Chapter 17 Inquire about news

 17. Ask for news

While the engineering robots were renovating the spacecraft, Quinto and Truda chatted. They were old acquaintances.

"Speaking of which, where did Felasi go? Why didn't he come with you?" Truda asked, "The people over there look unfamiliar."

He pointed at Cunte, Tang Xiao and others.

"They are my new... uh..." Quinto began to think about what to say. He couldn't say that Felaci was kept as a hostage on the Dawn Planet by Tang Xiao with good food and drink, right?

"Partner." Cunte said afterward.

"Ah yes, partner!" Quinto quickly agreed.

"Okay, you have to clean your own butt. I have already notified Jabba, and his people should be here soon," Truda said.

"Hey old man! Why did you trick me! I just arrived on Tatooine and I have to drink a glass of water!" Quinto complained.

Truda laughed sinisterly and said: "We all work for Jabba, you should know this."

Sure enough, just as they were talking, a few people dressed as bounty hunters came outside. As soon as they entered the door, they shouted: "Quinto! Come out here! Where is the thing Jabba wants?"

Quinto was trembling with fright. He glanced at Tang Xiao with pleading eyes but didn't get any response. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Okay, I'll be there right away... right away."

"You guys, unload the cargo and load it up! Jabba wants these things!" Another Twi'lek mercenary shook a blaster rifle in his hand and pointed at Tang Xiao and shouted.

This blaster rifle looks like military supplies at first glance. It is much more high-end than the cheap DL-18 blaster pistols in the hands of Quinto and his team. No wonder they are so good at it.

T-850 took a step forward, wanting to show off this provocative guy. But Tang Xiao stopped him and said, "Okay, let's load the goods!"

With that said, he didn't mind being dirty and tired. He walked into the cargo hold of the spaceship, carried a large box out and put it on a 'Banza II' floating cargo boat. Several bounty hunters looked at Tang Xiao and the others with their hands behind their backs the whole time.

Busy working. Then one of them threw Quinto a handful of gold coins and walked away.

Quinto nodded and said loudly: "Hey!! This is only 2,000 Upi! Didn't we agree on 5,000?!"

Upi Upi coins are the currency circulating on Tatooine. Tatooine is in the Outer Rim Star Region and is within the sphere of influence of the Hutts. The credits of the Galactic Republic are not recognized. This kind of unofficial

Currency is the real hard currency.

But the bounty hunters did not stop. One of them turned around and mocked, "It would be nice to give you money! Just keep it, you useless mufu milker, hahahaha."

Quinto's expression changed several times. He waited until the cargo boat was far away before he raised his middle finger in that direction and said, "A bunch of Bantha bastards!"

The villager was very free and easy. He walked over and hugged Quinto's shoulders, shook him and said, "It's okay. Isn't there some money left here? Let's just do a few jobs then. When our colony is completed,

By then, there will be plenty of work to do, and you won’t have to look at Jabba’s face anymore.”

"Jabba..." As soon as he mentioned this name, Quinto's head lowered.

"Let's go and find a place to have a drink. I'll treat you." Cunt said.

"In the end, it's not my money, I just ask for it." Quinto smiled bitterly and shook his head.

They entered the city of Mos Eisley all the way. This city had no planning at all, no designated roads, only miscellaneous houses and shanties, just like an oversized slum.

There are all kinds of different alien races on the road, all of them are wearing cloaks to protect themselves from the hot sun. Some people are selling strange products, and some people are asking if there is a job, or they are holding weapons.

A mercenary leaning against the wall, waiting for business to come to him.

Usually those mercenaries try their best to put on a fierce expression and try to make themselves look more powerful.

At this time, a cylindrical robot that looked like a bamboo pole walked through the street carrying several Quarren heads. Pedestrians on the road retreated, and the ferocious-looking mercenaries ran the fastest.

Some passers-by were still whispering to each other, "Look, it's those Quarren from the Iron Fish Gang! They robbed Jabba's cargo ship a few days ago..."

Quinto also pulled Tang Xiao, who was watching curiously, out of the way. He whispered: "This is IG-41, a bounty hunter under Jabba. Stay away from it, any behavior it considers to be preventing the mission

It will shoot directly."

Tang Xiao didn't say anything. He glanced at the robot, turned around, and followed Quinto to a bar in Mos Eisley. There was a mix of good and bad, all kinds of robots and aliens, working for their lives.

With the little income I earned, I bought some cheap alcoholic drinks and vented my excess energy.

The Quarren, who look like squids, the Gamorreans, who look like a big wild boar, are almost human-like but have two tentacles on their heads, and the Twi'leks of different skin colors... this place is like a rare zoo.

Cunt was also very new to this place. As soon as he entered the bar, he asked Quinto to get some change and wandered around. Soon he hooked up with a Twi'lek woman and started drinking happily.

But Tang Xiao went straight to the large oval bar in the middle of the bar, called the bartender, ordered a glass of wine and drank it in sips. At the same time, he threw out a Upi Upi coin and whispered: "I want to know about the sky.

News about the traveler family."

The bartender calmly put away the coins, and while wiping the plates, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "They live in Mos Espa Port, and are slaves of a Toydarian garbage dealer, Walter -

He won this by gambling from Gardura the Hutt, and it has been rumored for a long time."

Tang Xiao took out another coin and pushed it over, "I want to go find them, do you have any suggestions?"

The bartender once again put away the coins and placed the plates neatly one by one. At the same time, he said: "Mos Espa Port is the territory of Gadula the Hutt. You know, the two Hutts, Jabba and Gadulla."

The relationship between people...haha. You work for Jabba, you know what will happen."

This place is indeed a mixed bag of fish and dragons. No one can believe it, Tang Xiao thought to himself. He was taken away by Jabba's people as soon as he arrived on this planet, and the people here actually got the news so quickly.

Tang Xiao weighed the last Upi Upi coin in his hand and was about to say something. Suddenly he felt a strong force pushing him aside. He frowned and was about to get angry. When he turned around, he saw only one

The drunk man, who was obviously drunk, was lying on the bar next to him, snorting the pungent smell of alcohol and saying: "Hey! What about you, little fanpi! What do you think, do you want to cooperate with me to make some money?"

As soon as he heard about the money, Tang Xiao made a gesture to stop the T-850 who was about to take action, and asked: "Tell me, what can you do?"

"Hahahaha! Looking at your delicate skin and tender flesh, your family must have money, right? Hiccup~~~! I kidnapped you, and then you asked your family for money to redeem you, how about it? Hahahaha~~~~

Hiccup~~~!!" The drunkard laughed as he said it, and several people who were probably with him at another table next to him also laughed in agreement.
