"Did you go shopping? So many fish? No way, I contributed half of this! You used my Rod!"
At the mention of the Rod, Head Brother paused for a moment, quickly grabbing the Iso Rod beside him. He couldn't return this Rod to Shi Tian just yet; at the very least, he had to wait until Shi Tian finished making his own Rod!
"Why are you being so polite with me? It's all yours! Hurry up and move it to the Ice Chamber! If it's not enough, just let me know and I'll get you more bait. Once we’re done here, all the fish I catch will be yours! Aren't I good to you?" He patted Shi Tian on the shoulder, covering the box with a flourish.
"Brother, you're so generous! So, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll go make it for you!" Shi Tian eagerly replied, pulling the box closer.
After moving the box into the Ice Chamber, he returned to his room and grabbed a ten-meter Hand Rod. He took his fishing set and sat down on the back deck, starting to rig up right in front of Head Brother and a few others.
Watching Shi Tian rigging his Hand Rod and Fishing Set in front of them left several people bewildered.
"You're here at sea playing with a Hand Rod? What’s going on? It’s not that you can’t use a Hand Rod at sea, but usually, you’d use it by the shore! Who fishes on a boat? Any fish here weighs several pounds; isn’t an Iso Rod much more efficient?"
"Xiao Tian, are you really using a Hand Rod out here?" Shi Ye immediately brought up the topic as he caught Shi Tian's glance.
Shi Ye didn’t quite understand what Shi Tian was up to, but since he had brought out the Hand Rod, it was clear they were going to talk about it.
"I’ve never used this ten-meter Customized Rod before. I couldn’t use it in Sanya, so I figured I’d break it in at sea! With a ten-meter long Rod, you can feel even when a fish swims by; if I don’t try catching a big one, it feels like such a waste!"
After saying that, he glanced sideways at Head Brother sitting nearby. Why hadn’t he reacted yet?
In fact, the best feeling with a Customized Rod is with a Hand Rod. When a fish bites, you can sense it even before the Float moves; that feeling is far superior to that of an Iso Rod since the Iso Rod comes with a Wheel!
This time Head Brother's hand twitched slightly but was immediately pressed down by his other hand.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t interested in Shi Tian’s Hand Rod; it was just that in front of Shi Ye, he felt hesitant to show too much eagerness!
Seeing that Head Brother still hadn’t reacted, Shi Tian felt somewhat speechless. When did this guy become so composed? With everything said and done, how could he not be tempted?
"Ye Ge! Do you know anything about audio-visual equipment? I want to set up an audio-visual room in the basement of my villa so I can play guitar when I have free time. The only problem is I’m not familiar with audio-visual equipment and don’t know which ones are good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Shi Ye to respond, Head Brother perked up.
"Audio-visual? Come to me! I know about this! Let’s go to my room; I’ll show you on my computer!" The moment audio-visuals were mentioned, Head Brother sprang up and dragged Shi Tian toward his room while also making sure to take Shi Tian's Rod and Fishing Set along.
Once they were in the room, Head Brother placed the Rod and Fishing Set behind him and pulled out his phone.
"The world of audio-visuals is vast! I'll send some basic knowledge to your phone; take a look first so you can get familiar with it. Later on, I'll explain everything in detail; otherwise, you won’t understand anything!"
Head Brother didn’t know much about audio-visuals at all! He only knew how to pay for things. All of Li Ziyu's equipment was paid for by him; through paying for them over time, he had picked up just a little bit of knowledge—only just that little bit!
Watching Head Brother walk out with his Hand Rod made Shi Tian smile slightly as he grabbed his phone and returned to his own room. He figured he should learn a bit more about it after all.
I can't play with audio and video myself, and I only know how to press the white keys for chords. For now, I can't handle anything that professional. However, this afternoon in the audio-visual room on the Air Force, watching Li Ziyu skillfully manipulate various equipment, Shi Tian felt it was necessary to set up a system at home. It had to be better than what Li Ziyu had, and he even considered creating a small recording studio.
I might not be able to use it, but Yun Wan'er could! The main thing is that Li Ziyu could use it! If there was a small recording studio, wouldn't the first choice for recording background music be my own studio?
As he ran, he got used to it; wasn't Li Ziyu settling down there? This seemed reliable, and spending some money would be worth it. However, those pieces of equipment didn't seem cheap; he'd have to find a way to make some extra cash!
Half an hour later, Head Brother returned to the room. He glanced at Shi Tian, who had already disappeared, hid the Rod away, and rewrote the list based on what Li Ziyu had previously asked him to pay for. He took it and went to find Shi Tian.
"How's it going? I made you a list; take a look!" This was already a set of professional-grade equipment—enough for home use! Knocking on Shi Tian's door, Head Brother placed the list in front of him. He didn't want to chat about audio-visual equipment.
"Xiao Tian, that custom Hand Rod feels great! It's just a bit long; if only it were Mi Si or Mi San! What made you think of customizing a ten-meter one? What a pity!"
He had already tried the Rod and caught two fish in half an hour. Most of the time was wasted on reeling them in. If it weren't for the help from Air Force, he probably would still be struggling with the fish at Stern. Trying to haul a seven or eight-kilogram sea fish onto the boat with the Hand Rod was just too difficult.
The Hand Rod was better suited for freshwater fishing; even if it was dozens of pounds, it would still be enjoyable. But once he got to Hai Li, even a longer Hand Rod felt like a toy. Thankfully, he hadn't hooked any big fish like Niu Gang or Amberjack; otherwise, that Rod would have snapped without bringing any fish aboard!
