After relying on the motherland, my supermarket has become more and more prosperous.

Chapter 234 Water-Repellent Beads



Chapter 234 Water-Repellent Beads

When Zuo Xueming approached the supermarket, the original transparent bubble once again bordered on and adhered to the supermarket space.

As soon as he stepped into the supermarket, the effects of the water-repellent beads disappeared.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Wanwan asked immediately.

"It's okay, I'm fine!" Zuo Xueming replied as he couldn't wait to put down the lobster in his hand.

Then he stepped on the lobster's back to prevent it from jumping around in the supermarket.

"This is..." Jiang Wanwan looked at the lobster with a frown.

"I guess mermaids don't like to eat lobsters. They are everywhere underwater. This is just one I caught casually. It must weigh more than 20 kilograms! My hands are sore from holding it!" Zuo Xueming's face was full of excitement.

However, Jiang Wanwan's face was full of seriousness as she asked, "Where are your water-repellent beads?"

Zuo Xueming was startled, then he realized that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly explained.

"Don't worry, I'm keeping the water-repellent beads safe. I won't lose them!"

As he spoke, he reached into his arms, took out the water-repellent beads that were still emitting a bright light and handed them over.

Jiang Wanwan didn't reach out to take it, but spoke seriously.

"You shouldn't have let the water-repellent beads leave your hands just to catch lobsters! Losing them is secondary. The key is that without the protection of the water-repellent beads, you will die in an instant due to the excessive water pressure!"

Hearing this, Zuo Xueming's expression suddenly became serious and he explained seriously.

"I placed the water-repellent beads inside my innermost layer of clothing, so they shouldn't fall out under normal circumstances! Of course, this was my first experiment, so I needed to be more cautious. I reflect on my inappropriate behavior and am very grateful to my boss for his concern!"

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little tense, Jiang Wanwan softened her tone.

"Just be aware of this. After all, you only have one life. I brought you here, and I want to bring you back safely!"

"I understand. I will definitely be more cautious in the future!" Zuo Xueming promised.

We are all adults, so there is no need to repeat the instructions too many times.

Jiang Wanwan waved her hand, skipped the topic, and asked about the main business.

"Have you figured out the situation with the water-repellent beads? I see you can already control the direction?"

Speaking of this, Zuo Xueming also explained it in detail.

"Yes! I didn't notice it when I first went out, but when you pulled me up, I had a vague feeling that I could easily control the direction of the water-repellent beads!"

"If you want to move in a certain direction, you just need to think about it in your mind. Of course, the premise is to avoid water droplets and keep it close to your skin!"

The operation is quite convenient!

Jiang Wanwan nodded, then asked, "What about the movement speed?"

"Because of the water pressure, going downwards may be slower, about the same speed as taking an elevator. Going upwards can be two or three times faster!" Zuo Xueming replied.

Jiang Wanwan frowned immediately. She thought the diving speed was slow because Zuo Xueming was cautious, but she didn’t expect that it was already the limit?

"With such a slow speed, if there is danger, won't we be able to avoid it in time?"

Jiang Wanwan had seen before that fish in the sea water could enter the transparent bubbles without any hindrance.

Even with the mermaid's hearing, Zuo Xueming could sense the approach of a large fish 500 meters in advance, but he couldn't hide from its slow movement speed!

"Don't worry, the water-repellent bead space has a three-second delay. This is a function I gradually realized after I took control of the direction!" Zuo Xueming said with a smile.

"Three-second delay?" Jiang Wanwan didn't quite understand what this meant.

"I'll trigger this function. Once the fish touches the water-repellent space, they'll be kept out for three seconds!"

Zuo Xueming first explained this function, and then said.

"Three seconds of reaction time is enough for me to avoid any danger! Besides, there's no water in the water-repellent bead space, so if a fish enters, it's just walking into a trap!"

"You know, if I touch them, these fish will have no way to leave the water-repellent bead space freely!"

Like this?

The fish that entered the water-repellent bead space before was able to leave quickly because Zuo Xueming did not touch it?

However, this three-second delay is a good skill.

No matter how fast the fish is, it can dodge it with three seconds of buffer time!

After gaining a comprehensive understanding of the functions of the water-repellent beads, Jiang Wanwan finally felt relieved.

Seeing that Zuo Xueming was about to hand the water-repellent beads to him, he quickly waved his hand.

"I'll give you this water-repellent bead. Keep it safe for yourself. When I receive other water-repellent beads in the future, I'll bring them back to Earth!"

Zuo Xueming has to stay here permanently, so he needs to carry a water-repellent bead with him every day to better ensure his safety!

"Oh, and keep this rope too. When you go out later, remember to tie one end to the shelf!"

Jiang Wanwan untied the rope around her waist, handed it over and gave instructions.

The sea is boundless. If you are far away, it will be bad if you can't find a supermarket.

It’s better to tie a rope, so that you can feel more at ease!

Hearing this, Zuo Xueming did not refuse and solemnly put away the water-repellent beads and rope.

The matter of avoiding water beads has come to an end.

Jiang Wanwan looked at him and said, "I'm not taking you with me when I go back to Earth today. Is it okay for you to stay here alone?"

"No problem!" Zuo Xueming nodded firmly.

"The supermarket's defenses are incredibly strong. You can just sleep soundly at night. During the day, when you're not serving customers, you can go for a stroll in the sea or cast a fishing net. I'll pick you up tomorrow night at five!"

It was the new clerk's first time spending the night in a different world, so Jiang Wanwan had to say a few words of comfort as usual.

"I understand!" Zuo Xueming said with a smile.

Jiang Wanwan nodded and finally spoke.

"Alright! I'll be leaving first so you can take care of this giant lobster!"

The lobster has been out of water for some time, but it is still full of energy.

It jumped around at Zuo Xueming's feet, waving its two big pincers from time to time.

To be honest, it looks quite tempting.

If the supermarket had not yet been upgraded to level five, Jiang Wanwan would have taken it back to Earth!

After all, knowing that the new world is an ocean world.

In addition to being curious about mermaids, the members of the villa are also very craving for various seafood.

Zuo Xueming was left alone to fight the lobster.

Jiang Wanwan called 007, started the journey, and disappeared into the underwater supermarket.

At this moment, it was already past six in the evening, which was even later than the usual return time.

Jiang Wanwan walked out of the room and went downstairs. The sumptuous dinner that had been prepared was already on the table.

After dinner, I came to the living room and found Mr. Zhang waiting there.

Whenever New World was first developed, Mr. Zhang would come more frequently.

After all, there are too many situations in the new world and many things that need to be reported.

For example, at this moment, Jiang Wanwan is talking to Mr. Zhang about the experiment on water-repellent beads.

And when the underwater world is upgraded to level five and everything stabilizes.

Mr. Zhang can only come once every few days.
