Chapter 194 I Wronged You, System
Chapter 194 I Wronged You, System
Everyone on the shore thought Wu Bin’s luck was simply defying heaven.
But Wu Bin, submerged in the sea, was exploding with frustration.
Because he had no idea how much these fish were worth.
"This damn system, why is it all fish!"
"Could it be that all ten draws are going to be fish?"
Just as Wu Bin was thinking this, he heard the system notification sound in his mind.
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the tenth draw reward—a big yellow fish!]
Shit!
It’s another fish!
Can’t you give me something practical!
Wu Bin complained, but still obediently opened his hands, waiting for the reward to refresh.
Soon, a rope drifted up from under the water.
Wu Bin casually grabbed the rope.
A fishing net?
Didn’t you say you were giving me a big yellow fish?
Just as Wu Bin was thinking this, suddenly a huge creature shot up from the seabed and slammed directly into Wu Bin.
Holy shit!
What a big fish!
Wu Bin felt as if he’d been hit by a strong man, almost having the wind knocked out of him.
What was worse, after colliding with Wu Bin, the big yellow fish tried to swim away into the distance.
Hit me and you want to leave?
Stubbornness surged in Wu Bin, as he grabbed onto a rock on the seabed with one hand and held onto the rope tightly with the other.
The net entangled the big yellow fish, which struggled in vain to slip away from Wu Bin’s grasp.
Wu Bin wasn’t having an easy time either.
The big yellow fish was large and strong.
Wu Bin even thought that if the net hadn’t come from the system, it probably would have been torn apart, allowing the big yellow fish to escape long ago.
Onshore, a group of people got anxious when they saw Wu Bin hadn’t surfaced after diving down.
"Why hasn’t Wu Bin come up yet? Yourong, quickly dive in and see what’s happening!"
Yin Yourong made an understanding gesture, then plunged into the water.
She quickly spotted Wu Bin, locked in a stalemate with the big yellow fish underwater.
Yin Yourong was startled.
Worried about Wu Bin running out of oxygen, she wanted to go help him surface first.
But Wu Bin shook his head, using a nodding gesture to signal for Yin Yourong to go up and ask for help.
Luckily, Yin Yourong was no fool and understood what Wu Bin meant.
She immediately surfaced and shouted to the people on the shore.
"Hurry up and help, Wu Bin has caught a huge fish! He is running out of breath!"
"I’m on it!"
As soon as they heard that Wu Bin had caught another fish, Dong Xianhe was the first one to rush over.
Behind Dong Xianhe, a dozen fishermen followed suit.
They came both for Dong Xianhe’s safety and to see what kind of fish Wu Bin had caught that was keeping him from surfacing.
Dong Xianhe and these fishermen all made their living from the sea, so they were all strong swimmers.
When they saw Wu Bin clinging to a fishing net on the seabed, they didn’t think twice and went straight up to grab the net, helping Wu Bin drag the fish to shore.
Once Wu Bin was safely on land, Dong Xianhe and the fishermen turned their attention to the fish inside the net.
Just one look made their scalps tingle, and without another word, they picked up the net again and plunged the fish back into the sea to soak.
"Why are you putting it back in the sea? What if the fish escapes?"
Dong Xianhe said excitedly, "Don’t worry, it absolutely can’t escape!"
"With so many of us surrounding it, even if we drowned, we definitely wouldn’t let this fish get away!"
He Bingbing didn’t understand why Dong Xianhe was so excited.
But the next second, Dong Xianhe ran up to Wu Bin, extremely thrilled, and said, "Four million! I’ll pay five million for your big yellow fish, how about it?"
Upon hearing Dong Xianhe say this, Wu Bin was momentarily stunned.
The first reaction was that this person had gone crazy.
It was just a fish, would anyone be willing to pay four million for a fish?
Was this old geezer over here messing with him?
Seeing that Wu Bin hadn’t said anything, Dong Xianhe thought he was dissatisfied with the price.
Dong Xianhe gritted his teeth and continued to raise the offer.
"A flat rate, five million!"
Perhaps worried that Wu Bin wouldn’t agree, or possibly because he was feeling the pinch himself.
Dong Xianhe began to reason with him and play on his emotions.
"Young man, I’ve sized up this large yellow croaker of yours, it’s about one hundred and seventy jin or so."
"You’ve set a record here!"
"The last yellow croaker fish king, one hundred and sixty jin, sold for around four million at auction."
"I’m now willing to spend five million to buy this large yellow croaker, I’m sincere enough, right?"
Upon hearing Dong Xianhe say this, the netizens in the live stream immediately started a flurry of discussion.
"Holy shit, it’s actually a wild large yellow croaker weighing more than one hundred and seventy jin! Wu Bro is going to make a fortune this time!"
"So this person isn’t just going for show, he’s serious?"
"Buddy, they’ve already said it, haven’t they? The last fish king sold for over four million, so Wu Bro’s fish should at least start at four and a half million, right?"
"This is outrageous, just too outrageous! Why does Wu Bro stumble upon such good stuff just by taking a dip in the sea, he must be cheating!"
Not to mention the netizens who didn’t understand, even the fishermen living nearby didn’t get it.
These are deep-sea fish, ah!
How did you catch them near the shore?
What, the deep sea lacks oxygen, so they came to the shallow water for a stroll?
Such things could indeed happen, but how small is the chance!
Yet, Wu Bin somehow encountered it.
Where could you even begin to argue this.
Wu Bin also gathered from the reactions around him by this time.
This wasn’t a prank, but the real deal.
The old geezer in front of him actually wanted to spend five million on a fish!
This was a stroke of luck you couldn’t find even with a lantern!
Wu Bin did not hesitate at all and immediately said, "Good! It’s a deal!"
Seeing Wu Bin agree so readily, Dong Xianhe struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Since the big yellow croaker has been sold, how about selling me those other fish you caught earlier as well?"
"Rest assured, I won’t let you suffer a loss; I’ll buy them from you at market price."
Dong Xianhe quoted a price on the spot.
"The previous fish total four hundred and ten thousand, plus five million for this one, I’ll transfer five million four hundred and ten thousand to you in total, what do you think?"
Miser Wu Bin didn’t hesitate at all, took out his mobile phone at the fastest speed, pulled up his "Get Rich" payment code, and showed it to Dong Xianhe.
Ding.
"Get Rich has received a payment of fifty-four million and one hundred thousand yuan."
Hearing this crisp and pleasant sound, everyone around looked at Wu Bin with envious eyes.
Song Bing and his group didn’t say a word; they immediately dived into the area where Wu Bin had just been.
If they could also find a large yellow croaker, wouldn’t they too make a fortune?
Alright, even if they didn’t find a large yellow croaker, a small one would do, right!
Wu Bin didn’t go back into the water.
It wasn’t that he was contented, but he had already used up the ten consecutive draws given by the system.
At this moment, Wu Bin felt guilty for a second.
Just now, he had blamed the system for not giving him anything good.
Looking at it now, it seemed he had wronged the system.
The system was still reliable.
While Wu Bin was thinking this, the system notification sound rang in his mind again.
[Lucky consecutive draw has ended]
[Your new disease is ready for selection]
Wu Bin: …
