I Have A City In An Alternate World

Chapter 1807 - 1807 Fishing competition (1)

1807 Fishing competition (1)

After hearing Leah’s introduction, Tang Zhen was a little interested.

A banquet was set up in front of the deep pit that led to the bottom of the sea. Fishing and shrimp were cooked on the spot, accompanied by fine wine and tea. It was also an extreme enjoyment.

“I want to try it out. Why don’t you come with me?”

Tang Zhen looked at Leah and extended an invitation.

!!

“Sure, let’s go together.”

As her grandfather had a very good impression of Tang Zhen and was also very curious about him, Leah didn’t refuse his invitation.

This was not in line with her usual personality. Other than the necessary things, Leah spent most of her time doing experiments and reading.

In the past, when she encountered such a situation, she would reject it immediately. However, she agreed very happily this time.

“Why don’t you count me in? we can book a deep pit and relax together.”

White’s voice was heard again. He had been looking for an opportunity to get close to Leah for the past few days, but all he got was an indifferent reply.

It was precisely because of this that his eyes burned with jealousy when he looked at Tang Zhen. He had even treated Tang Zhen as the biggest obstacle.

He would not rest until he killed Tang Zhen.

On the surface, however, white didn’t seem to be acting strangely. In fact, he was even more enthusiastic than before and got along very well with the other members of the team.

The other party members were also happy to do so. Being able to build a good relationship with the city Lord’s son would be beneficial to their future development.

Before Leah could say anything, white called out to the owner of the wine and shop, asking him to book an empty pit next to it.

Warter would not let go of such an opportunity to show off his wealth and get close to Leah.

“No need, boss. We’ll pay for this table.”

Leah didn’t pay attention to white. She spoke to the owner beside her and was about to take out gold coins to pay.

However, just as her voice fell, a Gold Card flicked out of Tang Zhen’s hand and flew into the boss’s hand.

“If you want a refund more than a refund, please bring out any special dishes you have here.”

The innkeeper looked at the Gold Card in his hand and quickly nodded in agreement. At the same time, he called the waiter to serve the wine and food.

White, who was beside him, sneered in disdain.

From White’s point of view, this was Tang Zhen’s self-esteem acting up.

A foreigner of unknown origin, no matter how rich he was, how could he compare to him, the son of the city Lord?

It was a pity that this was not the place to fight for wealth. Otherwise, white would definitely let Tang Zhen experience what it meant that gold coins could also kill people.

It didn’t take long for the inn’s staff to bring in fishing equipment. In addition, the table was filled with a variety of dried fruits and specialty dishes.

In the middle of the table, the waiter lit the Golden charcoal at the bottom of the pot and then placed the wine pot to the side to heat it.

“This is our store’s special wine. With the fresh fish and prawns caught from the deep pit, the taste is guaranteed to be unforgettable.”

While the waiter was introducing the fish, he handed a fishing rod and a small can of specially made bait to Tang Zhen and Leah, who were sitting on both sides of the table.

A table could only seat two people. After Tang Zhen and Leah sat together, white could only sit beside them.

Sitting at the same table with him was a female apprentice artisan. She seemed to be interested in white and would always take the initiative to talk about him.

The chances of becoming an artisan were very low, but if she could become the daughter-in-law of the city Lord, she would also have sufficient status.

Not everyone was like Leah, who had the qualifications and confidence to look down on white, who was of equal social status.

Tang Zhen didn’t care about white, who was gloating and deliberately showing off in front of Leah. Instead, he hooked the bait and threw it into the deep pit.

The pit was about 15 meters in diameter and was said to lead straight to the bottom of the ocean. Because of the glowing minerals, the deep blue ocean water was bright and transparent, and the depths could be seen.

From Tang Zhen’s angle, he could see many fish and prawns swimming back and forth in the sea. Fishing in such an environment was quite interesting.

“It’s boring to just sit there and fish. Why don’t we have a competition to see who can catch the most valuable fish and shrimp?”

White’s voice was heard again. He was always looking for his presence to attract Leah’s attention.

