Our neighborhood has been transported again.

Chapter 328 Island Development

"Alright, since you want some, selling them to you isn't out of the question," Xie Ya chuckled.

The two talked and then walked out of the room.

A figure dressed entirely in black and wearing a mask waited for a long time outside the door.

"The boss!"

Xie Ya glanced at him. Normally she wouldn't ask, but thinking about what happened to Pang Ming, she couldn't help but ask, "How have you been lately? Has anyone else gotten close?"

"some."

Xie Ya's smile vanished. "Really? What's the origin of it?"

The subordinate said, "I don't know. They came riding a bird. That bird must be extraordinary. It was very fast and came from the direction of the mountains."

Xie Ya frowned upon hearing this. "I remember that about two months ago, a beginner's Abyss appeared on this map."

"Yes, but I don't know the exact location."

Xie Ya pondered for a long time after hearing this, "Go over there later and take a look, it's best to find out the situation."

At this point, Xie Ya felt a little annoyed. She hoped that a situation similar to Pang Ming's would not happen, as she had worked hard to plant these trees.

Although it's just one of her businesses, if something goes wrong, all the effort and hard work she's put in will be wasted.

"Yes."

After speaking, Xie Ya returned home, and a moment later came out again with five men on horseback.

The five men had curved swords at their waists, and long spears hanging from the sides of their horses.

Each horse was extremely tall and strong, with a small horn on its forehead.

"Your mission is to go over there and investigate, find out what's going on, and don't leave any trace."

"Yes!"

The city gates opened, and the five men quickly rode their horses northward.

"Gibberish." Inside the Hundred Schools of Books Tower, Cao Biansheng sat in a chair by the window, with Qin Ziwu sitting opposite him, each holding a book in the language of fishmen.

"This is so hard!" Cao Biansheng put down his book and leaned back. "My God, I don't even think English is this difficult."

Qin Ziwu's forehead was covered in sweat as he concentrated intently, uttering strange syllables from his mouth.

Cao Biansheng looked at Qin Ziwu and said, "As expected of a senior high school student, your learning ability is stronger than mine, a college student."

Qin Ziwu glanced at him, then shook his head. "Actually, I'm a sports student."

“…” Cao Biansheng’s lips twitched.

Qin Ziwu added, "My older brother promised me that once I learn the Merfolk language, he will customize a set of exclusive equipment for me, a high-purity Ghost Gold set."

"Damn!" Cao Biansheng exclaimed, "I want one too!"

The Ordnance Bureau has a heavy workload every day, and it produces a certain amount of weapons and equipment daily.

However, most of them are assembly line equipment, provided for overall use.

As far as he knows, for example, at this stage, they are equipping the fishmen with weapons and customizing a harpoon for them to fight underwater!
This harpoon incorporates some gold alloy, making it top-notch in both strength and flexibility!

Having a custom-made set of equipment for starting a furnace is a luxury.

Cao Biansheng rubbed his hands together and said shamelessly, "Ask your brother if he needs a younger brother. Maybe I can call him brother too."

Qin Ziwu said, "You've made quite a few contributions, why don't you use those contributions to exchange for a set?"

"That won't do! Free stuff never tastes as good as something you pay for!"

"Cough cough cough." A coughing sound came from the side. The two looked at each other and quickly lowered their voices.

Beside the island reef, by the sea, all that can be seen is an open space by the sea.

A series of simple wooden boats were strung together, interspersed with planks, which were then secured to the boats with ropes. Airbags and empty barrels were also attached nearby, forming a makeshift offshore work platform.

At this moment, you can see many people going in and out of the area; some are carrying net baskets, while others are holding buckets and fishing rods.

Jia Liangcai said to Qin Ziwen on the shore, "Sir, this is the fishing platform we have built at sea. It is convenient for fishing and casting nets. When the catch here is less, we can just disassemble and reassemble it, change the direction, and continue casting nets."

"Yes, that's good. It can help some of the workforce find work and work nearby." Qin Ziwen nodded. "However, we still need to pay attention to safety. If there is heavy rain or other weather conditions, remember to notify us in time."

Jia Liangcai said, "Don't worry, sir. Now that we have the weather altar, we can predict the weather for the next day in advance, so there won't be any accidents."

Qin Ziwen seemed to remember something and asked, "Those are fine, but how is the development progress on the other surrounding islands?"

Jia Liangcai said, "Sir, we have already established a simple settlement on the nearest island, but it is taking a long time to survey the island's environment and clear out wild animals and venomous snakes."

"Oh? I'll have to go check what time the boat leaves."

"If you need it, sir, we have it now."

"No rush, what time is the ferry?"

"It's three o'clock in the afternoon, one hour left."

"Then I'll wait." Qin Ziwen waved his hand.

Two days have passed since the fishmen came ashore.

After resolving the troubles with other neighborhoods and the murlocs, the focus of the neighborhood's strategy shifted to the surrounding archipelago.

The surrounding islands became the focus of the strategy.

3pm.

A new ship, just launched from Ghost Dock, slowly docked beside the reef, with a long, thick gangplank extending from its deck to the shore.

At this time, a line of thirty people had already formed on the shore.

Someone noticed Qin Ziwen and immediately cheered.

Upon reaching the deck, Qin Ziwen looked around. The ship's main function was to carry people, not to fish, so the deck was rather spacious, unlike fishing boats whose decks were filled with various tools.

Everyone took turns finding seats.

The ship moved slowly, its surface rippling slightly. Someone on board covered their forehead, stuck their head out, and vomited with a "whoosh."

Someone nearby joked, "Seasick? It's okay, you'll get used to it after a few more times."

The wooden boat wasn't very fast; with the sails hoisted, it took nearly half an hour to reach another nearby island.

This island is not the island where the urban village is located; it is an island to the south of the residential area.

This island is also quite large, ranking among the top five in the surrounding archipelago.

However, the terrain is relatively flat, the trees on the island are somewhat sparse, and there is a straight beach near the northern shore.

The scenery is quite beautiful.

Three simple wooden huts have been set up where the boats are docked.

At this time, you can still see more than a dozen craftsmen busy cutting down trees and collecting materials to build houses.

Qin Ziwen disembarked with the crowd.

Stepping onto the soft sand, I saw how beautiful the beach was, with its pale gold color and the azure seawater washing over it, creating bursts of foam.

On the long beach, some people were gathering seafood.

This undeveloped beach is rich in resources.

In the nearshore area, he even saw two small boats with people casting nets to fish on the decks.

His arrival caused quite a stir. Guo Xiaochun, the person in charge here, ran over and said, "President, you've arrived! We just got a whole abalone and were just about to send it to you."
