Chapter 152
Li Mu put all the fish that can't be eaten raw, and two salmon, in the refrigerator, and posted the rest to the trading system. Qiao Sheng was worried as he saw more and more fish that can't be eaten raw in the refrigerator. If things continue like this, the refrigerator will only be able to hold fish.
"You said we should cook them and place an order? Otherwise, these fish can't be consumed at all." Qiao Sheng stood aside and thought for a long time, and felt that this was the simplest way to do it.
"It's not impossible. Cook a few and calculate the charcoal consumption, and see if the exchange is calculated. If it's suitable, we'll do it, but isn't it tiring to cook them all?" Li Mu thought more. If it was him, he would definitely make whatever he could, but he couldn't cook, so it was embarrassing.
Qiao Sheng smiled and said that it was not tiring, just do it simply, and make two kinds, one is grilled fish, put it on a simple grill, it will be done in a few minutes, and you can also use an iron pot to cook fish soup, one fish can make several bowls of soup.
After saying this, this job can be done, and the two of them are busy. Li Mu took a basin of fish and removed the internal organs first, but he couldn't be too foolish, and the fish that was not removed from the internal organs would not taste good when grilled.
Qiao Sheng made what they were going to eat in the evening first, and put it in the space ring to store it, otherwise he might have to make a meal together again when he got busy later.
Having not cooked properly for several days, Qiao Sheng prepared to stir-fry a few more dishes. She did not make fish soup, but pork ribs soup. The leftovers could be used to make wontons tomorrow morning.
After she had finished frying all the dishes and stewed the brown rice, she put them all into the space ring. A pot of pork ribs and kelp soup was cooking on the stove. Li Mu then brought up a large wooden basin of fish.
The fish could not be grilled directly, as the whole fish was too big. Since it was going to be cooked, it had to be cooked properly. Li Mu took the chopping board and cut each large fish into four sections, splitting the fish back in half and cutting a knife in the middle. This piece could be eaten by a person with a small appetite for a day, or a person with a large appetite for a meal.
Qiao Sheng had a little trouble cooking fish soup. She cut a fish into dozens of pieces, fried it first, and then put it in the pot and boiled it. When she served it in bowls, she added some pepper.
The orders for grilled fish and fish soup were really sold out. Then the two of them found an embarrassing problem. There were not enough bowls. The grilled fish was wrapped in large banana leaves. If there were not enough banana leaves, they could exchange them. A piece of wood or a piece of plastic could be exchanged for ten banana leaves.
But you can't use leaves to serve soup. You can only use bowls. They used coconut bowls for the first pot, and Li Mujin hurriedly made wooden bowls with wooden boards for the second pot. One wooden board can make two wooden bowls. The damp wooden board can't be used as fuel, but the wooden bowls made are dry and refreshing.
There were a lot of wooden boards at home, so they didn't mind making wooden bowls. This time, Li Mu grilled nearly a hundred fish, and posted 400 orders on the system. Qiao Sheng was slower at cooking fish soup, so he cooked eight pots in the afternoon. Each pot could hold about 12 fish, and there were also nearly a hundred orders.
When Li Mu posted orders, the limited materials were wooden boards, banana leaves, iron products, and coal, with a total of nearly 500 orders. They were posted as soon as they were made, and they were sold out quickly.
At this time, Qiao Sheng habitually opened the world channel, and sure enough, everyone was discussing this matter. Most players were grateful for the existence of player No. 18.
Some players also said that in the online games they played before, No. 18 was the seedling of the biggest businessman on each server. He always appeared when they had an urgent need, and even if he sold it at a high price, people were willing to buy it.
Of course, there will be some black fish, but as soon as they appear, they will be suppressed by other players. The current situation is different from before. In the past, they still had other options. If they can't fight, they can spend more time fishing.
Now the fish you catch can't be guaranteed to be eaten raw. If you are unlucky, maybe all the fish you catch can't be eaten raw, and there is no fuel to start a fire. This makes everyone go back to the pre-liberation era. Facing the ocean with unlimited food, they have become helpless.
The appearance of player No. 18 saved everyone, but their shipments were still too small. Someone in the world channel counted and found that they placed 500 orders in the afternoon. It was obvious that there were more than 500 players in the game. Many people were still begging for more orders in the world channel. They were almost starving if they didn't get any. The two who
were busy for a while were now showing off their steamed buns to the four dishes and one soup. Even the monks got the sparerib soup and stir-fried pork. They didn't have steamed buns, but they had roasted sweet potatoes, which tasted sweet and they were very satisfied.
