Act Two Hundred and Sixty Four The Affordable Price
"I rarely hear that mermaids and naga appear together. I wonder why? Bran!
Duo stood on the side of the boat and asked.
"It has nothing to do with you, human being!" Before Sanir could reply, the girl next to him immediately scolded her coldly with raised eyebrows. Only then did Brando notice that the girl only had a pair of jade arms, a graceful figure, and a similar shape.
The human woman was not a Naga, but she was a genuine mermaid girl. Looking at her, she was almost angry with embarrassment.
The mermaid clan is kind-hearted and never participates in plundering merchant ships. If the gray wax clan was not facing a critical moment of life and death, they would not break their promise and show up here. What makes Jenny angry is that this young man is still serious
Asking, "I rarely hear that mermaids and Nagas appear together, I wonder why?", she was so dumbfounded that she couldn't help gritting her teeth, fearing that the rumors would spread and the world would think that the mermaids were also bandits.
"It seems you are in some trouble too.
"Brando replied keenly.
"What do you want to say?" Sanir frowned.
"I just wanted to ask where we can help?" Brando asked tentatively.
Sanir hesitated for a moment, seeming to be a little moved, but as soon as his expression changed, Brando guessed that Gray Fin Naga must have encountered a real big trouble, otherwise how could the other party be so hesitant with his determination.
He searched and remembered the major events that happened in the Sea of Flashes during this period, and vaguely remembered the legendary "Western Sea War." However, the "Western Sea War" started earlier than the Black Rose War, and lasted from before the start of the game to the first
The curtain ends, and there are only a few introductions on the forum.
This is just a war that takes place on the border of Eruin, with almost no players outside civilization participating.
Brando thought for a while and said one step ahead of the other party: "Why don't we actually be businessmen, and there are mostly goods on the ship. If you need anything, we can discuss business on the spot. There is no need to stick to formalities when doing business." He wanted to make a deal.
What a Gray Wax Naga. Even Captain James can see it now. However, the young captain has some doubts about this: the other party is a famous pirate, and it is unclear whether he has credibility, not to mention Gray Wax Naga.
Not the strongest one on the Sea of Shining.
"That's nice to say." The mermaid girl spoke again. Her voice was nice, like she was singing, but she was very tricky: "Don't you call us robbers? If we say we want the goods on your ship,
Do you agree or not?"
After saying that, she stared at Brando. If this fake businessman said he wouldn't agree, then she would definitely ridicule him for not keeping his word. If he agreed, looking at the sparkling look in her eyes, she must have climbed up the pole.
.However, the mermaid girl knows that human businessmen have always been stingy and greedy, so she will probably find an excuse.
Unexpectedly, Brando didn't even think about it and replied directly: "It's not impossible to consider."
The mermaid girl's eyes widened in surprise, "Hey, human, don't you want to do business? How can anyone do business like you?" She decided that Brando was entertaining them, and couldn't help but ask.
"I heard that the war between the Naga tribes has intensified, and that there are proxy wars between the countries on the land. I will invest money in your war. If you win, I may also get a share of it.
Dividends. Even if it fails, all I lose is a shipment of goods, but I can also buy a favor, such a profitable business. Why don't I do it?" Brando asked.
When he said this, the mermaid girl immediately became alert and couldn't help raising her eyebrows and asked: "How do you know we are at war?"
"He lied to you." Sanir sighed. Although he was rigid, he was not stupid. The so-called "silly fish" was just a nickname given to him by Brando and others, saying that he didn't know how to adapt. He stretched out his hand to
The mermaid girl pulled her behind her, fearing that this stubborn witch would reveal all their secrets at once. If they had never heard of such a business, they would be in trouble.
The mermaid girl also reacted at this moment, and couldn't help but gritted her teeth and stared at Brando again. She had never seen such a hateful person. No wonder the elders in the tribe said that humans were cunning and cunning, and it was true.
