Ming Dahe was very prestigious in the village. After only saying a few words, the woman stopped. Although she no longer robbed her, she looked at the prey with more intense eyes.
Not just this woman, everyone in the yard had bright eyes, wanting to take the prey as their own.
Seeing this situation, the old man Hei warned in a low voice: "They are afraid that they are going to rob us hard, so you should be careful."
Huang Ying smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. If anyone dares to rob it, you have to take it away."
The six teams led by Blue Star have 20 people, all of whom have gone through hardships, have rich combat experience, and have good skills in all aspects. Huang Ying has great confidence in them.
Although there are many of these villagers, they are old and weak, so they are definitely no match for them in a real fight.
Besides, there is also the powerful Lan Yue who can fight in the first gear and fifth gear. If anyone dares to steal it, they will definitely regret it.
Lan Yue had already made all kinds of preparations since he dared to come back blatantly with the enviable prey.
The old man Hei had seen Lan Xing and others fighting on the road and knew that they were very powerful, but there was no way he could really fight with this yard full of people.
Seeing the worried look in the old man's eyes, Huang Ying comforted him: "Don't worry, these prey are just for exchange for beautiful stones."
Lin Yan walked to Lan Yue and said with a smile: "You are really foresighted. So many prey can be used to exchange for stones. How about it?"
She briefly explained what she had just seen in the copper mine, and asked Blue Star to take people to process the prey, cut it into small pieces of meat, and exchange it for pure-colored stones.
When Ming Dahe learned everything, he no longer knew what kind of expression he should face them with. What do these people think about exchanging edible meat for useless stones?
But no matter what, it is true that the villagers will benefit from it. Ming Dahe loudly told the villagers watching the excitement to go home quickly to find the purest and most beautiful stones and exchange them for meat.
After the people who crowded the yard were sure that they were not cheating, they dispersed in a hurry, for fear that they would run slowly and be taken advantage of by others.
After the people left, Ming Dahe asked the old man Hei in disbelief: "They really want to replace it with beautiful stones, right? I also have a few at home, I will bring them over to show them."
"Go find the stone quickly." Old Hei urged with a smile, "We are already chopping meat. If we are late, we may not be able to catch up."
Ming Dahe no longer hesitated and hurried back to the house to look for stones with his family.
Niu Wa looked at all this with confusion and asked the old man Hei, "What do they want the stone for? It's just beautiful, but it's not edible. It would be a big loss to exchange it for meat."
The old man Hei shook his head. He didn't know what Lin Yan and the others were thinking. These people are weird and unpredictable.
"It doesn't matter what they do, as long as they want it."
Not long after, someone came with a palm-sized green stone. The color was crystal clear. Lin Yan took a look at it and agreed to the exchange without saying a word, letting Blue Star cut two kilograms of meat for the other party.
After the first person, there will be a second one, and countless people hold beautiful stones in exchange for meat. Only two hares were left to eat, and the rest of the meat and fur were replaced before stopping.
After being busy until very late, everyone discussed and decided to let Blue Star take everyone in Team Six to hunt in the next few days, while the remaining people went to the copper mine to pick ore.
An agreement has been made with the people in Mingwan Village to exchange five pounds of salt for five days and let Lin Yan's five children go to the mine to pick stones.
Many people were crowded into one room, and there were no beds or kangs. They all slept on the floor.
With Old Man Hei and Niu Wa here, Lin Yan and the others couldn't say much, so they rested and slept, waiting for dawn to go to the mine immediately.
But Ming Dahe's family couldn't sleep. Except for the little baby, the whole family gathered in Ming Dahe's house.
The eldest son, Datou, was the first to lose his composure, "Those beautiful stones must have other uses. They must have an agenda. Should we just let them go?"
The eldest daughter, Daya, retorted: "Those stones are beautiful, but they are of no use if left alone. They might as well be used for food."
Erya agreed: "You're right, those stones have always been there, and we haven't found any use for them. Someone just wants to give them to them. We can make a profit by converting useless stones into food."
Er Du said in a sullen voice, "Many people in the village are starving. This is a good thing. If we object, those people will hate us to death."
"I didn't object, I just felt that something was wrong." Datou looked at Ming Dahe, "Dad, don't you think something is wrong?"
Ming Dahe thought for a while and said: "There is something wrong. Those stones must have other uses that we don't know about. Everyone in the village knows it, and there is no point in objecting now. Let's just leave it like this. Tomorrow everyone in the family will go Look for good-looking stones, as you have seen today. They only look at the color. As long as the stone you like can be exchanged for meat. That is real meat, we watched it being slaughtered with our own eyes."
Speaking of meat, Datou thought of those prey again, "That group of people is very powerful. They have so many prey in less than a day after going out. The knives in their hands are very sharp. It would be nice if they could change to a big knife."
Erya said: "Not only are knives powerful, but people are even more powerful. I personally saw a woman break such a thick piece of wood with a knife in her hand. She did it easily. Even if it were us, a tough guy wouldn't be able to do it." So neat and tidy. I think we can’t offend them, we have to make good friends with them.”
"Er Ya is right. Those people are all powerful. Those half-year-old children who dare to follow us to our village are also capable. It was the girl named Lan Yue who took people hunting. I heard the old man Hei said that she Very powerful, even stronger than those men."
Ming Dahe didn't believe it at first, but today Lan Yue proved it with his actions. Seeing those prey, he couldn't help but not believe it.
"No matter what you think in your heart, be polite in front of people and don't provoke them."
Everyone in the family nodded, and only he knew what he was thinking.
Ming Dahe said sternly: "Don't be greedy, we can't afford to offend those people." He gave Datou a focused look.
When outsiders come to the village, there are always people who want to bully them. This kind of thing has happened before. Ming Dahe didn't want to offend anyone, and there were many people in the village who wanted to seize the opportunity to exchange for meat.
Those five kilograms of salt are even better. Ming Dahe gave them to everyone who had a say in the village. After eating food with added salt, the food they usually eat has no taste.
He also wants to build a good relationship with them, and it would be better if they can cooperate for a long time in the future.
After listening to the old man Hei talking about Sun City, Ming Dahe had already made plans in his mind, and was planning to find a few people to follow him to expand his horizons.
When he woke up, Lin Yan looked around and saw that he was not the last one to get up today.
Lan Yue and the others are still there, only the old man Hei and Lan Xing are missing.
As soon as she sat up, Lan Yue and Huang Ying also got up.
Huang Ying scratched her messy hair with her hands and said vaguely: "After dinner, we will go to the mine."
"Well, bring all the tools. It's hard to dig the ore." Lin Yan was also tidying up his hair in a haphazard way. His yellow hair was scattered on his shoulders. It was much smoother than when he was a baby.
