Chapter 51 Be careful, Diaoyutai might get caught on a street lamp.
Such a big fish, even if Zhu Sha came, it would take several days to eat. Shen Dixin let Lu Mingang arrange it, and turned her head away. She didn't trigger a critical hit when fishing for the mountain mulberry fish, otherwise she wouldn't be feeling so distressed now.
With two large fishing nets full of fish, Chen Di hesitated for a moment, then hung the nets on the side of the boat, deciding to let the fish live in the water a little longer.
With so many fish trapped in the net, its durability will drop quickly, but there's no other way now. Fishing nets aren't rare anyway, so it's acceptable to waste a few.
Shen Dixin opened the reward bag given to her by Zhanlan; inside was only a blueprint.
[Blueprint for the bag falling from the fishing platform x1]
[Congratulations, player, you have triggered the talent effect! 3 Cloth Bag Drops!]
On the surface, it was just a green drawing, but Shen Dixin was stunned. Architectural drawings? It was hard not to suspect that Zhan Lan had tucked something in there. She silently increased her favorability towards Zhan Lan in her heart.
Recalling the little girl's anticipation and confusion when she talked about the game, regret showed in her eyes. Zhanlan was clearly a white-faced person with some thoughts, but she did not have enough ability to maintain a complete understanding.
Shen Dixin then examined which spot on the boat was suitable for placing a fishing platform. She rarely used a fishing rod, but the catch bonus from the fishing platform applied to her fishing nets.
Currently, leveling up one's character is still very important, so she decided to keep one for herself.
Unlike building blueprints, item blueprints each have a limited number of uses.
[Building Name: Diaoyutai]
Item Quality: Green
Available uses: 1
Materials needed: 200 planks, 20 nails, 20 ropes
[Building effect: Increases fish bite speed by 40% while fishing, and increases catch rate by 10% within the boat's range.]
After looking around, Shen Dixin placed the fishing platform on the right side of the boat, near the bow, right next to the mailbox.
The fishing platform is one meter long and two meters wide, and it has been carefully equipped with railings and racks for holding fishing rods and tackle.
It looks fine on its own, but it's really out of place on Shen Dixing's small boat, like an ordinary enamel basin with a pendant a quarter the size of the basin hanging on it.
It's a bit too much for my eyes... Shen Dixin gained motivation to work harder in silence, he needed to upgrade to a higher-level ship as soon as possible.
She set up an auction link for the remaining two drawings on the shop, with a starting bid of one hour, and also promoted them in the chat channel.
Unlike equipment, no fisherman can resist the allure of fishing platforms! For them, increasing their catch and hook-up efficiency simply means accelerating their acquisition of resources and leveling up.
Therefore, auctioning is the best way; you can buy at whatever price you're willing to pay.
King of Salted Fish: Diaoyutai?! Nobody can stop me!! I'll go bankrupt if I have to take it!!
Grayscale: Dude, weren't you just yelling about dying yesterday? You still have money to buy this @KingofSaltedFish
I want to buy ten: @AAA Supplies Wholesale Lao Shen, can you take a look and DM me? I want to snatch some good stuff.
Unaware of the nature of heaven and earth: Hijacking this deal, add one, please take a look, absolutely will not offer a low price!!
Shen Dixin clicked in and saw several people saying they wanted to "hijack" the bids, but the prices weren't that high. Later, it got out of control, and everyone said they wanted to "hijack" the bids.
She gave a unified reply in the chat channel.
AAA Materials Wholesaler Lao Shen: I don't accept snatching. If you want something, you have to bid directly. In the end, I make the decision. I won't miss out on good stuff.
Yes, Shen Dixin was really worried about the prices determined by the system, so she had it select the top ten most valuable items for her to decide herself.
The bidding was in full swing, and when the results were presented to Shen Dixing, she was surprised by the fishermen's frenzy. She, who didn't fish much, had underestimated the appeal of the phrase "speed up the hooking process".
Her first reaction was to turn her head to look at the fishing platform. The parasol she had used when she first entered the game was still working diligently. She had put it out to block the sun because of the good weather today, and now it blended in perfectly with the fishing platform, looking very relaxed and natural.
She was starting to regret it... Shen Dixin looked down at the quote and even had the urge to turn Diaoyutai back into blueprints. She should have known better than to use it so hastily.
She cleared her mind, stopped being upset, and figured that since there weren't many items that could increase experience points right now, she might as well just treat it as a way to level up.
King of Salted Fish: Gears x5, Dusty Jewelry x2, Backpack Expansion Slots x2.
Bitter Almonds: 20 Gold Nuggets, 20 Silver Nuggets, 1 Pet Potential Activation Fluid, 1 Experience Bottle, 1 Mysterious Seed, 1 Sapphire, 1 Emerald.
After comparing the offers repeatedly, the two players' bids were finally selected. The King of Salted Fish actually managed to sneak in. This guy seemed to have really struck it rich, as his bid was much higher than the other players'. Shen Dixin decided to go with him first.
She considered the remaining one for a long time, but in the end she couldn't resist the temptation of the experience bottle. The potential activation liquid could also be used on Zhu Sha.
She used the backpack's expansion compartments as soon as she got it, and now the eight-compartment backpack is enough for her daily use.
Gears are also a purple material, and currently they're not even needed for ship upgrades. The King of Salted Fish probably got lucky and made it into some high-level area and escaped unscathed.
Shen Dixin picked up the mysterious seed. It was plain-looking, oval-shaped. Wondering what it would grow into, she buried it next to Diesheng, hoping it would receive nourishment from the acorn.
Now you can see what the acorns are for – they're definitely fertilizer. After burying them, the growth of experience fruits and butterfly plants stops, replaced by an extremely slow advancement progress bar.
The progress bar for the Experience Fruit has reached 5%, while the progress for the Butterfly Life Fruit is only a pitiful 1%. Their leaves seem to be flowing with radiance.
The mind is unsure whether the purification is good or bad, because the experience is something that cannot be truly relied upon.
Even if you can advance, the experience points in the later stages are completely different from those in the early stages. The items available for survival at sea are too diverse, and even after rebirth, you can't guarantee that you won't fall into any traps.
But she was still happy to nurture the mysterious seed, since its effects weren't immediately apparent.
She fed the pet potential-stimulating liquid to Zhu Sha, and the effects were immediately apparent.
[The pet "Zhu Sha" received a potential-enhancing liquid, increasing its strength from 7 to 8.]
Finally, she picked up the experience bottle and called Lu Mingang over; this was a valuable item.
【Item Name: Experience Bottle】
Item Quality: Purple
【Durability: 2000/2000】
[Item Description: Can store 2000 experience points per day, with a maximum of 5000. Be careful not to get caught on a streetlight.]
“Lu Mingang, from now on, save 800 experience points every day, and put the rest in the bottle for me.”
The function of the experience bottle is obvious; it is generally used to buy experience from others or to more fully exploit one's contractual partners.
Shen Dixin was worried that Lu Mingang would have negative feelings, so she started to analyze the situation with him.
"I'm basically supplying you with your ingredients. Based on your daily experience gain, even if you share some with me, you won't lose out. There aren't many players who can earn 800 experience points a day right now, so you won't fall behind." Besides, we're now a unit; increasing my experience helps raise the skill ceiling…
Before Shen Dixin could say anything more, Lu Mingang, after browsing the experience bottle and understanding its usage, readily agreed while she was persuading him.
Not only was he not dissatisfied, but he also smiled broadly and said, "That's great, I can help you even more now, leave it to me!"
