Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao

I haven't caught any fish here and two hours have passed.

Cao Wei also became a little impatient, so he took the bait off the hook.

He wanted to try out the special effects of the fishing gear directly to see if it was really that magical and could catch fish directly.

Cao Wei swung the club down again.

He had just put down the rod, and before Cao Wei could sit down, there was a noise in the water.

There was a huge pulling force coming from underwater.

He almost pulled the fishing rod out of Cao Wei's hand.

Cao Wei grabbed the fishing rod and started fighting the fish in the water.

Uncle Ma on the side saw the movement on Cao Wei's side and the splashes on the water.

He suddenly cried out in surprise.

“A big fish!”

Uncle Ma's surprise instantly attracted Yan Bugui's attention.

Yan Bugui thought that Ma Baoguo had caught a big fish and was shocked.

When he saw Ma Baoguo put down his fishing rod and walk towards Cao Wei, he realized that it was Cao Wei that had caught the big fish.

Looking at Cao Wei pulling hard and the movement on the water, the third uncle felt that this fish must be big.

Thinking of this, he put down the fishing rod in his hand and prepared to go and see what was going on to see if Cao Wei could pull up the big fish.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the uncle put down the fishing rod, a splash occurred on the side of his fishing float.

It turned out that the third uncle was about to catch a fish, but the fish was frightened away by his shaking movements.

Ma Baoguo saw this scene and couldn't stop laughing. The third uncle was so angry that he slapped his thigh.

The fish that was about to reach his mouth flew away, and the uncle was so angry.

"Yan Laokou, you have such bad luck. You'd better bow your head and surrender. Otherwise, you will really lose." Ma Baoguo teased with a smile.

“It’s not certain who will lose.”

Yan Bugui said unhappily.

The fish that was about to be caught by the Third Uncle slipped away, and he was mocked by Ma Baoguo. It would be a miracle if he was not angry.

"This must be the young man from your yard. This fish must be big. It must be about five or six kilograms."

Ma Baoguo was amazed. He had just learned from Yan Bugui that Cao Wei was from the same courtyard as Yan Bugui. This was his first time fishing, but he didn't expect to catch a big one.

Soon, Cao Wei pulled the fish to the shore, picked up the scoop net, and scooped the fish up directly.

"Wow, this must be a carp. It's so big."

Uncle Ma came over and looked at the big fish in Cao Wei's hand and was very shocked.

He has often fished here in recent years, but has rarely seen a fish bigger than this one.

He gestured and found that it was longer than his arm.

Including the tail, it is about 70 to 80 centimeters.

Cao Wei's face was full of smiles. It was so cool that he could actually catch such a big fish.

Although it was the effect of the fishing gear rewarded by the system, Cao Wei was still very happy.

The third uncle's eyes were wide open.

It turned out that Cao Wei, a novice, was able to catch such a big fish, which looked to weigh at least ten kilograms.

"No, why should he?"

This was the only thought in Yan Bugui's mind.

He had been fishing in Shichahai for a long time, but he had never caught such a big fish. The largest one was no more than ten kilograms. He had never seen a fish like Cao Wei's.

"Cao Wei, you are so amazing."

The third uncle watched Cao Wei put the fish into the fish net bag and was extremely envious. He wished the fish were his own.

"Good luck, good luck."

Cao Wei looked at Yan Bugui, who was emitting a hint of jealousy, and responded happily.

At this time, Ma Baoguo on the side said: "Young man, you don't have to be modest, you are better than this Yan Laokou."

"Old Yan, you just wanted to teach that young man a lesson, but now all your weight combined is not as heavy as one of his. I don't know how you can have the nerve to say you want to teach him a lesson."

"If you hadn't been yelling just now, I could have caught a big fish."

Yan Bugui was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring. He thought of the fish that had just escaped. If he caught that fish, it would definitely be bigger than Ma Baoguo.

Ma Baoguo smiled without saying anything, sat back and continued fishing.

Yan Bugui's eyes rolled around, and he moved closer to Cao Wei, smelling the corn kernels with the aroma of wine.

He felt that it must be a problem with Cao Wei's bait. There was no difference between him and Cao Wei, and he was much better than Cao Wei in terms of technology. Then why couldn't he catch any fish but Cao Wei could?

There is no other reason except bait.

"Xiao Wei, I think you can't use up all the bait, how about lending some to Uncle San?"

