Parents are busy farming

Chapter 1356: Plenty of Food

The person sitting in the middle looked at this man with a serious face, and his eyes revealed an unconcealable disappointment.

However, he did not make any other movements, but just sat quietly on the ground and recounted in detail everything he had experienced during this outing from beginning to end.

Then, he unbuttoned his shirt without hesitation and showed the wound on his chest to everyone present without reservation.

There was no sign of pain on his face because of the wound, as if the wound was not on him but on someone else.

This action caused shock and anger among everyone present.

For a moment, the whole house was in an uproar, people were talking about it, some expressed disbelief, while others were terrified.

But the man was not afraid at all, he put his clothes in order.

He turned around and said to the boss sitting in the middle: "Do you remember that we once intercepted an iron lump from a caravan? We tried it and found it to be quite powerful. Now is the time to use it! Otherwise, as that woman said, in the future, whenever we see their flags, we will have to give way and never dare to intercept them again."

The man's attitude was firm, and he showed no intention of begging for mercy or admitting his mistakes.

His words and actions were surprising, as if he didn't care about the consequences he might face.

Unlike the others, he showed no sign of giving in or compromising.

The person sitting in the middle heaved a sigh of relief, thought for a while and said, "It's up to you, but this is your last chance."

Then he waved to everyone and asked them to go out, and waved to the young girls who had been waiting outside to come in.

These girls were all smiling and some even flirted with the people leaving.

Those people who were filled with righteous indignation just now immediately revealed lustful eyes, but no one dared to do anything.

The person who needed to recover did not do so immediately, but instead asked his men to observe the situation at sea and not allow any ship to pass.

Although he was frightened today, he was not scared because they still had the iron lump.

He got that thing from a yellow-haired merchant caravan eleven years ago. He didn't know how to use it at first. Later, several people died and two big black balls were wasted before he figured it out. Now they still have five big balls left.

Ye Zifen and his companions sailed on the sea for more than half a month. The journey was much quieter and they did not encounter any pirates again.

When they finally arrived at the island where the caravan had visited last year, the local people were particularly enthusiastic about the familiar faces of Mu Hongzhou and others.

As soon as they got off the boat, they were led by the locals to meet the highest-ranking official there.

With the experience from last time, Ye Zifen wisely chose to remain silent. He let the people in the caravan walk in front, while he quietly followed at the end of the team, carefully observing the surrounding environment.

The people here dress in a style very different from that of Daxia. Their clothes expose their legs and abdomen, and their skin is slightly dark.

In contrast, the air here is more humid and hot, with lush rice growing on both sides of the road.

According to the caravan members, the reason why they can harvest a lot of grain here is because they can grow three crops of rice every year, but the taste is not as good as the rice from Daxia.

However, the situation is so difficult nowadays, what is there to complain about?

As long as the people of Daxia can fill their stomachs, it is enough. It will not be too late to consider other issues after the drought is over.

Ye Zifen looked at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "The people here live such an easy life!"

It turns out that their farmland does not need watering at all because rain will naturally fall from the sky to nourish the crops.

In just half a day, it rained twice, which saved a lot of effort for growing rice.

Then Ye Zifen realized that the windmill she brought might be of no use.

Still, she noticed something interesting.

The land here is very flat, similar to the land in her hometown, but the transportation here is not well developed. The road is narrow and winding, like a goat path. If you are not used to walking, it is easy to fall into the fields next to you.

Moreover, people here travel on foot, and there is not even a car to be seen. All goods are transported by manpower, so in the hot weather, everyone is sweating.

This may be why the clothing style here is so bold.

In addition, every time you walk a distance, you will see a house supported by several pillars and not touching the ground.

The materials used to build the houses are wood or bamboo. Looking at those houses, they are not very tall. I wonder how people live in them.

Ye Zifen looked around and after walking for half a day, she finally arrived at where their leader was.

After all, it is where powerful people live. Different from the houses seen on the roadside, this house is much bigger, and there are some beautiful stones inlaid on the top of the house.

The ground was paved with smooth stone slabs, spotless but a little wet.

After the caravan members sat down, Ye Zifen sat next to the master who could translate.

He introduced Ye Zifen, "This is the gentleman we want to meet."

Ye Zifen stood up, bowed and said, "Hello, sir."

The adult smiled and nodded, motioning him to sit down.

Then the adult began to talk to her. He spoke very quickly and Ye Zifen could not understand what he was saying at all.

However, judging from his expression and tone, we can probably guess something.

Ye Zifen could only sit aside and listen quietly.

After a while, the man stopped talking, and the master turned to Ye Zifen and said, "This gentleman wants to know what you do?"

Ye Zifen quickly replied: "I am a businessman. I came to your country this time to find out what we have and what people here need."

After listening to Ye Zifen's words, the adult nodded and then said something else.

It probably means that they really like their fabrics and various handmade items.

As he spoke, he took out the porcelain, jewelry, umbrellas and other daily necessities that Zhang Gaoyi and his friends had brought last time.

He also asked Ye Zifen whether they had brought these things this time. He liked their things very much and thought that Daxia’s things were great and the people of Daxia were very smart.

Ye Zifen nodded to indicate that they had these things, and then asked directly: "We brought some things this time and wanted to exchange them for some food with you. I wonder if you have much food here."

After hearing Ye Zifen's words, the man's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
