Only a fool would disagree with things like exchanging things for what everyone needs.
Wen Xian believed that both Zhu Qing and she had their own reservations, so it wouldn't hurt to test things out first.
After all, she believed that Zhu Qing would not miss the good opportunity to exchange for charcoal. Of course, she would not miss the opportunity to exchange for cotton-padded clothes and quilts.
As expected, Zhu Qing thought for a while and then said: "These materials are indeed too small to exchange for a thousand kilograms of charcoal. So, let's exchange half of it first. Let's take this half of the charcoal back to Sun Island first, and then come back in two days with other materials?"
I originally planned that this would be my last trip to sea this year, but Charcoal was attractive enough, so it wouldn’t hurt to make another trip.
However, Zhu Li stopped him and said: "No, it will be difficult to go to sea again before the year."
As a blessing director, in addition to offering sacrifices and praying for blessings, he also has the responsibility of divination.
Before setting off, she had divined and the trip went smoothly. But after this trip, I will not be able to go to sea again until the end of the year.
The fisherman uncle spoke again: "Master Zhu Si is right, Young Master Qing can no longer risk going to sea."
In order to ensure the safety of Mr. Si, they originally disapproved of this trip to sea. For this reason, Mr. Zhu Si also made a special trip to persuade them by divination.
But if they want to risk going to sea again, they firmly disagree.
Zhu Qing frowned slightly and said: "It's just a day's flight, it's nothing."
"No." Zhu Li shook his head and said, "There are still three sets of my warm clothes in the cabin. Xiaohe, go and exchange them."
"no."
"Master Zhu Si, you absolutely must not do this."
"My lord, no."
As soon as Zhu Li finished speaking, several voices of resistance came at the same time.
The maid named Xiao He bent down and said, "Your Majesty has a distinguished status, this method is inappropriate."
Zhu Si's status is second only to Poseidon. Just like it is impossible to exchange Poseidon's things, they cannot exchange Lord Zhu Si's things.
Xiao He was the maid who had scolded Sheng Lian'er earlier. Her words made Wen Xian once again feel Zhu Si's status in Sun Island.
She said at the right time: "We can't ask for Mr. Zhu Si's clothes. In this way, in addition to the washed clothes in the rattan basket, if there are any unwashed ones, they can be exchanged. But it's just a matter of washing and drying. We can Wash yourself.
Furthermore, if you have axes, nails, etc., you can also exchange them together. I won’t embarrass you either, it doesn’t matter how much you have. "
Zhu Qingwei asked: "How do you get rid of dirty old clothes?"
He is also a decent person, how can he exchange dirty clothes.
Wen Xian chuckled lightly and said: "When you go out, you don't have to pay attention to those things. It's not personal clothing, so why not."
You can't let people perform a seawater laundry on the spot.
Besides, residents living on these islands do not have the habit of using sea water for washing. They all dug wells or used water from mountain streams to wash.
After a moment of stalemate, Zhu Qing's desire for charcoal overcame his shame, and he shamelessly discussed with Zhu Li's maid, and brought out two more sets of cotton-padded jackets.
He also gritted his teeth and added the new fox fur he made this year, which is considered the most valuable piece among them. Then, he found a bag of nails and an ax and came out.
Scattered new things, plus those previously scattered on the ground, made up a cane basket.
Wen Xian's eyes lit up when she saw the fox fur coat. Although it was a men's style, she didn't mind as it kept warm.
She decided to send them more charcoal later so as not to take advantage of them.
Wen Xian and Sheng Lian'er couldn't move three rattan baskets and several bags of grain, so Zhu Qing volunteered to ask someone to help move them together.
There were five men among them, and except for him, they were all good at hard work. Of course, he's not bad either.
Wen Xian was relaxed and nodded in agreement.
However, she didn't take anyone to the cave, and just asked them to wait fifty meters away.
Zhu Qing understood Wen Xian's vigilance.
He thought Wen Xian and Sheng Lian'er would slowly carry the supplies into the cave with rattan basket after rattan basket.
Unexpectedly, the two girls each picked up a rattan basket and walked easily to the cave.
After they walked away, the uncle took a breath and exclaimed: "These two girls are really strong."
You should know that cotton-padded clothes and quilts are very heavy. But Wen Xian and the others were not only able to move it, but they also looked very relaxed.
Especially the little girl who didn't know much about talking. There were two bags of about fifty kilograms of grain on top of the rattan basket she moved.
It would have been difficult for men like them to move it.
The uncle sighed again: "I think if the rattan basket couldn't hold it, the girl could add two more bags of grain."
Zhu Qing looked at the two people's backs and narrowed his eyes slightly: "If you don't have any skills, you won't survive on this island. Look at the leather coat that girl is wearing, it's wild boar skin."
Zhu Li nodded in agreement.
On the other side, as soon as Wen Xian and Sheng Lian'er, who were carrying two rattan baskets, arrived at the door, the door opened immediately, welcomed them in and then closed it immediately.
Seeing the things they moved, Zheng Rou glared and said, "Madam went to rob? Why are there so many things?"
Cotton clothes and quilts, is it possible that the people on the boat failed to defeat Madam and Lian'er and were robbed?
Hu Ke'er, who was in charge of guarding the door, said angrily: "Have you ever seen a robbery and then brought the victim back?"
She was responsible for guarding the door and had already seen what was going on outside through the crack in the door. Looking from a distance, there were eight people waiting outside the cave.
If it weren't for Wen Xian's instructions, she would have run out to help.
Zheng Rou suddenly said: "Did Madam buy it with Golden Leaf?"
If they hadn't robbed them, they had to buy them. They only had the two gold leaves hidden in Zhou Hui's bag.
"Of course not." Sheng Lian'er put down the rattan basket with a bang, and then said excitedly, "We exchanged it for charcoal. This is only half. There are still some things outside. We will move them back later."
Wen Xian put down the rattan basket with the help of Xia Zhi, and then took out a few sacks from the rattan basket and handed them to them: "Don't be stunned, put the charcoal on them quickly, and let them leave early.
A total of one thousand kilograms of charcoal was exchanged and two rattan baskets were filled as gifts to them. Lian'er and I will go out later, and you stay in the cave and don't come forward. "
One sack can hold about one hundred kilograms of charcoal. Zhu Qing gave him ten sacks, which was about one thousand kilograms.
The rattan basket can hold one hundred kilograms of charcoal no matter how it is designed, so it comes with two hundred kilograms as a bonus.
Hu Ke'er hesitated and said, "But if we give it away, we won't have much charcoal left."
Weighing one thousand two hundred kilograms, the charcoal in the cave must be almost completely filled.
Wen Xian waved her hands and said: "Leave a week's supply and give the rest to them. I'm afraid they'll ask for help from others in the future. We don't have to worry about the cotton clothes and quilts now. We can burn the charcoal ourselves. We'll hurry up after the people leave." Just use some time to burn it out."
They can't stay on a desert island forever. If they want to leave the island in the future, they may have to rely on people like Sun Island.
Opportunities are coming to your doorstep, and there’s nothing wrong with planning ahead.
