Chapter 100: Treasures are everywhere, even on the ground 100 times over
“Really? Then thank you,” Ye Jiu didn’t stand on ceremony.
However, Ye Jiu’s request for fish made some sense, but he couldn’t understand why Ye Jiu also wanted those turtles lying by the shore.
They hardly had any meat, and they were hard and rigid. He couldn’t think of any use for them.
But since Ye Jiu had asked for them, he didn’t ask any further questions.
Moreover, as the turtles were lying by the shore, he didn’t need to go into the water to catch them. So, he just did Ye Jiu a favor and lifted each turtle up, sending them all to Ye Jiu.
When it came to the fish, they almost didn’t need to be caught; a mere touch was enough to store them in the storage compartment.
Ye Jiu looked at the fish, almost as tall as himself, and dared not ask for more. After catching a few, he urged him to stop.
Catching too many of these large fish was more than she could handle right now. Even if she wanted to eat them, it would be impossible to finish them all, so it was better not to be too greedy.
Even in the water, Ye Jiu could clearly see his movements. When he got ashore, he casually picked up a few shells and brought them up, then handed them all to Ye Jiu.
“These are…” Ye Jiu did not take the shells but hesitated to speak, looking at him.
“Inside there are shiny pearls that can be strung and worn, our females here really like them. You can have a look. If you like them, keep them; if not, just throw them away.” The people of the Ancient Plane relied solely on hunting for their livelihood. Apart from food and things that could create food, everything else was dispensable.
With those words from him, Ye Jiu guessed what was inside and was immediately thrilled. The Ancient Plane truly was filled with treasures everywhere.
Beautiful things are loved by all women, girls being no exception.
Ye Jiu immediately took out a dagger, pried open the shells, and inside, almost every one contained pearls. Four or five shells had yielded about twenty pearls, each several times larger than the average pearl, and several were pink, bright and shiny, making Ye Jiu reluctant to let them go.
“Thank you, these are very precious here. Whatever you need in the future, just come to me, and I also wish you find a suitable tribe that will take you in soon,” Ye Jiu said, offering her kind wishes.
Moved by her words, he reflected on the scarcity of females on the Beastman Plane, where the few that existed were held in high regard and were accustomed to bossing the males around, taking their adoration for granted.
A gentle female like Ye Jiu was indeed rare.
Upon leaving the Plane Space, Ye Jiu hadn’t yet opened her eyes when she heard people talking.
Ye Jiu was very familiar with these voices; it was definitely her eldest and second brothers who had returned.
Ye Jiu was the youngest sister in the family and had not been well in the past, so she was quite pampered at home.
Especially the eldest brother, who, when she was younger a few years ago, would always affectionately take her out for walks and outings whenever he came back.
Ye Jiu quietly listened for a while; recently, a wealthy family in town had been renovating their house, and her eldest and second brothers had been working there as laborers. Now that the renovations were complete and no more help was needed, they had settled their wages and come back.
After the brothers handed over their wages and reported on recent events, Ye Jiu was about to open her eyes just as her eldest brother asked, “Dad, Mom, I saw the fourth brother with Wenqing and Wenyu constantly chiseling slabs outside. What are they doing?”
“It’s something your little sister came up with. She says it’s for making soap, for washing hands and faces. She’s already made a few that are quite useful. She’s just fiddling with making the designs more attractive to sell in town,” Ye Laohan said, rather proudly.
Ye Jiu is his daughter, and he naturally feels proud of his child’s achievements.
