There was a boy on the volcanic island named Papal.

At the age of sixteen, having never read a single day, Papal grew up listening to mythological stories, and over time he had developed an inherent understanding that the world should be like that.

It wasn't until the arrival of the chief that there was another white girl on the island, which made the young man named Papal puzzled, but he didn't think it was too strange, after all, the old priest said that he was an apostle of the fishermen's god Kula, and it was normal to be a little weird, and he drank it very obediently, and no longer drank water directly from the river.

It didn't take long for the days of peace to be stable.

A few days ago, I heard that outsiders were not allowed to be driven away in the future, and Papal did not take it seriously, but for the first time in his life, he took a bath with soap, and felt that his whole body smelled very good, and afterwards he was given a pot and a new mosquito net at home.

As soon as there were no fishing nets, Papal cut off part of the mosquito nets and made a shrimp trap, and yesterday he actually caught three large lobsters and brought them to the fishing boat in exchange for a third of the soap, which made the boy extremely satisfied.

He also followed the orders of the chief of Kula, and went to the woods to cut down trees, gather palm leaves, weave roofs, and build houses that were said to be temporary habitation for outsiders, who would bring more exotic supplies.

At this moment.

Papal, dressed in a linen crotch cloth and with a thin body, was carrying a sandalwood tree stripped of its bark, and when he met a group of people approaching, he hurriedly stepped aside.

His eyes were blank, and he was curiously looking at the strangely dressed outsiders, some of whom were still holding a small white stick in their mouths, and they kept smoking.

In the past, Papal was free and happy, and the big guys were the same, except to compare who ate better, whose house was more spacious, who hunted more prey, and so on, but now Papal was a little ashamed, because his clothes were not as beautiful as those of outsiders, and the straw sandals on his feet were all mud, and they were not as good as their shoes, and the craft of weaving straw shoes, which he was once proud of, suddenly looked dull.

Lin Xiaobao took a dose of fierce medicine, and many things that he was accustomed to had a huge impact on the residents of the island, especially the young people.

Papal didn't know what many of his companions thought, in fact, it was similar to him, the volcanic island ushered in reform, and suddenly intersected with the outside world, and for the time being, I don't know whether it was good or bad, anyway, the days are gradually becoming different, this is already certain.

It didn't take long to go.

A young man named Papal met the chief who had rushed back with the tourists, and Lin Xiaobao saw that this thin little guy was carrying such a long piece of sandalwood, so he helped out.

This moved Papal, who was in a depressed mood, and hurriedly shook his head and refused, telling him that he had the strength to carry it.

Occasionally see Chief Kula and talk to the mysterious and strange outsiders.

For some reason, Papal was not so depressed again, and felt that the great new chieftain Kula was far more powerful than these outsiders, and was proud of it, and walked happily towards the construction site.

There is a lot of uphill road to the mining area, and it is slightly easier to come back.

But Lin Xiaobao was still tired, at first glance, he saw that there were so many unfamiliar faces in Haiwang Village, and in his eyes, they were all "walking ATMs", and after settling down the mining tourists, he returned to his own thatched hut palace first.

After reading it, he found that there were a lot of extra supplies at home, Lin Xiaobao sat on the broken sofa that he moved back from the freighter, making a creaking sound, and he asked Mona, "Where is Delia?"

"She said she was going to a party. Mona replied.

As soon as I heard it, I knew that I was probably going to plan a bonfire party, which was also one of the travel programs proposed by Lin Xiaobao himself before, and it was a pity that he didn't prepare more drinks.

The kitten picked up and adopted from the outside, the milk meowed, bold and not afraid of people, climbed on the sofa and drilled into Lin Xiaobao's arms, it looked very pleasing, Lin Xiaobao rubbed its chin, and the little guy obediently raised his head and squinted, obviously liked it.

"What about Reverend Caporeni, have you gone to other islands with the fishing boats? I just looked over the surface of the sea, and the fishing boats seem to have left. ”

Lin Xiaobao just said.

He understood that Mona's language ability had deteriorated, and she was still adjusting for a short time, so when he saw her nodding, he didn't embarrass Mona anymore.

The weather was hot, the smell of sweat all over the body, after a short break to drink some coconut water, afterwards the pool as a bath, wash and change clothes, and then go to receive other tourists who came to the volcanic island, specially put on the small crown, used to show the status.

-------------------------------------

The old priest of Caporeni did go out with the fishing boat to buy it, intending to sell the seafood in the cabin by the way.

When Delia met, she said to Lin Xiaobao, "I handed over the purchase list you left to the old pastor, and all the money I earned in the past few days was also given to him. Having just ordered the villages to send gold and silver coins over the last night, the old priest of Caporeni told me that there were antique dealers on the island, and he feared that the villagers would suffer. ”

In the past, the gold, silver and jewels were useless on the island, and many villagers kept some in their homes, but Delia already knew their value, and the old priest knew it too, so he was ready to collect them and dispose of them in a unified manner.

Of course, there are only a few in the village, and most of the treasures that were collected by pirates a century ago were later devoutly offered to the gods.

To be honest, even the chief Lin Xiaobao didn't know the exact location, let alone the specific scale, he only knew that there must be, and there should be a lot, after all, in order for him to stay, plus he went to Honolulu a few days ago, the old priest had already taken out a total of more than forty gold coins and more than thirty silver coins.

Hearing that the antique dealer came, Lin Xiaobao didn't feel strange at all, and said with a smile: "The volcanic island is like a natural folk museum, you send people to keep an eye on the antique dealer, so that the villagers don't sell valuable things cheaply, and can take them to us to exchange materials." ”

Most of them are old gadgets with a history of one or two hundred years, and it is impossible to say how valuable they are, at least Lin Xiaobao has only seen Delia's necklace, as well as the scepter, crown and other items that fell into his hands.

If he has the opportunity, he wants to exchange these things for a batch of more practical materials, especially power generation equipment and signal base stations, etc., and tourists have complained to him that mobile phones cannot be used, there is no air conditioning fan, etc.

The old objects on the island were deceived by antique dealers, Lin Xiaobao would feel very lost, and he wouldn't think so when it came to his own hands, so he was a little disciplined, and he definitely didn't take it in vain.

Delia also felt that it was better to keep an eye on the antique dealer.

Her deceased father was the chief, her grandfather was the chief, her great-grandfather, and her great-great-grandfather were all chiefs, and the volcanic island was her own island in her eyes, and now it belonged to Lin Xiaobao.

The idea is inevitably overbearing, feeling that they are all the chief's people, and their things are also the chief's things, and they gradually fall into the eyes of money, and they don't want to suffer at all.

After remembering something, he told Lin Xiaobao and said, "By the way, the jeweler you mentioned didn't come, but a woman gave me money and asked me to take them to a place where sapphires are mined......"
