My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 160 The club begins preparations for the fishing tournament

If Zhou Miao had his own house, he wouldn't have needed to contact his parents to move the treasure he discovered.

As Chinese people, owning our own house is perhaps an instinct deeply rooted in our culture!

"Ah Miao, this batch of flounder weighs a total of 5,276 jin (2,583 catties). Check if the quantity is correct!"

Once the last catch of halibut had been tallied, Pang Yu handed him a notebook to look at.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaoxiao quickly handed over her notebook.

Zhou Miao checked the total and, seeing no problem, returned the notebook to them: "The quantity is correct. Shall we settle the payment immediately?"

He wasn't sure if Pang Yu could come up with the payment of over 200,000 yuan all at once.

Aside from a small number that were used in Japanese restaurants, most of the fish were taken by Pang Yu to sell himself.

Moreover, this time is different from the previous times. In the past, there were more mantis shrimp, and they made more money.

However, previous payments were made in installments, rather than all at once amounting to hundreds of thousands.

"How about I give you 100,000 first, and the final payment tomorrow or the day after?" Pang Yu suggested.

He earns a considerable amount every year by following Pang Hao, but his expenses are also high. He also has a loan to repay for a school district property. His daily working capital is only a few hundred thousand yuan, and he really can't come up with more than two hundred thousand yuan.

It's Zhou Miao who's in charge. If it were someone else, they would have held onto the payment for at least a month.

"Okay, no problem." Zhou Miao readily agreed to the offer of 100,000 yuan upfront, with the remaining balance to be settled in the next day or two.

After receiving the money, he transferred 5,000 yuan to Luo Hao, along with the cost of renting a trawler and diesel fuel.

The five thousand was Zhou Miao's way of thanking him for helping out today.

Without Luo Hao, he wouldn't have been able to catch so many flounders in one day.

Relying on my few fish traps or fishing lines, I don't know when I'd ever catch anything.

"Ah Miao, what are you doing?" Luo Hao accepted the boat rental and diesel fuel costs, but promptly returned the five thousand yuan.

"I can't accept this money. I was just helping out with a small favor. Accepting it would be a slap in my face. If you really care, you can treat me to a meal or take me out to relax."

He wasn't worried about not having enough meat to eat while following Zhou Miao, but he was afraid that their relationship wouldn't be close enough.

So he was willing to suffer a loss and help him for nothing in order to build a good relationship with him and make him remember his favor.

In that way, Zhou Miao will always remember him when good things happen to him in the future.

Luo Hao has eaten meat with him more than once; even the dumbest person would know what to do.

"Alright, let's go tonight then, let's get something good to eat." Zhou Miao didn't insist on paying back the money that had been returned.

This is why he was willing to help Luo Hao make money; this person really knows how to maintain boundaries and can control his greed very well.

If it were someone with a greedy heart, and they were given five thousand yuan, they would not only not return the money, but would also be unhappy and complain that it was too little.

As for Lu Xingyu, Zhou Miao was only considering their long-standing friendship and the five thousand yuan Lu Xingyu had lent him when Zhou Miao was at his lowest point.

This incident is enough for him to remember for a lifetime. As long as Lu Xingyu doesn't do anything to hurt him, Zhou Miao will definitely take him with him for the rest of his life and make sure he lives a life of luxury.

He didn't give money to Lu Xiaoxiao and Luo Qianqian. They were his women, and he would just buy them gifts when he had time.

Several people thoroughly cleaned the dirty floor of the Tingtao Fishing Raft to prevent it from emitting an unpleasant fishy smell after being exposed to the sun.

Luo Hao then steered the trawler back, while the other three went back to shower and then meet up to go to the city for dinner.

The original plan to accompany Luo Qianqian to the movies was put on hold because of today's fishing, which relieved Zhou Miao.

Get a good night's sleep tonight, and tomorrow will be another energetic day.

After returning home from dinner, Yu Muzhou, who had been keeping a low profile lately, suddenly sent him a message asking him to come to the club if he was free the next day, as he had something to discuss with him.

Zhou Miao found it strange. He didn't handle anything, so why was he being consulted?

However, since becoming a shareholder of the club, he hasn't visited the club even once. He can definitely make time to go there tomorrow.

The next day, Zhou Miao slept until the sun was high in the sky before finally heading out comfortably. He drove to the club, taking the compressed air cylinder with him and filling it up.

He had only just bought the pickup truck, but he was already experiencing its convenience in daily life.

Recalling Luo Qianqian's rhetoric, Zhou Miao really wanted to throw her into driving school, wait until she passed the test, and then buy her a car so she would understand how convenient it is to have a car.

Upon arriving at the club, Zhou Miao first filled the bottle with air, then leisurely strolled around the club before arriving at Yu Muzhou's office.

He was alone in the office, leisurely making tea.

"You've come at the perfect time. Try some of my tea."

Zhou Miao sat opposite him, picked up her teacup and took a sip. It had a light tea aroma, but the taste wasn't strong.

"This tea is good; it's not bitter at all, and it even has a slightly sweet aftertaste."

"When you brew tea at home, you probably use a lot of tea leaves and just steep it directly, right?" Yu Muzhou said with a smile.

"Hehe, you said it word for word." Zhou Miao smiled and put down his teacup. "I don't have the time to brew tea as leisurely as you do."

"Hehe, you said it word for word." Zhou Miao smiled and put down his teacup. "I don't have the time to brew tea as leisurely as you do."

Yu Muzhou had originally intended to give him some tea, but after hearing what he said, he gave up the idea.

However, no one looked down on him because of this, or thought he was not up to par.

At each stage of life, interests, hobbies, and tastes will change.

At Zhou Miao's age, Yu Muzhou himself wasn't someone who could patiently and leisurely brew tea; in fact, he didn't even like drinking tea back then.

"I asked you to come here today mainly to discuss something with you."

"What is it?" Zhou Miao sat up straight and looked at him curiously.

"I plan to organize a fishing competition to attract the attention of fishing enthusiasts and to enhance the reputation of the fishing club."

"Contest?"

Zhou Miao was taken aback. Looking at Yu Muzhou's solemn expression, she suddenly asked, "Are you participating?"

"Uh~"

Yu Muzhou immediately lost his composure and looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Ahem... As a shareholder of the fishing club and the vice president of the Nanzhen Fishing Association, it's only natural that I would participate."

really!

Zhou Miao rolled his eyes and leaned back in his chair. He said he was going to hold a fishing competition, but actually he just wanted to have some fun and find a group of like-minded fishing enthusiasts to play around with him!

However, it did indeed raise the club's profile, letting more anglers with nothing to do and a little money know about the club.

"I think it's a good idea; it's good for the competition to be lively."

After thinking it over, Zhou Miao realized there was no problem and naturally wouldn't object.

"How about you become my captain, Ah Miao?"

"???"

Zhou Miao was dumbfounded. He thought that Yu Muzhou had called him over not only to discuss the fishing competition, but also to invite him to participate.

Why did they make him the captain?

"Here's the thing, our fishing competition this time is in team format, and we need to form a team of three."

"Among them are captains, who are responsible for steering the boat and finding fishing spots. There are assistants, who are responsible for assisting the anglers."

"After thinking about it, I think you'd be more suitable to be the captain. As for the assistant, I'd like to find someone who can fish, do odd jobs, and can relay the catch when it's big. I think your friend Luo Hao would be a good fit."
