Lin Mo sighed helplessly in his heart and said earnestly, “Brother, take down my cell phone number first, 138…”

“Besides auctions, they also buy goods directly. I said what I said earlier because I wanted to snatch a bargain. Just remember, if they don’t buy it, I’ll pay 200,000 to buy that vase from you.”

“You can rest assured now, right?”

Wang Erbo carefully noted Lin Mo’s number on his phone, bowing repeatedly with thanks: “Brother, you’re a good person… how… how should I thank you?”

“If it really sells at the price you mentioned, you’ll be our family’s savior!

A good person?

Lin Mo didn’t know if he could be considered a good person. Initially, he had even thought about cheating Wang Erbo, but now he was just acting according to his conscience.

He waved his hand and urged, “Hurry up and go in. Get the vase turned into money for your daughter’s surgery quickly. I, too, have a daughter; don’t waste any more time.”

“Remember this, your vase is worth around 300,000, the absolute lowest they should offer you is 260,000, that’s the rock-bottom price!”

According to the information provided by the Intelligence System, the vase was worth 300,000, but the auction house obviously wouldn’t do business without making a profit.

Wang Erbo nodded again and again, and after a torrent of gratitude, he finally entered the Yiyi Auction.

“There goes the 200,000 profit I could have had in my hands.

A pity?

Lin Mo sincerely felt quite regretful; he really wanted to earn that profit of over

200,000.

However, like many kind ordinary people, no matter how much they lament, think they’re being saintly, or feel foolish, when faced with a similar situation next time, they still can’t bring themselves to do it.

There’s no helping it,

being a good person is tough, but what many people don’t know is that being a bad person isn’t easy either.

The one who can commit bad deeds without any psychological burden is also certainly a character.

Of course, there was another very important reason: he now had the system and wasn’t short of opportunities to make money, so there was absolutely no need to go against his conscience for such ill-gotten gains.

After watching Wang Erbo enter the Yiyi Auction, Lin Mo headed towards a nearby place to charge electric vehicles.

Doing two good deeds in one morning, although the cooked 200,000 flew away, his mood was still surprisingly good.

After waiting a little while and making sure that Wang Erbo didn’t come out, he rode his bike towards the flower and bird market in the North City District.

It was just around to a.m. when he reached the market. The shop owners there were mostly old men, many of the stalls were not yet open, and there was not much business happening in the market.

After asking a security guard in the market, Lin Mo easily found a large fishing gear store.

The owner was a balding middle-aged man in his early 40s.

Seeing a customer enter, he put down his phone, stood up, and asked, “Welcome, what can I do for you, young man?”

Lin Mo looked at the dazzling array of fishing rods on the shelves and said, “I want to learn fishing. Do you have any complete sets of fishing gear you could recommend?”

His next plan was to go to Mingyuan Lake to make contact with a former leader of Rakshasa City.

According to the logic of the Intelligence System, the deeper the contact, the greater the possibility of obtaining information, so, of course, Lin Mo wouldn’t just go to Mingyuan Lake empty-handed.

That would be too conspicuous, and the purpose all too obvious.

So the best approach was to buy a set of fishing gear for himself and then disguising himself as a fisherman, quietly spend a few hours near that person.

If he really could get some useful information from him, that would be a real windfall!

“Is that so?” The store owner nodded, an experienced look on his face, and inquired, “Then where are you planning to fish? A wild pond? A reservoir? Sea fishing?”

“And which fishing methods are you interested in learning? Lure fishing? Rock fishing? Sea fishing? Spinning reels?”

Huh?

A whole bunch of professional jargon had Lin Mo feeling completely

bewildered.

He really didn’t know how to fish,

His limited memories of fishing were from when he was a child, using bamboo as a rod, the aluminum from the end of a toothpaste tube as a counterweight, and reed stems as floats; he had never heard of these professional pieces of

equipment.

After thinking for a bit, he said, “You know about Mingyuan Lake, right?” “I’m planning to go there to fish, just equip me with a set of fishing rods suitable for Mingyuan Lake.”

“Mingyuan Lake?” The shop owner thought for a moment and then said, “That place mostly has varieties like black carp, grass carp, common carp, silver carp, and bighead carp. Which one do you want to fish for?”

Good grief,

Not only is there a method to fishing, but even the type of fish you aim for is subdivided in such detail?

Lin Mo recalled some videos he occasionally saw on TikTok, and he couldn’t understand how the fishing industry had become so professional, with so many tools, and yet some people still returned empty-handed.

“Any kind is fine, just set me up with whatever is easiest.”

“The easiest would be fishing for common carp. I’ve got specialized carp fishing rods here, along with some really nice bait.” The shop owner turned around and took a complete set of carp fishing equipment from the shelf behind him: “Let me tell you, for carp fishing you’ve got to use earthworms, and for baiting the area you use moldy cake added to sesame oil.”

“Take a look at this set of gear. In total, it’ll cost you about 1,400 yuan.”

1,400?

I’m casting a line, and you’re charging me 1,400?

Lin Mo was starting to wonder if the owner was treating him like a pig for slaughter.

The owner was a sharp one and quickly discerned Lin Mo’s apprehension, saying generously, “My goods are all branded, that’s the price for them.” “If you don’t believe it, just take a picture of the same model and look it up online. But if you want something cheaper, I have that too.”

Lin Mo couldn’t be bothered to compare prices elsewhere, as his interest wasn’t really in the fishing. After scanning a QR code to pay, he said, “Alright, I’ll take this gear, but you’ve got to teach me how to use it. I really don’t know the first thing about any of this.”

The owner smiled and nodded: “Of course, all this is actually not that hard. I guarantee you’ll be able to learn it in no time!”

After learning some basic skills from the fishing tackle shop owner, Lin Mo rode his electric bike straight to Mingyuan Lake.

The distance was a bit far.

Lin Mo rode for almost an hour before finally arriving at the lakeside.

At first glance, the expansive waters of the lake shimmered under the sunlight, a rugged dance of light, and flocks of birds adorned the mirror-like surface from time to time.

The scenery was pretty nice.

“Phew…”

“I have to hurry up and buy a car, the electric bike just isn’t cutting it.

Although he now had money, he was used to being frugal, so Lin Mo hadn’t thought about renting a car that day.

“But this place is really beautiful. If I could get some free time later on, it would be wonderful to bring my wife and daughter here every day, to enjoy the „ scenery, go fishing, have picnics, and do a bit of small-scale barbecuing!

Lin Mo imagined a future full of happy days as he walked leisurely along the lake, while also looking for the figure of the former Rakshasa City leader.
