Chapter 139

Once you have a plan, you must implement it. Today, it is almost time. Qiao Sheng prepared dinner first, and after dinner, he went fishing with Li Mu to fish for the fish that will be put on the trading system tomorrow.

The two of them also balanced it out. Qiao Sheng had a low luck value, so he fished with a fishbone bracelet, and Li Mu had a high luck value, so he fished with a wooden hairpin. They also calculated that in the same period of time, the number of fishbone bracelets was still more, but Li Mu only caught a few less, so on average, his fishing efficiency was much higher than that of other players.

They stored several buckets of fish the day before, and the next day they started to expand the boat. Everything was based on the second-floor greenhouse, and expanded along the other side and the stern.

They planned to build a 15*35 ship, which means the base of the ship would be 525 floating plates, nearly doubling the size. Now their ship is already much larger than other players' ships, and it would be even bigger if they expanded it further.

They were stuck on the 15*35 or 15*30 plan, and later they remembered that they could build a cannon first to see the size, and then decide how big the floating plate should be.

In the end, they chose the 15*35 floating plate size, not because they don't know how to make a living, but because the cannon takes up too much space, and if they don't build the ship bigger, the driving equipment inside will not be able to be released.

It took the two of them half a day to double the floats. They each had a hammer and started working from both sides at the same time. The work of making the bow and stern pointed was very difficult for them because there was no triangular float in their drawings, so they had to do secondary processing.

They made a square float and then sawed it in half. The embarrassing thing was that they didn't have a saw, so the plan of the pointed bow and stern was aborted. What they built was still a giant rectangular float.

After a simple lunch, they started moving the wooden wall in the afternoon. Li Mu moved the wall on the first floor, and Qiao Sheng expanded the deck on the second floor to connect it to the wooden wall.

Li Mu had to build a new wooden wall with windows a short distance away. This was where the cannons would be placed. There were fourteen wooden walls with windows on the first floor and a wooden door on the bow. The rest were all ordinary wooden walls.

They also specially reinforced the wooden walls on the first floor with metal. Now their ship looked like a copper wall with iron walls.

The wooden wall downstairs was expanded, and Qiao Sheng's deck upstairs was also laid. The second floor was still a wooden wall with windows. Li Mu was also responsible for the expansion. Qiao Sheng went up to the third floor to lay the third deck.

By the time they had finished building all of this, it was already dark. The reason they were forced to stop the construction was not because it was late at night or because they were hungry, but because they found that the iron products they had thought were in large quantities were almost gone after all this consumption.

It wasn't because they didn't have enough in stock, but because the cannons consumed too much. The supplies for the fourteen cannons really exceeded their budget, not to mention the supplies for the later ammunition. It seemed that they would have to go a long way to exchange fish for supplies in the future. It would be too much for them to catch fish manually.

Qiao Sheng had to work so hard that day that he didn't even have the energy to finish his meal. He instructed Li Mu to cook Spanish mackerel dumplings and make a meal.

Even after eating, they couldn't sit idle. Originally, the two wanted to organize the first and second decks, but they were too tired to continue, so they sat on the chairs and fished for

a while. The first deck was completely sealed, and the terrace on the second deck was expanded. Now they fish by the terrace on the second deck. The difference is not big, but when you catch a fish, you have to pull it up a little harder.

The little turtle is placed in the first deck of the cabin. They deliberately opened the wooden door of the cabin so that the big sea turtle outside can see their baby.

Before going to bed, Li Mu changed the little turtle's wound dressing and checked the wound. The big turtle, who had been traveling with the boat for several days, said that it was almost healed. The rest was up to the little turtle to heal on its own. They couldn't help much. They would change the dressing again tomorrow at noon, and then apply a skin film. Then they could leave.

The next morning, they both got up late inevitably. It was because they had done too much physical work the day before. In fact, they didn't wake up naturally, but were woken up by the sound of knocking on the wooden window. It sounded

like knocking on the door. They didn't even have time to put on their clothes. They put on their pajamas and waistcoats and ran to the second-floor deck to check where the sound came from.

The situation in front of them made them laugh and cry. There were not only several sea turtles on the bow, but also several familiar killer whales, especially the big fool, which was too obvious.

It was covered with seafood, and it was obvious that it was here to give a thank-you gift. Before, they had an open space on the bow, and these guys just threw it up, but this time it was no longer possible, the first floor was blocked, and they could only float in the sea and "knock on the door."

It was really knocking on the door. When Qiao Sheng went to see, he saw the sea turtle stretching its head and knocking on the wooden wall again and again, and the sound it made was exactly the same as knocking on the door.

