Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

"Ahem... I've gone off topic. I'd better take a look at these wood carvings first. Money is a bit tight for me lately." Shi Anan coughed unnaturally and suppressed the romantic thoughts in her heart. She is a career person now and cannot fall in love, let alone fall in love too early.

She did not forget that her original body still had more than a year to go before she reached the age of marriage.

"Yeah." Xiao Yi responded softly, lowering his eyes to hide the nervous beating of his heart.

When the wooden box was opened, it was filled with all kinds of carefully carved wooden pendants or ornaments, which were better than those carved on the ship before, and naturally more expensive.

Shi Anan kept a few that she liked and sold the rest to the system. After a while, the system currency rose to 1000 silver coins.

She looked at the glass manufacturing method that could be exchanged at any time and resisted the urge to buy it. No, she couldn't exchange it now.

She only had 1000 silver coins. After what happened in Changle Village, she deeply felt how important it was to save some money. If she had 1000 silver coins at that time, she could have saved more than a dozen lives.

Moreover, she still has a lot of things to be developed. Even if she switches to the glass manufacturing method now, she does not have extra manpower to be responsible for the research and development, so she should put the money aside for now.

When Xiao Yi saw Shi An'an waved her hand, only a few wood carvings were left in the box. He asked curiously, "What's wrong? Don't you like these?"

Shi Anan came back to her senses and found that Xiao Yi was looking seriously at the wood carvings that she had specially kept. It seemed that as long as she said she didn't like them, he would plan to rework them for her.

"No, no, I really like these. It's because I like them that I can't bear to give them to the gods. I want to keep them for myself!" Shi Anan waved her hands frantically.

Xiao Yi's eyes softened for a moment: "If you like, I'll do it for you again. Aren't you short of money?"

"I'm short of money, so I don't mind having these. I like them so I'll keep them." Shi Anan said confidently.

"Yeah." When Xiao Yi heard Shi Anan say that he liked the wood carvings he made, he raised his lips slightly with a smile in his eyes.

"But my dear, can you make this kind of mechanical bird? The price is higher!" Shi Anan took out the mechanical bird that she had always treasured. The price of ten wooden sculptures might not be as much as this kind of bird with a mechanism that can fly. She has always liked it, and she was reluctant to sell it to the system because she couldn't find a substitute.

Shi Anan was so focused on the mechanical bird that she completely forgot how she got the bird. She also didn't notice that Xiao Yi's eyes suddenly froze when he saw the bird.

"Where did you get this?" Xiao Yi asked in a low and hoarse voice with a hint of uncertainty. If he was not mistaken, it seemed that he had done this?

"Ah?" Shi Anan came back to her senses after hearing Xiao Yi's question, and then she suddenly remembered where she got the mechanical bird in her hand from... Oh no, she's exposed!

"Um, this, that..." Shi Anan didn't know how to explain. She was so busy recently that her brain became stupid. How could she show the things she secretly took directly to the owner of the things? What's the difference between this and her going to Xiao Yi and saying, I have been to your house and raided your warehouse? ?

"If I'm not mistaken, this looks like something I did?" And it was placed in his room.

"Well, you did it..." Shi Anan said dejectedly, not daring to look up at Xiao Yi's expression.

"You've been to the Duke of Wei's mansion? Have you been to my room?" Xiao Yi asked in disbelief. Didn't she know that everyone wanted to cut off all ties with their family after they fell into trouble? How dare she? How dare she go to their house?

Shi Anan secretly looked up at Xiao Yi's expression and found that he was still expressionless as before, and she couldn't tell whether he was angry or not.

Forget it, this was her fault in the first place. It’s always right to admit the mistake first. If Xiao Yi considers their friendship in sharing the hardships together, he shouldn’t blame her...right?

"I'm sorry, I have been to your house. A while ago, I suddenly found a secret passage where I live that leads directly to your room. There was no one in your house at that time. I saw that this mechanical bird was made so delicately, and I thought that if you were exiled, these things might be destroyed by someone, so I took it away." She still didn't dare to say that she also raided their storehouse.

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and pointed out, "You didn't just take this, did you?"

Why is this little beauty suddenly so smart?

"Well... I took all the models in your room, and then I also got some things from your storeroom. But I didn't take everything, and I also gave them to you on the way. I will return your model to you later!" Shi Anan explained hurriedly.

Seeing her nervous and flustered appearance, Xiao Yi smiled secretly, then returned to his expressionless look and said in a serious tone, "So you knew that these disasters would happen?"

She must have received instructions from the gods at that time, otherwise, what did she use to carry these things away?

In fact, Xiao Yi didn't mean to blame her. After their family fell into trouble, all the things in the house would be confiscated. Just as she said, except for her who would like the handicrafts he made, to others they might just be a pile of garbage and they wouldn't know where they would be thrown away.

It would be better if Shi Anan took it than if someone else took it. At least she would take good care of these things, and I would be grateful to her.

As for the supplies in the warehouse, Xiao Yi didn't care much about these material things, and Shi Anan saved them, so he wouldn't feel sorry even if all the supplies in the warehouse were given to her.

Xiao Yi's inner thoughts flashed through his mind, but Shi Anan looked at him with wide eyes after hearing his words. Could he guess this?

Seeing Shi Anan's expression, Xiao Yi knew that his guess was correct. However, her expression of staring at him blankly was really funny.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but laughed softly after all. His already stunning face suddenly changed from expressionless to full of smiles. Even the knowledgeable Shi Anan was immediately attracted by that lively face.

The little beauty looks so pretty when she smiles, but... "You're teasing me!"

Shi Anan said angrily, she had been worrying for a long time, wondering if he was very angry, but he was actually teasing her, when did this old-fashioned boy become so bad-tempered!

Xiao Yi laughed even louder and admitted straightforwardly, "Yeah."

Seeing Shi Anan's fury, Xiao Yi finally restrained his laughter a little, but he couldn't help but touch her furry head to smooth her hair, then said softly with a smile in his eyes: "I don't blame you, those things are yours if you take them, if you still want them, I'll make a few more for you some other day."

Xiao Yi didn't blame her and coaxed her so gently. It's over, it's over, Shi Anan, wake up!

Shi Anan shook her head, dodged his hand, and said uncomfortably: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go to the terraced fields and find someone to try out these farming tools."

Then, without waiting for Xiao Yi to say anything, he ran out in panic.

But she ran into Ruan and Liu at the door again. Liu called out to Shi An An in surprise, "Sister An, where are you going in such a hurry? And why is your face so red?"

"Ah, it's okay, I'm just hot from running." Shi An'an braked the car and replied, then slipped away quickly, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: "Mom, Aunt Ruan, Xiao Yi made three farming tools, I'm anxious to find someone to test the effect, I'm leaving first!"

"Why is this girl so impatient?" Liu complained.

Ruan glanced at Xiao Yi's room, smiled and said nothing.

Shi Anan calmed down only after she ran out of the yard. The atmosphere just now was really strange and not like her usual style.

However, her emotions always came and went quickly, and she soon forgot what had just happened.

She walked to the terraced fields and asked a few villagers to go to her yard to drag the three farming tools, and also asked someone to bring a cow.

The rest of the villagers looked at her curiously, not knowing what she was going to do.

Shi Anan's eyes quickly swept across the terraced fields that had already taken shape, and she selected a test field. She said to everyone, "I got three new things today that can improve farming efficiency. I'll try them out today. If they work, we can be more efficient in clearing land later!"

The villagers started to make a fuss. How could the efficiency of farming be improved?
