Seeing the dejected little turtle, Jiang An patted its head tenderly and comforted it, "Little turtle, don't be discouraged. The resources in the seabed are limited, and we can't always have a big harvest. Maybe our luck will be better next time! Besides, didn't we have a harvest today? Although it wasn't much, it's better than nothing!"
The little turtle seemed to understand Jiang An's words. It nodded, and its eyes regained their luster.
Then it followed Jiang An back to the steamship. This time it didn't continue on the ship; instead, it returned to the ship, ate two pieces of ice marrow, and then fell into a deep sleep.
"Xiao Zhi, start the boat, proceed at top speed." The first thing Jiang An did upon returning to the cabin was to order Xiao Zhi to start the boat.
[Master, Ash has received this!]
Jiang An thought for a moment and continued, "Xiao Zhi, if the steamship encounters any danger during its voyage, please notify me immediately! After sailing 320 kilometers today, give a voice prompt and stop the ship!"
[Xiao Zhi received it!]
With this new system, Jiang An no longer stayed in the cabin, but went to the lower deck workshop.
She broke down the coal ore she had collected from the seabed that day. Although she didn't get much coal, it was enough for the steamship to use for two days.
She had a lot of wood left.
"It's time to prepare the materials for upgrading to level 6!" Jiang An said, looking at the numerous basic materials in his backpack.
In this dangerous world of maritime survival, leveling up means greater safety.
Jiang An's current level 5 steamship ranks her among the top players in server 2333.
While other players were still on rafts, living in simple, poorly insulated cabins and using stoves for warmth, she had already moved on to a life with central heating.
As long as she stayed inside the cabin, she wouldn't feel the biting cold outside.
To live a more comfortable life, one naturally needs to put in more effort and pay a higher price.
Therefore, she was always more diligent than others.
After completing the decomposition, Jiang An skillfully turned on the light screen and entered his small shop.
However, to her surprise, the two water purifiers she had previously listed were already sold out.
"What's going on?" Jiang An asked, puzzled.
She quickly turned on the regional channel to try and figure out what had happened.
After a long search, she finally found the answer.
It turns out that the drop in temperature caused some players' water purifiers to freeze and break, rendering them unable to purify water.
So these players began looking for other solutions to obtain clean water.
Some players, thinking themselves clever, boiled the collected clean snow water and used it as drinking water. At first, there were no problems, but as time went on, various aftereffects followed, with vomiting and diarrhea occurring frequently.
This incident was revealed by a player named Cheng Chen, sparking heated discussions among players.
After all, the temperature isn't high enough to freeze a person to death, and having survived in the wild for so long, they should know that drinking boiled snow water can have adverse effects on their health.
So those players who say they're about to die are probably just trying to get attention.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that merchants are fueling the trend in order to sell water purifiers.
Players in Zone 2333 all own a water purifier, causing water purifier sales to plummet.
After Jiang An's mid-range water purifier was released, it triggered a wave of sales, but as time went by, it became increasingly rare.
Water purifiers are no longer selling well.
However, regardless of the circumstances, this news still caught Jiang An's attention.
She realized that this could be a business opportunity.
She decided to seize this opportunity and restock a batch of water purifiers.
