The Little King Next Door

Early the next morning, the sky was bright, and the pier of Trench Island.

This is a beach on Haigou Island where the current is relatively stable. People from Haigou Village have built a row of wooden rafts that go deep into the sea here. There are only two or two medium-sized boats in the village moored here.

Both boats seem to be old, one can hold nearly 40 people, and the other can only hold about 20 people.

At this time, many people were already waiting on the pier.

It is not easy to go out to sea once. Originally, the village wanted to wait for the market in Haicao Village to start, and then go there with two boats. Now, in order not to waste, the village temporarily decided to let the anchor take some villagers and goods to Haicao Village first.

Fortunately, there will be a market in two days, and most of the village has already prepared what to bring to sell. It's just that many villagers worked hard last night to fill up the boats in the middle of the night.

There are many more bags of lime in the village this year, but the lime will go with the big ship. The cargo brought by the anchor this time is the same as in previous years, which are dried seafood and mountain products from the island.

In addition to the ten young men, the anchor also wore Zhang Hui with his hands tied with a dark face.This was what Wang Ye and Lei Mu ordered him to bring before leaving last night. Although the anchor thought it was not good to bring this person, Wang Ye insisted and Lei Mu agreed, so he had no choice but to agree.

In addition to these people, Haiya also came, with Haidan still sleeping soundly on his back.

This is also Wang Ye's request.Because he planned to stay there for a while after arriving at Haicao Island, but he also promised to teach the Hai family brothers to learn, so he went to the Hai family and asked them if they wanted to go to Haicao Village together.

Of course Haiya and Haidan are willing. Haidan has been excited all night and can't get up in the morning.

In addition to these people, another unexpected person also came, the anchor's eldest daughter, the paddle.

The oars came here because the village chief's grandson, Hai Yaozu, made a mistake... We'll talk about that later.

"Little Yezi, our village has thought about it carefully. You and your brother have shown us too much kindness to our village. We really don't know how to repay it. Our village doesn't have any good things. It was fished from the sea in previous years, so I will give it to you. It's gone." The village chief took out a cloth bag and put it in Wang Ye's hands solemnly.

Wang Ye opened the bag and took a look, and was taken aback.

These turned out to be three colored pearls, one pink, one black, and one gold.And they all have a big thumb belly, round appearance, no obvious flaws on the surface, high gloss, and they are top-quality pearls at first glance.

Wang Ye was heartbroken for a moment, then returned the bag to the village head, shook his head and said, "It's too expensive, I can't take it."

Lei Mu also saw it from the side, and he was in favor of Xiao Yezi's actions.Small leaves that are not greedy, very good.

Lei Mu didn't know that Wang Ye was crying in his heart: three colored pearls of this size cost a lot of money, and he could buy a big house to support his aunt after taking it back to Earth, and he didn't need his aunt to work.

But some things can be held, and some things will be hot to hold.

Seeing that Wang Ye would not accept it, the village head became anxious, and said to Wang Ye: "We know that this kind of pearl can be sold at a very high price in the mainland outside, but if we sell it in Haicao Village, we can't sell it at a high price. Those pearls The foreign merchants are very bad, and they kept the price so low that they would not even give us a small boat with 20 people in exchange for these three colored pearls."

The village chief picked up the black pearl with the size of a thumb, "Just such a black pearl, do you know what price they gave us? Ten silver coins."

Wang Ye: "...so dark."

The village chief smiled wryly, "It's black, but if we want outside money, outside things, and outside medicine, we have to agree to this price. Later, the anchor came back from outside and told us the real price of this colorful pearl, so we can buy it." Don’t sell it. When someone asks, they say that what we sold in the past is what we saved in the past, and it will be gone after we sell it.”

The village chief gave Wang Ye the three colored pearls that would definitely cause the envy of countless people outside: "Take it. Anyway, we can't sell it for any price, so it's better to give it to you. After you leave, get it." Selling them outside can also make these pearls worth what they deserve."

Wang Ye touched his nose and looked at the sky.

He didn't feel that he deserved it, it's just that he was kind to the people of Haigou Village, and the main purpose was to earn experience points. It can be said that even if the people of Haigou Village didn't give him anything in return, they didn't owe him anything.

But now the village head unexpectedly sent him such a valuable big colorful pearl on behalf of the whole village, so that he couldn't shake his hands and left.

For this reason, when the village head led three teenagers in their early teens to stand together with the two brothers Haiya Haidan and the anchor's eldest daughter Chuan Pao, besides Haidan who was still snoring, the five teenagers, men and women At the same time, she bared her white teeth at him, and smiled at him with a particularly joyful and flattering smile.

Wang Ye... silently acquiesced.Forget it, if a sheep is driven, so is a flock of sheep.

Lei Mu stroked his little father's hair silently.The little old man of the village head has obviously figured out Xiao Yezi's veins, and he can see that he is a person who prefers softness to toughness.

However, by giving away three colorful beads that they couldn't sell for a price, Xiao Yezi would train a few more future talents for their village. This deal couldn't be more cost-effective.Sure enough, people are mature.

This boat can only hold 20 people, and the village head packed 20 people in without any waste.

The boat is small, there is no separate passenger cabin, and almost all the places that can be stuffed are filled with cargo, and the people who do not operate the boat are all concentrated on the middle deck of the bow.

It was the first time for the six teenagers, including Hai Ya and Chuan Pao, to board a large ship for a long journey. boatman.

This kind of small wooden boat is easy to capsize if it is not properly balanced, so people on the boat are not concentrated near a certain side of the boat.

