Avril's words made Li Yuan slightly uneasy.
Although the bamboo raft was unstable and couldn't bear the weight, the bamboo raft wouldn't sink, but the boat would!
But Li Yuan quickly calmed down.
Even though the wooden ship had this flaw, the direction of the evolution of the ship did not change because of it. The ship continued to develop towards large-scale, multi-functional, and high-tech development. Although Li Yuan wasn't a navigation expert, he still had some basic knowledge.
Moreover, the system also provided a solution-rubber bottom and fish skin bottom!
Forget about the rubber bottom of the boat, Li Yuan had a lifeboat now. Firstly, the materials were still lacking. Secondly, this thing was very useful when sailing on the sea. If Little White and Avril fell into the sea, he could also save them. Therefore, he definitely could not break it down.
Then there was another option, which was the fish skin bottom.
[Fish skin bottom (membrane): 1/500 (fish skin) can reduce water resistance and reduce seawater corrosion (can be recycled after upgrading the ship)]
Li Yuan checked the information and suddenly exclaimed," F * ck, they actually want 500 fish skins now? It was 100 before!"
"Oh, right, now that I've grown bigger, I naturally need more fish skin.”
Seeing this astronomical figure, Li Yuan fell into deep thought.
500 fish. Even if he included Avril, he didn't know how long it would take for Little White to catch them with her. Although he had plenty of time, Avril's warning made him feel a little anxious.
This option, give up!
" I can only make fishing nets first…" Li Yuan looked at the clothes he was wearing and felt a little unwilling. He had originally planned to make sails with these clothes, but the system didn't allow him to make them.
"Forget it, solving the urgent problem first is the key!”
After figuring out this series of questions, Li Yuan no longer hesitated." System, make a fishing net first! Don't make the mesh too big, I might not be able to handle something big on the internet…I'll just be able to catch something as big as an acorn fish.”
The clothes on the ship instantly seemed to be pulled out by a thread and quickly disintegrated. Then, the cotton and linen threads that were separated quickly weaved themselves, twisted into a stronger cotton hemp rope, and finally quickly weaved into a fishing net.
" This, this…" Avril was so scared that she retreated backward and hugged Little White tightly. Little White licked Avril's face happily.
No matter what breed of dog it was, it seemed that it always had the hobby of taking advantage of others!
"Captain, is that you?"
"It's me." Li Yuan couldn't explain it too clearly, so he admitted it directly." Avril, see if this net works.”
The fishing net landed in front of Avril. She mustered up her courage and lifted the net to take a look.
This fishing net was about five meters long, and the mesh was about three centimeters long, shaped like a diamond.
"Captain, your craftsmanship is really good. This net can be used, but it's too small. The nets we used to fish were a few thousand meters long. With such a small fishing net, unless you encounter a school of fish, you won't be able to catch many fish.”
"I also want a few thousand meters. The materials are too little.”Li Yuan said," How about this? I'll make two more. They'll be more than ten meters long.”
Since the fishing net could be used, Li Yuan did not hide it anymore. He made the remaining clothes into a fishing net, leaving only the last few materials to make seven cotton ropes.
Avril's eyes were wide open the entire time, her face filled with disbelief.
"Don't just stand there. Can we catch fish now?”
Avril was stunned as she inspected the fishing net. The quality of the fishing net was impeccable. There were three fishing nets in total, with a total length of 15 meters.
" Captain, we can do that, but we'll still need a float…" Avril looked around and immediately shifted her gaze to the plastic bottles." We don't have any materials here, but we can use ropes to tie these plastic bottles to the fishing net to prevent it from sinking. Also, we can tie one end of the fishing net to the boat so that we won't lose the fishing net.”
Yo, Li Yuan looked at Avril in surprise. This girl actually thought of this idea. Not bad.
The system was dead, but Ariel was alive! Avril was an experienced fisherman, so it shouldn't be a problem if she said yes. Besides, the plastic bottles and rope could be reused, so there was no waste!
With a feasible plan, Li Yuan couldn't help but get excited.
"Alright, we'll do as you say. Now, our goal is to catch 500 fish!”
Li Yuan immediately followed Avril's plan and had the system complete the production of this simple fishing net.
Next, it was time to choose a place to cast the net. This was Li Yuan's forte. Observing the fish at the bottom of the boat was something Li Yuan would do every day when he was bored.
"There's a school of fish ahead. Avril, row the boat. I'll control the direction.”
"Yes, Captain!"
The boat moved to the surface of the sea above the school of fish. Li Yuan asked Avril to cast the fishing net. After the fishing net sank a certain distance, it was stabilized at a certain depth due to the buoyancy of the plastic bottle.
After fixing one end of the fishing net to the boat with a rope, all they had to do now was wait.
"Wow, there are really a lot of fish. Captain is really amazing. Xiao Bai, come and take a look." Avril lay by the side of the boat, watching the fish swimming in the clear water. Their net was nearby, waiting for the fish to enter.
After playing for a while, Avril turned to look at the bow." Captain, we'll be able to reel in the net in an hour or two. Can I sleep for a while?" I'm a little tired."
"En, you haven't slept for a few days, right?”
……
Two days later.
Under the blue sky, the white clouds were far away. On the calm sea, a woman stood up on a narrow wooden boat. She waved her arm and skillfully threw out the fishing net in her hand, causing a splash. Under the scorching sun, it sparkled.
After casting the net, the woman took off her coat and smiled at the white Labrador beside her before jumping into the sea together.
Not long after, Avril and Little White caught two fish.
"Aiya, Xiao Bai, you're so powerful too!”Avril helped Little White throw the fish into the belly of the boat. She pressed Little White's head against her chest and caressed its head randomly.
"Again, let's see who's faster this time!"
All of this did not escape Li Yuan's eyes." Little White…"
"Sigh, you took off your clothes in front of me. Damn it, I'm not even as good as a Labrador! Why didn't you bring me along to play…"
Li Yuan didn't have the chance to catch any more fish, but with the fishing net and the help of Avril and Little White, they had already caught more than 300 fish!
It had to be said that in the Azure Era, without humans polluting the environment, even the school of fish had increased.
According to this progress, 500 fish were just around the corner.
In addition, after adding another crew member, Li Yuan also increased his food reserves. He made more than ten pieces of dried acorns and stored 30 to 40 bone nails.
The performance of the seawater purification equipment was better than Li Yuan had expected. Avril would often check the equipment and replenish the seawater in time to make the purification equipment work at all times. At present, it seemed that this small broken house could provide drinking water for two people without a problem.
"Yes, fishing boats, women and dogs. These days are quite comfortable.”Li Yuan floated leisurely on the surface of the sea." No, I should kick Little White away…"
After another two days, the goal of 500 fish had been achieved. Li Yuan could not wait for the system to make the bottom of the fish skin for him.
When Li Yuan's entire lower body was wrapped in a layer of processed fish skin, he felt very comfortable.
"Awesome! I feel like my lower body has become slippery! Avril, Little White, touch me, is it slippery down there? It's super slippery!"
"Captain, you…you're so bad!" Avril blushed and looked at the bow shyly.
Li Yuan almost spat out a mouthful of seawater. He really didn't drive!
Whatever, they had finally settled the bottom of the ship. This way, they could move on to their next target.
"Avril, Little White, stop playing around. The ship is safe now. We can't forget about our home.”
"Yes, Captain!" After a few days of rest and adjustment, Avril was much more energetic than before, and she wasn't as depressed as before.
Little White sat up straight and barked excitedly.”
"En, now, let's go!" Li Yuan ordered in a loud voice.
