Giant Fish Survival: I Can Hear the Giant Fish's Heart

[You said when you sold mirror-skin barracuda meat that it could increase constitution and speed a little, right?]

As soon as I traded the Fishbone Blade to Chen Xin, Chen Xin sent me a message asking about it.

Yes, do you want it?

"Yes, what's the price?"

Two algae-based oxygenation tanks.

Mr. Zhou isn't going to let anyone take advantage of him at all?

[Miss Chen hasn't gotten a good deal yet? Five points of strength from the Golden Silk Fruit, and you took a bunch of stuff from me; two points of attribute from the Mirror Skin Barracuda Meat, and I want two algae-generating tanks. What good deal did I get?]

[Can strength be the same as other attributes? Never mind, I don't need those two algae-generating tanks. Just give me a portion of the mirror-skin barracuda meat.]

Zhou Wen happily removed a portion of mirror-skinned barracuda meat from the trading channel and traded it to Chen Xin. It's always good to avoid taking away as many food items as possible from the Leviathan Transformation.

After resting for the time it takes to fill two supply crates, Zhou Wen's physical strength has almost recovered. He still has a hundred push-ups to do today, and he can't just give up on the plan he made yesterday.

So, Zhou Wen began to complete his plan of doing one hundred push-ups every day.

After finishing a hundred push-ups, it was almost time for the third supply crate of the day. Zhou Wen glanced at the anchor worm corpses piled in the corner.

Since the anchor worm's corpse was inedible and took up a lot of space, Zhou Wen used a fishbone knife to cut it into small pieces and then threw it into the digestion tank to dispose of it.

After some time, the third supply box of the day arrived. The water was calm, and no creatures entered. After the tide receded, Zhou Wen successfully opened the supply box.

[Ding! Storage locker blueprint obtained.]

"Huh?" Zhou Wen was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

"This is like a godsend! I was just worried about what to do with the supplies I got from the trade, and they actually gave me a storage locker blueprint."

Zhou Wen used the storage cabinet blueprints with a smile, and then checked the materials needed to make it.

[Storage cabinet blueprint: Requires 20 wood.]

"We don't need many materials, let's make it!"

Zhou Wen tapped the crafting button on the blueprint interface, and 20 pieces of wood flew out of the supply box, turning into blue light and forming a wooden cabinet two meters high and one meter wide in the air.

According to the blueprints, the locker has 100 compartments, each of which can hold 100 units of supplies. In other words, one locker can store 10,000 units of basic supplies.

Although Zhou Wen currently has a lot of basic materials, there are only a little over three thousand sets of basic materials in total, which is less than half the space of the storage cabinet. Most importantly, it takes up little space, requiring only one square meter to store all the materials.

After setting up the storage cabinet, Zhou Wen immediately put all 900 stones piled in the corner into it, and then transferred all the supplies stored in the supply box into the storage cabinet.

Half an hour later, all the items in the 22 supply crates were transferred. Then, these empty supply crates were no longer needed. Ten supply crates were put up for sale in the trading channel, and the remaining 12 supply crates were simply thrown into the waste disposal pool.

Zhou Wen couldn't put 22 supply boxes up for sale at once, because that would be telling everyone that he had been getting three supply boxes every day since day one, which would obviously expose his true abilities.

Of course, Zhou Wen could say that he arranged the transaction with someone else, but once the seed of suspicion is planted, it will definitely attract extra attention from some people, which is definitely not a good thing.

Human nature is greedy. Although there is no possibility of encounters between the survivors now, what about in the future? It is not scarcity that is a concern, but inequality. As long as there is conflict in the future, Zhou Wen will definitely be the target of everyone's attacks.

Zhou Wen didn't ask for a high price for the 10 supply boxes, since everyone has them, and most people don't have enough basic materials and their own supplies aren't even full, so there's no need to buy extra supply boxes.

Therefore, Zhou Wen priced each supply box at 10 basic materials. People who trade supply boxes definitely have a lot of basic materials, so 10 basic materials is very cheap for them.

Moreover, Zhou Wen had another purpose in selling the supply boxes: to see who was developing faster.

If someone needs a supply box, it means they definitely can't fit all the basic materials in it, indicating that the other party has items for long-term sale, which can be exchanged for basic materials.

After waiting for a short while, someone actually bought the supply crates, and even bought all 10 of them at once.

Zhou Wen glanced at the person's profile picture and found it unfamiliar, as if he had never interacted with him before. So Zhou Wen started browsing the World Trading Channel.

After browsing through the transaction information for a while, Zhou Wen saw the items that this person was trading in the world channel.

[10 basic materials for freshwater filtration transactions.]

"Filtering fresh water?" Upon seeing the message that the other party was selling fresh water, Zhou Wen's eyes widened slightly. This was definitely a lucrative business that would last a long time.

"Why wasn't I the one who got the freshwater filtration method!" Zhou Wen felt a little jealous, but as he read the introduction to freshwater filtration, his jealousy vanished.

[Filtered fresh water: Fresh water obtained by simply filtering urine can be consumed in small amounts.]

"Okay, I thought it was seawater filtration, but it turns out it's urine filtration, and a simple one at that. But thinking about it, it makes sense. Where can you find materials to filter seawater and urine these days?"

Zhou Wen had originally wanted to ask if they sold methods for filtering fresh water, but he has now given up on that idea.

Zhou Wen looked at the person's acquisition information and found that he was indeed buying large quantities of urine.

Zhou Wenmeng realized a hidden problem: most of the survivors in this world actually had a very difficult time.

This place, where water filtered through urine is sold, can trade for basic materials that can't even fit in a supply crate, which shows how many people are short of water.

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me. I'm not doing too well myself." Zhou Wen had just been attacked by two anchor worms today and almost drowned. He was having a hard time, but he was just not worried about food and drink.

"Wait, although I don't drink a lot of this filtered fresh water, I can use it to water my watermelons and sweet potatoes, which will save me from bottled water."

Zhou Wen suddenly realized this, so he immediately traded 100 sets of basic materials for 10 bottles of filtered fresh water.

The leaves of the watermelon and sweet potato plants now fill the entire small planting box. The larger the plants grow, the more fresh water they need, and this filtered fresh water solution solves that problem perfectly.

Zhou Wen poured a bottle of filtered fresh water into each of the two small planting boxes. He didn't put away the remaining eight bottles; he just placed them next to the small planting boxes for easy watering later.

But the main reason is that the bottle for filtering fresh water is a mineral water bottle, and Zhou Wen is afraid that if he puts it in the storage cabinet, he might accidentally drink it as mineral water one day, which would be really...unpleasant.
