111: Eggs not flipped

That night was strange; there was not the slightest sound.

Was it because he left Ba Wan Province? Did the change in environment mean he couldn't receive the signal anymore?

Gao Xiaofan thought about this while brushing his teeth.

Qiu Gu wasn't around. He was probably out buying breakfast or maybe corn~

Gao Xiaofan glanced at the time; it was barely nine o'clock. Without the strange noises, his sleep was much better.

After washing up, Gao Xiaofan sent a message to Qiu Gu and then headed out of the hotel.

He arrived too late last night to check out the surroundings, so he figured he might as well take a stroll this morning~

Gao Xiaofan strolled down the street, a cigarette dangling from his lips. This was his first time leaving Province, and everything seemed new. Suddenly, he noticed several people lining up at a small stall and curiously walked over.

The stall owner first poured a layer of batter into a mold. After about three minutes, he took out the formed pancake, poured in the liquid from a beaten egg, and covered it with the lid.

Hmm~ egg turnover~

"Boss, what is this~"

Gao Xiaofan asked curiously.

"It's egg turnover~ two yuan each."

The boss replied while busy working.

Huh?

egg turnover?

What kind of thing is this~

Two yuan each? That's way too cheap.

Gao Xiaofan said while scanning the QR code.

"Give me four~"

It looked really good, but he wondered how it tasted.

Ten minutes later, Gao Xiaofan nodded in satisfaction.

Delicious! His mouth was full of egg aroma. The texture was similar to an egg tart; the inside was soft and fragrant, while the outer layer was incredibly crispy~

After eating two, Gao Xiaofan carried the remaining two and walked toward the hotel parking lot. Qiu Gu had just messaged him saying he had bought the corn and put it in the car.

"Here, a specialty from Yuchuan. Have a taste~"

"Okay, thank you, Xiaofan. These are the Steamed Buns I got for you~"

Qiu Gu happily accepted the two egg turnovers, then pulled two Steamed Buns out of his pocket.

Gao Xiaofan smiled: "No need. You keep them for lunch. Try to save them; you might have to eat them tonight too~"

"Ah~ I don't like eating Steamed Buns~"

"I damn well like eating them! Stop buying me Steamed Buns~"

Qiu Gu looked wronged, but seeing the egg turnovers in his hand, he cheered up again.

"You'll be driving later, okay~"

Gao Xiaofan watched Qiu Gu eat with relish, then turned to look at the bags of corn in the car.

He peeled back the corn husks and checked them. Not bad, it was Sweet Corn.

If he had bought Waxy Corn instead, that would have been useless~

Gao Xiaofan, breathing a sigh of relief, saw the two Steamed Buns on the center console and twitched his mouth.

He might have ended up buying several bags of Steamed Buns instead~

Qiu Gu finished eating in a few bites and smiled at Gao Xiaofan.

"I'm going back to the hotel quickly~"

He then turned and ran upstairs to the hotel.

Gao Xiaofan ignored him, climbed into the passenger seat, and started searching on his phone for fishing conditions at Xiaolangdi.

Looking at the description on his phone, he stroked his chin. It turned out this Xiaolangdi was located downstream of the Yellow River, and was also called Yellow River Xiaolangdi.

Crucian Carp, Carp, Grass Carp, Silver Carp and Bighead Carp, as well as Pomfret and Silverfish.

That's a pretty complete list~

Gao Xiaofan was still reading when Qiu Gu happily opened the car door and got in, then tossed a disposable toothbrush onto the armrest.

Gao Xiaofan ???

"Hehe, didn't I hear you talking about night fishing? So I asked the hotel for some disposable toothbrushes and toothpaste. Saves us from buying them."

Gao Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and gave him a thumbs up.

"As expected of Brother Gu! Please teach me more of these life hacks~"

A man in his thirties being this frugal—it wasn't his fault.

Qiu Gu smiled, stroking his chin, started the car, and followed the navigation, stepping on the gas.

"Xiaofan, once we arrive, don't rush to start streaming. I'll help you set up everything you need first, and then we can start."

Qiu Gu said while driving.

Gao Xiaofan smiled: "What's wrong? Are you afraid of being on camera~"

"Not at all. I just didn't want you to rush. I still need to help you set up the camera positions later~"

"It's fine, we'll take our time. I'll hold the Gimbal later, promise not to do any work, and you can take your time setting up."

The two exchanged a smile~

What happens when two genuinely kind-hearted people get together?

Following the navigation, the van slowly drove in. Gao Xiaofan, inside the car, was stunned by the beautiful mountains and clear waters.

It's too beautiful~

After Gao Xiaofan got out of the car, looking at the beautiful scenery before him, he felt completely purified.

Fishing here, even if he caught nothing, wouldn't be so bad~

Ptooey~

Gao Xiaofan quickly pulled out his phone and started streaming immediately.

"Hello everyone, I'm Brother Wo Zi~ The Streamer is always here. Brothers who like it can hit the follow button~"

Familiar greeting, familiar formula~

"This time, we've come to the Xiaolangdi Reservoir in Yuchuan, Henan Province! Everyone, take a look at the scenery! It's truly beautiful. I could fish here for a month without moving my spot~"

Gao Xiaofan swung the Gimbal around for a circle, then pointed the camera at the busy Qiu Gu.

"Brother Gu is moving things down now. Thanks, Brother Gu! If it weren't for Brother Gu, I'd probably still be halfway here~"

Hearing this, Qiu Gu smiled and waved at the camera.

Gao Xiaofan smiled, holding the Gimbal, and started strolling along the water's edge.

"The previous spot was good for camping and was open, but we need to find a place suitable for casting our rods. For a large body of water like this, the exact location doesn't matter much."

"However, we can look for traces of previous fishing spots. That means people fish here often, and if baiting spots are regularly established, it will be very effective for luring fish~"

After searching around, he found no traces left by previous Anglers~ He only understood why when he looked at the phone's bullet screen comments.

"Hahaha, Brother Wo Zi, stop looking! This reservoir has dedicated cleaners, so don't expect to see any bait bags~"

Gao Xiaofan smiled.

"In that case, we'll go back to where the car was parked initially. I never thought environmental protection would affect my choice of fishing spots~"

The bullet screen was filled with laughter.

When Gao Xiaofan strolled back, he found that most of the gear had been carried down, and Qiu Gu was holding the Fishing Platform, looking puzzled.

Gao Xiaofan jogged over and explained how to install it, which Qiu Gu finally understood.

He carried the Fishing Platform toward the water, installed it, and even jumped on it to test it out. Only then did he nod in satisfaction, jump back to the shore, and carry over the Fishing Box and other items.

Viewers watching this scene on the bullet screen all expressed their admiration.

"Big Brother Gu is too good~ I strongly suggest Brother Wo Zi raise his salary, okay."

"Exactly~ Raise his salary, raise his salary~"

"If I didn't know Brother Wo Zi's disposition, I'd suspect Brother Wo Zi and Brother Gu were hooking up~"

Gao Xiaofan chuckled, chatting and joking with the audience, until half an hour later, Qiu Gu handed him a basin of corn.

Gao Xiaofan picked up the basin and the baiting spoon, lightly jumped, and landed steadily on the Fishing Platform.

"Whoosh~" A spoonful of corn was scattered across the water, making a splashing sound.
