Chapter 33 I Approve
After hearing Uncle Cao agree to give it a try, Shi Xia volunteered, "Uncle Cao, please give me a letter of introduction. I'll go to the mainland for two or three days and ask about the salt and dry goods purchased on Haiyi Island, and what the prices are at the supply and marketing cooperative."

"When I come back, we'll have a meeting and discuss what to do then."

After hearing this, Uncle Cao's first reaction was: "You, a girl, are uneasy—"

Halfway through his words, he suddenly thought of Shi Xia's solo fight against the killer whale, and it seemed that there would be no problem for her to go alone.

"Okay! I'll give you a letter of introduction, and our village will pay for your stay at the guesthouse."

"Also... Shi Xia, if you can avoid taking action, then please do so. That person outside is no match for the killer whale."

One hit and he'll die!

Shi Xia smiled and said, "Don't worry, I never act rashly. I am the most reasonable person."

After hearing this, Uncle Cao felt much more relieved.

"By the way, Uncle Cao, we were talking before..."

Shi Xia's voice became much quieter, and Uncle Cao nodded knowingly, replying softly, "Twenty percent, I know."

"Uncle Cao, the 20% won't change, but if you subtract 100 yuan from the 20%, the rest will be given to me."

Uncle Cao instantly understood what Shi Xia meant.

Every time their fishing boats come back from going out to sea, they only make a hundred yuan from selling goods, and after deducting miscellaneous expenses, they only make thirty or forty yuan.

At the moment, Shi Xia is deducting one hundred yuan and taking 20% ​​profit from the remaining two hundred yuan.

"Shi Xia, thank you."

"No, I can't get so much if I go out alone."

Shi Xia doesn't want to suffer any loss, but he also doesn't want to take advantage of others. For a long time, no one is a fool.

Uncle Cao nodded, smiled and took Shi Xia to the village office. He gave her three written letters of introduction and a few blank sheets of paper with stamps.

"You can write. If you haven't finished it, you can write it yourself. Here's five dollars. I'll approve it for you first."

Shi Xia took it and said goodbye to Uncle Cao.

Shi Xia left the village office in a good mood. He planned to find a place to go to the sea and pick up some hard goods. The ferry left at eight in the morning, so he would still have time.

She can still set up a small stall for now. She brought some fresh seafood, which should sell well.

While Shi Xia was thinking about it, her ears moved. There were heavy footsteps behind her. She curled her lips and quickened her pace.

Wen Cheng'an, who was doing his daily morning jog, saw Shi Xia's back from afar. He wanted to catch up with him and ask him something.

The result is that the pursuit is getting further and further away.

"Shi-Xia!"

If Shi Xia hadn't done it on purpose, he would have written the three words "Wen Cheng'an" backwards.

Wen Cheng'an tried hard to control his breathing. This was the breathing method Shi Xia taught him. His pace became steady and quicker.

A few minutes later, Shi Xia, who was waiting in front, folded his arms and whistled at Wen Cheng'an.

"Master Wen is finally not as exhausted as he was on the first day."

"Shi Xia, be careful when you eat, don't poison yourself."

Shi Xia smiled and raised his hand, scaring Wen Chengan so much that he took two steps back.

As a result, Shi Xia smoothed her hair and looked at Wen Cheng'an with a smile, saying nothing and yet saying everything.

Wen Chengan's heart trembled when he saw Xia Xiao, and he changed the subject and asked, "Are you going to land?"

"Go! I want to eat pork, so I'm going to buy some meat tickets."

Shi Xia smacked her lips while speaking, and Wen Cheng'an was in a daze: Actually, Shi Xia is quite cute.

"I will go with you."

"No, I'm not coming back. I've got a letter of introduction."

Wen Chengan was so angry that he said stubbornly:

"Who said I'd go with you? I said I'd go too!"

Shi Xia said "oh".

"Okay, I approve."

After she finished speaking, she left. Wen Chengan shouted speechlessly from behind: "Who applied to you?"

