Chapter 172: Wan Xiao

Ye Qiong wanted to ask directly, but suddenly remembered the dragon's warning, and changed his tone and asked, "Magino, do you know where to find reliable information?" ”

"Asking for news?" Magino looked at Ye Qiong suspiciously, and said, "Do you have anything important?" ”

Ye Qiong nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes, I have a very important friend, I want to inquire about him." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"That's ......," Magino thought for a moment, and said, "We in Windmill Village have learned about the sea from the newspapers, maybe you can go to 'Wanxiao'." ”

"Wan Xiao?"

"Yes, 'Wan Xiao' is a strange merchant group that has only appeared in the last two years, and they are active in the dark bazaars all over the world, unlike other merchant groups...... They don't sell goods or goods, they sell information. ”

Ye Qiong was surprised, "A merchant who sells news and materials? ”

Magino nodded, "Well, I also learned from the pirates who drank here, and it is rumored that Wan Xiao has a lot of information and materials on the sea in his hands, almost everything is known, and the authenticity is also very high." ”

"Cut, I don't believe it." Perona pouted, "Could it be that Wan Xiao even knows the important secrets of the navy?" ”

"For this, Wan Xiao seems to rely on pricing to control." Magino said slowly, "I don't know exactly. ”

Wan Xiao...... Since they dare to sell information openly, it should not be a complete deception. Ye Qiong pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there a 'Wan Xiao' here?" ”

Magino thought for a moment and said, "We don't have it in Windmill Village, but there is a Wanxiao sub-base in the bustling commercial underground shopping mall of Dawn Island. ”

"Okay then." Ye Qiong's eyes flickered slightly, and he directly dragged Perona out of the tavern.

"Sir!" Magino exclaimed, and she chased after the stack of Bailey in her arms, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Toy, your Bailey." ”

"It's your Bailey." Ye Qiong didn't look back, waved his hand and said, "Magino, see you soon!" ”

"By the way, when Shanks rescued Luffy back, he spoke to him for me and said, 'Thank you for taking care of him for a month, I'll leave first, and I'll have the opportunity to invite him to drink in the future.' ”

After saying this, Ye Qiong and Perona disappeared from the door together and were never seen again.

"Mr. Toy......" Magino muttered, leaning against the bar with a full Bailey in her arms, staring at the empty doorway in a daze, as if something had been hollowed out.

……

Half a day later, Dawn Island, business district.

The two of them, one large and one small, wrapped in black robes, walked through the bustling underground streets, with the dim lights overhead, their faces completely shrouded in shadow.

"Toys, why are we wearing this?" Perona grumbled a little, swinging the hem of her black robe uncomfortably.

Ye Qiong teased, "Well, who made you look so much like a young girl, you and I came here in normal clothes, and others thought I was a human trafficker." ”

Perona gritted her teeth and said angrily, "People are originally young girls...... Ah, no! ”

Although the two of them are dressed a little strangely hidden, the underground streets have always been a gathering place of three factions and nine streams, with pirates, navies, pirate hunters, merchants, spies from various countries, revolutionaries, etc., not to mention black robes, and there are not a few people with strange masks.

Ignoring the sales pitch of the merchants along the way, Ye Qiong pulled Perona directly to Wanxiao's stronghold.

It took a lot of effort for Ye Qiong to find Wan Xiao's location in the alley, and it seemed that in order to avoid the crowds on the street, Wan Xiao's stronghold chose to be established in a dark and hidden place.

Ye Qiong only turned a corner in the alley, and the noise of the bustling main street not far away could no longer be heard.

A sliding door similar to a tavern, the signboard is simple and clear with three words - "Wan Xiaotong".

"Toys, it's a little strange here, do you want my little whites to explore the way." Perona frowned.

"What's so weird, we're just here to buy news." Ye Qiong shook his head, pushed open the door and stepped in.

The lights inside are much brighter, and the space is much more spacious than expected, with two stepped passages branching off, one "selling" and one "buying".

"Welcome, both." A young man dressed in white stepped forward and asked, "My name is Ai Inxi, are you here to sell news or buy news?" ”

Ye Qiong said strangely, "In addition to selling news here, Wan Xiao will also buy news?" ”

"Of course." Ainxi nodded, "If there is some valuable information, we will also evaluate and sell it." ”

"How do you buy and sell news?" Perona snorted, "If I sell the news to you and share it with others, won't it be worthless?" Or maybe the news is half-true, what should you do? ”

"Don't worry." Ai Enxi narrowed his eyes and said as if he had a deep meaning, "In the past two years, there have indeed been such things, but they have been solved smoothly. ”

Ye Qiong bowed slightly, if Wan Xiao didn't have any strength, how could he guarantee the authenticity of the news and ensure the credibility of the information.

He said directly, "I want to buy news." ”

"Second floor, please." Ai Sixi raised his hand and invited the two of them up to the second floor.

There are also forks on the second floor, with three categories: "people", "things" and "things".

Ainshi explained, "If you want to know a person's details, background, strength, connections, etc., you choose someone; If you want to know the value and whereabouts of treasure maps, famous swords, precious handicrafts, etc., you can choose things; If you want to know about the environmental situation, information, or rumors about the situation on the sea in a certain place, you should choose it. ”

"Do you really know everything?" Ye Qiong frowned.

"Of course." Ainshi chuckled, "Our news is set by price, and if it's a hidden information that we don't even know, it's an absolute sky-high price." ”

"Isn't that a lie?" Perona snorted coldly.

"Customers have the right to choose whether to buy or sell information." Ai Enxi said lightly, completely looking like he loved to buy or not.

"You guy!" Perona clenched her small fists.

"Alright." Ye Qiong thought about it and pulled Perona towards the "thing".

At the end, there were only a few chairs in front of a small open window, surrounded by black iron pillars and guardrails, and it was impossible to see if there was anyone inside.

"The material of Hailou Stone." Perona looked at the guardrail and wrinkled her nose with disgust.

After Ye Qiong and Perona sat on their chairs, a neutral voice came from the small window, "If you want to know something, write it on the card." ”

"It's hidden."

Ye Qiong shrugged, took a card and pen at the window, wrote "O'Hara Island" and handed it in.

Soon, a card popped up:
