Four forty
Song Yun and Shao Quan appeared at the beach, each holding a wooden barrel given by the logistics team.
The people from the logistics team originally wanted to come along, but were called away by the squad leader, who said they had to go find fresh water nearby. Water was the only thing left on the island, and they had to find it as soon as possible. They couldn't just rely on the water brought in by the supply ship, as that would probably be very insufficient.
"Crab, there are crabs here." As soon as Shaoquan arrived at the beach, he saw a big crab lying on the beach. He ran over excitedly to catch it.
Song Yun called out to him, "Be careful, don't get pinched by the crab's claws."
Unfortunately, he was too slow to shout, and Shaoquan was pinched by the crab claws as soon as he stretched out his hand. Song Yun ran to rescue his hand, and the skin was not broken, just a little red and swollen.
"Why is this thing so fierce?"
Song Yun threw the stunned crab into the bucket and said with a smile, "If you were it, would you be fierce?"
Shaoquan thought about it and smiled, "Then I must be more ferocious than it."
With the first harvest, there will be a second harvest.
The tide had just receded on the beach, and since it was an uninhabited island, there was quite a lot of seafood, and no one was competing with them for it. They just picked up a lot and filled two buckets. Unfortunately, most of them were shelled, which was not only tiring to eat but also not satisfying.
Song Yun wants fish.
"I'll take these two buckets out first, empty them, and then come back." Shaoquan said.
Song Yun nodded, "Okay, then you go ahead and I'll look for any sea fish."
After leaving Shaoquan, Song Yun began to stroll along the beach and stopped at a rocky beach. She found that the water on this side of the rocky beach was deeper. At this time, the sun appeared above the horizon, and the situation in the water could be seen more clearly. The pebbles that she had been holding in her hand suddenly shot out, and a fish weighing at least thirteen or fourteen pounds floated up. A wave pushed the big fish directly to her feet. She only needed to bend down and reach out to pick up the big fish. It felt so cool.
After throwing the fish onto the beach, she continued to stand on the reef and stare at the water. After staring for a while, she took action again and caught another slightly smaller fish, but also weighing about ten kilograms.
Considering that there are eight teams plus two team doctors, four logistics staff, and a commander, a total of fourteen people, this amount of fish is not enough to eat. At this rate, it is estimated that they will not catch many by eight o'clock.
She glanced at the road she came from, Shaoquan hadn't turned back yet, and looked around again. After making sure that no one was nearby, she took out a low-level nutrient solution and poured a few drops into the sea water in front of her.
The imagined scene of fish crowding each other did not appear, but there were obviously more fish than before. Song Yun first scanned two fish with her watch and harvested 100 star coins. Then she threw a few stones into the water and the big fish floated up.
She remembered that she had just added three drops of nutrient solution and water, plus the two she scanned and traded, she got a fish.
Seeing that no fish came, she dropped five more drops of nutrient solution into the water and waited for an hour. The fish came, and there were obviously more of them this time than last time. Two of them were different from the previous ones. She didn't know what species they were, so she just scanned them with her watch and harvested another 180 star coins. She hit the remaining nine fish with stones.
When Shaoquan came over, he was stunned to see the huge fish piled up on the beach. "Where did this come from?"
Song Yun pointed at the two large fish at her feet that she had deliberately not picked up. "They floated here. I don't know how it happened, but fish keep floating here. They are all newly dead. Some are not dead yet, but just fainted."
None of the fish she caught had their heads shot. Some were dead, and some were just stunned, and it was hard to tell the difference from the outside.
Shao Quan saw with his own eyes two fish floating under Song Yun's feet, and immediately believed her words. He ran to Song Yun excitedly, and they each caught one fish.
"How are we going to get so many fish?" Their wooden barrels were not big. Two barrels could only hold four fish at most. The road was not short, so they would have to make many trips back and forth. There must be dozens of fish in them.
Each one weighs more than ten kilograms and looks very fresh. If this were in Sichuan Province, this pile of fish would be worth a lot of money.
Song Yun pointed to the woods behind Shaoquan and said, "I see some vines over there. I'll go get some and we'll make a big net. We can put these fish in the net and drag them away."
This method sounded good, Shaoquan immediately agreed, and the two of them went to pull the vines together. This was a deserted island, and the tide had receded, so it wouldn't rise for a while, so there was no need to worry about anyone catching the fish.
