Parents are busy farming

"Look!" Seeing the officer's interest, Ye Zifen quickly said, "This is our newly made windmill. The wind can drive the blades to rotate."

After the master finished translating, a hint of surprise flashed in the officer's eyes, and he walked to the windmill and observed it carefully.

He sighed, "Oh? Really?"

The master smiled and explained, "Yes, sir, as long as there is wind, this windmill can automatically rotate. It is very convenient. And we can also adjust the speed by changing the angle of the fan blades."

After hearing what the master said, the officer couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's amazing! I have never seen anything like this."

He reached out and gently touched the windmill's blades, feeling the force of the wind.

Then he looked up at his surroundings, as if thinking about how to apply this technology to his island.

Seeing how interested he was, Ye Zifen continued, "In fact, we have other interesting inventions, such as this one..."

As she spoke, she signaled the masters to take out the other items and show them to the officer.

While listening to Ye Zifen's introduction, the officer carefully observed each exhibit and exclaimed in amazement from time to time.

He was obviously full of interest and curiosity about these new gadgets.

However, Ye Zifen did not intend to display all of her inventions.

Because she knew that some inventions might cause unnecessary trouble or be imitated by others.

So she only selected some inventions that were relatively safe and would not pose a threat to them for display.

After introducing the windmill, Ye Zifen found that the officer's attention was still focused on the windmill, as if he had a special liking for it.

So she decided to introduce the uses and advantages of windmills in more detail.

"Sir, do you know that this windmill can not only be used to blow wind, but also to irrigate farmland. Of course, you don't lack water here, but it can be used to pound rice. If your country can use this windmill on a large scale, it will greatly improve production efficiency and improve people's living standards."

Ye Zifen explained to the officer with a smile.

After hearing this, the officer's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have imagined the scene of windmills playing a role in his country.

He excitedly shook Ye Zifen's hand and said, "Ms. Ye, your inventions are really great! I believe they will bring great help to my country."

After hearing what he meant, Ye Zifen smiled modestly and said, "Thank you for your compliment, sir. We hope to share these inventions with more countries and jointly promote the progress of human society."

As the communication deepened, the relationship between Ye Zifen and the officer became more and more harmonious.

The caravan members and fishermen, who were originally nervous, gradually relaxed and showed happy smiles on their faces.

Finally, they no longer had to worry about not being able to exchange the goods they brought.

The whole scene was filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

After all, if these windmills could not be exchanged, they would have no space to load grain.

"How many of these did you bring this time?" the officer pointed at the windmill and asked the master curiously.

After hearing the master's answer, Ye Zifen's eyes flashed with apology, and then she looked at the officer sincerely and said, "I'm really sorry, we only brought one this time, just to show it first. We originally planned to bring a few more next time if you like it. And we can also let our craftsmen come to make it on the spot, so that you can use it right away."

Sure enough, after Ye Zifen's words were conveyed to the superior through the master, he nodded repeatedly to show his agreement and proposed to leave the windmill on the ship directly to him.

He looked at Ye Zifen with anticipation, as if he had an unspeakable desire.

However, Ye Zifen didn't know what he really thought, but she had originally planned to use these windmills to exchange for food, so she naturally agreed to his request.

This person actually wanted to present this windmill to his eldest brother, hoping to convince him to take himself and his family to Daxia!

He thought that as long as he put a windmill in front of the house, he could bring wind into the house. The place where they lived was ventilated on all sides, and whenever it rained, the house would become very damp.

Although the ordinary people here have long been accustomed to it, he once enjoyed a superior environment in the imperial palace on the mainland, and now even if he lives in the best house on the island, he still finds it difficult to adapt.

Despite this, he never thought of replacing his brother. He just wanted to go to a rich place to broaden his horizons, and Daxia was the ideal place in his mind.

Since there was only one windmill, the officer had to choose some other gifts. After all, he still had a lot of silver, which would be useless to keep, so he might as well exchange it for more items.

After the officer had chosen his things, he had no intention of leaving, but instead asked to stay on the boat for one night.

This made Ye Zifen and others feel helpless, but it was difficult to refuse, after all, they were guests.

So they decided to let everyone come to the deck to rest, and the old captain kept a close eye on the weather changes, fearing that a strong wind would blow away the tents.

Finally, the sky gradually brightened. Ye Zifen didn't intend to waste any more time. She immediately asked people to start carrying the things that the commander liked to ashore.

At the same time, the officer also ordered the people on the island to send food to the seaside.

Not all residents on the island had seen their ships before. When they followed to deliver food, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw such a luxurious ship.

Some people were originally worried that they would face hunger after their superiors replaced all the food.

But in fact, they themselves are unwilling to eat the stale rice.

After exchanging some of the old rice for other items last time, they were able to eat fresh rice, which was simply a blessing.

Now, they have no complaints about this exchange, and some are even grateful.

They just don’t know whether the superiors will share some of the things they got in exchange with them. Just like travelers in the desert longing for an oasis, they are full of expectations for these things.

After the transaction was completed on the shore, the officer looked at the things placed on the shore and was very satisfied.

He warmly invited Ye Zifen and other businessmen to continue visiting the island and expressed his willingness to play the role of host.

However, Ye Zifen and others politely declined.

Because their time is very tight and there are many things to deal with.

The officer guarding the people on the island smiled and said, "You are welcome to come here often in the future. You can also bring more advanced items. We will definitely give you a fair and reasonable price and will never treat you unfairly."

Ye Zifen gladly accepted the invitation and said very officially that she would definitely come again if she had the chance.
