Chapter 104

After leaving the island, life had to go on day by day. There was nothing special about Qiao Sheng. Every day was very repetitive. In addition to collecting food, he also collected supplies. He had never even encountered an ordinary island.

Friends sent letters because there were no fish in the sea. This news was not that surprising, but it came a little suddenly. The day before, he could barely catch some fish, but the next day, he really couldn't catch any fish.

Xia Beibei had never tried to catch fish for half an hour, so he simply gave up and turned to collect supplies. After catching a few times, he found something wrong. It was not until the end of the life of the entire sieve that he dared to be sure that there was no more supplies in the sea.

So the first email was from Xia Beibei, who confirmed it the fastest. She was now lying in the cabin roasting beef jerky by the fire. She also sent some to Qiao Sheng, saying that she accidentally exchanged it, and later reached a long-term exchange cooperation intention.

Qiao Sheng told Xia Beibei that if she didn't have enough to eat, she could tell her. She couldn't guarantee other ingredients, but this fish would definitely fill her up.

Later, Fang Yueyi and Lin Haiyang came to exchange information, and they couldn't catch anything.

Lin Haiyang was lucky. He had the habit of hoarding food before, and Qiao Sheng gave him a lot of food when he met him before. Even if there was no income to fill the hoard, he could survive for a month or two. He also specially marked that a normal diet would be fine for a month, and if the daily food intake was reduced by half, it would be enough for two months.

Li Murang told him to eat normally, winter should not be long. According to the reality, if we count the four seasons, the whole winter is at most three months. They have obviously passed more than half of the winter now, so they can survive a month.

Fang Yueyi's plate is too big. She and Xu Ziyan have a lot of inventory. Zheng Xi, this little girl, never gets off the boat every day. Except for cooking for the team, she stays on the boat every day to collect supplies and fish. The stock on the boat is basically earned by her. Her brother earns shelter outside, and she earns food at home.

She really doesn't know how much Pei Hong has stockpiled. The main reason is that they are not on the same boat at ordinary times. Except for encountering collective actions on the island, they are still very autonomous and free to come and go. If he really stays, he will not watch others die.

He started a food exchange service with team members. He could exchange materials for food, or food for materials. In fact, he was just a middleman, balancing the inventory between the teams. The effect was good. Now no one was hungry and no one was idle.

It was said that Li Mu had come up with this idea. The main point was that there was no idleness in the team. Everyone was moving. Now those who could stay had something outstanding. They were either good at collecting materials or fishing. Anyway, they had to master a skill. They

were busy every day before, but suddenly they stopped. Qiao Sheng was not used to it. The two of them stared at each other for a long time and decided to find something to do. It was not a good thing to be so idle. They were nervous.

Li Mu was asked to knead the dough and chop the Spanish mackerel stuffing. In the afternoon, she made some extra dumplings and froze them for storage. She also took some frozen shrimps and put them in water to thaw them. She blanched half of them and chopped the other half and put them in the dumpling stuffing

. She also cut a piece of the tentacle of a king squid. The dumpling stuffing was fresh and chewy. Qiao Sheng found the mulberry bark that she had peeled off from the island a few days ago, took a small knife and started to peel it.

"Are you getting irritated? Are you going to soak in mulberry bark water to cool down or to make paper?" Li Mu asked after he finished kneading the dough and entered the cabin, looking at the things in her hand.

"On a whim, I wanted to try making paper. You must know how to do it, right? I watched the blogger's video at the time, and I don't remember the details, but I remember it was very strenuous." Qiao Sheng felt that

it was a bit strenuous after peeling for a while. "Then you go and chop the stuffing, and I'll do this. Your idea is not bad. Try making something new, maybe your system will give you some rewards." Li Mu felt that Qiao Sheng's little brain was really quick sometimes.

Compared to peeling bark, Qiao Sheng still preferred to cook. He immediately put down the bark in his hand and turned to the chopping board to fight with the Spanish mackerel meat.

It was not until Qiao Sheng had mixed the two kinds of dumpling fillings and was ready to open the package that Li Mu finally scraped the mulberry bark, requisitioned the special iron pot for the kassapas, soaked the mulberry bark in it and started to boil. Qiao Sheng asked him why he didn't use the stove in the kitchen.

"It will take several days to cook. If you are not afraid of affecting your cooking, you can actually cook it in the kitchen. The shark meat of the few of them can be replaced with a small clay pot and boiled for a few days." Li Mu lit the stove and returned to the cabin to help roll out the dumpling skin.

The two of them wrapped dumplings from daybreak until dark. After wrapping a basket, they put it on the second-tier terrace to freeze. A few monks came over and tried to steal some, but Qiao Sheng suppressed them with force. He hit them on the head and told them to stay still. He would give them a taste at dinner time.

The three animals were quiet, but they did not stay in the cabin. They just watched the dumplings on the terrace outside without moving. As long as they did not steal some, Qiao Sheng did not care what they did.

The dumplings were wrapped and put into the pot to cook. Half of them were stuffed with Spanish mackerel and seafood, and half were stuffed with pork and cabbage. Qiao Sheng and Li Mu were not picky eaters and ate everything, so they were mixed together when they were cooked.

