Getting an error while running 'deploy.js'

[kartikver15gr8]

I'm learning Blockchain through @PatrickAlphaC's FCC 32 hours long video and I'm currently at time-stamp 7:10:01 / 1:07:54:30

At this time stamp, Patrick is teaching 'ethers.js' and he runs deploy.js and was able to run it successfully.

but when I tried to run my deploy.js using the command node deploy.js through the terminal it showed me this error:

The code I've written in deploy.js is :

const ethers = require("ethers");
const fs = require("fs-extra");
const { JsonRpcProvider } = require("ethers");

async function main() {
  // compile them in our code
  // compile them separately
  // http://127.0.0.1:7545
  const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider(
    "http://127.0.0.1:7545"
  );

  const wallet = new ethers.wallet(
    "0x9f9852dbd5026a213a35549e810f4a7268feb74cf7e1f65eca3a32dcde605d66",
    provider
  );

  const abi = fs.readFileSync("./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.abi", "utf-8");
  const binary = fs.readFileSync(
    "./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.bin",
    "utf-8"
  );

  const contractFactory = new ethers.ContractFactory(abi, binary, wallet);
  console.log("Deploying, please wait...");

  const contract = await contractFactory.deploy();
  const transactionReciept = await contract.deploymentTransaction.wait(1);
  console.log(`Your deployment receipt: ${contract.deploymentTransaction}`);
  console.log(`Your transaction receipt: ${transactionReciept}`);
  console.log(contract);
}

main()
  .then(() => process.exit(0))
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
  });

Can someone tell me where's the problem, I guess my JsonRpcProvider is able read but please let me know what should I do?

Thank You!!
