Chapter 172 Made a Fortune
It was already completely dark when all the lights on the huge cruise ship were turned on, making it as bright as day.
Meng Shiwan asked, "Where is Jiang Yuan?"
"He was in the wheelhouse learning how to operate a cruise ship from the driver."
They had actually learned these things before, as members of the seed base rescue team.
Driving all kinds of cars and boats is a required course, so that you can make full use of nearby transportation in various situations.
Back then it was just theory; now that it's practical, I still need to familiarize myself with it.
Just then, Jiang Yuan came over carrying two people.
He threw the two men onto the dock. "Sis, everything's ready. We can leave now."
Meng Shiwan got out of the RV. "Let's go and meet up with An Jiewen and the others."
Jiang Yuan piloted the cruise ship, with Lei Zhe and Lu Yu assisting him.
Tao Yarong searched around to see if there were any more people hiding on the cruise ship.
The huge cruise ship slowly sailed away from the coast and headed towards the vast ocean.
Meng Shiwan wasn't interested in the interior of the cruise ship. She returned to her RV, washed up, changed into clean clothes, lay down on the sofa, turned on the monitor, and continued playing her little games.
Hearing the noise, Ta Xue came down from the second floor and nestled down to sleep at Meng Shiwan's feet.
She would occasionally take out ice cream and snacks to eat, and Ta Xue would climb on her and try to snatch them from her.
"Ta Xue, do you know how much you weigh right now?"
Even with Meng Shiwan's strong physique, he could barely support Ta Xue's adorable weight, yet Ta Xue herself had no proper understanding of her current weight.
It snatched the small ice cream cone from Meng Shiwan's hand and ate it with a crunch.
The next morning, at the crack of dawn, everyone on the fishing boat was busy hauling in their nets.
As the fishing net is slowly pulled out of the sea, you can see all kinds of lively sea fish inside, and there are quite a few of them.
Zhou Wen was very happy, "Great, this haul is pretty good too."
Everyone scrambled to pull up the fishing net.
Anjawen walked over and put the fish into his card space.
At that moment, the person in the cockpit rushed out, shouting, "Something's wrong! The radar has detected a very large cruise ship approaching!"
Upon hearing this, everyone panicked.
"Could it be pirates again? The rest of them haven't returned yet. If we encounter pirates again, we'll be in trouble."
"What I fear most is that they come in a cruise ship. If there are too many people and a conflict breaks out, there could be casualties."
"What should we do? What should we do now?"
Pirates are ruthless killers; encountering one is a major problem.
Anjavin stood on the edge, watching a small black dot leap out onto the calm sea.
He cautiously said, "If things look bad later, you guys go and hide in the cabin. Qiu Zhiyi, Ma Jiandong, the three of us will play it by ear."
No matter how many pirates come, the three of them are intermediate-level superhumans and can put up a fight.
As the cruise ship drew closer, they could see clearly that it was a very large and luxurious vessel.
Before the apocalypse, you couldn't even think about getting on a ship without hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Anjavin stared intently at the cruise ship, growing increasingly cautious and preparing for a fight.
Ma Jiandong frowned and looked closely. "Look at the cruise ship, isn't that Tao Yarong's vines waving? Could it be that the others have returned?"
"Really? They've only been gone a day, and they're back already? Did they find the pirates' lair?" Qiu Zhiyi craned his neck to look.
Once the cruise ship was closer, Zhou Wen took out a pair of binoculars to observe the people on the cruise ship's deck.
"It's them. They're back. They went out for a day and brought back a huge cruise ship. Impressive!"
Once they confirmed that the other side was their own people, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and then became excited.
Lulu's mom laughed, "They've always been amazing. The captain can even conjure up a farm out of thin air. What can't they do?"
"Didn't they go and find the pirates' lair? They came back in just one day, so did they fail to find it?"
"If they couldn't find the cruise ship, they must have found it."
Everyone speculated and craned their necks, waiting for the answer.
Once they confirmed that the people on their side were friendly, the fishing boat began to slow down and move closer to the cruise ship.
As they got closer, Qiu Zhiyi shouted at the top of his lungs, asking Tao Yarong across from him, "How's it going? Have you found the pirates' lair yet?"
Tao Yarong laughed, "Found it! We took down Pirate Island, and Wu Ming and the others took over the mess. We made a fortune!"
The people on the fishing boat, waiting for the answer, immediately shouted and cheered excitedly.
They were delighted to hear that the pirate crew had been destroyed.
Tao Yarong continued to call out, "We've caught enough fish. My sister said we should go back to land. Let's go together."
Qiu Zhiyi responded, "Okay, you go ahead, we'll turn around."
Cruise ships and fishing boats are both large vessels, and it's quite troublesome for them to approach each other at sea. It's more convenient to sail back to land together.
Upon hearing Tao Yarong's call, Zhou Wen immediately instructed the driver to follow the cruise ship back to land.
On the return voyage, the fishing boats were not idle either, casting their nets several more times and catching a considerable amount of fish.
Meng Shiwan stayed in the RV on the cruise ship, playing games, watching movies, eating delicious food, and enjoying the snow.
Nothing much happened on the way back, and she seemed quite at ease.
Meng Shiwan moved all the seafood from Anjiewen's card space to the farm's seawater fishpond.
Anjiewen allocated 99 cubic meters of his 100 cubic meter card space to his second-floor space, leaving Anjiewen with the 1 cubic meter space he should have had.
It's better if everyone gets the same amount of these things. We're all team members, so it's not good to give more or less to one person than another.
Various marine creatures such as fish, shrimp, and crabs will gradually adapt to the environment in the fishpond, re-establish the ecological chain, reproduce generation after generation, and continue to thrive.
Putting everything else aside, at least from now on, whenever I want to eat seafood, I'll have something to eat.
This trip to sea was definitely worthwhile.
Back at the fishing village's dock, Meng Shiwan's RV, along with two tow trucks and two vans, drove off the cruise ship.
Zhou Wen and his group of survivors also jumped and skipped off the fishing boat.
They've only been out for a few days, but the condition of these survivors is completely different.
When they set sail, they were all pale and weak from prolonged hunger.
Now standing on the dock again, everyone has a rosy complexion and looks like they are full of energy.
It seems that the various porridges, vegetables, and meats I've eaten these past few days have been quite nourishing.
Meng Shiwan got out of the RV, and the vines spread out, bringing the cruise ship, fishing boat, and several brand-new-looking small fishing boats and speedboats from the dock into the farm and placing them on the surface of the seawater fishpond.
The farm has a 50-acre saltwater fishpond, which is big enough to accommodate boats and such.
The farm has changed quite a bit. The large castle in the middle of the farmland, the cruise ships in the fishpond, and the fishing boats and speedboats of all sizes create a scene of prosperity.
“Let’s go, let’s continue clearing out the zombies in the fishing village.” Meng Shiwan turned and got into the RV.
After circling the sea, the zombies in the fishing village still need to be cleared out.
