Chapter 727: 389 neither loss nor gain in trading

After dinner, Fang Yuxin went into detail about everything she had obtained that day. Moreover, she deliberately brought out a lot of fish, shrimp, and crabs, claiming she had caught them together with Bai Ye in the forest. While speaking, she deliberately glared at Bai Ye with a warning look to make sure he wouldn’t deny it.

Bai Ye, of course, understood clearly that although they had encountered a small river in the forest that indeed contained fish, neither of them had actually caught any. The fish, shrimp, and crabs that Fang Yuxin had brought out most certainly hadn’t been scooped up from that little box but were likely from her mysterious space.

He glanced at them, noting that the fish, shrimp, and crabs were all very fresh, and were even jumping around lively when taken out. He began to speculate that inside Fang Yuxin’s mysterious space, there might be something like a fishpond. However, since Fang Yuxin didn’t want to reveal it, he naturally wouldn’t blurt it out, not even to his own parents.

After all, this was Fang Yuxin’s secret.

Fang Yuxin had brought out these fish, shrimp, and crabs primarily to offer a change of taste for her family while also sharing some with others. However, upon seeing them, Shui Rou suddenly said, "Wow! You’ve caught so many? How can we eat them all? Why not set up a fishpond to raise them?"

On hearing this, everyone else suddenly thought it was a good idea. With so many fish, shrimp, and crabs, even if they were distributed, they would be gone after one meal. But if they were cultivated, maybe more people could enjoy them!

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuxin started pondering that if she could get the aquaculture business going, perhaps she could raise more creatures in the future. After all, her space contained quite a few animals; if she could find a way to bring these animals out, they could be gradually raised at the base.

However, though they had ideas, actually carrying them out wasn’t something that could be done in a day or two; given that they had only a few animals on hand, developing to scale would take time!

Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang were both men of action, and the very next morning, they started a fish farm in the name of the Hope Battle Group. With superpower users involved, whether it was fishponds or standardized livestock farms, everything was completed within a day; the only thing left was to find creatures to raise.

This was the tricky part, as starting with a large number of animals would definitely arouse suspicion, so it had to be done gradually. Fortunately, the fish, shrimp, and crab situation was relatively smooth, as they could claim they were fished up from the river. After all, the fish farm was operated by their own people, and outsiders couldn’t see exactly what was going on.

Luckily, the factory, hospital, school, and research institute were all progressing smoothly; the equipment had arrived yesterday and, once installed, had already started working. The only problem was that the electricity consumption was quite high, and if this continued, alternative ways to generate electricity would have to be considered.

In summary, although they now had a base, there was still a lot to do to develop it.

After planting those mutated pine trees around the Protection Wall, Fang Yuxin had essentially added an extra layer of protection to the base. At first, everyone was apprehensive about the towering mutant pine trees, which reached a hundred meters in height, worrying about being attacked, until they later discovered that the mutant pine trees wouldn’t attack them, which allowed them to breathe easier.

The Wood Element Superpower Users in the base looked at these mutated pine trees with envy. They had already become accustomed to the role of Healers, so the Skills they had manifested were mostly related to healing and growth promotion. Everyone had subconsciously assumed that the abilities of the Wood Element revolved solely around healing and stimulating plant growth, until Fang Yuxin appeared and completely shattered this fixed mindset.

Upon witnessing or hearing about Fang Yuxin’s methods, everyone naturally envied her and hoped to have a mutant plant of their own. However, having become accustomed to lacking combat abilities, the idea of them going out to look for Mutant Plants was tantamount to courting death, so even though they were extremely envious, they dared not leave the base.

That was until they saw those mutated pine trees suddenly appear outside the Protection Wall, and a strong desire instantly surged within them! The outside of the base was too far, and they dared not venture out to search for Mutant Plants, but these mutated pine trees were right under their noses! How could they settle for not trying?

However, they were somewhat wary of Fang Yuxin’s abilities and status and refrained from using sneaky methods. They had wanted to approach Fang Yuxin directly but were worried about angering her. So after much deliberation, they turned to Liu Zhenglin, hoping he could help inquire.
