Chapter 9: Chapter 09 Random Task [A Qualified Fisherman]



```

"Don't busy yourself, I'm just picking up some stuff and heading out! Got more things to do, I'll come hang out when I'm free some other day!" Liu Fengnian waved his hands repeatedly, handed Yue Feng a hundred-yuan note, took the change, and then left the store.

After seeing Liu Fengnian off at the door, Yue Feng locked the door with a bolt and headed straight for the advertising print shop a street away.

Yue Feng hadn't thought of sticky labels before, no wonder he felt like something was missing after packaging the bait! A word to wake the dreamer!

The label didn't require much precision, Yue Feng simply told the typesetter the specifications, making clear the bait type, store address, and contact information, and a rather orderly sticky label design was settled.

He ordered a thousand labels in one go, only costing a few cents each.

Yue Feng wouldn't get the labels until the next day, so he leisurely returned to the store, picked up the fish he had brought back in the afternoon, and made a beeline for the night market.

Over twenty pounds of fish sold out in less than fifteen minutes. A few were sold piecemeal, and the remaining more than ten pounds were scooped up by an auntie whose family had just had a baby.After selling the fish, Yue Feng grabbed some food from the night market for a quick meal before heading back to his store.

Having seen some return on investment these past two days, Yue Feng felt it was necessary to keep some accounts.

Today's earnings were good, four hundred and some in the morning, Liu Fengnian spent another 90 in the evening, and 245 from selling fish, totaling an income of 775 for the day. Adding the Passive Skill 10%+8 yuan/day income, the total revenue was 860.

After subtracting 26 yuan for meals, 74 yuan for Licorice Powder and strawberry powder, and 35 for a thousand sticky labels, he had a net profit of 725 yuan.

Yue Feng had just finished calculating the day's financial records when the system notification sounded.

Ding! Congratulations on completing the basic financial record keeping! Business clarity +10. Good accounting habits can give you a more intuitive understanding of your shop's management. Congratulations, you've taken another step towards becoming a successful store owner!

Ding! Congratulations on earning a system reward of 500 Points!

Seeing that the system had rewarded another 500 Points, Yue Feng couldn't contain his excitement.

He had 260 Points left over from yesterday's three draws, two 500 Points rewards from the system today, plus 400 Points for the promotion rewards from eight Fishermen, making a Total Points of 1660, enough for another lucky draw.

The system's Points draw feature was quite reliable, generally giving out items of some value, and Yue Feng wondered what he would get this time.

Lucky draw!

The big wheel began to spin again, and soon the golden pointer stopped on a reward!

Ding! Congratulations on winning a Fishing rod [Qing Hong·12-foot]!

[Qing Hong·12-foot]: A Taiwan fishing crucian carp rod made from high-tech materials. It truly achieves the sense of touch with small fish and the strength to handle big fish, making it a sharp tool for smaller species of freshwater fish in Taiwan Fishing.

Additional Effect: Line Protection +25%

After checking out the rod's Attribute given by the system, Yue Feng eagerly opened the cotton rod bag meant for storing the rod.

This was a thin telescopic rod that wasn't much thicker than a cigarette. The rod had a full paint design, with a very minimalist style, the entire rod was ivory white, and a few simple strokes towards the middle section depicted several gently descending feathers, giving the whole thing an incredibly exquisite look. This wasn't just a fishing rod, it was a work of art!

In hand, it felt almost weightless, with a great grip, easily held up with just two fingers.

Gently shaking the rod, the tip was soft, but from the second section, it was extremely strong and resilient.

To be honest, Yue Feng had been thinking of replacing the old short-sectioned fiberglass rod he had been using for the past two days, but the pressure of earning enough to cover the ten thousand yuan rent in a short time had made him reluctant to reinvest in decent fishing gear.

Some might ask, don't you have it in the store?

```

Indeed, there are items like fishing rods and fishing boxes that are priced higher, and the shop carries very few in stock, some with only one or two in inventory.

Using it would lead to a stockout issue, and the decision would be whether to restock or to allow the stock to remain depleted for a certain category.

Restocking would require spending money, and what Yue Feng was short on was money.

Allowing a stockout could affect profits if customers came looking to buy, placing him in a difficult dilemma.

But now, the system had resolved the issue of a large item like a rod through the lottery, which made Yue Feng start thinking about getting some basic equipment set up.

Talking about simple field fishing gear, plus a fishing box or chair, a fish guard to hold the catch, and a basic rod holder, he could pretty much get by.

Thinking about fishing during the day and the disdainful looks from anglers nearby, Yue Feng felt a burst of heat in his head and grabbed the small fishing box from the top of the shelf.

A 26L small fishing box is convenient to carry and can be easily tied to a motorcycle with a rope. Most importantly, there are three of these in the shop's inventory, so even using one for himself wouldn't result in a stockout.

Having made up his mind, Yue Feng immediately got to work.

He quickly took out a plain white model and assembled the fishing box accessories in no time.

Just as Yue Feng was jotting down the cost of the small fishing box in his ledger, the system prompt chimed in again!

Ding! Random task [A Qualified Fisherman] triggered!

[A Qualified Fisherman]: As a qualified fisherman, how can you tolerate lacking the basic fishing equipment? Complete your equipment essentials, and the system will issue rewards based on completion level.

Special Tip! The current equipment focus is on beginner Taiwan fishing!

Do you accept the task?

Seeing this task, Yue Feng hesitated a bit. The store's inventory wasn't extensive, with most of the stock tied up in various bait products, and the basic equipment was limited due to a restricted total investment.

Now that the system had issued a task, the question was whether to do it or not?

The task wasn't very difficult to complete; being around the river often, though he hadn't eaten pork, he had seen pigs run – he was clear on what equipment everyone used, and his little shop was fairly well equipped.

But to use up the store's already limited stock for the task was something Yue Feng was reluctant to do.

In the end, it was still a matter of money.

Seeing the task prompt starting the final ten-second countdown, Yue Feng steeled himself and accepted the task with a clenched jaw.

No guts, no glory – the rewards for completing the task might be more generous!

Task accepted successfully! Please complete the equipment you believe is necessary within 10 minutes! Rewards will be settled automatically when the time is up!

Yue Feng, having made up his mind, did not hesitate and took out all the equipment he felt was necessary.

Rod holders, nets, fish guards, rod bags, float boxes, leader boxes, main line boxes, bait opening bowl sets, fishing umbrellas, needle stoppers – a full set of standard fishing equipment was arranged in one go.

Adding all this equipment together wasn't cheap; by market prices, it was at least several hundred yuan.

The ten minutes passed quickly.

Ding! Congratulations on completing the random task [A Qualified Fisherman]! Current completion rate is 90%.