The other members of the adventurer team nodded one after another. It was indeed boring to just bury their heads in fishing. No matter who won or lost in the competition, it could indeed liven up the atmosphere.

“Since no one objects, then we’ll use each table as a unit. The time is one hour, and then we’ll calculate the harvest.

In order to make the bet more interesting, everyone please take out an item as a wager. The value is not less than 10000 gold coins.

After the tally is done, all of them will belong to the winner. What does everyone think?”

Warter suggested again, and this time, no one objected. Ten thousand gold coins were indeed nothing to them.

Of course, to ordinary people, this was a huge gamble. Just hearing it would make one’s heart tremble.

Tang Zhen and Leah also took out an item and placed it on the tray the waiter was carrying. Then, they stared at their fishing rods.

Warter chuckled to himself. He had suggested this bet because he had a special item that could attract creatures with special bloodlines.

This was his father’s treasure, used to attract the precious creatures in the ruins. White had secretly taken it out before leaving home.

If this kind of thing was used well, it could save one’s life and also be used to trick people.

With this item, white was confident that he could win the bet and show off in front of Leah.

After stealthily mixing that item into the bait, white threw out his hook and anxiously waited.

Tang Zhen naturally noticed White’s actions and chuckled without a care. At the same time, a trace of Origin Energy appeared and silently mixed into the bait.

The other artisan apprentices were not idle either. They were all carefully mixing bait to increase the attraction of the fish and shrimp.

This wasn’t actually cheating, but each of them showing off their own abilities. Among the customers nearby, there were many who had brought their own special bait.

There were even people who made a living by doing this. They reserved a table in the tavern all year round and tried to catch those extremely precious fish and shrimp.

...

In addition to the delicious taste, some of the fish and shrimp were also experimental materials needed by artisans, so they were quite expensive.

In addition to the value of these fish and shrimp, the reward for winning was also quite attractive. Although the items taken out by the crowd were not particularly precious, the total value was still hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

For an artisan apprentice, this was enough to support the expenses of dozens of experiments, so he would naturally work hard to win it.

Just as Tang Zhen and the rest cast their hooks, the seawater in the deep pit in front of them immediately became restless. Looking down from above, they saw that the sea was actually filled with the figures of fish and shrimp.

When the inn’s waiter saw this, he couldn’t help but exclaim because he had never seen such a strange scene before.

As they cried out in alarm, everyone raised their fishing rods and pulled the colorful fish and prawns ashore.

There were ordinary fish and shrimp, which could be bought for a basket with a few silver coins. There were also relatively rare species, each of which could be worth several gold coins.

Seeing that everyone was fishing one after another, the customers at the side also became interested and came to watch the fun.

did you see that? that guy caught a fine-scaled snake fish. This kind of fish is hard to get hooked. This one can be sold for at least 20 gold coins.

the fish that beauty caught are the truly rare ones. They’re called red-eyed golden orbs, and they’re one of the materials that artisans purchase. Each of them is worth at least 100 gold coins!

“Look, look, the young master beside the beauty is the one with the guard. Did he Catch a Fire-scale fish?”

...

that’s right, it’s a fire-scale fish. When it’s moving, it’s as if there’s a flame burning on its body. One of them can be sold for at least 500 gold coins!

Oh my God, who are these people? how did they catch all the rare good things? ”

didn’t you see the badges on their bodies? these are probably all artisans. They must be very capable. Otherwise, how could such a scene appear? ”

I didn’t come here in vain today. This is the first time I’ve seen a group of artisans fishing. It’s really an eye-opener!

The onlookers discussed animatedly. White proudly glanced at Tang Zhen beside him and threw the fire-scale fish he had just caught into the bucket.

Up until now, Tang Zhen hadn’t caught a single fish. This made white incomparably carefree.

“Trying to steal the limelight from me, young master white? you’re not worthy!”

Leah was also full of doubts. She didn’t understand why Tang Zhen couldn’t catch a single fish. Was it because of bad luck?

Feeling white and Leah’s gaze, Tang Zhen smiled gently and appeared very calm.

How could ordinary fish and shrimp sense the origin Energy? therefore, the bait that Tang Zhen cast would only catch the truly extraordinary treasures!