Unexpectedly, the three little animals became picky eaters despite the two owners being easy to raise. The cassock cub still ate everything as usual. The Arctic fox preferred Spanish mackerel and seafood, but would still eat pork and cabbage.

The most picky one was the snowy owl. It only ate Spanish mackerel and seafood, and would throw pork and cabbage into the small iron basin of the cassock cub. It was unlucky because the dumplings in the other two iron basins were not much different in terms of the two kinds of fillings.

In the bowl of the snowy owl, only two were Spanish mackerel and seafood, and the remaining eight were all pork and cabbage. The result was obvious, one was not full, and the other was so full that it could not stand up or sit down, half leaning on the bamboo bed and burping. When

the snowy owl was not full, it would find Li Mu to complain, rubbing its legs, flapping its wings and performing a show. Li Mu also gave it face and gave it a few dumplings one after another, but he was afraid that they were pork and cabbage. If the cassock cub ate them, it would really kill the bear.

So he peeled the skin and made sure that the filling was Spanish mackerel, and gave it to it. If it was not, he would eat it himself. Just like this, he ate while playing, and he could be considered full.

After the Arctic fox finished its share, it just lay on the bamboo bed, looking at the other two animals with a look of disdain in its eyes. Qiao Sheng, who was sitting on the kang eating, secretly told Li Mu that watching these three was more exciting than watching TV dramas. They could do anything and make any jokes.

At night, the little guy was able to sit up straight after walking around the cabin with the cassock cub for dozens of laps. The snowy owl squatted on the back of the sofa, and the Arctic fox lay on the sofa cushion, looking at the cassock cub spinning around like a fool. I don't know what the cubs at the bottom of society think.

Qiao Sheng really wants to see if this guy can fight back and retaliate against the two adults when he grows up.

Before going to bed, Li Mu decided to change the mulberry bark and replaced it with the pot that Qiao Sheng usually used to brined pork. The pot was deep, filled with water, and boiled it on low heat all night, but it still didn't dry up. The previous iron pot didn't work, so he had to get up and add water.

There was less dryness during the day, and he went to bed early at night, so he got up especially early. Li Mu checked the mulberry bark in the brined pork pot. There was no problem, so he added water and continued to cook, and added firewood to make the fire bigger.

After doing all this, Qiao Sheng had already prepared breakfast. Li Mu went to feed all the animals at home before eating.

After dinner, he put on his fish bone bracelet, took his fishing rod and went downstairs to fish. This was a good time to make money. Others couldn't catch fish and had no food to eat, but he could catch fish. However, in order to hide his strength, he couldn't take out fresh fish to exchange, so he had to use the frozen fish they had cut up before to exchange for supplies.

This gave Qiao Sheng a new job - cutting fish. The two of them became busy immediately. Li Mu could take a break after catching a few dozen fish, and when Qiao Sheng finished cutting up the fish, he would move them out and throw them on the terraces on the second and third floors. It wouldn't take long for them to be frozen hard.

He took some frozen fish from the food box in the kitchen and put it on the trading system. It was sold out in seconds. Qiao Sheng took the time to scan the world channel and saw a player saying that low-priced frozen fish appeared in the trading system. He didn't know which idiot was selling it, so everyone rushed to grab it.

"They said that this idiot is you? You are selling frozen fish at the lowest price?" Qiao Sheng stared at the world channel and asked uncertainly.

"It's not particularly low, but I'm not as black-hearted as other players who take advantage of the situation. The proportion of exchanging materials has increased a lot compared to usual, about 30%." Li Mu was stunned by her question. He looked at other people's orders and then realized why he was called a fool.

"It has been raised, so there is no problem. We don't make money like this. You said we can earn more for clothes and daily necessities. We don't think it's good to make money on food." Qiao Sheng shook his head and continued to browse the world channel.

There were all kinds of comments, and some people spoke for them, saying that the things that player No. 18 posted in the trading system were not particularly expensive, never sold at the lowest price, and never followed the market. He didn't have the market motive of a businessman at all. He was really a good person.

Now there are two kinds of voices in the channel. One side said that Li Mu was a fool and didn't understand business, and the other side said that he was a noble person and was not like those greedy villains.

"No. 18, you are almost the boss. That player 666 has been praising you in the world channel. I am embarrassed to say those words. If you were not standing in front of me, I would have thought that the player 18 in his mouth was a god." Qiao Sheng was having fun in the world channel.

Li Mu was also straightforward. He picked up the fishing rod and caught two fresh fish without gutting them. He directly sent an exclusive order to player 666, two fresh fish in exchange for a leaf.

A few minutes later, Qiao Sheng knew where the fresh fish that he suddenly caught and suddenly disappeared from his hands went.

[666: Ah, I said that player 18 is my god! Anyone who says bad things about him is my enemy! I have memorized all the IDs of you villains. When I get a dog one day, I will send you shitty orders every day! My God sent me fish to eat, and you villains can cry with an empty stomach. 】

"You didn't tell me that player 666 was in this situation before. I seem to have chosen the wrong person." Li Mu, who had not watched the world channel and relied on Qiao Sheng to relay the news, finally opened the world channel. This sentence caught his eye and he suddenly regretted sending fish.

"Then I didn't expect you to suddenly send him fish. I just mentioned his ID because he was dancing the most happily. You didn't ask me what he said specifically." Qiao Sheng laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.
