survival in the wilderness

Chapter 226 Lively
After walking along the river for a while, we found a place where we could dock, and the boat stopped.

Ming Ertou said excitedly: "This is the Ming River. We have been playing in the river since we were young. Get off the boat from here and walk for a while to reach the village."

Lan Xing said happily: "How about it, isn't the waterway much more convenient? With Lin Yan here, we will definitely be able to find Mingwan Village. Now that we are at the door of our house, you can rest assured."

"Anxin, I'm completely at ease." Ming Ertou was a little embarrassed. A few days ago, he suspected that Lin Yan was pointing the wrong way and had no confidence in her. Now he was slapped in the face.

After the boat docked, Lin Yan and Lan Xing followed Ming Ertou into the village, and the rest stayed on board.

On board are the flour and hempseed oil they brought in exchange for ore, so how can we rest assured if no one is left to watch.

Walking into the village and seeing five people walking by, the villagers' eyes widened. If it wasn't for the fact that Ming Er's faces had not changed, the villagers would have suspected that they were strangers.

Ming Ertou smiled and greeted the people he met, and the villagers were sure that they were acquaintances.

No wonder people are like this, the clothes worn by Ming Ertou and three people were all bought in Sun City, and they are completely different at this time from when they left.

When Ming Dahe saw his son, he took several glances before he was sure, "Your boy is finally back. The cold season has not waited for you to come back, and we are afraid that you will freeze to death on the road."

"Father, I'm so smart, how could I do such a stupid thing."

Ming Erya reached out her hand to touch Ming Er's short sleeves, and said enviously: "This dress feels so good, it must be very comfortable to wear."

"You're right, it's made of linen, and cotton, which is better than this. I brought back three bolts of linen, and I'll give them to you later, and make your own clothes."

"Where is it, show me quickly." Erya couldn't wait, when she saw Lin Yan and the others for the first time, she was particularly jealous of their clothes.

Ming Dahe hurriedly said: "Erya, don't worry, let Ertou first talk about what Sun City looks like, what the people there eat, how do they live, are they the same as us?"

Mentioning this, Ming Ertou talked non-stop for more than half an hour, but he still couldn't get enough.If Lin Yan and Lan Xing hadn't caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye, he could have talked for days and nights.

"Father, Lin Yan and Lan Xing brought good things here, and they want to exchange green stones with us."

Ming Dahe didn't come back to his senses, he was still thinking about what Ertou said just now.He couldn't imagine what Sun City would look like, but everyone had no worries about food and drink, lived in a strong house against the cold, and wore good clothes. Is there really such a day?
"Father, it's business, what are you thinking?"

Ming Erya came back to her senses first, "Sun City is really as good as you said, you are not lying, are you?"

"How could I lie to others? I saw those with my own eyes. Besides, I didn't go there alone. You can ask the two of them. It must be better than what I said."

Erya asked, "You guys came back by boat. Where is the boat?"

"Stay by the river, and I'll show you later. That boat is so powerful, it can travel far, and it can load cargo. When you see it with your own eyes, you will know that what I said is true."

The Ming family, who were stunned for a while, gradually came to their senses, and they all wanted to see the big boat.

Ming Dahe couldn't care less about negotiating a deal with Lin Yan, he just wanted to make sure that what the two heads said was true.

Therefore, Lin Yan and Lan Xing had no choice but to go back to the river again.

This time, the No. [-] boat was on board. It was tall and mighty, docked in the water, and it was a great shock to the people of Mingwan who had never seen it before.

Ming Dahe was dumbfounded. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he was absolutely sure that the boat was real, and he must have felt that he was dreaming.

There was silence on the shore for a while, and gradually there were discussions.

Ming Ertou was surrounded by people, asking questions.

Seeing that more and more people gathered, Lin Yan asked Lan Xing to board the boat and moved the boat to a distance.

Some people are already eager to try it and insist on boarding the boat to take a look.

With so many people, there is no room for them to get on the boat, and no one can get on board.It's better to wait for the discussion to be completed, and send a few representatives to visit and take a look at the goods brought by the way.

Someone noticed something was wrong and hurriedly shouted: "How did the boat go?"

This cry woke up countless people, and Ming Er hurriedly looked for someone everywhere, and when he saw Lin Yan was still there, he hurried to her side.

"There are too many people. I'll take you out and go to my house first."

Lin Yan nodded and followed.

It's already very chaotic here, and there are so many people that we can't talk about things. Why don't we go to Ming Ertou's house and call the main people to talk again.

After waiting for more than an hour, Ertou found Ming Dahe back.

"Lin Yan, my father likes to join in the fun, so I kept you waiting for a long time."

"Ertou, tell her, can I go to the boat and have a look?"

Ming Dahe was very excited, he didn't know what it was like inside such a big boat.I watched it go far in the river with my own eyes, and there were quite a few people on the boat.Who wouldn't want a boat like this.

"Father, there are so many people. If you get on board, what should you do if others are going to board the boat? Let's calm down first, and call all the prestigious people in the village to discuss it together."

"Alright, go and call someone." Ming Dahe thought for a while, then looked at Lin Yan, "You brought things all the way here just for the green stone?"

"Yes, we exchange things with you for green stones. Don't worry, I bring good things. When the servants arrive, I will let you taste our pasta."

Good things always have to be tasted to know the authenticity. She believes that after eating, the people of Mingwan Village will be eager to trade.

After a while, Lan Xing also arrived with two people, one of whom was a part-time cook on board.The military department now trains personnel and also pays attention to multi-faceted development. In addition to self-training, some of them are good at carpentry, and some are good at cooking.

Ming Dahe enthusiastically said: "Can you show me the things here first?"

Lan Xing glanced at Lin Yan with questioning eyes.

Lin Yan shook his head with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry, wait for people to watch together. It will definitely bring you a surprise."

"Is there any salt?" Since he had salt for seasoning, Ming Dahe no longer liked tasteless food, but unfortunately he had already eaten all the salt he bought.

"Of course there are. I knew you needed them, so I brought some here."

This time, I came prepared and brought enough goods.There is almost everything for food and use.

Lin Yan brought some needles and threads for making clothes, especially the cloth.Although the number is small, the variety is complete.

Sitting is fine, Lin Yan simply asked Lan Xing to take out the scale he brought, and taught Ming Dahe and the others how to use it.

In a fair trade, measurement matters.Lin Yan never thought of taking advantage of others, and based on integrity, he wanted to lay a solid foundation for the future.

Besides, Ming Ertou and the others have traveled from Sun City, and they know the price very well, and defrauding people will only cause big trouble for themselves.

Ming Dahe hasn't figured out the use of scales yet. After all, arithmetic and symbols are involved, and he has to learn from the beginning. He is too old to keep up with the reaction.

Others arrived one after another and joined in the study.