Everyone behind Brando wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, especially Caglis. The young man now felt more and more that his lord was really cunning. I heard that the lord's fiancée was good at managing money and was the first-class
businessman, now it seems that this is just because of the family style. Only Antitina couldn't help but remind: "Lord..."
Brando nodded to her not to worry. He knew that this noble lady was afraid that she would suffer a loss. It was not a big deal to say that she lost a ship of goods, but if Brando really invested in a war, Tony Geer's finances would be
It will definitely not be able to support it. Of course, in fact, he is just talking, because he knows the future direction of history. The Gray Wax Naga does not say that he will unify the sea of glitter, but at least it will still exist decades later, which shows that this
Even if they didn't win the war, at least they didn't lose too badly.
What's more, even if Brando is willing to invest, Sanir and the legendary wisest queen of the Naga clan may not accept it. Everyone knows that there is no free charity in this world.
"Okay." Sanir finally figured it out and asked, "Human, do you have any medicinal materials on the ship?"
"Medicinal materials? Are any of you injured?" Brando keenly captured the key to the problem. There is no shortage of medicinal materials in the sea, but what the Naga clan lacks is alchemy. They must have had a big shot seriously injured. Ordinary clan members cannot
As for the use of the Sea Demon Whale and the Mermaid, he immediately thought of the death of the Naga Queen three years later, and thought that it might not be a disease at all, but that she died of serious injuries.
The Naga Queen has the power of civilized elements, and it is entirely possible that the serious injury may last three years. The more Brando thinks about it, the more he feels that his guess is the one closest to the truth.
"You ask too many questions." Sanir replied dissatisfied.
"Okay, let me guess. I heard that there are many rare medicinal materials under the deep sea. Ordinary injuries will definitely not trouble you. Although there are only some standing medicinal materials on the Far Earth, I heard that there are many medicinal materials on land.
Medical skills are far more advanced than those in the kingdom under the deep sea, and I happen to have some magical substitutes here that may be useful to you." Brando replied.
"What is that?" Sanir asked.
Brando has already taken out a small, translucent crystal bottle. This is a gift from Amman, his most precious gift, Holy Water No. 1. Not many bottles of Holy Water No. 1 have been produced from the beginning. This is
The top chief priest of the Temple of Fire and the alchemy wood master have to devote all their efforts to the work and it will take several months to complete. The two bottles in his hand may be the last remaining samples in the world. Brando decided
Take a gamble, if the injured person is really the legendary queen as he guessed, then the bottle of potion he sent will be worth the price. If not, then you will definitely lose all your money.
But now that he had taken it out, he would not look petty and threw the bottle worth ten thousand gold directly. Sanir took the No. 1 holy water with some doubts. Of course he recognized it as the water of life, but
The Nagas have been plundering Eruin merchant ships all year round and have a lot of holy water in stock. It's not that they have never used these holy waters, but they have no effect. The bottle of holy water in their hands is smaller than ordinary holy water, so it may have even less effect.
He raised his head and was about to question, but he didn't expect that the mermaid girl behind him had changed her expression. She snatched the No. 1 holy water from his hand, carefully removed the stopper and took a sniff, as if she had been electrocuted, and immediately took out the bottle again.
He stuffed it back. Sanir trembled when he saw the witch who followed him. He knew something was wrong. Although this person was a bit simple, his knowledge was inherited from the witch lineage.
This will happen for no reason.
"What's going on?" he couldn't help but ask.
"For example, if Lou guessed correctly... this should be Holy Water No. 1." The mermaid girl's voice was trembling as she whispered.
"Holy Water No. 1? What is that?" Sanir was puzzled.
"Let's put it this way... Lord Sanir, if there is an owner of the Sea of Glitter, you can buy half of the Sea of Glitter with just this bottle of holy water," Jenny replied with a weird expression.
"Ah?" Ner was also stunned at this time. He suddenly felt that what he just caught was not a bottle of potion, but a bombshell. Although it was not his first time to participate in the robbery, he had never seen Guigui before.