"I'm just stopping by, just passing by!"

Shi Xia, who was standing in front of her, didn't even look back. She went all the way home, took the bucket, net bag, and fork, changed her clothes, and went out. She went straight to the beach, extended her supernatural power, and dove in to look for the goods.

When Xia entered the sea, she brought up a string of bubbles. She exerted strength with her legs, adjusted the direction of her body flexibly, and followed the guidance of her supernatural power to come to a reef.

From time to time, small fish swim by, colorful and in various shapes.

The brightly colored corals under the sea sway with the waves, as if attracting small fish guests.

Shi Xia approached the reef silently, and a corner of the winding fish tail appeared among the reefs, and the fish fins rotated in an S curve with the waves.

A big, fat and delicious eel.

Shi Xia used his special ability to lock the eel and stabbed it with a fork instantly.

A huge eel about seventy or eighty centimeters long was bending and struggling on the harpoon, and was thrown into the net bag by Shi Xia the next second.

The hunt continues.

With the help of supernatural powers, Shi Xia caught seven large eels in a row.

She also saw a big lobster, but it was not valuable at the moment and she didn't have time to eat it for the time being, so she would wait until she came back.

After about an hour underwater, Shi Xia caught seven eels, several sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and summer mussels, and also found some abalone on a reef.

Carrying a full bag of seafood, Shi Xia emerged from the sea. After adapting to the light, she dragged the net bag ashore, put the things into buckets and sacks, and went home.

On the way back, I met some islanders, just said hello and left.

At present, everyone has a new level of understanding of Shi Xia's strength, and will not cause trouble just because she got a little more.

After Shi Xia returned home, he changed his wet clothes, packed a bag, and finally packed the dried abalone that he had dried two days ago.

Including today's fresh seafood, Shi Xia picked up the shoulder pole and set off to take the ferry.

Ferry terminal.

It is called a ferry crossing, but in fact it is just a raft bridge of more than 20 meters long made by the villagers themselves using wood.

Wen Cheng'an stood on the shore, looking in the direction where Shi Xia should be coming, then turned back to look at the ferry that was about to dock.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

Wen Cheng'an raised his foot and prepared to go look for it.

After taking two steps, he saw Shi Xia coming over with a shoulder pole.

Wen Cheng'an turned around immediately, not wanting Shi Xia to notice that he was waiting anxiously.

But when he thought of what Shi Xia had taken, he turned away again.

Before he could even think of a reason, his legs had already sprinted over, his eyes glanced around, and he pointed at the bag and said, "I'll take this."

Shi Xia was carrying a shoulder pole and a bag of dried abalone in his hand.

Shi Xia deliberately provoked: "Young Master Wen is a real man, why doesn't he use a carrying pole?"

Wen Chengan took the bag from Shi Xia's hand and said, "I'm not stupid."

At least he wasn't as stupid as he was the past two days when he acted impulsively after being provoked by you.

Shi Xia let go, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Not bad, you finally have an intuitive understanding of your own weakness."

After speaking venomously, Shi Xia walked in front carrying a shoulder pole.

Wen Chengan in the back: What on earth did he come here for?

Looking for trouble?

Wen Cheng'an caught up with Shi Xia and was the first to take out money to buy a ferry ticket.

Shi Xia looked at it in amazement.

"You still have money?"

Wen Chengan was a second slow in taking the ticket, and turned around to complain, "A normal girl would be touched at this moment, instead of questioning the source of my money."

Shi Xia put down the carrying pole and sat down with a pout.

"You buying it for me means I'm worthy of it. That's called a sense of worthiness. In other words... sis, I deserve it!"

"Besides, it's not like I can't afford it. It's you... who came to the island broke and wore Uncle Wen's clothes."

Facing Shi Xia's curiosity, Wen Cheng'an sat down proudly, raised his head, and did not answer, with an expression as if waiting for you to ask.

Shi Xia smiled coolly: I'm giving you face! I won't ask, or you'll die of constipation!