Wang Ye didn't ask about getting on a boat with oars—in his opinion, it's very common for girls to get on a boat.

But the anchor took the initiative to come over and explain: "Originally this time Hai Yaozu should come together, but he and Duomi ran to my house last night, trying to find out from that fugitive that there is something that can make people stay young forever. Where, I still wanted to sneak him away. I was caught on the spot."

Wang Ye: "...Hai Yaozu doesn't look stupid."

The anchor said angrily: "It's not stupid, it's just the brains! As punishment, the village canceled his chance to go to the Haicao Village Fair this time. His father beat him with ten sticks and locked him up. He wants to catch fish for nothing for the village for a year. The girl Duomei, the village will not deal with her for the sake of her grandma."

Immediately, the anchor sneered: "But at this moment, the village chief should have summoned the whole village to talk about the stupid things Hai Yaozu and Duomi did, and their respective punishments."

Both Wang Ye and Lei Mu applauded the village chief in their hearts: This trick is poisonous enough.The eldest grandson of the village chief was beaten and punished so harshly, but the granddaughter of the other mastermind, Granny Heizhu, was fine. What do the villagers think?

If Granny Heizhu knew how to be a human being, she would definitely punish Duomei severely in front of the villagers.If she couldn't bear it, then she and their family would no longer be respected by the villagers in the village, and it would never be easy to take Joe casually.

At last the anchor spoke of his daughter's boarding.

The anchor said proudly: "The number of places to study with you is not set randomly. The village conducted an assessment, and my eldest daughter Chuan Pao defeated all the boys and girls in the village by herself. Originally, the village did not allow girls to board the big boat, but I told the villagers that there are female passengers and captains on the big merchant ships outside, so why can’t the women in our village get on the big ships? What the boy can do, so can my daughter, as long as she is willing! It’s just that Yaozu made a mistake Can’t get on the boat, of course I have to give this opportunity to my daughter, otherwise I, as a father, won’t accept it.”

Wang Ye gave a thumbs up to the anchor. This gesture is not common in this world, but you can see what it means.

The anchor looked at the eldest daughter, his eyes full of pride as a father.

His daughter is capable and wants to learn more, how can he not fulfill it as a father?

After that, while the anchor was steering the rudder, he explained to the two of them some people and things that needed attention in Haicao Village.

Halfway through the boat, the excited teenagers were all tired, and each looked for a place to rest.Although their task was to learn from Xiao Yezi, but seeing that Xiao Yezi didn't take the initiative to mention it, they were not in a hurry.

Relying on their identities as honored guests, Lei Mu and Wang Ye sat on the bow of the boat blowing the sea breeze.

"Mumu, I'm going to Haicao Island soon. I heard that the villages there are very beautifully built. I wanted to see it with my own eyes a long time ago. I didn't expect to have this opportunity." Wang Ye sighed.

"You are still young, and you will see more beautiful places in the future."

"Well, I also want to visit your hometown."

"My hometown..." Lei Mu paused, then suddenly said, "You earned it."

Seeing Lei Mu forcefully changing the subject, Wang Ye thought he didn't want to mention his hometown, so he took out the cloth bag as he wanted and laughed: "Yeah, I was shocked. I didn't expect that there would be such a remote place. Such a good thing."

Lei Mu shook his head, took the cloth bag from his hand, opened it, picked out the black pearl from inside, and said: "This is not a pearl, this is a magic crystal."

Wang Ye was dumbfounded: "Huh?"

Mojing, what he thought would only appear in dungeons, actually appeared in Xinshou Village now?

Lei Mu flicked his forehead: "Why, haven't you seen the magic crystal?"

"I've seen it." Wang Ye asked stupidly: "Is this really a magic crystal? Why didn't I feel its energy?"

"Because its surface is covered with the secretion of some kind of shellfish. Do you know how the pearl is obtained?"

Wang Ye nodded, then came to his senses and said, "You mean that some shellfish treats the magic crystal as foreign gravel, and finally wraps the magic crystal in layers of secretions, turning the magic crystal into a pearl magic crystal? Wow, how big is this shellfish?" ?”

Lei Mu picked up the black pearl again and took a closer look: "Compared to the magic crystal, the outer layer of shellfish secretion that can isolate energy leakage is actually more precious. It would be great if we could know what shellfish it is, what a pity."

If it wasn't for his special eyesight, when the village chief opened the bag and scanned it deliberately, he would not have discovered that the black pearl was an extremely rare pearl magic crystal.

Not to mention the value of the magic crystal and the black pearl itself, the combination of the two is rare in a thousand years. Only this uniqueness can be sold at a sky-high price among some nobles and rich people who have nothing to do but spend money.

Wang Ye happily put away the other two colorful beads, "Mumu, you need more energy than me now, so I will give you this pearl magic crystal."

Lei Mu was surprised, "You want to give it to me? Do you know how much such a special black pearl can be sold for?"

Wang Yete waved his hand proudly: "What's mine is yours, no matter how valuable it is, it's not as good as what you have."

Lei Mu laughed, his heart warmed, but he still said: "Little fool, sell this special black pearl, and the money you get can buy at least ten magic crystals of the same level."

Wang Ye: "...Brother, you know I'm still young and I don't think well."

Lei Mu laughed loudly, and even held up the little Wang Ye in a sitting position.He likes this little thing so much, he might as well take it with him in the future.Raising children seems to be quite interesting?

After being forced by Wang Ye, he sighed, his face was full of indifference: ...I really didn't expect that I would be lifted up by a tree one day.