For goods of this level, Nagas are also selective in plundering merchant ships. They usually avoid the really large caravans and royal fleets, otherwise the navies of the countries around the Sea of Shining are not vegetarians.
"Can it be cured...?" Sanir couldn't help but stuttered and asked.
"That's enough! That's enough. You don't need that much at all, just a little is enough!" the mermaid girl replied happily.
Sanir fell silent for a moment, then he raised his head and looked at Brando: "Human, do you really want to give this to us? You know, we can't afford this price!"
"It doesn't matter." Brando replied as if he didn't care: "As I said before, I can invest in the part that I can't afford."
How to invest in a war? Sanir felt that this human being was becoming more and more mysterious. He had never seen anyone doing business like this before, but he thought for a moment and asked seriously: "So, what is your name, sir?"
"Just call me Brando, because what I am doing now makes it difficult to reveal my last name." Brando replied half-truthfully.
"I understand. Well, let me say it again here. I, Sanner, declare in the name of the Gray Wax family that from today onwards, the merchant ships sailing on this sea, as long as they are under the banner of your Excellency, will be under our jurisdiction."
Under the protection of the Gray Wax Nagas, any attack on these merchant ships will be regarded as a provocation to our Gray Wax Nagas, and we will respond with war."
Sanir's decisive voice echoed on the sea. As soon as he said this, it was Captain James's turn to change color. Sanir seemed to have repeated what he said before, but the meaning contained was completely different.
Nir's promise this time is obviously more formal and more detailed, and if what the other party says is true, it means that in the future, all merchant ships under Brando will have almost no possibility of being robbed on the Sea of Shining. Moreover,
As long as Gray Naga exists, this truth will continue for one day.
As a person who has been making a living at sea all year round, the young captain certainly understands the meaning contained in this. You must know that except for large caravans and royal fleets, the probability of ordinary merchant ships being robbed on the shining sea is as high as 5.
Merchants may face losing all their money at any time. However, with Sanir's promise, it is almost destined that Brando's merchant fleet will be able to compete with the famous large merchant groups in Ampelsel in the future.
.
If Brando intends to do business, then Nir gave Brando a deep look and added: "Not only that, if your "goods" are really as effective as you said, then I guarantee that,
As long as you do not do anything hostile to Gray Naga in the future, you will always be a friend of our clan in the future."
The implication is that if Brando withdrew his lie on the holy water, then the previous agreement would definitely be nothing. Sanir did not say it to death. After all, he still did not believe that a strange human being would make a promise for no reason.
Such a great benefit, since the witch said that this bottle of potion is worth half the sea of glitter, then the true value of this bottle of potion is worth half the sea of glitter. Sanir does not believe that any human being would be willing to give it to him like this.
Wealth is given away.
However, after the experiment, everything was determined. He signaled to the other Nagas, and then turned around and dived into the sea with the mermaid girl, leaving only a white wave trail on the sea surface.
The remaining Naga waited until the two of them disappeared completely, and then said to Brando and others: "Human friends, Master Sanir ordered us to escort you all."
Brando nodded, saying that escorting actually also meant surveillance, but as long as Sanir proved that the No. 1 holy water he gave was genuine, these Nagas would really escort them to Ampelsel with all their heart. It was for no reason.
Naturally, he was not unhappy about the guards, but compared to this, he had actually been observing Sanir's left shoulder before. He remembered that when he met Sanir for the first time in the future, there was a terrible scar there, but he couldn't see it now.
Realizing that it must have been left behind in this war, Brando originally wanted to remind the other party, but after thinking about it, he gave up. After all, for every soldier, the experience of the edge of life and death is still very precious.
He turned around and realized that the favor he had sold was not a big deal. The friendship with Naga was forged, which was an unexpected blessing in this industry. Thinking of this, Brando raised his head and saw the sailors setting sail and preparing to prepare.
Set sail again, while Captain James stood aside and said with envy: "Your Lordship is really doing good business."!
