After Fusu received the good news, he was eager to return home and stood up to say goodbye.
Before leaving, he seemed to remember something, turned around, and said to Yu Bai solemnly:
"Miss Yu, if you find crystal cores again in the future, please leave some for me. As for the price, you can rest assured that I will not treat you unfairly."
Yu Bai thought of the box of antiques Fusu had given him last time, and nodded with a smile: "Master Fusu, just rest assured."
Seeing Yu Bai agreed so readily, Fusu felt a little embarrassed.
He touched his nose and asked hesitantly, "Miss Yu, is the money I gave you enough?"
After all, the magical effects of the crystal core have far exceeded his cognition, and its value is probably difficult to estimate.
He was worried that the price he offered was too low and that Yu Bai was being unfairly treated.
Yu Bai thought of the eight million yuan in his account and kept saying, "Enough, enough, enough!"
Her smile is as beautiful as a flower, her eyebrows are curved, and her eyes are full of sincerity.
Seeing this, Fusu finally felt relieved, but he still added something with some concern.
"Don't worry, Miss Yu. I will definitely prepare double the money next time. When I return to the capital, my father will definitely give me more gold and silver."
Yu Bai quickly interrupted Fusu.
"Master Fusu, compared to gold and silver, I... I prefer those exquisite jade ornaments, small bronze objects, or... pottery figurines."
She looked at Fusu, her eyes full of anticipation.
"That's all?"
Fusu was stunned, obviously not expecting Yu Bai’s request to be so...special.
In his opinion, although these things can be considered precious, their value is far less than that of gold and silver.
Yu Bai did not explain, but just said that he preferred the beautiful appearance of these objects.
"Since Miss Yu likes it, Fusu will agree to it." Fusu smiled brightly and bowed in farewell.
As he turned around, Fusu's eyes swept across the courtyard, but were attracted by a scene.
In a corner of the courtyard, dozens of huge boxes were neatly stacked, stacked up layer by layer, forming a small hill, which was a spectacular sight.
"This is..." Fusu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
These boxes were made of strange materials, neither wood nor stone, with smooth and flat surfaces, and printed with symbols he didn't recognize, exuding a mysterious aura.
Yu Bai followed his gaze, smiled sweetly, and explained, "This is the food I traded with someone else."
As she spoke, she walked forward and opened one of the boxes, motioning Fusu to come and take a look.
Fusu took a closer look and saw that the box was filled with small cubes wrapped in special materials, which were colorful and eye-catching.
"food?"
Fusu frowned even more tightly. He had never seen such "food".
These small cubes look more like some kind of handicraft, delicate and small, but they don't look like food at all.
Yu Bai looked at the confusion that could not be concealed on Fusu's face, and his heart suddenly moved.
She thought of the hardships Fusu had endured on his long journey, and the scarcity and monotony of food in ancient times.
So she quickly moved a large empty box from the ground, and picked out a few items from each box containing food and put them into the boxes according to their categories.
There were compressed biscuits, instant noodles, self-heating rice, bread, sausages, canned food, various dried meats, and even a few packets of snacks and bottles of drinks...
Fusu looked at Yu Bai's busy figure, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
He wanted to refuse, after all, these things looked too precious and he didn't deserve them.
But Yu Bai took the lead and stuffed the full box into Fusu's hands.
"Master Fusu, these are all easy-to-carry foods. I'm sending them to you to fill your stomach on the road. Please don't refuse them."
"These foods are also easy to eat. These compressed biscuits and dried meat can be eaten directly."
"For instant noodles and self-heating rice, just add hot water and wait for a while; for this canned food, you can eat it right after opening it..."
Yu Bai patiently explained one by one and told Fusu in detail how to eat each food.
Fusu held the heavy box and looked down at the various "foods" in the box, feeling a warm feeling in his heart.
"Thank you, Miss Yu."
Fusu thanked Yu Bai solemnly, then left with big strides, carrying the box weighing dozens of kilograms.
Fusu returned to the tent, opened the curtain, and put the box on the ground. He was still a little dazed.
He stared blankly at the box piled high with "food", feeling mixed emotions.
He really couldn't imagine that such a delicate thing could be used as food to fill the stomach?
Meng Tian stepped into the tent and saw Fusu at a glance, and the huge... box in his arms?
"Sir, are these all the crystal cores given by Miss Yu?" Meng Tian came forward excitedly, his voice filled with excitement that was hard to conceal.
He stretched his neck, wanting to see the true appearance of the crystal core. After all, it was a magical thing that could allow soldiers to stimulate their internal strength and split rocks with force!
However, when his eyes fell on the colorful and variously shaped "things" in the box, the smile on his face froze instantly, replaced by a look of confusion and astonishment.
This...what is this?
Countless question marks flashed through Meng Tian's mind. He had never seen such a "strange" crystal core.
There are small cubes that are brightly colored and beautifully packaged.
There are long "sticks" that emit an enticing aroma.
There are also cylindrical "jars" with strange patterns printed on them...
This doesn't look like a crystal core at all, it looks more like... a toy for children to play with!
