Chapter 18: Gained 1 Little Fanboy
[Completed the crocodile-finding quest, earning 300 exploration points.]
[Live stream searching for crocodiles to earn 100 Exploration Points.]
The object detection value on the panel has also increased from 340 points to 740 points, just 260 points short of being enough to activate an active object detection.
Yang Xun was also looking forward to seeing what it would be like to actively explore objects. After regaining his senses for a moment, he immediately picked up the live streaming pole to check out the live stream.
You won't believe it until you see it; the peak number of online viewers exceeded 1,000, and there are still 500 or 600 viewers now.
Moreover, the successful capture of the crocodile thrilled the audience, who showered the screen with flowers and gifts as if they were free.
These flowers and gifts cost money! Yang Xun was deeply moved and repeatedly expressed his gratitude to the live stream audience.
As he was about to check the backend data to see how much revenue he had made, the man in front of him asked, "Boss, are you all tied up? Should we carry the crocodile out?"
"Yes, the three of you should carry the crocodile out together."
Coming to his senses, Yang Xun nodded to the three of them.
In order to complete Yang Xun's task as soon as possible and get their wages, the three of them lifted the crocodile high above their heads and strode out of the reeds with a proud and arrogant air.
Yang Xun naturally carried the pole and walked behind, broadcasting the panoramic view of the three men carrying the crocodile in front.
This scene prompted viewers in the live stream to send out another wave of gifts.
……
At that moment, Wang Zhen and her son Wang Yuan drove to the location address that Chen Rongqian had sent her.
After getting off the car, the man, with his large frame, walked up to Chen Rongqian and asked, "Rongqian, where's the crocodile? Where's the crocodile? And where's Xiao Xun?"
Chen Rongqian pointed to the reeds and said, "Xiao Xun caught the crocodile in the reeds and has successfully captured it. They should be carrying the crocodile out now."
"No way, they not only found the crocodile, but they also captured it?"
Wang Zhen turned her head to look at the reeds, half believing and half doubting.
As for her son Wang Yuan, who followed her up, he laughed and said, "Mom, how could that man have found the crocodile so quickly and even caught it?"
But the next second, he stared blankly, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
His mother, Wang Zhen, had a similar look in her eyes, speechless: "My god, Xiao Xun really found the crocodile and carried it out, it's unbelievable."
Chen Rongqian and Chu Hanxue also saw the scene in the reed field, and their beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
The image of the three people carrying the crocodile was too shocking for them to bear.
As the four stared in disbelief, a long crocodile emerged from the reeds above the heads of the three men and placed it on the ground.
Yang Xun, who followed behind, didn't waste any words and said to the three men, "Thank you for your help, brothers. Take out your QR codes and I'll scan them to pay you."
"Boss, we should be thanking you, you've helped each of us earn two hundred dollars."
"Thank you, boss. We'll head back now. If you need anything like this again, just come to us."
After receiving the money, the three thanked each other and got into their car and left.
"It's my little crocodile."
The moment the crocodile was placed on the ground, Wang Yuan quickly went up, squatted down, and examined it. He confirmed that this was the crocodile he had raised that had escaped. After a moment of surprise, he stood up and looked at Yang Xun with eager admiration, saying, "Brother Xun, you are really amazing. You found my little crocodile in less than half an hour. I admire you very much. How did you do it? Brother Xun, do you take on apprentices? I want to learn this skill from you."
"Ah Yuan, I was just lucky. I don't really have any skills, and there's nothing I can teach you."
Yang Xun waved his hand and politely declined, then turned to look at Wang Zhen and said, "Sister Wang, we've found the crocodile. We shouldn't delay, let's get it back now."
"Oh, okay, okay."
Wang Zhen nodded repeatedly.
Subsequently, since the electric vehicle was not suitable for carrying such a large crocodile, and Wang Zhen was driving an SUV, the crocodile had to be forcibly loaded into the vehicle so that Wang Zhen could drive it back first.
"Sister Chen, let's go back too."
The car slowly drove away. Yang Xun put away his things and then got on the electric scooter to go back with them.
"I... this awful streamer."
The two electric bikes drove away, leaving Chu Hanxue standing there for a moment, bewildered in the wind. After biting her lip, she got back on the bike and went home.
……
Soon, Yang Xun and Chen Rongqian rode their electric bikes back to Wang Zhen's residence.
It took some time to unload the crocodile from the car and carry it into the yard.
As for how Wang Zhen and her son would deal with the crocodile, Yang Xun had no interest in that. Instead, after drinking a few cups of tea, he subtly brought up the issue of payment.
"Oh, Xiao Xun, I almost forgot, I'll transfer the money to you right away."
Wang Zhen then took out her phone and transferred 20,000 yuan to Yang Xun, saying enviously, "Xiao Xun, I've transferred the money to you. But Xiao Xun, you earned 20,000 yuan in less than a day. I'm so envious."
"Just lucky."
With another 20,000 yuan in hand, Yang Xun, in high spirits, modestly said, "Sister Chen, Sister Wang, and that Ah Yuan, let's go out for a meal together."
Chen Rongqian immediately agreed: "Xiao Xun, even if you don't mention eating, I will. I introduced you to such a big business deal, it wouldn't be right not to treat me to a meal."
"This isn't my money yet."
Wang Zhen laughed and said, "If I had believed that Xiao Xun had this ability from the beginning, I wouldn't have made a bet with you, Rong Qian. Twenty thousand yuan could buy countless crocodiles."
"Mom, can the value of my pet crocodile be measured in money? It's only 20,000 yuan. You're not short of money, so what's wrong with giving Xun Ge some?"
Wang Yuan retorted, then smiled at Yang Xun: "Brother Xun, don't you think so? Brother Xun, you should reconsider taking on a disciple. My apprenticeship gift will definitely satisfy you."
"Ah Yuan, I really can't take on any more apprentices. If there are any more lost items in the future, and you have time, I can take you to look for them."
Yang Xun couldn't very well refuse this little fanboy.
Wang Yuan nodded excitedly, "Okay, Brother Xun, it's a deal then. Whenever I have free time, remember to call me if you're looking for anything else."
"Um."
Yang Xun nodded slightly.
Afterwards, the four of them went to a high-end restaurant for a big meal and drinks, and then Yang Xun and Chen Rongqian rode their electric bikes back together.
"Xiao Xun, would you like to come up for a cup of tea?"
"Sister Chen, no, I'm a little tired after a busy day, I want to rest early."
"OK."
At the entrance of the rented room, Yang Xun declined Chen Rongqian's invitation and went back inside.
After taking a shower, he once again weighed his wealth and assets.
Today, I found the crocodile and received a reward of 20,000 yuan. The revenue share from the live streaming platform reached a peak of more than 3,000 yuan. Adding the previous 70,000 yuan and the more than 1,000 yuan spent on food, I still have more than 90,000 yuan left.
Yang Xun also considered the issue of live streaming equipment. Without frowning, he spent several thousand yuan to order a set of live streaming equipment.
After several days of searching for the items, he has decided to make live-streaming item discovery his life's work.
Just as Yang Xun was about to rest, his little fanboy Wang Yuan sent him a message.
"Brother Xun, are you asleep? A classmate of mine has lost a duck. Brother Xun, would you be willing to help my classmate find it? My classmate is willing to pay three thousand yuan."