Li Mu was asked to bring a refrigerator to the bow of the first floor to meet them. He really filled two refrigerators.

There were too many species. There were two four-meter whales and two king squids. The fish they brought were much larger than what Qiao Sheng and his team caught themselves. There were even various shellfish. Before leaving, Li Mu stopped them again. He checked the killer whales first. Sure enough, some of them had wounds. All of them were given medicine and skin films. The other turtles also had rattan pots on their bodies.

They dismantled the wooden wall at the bow, and the two of them cleaned it up together. You say that people come to give gifts, so they can't leave empty-handed, right? They helped in every way they could, and it was really busy until noon, and finally they cleaned up the mess on these guys. The little turtle was also given new medicine and some cod liver oil, and it looked much more lively. Before

leaving, the killer whales performed a series of spinning jumps for Qiao Sheng and his friends. Qiao Sheng and his friends got soaked, and the killer whales received applause and cheers. Both sides were very happy.

After installing the wooden wall, the two of them hurried upstairs to the kitchen, roasted some sweet potatoes and started eating. If they didn't eat something, they would be starving. The cassock cubs, who were used to three meals a day, were also crying with hunger, and they also used roasted sweet potatoes to make up for it.

"This shark meat is really endless. These sea turtles and killer whales are simply the must-have gifts. And there are these manta rays. Are they the lowest existences on the seabed?" Qiao Sheng looked through the things in the refrigerator and couldn't help but scratching his head.

The shark meat from before was not finished yet, so this one was added. The jiashazi couldn't finish it all, not to mention that they were greedy. When Qiao Sheng and his friends ate something fresh, they wanted to try it.

I took out some of the shark meat from before and sent it to Xia Beibei, Fang Yueyi, and Pei Hong. Xia Beibei also told them how to make fish paste soup for Baba.

For lunch, I made shark meat porridge and roasted sweet potatoes for the jiashazi. Qiao Sheng and his friends still had boiled dumplings. After this meal, the Spanish mackerel dumplings in the refrigerator were all eaten up. I have to make some more in the next few days.

While cooking porridge for the cassats, he remembered that the mulberry bark that had been cooking on the stove for several days was almost done. This was also a big project.

"It's impossible to finish it. Can we split it up, two to four, four to eight, and then assign some people to do this and some to do that, and we don't have to worry about not having enough people." After eating, Qiao Sheng took his fishing rod and sat on a chair by the terrace to start working.

After washing the dishes, Li Mu took out the pot of mulberry bark that had been boiled for days and nights. He first cut it into small pieces with scissors, and then took lime and water to wash the mulberry bark repeatedly.

Next, he separated the fibers. This job was very troublesome. He had to pick them out one by one. After a while, his cervical spine couldn't stand it. Fearing that the mulberry bark would deteriorate, Li Mu put them in the refrigerator. He only did this a little bit a day and was determined not to make things difficult for himself.

"Let's just make one and see if we can get any rewards. If we make too many of these things, we will be useless." Qiao Sheng also tried to separate them for a while. His eyes and hands were tired.

The two of them were fishing all afternoon. Li Mu also became more targeted when placing orders. He only traded iron products and large quantities of iron quality.

At one point, even Xia Beibei came over to ask if something had gone wrong, why wasn't there enough iron products, she still had a lot, could she take some out first to support.

Qiao Sheng told her that she didn't need it for now, she could just exchange it slowly, and reminded her that building a big ship in the future would definitely require a lot of iron products, so she should save more if she had the chance.

Xia Beibei now listened to her sister Qiao, no problem, after the chat she lifted the sieve to collect supplies.

The world channel also sparked a discussion, everyone thought that player No. 18 was plotting something, otherwise why would he exchange everything before, but now only wanted iron products.

Now the other players were in a dilemma, should they keep the iron products for themselves in case of emergency, or take them out to exchange for food first.

It was player 666 who gave the hint. They must solve the problem of food and nutrition first. When changing fish, they only used a small part of the iron products. They still had the big ones in their hands, so they didn't need to worry about something that hadn't even appeared yet.

However, this time the order for a single material has also developed into a national material collection activity, and all players are actively collecting materials.

Even Fang Yueyi sent an email saying that Pei Hong has organized a special collection team. When they encounter an island, the strong and healthy ones go to the island to collect materials, and the old, weak, women and children stay on the boat to collect materials.

After gathering in the evening, they will be combined together and distributed according to the boat. When they encounter an island floating on the sea, he will also supervise the team members to actively collect materials. The main point is that no one is idle and the whole team is mobilized.
