Chapter 13 Going to the Market

The next day, the morning sun just showed a glimmer of light. Qiao Luo was drowsily doing unspeakable and shameful things with Mengya in his sleep. Suddenly, the sky and the earth spun, the dream collapsed instantly, and the sweet dream disappeared without a trace.

trace!

For a person who is angry when getting out of bed, it is such an "irritating" thing to be interrupted in the middle of a sweet dream. Just when he is about to get angry, after he sees who the person is, his anger disappears instantly, and he suddenly

He said with a smile.

"It's Grandpa Sam." Is there anything important in waking me up so early?

Sam said to Qiaoluo: You guys had too much fun last night. Have you forgotten what I told you yesterday? Today is the day I need to take you to the market. Go to the ship office and wait. You’re late.

But we have to wait until another month!

Qiaoluo patted his head and said to Sam: Look, I almost forgot about this; I'm so sorry!

In the past, Qiaoluo only helped transport goods to the dock. Just last night, Sam said that he would take Qiaoluo to the market. After saying that, he immediately jumped out of the bamboo bed and hurriedly got down, ready to go.

Ships are rushing.

Sam hurriedly stopped Qiaoluo and said: Don't worry, why are you going there in such a hurry? We are going to the market, not shopping. If we don't take the things on the island to replace some daily necessities, why are we going there empty-handed? Looking at the air?

Seeing Sam's scoldings, Mr. Qiao could only pretend not to hear. He had no choice but to call this old man Mengya's grandfather. As the saying goes: a man's hand is short and his mouth is soft, not to mention our Qiao.

The young master has been thinking about her granddaughter for a long time.

So he smiled and said: Yes, yes! I will go and take the specialties from the island to the ship. After saying that, I turned around and left.

Wait! Go and take the tiger skin you peeled off yesterday. This is a solid white tiger skin. It will definitely sell for a good price in the market! It can just be enough to buy you and Mengya some new clothes.

"I know", after replying, Qiaoluo quickly went to prepare for the market...!

The sun is rising! Qiaoluo stood on the bow of the boat and looked at the sea. Looking at the endless sea, he felt particularly comfortable. He looked at the rippling blue waves, enjoying the sea breeze blowing on his cheeks and the gentle sun bathing his body. What do you think?

Today should be one

A good day.

How wonderful it is to just be in a daze quietly like this! The sky, the sea, and the people, everything is so harmonious and natural. I really hope that time can solidify at this moment, and the years will be peaceful!

After a long time, the harmonious scene in front of me was broken by a voice, "Hey"! Old man Sam, it seems that you have gained a good harvest this time! There is actually a high-quality tiger skin, and it is also a pure white tiger skin. This thing is in the market.

It's a hot commodity. I think you will be able to exchange it for a lot of good things this time. You can even take it to the Chamber of Commerce. Maybe they will take a fancy to it. No one can say that, right?

Qiaoluo followed the sound and looked at the man. It turned out to be the helmsman of the ship. When he got on the boat, Sam introduced the specific situation of the ship to Qiaoluo. It turned out that the ship was nearby.

Arranged by the Chamber of Commerce, it is equivalent to the shuttle bus in the previous life. It will dispatch such ships to the nearby waters regularly every month. As for the purpose, of course you know, it is to collect some specialties of the New World and then sell them to the world's nobles at high prices.

La.....!

The equipment on the ship is nothing more than a few sailors. As for the guards? No one, please! This is not a prince or noble, arranging some guards. It is the most normal thing for people to die in the new world.

Aren't you afraid of pirate robbery? You have to know that the surrounding islands are not only rich in specialty products, but there are several iron mines. According to old man Sam, this area is under the jurisdiction of the Chamber of Commerce, which can be regarded as a neutral area in the New World.

area, and the Chamber of Commerce will send a certain amount of annual tribute to the four emperors of the New World every year, so the four emperors have no control over this place. They also claim that this is their common territory and is protected by the four emperors!

Some people may ask why the Yonko doesn't put these places under his own name! Come on, this is the world of pirates. Do you go to the Yonko to buy things? Ordinary goods can be sold to you for one million beli.

Do you dare to make a counteroffer? Give it a try...

The businessmen here are not the kind of businessmen who just speculate and sell other people's things at high prices. Of course, this kind of thing definitely happens, but he drives the economy of many industries, such as the transportation industry. His goods require trucks.

For transportation, his people also need to take cars. It is also a way to spread various information. It can also increase tax revenue for the government...

Therefore, there was a scene of peaceful coexistence at this time, so that the four emperors felt at ease.

I think of myself as a rent collector who doesn't care about anything.

Sam replied to the helmsman: Ah! It turns out to be Lambton, haha! Thanks to you, I will treat you to a bottle of your favorite rum after selling something this time!

Lamb immediately burst into laughter: Then I must thank this tiger for giving me the opportunity to drink delicious rum.

Sam also laughed loudly: Isn't it?

Qiao Luo complained secretly on the side: Thank you tiger, the one you should thank most is me. If it were not for the principle of keeping a low profile, I would have shocked your jaws to the point of dislocation!

But on the surface, I still acted like I was going with the flow!,,,,,,

Sam then said from the side: Thanks to the little brother I brought here this time! If he hadn't discovered the seriously injured white tiger, we might not have had such a big harvest this time. He turned his attention to Qiao Luo

.

Qiao Luo looked confused. Sir, you don't have such a silent diss. At least you can give me a look to let you know. With this sudden diss, do you want me to give you a freestyle on the spot?

..!

At this time, can Qiao Luo be stumped by this? Obviously no!

Just like that, he started to perform Oscar-like acting skills for everyone!

"Ah", you said tiger, I was just lucky enough to see it. Look, God must have seen that my grandfathers worked too hard, so he sent a tiger to me. I just helped to carry it.

.

After saying that, he revealed a pair of sparkling eyes and winked at everyone... It's shameful to act cute!

Lambton: Sam, this can't be your illegitimate son. I didn't expect you to bloom like an old tree, and a dead tree can spring back to life! Hahaha!

Sam returned: I think so, but I have to agree with others. By the way, this kid is also a hard-luck man. He went out on a boat and met pirates. Fortunately, he drifted to Taoyuan Island. This time, he took him to the market.

I want to get some news about his family.

When Sam heard this, he said to Qiaoluo: What an unlucky guy. I hope you can get some useful information when you go to the market this time. Good luck to you, little guy. After saying that, he walked to the bow of the ship and started to steer.

Control the sailing trajectory of the ship...!
