Chapter 18 018.Island Fishing Ground
Aurora Village is located on the east corner of Wuguang Island, less than two kilometers away from the coastline.
That is to say, walk 1,500 meters east of Aurora Village and you will be able to walk out of the forest and see the sea. This distance is relatively safe and there are few large wild animals.
At this time, Jialan was bringing Mag and Walli to the coast.
Jialan stood on the shore and looked into the wind, her clothes rustling in the sea breeze.
"Sir, the sea breeze is cold in the morning. Your injury has not recovered yet, so you need to pay attention to your health." Mag couldn't help but advise.
"I am a magician, a little sea breeze is nothing, but you need to rest."
Jialan glanced at Mag, dissatisfied that he had ruined the artistic conception by speaking, then raised her finger and pointed at the sea in front of her, and said:
"What do you think of the sea in front of you?"
"It's quite beautiful," Mag said.
"It's of no use." Walli said.
Walli's unique insights aroused Jialan's interest, and she couldn't help but ask: "How do you see the lack of value? Aren't there a lot of shell crabs on the beach? At least it proves that there are a lot of these things living in this sea area."
Seeing the question raised by the young lord in front of him, Walli smiled and replied: "Judging the value of the sea area cannot be determined by just a few fish, shrimps, crabs and shells on the beach. It must be comprehensively analyzed from at least three aspects."
Hearing Wali's answer, Mag's curiosity was aroused, and she listened patiently to what was going on.
"First of all, the depth of the seabed. As you can see, my lord, the beach extends all the way to the bottom of the sea. There is also an island and reef emerging from the water not far away. This is enough to prove that the sea area in front of us is very shallow and cannot accommodate the survival of large marine fish.
However, the environment of the islands and reefs is very suitable for shrimps and crabs to survive. So many shrimps and crabs on the beach must have been brought from the islands and reefs by the tide."
"It makes sense, but even in shallow seas, many small fish can grow. It doesn't necessarily have to be a big fish to be valuable." Jialan asked in return.
"Your Majesty is right. This involves the other two factors I want to talk about, ocean currents and water temperature. Only a complex and changeable sea environment can breed precious sea elves on the seabed."
At this point, Jialan finally understood that the value Walli mentioned was the sea elves.
The sea elf is a magical existence. It has no fixed form. It can be a starfish, a swimming fish, or a gem. In short, the sea elf has extraordinary abilities. It exists in the sea, but it can
Bring harvest and abundance to the land.
It is said that the Amethyst family has a sea elf.
According to records, there were no sea elves in the world a long time ago. After the continent of Valorans was broken, most of the main body was submerged by the endless sea. Then, at some point, sea elves appeared.
Until now, no scholar has figured out how the sea elves were born.
"Forget it, sea elves are extremely rare. I don't think there are such things in the sea around Sunless Island."
Jialan gave up the unrealistic idea and decided to set up the natural fishing ground on this island and reef close to the beach.
The reason is simple. He needs a stable food source. There are no large fish in shallow seas. The complex island and reef environment is more suitable for small fish to thrive, as well as a variety of shrimps, crabs and shellfish.
Another important point is that the existence of islands and reefs effectively shields undercurrents and wind waves from far away, making it easier to salvage and collect.
These two advantages are enough.
Facing the sea breeze, Jialan opened the inventory, selected [Natural Fishing Ground] and clicked to use it.
Immediately afterwards, the golden light that only Jialan could see landed on the sea surface, just lighting up a 100*100 square area. Then the light disappeared under the sea surface and returned to calm.
It seems like nothing happened, but in fact, the islands and reefs have undergone drastic changes.
"Let's go, the food problem has been solved. Let Mai Duo and the others come to the beach tomorrow to pick up seafood. There are endless seafood in this sea area, and you can come and pick it up every day."
"??"
Mag and Wally on the side stared blankly at the scattered shrimps and crabs on the beach.
If you pick them all up, it will be enough for a dozen people to eat twice. To say that you can't finish them is an exaggeration, let alone that there are so many every day.
"Ahem~ What did you just say..."
Mag suspected that there was something wrong with his ears and wanted to ask again. When he turned around, he found that the lord had already walked away.
"Hey! Wait for me, sir!" Mag quickly stood up and chased after him.
Walli, who stayed where he was, looked at the islands and reefs that surfaced in confusion, looking again and again, but couldn't see anything, so he had to mumble, shake his head and leave.
"I'll come tomorrow to see if there will be endless seafood..."
After finishing the fishing ground, Jialan checked in on the way back to the village. The rewards given by the system today were very ordinary, three basic supply packages, and the clean water included in them can be used for a day or two.
After getting the supply package, he threw it directly to Mai Duo and asked her to deal with the contents inside. Use what can be used and put away what is not needed for the time being. Then, you can exchange it with the cargo ship for needed daily necessities.
After solving the food source, Jialan couldn't wait to return to the village and found Mailun who was clearing trees, and asked him to hurry up and make a single wooden bed.
Jialan didn't want to sleep on a straw mat, otherwise it would be too miserable if she developed waist problems in her old age, and she would have to have children in the future.

one day passed
Mag took Mai Ya Mai He, followed by Mai Dou Vali, and the group of five people came to the beach where they had stood yesterday, and were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them.
"This... so much?!"
Snap! Snap!
Densely packed sea fish are stranded on the beach. At a glance, there are groupers, spiny caltrops, flatfish... all common fish in shallow seas, among which groupers are the most delicious.
In addition to fish, there are just as many shrimps and crabs, but they can crawl. Many shrimps and crabs return to the sea along with the tide.
"Obviously there was only a little bit yesterday!" Mag's eyes widened and he picked up the fish at his feet in disbelief. The sticky fish skin felt to the touch confirmed that what he saw was not an illusion.
"Hehe! The master really didn't lie to us. Fortunately, we made two rattan baskets yesterday and they came in handy!"
Mai Duo didn't think too much, took off his backpack and started picking up fish to put in it.
"Don't be stunned! One basket of fish and one basket of shrimp will feed everyone in the village today!"
Mag quickly accepted the reality, but Walli was still full of doubts and couldn't figure out why this happened. Even because he was distracted, his finger was accidentally caught by the crab claws while catching crabs, and he screamed in pain, causing
There was a burst of laughter.
A group of people quickly filled two backpacks, which together weighed at least a hundred kilograms.
In order to avoid waste, everyone worked hard to throw the many fish on the beach back into the sea. It was unclear whether they would survive, but at least they would not rot and stink on the beach.
On the other side, Jialan, who already knew the result, did not go to the beach to pick up seafood, but stayed in the village to do carpentry work with Mailun.
In the eyes of others, it may seem like he is not doing his job properly, but Jialan himself has an important mission.
