The Herbal Scents of Farm Life-Chapter 2902 - 2903: Totally Unnecessary
"How is it, tasty right? Let me tell you, outside, these things aren’t even considered food." Captain Liu held a fruit in his hand, his eyes showing slight disdain as he spoke.
"If it’s not considered food, then what is it?" the two spirit beasts asked, puzzled.
Such delicious things, if they’re not food, then what are they? They really didn’t understand.
"There are lots of delicious things outside," Lin Changhong immediately chimed in.
"These fruits, what are they? If it weren’t for the convenience of carrying them for the mission, we wouldn’t even bother bringing them out. The things outside are the real delicacies, just thinking about them makes your mouth water."
He described some of the outside foods, making the eyes of the two spirit beasts sparkle.
Yue Chushui stood behind them, listening to their exaggerated stories. It wasn’t them drooling now, it was the two spirit beasts, really drooling.
It seems he had been overthinking it before, dealing with these spirit beasts still relies on the abilities of Big Brother and Captain Liu to spin tales convincingly.
He was just unnecessary.
Thinking this, he stepped back, planning to think about how he could help when dealing with the old patriarch.
He couldn’t just let Sister Sangsang and her husband do everything while they just watched from the side. That would not only be a burden but would never lead to growth.
Meanwhile, Lin Changhong and Captain Liu continued to entertain the two spirit beasts until their drool was all coaxed away.
"Is the outside world really that good? Then why does grandfather say our Qianji Pond is the best?" one of the spirit beasts asked, naive.
"Well..."
Lin Changhong, being young and from the wildlands, was sometimes not quick enough to react.
"Don’t listen to the old patriarch’s nonsense, the outside is great." Captain Liu immediately took over.
"Sure, the outside world can be a bit dangerous, but there’s so much tasty food out there, this and that, you could eat a different one every day and still not finish them all."
"Really?"
"Are there really so many delicious things?" the two spirit beasts asked simultaneously.
"Of course!"
Captain Liu nodded with intense seriousness.
"Of course, outside, the delicacies aren’t just for anyone to eat; you have to pay for them."
"Pay? Why do you have to pay? What is paying?" the two spirit beasts asked.
They’re aware of buying things, as their grandfather often traded some insignificant item for treasures from other spirit beasts, claiming to buy, but it was basically coercion.
But grandfather is the patriarch of Qianji Pond, and other spirit beasts dared not do anything to him, could only hand over their things and swallow their pride.
"Money is... like some treasures, you must have plenty in Qianji Pond, just one treasure can buy lots of delicacies, like what’s in this."
Saying this, Captain Liu took out a treasure he had obtained earlier, showing it to the two spirit beasts while explaining.
"We have lots of these kinds of things here."
The spirit beasts looked without concern at the item in Captain Liu’s hand.
"If only we could get a hold of it, then we could go to the outside world and buy lots of things, like those delicious fruits, can we buy them too?"
But they’re all in grandfather’s hands, hidden away by him, it’s impossible for us to get them."
