Tacit understanding

Chu Yuanyan returned to the cabin with a bag of spiritual stones. Gu Zhian had been waiting for him to come back. Seeing that he came back well, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Are you okay?"

Chu Yuanyan shook his head, "It's okay." He handed the bag of spirit stones in his hand to Gu Zhian, "Look at this."

Ouyang Jingcheng and Si Dong also followed in. When they saw the bag Chu Yuanyan took out, they both frowned, "Such a small bag? How many spirit beads can it hold?"

Then he saw Gu Zhian take out a shiny stone from the bag.

Ouyang Jingcheng immediately shut up. This stone looked very similar to the stones hidden in his bag! It's just that the color of the stone in Zhi'an's hand looked worse, not as translucent as the ones in his bag.

Chu Yuanyan said: "Guanshi Liu said this is a low-grade spiritual stone. One low-grade spiritual stone can be exchanged for a thousand spiritual beads."

Si Dong's eyes widened and he whispered: "So this is the spirit stone?" The manuscript he had read also mentioned spirit stones, but he did not go into details. He only said that spirit stones are rare in the mortal world and are very rare.

Important resources are only in the hands of a very small number of people.

Gu Zhian, Chu Yuanyan and Ouyang Jingcheng looked at each other and tacitly did not mention that they had spiritual stones in their bags.

Gu Zhian put the spirit stone back into his bag and handed it back to Chu Yuanyan, "You should keep it yourself, it's weird."

Chu Yuanyan took it and said with a smile, "Do you have anything you want? I'll buy it for you."

Gu Zhian's eyes moved to the bag containing the spiritual stones, and he was thinking about another thing.

"Obviously everyone trades with spiritual beads, why did Manager Liu suddenly trade with spiritual stones?"

Chu Yuanyan also thought about this problem on the way back, for two reasons. One is that it is troublesome to trade tens of thousands of spirit beads, which is not as convenient as spirit stones, just like they used to use banknotes to buy large amounts of things. The other is that

Manager Liu had another purpose, to use his hands to get the spirit stone out of Qi's Trading Company, and then find an opportunity to get it back into his hands.

"No matter what his intentions are, in the next month, we will act carefully and not give him a chance. If he insists on running into him, I will not be lenient," Chu Yuanyan said.

Gu Zhian nodded, "This ship seems to be peaceful, but in fact it is full of dangers. I don't know how many things will happen in a month's sea journey. We must always be vigilant and not give opportunities to people hiding in the dark. Especially a few small children.

Yes, we must never let them be alone."

The three of them all nodded solemnly upon hearing this, expressing their agreement.

When the three of them returned to their cabins, Gu Zhian saw that Shi Yin had woken up at some point, "Sorry, I disturbed you."

Shi Yin shook his head, sat up and poured a glass of water for Gu Zhian and himself. Then he glanced at the two sleeping girls and whispered: "After you came back from the trade fair today, every time I go out, I see people poking their heads in.

Let’s look around here, pretending to be passing by, but in fact more and more people are looking at us.”

Shi Yin could notice it, so how could Gu Zhian not notice it? She smiled and said, "Money and silk move people's hearts. I made a lot of spirit beads at the trade fair today. Naturally, some people will be interested. It's human nature. It doesn't matter. Let's see who it is.

He will be the first one to reach out to us, and then he will kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."

Seeing that Gu Zhian was not worried at all, Shiyin seemed to have taken a reassurance, stopped thinking and worrying, and went back to bed to sleep.

Shiyin has always known that she is a useless ordinary person. As long as she can do the work of serving tea and pouring water with the young lady and the others, she doesn't have to think about the rest. Anyway, if the sky falls, the young lady and the others will be there.

Those who are capable will bear it.

Hearing Shi Yin's breathing gradually getting longer, Gu Zhian was a little envious. The quality of her sleep was so good. Ever since Jing'er was cursed with premature death, she had been having trouble sleeping. She often woke up in the middle of the night and had to hold Jing'er with her hand.

Only by feeling her powerful pulse beat can I fall asleep slowly.

Sighing, she covered Jing'er with the quilt, and when she was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, she noticed that there seemed to be slight movement in the backpack placed aside.

When he opened the bag of his backpack, he saw that Xiaolan, who had been sleeping, woke up at some point and was using its pink beak to peck at the leather bag filled with spiritual stones.

She caught Xiaolan and put it in the palm of her hand. Looking at its beautiful new long tail, she couldn't help but touch it and asked with a smile: "What's the fuss about again?"

Little Blue opened its wings, flew back into the backpack, got back to the edge of the leather bag, and pecked at the opening of the leather bag with its beak.

Gu Zhian's eyes flashed, "Do you want a spiritual stone?"
