Fishing Livestream

Watching the red hearts rapidly increase, Yue Feng gathered his spirit, "We're almost at a thousand, guys, put some effort into it! If we hit two thousand red hearts, I'll add another prize, which will be a set of fifteen hand-tied leaders I made myself!"

At first, everyone was quite interested when they heard about the additional prize, but the moment they learned it was hand-tied leaders, their interest plummeted.

Ordinary anglers usually deal with medium and small-sized fishing stores, where offering leader tying is indeed a service.

But those that can do the leader tying job well and with precision are quite rare. Most fishing gear industry workers tend to go for efficiency, resulting in just passable quality leaders that lack finesse.

The very next second, Yue Feng casually opened his own box of leaders!

Boy, all of the leaders were neatly arranged, whether it was the spacing between hooks or the length of the leaders, everything was in an impeccable standard; these leaders were not just for fishing, they could be considered works of art!

"Wow..."

"Holy crap!"

"Hiss..."

All sorts of exclamations flooded the screen again.

"Are you a professional competitive angler? Those leaders blew me away! Did you tie them yourself?"

"Do you take orders, host? I really want to buy a box of these leaders, even if I don't use them, they'd be great just to look at!"

Yue Feng wanted to agree, but then he thought better of it and gave up on the idea.

Although there were only about fifty to sixty viewers in the live stream, Yue Feng's fan count had already risen to 112. Yue Feng was very fast at tying hooks, but there were simply too many people; if he opened up this opportunity, he could make money, but then he wouldn't have any free time at all.

"I'm not a professional competitive angler, to be precise, I'm the owner of a small fishing gear store in town. As for the hooks, yes, I tied them myself, but tying hooks is a meticulous task, and my brothers might have a high demand, so I will not be accepting orders for the time being.

"A whole box of custom leaders, I will offer them to everyone in a lottery later, so brothers interested in this can follow the live stream for updates!"

"I knew it, the host isn't just any angler, you're the owner of a fishing gear store, you tie hooks authentically! I've already clicked the red heart, wish me luck!"

"I want it too, I want it too, nobody else grab it, I'm clicking, I'm clicking, and I click some more!"

Some people started a red heart clicking spree, which soon influenced others; a group of people focused and clicked away, sending the total number of red hearts to 5,000 and still crazily increasing.

"Alright, alright, that's enough! Let's start the lottery! One portion of secret recipe bait, fifteen pairs of hand-tied hooks on a platform, regular parameters of your choice, good luck everyone!"

Upon clicking the draw button, names of all the anglers that met the conditions in the live room started leaping crazily.

In the end, one name appeared behind the winner.

Heartless Wanderer!

Yue Feng glanced at the lottery result and said, "Congratulations to the brother Heartless Wanderer for winning the second round of prizes! The usual rules apply, send me your phone number and address through private message backstage!"

Ding! Heartless Wanderer sent a gift of 24 Beer Graffiti!

Heartless Wanderer: "Lucky me, ran out of virtual coins on my account, don't mind that it's a bit less!"

"Hehe, thanks for the Beer graffiti support from the heartless wanderer! Here, Yue Feng would like to add one more thing, the lucky draw is purely for fun and to liven things up for the bros, there's no rule that says you have to give gifts if you win a prize—no need now, nor will there be in the future!"

With that said, everyone's fondness for Yue Feng suddenly increased quite a bit. Out there in the world of live streaming, all kinds of hosts bait for gifts and use all sorts of tricks. A host like Yue Feng, who declares he doesn't operate under such rules, is truly a breath of fresh air in the live streaming community!

After a shout-out, Yue Feng continued to cast his line. Curiously enough, he hadn't caught many fish, but the mood in the live stream room was extremely high-spirited. No wonder so many live streaming rooms are giving stuff away—the enthusiasm of the freeloading crowd is just too scary.

Because of this brief delay, the fishing spot Yue Feng had settled on was now teeming with fish. As he cast his line into the water, he fished more and more quickly, soon starting to catch them in succession.

"To catch them one after another in the middle of the day, 6666!"

"I remember now, this is the west bank of Wangjiazhuang. A few days ago another Angler was live streaming here and caught sight of the host—no wonder it feels so familiar!"

"I have an impression too, I think the live stream's title was 'Challenging the Hardest Time to Catch Fish in the Wild During the Afternoon Gap.' Back then, that Angler Old Liu started and ended his cast with just one fish, spending the whole time watching the host reel them in one after another. Later, he didn't stream for long before he ended the broadcast feeling down in the dumps!"

"Wow, impressive! Not only does he look good, but he also fishes well. Love it, love it!"

"Upstairs, have you no shame? Whip it out, and you might even be bigger than the host. Love my foot—calm down!"

"Ying ying ying, I don't care, little brother, I want to have your monkey babies…"

Facing this kind of teasing, real or fake, Yue Feng ignored it all and focused on fishing. Anyway, the channel steward would veto any problematic comments—anything that came through was definitely fine.

The fish were biting incredibly well today, and they were big too. In just a short while, he had already landed more than a dozen fish, which were still crazily taking the bait. Yue Feng's adrenal glands were pumping out adrenaline, making him ecstatic.

Without realizing it, two hours had passed, and a system notification chimed in Yue Feng's mind.

Ding! There are 10 minutes left before the livestream ends. Please make sure to handle any unfinished business before going off-air to avoid any oversights.

Once the system notification chimed, Yue Feng was dumbfounded. Damn, just for doing a livestream there's actually a time limit.

"System, system, there's actually a time limit for the livestream?"

[Because the host's authority is too low and has not unlocked higher-level functions, you can only stream for two hours a day. If you want to get more streaming time, please work hard to complete various live streaming tasks. Additionally, the host's secondary job has been bound, and there's also a chance to get time extension rewards through a lottery draw!]

"Alright!" Yue Feng sighed helplessly.

"Sorry, guys, the drone has indicated the battery is low, so today's fishing livestream has to end here. If everything goes well, I should be streaming every day at noon in the near future. Those who won the prizes, please send me a private message with your address and phone number so I can send out the small gifts through express delivery as soon as possible!"

"Wow, time flies, it's already been two hours? I'm not even done watching the bobber dunk!"

"Damn, it's almost two o'clock, I'm done for, gonna be late for work!"

"Little brother, I've already sent you my WeChat ID in a direct message, remember to add me, love you lots!"

...

Looking at the messages from the audience in the livestream, Yue Feng felt quite accomplished.

The final minute ended, and the livestream automatically cut off.
