, Day 1: Night falls, the sea breeze is biting.

"It's getting dark; it's already dusk."

"..."

While looking at the information in the regional channel, Ye Fan looked up at the distant sky and found that the sun was about to set and the light was gradually disappearing, which meant that it was almost dark.

In his view, even more people would likely die this night.

If you don't get any supplies in the morning, the chances of finding any useful supplies at night are almost zero!

If you don't have warm clothing or supplies around, you might suffer from frostbite if you're cold all night.

Even though Ye Fan knew that many people might die in the future, he wouldn't give away his resources just to play the saint.

Even though he needs reputation now, what he urgently needs are survival materials.

Choosing to be a saint means a slow death.

"Let's sell the fish that Wang Da and Wang Er caught before it gets dark."

"..."

Ye Fan glanced at the sea fish on the deck. In just a short while, another seventy or eighty sea fish had been piled up. If all these sea fish were broken down, at least 500-600 units of fish meat could be obtained.

He only planned to sell 300 units of the fish, leaving the remaining 100-plus units for his daily expenses on the boat.

This time, the supplies he wanted to exchange were quite simple. Besides wood blocks and iron blocks, he also wanted to see if anyone was selling warm supplies, such as blankets or mattresses.

You need to improve your sleep quality. Don't think of it as a waste of resources. A good night's sleep is very valuable.

So Ye Fan posted his trading information on the trading channel again.

[Seller Ye Fan: 300 units of fish meat. Requires 50 units of wood blocks, 20 units of iron blocks, daily necessities, rare seasonings, or relic-grade items.]

[Note: Private messages are welcome; please send the items you wish to trade directly in the private message.]

.....

Once this message was sent out, everyone in the entire regional channel went completely crazy... What surprised them was that Ye Fan had caught another 300 units of sea fish in such a short time. Could it be that he had caught hundreds of sea fish?

Otherwise, how could one have so many in such a short time!

What's even more enviable is that Ye Fan clearly has more than just these fish; he owns enough sea fish to trade for daily necessities.

"I'm going, slow down! Why are you all so fast? Ye Fan only put it on sale for a minute and he's already snapped up most of it?"

"Household items? Do slippers count? I just opened a box and found a pair of cotton slippers."

"I'm impressed. Compared to the real big shots, I'm nothing. I'm still struggling to survive, while Ye Fan has already started exchanging for daily necessities."

"Do you need an iron pot? Can you trade one iron pot for a fish?"

.......

Ye Fan glanced at the information on the channel, his heart not flustered much. To be honest, he just wanted to gather some more materials before nightfall and see if there were any useful resources. As for other people's praise, he could just take it with a grain of salt.

Replacing the items is the priority.

However, it must be said that the fish meat had just been listed, and I had already exchanged the 50 wood blocks and 20 iron blocks I needed for it... I still have 230 units of fish meat left, I can check the private chat status on the trading post.

If we find something good, we can raise the price on our end.

So he started "sifting for gold in the shit" in the private chat, which was mostly garbage.

"Torn shoes with holes? You're going to trade these for fish with me?"

"Two feet wearing different sizes of socks...that's hilarious."

"Two glasses are barely enough, but... they actually want twenty units of fish?"

Ye Fan searched around and suddenly found a trade item that satisfied him. Both the item itself and the price were quite good.

[Seller Gu Lingling: A spring mattress. Please, sir, I'll trade this mattress for a fish.]

[Note: Hey bro, I haven't eaten all day. This mattress is all I have. I'm hoping to trade it for some fish.]

......

A spring mattress... When Ye Fan saw this, he was immediately delighted; this was a good thing.

There wasn't even a mattress in the captain's cabin, just a hard board bed without a pillow... With this mattress, I can finally get a good night's sleep.

And looking at the price Gu Lingling offered, it was for one sea fish, roughly equivalent to eight units of fish meat.

This price isn't expensive...it's even quite cheap for them, and compared to others who ask for exorbitant prices, this is a pretty good deal.

So Ye Fan offered a more reasonable price and changed the number of fish he was trading from one to two.

"It's been changed."

Ye Fan didn't think about it for long. Two fish meant nothing to him. With a thought, two fish disappeared from his deck, replaced by a brand new spring mattress!

After the transaction was completed, Ye Fan couldn't wait to move it to his shipyard room. His wooden bed was 2 x 1.8 meters, and the mattress he had just received was also that size.

It can be said to fit perfectly.

After covering the wooden bed with it, Ye Fan lay down comfortably, the softness enveloping his entire body... This made him sigh, "This is life!"

With this spring mattress, I can finally get a good night's sleep.

......

At this moment, on a semi-automatic ship an unknown distance away from Ye Fan's location, Gu Lingling was gripping her fishing rod with a look of despair on her face. She hadn't eaten anything since she transmigrated here, and if she didn't get any food soon, she might faint.

Besides, it's getting dark now, so it's impossible to catch any fish now.

Now she can only hope that Ye Fan will agree to the deal and be willing to exchange a sea fish for her spring mattress. If he doesn't agree, she might have to go hungry for a night in this unknown sea.

Thinking of this, Gu Lingling felt like crying.

[Ye Fan: I'll take your mattress. I won't take advantage of you. Here are two fish for you.]

.....

Just then, a message popped up in front of Gu Lingling's eyes. After reading the contents, she was clearly stunned. The other party had actually changed their mind and sent her two sea fish at once.

Ding!

The system's transaction completion notification was crisp and clear. Two pre-dissected sea fish appeared in front of her. Realizing what had happened, Gu Lingling quickly sent a series of messages.

"Thank you so much, sir. You're so kind as to thank me."

"If I have anything good in the future, I'll definitely ask you first."

Gu Lingling had just sent the message when she discovered that Ye Fan had already closed the message box, seemingly not caring much about her.
