Chapter 1713 Heaven is jealous of talents 75
Zhang Laoliu said that she could leave early tomorrow morning, which shows that she insisted on waiting until her classmates came back, so she had no choice but to give up.Three days later, he came early to collect the kelp and came back to pick them up.

After Xi Ning asked the price of miscellaneous grain flour, he took out [-] yuan and asked Zhang Laoliu to bring [-] catties of miscellaneous grain flour.

Miscellaneous grain noodles are not expensive, only three yuan a catty.All kinds of miscellaneous grains that people in the city don't eat much, such as bran, corn, beans, etc., are mixed together and ground into noodles.

"Sure enough, you are a good person." After Zhang Laoliu took the money and counted it, he rolled it into a strip, took off his hat, and stuffed the money into the inside of the hat: "Don't worry, I will definitely buy it."

After finishing what should be done, he drove the tractor and left first.

After the translation by the villagers who understand the common language, everyone in the village nodded.

However, Park's parents showed anxiety and sadness, saying that there was no need to spend money, and they had enough to eat.

"Is it enough?" I couldn't help but looked around again.

All the hanging dried kelp had been taken away, and some fresh kelp had been hung up, and the villagers who were not enough had gone to the sea not far away to fish.Another wave went fishing with javelins and simple small nets.

With this kind of fishing method, it takes half a day to insert or catch one in the fishing net, so don't think about catching more fish.

The villagers explained very directly: "If there is not enough food, you can catch fish. If you can't catch fish, there are also kelp and coconuts. It is impossible to support us all the time, so it is better not to send too many things."

Xining smiled: "Understood, I won't buy it in the future. Since it has been ordered, it is only one hundred catties of miscellaneous grains and flour, and four or five catties per household will be gone."

Four or five catties of noodles, one catty a day, is enough for four or five days.

After hearing the translation, the villagers were relieved.

Seeing the relieved faces of the villagers, Hu Liangming couldn't understand: "Boss, why don't they want it? They still look unhappy."

Jiang Debin responded: "That's how they are. They will accept a small amount of things. If they are too much, they will refuse. If they can't refuse, they will try their best to find something in exchange, and they will not accept it easily."

"But I was so happy to receive the clothes just now, and the whole village happily gathered together to pick them out." Clothes are fine, but why not food.

Xi Ning analyzed: "Those are old clothes, which are superfluous and unnecessary. But food is different, and it needs to be bought with money. Their thinking is different from ours, and they don't ask for too much. You didn't notice that they dried kelp , no dried fish?”

The eyes of the villagers who knew the common language suddenly lit up: "The fish are alive and swim freely in the sea. They died for us to survive. How can we kill them instead of eating them immediately. Many people Call us fools, only you really understand us."

Kelp is considered to be a plant that has no feeling and will grow quickly, so it can be dried and stored.

This kind of Buddhist system only meets the basic needs of survival, and does not ask too much from other beings. They deserve to be poor.

But this is the diversity of thought that creates different customs.Every custom has been tempered, added and subtracted for thousands of years, and finally formed a certain pattern.

Xining smiled, picked up the coconut, and drank a few more mouthfuls of coconut juice through the reed tube.

After the coconut milk is finished, the villagers scrape out the coconut meat in the coconut, chop it up, add some miscellaneous grain powder, and roast it fragrant to make coconut cakes.Now they use knives, whereas previously they were said to be stone-polished tools.

The empty coconut shells are put aside first, and then they can be used as containers for things, and can also be processed into plates, handicrafts, and even jewelry hanging around their necks.

After eating, it was a little dark.

The villagers invited them to take a bath. There is a bathhouse here, but it is natural. It is divided into two places for men and women, separated by many roads.

It is a small pond, divided into upper and lower layers, surrounded by rocks transported from the sea.Those rocks are polished so smooth that they should have a bit of history.

Xi Ning squatted down, scooped up some water, tasted it, it was fresh water.In the center of the first layer of the pond, bubbles popped up from time to time, which should be the seeping groundwater.

There is not much water coming out of the ground, and the water quality is very clear.If it is used to irrigate the land, it may not be enough to irrigate an acre, and it is only enough for basic living needs.

Several women were already working by the water, and some stood on the first higher level, scooping water into buckets with spoons made of coconut shells.

If there is too much water on the first floor, it will flow to the lower second floor. There are two female villagers, one is taking a bath in the water, and the other is wiping herself with a cloth.

Beside the pond, there are some artificially piled stones. The stones are covered with cloth, and some dried kelp is strung together into knots.It should be a small altar.

The villagers probably think that the pond is also a gift from heaven, so respect and protect it like a god.

There was no soap either, so they just scrubbed.Sea water is difficult to wash off, no wonder their skin is wrinkled.

Xi Ning didn't need soap either. The water volume is so clear and the water volume is small. If soap is used, about half of the water in the pond is dedicated to bathing, but it will be useless.

After washing, I feel refreshed immediately.When I went back, all the fresh kelp had been hung up, and the villagers were putting up the guardrails.

It was a fence made of sharpened branches. It was pulled up and placed on a wooden support, with the sharp point facing outside, enclosing the entire village.

The wood also looked a bit old, Xining reached out and squeezed it, and it didn't take much effort to crush it.

It's all weathered, and it's useless!But some are just cut and added.

The villagers explained: "This is to prevent foxes and wild dogs from outside. They think they are strong when they see it. If there are people watching at night, they will not break in."

Well, it is enough to guard against these small beasts. Fortunately, there are no large animals here. Otherwise, if there is a wild boar, this thing will fall apart immediately.

The largest and best "house" in the village was given to them.In fact, there is no need for a house, the straw mats are spread on the ground, and even the mats are not needed, just lie on the sand and sleep.

There are no scorpions and poisonous snakes here, at most a few crabs that have gone the wrong way.

Crabs are all foraging on the coast and will not easily run to human places.Although they all have thick skin and not much meat, they annoyed humans and smashed them into pieces and threw them into the sea to feed the fish.

There are indeed vigils at night, and the number of torches lit proves how many vigils there are.There are four vigils in total, and the villagers will take turns to replace them.

Several people didn't want to lie in the house, they all lay on the mat outside.The night sky by the seaside is quite beautiful at night. Who would lie on the ground and watch it when we were in Donghai Academy? This is a good time to appreciate it.

Looking at the night sky, Hu Liangming sighed: "I didn't expect such a place to exist. The simplicity and nature make people respect."

"What kind of respect!" Jiang Debin retorted: "From ancient times to the present, it's not that the ancient lords and the current warlords never thought of being included in the territory. They are too poor, and it is useless to ask for it."
