For the explanation they had to rewind the time to an hour ago when they arrived at the Feather and Dust tribe.
When Feng Jue arrived at the tribe hall, he was first hugged tightly by his very concerned mother who had been missing him for the past three weeks. Their reunion was something that neither Mo Qiang nor Mo Xifeng had seen before.
As per the guidelines of the tribe's law upon seeing Feng Jue arrive with the precious treasure, the rest of the tribe members rushed to their house and wore the accessories that they had gotten after finishing their tasks in the human world.
While Feng Jue was led to the storehouse and was allowed to pick up accessories according to his liking. It was said to be his reward and he could keep it or sell it according to his will and the money earned from selling the accessories that he got as a reward would belong to him as pocket money.
By the time everything was done, Mo Qiang only saw figures shrouded with vibrant lights dancing around in the tribe hall. If not for the fact that Feng Jue asked her to wear light and UV protection glasses, Mo Qiang would have gone blind.
It was then did Mo Qiang realised that the Feather and Dust tribe was not poor but they had a lot of money that they had stashed in their storehouse and only took it out when it was an emergency.
Back to the present.
" Don't look at me like that, even if I am helping them in return for something, I am helping them out in the end and that's all that matters," said Mo Qiang as she looked at Mo Xifeng with a soft smug smirk. " The selling the accessories business would not take them far but with me helping them out, they would be able to get a stable source of income."
As Mo Qiang spoke, she walked over to the gooey-looking green slimes that were sticking out of the boulders and the ground. Even though she was standing at a distance she could see that the jelly-like substance was thumping as if there was a large heart beating inside each one of them.
" And in return, you promised them to hand three business routes. Tea, oil and another secret route," Mo Xifeng read the contract carefully, though she could not find any abnormalities in the contract the ingredients written on the contract were weird. " What do you mean by tea and oil? What are these things?"
She had never heard of something like tea and oil before.
" You have never heard of tea and oil? Goodness," Mo Qiang looked at Mo Xifeng with a smug look causing Mo Xifeng to clench her fist instinctively. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
' There she goes again, looking like she knows more than me,' thought Mo Xifeng in her head. Though she had to admit that Mo Qiang might know more than her she hated that super smug expression of her sister. Though Mo Xifeng knew that there was nothing that Mo Qiang could do about her looks still —— that smug face was asking to be hit.
" Don't even think about punching me, if you punch me then I will not tell you anything," Mo Qiang was well aware of her sister's habits. She knew that Mo Xifeng hated her smug face which was why she knew that the clenching of fingers meant that Mo Xifeng wanted to hit her.
Hearing Mo Qiang's words, Mo Xifeng heaved a sigh and then said, " If I don't punch you will you tell me?"
" First say please."
" Sister Qi," Mo Xifeng dipped her voice and sneered coldly, " You just sold my beauty as bait, I would suggest you not play with me."
" Ahem," Mo Qiang straightened up when she heard Mo Xifeng's words. She cleared her throat and then said, " Tea leaves are generally fragrant leaves that you drink. Some tea leaves help in treating insomnia while some help in energizing and some have calming effects as well. As for oil, you can say that it is used to cook food. Compared to boiling meat, sometimes using oil to cook it can enhance the taste."
Mo Qiang explained the uses of the two ingredients as for the last one, she did not know which ingredient she was going to find, so Mo Qiang couldn't tell Mo Xifeng about the properties of the last ingredients in the list.
