Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 780 Got it
"This place is still as empty as ever." Li Huacai looked around and sighed.

"It was winter when I came here last time. Even though it's spring break now, it's already around seven or eight o'clock in the evening. It's normal that there aren't many people around." Xia Zhi walked beside him, looking at the dark sea. He Tiantian, while taking two steps, turned back to look at the fire in the camp, still worried about Xia Meng and Yamamoto Ryoko staying there.

"Xia Zhijun, are you still worried about that?" Shiraishi Rika seemed more relaxed: "Ryoko is no longer a child, and if it is Manager Imaizumi, I think Manager Imaizumi already knows that we are back here when we tell the front desk clerk. There is a barbecue at the beach nearby. Judging from the people I have met so far who work for the Shiraishi family and treat me as the eldest lady, she should also have people arranged around here as a guarantee. After all, nothing can happen to me. "

"It's amazing."

"Don't look at me like this, I am still self-aware of my identity." Shiraishi Lihua smiled, but judging from her smile, she did not have any trouble with this identity.

"What good luck~" Tachibana Aya suddenly bent down and picked up something from the beach. When she stood up, Xia Zhi barely saw that it should be a shell: "Sure enough, it is easy to encounter good things when you come to the beach. Yeah. This shell is so beautiful."

Tachibana Aya held her up and waved it in front of Natsuki and Shiraishi Rika: "How about it, it looks good! But I won't give this to you."

"Does Tachibana-san like to collect shells?" Shiraishi Rika was a little curious. This was her first time coming to the beach with Tachibana Aya.Although it was only the second time for Xia Zhi to come together, Xia Zhi learned about Tachibana Aya more deeply than expected when they came together last time, and at least he got more personal information.

"I like it. The shells are beautiful, and you can pick them up at the beach without anyone caring about them. If you collect one or two, you can take them back for decoration. If you collect a lot, you can also use them to make bracelets or pendants. It can be put in the car." Tachibana looked up and down at the shell in her hand.

"What about Xia Zhijun, do you also like to collect shells?"

"Although I won't take the initiative to do it, I don't hate it either." Xia Zhi thought for a while: "In ancient China, shells were used as currency. If you hate shells, you will always feel that you have nothing to do with wealth in this life. …”

"Is there any other explanation?" Xia Zhi could see that Bai Shilihua was very curious, so she nodded.

“Because at the beginning, no one thought that it was necessary to cast a special medium to serve as currency, or there were still many problems in terms of technology and usage, and there was no perfect casting technology at the time, so we just used Natural products such as shells were used as currency. I don’t know when the artificially minted currency was minted much later. In other countries, I don’t know. As for China, I remember that commodity exchange increased in the middle or late Shang Dynasty. The quantity and face value of shells could no longer meet people's daily needs, so copper coins were used to replace the shells. You see..." Xia Zhi knelt down and drew on the ground with his fingers: "This is The word '财' in Chinese means property. It is the word 'earn', which means making money. It is 'expensive' and 'cheap'. The meanings of expensive and cheap have the word "bei" in it. The ancient word "bei" The characters represent money-related things and activities, and these characters are now simplified from ancient hieroglyphics."

"What does 'cheap' mean?" These two are girls whose brainpower has exceeded the standard after trying to learn Chinese on their own. Although Tachibana Aya's learning channels are really worrying, they still have some Chinese skills. foundation.

Xia Zhi has been teaching the two of them to learn Chinese for who knows how long, and today he finally finished it.

"There is a word in Chinese called 'cheap selling', which basically means selling high-priced goods at a low price, like selling gold at the price of cabbage. It is the word corresponding to 'expensive'."

"But it seems to have other meanings." Tachibana Aya held her chin and recalled: "I remember I saw a joke some time ago, saying that there were two snakes, a poisonous snake, a python or something, they The topic of predators is discussed, and then the venomous snake scolds the python, saying that it is wrapped around someone else's body and that it is despicable. What does this mean?"

……

Xia Zhi stood up and clapped his hands: "This is another meaning extended from the meaning of the word. The Chinese system is quite complicated. It is a bit difficult for me to explain this clearly, and you may not be able to understand it if you say it. I understand. Basically, it’s an excerpt from a TV series that is widely circulated on the Internet in China, and then there will be a lot of synonymous rewriting, and I may not be able to explain it clearly myself.”

"You are so weak." Tachibana Aya's eyes were full of disgust.

Xia Zhi turned his head away and did not look at her.

"Chinese is indeed very complicated," Shiraishi Lihua said with a smile on her face, "but this way it is more valuable to learn."

"That's right." Xia Zhi nodded.

"Let's pick up shells together!" Tachibana Aya raised her hand and the shell in her hand, just like raising a peace star. However, there are no fake shells on the beach, so this shell It won't turn into sand and scatter in the wind: "I should have brought the bucket over just now, or should I go over and get it now?"

"Isn't that bucket used to hold garbage?" Xia Zhi suddenly remembered the fireworks that Tachibana Aya bought that were originally placed next to the bucket. No, the fireworks he bought for Tachibana Aya: "Aren't those fireworks of yours just placed next to it? ? Won’t he also throw it into the bucket?”

Tachibana Aya stood up immediately: "No!"

She quickly took out her mobile phone and rummaged through it: "I'm looking for Mengmeng's phone number..."

The phone beeped, but Xia Meng didn't answer it.

The time came to 1 minute ago...

"Come on, let me tell you, the first and most basic rule of tracking is to eliminate the unstable factors that can expose you!"

Yamamoto Ryoko took out her mobile phone and set it to silent mode: "Because there may be emergencies, just keep it silent. There is no need to turn it off."

"Understood." Xia Meng operated her mobile phone as Yamamoto Ryoko said.

　I got out of bed and didn't finish the fight in time, hahaha...
