Heichenshi rubbed his eyebrows lightly without saying anything.
Tianluo, standing nearby, asked in astonishment, "Without a trading center, where do they get their supplies? Why did you say they were self-sufficient? How did they do that?"
The senior executive opened the document in his hand and read it again. "The members of that team said they saw the islanders eating barbecued meat and roasted fruit from afar. The members didn't see any marine trading center or a port specially prepared for trading on the island, so they suspected that the islanders could obtain food on the island."
Heichenshi nodded in understanding, and the other senior executives at the meeting also showed a look of sudden realization.
Only Yu Tong and the system, who were eavesdropping on the side, were confused.
The meeting has moved on to the next topic. The carpenter who is responsible for making the prosthesis for Heichenshi said that the prosthesis will be ready in about a week.
Production is complete.
But the captain's current body is not suitable for the use of artificial limbs, and he has to wait until the wound is completely healed before he can use them. So they specially made a wheel
Chair, for Heichen Stone to travel.
8102 endured it again and again, but still couldn't help but whispered: [What are they talking about? Is there anything wrong with self-sufficiency? Why are they against
It should be so strange. 】
Yu Tong didn't say anything. His soul entered the space, opened the original text and began to read it quickly.
After a while, he raised his head in a daze and turned to look at the system.
8102I was frightened by his expression as if he had seen a ghost.
[What's wrong? It feels like your worldview has exploded.]
Yu Tong was stunned for a moment, "Yeah, my worldview has exploded."
"Myna, there are no plants or animals in the lower seas."
"What are you talking about? Aren't you just a beast?"
"I'm not a creature from the lower seas. I was brought down from another sea by the auction house. I'm a poodle."
【???】
[Who am I? Where am I? I don’t understand what you are saying! ]

Yu Tong had not been in this world for long, only about three days in total.
During these three days, he has been following the Sky Star on the sea. Most of the time, he stayed by the side of the Black Stone, guarding the seriously ill
Brother Chen.
He had no chance to contact the outside world, and the original text of the novel and the conversations between pirates were the few channels through which he could obtain information.
Even with such a lack of information, Yu Tong still felt a strong sense of disharmony from time to time when interacting with the crew.
feel.
For example, most of the things on the Sky Star appear to be natural wood or dark wood. In fact, they are all painted on iron sheets.
Wood color paint.
The pirates carefully prepared a pet room for the puppy, which was covered with grass and a small wooden slide.
After Yu Tong's observation, he found that the lawn was fake and the slide was made of plastic.
The decorative flowers hanging in the cabin corridor are also plastic artificial flowers.
The barrels used to store alcohol and the large barrels used to store white powder on cruise ships are also iron barrels with the outer shells painted in a wood color.
If artificial flowers are used as decorations, it is because real flowers are difficult to maintain. Then why can't the table in the captain's room be made of real wood?
The table must be a painted iron table.
Besides this, there is another very strange thing.
When Yu Tong first came to this world, the Sky Star was busy killing clams.
Secretary Hongying held the puppy in her arms and led him through the crowd on the deck to find the Black Chen Stone.
Along the way, Yu Tong heard a lot from the conversations of the crew members.
Dogs are something only nobles in the upper seas keep, and the black pearls were bought by the captain from an auction house at a high price.
Hei Chenshi didn't know whether the little black dog could grow into a black general with extraordinary combat capabilities as the auction house said.
The main reason he spent so much money to buy the dog was to raise it and eat its meat.
Meat was a luxury and no one on the ship had ever eaten real meat.
Hongying would pet the little black dog and ask him to grow up quickly and become fat and strong so that everyone on the ship could taste the dog food.
Meat.
When the crew members saw him, they would praise him for being cute and swallow their saliva.
The anomalies on the Sky Star can already explain a lot.
In the lower seas, both animals and plants are rare.
The original text and Heishenshi's dream illustrate this point more intuitively.
Whether it is people living on the sea or fishermen on the seashore.
These people who live by the sea are all doing one thing.
Fish things out of the sea and exchange them for money.
The difference is that people in the Heichen Stone period would go to the trading center to exchange money.
Eighteen years later, the original male protagonist was taken directly to the market to sell for money.
Fishermen don't catch fish, they follow others to catch things.
There are three reasons for this phenomenon.
First, under the laws of the lower seas, all fish in the ocean are protected animals. Fish are protected by law and no one is allowed to
Catching and slaughtering.
This is unrealistic.
Pirates are not good law-abiding citizens. They even kill people, so why would they care about protecting animals?
Even in lower-class waters, fish are truly endangered species and are protected.
These pirates would not hesitate to catch the fish and eat them.
Second, fish are not valuable in inferior waters, and people here don’t like to eat fish.
The money earned from fishing is not as fast as the money earned from exchanging things for fish. So the fishermen gave up fishing and chose to salvage things that had sunk in the ocean.
West.
Judging from the pirates' reactions, it can be seen that this possibility is unrealistic.
No one on the boat had ever eaten real meat. Fish is also meat. Since they could say such things, they naturally had never eaten fish.
If the first two possibilities are ruled out, only the third one remains.
Fishermen don't fish because there are no fish in the inferior waters.
There are serious ecological problems in the lower sea area. There are no animals or plants here.
