Chapter 293, Fish Creek

"Bang~"

Silly Bear slowly came to a reindeer. The reindeer made no move. Creatures like humans simply did not exist in its memory, so there was no sense of crisis.

Silly Bear took a mace and knocked it lightly, and a huge reindeer was directly knocked to death and fell down in a daze.

However, the reindeer herd did not panic because of the fall of the reindeer. Instead, they still looked at the silly bears, monkeys and others with great curiosity.

"Haha, silly deer, silly deer, you are so stupid, you don't even know how to run."

The monkey looked at the silly reindeer in front of him and couldn't help laughing happily. He had never seen such silly deer before, and hunting had never been so simple and easy.

It knocked out a deer with just one stroke of the stick, and it took no effort at all, as if it was just standing there for you to knock.

"Let's go, go, go back. I've never seen such a stupid deer before. I thought it would take a lot of effort."

Soon the five people hunted the headless reindeer. While dragging it back, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, this silly deer really deserves its name.

At the camp where the fleet is stationed, smoke is rising from the kitchen, and tents have been set up. The crew even cut down wood to build a wooden house here so that they can use it when they come back. Anyway, the wood here is really good.

too much.

Du Mingen was taking a shower. The conditions on the ship were limited. Even though he was the leader of the entire fleet, he could only be the same as everyone else. There were no special exceptions.

When fresh water is extremely precious, it is impossible to take a bath or anything, so everyone's body is smelly and greasy. On land, not only Du Min'en, but everyone in the entire fleet has to take a bath.

.

"Ah~ comfortable~"

After taking a nice hot bath, Du Mingen felt completely refreshed and had an indescribable sense of comfort.

After taking a bath, Du Mingen also held a cup of tea and drank tea while patrolling the camp.

"After taking a bath, I have a cup of tea. It feels really comfortable."

Du Mingen couldn't help but sigh.

"Brothers, look, what is this?"

At this time, a team member who went out for hunting came back happily and said loudly as he walked.

"Iron Rooster, what good things did you get?"

"Take it out quickly~"

"It's just, it's just, it makes you happy."

When the other crew members in the camp heard this, they immediately asked.

"Haha, I caught fish, a lot of fish~"

The crew member known as the Iron Rooster took out several fish from behind him. The fish were skewered with rattan rods. Each fish weighed seven or eight kilograms. The same was true for several other team members following the Iron Rooster, each carrying it.

Several fish came back.

"I'll go~ I thought something was wrong. This fish is already vomiting after eating it, but you still caught the fish and brought it back."

"That's right, you haven't eaten enough fish yet."

"...An iron rooster is an iron rooster. What's so strange about this fish?"

When everyone saw the fish, they immediately said that everyone ate fish almost every day when they were on the boat, and they had already vomited after eating it. The sight of fish made them unappetizing.

"You may not have noticed, but the river is full of fish like this. They are so densely packed that you can't even count them. It's strange to say that all these fish are swimming upstream."

Iron Rooster curled his lips and then told what he had discovered.

"You said the river is full of these fish?"

Du Mingen walked over with a smile and asked with great interest.

"Yes, they are all this kind of fish. I don't know how many of these bright red fish. They are all in the whole river. The water where we stopped is deep, but I don't think that in the shallow water in front, when I look across,

The whole river was crowded with these fish, too many, too many, and we caught as many as we wanted."

Iron Rooster said.

"Yes, they are all this kind of fish. They are very easy to catch. I just don't know if these fish are edible or not. Why are they red in color? But I saw bears. There are many bears hunting this kind of fish in the river. They should be edible."

Iron Rooster's teammates also followed suit.

"Yes, yes, there are also bears. These bears are very big, but they are brown, not black bears."

Iron Rooster also said quickly.

"Come on, take me to see you."

Du Mingen became interested and quickly called some people, brought weapons and crossbows and headed towards the place where Iron Rooster said.

The place Iron Rooster mentioned was not far from their camp, only a few miles away, and they arrived quickly.

"Oh my god, there are too many fish here. How many fish are there?"

"The whole river is crowded with these fish~"

“It’s really spectacular~”

As soon as Du Mingen and others arrived, they looked into the shallow river water and saw that the entire river was full of red fish swimming desperately upstream. There were so many fish that the color of the entire river changed.

Everything has changed and turned into a red patch.

There are also huge bears in the river enjoying this gluttonous feast. Fish are delivered to the mouths of these bears almost without moving.

