Chapter 489. 489. Ocean: Exchange

But fish demons are actually just like humans.

They can restrain their desires not because they are worried about the fisherman's gain, but because the interests are not enough to make them take risks.

After all, everyone is a fish monster, and they are evenly matched. You can kill at most one fish monster at a time and get a purple pearl.

But just for such a purple pearl, they not only have to risk a high probability of being injured, they may even lose their lives...

But it is different now, there are more than 500 purple pearls on this ship...

Contrary to the composition of the waterproof paint, the waterproof paint can drive away the fish demon, but the energy of the purple pearl can attract the fish demon.

This is why Poirot's fleet will be surrounded by tens of thousands of fish monsters at night, because these fish monsters are attracted by the energy contained in the five hundred purple pearls...

As for why those fleets carrying dozens of hundreds of purple pearls don't attract the fish demon tide, it has something to do with the ocean's magnetic field.

The ocean magnetic field will not only affect humans, but also marine life that has been living in the ocean.

If there are not enough purple pearls, the magnetic field will affect the energy of the purple pearls, preventing them from being discovered by the fish demon.

If there are too many purple pearls that cannot be covered by the magnetic field, they will be discovered.

Of course, it is almost impossible to encounter the same situation as Poirot's fleet.

Because when the number of purple pearls reaches a certain number (between less and more), due to the influence of the magnetic field, the fish demon will regard this number of purple pearls as a whole, and thus feel 'fear' and dare not approach.

That's why the previous captain said that they found about a hundred fish monsters after searching half a circle. Because this reached a certain value, those fish monsters avoided the ship's actions because of fear.

In other words, if you want to get hundreds of thousands of purple pearls at once, unless you pour bait into the sea crazily like this deputy captain, and attract hundreds of thousands of fish demons at once, otherwise it is almost impossible. impossible things.

That's why after the fish demon day, Su Mo kindly gave advice, telling everyone not to use bait when the fish demon sails out on the sun.

As for whether you believe it or not... what does this have to do with her?
Anyway, their lives are their own. They are willing to die, and Su Mo can't stop them. She has said everything she should say.

……

Having said that, Poirot's solution to this matter is actually quite simple, all he needs to do is throw the purple pearl on the boat into the sea, and these fish demons will naturally fight over the purple pearl, and they just need to run away and it's over.

The people who received the communication truthfully told them the solution, but whether they would adopt it, or whether they would throw back the huge wealth they got because they were reluctant, that was their own business.

"More than 500 purple pearls...that's five 10,000+..." The person listening to the story clicked his tongue twice, and for a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart.

"Five 10,000+? You don't even think about the price of five 10,000+!" The other person sneered, and one sentence directly woke him up.

Thinking of the experience of this fleet being surrounded by tens of thousands of fish monsters at night...

Suddenly I feel that I am not so envious...

Thinking about it this way, it is better to honestly take what should be taken and take part of it.

"And it's not 10,000+. The captain was also decisive. It is said that almost all the pearls on the ship were thrown away. There were only five hundred pearls left, and he didn't even return any of them."

Hearing this, the other person felt even more regretful.

Consuming supplies, wasting time, being frightened, and facing death... After experiencing so many things, it turned out that I couldn't even make it back. This is really a loss.

But, if you really think so, it's still a bit greedy.

After all, they all survived, didn't they?
……

……

What happened to Poirot's fleet soon spread throughout the Sand Islands.

It wasn't something he actively promoted, nor was it something other people deliberately said.

The reason why everyone knew about this incident was that Poirot directly returned to the voyage after experiencing this incident, and then led a group of crew members to find the home of the nobleman who instigated the vice-captain to do such a harmful thing, and then directly gave the nobleman's home to him. It's over.

In the beginning, although the other nobles were unwilling to meddle, in order to protect the face of the nobles and prevent other fleets from following suit, they were prepared to stop them.

It's just that after hearing the reason, they all stood by and watched, assuming that this person was not a nobleman.

The reason why they don't help is also very simple. There are nobles in every place, but there is a rule that all three major islands abide by by default-people who are not in the fleet are not allowed to intervene in the affairs of the fleet.

Even if this person is an aristocrat.

Because there have been incidents before where the crew of the enemy's fleet was bribed to cause a shipwreck. As a result, the enemy died and other innocent crew members also died.

In order to avoid this situation from happening again, there was an unspoken unspoken rule among the fleet that 'non-fleet people are not allowed to meddle in the affairs of the fleet'.

If there is still someone whose fleet is at risk of shipwreck because of his own selfish desires, then no matter what kind of retaliation this person suffers in the future, he is not worthy of sympathy and understanding, and others will not lend a helping hand.

If it was like the previous situation where there was a deep hatred, some people might still sympathize.

But if this is the case, for the sake of sharing more money for themselves, and then directly disregarding the risk of the fleet's voyage and committing a stupid act, this is something that everyone will spit on.

Of course, although the nobleman was behind the scenes, the vice-captain was not innocent, so he naturally paid the price.

……

The matter of Poirot was settled here.

But the impact of this matter is not small.

The most obvious effect is that everyone has become more honest, and those who are careful and thoughtful no longer think about whether to use bait to test the bottom line of the fish monster.

Unless they also want to feel the feeling of being surrounded by tens of thousands of fish monsters.

Of course, ordinary people definitely don't have the guts to do so, so naturally no one dares to do this.

……

The Fish Demon Day, which lasted for seventeen days, came to an end today. Although many fleets experienced many things during the period, overall, everyone gained a lot.

After all, the value of the purple pearl lies there.

After more than half a month of busy work, I finally had time to rest. The first thing everyone did was to rush to the grocery store with their harvest.

Everyone is eager to exchange the purple pearls for ordinary pearls.

Even though they knew the value of the purple pearls, they still felt unreal in their hearts. After much deliberation, they had to exchange them for common pearls to make them feel more at ease.

At the beginning, everyone was worried that the boss would not be willing to exchange it, but what they didn't expect was that the second day after the first person made this request, everyone found that there was another box similar to the collection box in the grocery store. .