The third uncle asked with a smile.

Cao Wei didn't care and just nodded in agreement.

What the third uncle didn't know was that Cao Wei's bait was just a very ordinary bait, and catching fish had nothing to do with the bait; it was all thanks to the fishing gear.

After all, Cao Wei also used this bait in the previous two hours, but ended up not catching a single fish.

Of course, Cao Wei would definitely not tell the third uncle about this.

The third uncle took a handful of corn bait and went fishing happily.

An hour later, the uncle didn't catch a single fish using Cao Wei's bait.

I used to be able to catch some small whitebait using earthworms, but now even the small whitebait won’t bite the hook.

Seeing that Ma Baoguo was still catching fish, the third uncle had no choice but to give up and return his red earthworms.

Soon, the morning passed.

Cao Wei caught another big fish weighing more than ten kilograms.

The three uncles watching were filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.

He felt that if he insisted on using Cao Wei's bait, he might also be able to catch such a big fish.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine for Uncle San in this world.

"Old Yan, are you convinced now? If you are, I will let you go."

Ma Baoguo was holding the basket of fish and looking at Yan Bugui with a smile. He had made a very good harvest in the past two hours, catching one fish every now and then, so he ran to Yan Bugui to show off.

"I give in. I'm not as good as you at fishing. Okay."

Yan Bugui was very helpless. He didn't know what had gone wrong today. He only caught some small whitebait and two palm-sized crucian carps. Not to mention comparing with Cao Wei, he didn't even catch half of Ma Baoguo's.

So now he can only admit defeat.

Otherwise, you really can only learn to bark like a puppy.

He and Ma Baoguo have been fishing friends for many years, otherwise they wouldn't have made such a joke.

Ma Baoguo was deliberately giving him a slope to go down, so he just went down it.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to admit defeat in front of Cao Wei, it is much better than barking like a puppy.

"Hey, we are not as good at fishing as this guy. He caught more than 20 kilograms of fish in one go."

Ma Baoguo looked at the fish in Cao Wei's hand and was also very envious.

"I'm just lucky, I don't have any real ability."

Cao Wei smiled and responded.

"Young man, do you want to buy this fish? I want to buy one to take home."

When Yan Bugui heard this, he immediately became interested and quickly said, "I want to buy it, too."

Cao Wei thought about it and decided that he couldn't finish eating the two fish, so he might as well buy another one.

"I can sell it, but I can only sell one of the two fish. I want to keep the other one for myself. If you both want one, it will be hard to divide it."

Hearing that Cao Wei agreed, Ma Baoguo naturally turned his eyes to Yan Bugui.

"Okay, you want it, I don't want it."

Yan Bugui had just accepted a favor from Ma Baoguo, so it would be difficult for him to snatch it from him now. Therefore, he could only give up reluctantly.

Ma Baoguo nodded with satisfaction. Fortunately, he gave in to the old man just now, otherwise he might not be able to buy the fish.

"Okay, Uncle Ma, I'll sell you the grass carp, and I'll take the carp back to braise."

Ma Baoguo and his team didn't have a scale, and it was difficult to weigh the fish, so they estimated the weight with their hands, "Let's say this is 15 jin, and at 40 cents per jin, that's 6 yuan."

Cao Wei felt that the grass carp might not weigh more than 15 kilograms, so he declined it slightly.

"This fish should not be less than 15 kilograms. Please calculate it as 12 kilograms."

"Hey, such a big fish is very rare these days. I'm taking advantage of you by buying it. I'll just charge you 15 kilograms."

As he spoke, Ma Baoguo counted out six dollars from his pocket and handed it to Cao Wei.

Cao Wei had no choice but to accept it.

Afterwards, Ma Baoguo handed the small fish in the fish basket to the third uncle.

"Mr. Yan, I'll sell you these fish for fifty cents. Do you want some?"

Old Man Ma asked.

I bought this big fish myself, so I can't let Mr. Yan go back empty-handed.

The fish he had weighed about two kilograms, just enough to give to Old Yan so that he could have a good meal when he returned home.

"Fifty cents, here you go."

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up. There were quite a few fish in Old Man Ma's fish basket, so he would definitely make a profit by buying them for fifty cents.

Whether he took it home to eat or something else, it would definitely not be a loss, so Yan Bugui agreed readily.