After eating and drinking, the two of them couldn't sit idle. When Li Mu went to wash the dishes, Qiao Sheng went to the third deck to harvest crops. After they were done, they went to the first deck to fish. It was impossible to fish outside. The rain didn't stop all day, and there were thunders from time to time.
At the beginning, the sound of thunder scared the youngest Xinxin enough. After a day of desensitization, it seemed to be used to it. Unless the sound was too loud, it would shiver. Otherwise, it didn't affect eating and drinking at all. Now
you have to sort the fish when fishing. There are two large wooden barrels in front of you, one for raw fish and one for fish that can't be eaten raw. The one that can't be eaten raw is always full.
The two stopped fishing, cleaned the fish, put them in a wooden basin, put them in the refrigerator, and then continued fishing. They had to stop fishing to fill a bucket of fish that could be eaten raw.
They worked until late at night. They were busy all day. After washing up, they fell asleep as soon as they touched the pillow. They slept very well and slept until dawn.
When they got up and left the cabin, they found that the rain showed no sign of stopping. There were thunderstorms from time to time, which made them a little nervous. After all, there was no lightning protection device on their boat. If they were really hit, it would be very dangerous.
After breakfast, the tasks of grilling fish and cooking fish soup were handed over to Qiao Sheng. Li Mu entered the cabin and began to study the production of lightning rods in front of the locker. Unexpectedly, Qiao Sheng called him before he made the lightning rod.
The first thing was to cook the grilled fish and fish soup. Secondly, Xia Beibei brought them the lightning rod. The girl was full and had nothing to do, so she started to collect supplies. She opened a bottle and took out a lightning rod. She made one for herself, sent one to Lin Haiyang, and sent one to Qiao Sheng.
Li Mu completely transformed from a scientific researcher to a grilled fish master Li again. Together with the chef Qiao, they cooked fish in various ways in exchange for supplies.
With the lightning rod, there is nothing to worry about. The days are leisurely again. However, what people did not expect is that the spring rain has not stopped for a long time.
A player in the world channel said that his friend's boat was hit by lightning. Fortunately, he did not die. When he was awake, he floated on the sea and did not sink to the bottom, but all his belongings were gone. Many friends scraped together and got a floating board to start from scratch.
There are also those who are unlucky. One player said that he saw a boat not far from his boat being hit by lightning. At that time, the boat was black. After the boat disintegrated, he rowed the boat over to save people. Who knew that he did not see any trace of the player after circling around for a long time. If there were no charred wooden boards floating on the sea, he would have thought that he was dazzled.
As the bad news kept coming, Qiao Sheng simply turned off the world channel. It was simply too heavy.
Fang Yueyi also sent an email saying that a ship in their fleet was also hit. Fortunately, the crew members on other ships reacted quickly and rescued the people. The crew members hit by lightning are now charred and are lying on Pei Hong's boat to recuperate. She wanted to get some medicine. Xu Ziyan, that idiot, injured his leg while saving people. It was really annoying. He always put himself in danger.
Qiao Sheng didn't search, but took three bottles of Baibaodan to send to Fang Yueyi. The crew members of Pei Hong's fleet passed by the island last time and they were all good people. If they could help, they would help.
When taking the medicine, I took inventory. There were not many Baibaodan in stock. This wave of crops were harvested and all were planted with Panax notoginseng. I made more Baibaodan as a reserve. This thing is very useful.
"This intermediate medicine is so powerful, what is the advanced medicine like? Will it fill you up with blood or bring you back to life?" Qiao Sheng asked while stirring the soup pot.
Li Mu was cutting banana leaves to make it easier to pack the grilled fish that was about to be taken out of the oven. Hearing her question, he thought for a while and said, "It's possible that I can't think of it. The key is whether we have the luck to get the advanced stuff."
This sentence made the two of them silent. Let's take care of the things in front of us first. The most important thing is to exchange more supplies. The third and fourth floors are still semi-finished products and have not been completed. There are not many shells at home. If there is any problem, we can't just throw artillery at the enemy.
It was actually quite nice to live such a leisurely life. She worked in the kitchen during the day and went fishing at night to prepare food for the next day. In such a fulfilling life, the system suddenly reported that they had encountered an island. Qiao Sheng was a little unresponsive.
This time, the system didn't even need her to ask, and told her everything she usually asked. There were no players in the nearby waters, and two ships had docked on the island. A total of seven players were collecting on the island.
They were carrying the oil sent by Mr. Wang on this ship. The system still reported the time at normal ship speed, suggesting that they would arrive in the afternoon, but in fact they had already docked before noon.
After stopping the boat and dropping anchor, Qiao Sheng and Li Mu put the last batch of food on the trading system and even said on the world channel that since people have arrived on the island, don't wait any longer in the afternoon. There probably won't be time to continue placing orders.
