Yue Feng's store had a section of floats in stock on the display shelves, but for some reason, possibly to increase the difficulty of the task, these were all low-priced and low-quality goods. They might be suitable for elder fishermen who prefer cheap gear and are reluctant to spend more money, but more discerning anglers would take one look and then ignore the rest.
The circulation version floats won from the lottery, though lacking a manufacturer's brand mark, were observed with the naked eye to have fine details and superb craftsmanship without any defects. The date seed buoy type is very versatile and appropriate for various fishing conditions; anyone knowledgeable about floats and in need would definitely not reject them.
These ten floats were clearly not meant for Yue Feng's personal use, as indicated by the words 'circulation version'. Thus, Yue Feng guiltlessly positioned the floats in the most noticeable spot on the display shelves within the float section. Now, even the most fastidious fishing buddies coming to look for floats wouldn't have to endure that contemptuous glare.
The existence of Qing Hong fishing rods and peacock feather floats had already imbued Yue Feng with an immense trust in the system's products, so he priced the floats quite high at $150 each—almost on par with domestic top-tier brands.
Once the two drawing sessions concluded, Yue Feng was highly satisfied with the results and after recording the day's transactions in the ledger, he contentedly went upstairs to rest.
Yue Feng went on with his business as usual, but the Moments posts from Liu Fengnian and the others caused an uproar within the fisherman's circle.
Fishermen often connect with one another, and frequent anglers would inevitably make some friends over time. Liu Fengnian, a considerably experienced angler, had an extensive network.
Many anglers who hadn't paid attention to Yue Feng's bait and groundbait before, upon seeing the shared catches, began inquiring everywhere. Having received favors, they naturally had a good impression, and old Liu spared no effort in praising.
As a result, early the next morning, Yue Feng was baffled by the stream of customers in his store.
Starting from half-past five in the morning, as the sky lightened, there was rarely a moment without visitors. Most of them purchased the Rice Wine + Formula Bait combo, selling at least 25 sets by morning, with over a hundred sets of carp hand-tied hooks also sold off the shelves.
When the store calmed down around nine o'clock, Yue Feng glanced at his task record, which showed the current popularity at 103/300, finally breaking through the hundred mark!
To accomplish the task, Yue Feng explained in detail to every customer who bought the bait combo about the promotional rewards. Thus began an almost viral marketing campaign.
Catching 30 pounds of fish in a day is quite challenging for an ordinary angler unless they encounter excellent fishing conditions. However, if they were using products from Yue Feng's store, the difficulty would be cut by more than half. With just a bit of cooperation from the fish and proper skills from the angler, winning the reward became possible.
With the help of powerful groundbait, hand food, and satisfactory fishing skills combined with keen fishing enthusiasm, more anglers soon received the promised in-house formula bait from Yue Feng.
As more winning anglers appeared, the heat of the Moments advertisements continued to rise. The sales at Yue Feng's store began to snowball in growth.
Three days later, Yue Feng successfully completed the challenge task!
Ding! Congratulations on completing the challenge task [Store Popularity]

[Fish Emotion Perception]: Understanding the water conditions and sensing the fish's intentions! Through judgment of hydrology, climate, barometric pressure, and real-life buoy sight, grasp the basic fish activity underwater. Accuracy rate 80%
In an instant, a vast array of knowledge flooded Yue Feng's mind.
Although it was only a beginner's level, the knowledge involved in an advanced skill like this was much broader than those related to fundamental skills such as Basic Casting. Several factors had to be taken into account to make an accurate judgment of fish activity.
Having acquired several beginner skills in succession, Yue Feng had a thought and pulled up his personal data tab.
