Chapter 26: Still Fishing

The development of reality is always more of a headache than in the game or in it, and it comes more suddenly.

A week after Lindsay's successful fishing.

Eleni's horse fell ill.

It's not a calculation full of evil intentions, nor is it some persecution with evil intentions.

Simply because of the fright of the forest, coupled with the gloomy weather for the past two days, it has rained heavily.

The horses, who were in charge of pulling the carriages, fell ill.

Lindsey used her merchandise skills to identify the poor creature and confirmed that it had pneumonia.

As a lone businessman, Aleni also prepared medicines.

However, the environment in the forest is dark and damp, and the effect of medicine is not good.

In addition to relieving his beloved horse's pain, it is not possible to help him cure his illness immediately.

So, right on the edge of the forest.

The horses were half-crouched on the side of the road, panting on the ground with their dying, and the hoarse sound of 'hahaha' was uncomfortable to listen to.

And beside the lying horse.

Lindsay and Eleni, who had already jumped out of the car, looked at each other.

"Alini, how did you deal with this situation before?"

The merchant girl spread her hands helplessly:

"What else can I do, wait."

"Either wait for the horse to get well, or die of illness; Or wait until you meet someone else and talk about how you can help. ”

"That's how it was handled, anyway."

With that, Aleni looked at the green hellish forest around her, and couldn't help but complain:

"Seriously, if the stakes are not high enough, few people would want to come to this developing world."

"Even on the official road, it is as desolate as burrowing into the deep mountains and old forests!"

A few words of effort.

Elini's idea began to hit Lindsay:

"I remember...... It's about two days away from the next town. ”

"Lindsay, aren't you quite strong?"

Lindsey was alert:

"What do you mean?"

"Look, Xiaofang has been pulling you for almost three months~~"

Fang is the name that Eleni gave to the horse.

At this moment, the merchant girl smiled maliciously at Lindsay:

"It's three months of companionship, shouldn't you repay it at this time?"

Lindsay had a bad premonition in her heart, and asked tentatively:

"You're not going to let me hang up the reins and pull the cart for you and Xiao Fang, right?"

As if she was afraid that the person in front of her would run away, Aleni directly pounced and hugged Lindsay:

"It doesn't have to be that exaggerated!"

"As for the carriage, I can pack up the goods and stuff them into my own business space to take them away. But this kind of thing is very physically taxing, so you can help me carry the horse! ”

Lindsay's tone subtly confirmed:

"So the two of us walked with a carriage and a horse on our back."

Alene, sensing that Lindsay was about to break free from her embrace, cried out unladylikely:

"Wait, I can give the money!"

“……”

Lindsey certainly doesn't waver for such reasons.

However, it was precisely because of Eleni's embarrassment that he had another thought in his heart.

For the rest of the week, they had been following the river.

Because Jiuwan City is a city where rivers meet.

The river in the forest not far away undoubtedly leads to the city in the middle of the world.

Now you can't rely on horses on the road, so change your mind.

"Alini, what do you think of us taking the waterway?"

The merchant girl's expression was stunned, but she quickly understood Lindsay's thoughts:

"Waterway, but we don't have a boat?"

Lindsey replied simply:

"If we don't have a boat, we'll build one!"

“……”

"You're not going to be like those craftsmen who can make magical props, right?"

Aleni was undoubtedly right.

But Lindsay didn't have the idea of explaining all her old background, so she just smiled lightly:

"You're thinking too much."

"I'll just build a normal boat, let's just slide along."

Lindsay's plan is undoubtedly the way to go.

Alini let go of her hands, went back to appease Xiaofang, and replied to Lindsay by the way:

"That's fine."

"But in this case, Lindsay, you have done me a favor again, do you want to charge for it this time?"

Lindsey didn't say no:

"If you don't want to pay for it, I'm fine here."

Aleni looked up, and she was suspicious of the man who had made a lot of money of herself:

"What's going on? Are you merciful today? ”

Lindsey had already taken out the axe.

He cut down a green sandalwood tree with a few clicks, and he cut out a simple oar and threw it to Eleni next to the horse.

The merchant girl took the oars with a blank expression.

Looking up again, Lindsay has also continued to work, while explaining:

"If you're on a boat, someone has to rock the oars, right?"

Aleni pointed to herself with the oar in her hand:

"So...... I'm going to row? ”

"That's right." Lindsay nodded affirmatively, "My boat has already been made, and of course I will take the boat after that." ”

Aleni was clearly still thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

Lindsey began to mentally bewitch:

"Alini, you have saved money, I have saved energy, so that everyone will be happy?"

Hearing the word "saving money", Alini forced herself to think.

Looking at Lindsay's men a few more times, the wooden boat already has a prototype. She also had to admit that it was a reasonable suggestion.

“……”

Half an hour later, there was an extra boat gliding forward in the river.

The trees on both sides of the river row rowed backwards like a curtain of rain.

And in the boat, Aleni sat in the stern, swaying the oars with great difficulty.

A horse lay sideways in the center of the hull, gasping for air uncomfortably in its mouth.

As for Lindsay.

He didn't really give up the boating work entirely to Eleni.

When building a ship, Lindsay made a sail to stand in the center, which can be effective even in the forest after being recycled, saving Aleni some effort.

In this case.

Lindsay sat alone in the bow of the boat, throwing out his rod and fishing in a boat that was not very stable.

If you catch a wooden box, that's fine.

Lindsey tugged hard in the air, casually opened the box, and took out the contents.

But if it's a fish......

During the harvest, the fishtail inevitably flicked in the air, splashing Eleni's face.

Subsequently, complaints are often heard on board:

"Lindsay, I've never seen anyone like you!"

"But I'm not helping you save money?"

"Then you should also pay attention to your fish, and don't keep throwing water in my face!"

"I can't control the fish's tail, but ...... Why don't I wipe it for you? ”

"Be careful, don't step on my horse!"

That's it.

The improvised team continued to sail along the river in the direction of Nine Bay City.
