“Have you been trafficked? Is there any danger? Is there anything I can do to help you?” Zha asked with concern.
Ye Jiu was his friend, and moreover, a female who needed protection, so Zha naturally cared a lot.
In the Beastman World, although there was no trafficking, there were plundering.
Therefore, each female would have dozens or even hundreds of males, not only to strengthen themselves but also for their own safety.

“There’s no danger for the moment, I’m just missing some things, so it’s a bit difficult to escape from here,” Ye Jiu replied.
Zha was silent for a while, then suddenly gave Ye Jiu a bead.
Ye Jiu looked up, “This is…”
“This is a Mermaid Pearl, very precious. I got it from a Shark Person in exchange for three daggers last time I passed by the seaside. If you keep this bead in your mouth, you can stay underwater for up to a day without breathing. I hope it will help you escape,” Zha explained.
Shark People live in the ocean, and each one of them leaves behind a bead after death. However, the Shark People venerate these beads and rarely use them for trade, so they are extremely precious.
If it weren’t for possession of such a divine tool as daggers, he probably wouldn’t have been able to exchange them from the Shark People.
Shark People, unlike Beastmen, do not have the sharp claws of Beastmen, hence they require these sharp objects to aid them.
Actually, the last time Zha urgently sought Ye Jiu, it was to exchange more daggers for Mermaid Pearls, but he couldn’t contact Ye Jiu.
He had only four daggers in total, three of which he had used for trade, leaving him with just one.
Now, having given the Mermaid Pearl to Ye Jiu, Zha didn’t have one himself but felt that Ye Jiu needed the bead even more than he did.
“Thank you, you’ve really helped me out a lot.” Ye Jiu had plenty of daggers, and without a second thought, he sent over a dozen to him.
Mermaid Pearls, once believed to exist only in legends, turned out to be real.
Out of kindness, Ye Jiu asked Zha if he had reached the conditions to search other Planes.
After all, from his own Plane’s experience, meeting the initial requirements to search other Planes wasn’t difficult, but the subsequent requirements were probably increasingly challenging.
It was only through this inquiry that Ye Jiu learned that Zha’s Plane did not have the capability to actively search, but could only be passively searched by others.
Ye Jiu suddenly felt that his own luck wasn’t all that bad; in this world, there were many whose luck was worse than his.
After a good night’s sleep, early in the morning, Ye Jiu took his basket and went out.
Although vegetables were generally supplied by someone in this area, some small items still needed to be personally picked and purchased.
After striving for such a long time, Ye Jiu was fortunate to have taken over this responsibility.
Just don’t assume that going out to buy means easy profits. How much money was spent, how the vegetable prices were, and how much was bought—all had to be reported upon return. Moreover, every few days, Mrs. Xun would personally go out once, so even if falsified, one couldn’t make much, and Ye Jiu wasn’t interested in such petty gains.
Only after taking over this responsibility did Ye Jiu understand why Mrs. Wang was eager to bring him out and relinquish this task.
It really was too trivial; bargaining for vegetables and accounting for expenses were necessary, or else one couldn’t justify the costs to Mrs. Xun. How much did one buy? How much was used? What were the prices? Having to remember all this was more trouble than simply staying home and doing honest work.
