450: Chapter 439: The Intensity of Governnt Projects 450: Chapter 439: The Intensity of Governnt Projects But this ti, Old Zhou actually believed it, “You’re right, your dicinal wine is really impressive!
I used it twice during the race after you gave that bottle last ti, and the effects were quite noticeable!
And then my buddies snatched half of it, now there’s not much left.
When will the next shipnt be?
Could you arrange another bottle for ?”
Yue Feng grinned, “No problem!
I’ll set it up for you once we return to the hotel, not just the dicinal wine, but also a new dicine from our company!
I’ll give you a whole set to try out!”
“Then, brother, I thank you in advance!”
“Don’t ntion it!”
…
They stayed in the teahouse until four in the afternoon before Old Zhou received a WeChat ssage—it was ti to pick up the fish!
The three of them left the teahouse and headed straight for the reservoir.
The reservoir was nad Gu Jia Ridge Reservoir, located in a town on the outskirts of Hua Jin City.
It was about a twenty-minute drive from the city center.
The governnt-led project was handled very efficiently by the Zhe rchants.
The roads all the way were tarred, and even the main roads in the town near the reservoir were paved.
As Yue Feng looked out the window, he asked, “The governnt leaders are quite invested in this project, aren’t they?
If I’m not mistaken, these roads are newly built, right?”
Zhou Ziqing didn’t say anything, but Xiao Chuan took over the conversation, “Indeed, they were just built.
In less than two months, they got approval, organized, and built the roads—every step of the way!”
He continued, “Around here, this project is well known.
The leaders are trying to leverage the developnt of network technology for new industrialized advancents.
If it goes well, it’ll all count as their political achievents!”
In the middle of the conversation, they saw four large aquaculture transport trucks slowly approaching, honking their horns.
Seeing the aquaculture trucks gave Yue Feng a deeper understanding of the governnt’s capabilities.
Yue Feng had seen many fish-hauling trucks before—small ones with two skins capable of carrying about three to two thousand pounds each.
Larger ones he saw at Hua School, big trucks with four water tanks, capable of hauling two to three tonnes at a ti.
But these aquaculture trucks he was seeing now were sothing Yue Feng had never encountered before; at a glance, each truck had two compartnts and was a semi-trailer, rows of wheels underneath!
Yue Feng had no knowledge of heavy-duty cargo trucks, wasn’t familiar with models or load capacities, but this style alone said a lot.
Four trucks, each truck pulling an extra compartnt—it was anybody’s guess how many fish were filled in those water bags at once!
“Damn, that’s a huge truck!
I wonder how many fish it can release at once!” Yue Feng couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.
Xiao Chuan answered, “I think it’s about forty tons, directly hauled over from the aquaculture farm at Pengze Lake!
Definitely a lot of fish; just not sure if the sizes are accurate and whether the quality of the fish is up to par!”
“We’ll have a clear idea soon!
The trucks are stabilized and they’ve started to release water, let’s go up front and take a look!”
The three nonchalantly walked over to where the trucks were parked to release the fish, waiting to watch the process.
Old Zhou took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and casually offered one to the truck driver, “Old Liu, when will the fish be released?”
“The leader is coming over soon.
Once he signs, we’ll start releasing the fish.
Tell your friend to be smart and not to talk randomly!”
Zhou Ziqing nodded with a smile, “Sure, don’t worry; I won’t cause you trouble!”
About ten minutes later, a Passat with a small license plate pulled up to the reservoir managent area, and a middle-aged man wearing gold-rid glasses and a white shirt got out from the back seat.
The captain of the convoy, Old Liu, grabbed the paperwork from the truck and went up to et the man.
Whatever he said, the leader quickly signed off, and they promptly started releasing the fish.
The managent had considered the issue of fish stocking while refurbishing the reservoir area and had constructed a flat section specifically for this purpose.
When the truck approached the water, a large slide was lowered from the top of the cargo compartnt and attached to the fish release point.
The rubber outlet was opened, and the fish and water charged down the slide like dumplings being dropped into a pot, then fell into the water.
The scene of four trucks simultaneously releasing fish was quite stunning; the sacks were filled exclusively with Big Qing fish weighing at least ten to twenty pounds each.
They wriggled and swayed down the slides, ultimately hitting the water with a significant visual impact.
This wasn’t just three or five fish; it was forty tons, all Big Qing fish.
During the stocking process, Zhou Ziqing and Yue Feng were hardly noticeable, observing as much as they could about the fishes’ scales, activity levels, and sizes.
Watching the fish, these were the main aspects to consider.
Following his observations, Yue Feng judged that there likely weren’t any significant issues with this batch of fish.
Their scales were complete, their activity levels were sufficient, and they ca up to the surface shortly after entering the water to refresh their gills.
However, the bigger fish posed a slight problem.
By the end of the release, when the water flow subsided, the larger fish hadn’t charged out.
The driver, wearing long boots, jumped directly into the water and pushed them out.
Yue Feng spotted the largest Big Qing fish, which he estimated must weigh at least forty to fifty pounds; it almost got stuck in a rubber hose.
Its head was as big as a mortar, and its mouth could fit half a fist.
Other fish entered the water with a “plop,” but this giant caused a “boom” as it entered, splashing water everywhere.
The four trucks, each equipped with two large water tanks, continued the fish stocking for a good half hour.
Yue Feng hadn’t brought a drone, but he had brought a smartphone cara attachnt.
During the stocking, he took nurous shots of the big fish.
Once the stocking was complete, Yue Feng had also finished gathering footage.
When he returned, he would edit and upload it to create a fresh and engaging video clip.
“The fish are all stocked.
Let’s go!
Tonight, the hosting sponsor Jia Diaoni’s Mr.
Xie has a private dinner.
Shall we join for so fun?”
“A private dinner?
Should we go dressed like this?”
Yue Feng was slightly baffled by the ntion, feeling inappropriate to attend a dinner in his current attire.
If he had known, he would have brought a formal suit.
Zhou Ziqing shook his head, “What’s the big deal?
Jia Diaoni is a legitimate fishing gear company.
We are all fishern; fishing gear is our formal wear!
“During the Guangwei Fishing King Cup banquets in the past, everyone dressed this way.
Who really dresses up in a suit and tie to look dignified?”
“Alright then,” Yue Feng nodded and followed Zhou into the car.
On the road, Yue Feng learned from Zhou that this online fishing contest was sponsored by Jia Diaoni.
Jia Diaoni was fairly well-known within the fishing gear community.
Although it still lagged behind top-tier manufacturers, it had seen considerable growth in recent years.
The headquarters of Jia Diaoni was in Hua Jin city, reflecting its well-placed relations with the governnt.
It was capable of offering million-level prize money for the contest, showing significant boldness!
After several twists and turns, twenty minutes later, they arrived at the city’s Jun Yue Grand Hotel.
While parking, Zhou greeted several people, but Yue Feng didn’t recognize any of them; who knew what they did.
“There are quite a few people tonight; I guess those who arrived early will all co!
These influencer gatherings are quite interesting; it’s good to make more friends and expand one’s network on the platform!”
Yue Feng asked, “Those who greeted you just now, are they also streaming hosts from the platform?”
