Chapter 70 It’s quite dangerous, we just collect the rent.
"Mom, didn't you make new clothes a few days ago? Why are you making them again?"
"You always need to change clothes. You must have two or three sets of clothes each, so that you can each have one set."
"The original clothes are still intact. They can still be worn after patching them up."
"What can you wear? If you patch it up a few more times, it won't even be clothes anymore. If it's torn, it's torn. You can just ball it up and use it as a mop. It won't be a waste."
"Brother, aren't you worried we don't have enough cloth?" Bai Wei walked in and overheard the conversation. Seeing Bai Qiao nodding repeatedly, he smiled and said, "Don't worry. The island may be short on food, but it's definitely not short on cloth. Xiaoxi and the others found a place where cloth is plentiful and bought a lot of good stuff. Everyone living on the island can exchange it, so almost everyone has at least three changes of clothes."
"Even so, the material shouldn't be cheap." Bai Qiao carefully touched the clothes on his body.
"It's not cheap, but it's still within everyone's budget," Bai Wei explained, noting Bai Qiao's still-incredulous expression. "Brother, you haven't been out on a boat yet, right? Once you do, you'll know we've done a lot of business nearby in the past few years. Not counting the gold and silver Miaomiao and Xiaoxi have saved, the people on the island have plenty of savings, and life's pretty good."
"Will this cause trouble?" Bai Qiao was still worried. "I mean, if we do this, will it attract the attention of those pirates? I heard there are many pirates on the sea, and they are all evil people."
Unexpectedly, when he asked the question seriously, he didn't get an answer, but laughter from those around him.
Even passersby couldn't help laughing.
Bai Qiao was even more confused: "What are you all laughing at?"
"Brother, just walk around and listen to what everyone is saying, and you'll understand," Bai Wei said, explaining, "When our ships go out to sea to trade, those pirates not only don't dare to confront us head-on, but they often flee. After all, a few years ago, some foolish pirates tried to rob us, but Xiaoyu and his men wiped them out."
Bai Qiao's eyes widened. "The whole gang? Pirates?"
"Yes, they are pirates," Bai Wei nodded. "But not all pirates died. Some pirates who did no evil survived. However, they are not on this island, but on their own islands. They don't continue to be pirates, but sail around to do business. Of course, if they want our protection, they need to pay us every month."
Bai Qiao looked at him in shock: "We still collect protection money?"
"Not really. It's not mandatory. It's mainly because doing business on the coast is risky," Bai Wei shook his head. "But over the years, because we've taught them a lesson, many pirates don't dare to mess around here. There have also been a lot of people doing business without paying, but there haven't been any problems."
Bai Qiao had a complicated expression. He never expected that while he and his second brother's families were struggling to make a living, the rest of the family members were actually doing so well here.
Not only is he doing well himself, he can even provide protection for others.
But this way, he will feel more at ease living here.
"Xiao Wei, we've just arrived and don't know anything. Please guide me in everything I need to do," Bai Qiao said seriously. "It doesn't matter what it is. I want to do more work."
"I was just about to tell you about this," Bai Wei handed him a badge. "This is your ID card. You can use it to get work. Xiaoyu and Xiaoxi handle almost all the big and small things on the island. Your work will mainly be assigned by Xiaoxi, so just listen to her."
Bai Qiao immediately took the sign and thought about what he had heard when he came here: "What about Miaomiao? I heard Miaomiao is also very good."
"Well, she's a think tank, but because she's so young, she's mainly a little teacher. If you have any questions, just ask her, and she'll be able to answer them for you."
"Anything?"
"Well, over the years, everyone has gone to sea and obtained a lot of books, which we gave to Miaomiao. She has a photographic memory and remembers everything she has read, so she knows everything written in the book," Bai Wei said, adding, "But so many books were brought from different countries, and the writing systems are all different, so we don't know what's written on them. Anyway, there's nothing that everyone has asked Miaomiao over the years that she can't answer."
"This is incredible," Bai Qiao expressed shock again. "Xiaoyu and Xiaoxi are so strong, and Miaomiao is so smart. No wonder this island has become so beautiful."
Bai Wei smiled and patted his shoulder: "So you can live here with peace of mind. As long as they are here, everything will be fine."
Bai Qiao nodded immediately.
At the same time, Bai Xi and Bai Miao, who are considered very reliable, are seriously discussing the choice of food.
The plane that the latest pass arrives at is a very strange plane. Although they cannot get out and don’t know what the specific situation is outside, there is definitely no shortage of meat in this plane.
