I Swear I Don't Have A Python In My Pool Chapter 25

Chapter 25

The Greedy Old Reservoir Guard!

Hearing this, the other employees looked at each other and fell silent.

Finally, a middle-aged man broke the silence and shrugged.

“What else can we do? Clean it up and report it truthfully when we get back.

“We can get off work after cleaning up. We can play cards and go back to accompany our families.

“It’s not like they’ll pay us less, and it’ll be so easy.

“Besides, although this place is a little strange, the work is easy and the salary is high!

“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask and don’t care about what you shouldn’t care about. Keep your curiosity in check.”

With that, the middle-aged man went to get a water gun and began to clean the small farm.

Seeing this, the other women and middle-aged men thought for a moment and began to work.

He was right! Although this place was very strange, the salary was high! And the work was easy!

Their everyday tasks took barely any effort at all. It was much easier than the large farm next door.

Every two to three days, they would get the day off. Every time the pigs here disappeared, there would always be a two-day holiday.

However, their doubts and curiosity grew.

At the same time, w.a.n.g Mang circled the forest beside the reservoir again.

In reality, w.a.n.g Mang also felt a bit of a headache. It was a tad difficult for him to enter the water now.

This was because more and more people were fis.h.i.+ng from the reservoir these few days.

To be honest, w.a.n.g Mang was even considering asking his father to stop the fis.h.i.+ng activities.

However, after thinking about it, w.a.n.g Mang decided against it.

If fis.h.i.+ng was prohibited, it would make people feel that there was something strange about the reservoir.

Add that to the fact that news about the huge shadow that had appeared in the reservoir a few days ago had probably spread far and wide.

Everyone must know that there was a water monster in their reservoir by now.

Therefore, there was no stopping these curious fishermen.

His hypothesis was right.

Just then, in a villa beside the mountain road at the foot of the reservoir…

Elder Yang, who was in charge of guarding the reservoir, sat expressionlessly in the courtyard.

There were seventeen or eighteen angry fishermen standing in front of him.

There were people of all ages among them, and there were some women too.

There was even a female streamer.

At this moment, all of them had furious expressions on their faces.

The old man in charge of the reservoir was too infuriating!

After he learned that there were water monsters in the reservoir, the old man informed w.a.n.g Mang’s father of the news.

With the help of w.a.n.g Mang’s father, Elder Yang immediately started to raise the price of entry.

Originally, fis.h.i.+ng here would cost 500 yuan a day.

Things were different now.

Now, it cost one thousand yuan a day!

Moreover, each person was only allowed one fis.h.i.+ng rod!

All of them had to leave before 6 pm too!

“That’s too much, old man! The last time I came here, I was only charged 500 yuan a day. Now, you’re charging 1,000 yuan a day, and each of us only gets a single fis.h.i.+ng rod.”

Lil Su’s pretty face was filled with anger.

She was the streamer who had been scared sh*tless by w.a.n.g Mang not too long ago.

However, ever since the video spread, she had received a lot of attention and her viewers.h.i.+p had increased by a lot.

That was why she came to this reservoir to fish again. In addition, the news of the sudden appearance of the water monster in the reservoir had spread.

The popularity of Huanshan Reservoir had caused a lot of heated discussions and spread online.

Elder Yang, who had a tobacco pipe in his mouth, glanced sideways at the beautiful streamer and said lazily,

“Sorry, but pay up or get going.

By the way, those who don’t fish are not allowed to go to the reservoir. My son and grandson will chase them away regularly.

“Oh, if you’re just chilling in the area and not fis.h.i.+ng, you have to pay 300 yuan a day.”

Upon hearing Elder Yang’s words, the faces of the fis.h.i.+ng crowd turned red with fury.

A few of the youngsters could not help but grit their teeth and curse.

“Old man, you’re so shady! It’s one thing for you to raise the price, but you’re charging us money just to sit there!”

“You’re shamelessly greedy! F*ck you, do you have to be so sc.u.mmy?!”

Elder Yang curled his lips and sneered. “I didn’t ask you to fish here. If you don’t want to fish, get lost.

“In any case, there are many others here. You guys are nothing to me!”

After saying that, Elder Yang lay on the old chair and ignored the furious crowd.

Seeing this, everyone was incomparably angry, but there was nothing they could do. They could only hand over the money sullenly.

Then, they all received the fis.h.i.+ng vouchers given to them by Old Master Yang’s sons.

After leaving this place, the beautiful Lil Su said angrily, “Everyone, did you see that? This old man is terrible. He’s so arrogant!

“As soon as they saw that their reservoir was popular, they immediately raised the prices.

“If I didn’t want to come and see if there was a chance to catch sight of the water monster, I wouldn’t have suffered this humiliation!”

At this point, the beautiful streamer, Lil Su, gritted her teeth in anger.

The last time she came to the reservoir, she peed her pants because of w.a.n.g Mang. However, she gained a lot of popularity and fans.

She was a little annoyed at the time, but her mood improved soon enough. However, she was really angered by this old man now.

When they arrived at the reservoir, though, they realized that there were tons of people fis.h.i.+ng in this reservoir!

There were already more than 300 people fis.h.i.+ng in this reservoir today!

No wonder the old man in charge of guarding the reservoir was so arrogant.

Obviously, they were not the first to be charged a higher price.

When they saw so many people, the anger in their hearts dissipated a lot.

Just then, the beautiful streamer, Lil Su raised her phone and took a photo.

“Look, my lovelies! There are so many people coming to the reservoir to fish today!”

“If they received 1,000 yuan per person, not including those who just came to watch, then the reservoir’s income today alone would have already reached 300,000 yuan.”

Lil Su was extremely surprised.

When she came here two months ago, there were not many people.

In fact, only a handful of people came here to fish.

Now, though, there were more than 300 people scattered around the reservoir. There were too many people fis.h.i.+ng.

Moreover, some of them even ordered takeout!

Were there delivery services here in this rural mountain?

Out of curiosity, she walked to a fisherman who was eating and asked, “Hi, did you bring your own food for this fis.h.i.+ng trip? Or…?”

The fisherman looked up.

When he saw the beautiful Lil Su holding her phone in her hand, he immediately knew that she was a streamer.

Seeing this, the man could not help but shake his head and complain, “I didn’t bring any food! If you want to eat, you can call the old man.”

“I’m talking about the old man in charge of guarding the reservoir. They’re also in charge of delivering food.

“You can get two vegetable dishes and a bottle of water for 50 yuan.

“If you want two vegetable dishes, two types of meat, and one bottle of water, it’s 100 yuan.

“If you want to buy water alone, do you see that young man over there? Ask him for a bottle of water for 15 yuan. He’s the youngest son of the old man guarding the reservoir.

“Oh, he has instant noodles everywhere, but it’s a little expensive. A bowl of instant noodles costs 25 yuan.”
