After the New Year, the temperature dropped sharply to minus 15 degrees Celsius, and heavy fog rose from the sea again.
The waves are visiting more and more frequently, and the sea is so rough that even looking at it from a distance on the island makes my scalp numb.
Ye Fu had to admire the strength of the wooden house. Every time strong winds and waves came, the wooden house swayed from side to side, as if it would be blown away or fall apart at any time, but it survived every time.
Except for picking up fish and shrimp every day and dragging up the iron cages and fishing nets, the two of them don't go out much anymore.
Ye Fu continued to make clothes and shoes in the wooden house, fill the space with cooked food, steam buns, boil poison, and occasionally apply a facial mask to maintain his face.
Looking at this face that stayed at the age of nineteen, Ye Fu seemed to understand why the ancients pursued immortality.
After all, she is twenty-five this year and will be twenty-six in October.
Twenty-six years old is still young, but compared with nineteen years old, he is young in two dimensions.
In the morning, Ye Fu picked up more than ten jellyfish in the yard. Jellyfish are poisonous. Ye Fu put them in a separate basin. They might be able to use them when making poison later.
During this time, Ye Fu finally saw the diversity of marine life. Most of the marine life looked very strange, or in other words, particularly ugly and disgusting.
It is said that the reason why animals in the deep sea are ugly is because they do not need to see the light, so they can grow as they please.
This statement is interesting.
Ye Fu kept all the strange and unfamiliar creatures to refine the medicine.
Ye Fu took out all the mushrooms dug in the safe area and fried the meat slices. Fortunately, the previous plastic lunch boxes were not thrown away. They could be recycled after being washed.
Ye Fu didn't buy many lunch boxes and only wholesaled tens of thousands of them.
She also made pumpkins into various sweets. Jiang Run liked to eat them, so Ye Fu made a lot of them.
Just after making lunch, Jiang Run came back. Looking at the small great white shark he dragged back, Ye Fu was stunned for a few seconds.
"Being beaten by the wind and waves in the woods behind, he is already dead."
"This thing should only be used as fertilizer."
Jiang Run was confused, "Why?"
"It uses its skin to urinate."
"Then put it in the space and use it to grow vegetables and flowers later."
There was a trace of disgust in Jiang Run's eyes, and he threw the great white shark that he had dragged back so hard on the ground. Ye Fu lowered his head and snickered, and quickly put it into the space.
"Okay, it's time to eat. By the way, I made the squid I caught last time into a sizzling squid. Go try it."
"Is the squid delicious?"
"tasty."
Back at the wooden house, Jiang Run took off his coat, washed his hands and sat in front of the fireplace, waiting for Ye Fu to feed him.
"Try it and see."
Sprinkled with chili peppers, it's not only delicious, but also very spicy.
Jiang Run took a bite and said with surprise on his face, "It's delicious. I'll catch more of this in the future."
On the second day, Jiang Run was really focused on catching squid. He even went out to sea, but unfortunately he only brought back a bag of sardines.
"Sardines are also delicious." Ye Fu comforted him.
"Really?"
"certainly."
In the next few days, Jiang Run began to concentrate on fishing for sardines again. Ye Fu was amused by his behavior, always feeling that he was sometimes as stubborn as a child.
Starting from the tenth day of the first lunar month, the temperature dropped to minus 23 degrees, and the wind and waves became stronger and stronger. I had to visit the island several times almost every day.
Jiang Run took back the iron cages and fishing nets. There were too many fish and shrimps on the island to collect. The fish in the sea were left to survive for the time being.
The buckets and baskets in the space were full. Ye Fu took out some fir wood and worked with Jiang Run to make more than ten large wooden baskets out of the fir wood. They then covered them with a layer of plastic sheeting and put the fish and shrimp in them by category.
Keep all the beautiful shells and coral leaves, so that when you meet Wenwen and the others in the future, you can give them to them as gifts.
But the most surprising thing was the pile of river mussels that were blown up by the wind and waves, and Ye Fu opened dozens of pearls in them.
Judging from the quality, one is worth a lot of money.
It can be made into a necklace, I think Lin Siran will like it.
Now my daily job is to pick up fish and shrimps with tongs. I have to go out to pick them up every few hours, otherwise I won’t even have a place to stay.
In order to prevent the wooden house from being eroded by sea water, Ye Fu took out a large piece of oilcloth and covered the wooden house tightly. He also packed it tightly with stones, wood and snow, so that even if a hurricane came, it would not be able to blow up.
Late at night, Ye Fuzheng was sleeping soundly when a loud "clang" on the wooden roof woke them both up.
"I don't know what happened again this time. It feels like the beams were collapsed." Ye Fu muttered with his eyes closed.
"I'll go out and take a look."
"You don't have to go out, won't you know tomorrow morning?"
After saying that, Ye Fu fell asleep again. When she woke up the next day, she remembered what had been smashed on the roof last night, so she put on her big clothes and went out to check immediately.
"Is this a whale?"
Jiang Run had already pulled out the whale that had crashed into the snowdrift. Judging from the fact that it was not very big, it was probably still a calf.
The whale was already dead, so Ye Fu had no choice but to put it into the space first.
"You go back and get some sleep. I'll pick these up." There were densely packed fish, shrimps and crabs on the snow again. Jiang Run came over and helped Ye Fu gather her coat and pinched her face.
"I'm with you."
"No, I can pick it up soon."
"Then I'm going to make breakfast. I can't sleep anymore. What should I eat? Fried dough sticks, steamed buns, rice noodles, spicy noodles?"
"Noodle."
"Okay, just wait a moment, I'll do it right away."
Jiang Run couldn't help but laugh when he saw her funny look.
Ye Fu hummed a song and entered the kitchen. He first boiled a pot of hot water, washed his face and brushed his teeth, and then cooked two bowls of beef noodles.
"Jiang Run, it's time to have breakfast."
"good."
Jiang Run had picked up all the fish and shrimps and had sorted them out. Ye helped him out and put them into the space, then pulled him back to the wooden house.
The firewood in the fireplace was almost out, so Ye Fu added some more firewood, and sparks popped and exploded.
"Jiang Run, we have to make a few more big wooden baskets."
"Is it full again?"
Ye Fu nodded, "I pick it up several times a day, and I can pick up three or four baskets every time. We don't need to hunt in the future, there is too much food in the space."
It would be great if the wind and waves could hit a small yacht. She lacks everything now except a yacht.
Jiang Jun nodded, "Okay, you will bring out some fir trees later, and I will make a few more wooden baskets."
"The wind outside is so strong now. Since the temperature dropped to minus five degrees, the seagulls have disappeared."
"The temperature may still drop."
Ye Fu also had a premonition that it was already minus twenty-five degrees Celsius, but the temperature was getting cooler every day.
It's okay, I have survived the high temperature of more than 60 degrees, and the extreme cold of more than 60 degrees below zero, I should be able to survive it, Ye Fu cheered himself up.
Fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of firewood in the past few years, and it has been no problem to burn it for more than ten years.
