Chapter 32: Guina (I)

On the dock of Red Leaf Village, a group of weather-covered and rough porters and sailors are squatting or sitting around William, listening to him talk about the copycat version of the Water Margin.

This bad embryo changed the names and backgrounds of the characters, and it became the story of the pirate captain and his one hundred and eight pirates across the sea, of course, it was inevitable to add some private goods, and tell more about the story of the court, that is, the "nobles of the kingdom" and the "world government" who oppressed the good and forced the good to add fuel and vinegar to the story of the good.

The smuggling business was on the right track, with a group producing alcohol and alcoholic beverages in Momiji Village, and Sherlock using the connections of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce to pull fleets of ships, sometimes even directly under the banner of the Chamber of Commerce, and eventually transport them to local pharmacies for sale, while bribing local officials with money and high-end liquor inflated by Prohibition, these feudal bureaucrats were not afraid of the corruption of alcohol and money, and easily allowed a group of people to establish a local trade network.

As the cargo travels to and from the sea, William, Alamis, Akin, Wallon, and Edmund follow the cargo ship in shifts to guard against pirates and even other competitors.

William was never idle at this time, he was a sociable man, and with his status, he easily mingled with all kinds of people on the ship and on the docks, from the captain to the porters and sailors, he knew almost everyone, and he also had an account book in his heart about those who could be trained.

This process is the process by which William cultivated his own network.

The profits from the smuggling business have allowed William to accumulate a lot of money, and with the connections he has saved in this year, he can pull up people at any time and purchase a big ship to go to sea, if it weren't for his intention to learn swordsmanship in the dojo and continue to accumulate and improve his strength.

When it comes to the people on the ship and the docks, it is the porters and sailors who like William the most, because he is strong and has a high status, but he has no shelves, unlike those captains and merchants, who basically hide in their own special cabins as soon as they get on the ship, but often smoke and chat with them.

William was not a wealthy man in his previous life, so it was easy to get along with these low-level laborers.

Most of these dock workers and ordinary sailors have little education, their level of education is not very high, and they are very illiterate.

On the one hand, it is because of the novelty, and on the other hand, there is no lack of cunning, hoping to make an impression in front of William, the boss.

After William finished telling the adapted story of Lin Chong running at night, a group of listeners commented one after another.

A sailor said with an unhappy face: "That navy named Wood is too sloppy, and his wife can't protect him, if it weren't for the chance to hear the secret talk, it is estimated that he would have dreamed of starting over!"

The companion next to him retorted: "You don't talk about the wind and cold, but people are Tianlong people, it is estimated that standing in front of you, you will kneel on the ground in fear." ”

The man before argued: "I'm just an ordinary person, but I'm a vice admiral, and I'm still the chief instructor of the headquarters, I must be very powerful, if I want to be as powerful as him, I'll first punch that bullshit Tianlong man, and then kill the navy headquarters and be a sea thief who is happy and vengeful!"

Others were disdainful of his obscenity: "Hey, that's a great thing." ”

Another sailor pondered and discussed, "You say that the Draconians have so much power, so what will happen if the naval hero Karp accidentally provokes the Draconians? Will he end up with the same fate as Wood?"

The crowd was in a heated argument again, but William didn't join in, because he had already seen that the figures of Ah Jin and the others had appeared from the end of the dock.

"Why are you late?" said William, standing up from the crate, and asked aloud to Arkin.

The ship's cargo had already been moved, and if it weren't for the people who were waiting for the ship's balrusher to come, it wouldn't have been anchored for so long, and William wouldn't have had time to sit around the dock and tell stories to the group.

Just waiting for Ah Jin and the others to get closer, William knew why they were late, a little girl with neat short black hair was being carried on her back by Wallon.

The little girl was only ten years old, a little thin and thin, holding a knife that was too long for her, and as soon as she saw William, she raised her head, which had been buried in Wallon's back, and exclaimed menacingly: "William!"

"Guina, why are you here?" William only smiled mildly at first, but when his eyes fell on the knife in the girl's hand, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and his tone became a little stern, "Why did you still bring out the 'Harmony Text'!"

Guina is the daughter of Koshiro, the owner of the Ichishin Dojo, but Koshiro doesn't take much special care of his only child in the dojo on weekdays, whether it is daily training or guidance, he treats him equally.

Although the Wadoichi text is an item of Koshiro, it stands to reason that it will also be a Guina thing in the future, and she can use it as she pleases, but the distance between Momiji Village and Frost Moon Village is not close, and a ten-year-old child holding this kind of treasure knife is also in danger of being stolen or robbed, William knows this, and he also knows the value of Wadoichi writing to swordsmen.

"I'm here to challenge you!" Guina struggled to jump off Wallon's back, and as soon as she landed, she let out a cry of pain and sat down on the ground.

Ah Jin on the side explained: "Guina broke her foot on the way here, and I wanted to send her back to the dojo, but she made trouble for a long time, and Wallon's roots were too soft, so I carried her over. ”

Guina said angrily: "Ah Jin is a bad guy, Wallon is not soft-eared, he is a good person." ”

When Wallon heard this, he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, trying to help Guina up, but Guina refused.

Gu Yina stood up with her sword very strong, and said to William with a tense face: "Today I want to challenge you again and defeat you, I am the strongest disciple in the dojo!"

"Nonsense!" William shook his head.

Guina said unconvinced: "I specially brought the 'Harmony Text' today, just to win your ......." ”

Before she could finish her sentence, William had already pulled the sheath of the knife from his waist and struck it on the 'Wado One Script' that Guina was acting as a crutch.

Guina couldn't react, and her strength was not as strong as William's, and William knocked the "Harmony Text" out of her hand, and she herself fell heavily on the solid surface of the dock.

However, although Guina is only a ten-year-old girl, she is far stronger than her peers, and her arms and knees are broken, but she doesn't care, she just raises her head angrily and says to William: "You sneak attack!"

"In actual combat, do you expect the enemy to listen to you Rory talk so much?" William tilted his head, "And do you know what you call it?
