It was already 9:30 in the morning when I left the company.
Yang Zheng ate a bowl of beef noodles at a nearby noodle shop, and then went to a small supermarket to buy some bread and dry food that was easy to carry.
Of course, you should also bring two bottles of water.
Yesterday, I entered the small world and was both thirsty and hungry, which caused me a great loss.
Having learned from his previous mistake, he will not repeat such a basic error.
Even if you return to Earth to eat, you must bring enough food for a day when you enter the small world.
On his way back to his rented room on his electric bike, he saw a fishing tackle shop with fishing nets hanging all over the entrance, along with some other miscellaneous net bags.
Yang Zheng paused to think for a moment, then prepared to buy some fishing supplies to take back.
Especially for fishing nets, you should buy several sets.
Constantly catching wild rabbits and wild boars is not a long-term solution.
Although the regulations are lax now, I'm afraid that if they become stricter in the future, no one will dare to take them in.
If there are other ways to make money in the future, try to avoid hunting.
Currently, fishing seems to be a decent source of income.
Moreover, those big bluefish are very expensive, so I hope to have a good catch today.
With the items he had purchased, Yang Zheng returned to his rented apartment in the suburbs.
I checked the time; it was exactly 10:30 a.m.
It's getting late, time to hurry up and enter the small world to make some money.
Thinking of this, he took out the Tai Chi Pearl and opened the portal between the two worlds.
Then everything went black.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already inside the small world.
Standing on the familiar hillside, I looked up and observed the sky.
"The weather is nice today, the sun is finally coming out!"
There were many clouds in the sky, but there was a faint trend of the clouds clearing up.
Yang Zheng's goal was very clear: to catch a big fish.
"First, find that lake and release the fishing nets..."
He brought quite a lot of things with him when he entered the small world this time.
A large snakeskin bag contained three 50-meter-long fishing nets and a sturdy bucket.
He also carried a canvas bag containing dry food and drinking water.
In addition, I bought a new, sturdy landing net.
The mesh of this landing net is relatively small, and the main pole can be extended and retracted, so prey the size of a finger cannot escape.
It's getting late, I need to hurry.
And so, Yang Zheng, carrying the things, walked down the hillside as quickly as possible.
The hillside where the portal is located is about a few kilometers away from the lake where the big bluefish was found yesterday.
If you walk a little faster, it will only take ten or twenty minutes to get there.
Soon, Yang Zheng arrived at the open grassland below the hillside.
A hundred meters ahead is that mini river, only a few meters wide.
Just like when he came back yesterday, he carried his things and went downstream along the river. Before long, he saw the huge lake.
He could see it clearly from a great distance.
A group of black bison, about 20 centimeters tall and 30 centimeters long, were leisurely grazing on the grass by the lake.
I roughly estimated that there were at least a hundred bison of all sizes in this herd.
Although they are all miniature bison that have been shrunk down.
However, if we extrapolate from the normal size on Earth, these adult bison would weigh at least a thousand kilograms.
For this tiny world, they are a group of enormous creatures.
Looking at this group of wild, large animals, Yang Zheng was very tempted.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to take him out and sell him!
Forget it, fishing is still the safest option.
The giant strode swiftly toward the giant lake with heavy, mountain-like steps.
The commotion quickly alerted the bison herd.
When Yang Zheng was less than fifty meters away from the bison herd, the young bison fled the lake shore and ran in groups toward the woods not far from the shore.
The sight of hundreds of bison running wildly at the same time was quite a commotion.
Watching the bison flee in terror, Yang Zheng shook his head inwardly and said, "Why are you running? I'm not going to catch you..."
We arrived at the place where we found the big bluefish yesterday.
Yang Zheng placed all his belongings on the grass and then began to select a body of water to set his nets.
However, before setting the net, he decided to venture deeper into the central area of the lake to see just how deep the deepest part of the lake really was.
Anyway, he can swim, so there's no need to worry about him drowning.
After exploring the lake, he discovered that the deepest part of the lake only reached his chest.
In most of the area, the water level only reached knee-deep.
Based on the scaled-down model, the deepest part of the lake is about twelve meters, while the depth in other areas is about five or six meters.
