My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 112 Sturdy +3

Chapter 114 Sturdy +3

As expected, Zhou Miao did not see Pei Yunxi the next day.

However, he was busy today. When the workers arrived to start work, he first asked Master Sun to lead the workers to lay out a 10-square-meter area and place the sunken ship there.

Then, they set off for the open sea with the salvage team.

After professional testing, it was determined that salvaging Lu Xingyu's speedboat would be very simple.

Because the ship is relatively intact overall, with only the bow damaged, it can be salvaged directly using a heavy-duty crane.

So they set off in the morning and returned to the fish raft around the time they finished get off work in the evening.

"You disappeared for a day just to do this?" Lu Xingyu stared dumbfounded at the damaged speedboat hanging on the fishing raft, unable to understand why Zhou Miao would waste money like this.

"I'm doing this to increase your chances of becoming a zookeeper. Have you finished writing the 'desert island survival' story you and Xiaoxiao wrote?"

"The speedboat, the turtle, and you are all indispensable in the story, so of course I want to bring this speedboat back."

Zhou Miao suggested writing short stories yesterday, which were prepared in order to bring back the sunken ship.

The zookeeper thing was just something he came up with as an excuse.

In fact, he has successfully received the reward from the reef.

This return, however, gave him a bit of a headache, because the reef felt that even after being hit by the speedboat, it hadn't shattered, only developed a small crack.

Therefore, it considered itself very tough and shared a special ability, "Toughness +3," with Zhou Miao.

If Zhou Miao were to use it himself, his body would become very strong. Even if he were launched into the air by the Great Yun, he could ensure that his limbs would not separate and that he would maintain his complete human form.

Yes, it just maintains human form; whether it can survive is unknown.

But it can indeed increase bone density and improve impact resistance.

The system then kindly reminded users that this attribute is not suitable for being imposed on a living being.

Increased bone density has the advantage of improving resistance to pressure and impact, but the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

It can lead to various problems such as joint wear and tear, metabolic disorders, limited mobility, and nerve compression.

Zhou Miao immediately dismissed the idea of ​​adding this special attribute to himself.

Is the price we pay too high just to ensure the integrity of the Universiade Spaceflight Center?

So he thought of adding attributes to the fishing rafts.

After consulting the system, Zhou Miao learned that the fish rafts, which could originally only withstand strong winds and waves, could now withstand high-intensity typhoon weather after the attributes were added, ensuring the integrity of the overall structure.

Even the floorboards are not easily blown away, but there is no guarantee that the buildings above will be preserved intact.

"No need to think about it," Zhou Miao said as soon as he returned to the fishing raft, adding attributes to it.

Although no typhoons have visited Nanzhen in the past month, it's only a matter of time.

As for the building, Zhou Miao thought of converting shipping containers.

When a super typhoon comes, can't we just send a crane to lift the house to the shore?

Thinking of this, Zhou Miao quickly called over Master Sun: "Master Sun, I suddenly remembered that the small wooden houses that were originally going to be built on the fish rafts, could we use shipping containers instead?"

"I've heard that shipping containers are better able to withstand typhoons, while wooden houses are easily blown off their roofs."

To everyone's surprise, Master Sun shook his head after hearing this: "Containers are not necessarily better than wooden houses. It's not like no one has ever used them before."

"It's not moisture-proof, and the cost is high. All things considered, it's not as good as a wooden house."

"You're running fishing rafts, so you're probably planning to turn them into bed and breakfasts in the future, right? Wooden cabins are moisture-proof and more comfortable to stay in."

"When a typhoon comes, you just need to reinforce the area; it usually won't be blown away."

"If it can be blown away, then your entire fish raft can be destroyed. The cultural and tourism center here will also organize typhoon relief efforts; they won't just ignore it."

"Secondly, the cost is low, and even if there are some problems, maintenance and repair are simple."

"Personally, I think log cabins are better; shipping containers are for raising livestock."

Zhou Miao nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, I'll think about it first. Anyway, we've only just started laying the flooring, so we have at least a few days to consider it."

The shipping container was a sudden idea he came up with after acquiring the sturdiness attribute. Because he wasn't sure about its quality, he asked Master Sun for advice.

However, when he heard that log cabins were cheaper, he was inclined to build them first.

After investing a million, Zhou Miao is now penniless again. High-investment items really need to be carefully considered.

The main issue is that we're currently investing money, so there's really no need to make the costs too high.

Master Sun had already seen through Zhou Miao's thoughts and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Building log cabins is not only low-cost, but also has advantages for them.

The longer the construction period, the more money you earn; secondly, there is the long-term and stable income from subsequent maintenance.

Zhou Miao took the boat to drop off Master Sun and the others at the shore so they could finish get off work, and then went home with Lu Xingyu.

"Ah Miao, how much money did you get for the salvage? I'll transfer it to you."

"Why should I pay for it? I took it upon myself to salvage the boat, so naturally I'll pay for it."

Zhou Miao's main purpose in salvaging the ship was to obtain the reward from the reef, so naturally, Lu Xingyu wouldn't have to pay for it.

Whoever profits pays the price; even if the sturdiness attribute is ultimately added to the fishing raft, Lu Xingyu will still profit indirectly.

But he was unaware of it and had no reason to pay for it.

"No way. If I really become a zookeeper and profit from the story and the shipwreck, then the money has to be yours."

"Alright, let's talk about it after I become a zookeeper."

If Lu Xingyu really profited from this, then Zhou Miao would feel perfectly justified in accepting the money.

"By the way, are we going out to sea tonight?" With the shipwreck incident behind us, Lu Xingyu brought up another matter that concerned him more: catching mantis shrimp.

We were supposed to go last night, but after the "Farewell My Concubine" dinner and some Shaoxing wine, everyone drank a bit too much, so we couldn't go out to sea.

"Okay, we'll set sail tonight. Inform Luo Hao later."

Zhou Miao nodded in agreement, wanting to finish this task as soon as possible so he could go diving at the reservoir to find the treasure.

After dinner, the three of them set sail for the deserted island to catch mantis shrimp.

This time, Zhou Miao did not continue to try to catch mantis shrimp, feeling that it was not very reliable.

So this time he used all the fish traps to catch mantis shrimp.

After finishing his work, there was still some time to spare, so Lu Xingyu took out a fish finder from his toolbox: "Ah Miao, hurry up and find a school of fish, let's continue fishing tonight."

Zhou Miao pointed irritably at his large backpack containing his diving gear: "Do you think fish are like cabbages?! Do you even know why I brought this sports backpack?"

"I thought you were planning to go into the water during the day to take a look, but I didn't expect you to want to go into the water at night."

"The best time to go fishing is at night," Zhou Miao said with a smile, taking out a newly bought harpoon.

This kind of harpoon is not effective against swimming fish, but it is very effective against sleeping fish. It is more convenient to use than a harpoon gun and is not difficult at all.

"Then what am I supposed to do?" Lu Xingyu asked helplessly. "I can't just be left here alone, can I?"

"Go to Ah Hao's boat and go fishing with him. But if you actually find a school of fish, don't enjoy it alone."

"That's obvious, finding the school of fish would leave you behind!"

So Zhou Miao first took Lu Xingyu to Luo Hao's boat, and then sailed to the rocky area of ​​the deserted island.

After he moored the boat, he changed into a diving suit and then carried a large compressed air tank on his back.

He bought this while he was at the diving center to buy a spear.

Actually, he had been using compressed air cylinders before, which is a more professional term, but he just habitually called them oxygen cylinders.
