter 451: Chapter 310 Changed
Hu Jun’s words, as expected, caught the attention of his classmates.
Guo Kunnan, “I want to ask, is there anything you’re afraid to catch?”
Lu Qiqi said, “I think there’s one terrifying thing he definitely wouldn’t dare to.”
Hu Jun, “Are you sure?”
Lu Qiqi, “Would you dare to catch a centipede?”
With the air of an expert, Hu Jun replied, “Coincidentally, I will be showing everyone the live centipede I just caught next.”
“Don’t blink, the surprise is coming right up!”
[Hu Jun has been muted]
Huang Zhongfei, “Let’s keep chatting, everyone, and not post weird stuff.”
Yu Wen, “Monitors are the best!”
Jiang Yanan, “Brilliant (clapping).”
After Hu Jun disappeared, Dan Kaiquan said, “Catching lobsters is too troubleso, I used to tie at with fine bamboo and string and cast it into the pond to fish for lobsters.”
“I could catch a lot in one afternoon.”
Dan Kaiquan, who grew up in the countryside, was familiar with fishing and catching shrimp.
As soon as he finished speaking, the usually quiet Bai Yuxia asked, “Is there any difference between fishing for lobsters and fishing for fish?”
Originally, Dan Kaiquan rely spoke out of interest, but who would have expected Bai Yuxia to suddenly speak up?
Surprise ca so unexpectedly, Dan Kaiquan was thrilled and began typing furiously.
Dong Qingfeng jumped in, “You can fish for lobsters? Do they bite the hook with their mouths?”
Guo Kunnan, “Lobsters have claws, they clamp onto the at tightly, stupidly so.”
Dong Qingfeng, “I stand corrected.”
After the two exchanged several comnts, Dan Kaiquan’s lengthy explanation ca through:
“Fishing for fish and shrimp is different, with fishing, you never know what kind of fish you’ll catch next, which is quite thrilling. Fishing for shrimp isn’t much different, it’s simpler and more suitable for beginners, plus the feel you get from shrimp fishing is very good. I like to tie a piece of frog at on the string, because the shrimp fishing pole is very short, so you can clearly feel the lobster biting and the dragging sensation.”
Dan Kaiquan’s text filled the entire chat screen, telling everyone that he had put his heart into it.
Bai Yuxia, “Got it, thanks.”
Just a simple thank you, and Dan Kaiquan smiled like a fool, his world bright and sunny.
Wang Longlong, “Frog at? That’s a waste, can I use a toad to catch shrimp?”
Guo Kunnan, “Can you be a bit nicer to the shrimps?”
Huang Yuzhu said, “Don’t ever use a toad to catch shrimp!”
Dong Qingfeng, “Why’s that?”
Huang Yuzhu, “Toads are poisonous. I accidentally stepped on one when I was a kid, and its toxic juice splashed into my right eye. Now my right eye doesn’t see as well as the left.”
Wang Longlong, “Is there a chance that you often play with your phone tilted, causing the difference in vision between your eyes?”
The chat in the class group was lively.
Geng Lu put away her phone and continued catching shrimp with Jiang Ning.
The riverbank was quiet, the weather was excellent with blue skies and white clouds, lifting everyone’s mood.
On the pond’s surface, ripples occasionally appeared, seemingly caused by the small fish.
Unfortunately, they were only catching shrimp today, not fishing.
The fish had escaped disaster.
As the sun gradually moved south, the sunlight beca more intense and dazzling. Geng Lu had checked the weather app on her phone before leaving, which showed a high of 32 degrees today.
She had thought it would be very hot, and her mother even advised her to choose another day.
However, Geng Lu didn’t care; it was a rare opportunity to play with Jiang Ning. Not even 42 degrees could stop her from going outside.
For so reason, Geng Lu didn’t feel hot; on the contrary, she felt a natural coolness all around her, extrely comfortable.
She just assud it was because they were near the river.
Xue Chuchu felt the sa, though Xue Yuantong did not notice at all.
In fact, Jiang Ning had intentionally cast a spell to control the temperature within a certain range, otherwise, it would have been too sunny and hot.
Catching shrimp went very smoothly; the bucket piled up with a lot of lobsters. At a glance, the dark red lobsters crowded together seed uncomfortable, yet there was also a joyful sense of harvest.
Jiang Ning weighed the bucket and felt its heft:
“I think that’s enough.”
Xue Chuchu went to the pond to wash her arms, dipping them in the water and scrubbing twice, her wrists muddy but gradually returning to their fair complexion:
“Yeah, let’s head back before too many lobsters in the bucket die.”
Xue Yuantong ran over to check, seeing so many shrimp, she was about to instinctively place her hands on her hips, but rembering her hands were muddy, she reluctantly dropped the gesture.
“I contributed half of these shrimp!”
Jiang Ning, “You’re amazing.”
“Of course,” Xue Yuantong accepted all his praise.
Hehe, today was a day for Jiang Ning to see Xue Yuantong in a new light.
Xue Chuchu turned on her phone, facing away from the sun, barely making out the ti on the screen.
“It’s past 10 o’clock, let’s wrap it up!”
Jiang Ning agreed; they still had to deal with the lobsters when they got back, which would also take ti.
Geng Lu admired the shrimp for a while, took a couple of photos, sent one to her mom, and then shared them in the class group chat and her usual art group.
Guo Kunnan, “That’s a lot, must be several pounds, right?”
Geng Lu asked Jiang Ning, getting the answer, “Almost 10 pounds.”
10 pounds of shrimp, easily over a hundred, most of which she and Xue Yuantong had caught together; she found it sowhat unbelievable now.
Jiang Ning was not surprised; while catching shrimp, he had not only cast an “Undamaged” spell on Xue Yuantong and Geng Lu but also subtly used his mana to suppress the lobsters in their hole, making this shrimp-catching exceptionally easy.
Zhang Chi in the group chat burst out, “10 pounds?”
Geng Lu, “Yeah, a lot of them.”
Zhang Chi asked, “How much is a pound of small lobsters now?”
ng Gui, “Around ten bucks, I guess.”
Zhang Chi, “So, the lobsters in this bucket could sell for over a hundred?”
ng Gui, “Probably.”
Zhang Chi, “I make 150 working a whole day at the construction site! Can I catch shrimp?”
