Chapter 691 Taking over?
Seeing this, Jiang Mozi, who was standing by, gave him a look of contempt, curled his lips and said, "So you're a rookie too!"
However, this small setback did not discourage them, but instead aroused greater fighting spirit in the two of them.
Next, they tried to catch fish again and again, constantly adjusting their strategies and techniques. After some effort, they finally succeeded in catching a few lively fish.
When they placed these hard-earned results in front of the small stones by the stream, their hearts were filled with a sense of accomplishment, as if they had finally avenged their previous defeat!
However, Little Stone seemed not to care about their victory at all. He just sat there quietly without even raising his eyelids.
After all, for this fishing master, this kind of petty trick is not worth paying attention to.
Jiang Mozi, on the other hand, was so excited that she danced like a child.
Especially when she caught a fish with her own hands, she was so excited that she couldn't control herself.
"Ahhh! Gu Chang, look, I actually caught it too!" She shouted loudly while holding the fish high in her hand.
Gu Chang held the worn-out bucket tightly and ran over with big strides. He stopped panting and took a closer look. He saw a real fish lying in the fishing net, which was about the length of a human finger!
When the little stone nearby heard the noise, he curiously leaned over to take a look.
However, when he saw the little fish clearly, a speechless expression instantly appeared on his face, and then he turned and left without looking back.
As he walked, he muttered, "Hey! I thought it was so big! After all the effort, it turns out to be so small."
He muttered to himself, "These adults really look like they have never seen the world. They are making such a fuss over such a small fish!"
After saying that, he ran off to play somewhere else.
After being ruthlessly despised by that inconspicuous little stone, Jiang Mozi was not discouraged at all. Instead, he seemed to be inspired and continued to follow Gu Chang to catch fish in the clear river with great interest.
Time passed minute by minute, the two of them worked hard for a long time with full concentration, using their hands and feet. Their hard work paid off, and they finally succeeded in catching half a bucket of lively fish.
Looking at the big and small catches in the bucket, Jiang Mozi's face, which was already full of vitality, now bloomed with an extremely bright smile. She danced with excitement: "Wow! That's great! Catching fish is much more interesting than fishing!"
Hearing Jiang Mozi's excited shout, Gu Chang beside him couldn't help but smile slightly. He looked at Jiang Mozi softly and said slowly: "Yes, this is how the children here grow up."
"I still remember when I was a kid, every time I caught a bucket full of fish like today, I would take them home, process them a little, and then fry them directly in a frying pan. I would then coat them with a thin layer of flour, and when they were fried until they were golden and crispy, I would take them out and finally put them in a fragrant pancake. The taste was simply amazing!"
Jiang Mozi's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief, "Ah? Can such a small fish be eaten?"
Seeing her surprised look, Gu Chang couldn't help but laugh out loud and replied, "Of course you can! Even though these fish are small, they taste very delicious!"
Jiang Mozi listened to Gu Chang's vivid description, and the mouth-watering scene emerged in her mind involuntarily. She licked her lips unconsciously, revealing a greedy cat-like expression and said: "Oh my, I feel like drooling just thinking about it! I really want to taste this delicacy soon!"
"Okay, then take it back and I'll make it for you to try!" Gu Chang's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a bright smile.
The stream meanders through the mountains and forests, and the water gurgles, making clear and pleasant sounds.
The water all comes from the majestic waterfall on the top of the mountain, rushing down and converging here.
As the surrounding environment has not been disturbed by much human intervention, the water is clear and pure, without any impurities. It is like a transparent mirror, clearly reflecting the colorful stones at the bottom of the stream and the happily swimming fish.
These little fishes play freely in the water. They are small and exquisite, and their scales shine with charming luster.
The small fish raised in such a natural and pollution-free environment must have tender and delicious meat, and are definitely the best choice for cooking delicious food.
"Yeah!"
Hearing that Gu Chang was going to cook himself, Jiang Mozi couldn't help but show his joy. He clasped his hands together in front of his chest and responded with anticipation on his face.
Her big watery eyes were shining with excitement at this moment, and she seemed to be unable to wait to taste the delicious food.
Wang Xianye, a war correspondent who had been following the two men quietly, quickly ran away after seeing them successfully complete the rock climbing challenge.
After all, he had secretly witnessed a lot of interesting things during this period of time, which was a feast for his eyes.
But if he continued to follow, it would be terrible if Gu Chang found him! With Gu Chang's hot temper, he might beat him up mercilessly.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant ringtone sounded like a sharp sword, instantly piercing the originally calm atmosphere like a lake - "Ding..." This sudden sound made everyone present look sideways.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a light flashing in Jiang Mozi's handbag. The ringing sound came from her cell phone.
Jiang Mozi was slightly startled, then quickly lowered her head to check.
When she saw the caller on the screen, she couldn't help feeling a little surprised, because the person calling was none other than her father.
She took a deep breath, gently slid the answer button, put the phone close to her ear, and said softly, "Hello, Dad, what's wrong?"
Jiang Fengtian's hearty and friendly laughter came from the other end of the phone: "Mozi, where are you playing now?"
Hearing his father's question, Jiang Mozi answered without hesitation, "He's with Gu Chang!"
"Oh? You are at Gu Chang's place?" There was a hint of surprise in Jiang Fengtian's voice.
"Yes!" Jiang Mozi responded in a relaxed tone.
"What's wrong, Dad? Is there something you want to ask me?"
"Oh, that's right. Our group has successfully acquired the 'Green Selection' project. After some discussion among the top executives, we decided to send a young and energetic person to take charge of the daily work there!"
Jiang Fengtian smiled and patiently explained the reason to Jiang Mozi.
"As for Dad, I have always had a candidate in mind, and that's you, Mozi! I sincerely hope that you will take on this important task."
"This party is a great training opportunity for you. It will allow you to accumulate more valuable experience and continuously improve your abilities. In this way, it will be a natural progression for you to take over your father's job in the future!"
Jiang Fengtian's words were full of expectations.
However, Jiang Mozi didn't agree. She playfully rolled her eyes and responded unhappily, "Dad, look at what you're saying! You're in your prime and in good health, so why are you thinking about a successor? Even if you really want to consider this, it'll be in time in a dozen years!"
Then, Jiang Mozi added seriously, "And to be honest, I really don't have the slightest interest in the complicated affairs within the group! So, you should look for someone else!"
Hearing his daughter's words, Jiang Fengtian couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of helplessness on his face. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Okay, since you don't want to listen to Dad's nagging, then I'll tell you straight!"
"In fact, regarding this external candidate, our group is in fierce competition with the Lichuan Group! If you are unwilling to go in the end, then this rare opportunity will most likely fall into the hands of the young people of the Lichuan Group!"
At this point, Jiang Fengtian paused, and his tone became particularly serious: "Mozi, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be a pity to miss it!"