Within 20 meters of the lake shore, the water depth is generally two to three meters.
After careful consideration, Yang Zheng decided to set the net in waters fifty meters away from the lake shore.
The depth there is just above the knee.
It's about 50 or 60 centimeters long.
Normally, those big bluefish should live at the bottom of this water.
The three fishing nets he bought in the morning were all about 50 or 60 centimeters wide, which are relatively small.
On Earth, it could only catch small crucian carp, whitebait, and other miscellaneous fish.
Fish weighing more than half a pound simply won't stick.
But such a net is perfect for a small world.
Because of these three nets, including the sinker, they effectively block the lake water, making it less likely for large fish to escape.
Of course, it can only catch fish that are more than ten centimeters long here.
Like most small fish in the lake, they swim right through the mesh of the net and are impossible to catch.
After selecting the area, Yang Zheng took out three fishing nets and quietly walked to the middle of the lake, releasing a section of the net with each step.
It took about ten minutes to put all three fishing nets into the lake.
During the process of setting up the net.
He intentionally arranged the three fishing nets into a huge cage, so that when he hauled in the nets later, he could make some noise in the middle, running and stirring things up in the water. He figured that some of the big fish would be frightened and dart around, and might get stuck in the nets.
The fishing nets have been set, and there will definitely be no fish caught in them for a while.
We'll talk about it when we get back.
Yang Zheng checked the time; it was already past 11 a.m.
I entered the interdimensional portal at 10:30 AM, and six hours later it was 4:30 PM.
He must return to the real world before 4:30.
From today onwards, every time he enters the small world, he must calculate the time to return.
Otherwise, if he forgets the time and stays here for more than six hours, he will shrink to a tiny size of a dozen centimeters.
At that time, this primeval forest will be fraught with danger.
However, it was still early, so he decided to take a walk in the surrounding mountains and forests to see if he could make any unexpected discoveries.
Since gaining the ability to enter the small world, he has spent his free time these past few days browsing pictures and information on his phone.
I want to understand more clearly whether there are any other valuable things besides wild game and river delicacies in those resource-rich primeval forests.
Ideally, it should be something that can be sold easily on Earth and is legal.
Currently, the most abundant resource in this small world is timber.
Unfortunately, he searched online and found that the country now has relatively strict regulations on forestry protection.
If you want to cut down trees and sell them, you're likely to be caught.
Moreover, you need forestry approval to get a logging permit... In short, buying and selling timber is very troublesome, extremely troublesome.
Moreover, ordinary timber costs only a little over a thousand per ton.
Even if all your timber comes from another world and doesn't damage the country's forests, how will you explain it when people investigate?
It will be exposed sooner or later.
Another, more troublesome problem is where you store your timber?
The trees here are very large and thick, and of very high quality.
If you bring it back to Earth, it will grow so big in six hours that you'll have nowhere to put it.
Even if you rent a spacious place in the countryside, how do you explain all this extra timber out of nowhere?
Finding vehicles for transportation and searching for buyers... all these factors make selling timber in large quantities extremely troublesome.
However, large-scale timber sales may not be feasible.
However, it's still possible to sell a small amount of relatively precious and sought-after timber.
For example, small-leaf sandalwood, rosewood, and submerged wood.
Of course, that's assuming he can find it in this world.
In addition, he also searched for pictures of wild fruits and medicinal herbs, such as ginseng, lingzhi, and yew fruit.
There are also rare wild mushrooms...
Because of his enormous size in this world, it would be difficult to spot such things, so he carried a magnifying glass with him to search for and observe them.
After getting ashore, Yang Zheng looked up and gazed ahead.
It was a dense forest that reached chest height.
He remembered clearly that he had walked out of that jungle yesterday and then discovered this giant lake.
Suddenly, he remembered the cliff where the white tiger was hidden.
"By the way, at the top of that cliff that's tens of meters high, there's a towering tree that's over six meters tall. Yesterday I vaguely saw that it was covered in red fruit and it was emitting a strange fruity fragrance."
"Hmm, while I'm free now, I'll go check it out again..."
