Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 128  Fishing (2)

When he remembered that Yao Ran had a solar-powered generator, Huang Qian's eyes lit up, and he said, "Great. Then we can continue fishing again tomorrow."

Shi Xuan glanced at him and poured cold water on his head, "We can fish, but the fish can't be kept for long. Catching more than we can eat just wastes gasoline and our time."

Huang Qian felt a little disappointed when he heard this.

After a moment of silence, Long Yu said, "Let's exchange fish with supplies."

Except for Quan Yuanwei and Sima Yun, everyone else knew that he was talking about Ling Yi and Yuan Rihui. The others had no objections, so they discussed who would transport and exchange the fish with Yuan Rihui.

The fishing machine can last for another two hours, and someone must stay to guard the fish.

Since transporting the fish down the mountain requires physical strength, they agreed to let Yao Ran and Quan Yuanwei continue fishing while Long Yu, Shi Xuan, Huang Qian, and Sima Yun transported the fish and exchanged them.

After making the arrangement, Long Yu and others carried the bags of fish and went down the mountain.

Seeing them leaving, Quan Yuanwei said, "I will drive one boat and use a fishing machine. You can't stand the sound, so you should drive the other boat and keep a distance from me."

"Alright."

The two then drove separate inflatable boats to another location.

While Quan Yuanwei was busy, Yao Ran reached into the water and tried to catch the fish into her space. Unfortunately, she is not skilled enough to catch the lively fish with her water element ability.

A few seconds after Quan Yuanwei turned on the fishing machine, the fish floated up. Yao Ran quickly picked up the fishing net and fished them out of the water. Every time she scooped, she filled the garbage bag half full.

Every time Quan Yuanwei turns on the fishing device, Yao Ran can catch about three hundred fish. Including the fish Quan Yuanwei caught, the two of them could catch more than six hundred fish in total, enough to fill about six or eight bags.

After Quan Yuanwei turned on the fishing machine for the seventh time, the power finally ran out. Back on land, they piled bags of fish under a tree.

Yao Ran saw that Quan Yuanwei was very tired, so she said, "Let's take a rest here first and wait for Long Yu and the others."

Quan Yuanwei nodded and smiled tiredly, "Alright."

After Yao Ran and Quan Yuanwei rested for half an hour, Long Yu and the others came back.

She looked at Long Yu and asked, "How is it?"

Long Yu replied, "They want it, but not many people want fish, so the price is relatively low. Two kilograms of fish can be exchanged for one kilogram of new rice, five packs of compressed biscuits, or two kilograms of broken rice."

"Yuan Rihui said that they can only exchange up to 200 kilograms of new rice and 1,000 kilograms of broken rice at most. As for compressed biscuits, we can exchange up to 10,000 packs. The remaining fish can be exchanged for other supplies."

After listening to Long Yu's explanation, Yao Ran nodded. Everyone knew that scarcity makes things valuable. Since they catch a lot of fish, the price will naturally drop.

Huang Qian looked at the bags of fish under the tree and asked, "What should we do with the remaining fish?"

Yao Ran thought for a while and said, "We will use the fish to exchange for 200 kilograms of new rice, 1,000 kilograms of broken rice, and 10,000 packs of compressed biscuits. The remaining fish will be used in exchange for medicines, canned food, salt, oil, clothes, and fuel."

"If there is still fish left, we can make salted, fried, or smoked fish. Salted, fried, and smoked fish can be preserved for a long time."

After she finished speaking, Long Yu said, "If anyone is in urgent need of food, I can exchange my share of broken rice for canned food, salt, oil, or medicine."

Yao Ran has a lot of food and can grow it herself in her space. She followed Long Yu's example and said, "I am willing to exchange my share of new rice and broken rice for canned food, salt, oil, or medicine."

After hearing this, Quan Yuanwei and Sima Yun's eyes lit up, and they hurriedly said at the same time, "I want to exchange canned food and oil for broken rice."

The two chose broken rice because it was cheaper than new rice. They have to feed their families, so they don't mind eating broken rice as long as it fills their stomachs. Salt and medicine are essential supplies and cannot be exchanged for rice.

After discussing it for a while, Long Yu and the others left with the bags of fish while Yao Ran stayed to guard the remaining bags of fish. She was alone and had nothing to do, so she decided to fish more and fill up her fish pond.

There are many fish in the water. Even if Yao Ran fills up her large fish pond, there will still be many fish left there.

Since Long Yu and the others also took away the inflatable boats, Yao Ran took a fishing boat and a fishing machine out of her space. She drove the fishing boat to the center of the reservoir, put on the earplugs, and turned on the fishing machine. Her fishing machine is more advanced than the one made by Quan Yuanwei. In just a few seconds, many fish were floating on the water.

The fishing boat is equipped with fishing nets attached to a hauler. Yao Ran turns on the hauler, and the machine unfolds the net and throws it into the water. She controlled the machine to catch all the fish and then pulled up the net.

Looking at the fish in the fishing net, Yao Ran guessed that at least 500 kilograms of fish were caught this time.
