Chapter 45: Lifeboat, Honeycomb Briquettes, and Fireball Talisman



Yun Ruoxi thought about it and was still a little worried, so she took out two boxes of honeycomb coal.

Honeycomb briquettes are made from a mixture of coal and clay, in a honeycomb-shaped cylindrical form.

Honeycomb briquettes are more durable than coal, but the temperature cannot be burned too high.

But if you consider heating and durability, honeycomb coal is the best choice.

After finishing the things here, Yun Ruoxi returned to her room.

I happened to see my mother-in-law, Zhao, who had just recognized the space ring as its owner. Now she was happily putting away and taking out the tables in the room, having a lot of fun.

Although my grandmother had a fever and fell asleep, for safety reasons, I still woke her up and asked her to recognize the space ring as my master.

He also explained to his grandmother the dangers that could occur at any time, and watched her memorize how to use the space and know what was inside, and then he let her rest with peace of mind.

Mu Ruxue arrived and knocked on Xiao Jingxuan's door. She just heard the sounds of Liu Yong, Liu Gang, Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan eating and drinking in the room.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Jamel Xiao got up and opened the door. Seeing that it was his wife, he said with some surprise, "Madam, why are you here? Is there something you want to say?"

Mu Ruxue nodded and said, "Grandmother's fever has subsided. She wants you and big brother to come over and talk to her about something."

When Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan heard that their grandmother's fever had subsided, I turned to Liu Yong and Liu Gang and said, "My two lords, please wait a moment. We will be back soon."

Liu Yong could understand very well, "Brother Xiao, go quickly, we two brothers will be waiting."

Xiao Jingrui also stood up and followed the two of them to the next room.

Mu Ruxue gave the thing to Xiao Jingxuan, and Yun Ruoxi directly gave the ring to Xiao Jingrui.

Looking at the confused expressions of the two brothers, Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue suddenly discovered that there was still some similarity between the two brothers' eyebrows and eyes.

Xiao Jingrui: "Madam, what is this?"

Before Yun Ruoxi could explain, Zhao grumbled in disdain, "Here you go, just take it. Why are you asking so many questions?"

Being complained by their own mother, Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan instantly understood what this thing was. It must be a treasure given by Master Yun Ruoxi.

Yun Ruoxi explained, "This is a space ring. The area inside isn't very large, but with proper planning, it's more than enough for use. And I've put two fireball talismans in everyone's space rings. These are my master's self-defense treasures. Unless absolutely necessary, it's better to use firearms than fireball talismans."

Everyone had seen Yun Ruoxi use the Fireball Talisman, and she burned Aunt Zhang to death in just a quarter of an hour. Naturally, they knew the power of the Fireball Talisman.

Once the Fireball Talisman is torn and used, ordinary water cannot extinguish it. You can only wait until his spiritual energy is exhausted, or use the Water Ball Talisman to extinguish it.

But now it is obvious that the only way is to wait until the spiritual energy of the fireball talisman is exhausted before it will automatically extinguish.

Xiao Jingrui asked worriedly, "Why did you suddenly give us such a precious thing?"

Mu Ruxue told everyone in detail what her two best friends were worried about.

Zhao had just listened to the analysis of her two daughters-in-law, so she already knew the importance of this matter.

After everyone heard this, Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingxuan didn't dare go back to drink. If they drank too much and there was a flood at night, it would delay their escape.

Besides, there is a whole family waiting for their protection. If the two of them fail to deliver again, it may lead to an irreparable situation.

Jamel Xiao: “If that’s the case, then we have to be more alert at night. When we go back later, we won’t drink anymore. It’s better to be careful.”

Mu Ruxue: "Here's what I'm thinking. Tomorrow morning, you and Big Brother should get up early. If nothing happens tonight, you should go to the top of the mountain tomorrow morning and use a telescope to see if there are any other areas affected by the disaster."

As she spoke, Mu Ruxue took out two telescopes from her space ring and gave them to them.

After the two brothers took it, Jamel Xiao said, “Okay, my eldest brother and I will go up the mountain to take a look early tomorrow morning.”

Now Mu Ruxue only has one space ring left in her hand, which she plans to leave for her father-in-law Xiao Jing.

Mu Ruxue: "Father has gone to the village chief's room to discuss the window issue. When he comes back, please give the space ring to him, but don't let anyone else find out."

Jamel Xiao nodded, “Don’t worry, Madam, your husband can still handle this little thing.”

On the other side, Xiao Jing was drinking tea and chatting in Village Chief Li's room.

Xiao Jing: "Village Chief Li, I'm so sorry. We were passing through Dashan Village and stayed at your house. We should have taken good care of your house, but the temperature was too low. We will compensate for the damaged windows according to the price. I hope Village Chief Li will forgive us."

Village chief Li and Li Dazhu were fine. They were just stunned for a moment when they heard the words, but when they heard that they wanted compensation, they thought it was just a matter of making a new window and installing it, which was not a big deal.

He smiled and said, "So that's what you're talking about. Don't worry, dear guest. Since you're willing to compensate us, we won't suffer any loss anyway."

Xiao Jing nodded, took out 50 taels of silver and handed it to Village Chief Li.

Seeing this, Village Chief Li wanted to refuse again, "It's just three windows. How can I spend so much money? It's too expensive."

Xiao Jing insisted, "No, no, no, we acted first and asked for your consent later. Logically, we should have obtained your consent before installing the furnace. Now that it has happened, we are informing you. We have let the village chief down. The rest is our apology."

Originally, the village chief's wife and Li Dazhu's wife felt a little sad when they heard that the windows of the new house were damaged. After all, it was a new house they built and they lived in it very carefully. But they felt a little uncomfortable that the windows were damaged by the people who were staying there.

Even after hearing Xiao Jing say that he would pay compensation in silver, their faces still looked a little ugly.

But they didn't expect the compensation to be 50 taels of silver. You know, their family may not be able to earn 50 taels of silver even if they work hard for ten years.

Now, just because three windows were damaged, the compensation was 50 taels of silver. In addition, when we stayed here before, the first wave of people gave us ten taels of silver, and the second wave of people gave us ten taels of silver.

In just one afternoon, they had earned a net income of 70 taels.

The village head's wife kept calculating in her mind. She had spent two hundred taels of silver on building this brick and tile house. After the house was built, she only had 30 taels left.

Now, they have been given another 70 taels of silver in just one afternoon, so they have a total of 100 taels of silver.

Half of the money for building the house was returned, and the smiles on the faces of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became much more sincere.