During the days I rented the house, I saved more than 3,000 kilograms of meat.
Fortunately, it was confirmed that the meats were non-toxic and edible. They also owned several rental locations, and they consumed a lot of the meats just by selling them.
However, as the houses in the new plane are upgraded, more and more houses will become upgradeable, and there will be more and more meat in the future, so they are discussing making some of this meat into meat dishes and then selling them to tenants in the new plane.
"There's enough meat, but not enough seasoning," Bai Xi looked at the list Bai Miao had drawn up. "These future recipes will require a lot of ingredients to be cooked well."
"The supply is sufficient for now, but not in the long run. However, we can grow some," Bai Miao pointed to the various seasonings on the list and described their methods one by one. "We don't have enough manpower here for some things, so we can go to the magical plane to find people. If we don't use ingredients from there, the taste won't be weird."
This has been confirmed. In the past few years, they have gone to the magic plane to cook more than once. As long as they don't use the ingredients from there, the taste of the food will not become strange.
And if they really want to find someone to make the seasoning, they will look for those who do not have magic. In this case, the seasoning made will naturally not contain any magical elements.
Bai Xi thought about business: "If we make a lot, can we sell it as goods? Currently, our external business is mainly focused on reselling, and we don't have our own products. If we had our own products, our business would definitely grow bigger, but the prerequisite is that we need to have unique products."
"Is MSG okay?" Bai Miao asked her.
Bai Xi's eyes lit up instantly: "Yes, of course!"
Bai Miao has read many books about the future over the years. Although she cannot fully understand them due to her young age, the contents of the books have entered her mind. When she sees some related situations, she can naturally recall the contents of the books and come up with ways to improve them.
Bai Yu was still outside looking for someone, and things on the island had already begun to move forward.
Several planes are also changing along with it.
Soon after, people who were able to purchase supplies through the rental panel suddenly noticed that several cooked meat dishes appeared on it.
The biggest surprise among them is the tenants of the new dimension.
When Bai Xi and Bai Miao arrived, what they saw in multiple surveillance windows was the scene of tenants busy eating. One portion was not enough, so they ordered a second and a third.
After buying the meat, his savings were not enough, so he went out hunting without stopping.
Come back and buy more meat.
Just from what the two of them saw, each of them had eaten at least several kilograms of meat.
But the price of cooked meat is completely different from that of raw meat. To earn the money to buy one kilogram of cooked meat, you need to sell more than 20 kilograms of meat. The more these people eat, the more meat they sell.
Before we knew it, a new batch of meat was stored in the warehouse.
"They all have such big appetites."
"Well, no wonder he can beat those giant beasts," Bai Xi said, clenching his fists. "I wonder how my strength compares to theirs."
She looked at Bai Miao, and Bai Miao looked at her. Then Bai Miao sighed, adjusted the panel, took her to the top of the residence, and opened a door at the top.
Then I saw a giant beast not far away with its eyes wide open, looking for people.
But compared with the giant beasts, humans are too small. Even if they open their eyes wide, they may not be able to find people.
Of course, if you take it lightly because of this, it will bring danger to yourself. After all, the giant beasts cannot find humans. Once humans get close, they are likely to be trampled to death by the giant beasts.
Bai Xi clenched her fist and compared it. She felt very small in front of the giant beast, let alone her fist.
The desire to go out and try my luck was instantly extinguished.
"These planes are so dangerous."
"Except for the forest plane."
"The forest plane was quite dangerous in the beginning. Even now, we have to build a wall to keep out the dangers outside," Bai Xi said with emotion. "Let's go, let's go. Forget it. This plane doesn't look anything special. We can just collect the rent."
Bai Miao nodded.
The two of them returned to the trunk room in silence.
Then they looked at each other and laughed.
"It's okay. At least in our own world, we are all pretty strong. Although we can't leave these planes, at least we can collect rent, so it's still practical."
"Well, just collect the rent."
They are not stubborn people. Since the outside of these planes are very dangerous, they have no intention of going out to explore. Just like the extremely dangerous strong wind world, after discovering that a hurricane may occur at any time in that plane, they have never left the top floor again.
However, although they have never left the top floor, all the rooms in that building have been upgraded one after another over the past few years. The entire building has become a building that can withstand strong winds and can accommodate many people.
At this time, the people in the building also discovered the cooked meats that appeared on the rental interface.
They are not very interested in these meats. What they care most about is the small words at the bottom of the interface.
