Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start

Chapter 16: Trading Crisis

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In order to prevent the explanation from being unclear and misleading the other players, Meng Lei had repeated the same transaction three times.

Each trade option had a unit of fish hung out, and the items needed for the trade were then listed below.

Meng Lei had not chosen these items casually.

Each of the materials was the material needed to restore the small gravity ball.

Currently, the problem of fresh water had been temporarily resolved, but a stable source of food was still unknown.

Although three units of fish meat could allow him to last two more days, for the sake of long-term development, Meng Lei felt that it was more reliable to make the gravity ball first.

With this divine tool for exploration in hand, it would not be a problem for him to have as many fish as he wanted in the future.

At this moment, as Meng Lei’s three units of fish were put up, the communication channel, which had not calmed down, exploded again!

[Golden Wheel: Damn, damn, damn! The big guy of Bottomless Valley has actually hung out three units of fish meat all at once. He’s simply a god! Has he crawled into a fish nest?!]

[Love Sauce: Boohoo… What a large piece of fish meat. I’m so hungry. I really want to eat it…]

[Charge: Previously, there were occasionally people who hung out fish and crab meat on the trading platform. However, the quantity was worlds apart from that of Bottomless Valley! With just this piece of fish meat, it is more than enough to last two days if eaten sparingly! Which fish was this decomposed from?!]

[Little Confused: I have iron here, and I have enough, but where can I get the aluminum and titanium? What does Bottomless Valley want these things for? Could it be that he is already preparing to upgrade the submarine?!]

[Bad Luck: Is this a game we’re playing? I’ve only collected five portions of plant fiber so far. I haven’t even made a fishing net. Not only has he built a freshwater extractor, he has even started to sell food. How generous is this? This is unfair!!]

[Alice: Handsome from Bottomless Valley, can you give me a portion of fish? I’m so hungry! After I have filled my stomach, tell me your coordinates. I can come and satisfy all your requests ~]

[Great Harmony: Damn it, how could he have caught so much fish in such a short period of time! He must have cheated! I want to report this!]

[Big Saber: Heh, you dog upstairs, are you going to say that you were the one who lost the fish? Come, come, tell me your coordinates. I’ll teach you a lesson!]

[Red Clouds of Sunset: Those above, get out of the way. Leave it to me! You’re still making a fuss even though you’ve arrived at the alien planet. I’ll risk my life to sink that beast!]

…

The three units of fish meat being hung out at the same time caused a huge commotion.

The reactions of the people from different countries and ethnicities were different.

Some radicals had even started to fight after discovering opposing targets with strong ethnic hatred!

Tens of thousands of people had gathered in this narrow communication channel, and it was very lively.

Even Meng Lei had not expected his action to cause such a huge reaction.

Sitting silently in front of the central console, Meng Lei’s eyes were blank.

“It’s just three pieces of fish meat. This group of people… Is there a need…”

“However, that fellow called Great Harmony seems to be a little rascal. If there’s a chance, I will plot against him!”

A murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and Meng Lei retracted his gaze from the communication channel.

At this moment, his private chat list started to flash crazily.

One after another, a large number of players contacted Meng Lei in private, hoping to exchange for the fish in his hands.

[The Pioneer: Brother, I have ten units of iron here. I’ll exchange it for a piece of fish meat. Do you want it?]

[Goddess of Liberty: Hi, my friend. I don’t have enough aluminum and titanium for the time being. Can I use other resources to pay for them?]

[Zimmier: Friend, do you want some vodka? It’s fresh and has just been fished out from a supply box. I have only drunk half the bottle. I’ll trade it for a piece of fish. Is that okay?!]

[Fallen Heart: Little Brother, I’m so hungry. Can you give me a piece of meat to eat? After I’ve finished the meat, you can eat me up. This way, no one will be hungry, okay ~]

…

Hundreds and thousands of private messages made Meng Lei’s eyes blur. He was a little stunned.

Although he could not see the other party’s appearance directly in these private messages, Meng Lei could tell from the language and the name of the submarine that there were many foreigners.

However, the text sent by the other party showed that it was proper Chinese characters.

Meng Lei guessed that the System was able to translate automatically.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to communicate.

Moreover, everyone had provided all kinds of trading items.

Vodka, cigarettes, toilet paper, lighter…

There were all kinds of strange things.

Meng Lei could not help but sweat. He really did not know where they had salvaged all these crazy items from.

In addition, apart from those who were sincere about exchanging items, there were also many people who threatened him verbally; they either begged him bitterly or pressured him on moral grounds.

There were also those who tempted him with their beauty. Everyone exhausted all means to exchange for a piece of fish meat.

Meng Lei sneered silently.

At this time, there were still people who could not recognize reality.

All the social structures and order in the past had collapsed. Even if you were the emperor, in the depths of this endless sea, all living beings had to be equal.

Therefore, Meng Lei directly ignored these guys.

However, there were too many private messages.

After more than ten minutes, Meng Lei still could not finish reading all the private messages.

He realized that he could not continue to waste time like this.

Thus, he activated the submarine’s auto-navigation function again.

While letting the submarine continue to set sail and head towards the gathering place of the first outpost, he set the resources like titanium, aluminum, and plastic as keywords through the filtering options of the chat list.

This way, a large amount of useless information was filtered out.

The list immediately became much clearer and simpler.

In fact, Meng Lei knew very well that the trading requirements that he had directly listed on the trading platform were difficult to meet with the ability of most players at this stage.

His real goal was to let the other players understand his requirements and then trade in private chat.

This way, there would be more room to bargain and maximize the benefits.

Of course, if any big guy could provide the resources he needed, it would be better to buy them directly from the trading platform, saving him the trouble of talking.

However, it was obvious that such a big guy did not exist.

Ten minutes later, Meng Lei finally selected a more reliable buyer from the private chat list.

However, after seeing the submarine’s name, Meng Lei raised his eyebrows and stroked his chin meaningfully.

“Divine Dragon, is it actually him?”