"The world's great wonders!"

Du Mingen was also dumbfounded. He had seen too many fish, and he was tired of eating all kinds of sea fish, but this was the first time he saw so many fish crowded in the river, forming such a spectacular scene.

"Let's call this river Fish Creek!"

Du Mingen finally thought of a name that suited this river.

Of course Du Mingen and others did not know that these fish were salmon, also called salmon. There are many kinds of salmon on the entire earth. In the Kamchatka Peninsula, six species of Pacific salmon migrate here every year to lay eggs.

This was the season when salmon migrated to spawn, and they were lucky enough to witness this scene. It was extremely cold here, and there were no traces of humans at all. Because there were no traces of humans, the most primitive environment was maintained.

of natural environment.

If these salmon migrated to places with human activities, they would basically be caught by humans, and it would be impossible to form such a spectacular migration landscape.

"Catch more and go back and see how these fish taste."

After watching here for a long time, Du Mingen also ordered, then looked at the bears fishing in the river and said: "Get some more bears back, the bear skins can be used to keep warm, and the bear paws can be pickled and brought back.

Go tomorrow."

For people in this era, there is no awareness of ecological protection at all. Once they encounter them, there is no reason to let them go. In fact, without Du Mingen's instructions, the crew is already preparing to hunt these brown bears.

Du Mingen had just returned to the camp, and crew members who went out for hunting and expeditions came back one after another.

"Haha, look at the good stuff we brought back. This snow-white, snow-white fox. The fur alone is worth at least a thousand taels of silver if it is brought back to the Ming Dynasty."

A crew member came back carrying several snow-white foxes with smiles on their faces. This kind of white fox is very rare in Ming Dynasty, but there are many here. These are Arctic fox and silver fox.

"Tsk tsk, this fur is incredible, there isn't even a stray hair on it."

"Are there many foxes like this? I also want to get a few furs like this and give them to my daughter as a dowry when I return to the Ming Dynasty."

"There are a lot of them on the cliff over there, but it's not easy to get them. The leather will be damaged easily."

"Do you have any good guys? Come with me quickly. I'll treat you all to a drink later~"

"Yes, yes, I'm pretty good at hunting~ Let's go, let's go, don't miss such good leathers, I'll get a few back too."

When the other crew members saw it, they immediately went out in groups to hunt this kind of fox. This kind of pure white fox with dull fur is so rare, and it is extremely precious in the Ming Dynasty.

"There are pure white foxes, and they seem to be quite numerous!"

Du Mingen silently noted this down again.

The crew members who went out hunting brought back a lot of things, including various animals, including large reindeer, elk, small arctic foxes, silver foxes, etc. Some people also hunted brown bears, snow sheep, etc.

Every time someone comes back from hunting, they naturally have to shout and show off to others.

"You don't know how stupid these deer are. Even if we walk up to these stupid deer, they won't leave. If we hit them with a stick, the other deer won't move."

"Do not believe?"

"If you don't believe it, look at the injuries on this silly deer. Except for the head, there are no injuries at all anywhere else. Now you have to believe it."

This is the monkey showing off to others the reindeer he hunted. Well, it has now been named Silly Deer by him.

"Look at this kind of sheep. Its fur is snow-white, without any stray hairs. This sheepskin is worth dozens of taels of silver. The key is that it is so stupid that it is not afraid of people at all. It is very easy to see people.

Good hunting.”

"How come someone hunts a pure white fox? A piece of skin is worth thousands of taels?"

"Where are the people? Where did you hunt them? Let's go, let's go."

A crew member who hunted snow sheep boasted that after hearing about the snow fox, he hurriedly went hunting for arctic fox.

"Tsk tsk, have you seen this big guy?"

"This bear weighs at least several hundred kilograms. Fortunately, I brought a musket. Otherwise, there is really nothing I can do with it. The skin is too thick. But if this bear skin is brought back to the Ming Dynasty, it will be worth hundreds of taels anyway.

Silver, right?”

A crew member who hunted a brown bear was showing off his trophies. Almost everyone thought of skins, which were rare in the Ming Dynasty, but they were everywhere here.

"Brothers, we are rich, we are rich."

At this time, someone came back in a hurry, holding a gold nugget in his hand.

"We found a river that was golden, full of gold sand, and a lot of gold nuggets!"

As the man shouted loudly, the entire camp exploded.
