Wang Jie offered a mid-quality pearl, and you’re only giving me a few low-quality pearls. I’ll be a fool if I sell them to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei looked at Song Fei. Song Fei sniffed and said, “Be quiet! Let’s obey the rules. Yellow fish, sixteen sea coins per kilogram; white fish, eight sea coins per kilogram; green turtle, forty sea coins per kilogram. That blade is not for sale... If you want them, order them now; if you don’t, leave!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei sneered. You want my blade? Keep dreaming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was surprised that Song Fei backed the boy. What was his background?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, all the fish, except for a yellow fish Han Fei reserved for himself, were sold for 1,480 sea coins, which equaled 148 low-quality pearls or one and a half mid-quality pearls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the money came from the green turtles, which were expensive. It was not a lot, but many scoundrels in the port were already looking at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei had a headache after he received the money. He had to spend the money as soon as possible, or the money would be extorted from him the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei knew it, too, so he brought Han Fei to Wang Jie’s shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a fishing master, Wang Jie was naturally qualified to open a shop. His shop was in the golden area of the district.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the shop, Song Fei said, “Old Guan, I’ve brought business for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old man, who looked plain but shrewd, came to welcome him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei shared what happened with the old man. Immediately, the old man grinned. “Boy, it was not easy for you to survive a fish tide. Since my boss promised you a fishing pole, you can pick any of the poles in the shop as long as the price is lower than one mid-quality pearl.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei couldn’t tell the quality of the poles, but after a quick glance, he noticed that most of them were pegged at 18, 28, 58, or 68 low-quality pearls. There were about ten poles that cost 88 low-quality pearls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were only three fishing poles with a price higher than 88 pearls. They were labeled with 128, 168, and 188 respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei rolled his eyes and said, “Mr. Guan, can I have the one whose price is 128 low-quality pearls? Well, I can pay the extra money if it’s too much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei and Mr. Guan both understood. Everybody wanted a good fishing pole. They even thought that Han Fei would choose the 188-pearl one since he had the money!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei ran some calculations. He still had 120 low-quality pearls. There were too many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei asked, “Mr. Guan, do you have any Fish Head Body Polishing Fluid?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Guan was surprised. “Yes, but every bottle costs one mid-quality pearl. Are you sure you want one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei said, “Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Guan carefully took a bottle of bright green fluid from a box and said, “This is a real treasure. Even our shop only has a limited number of bottles. Remember, train immediately after you take it. The effect of the drug can last six hours at most.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei put it into his pocket. “Thank you, Mr. Guan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He left the shop with an iron fishing pole worth 128 low-quality pearls and a black dagger worth eight low-quality pearls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei said, “All right, you’ve spent all of your money. Prepare some food for yourself. I’ll go back now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Fei left, and Han Fei went straight to Zhang Han’s shop in the fish market through the main road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han was chatting with someone. He was surprised to see Han Fei. “Huh? You’re still alive?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei grinned. “I almost couldn’t make it back. Here’s the money that I owe you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han was stunned when Han Fei presented twelve low-quality pearls. How did the guy make so much money after a night on the ocean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh! Wait, he’s holding an iron fishing pole? That’s good stuff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han gasped. “You were the boy who survived the fish tide?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei smiled innocently. “It was pure luck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han was so jealous that he wanted to swindle Han Fei out of his money right there, but he couldn’t because Han Fei did not have any low-quality pearls. It wouldn’t end well if Han Fei reported him to the supervisors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han said, “All right, you have money now. Do you want some bait? One low-quality pearl for a box.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei sneered. Are you really taking me for a fool? It’s only worth eighty sea coins in other places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Han Fei merely smiled. “Manager Zhang, I have eight low-quality pearls left. I would like to buy some bait and clams. Do you have any?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Han’s eyes immediately glittered. “Of course! Brother Zhang will give you a special price!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, when Han Fei left for home, he carried dozens of clams and two boxes of bait with him. He had apparently spent two more low-quality pearls on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Han Fei was almost home, a few scoundrels showed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Han Fei expected, someone had been following him since he left the port.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ruthless fatty rubbed his fingers and approached him. “Boy, I’m told that you earned more than a hundred low-quality pearls today, didn’t you? Do you think it’s time you pay your protection fee?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei grinned. “Brothers, I did make some money, but I spent all of it! I don’t have any sea coins left now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enraged, the fatty shouted, “Liar! You spent 148 low-quality pearls in two hours? Who are you fooling? You have no respect for the Tigers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei was surprised. How did they know the specific amount he earned?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Fei raised his fishing pole and clams and said, “Brother, I did spend them! You know that I avoided the fish tide by sheer luck. I dedicated the Snakebelt that I encountered to Master Wang Jie, so he asked Brother Song Fei to shop in his store. All my money was spent there!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scoundrels were dazed. What? Master Wang Jie asked you to shop in his store?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t have looked more awful. Considering how lacking in intelligence they were, it was proof that scamming someone really did require skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring how Master Wang Jie had scammed a Snakebelt from him, he had even gotten this punk to spend at his store. No matter how the money flowed, it all entered his pockets. This was truly a great scam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fatty slapped Han Fei’s shoulder furiously. “Boy, be smarter next time. Seven days from now, you will pay me ten low-quality pearls as your protection fee. If you can’t... Hehe, you’ll certainly regret it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the scoundrels left, Han Fei sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven days? Hehe, in seven days, I’ll make you regret proposing such a demand.\u003C\u002Fp>",1159,"2026-05-30T03:18:31.979Z","2026-06-01T04:30:08.469Z",1,"novelbin.me","612cd427ebd8244cefb42dacd350e9765513f339a1ebadeabe8111cc7089434d","god-of-fishing-chapter-10","god-of-fishing-chapter-8",3714,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgod-of-fishing-cover.jpg"]
