Chapter 9: 9. Fish Skin Boat Bottom

Avril's words made Raine slightly uneasy.

The bamboo raft was unstable and couldn't support the weight, but it wouldn't sink, but the boat would!

But soon Raine calmed down.

The evolution of wooden boats, which were becoming larger, more versatile, and more high-tech. Although Raine was not an expert sailor, he had a basic understanding

And the system also offered a solution - a rubber bottom and a fish skin bottom!

Forget the rubber bottom, Raine now has a lifebuoy. For one thing, it is still a lot short of materials. For another, it is still very useful when sailing at sea, in case White and Avril fall overboard and he can rescue them, so it should be disintegrated.

So there is another option, the fish skin bottom.

[Fish skin bottom (membrane): 1/500 (fish skin) reduces water resistance and reduces seawater corrosion (can be recycled for use after upgrading the ship)].

Raine checked the information and suddenly exclaimed, "Damn, is it actually costs 500 fish skins now? Before it was 100!"

"Oh, I have become bigger now, so naturally the need for fish skins has also become more."

Seeing this astronomical figure, Raine fell into deep thought.

With 500 fish, even with Avril, there was no telling how long it would take for White to catch them with her. Although he had plenty of time, Avril's warning gave him some sense of urgency.

That option, forget!

"Just have to make the fishing nets first ......" Raine looked at the ones he had put on, a little reluctantly, they were clothes he had intended to make sails for, but the system wouldn't make them for him again.

"Well, it is crucial to solving the pressing problems first!"

After understanding this series of problems, Raine no longer hesitated, "System, first make a fishing net! Don't make the net too big, I might not be able to catch a big thing in the net ...... just as big as a head fish."

Those clothes on the boat instantly seemed to be pulled out of a thread pulling, quickly disintegrated, and then the cotton and linen threads that were separated out quickly compiled themselves, twisted into a more sturdy cotton and linen rope, and finally were quickly compiled into a fishing net.

"This, what ......" Avril backed away in a frightened heap, clinging to White, who licked Avril's face in delight.

No matter what breed of dog, there always seems to be a penchant for taking advantage of opportunities!

"Captain, is that you?"

"It's me." Raine couldn't explain too clearly and just admitted it, "Avril, see if this net will work."

The net landed in front of Avril, who put on a brave face and lifted it to look at it.

The net was about five meters long and the holes were roughly three centimeters on a side and diamond-shaped.

"Captain, you're so good at what you do, it's so sturdy! This net works, but it's just too small, the nets we used to use for fishing were several kilometers. With a net this small, you won't catch much fish unless you run into a school of them."

"I want a few kilometers too, the material is so less." Raine said, "Okay, I'll make two more, and put them together."

Since the nets were usable, Raine didn't hold back and made all the rest of the clothes into nets, leaving only the last few materials to make seven pieces of cotton and linen rope.

The whole time Avril stared with wide eyes and a look of disbelief.

"Stop standing around and see if we can catch fish now."

Avril froze and checked the nets, the quality of the nets was naturally nothing to write home about, there were three nets in total and the total field was 15 meters.

"Captain, yes we can, but we still need buoys ......" Avril looked around and immediately dropped his eyes on the plastic bottles, "We don't have much material on our side right now, but we can use a rope to attach these plastic bottles to the nets to keep them from sinking into the sea, and we can tie one end of the net to the boat so we don't lose the net."

Yo, Raine looked at Avril in amazement. This girl had actually thought of this, not bad.

The system is dead, but Avril is alive! Avril is an old fisherman, she says it should work no problem, and the plastic bottles and rope can be reused, there is no waste!

With a workable plan, Raine couldn't help but get excited.

"OK, let's do as you say, now, our goal is to catch 500 fish!"

Raine immediately followed Avril's vision and had the system complete the creation of this simple fishing net.

The next step was to choose the place to drop the net, which was Raine's forte, watching the fish under the boat, something Raine did every day when he was bored.

"There's a school of fish ahead, Avril, row the boat and I'll control the direction."

"Aye, Captain!"

The boat moved to the surface above the school of fish and Raine asked Avril to cast the nets down before they sank a certain distance and were stabilized at a certain depth due to the buoyancy of the plastic bottles.

After securing the end of the net to the hull with a rope, all the group had to do now was wait.

"Wow, there really are a lot of fish. The captain is amazing. White, come and see." Avril leaned over the side of the boat and watched the fish swimming under the clear water, their nets were nearby, just waiting for the fish to come into the net.

After playing for a while, Avril turned his head to the bow, "Captain, we'll wait an hour or two before we can collect the net. That, can I get some sleep? I'm a bit tired."

"Eh, you haven't slept for a few days I guess, rest first."

......

Two days later.

Under the azure sky with white clouds, a woman stood up on a narrow wooden boat in the calm sea, and with a wave of her arm, she skillfully threw the fishing net in her hand with great force, stirring up a splash of water that sparkled in the hot sun.

After casting the net, the woman takes off her coat, smiles at the white Labrador beside her, and jumps into the water together.

Not long after, Avril and White caught two fish up.

"Gee, White, you're good at that too!" Avril helped White throw the fish into the belly of the boat and held White's head against his chest, stroking it carelessly.

"Again, let's see who's faster this time!"

None of this escaped Raine's eyes, "This White guy ......"

"Hey, just in front of me, taking her clothes off again. Fuck, I've lived worse than a Labrador! Why don't you take me for a ride ......"

Raine didn't get to catch any fish, but with the harvest from the nets and the help of Avril and White, they've caught over 300 fish in that time!

I have to say, in the Azure Era, without humans polluting the environment, even the fish population has become more abundant.

At this rate, 500 fish are just around the corner.

With the addition of a crew member, Raine has also increased his food reserves. He has made a dozen pieces of dried fish and has also stocked up on 30 or 40 fishbone spikes to keep as a backup.

The seawater purification unit was performing better than Raine had expected, Avril would check the unit from time to time and replenish it with seawater to keep the purification unit working all the time. For the time being the little ramshackle house would have no problem providing drinking water for two.

"Eh, fishing boats, women and dogs, it's quite a comfortable life." Raine floated leisurely on the surface, "Nope, should have kicked White out ......"

After two more days, the goal of 500 fish had been reached and Raine couldn't wait to have the system make him a fish skin boat bottom.

Once Raine's entire lower body was wrapped in a layer of treated fish skin, his entire body was soothed.

"Yes! Avril, White, feel me down there! It's super slippery!"

"Captain, you ...... are so bad!" Avril blushed and looked shyly towards the bow of the boat.

Raine almost spurted out a mouthful of seawater, He really has no other sense!

Whatever, it was finally done with the bottom of the boat so they could head to their next target.

"Avril, White, stop playing around. The hull is secure. We can't have fun. Now we head for the deserted island!"

"Aye, Captain!" After the last few days of rest and adjustment, Avril was much more refreshed than before, and less depressed.

White sat upright and let out a couple of "woof woof!"

"Yes, now, let's go!" Raine commanded in a full voice.
