Chapter 372: Twenty Years Later
The bandits' lair was located on a large reef in the waters of the Kingdom of Lordaeron near Fenris Island, and the first mate, Wiggins, went down with a few crew members, and soon turned the bandits' den upside down, and they returned to the ship with a small bag of gold coins. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The thieves who ravaged Lake Lordamere had little savings, and most of the merchants deposited their property in the bank before the ship, and most of the time they could only grab the goods, and because of the lack of formal trading channels, they had to sell the goods to the stolen goods at very low prices.
Loria took the bag and flipped it in her hand, and there were only a dozen gold coins in it.
"As an extra overtime pay, by the way, tell the captain that I will anchor here until I decide to leave."
She tossed the bag back to Wiggins, and with that she slipped into the cabin, refusing to come out until it was dark.
In the middle of the night, there was a slight paddling sound on the lake, and the sailor who was on patrol was very alert, and he immediately took his musket to check the direction from which the sound was coming from.
"Dom, go and rest."
Loria, who was holding a blanket, suddenly said behind the sailor.
"Miss, there's movement down there."
The sailor named Dom was so frightened by the sudden appearance of Loria that the musket in his hand almost went off.
"I see, go back to bed."
Loria raised her voice, and the sailor hesitated, but finally accepted her order, and descended into the cabin three times by turn.
Pink-haired Lori leaned on the side of the boat and looked down, and sure enough, she found a girl with a red fruit in the water.
"Come on."
Loria threw down the rope ladder and shouted softly down, "I'm the only one on deck." ”
Vanilla carefully dragged the rope ladder up to Class A, took the towel handed by Loria and wiped her body.
Every time I see the fruit of vanilla, I am now familiar with every part of her body...... Loria was also quite helpless, she rolled her eyes, waited for Vanilla to dry her body, and then threw the blanket to her, asking, "What does it feel like to die too much?" ”
Vanilla shivered and wrapped her body tightly in a blanket, she really couldn't stand the fact that she appeared in the water every time she was resurrected, it was fine in the summer, but now it was really early winter, and it was cold to death in the water, she thought for a while, and replied, "It hurts...... It doesn't seem to be too painful lately. ”
Pain is meant to warn of danger, but if death itself is no longer dangerous, does it really diminish?
At least Loria doesn't feel pain from minor cuts now, and minor cuts are no threat to her.
"What about the others?" Loria asked, "Is there anything else special?" ”
Vanilla wrapped herself in a blanket and walked towards the cabin, "No matter how special things are repeated more than thirty times, they will no longer be special, don't ask me these mysterious questions, I'm going to sleep...... If someone asks me why I came back from the dead, they say I'm my twin sister who died. ”
As a result, the twin sister of the dead handyman Vanilla Sauce, the namesake of Vanilla Sauce, becomes the new handyman on the ship.
Set sail early in the morning and drop anchor in another early morning.
Lordaeron's harbor on Lake Lordaeron was still some distance from the royal capital, but the city could be seen from the lake in good weather, and the passengers on the Rokha, the merchant and the first mate from the south, and a few crew members were the first to leave the ship.
By the time the dwarf first mate returned, the merchant had already left.
"No one wants to take it?"
Loria's pitch raised an octave, "What's wrong with Lordaren?" What happened when the king died and was imprisoned? ”
One of the many pieces of news that Wiggins brought was that no one wanted to imprison the robbers they caught.
"Miss, I've heard that the city is in chaos, and some people say that the northern border of Lordaeron has been lost...... They also say that the elven kingdom has been destroyed, gossip is flying everywhere, and no one has the heart to pay attention to a few hapless thieves...... The Lordaeron patron saint, the Knights of the Silver Hand, was handed over to three men after the death of Grand Master Uther: Duke Mograine, General Abydis, and Bishop Esenlien. The first mate of the dwarf relayed the information to Loria, and when he spoke of Duke Mograine, Loria raised an eyebrow, Wiggins did not notice Loria's abnormality, and he continued: "I don't think the chaos will last long, after all, it is the invincible hand of silver......"
"There is no invincible legion in the world, Mr. Wiggins, please go to Mr. Captain, repeat what you have just told me, let us sell our goods quickly, and return home with the specialties of Lordaeron, as for the pirates, we cannot let them go, nor kill them...... Let the captain handle it, and he will sell it for a price that satisfies me. ”
Loria finished her order in one breath, she had already decided to return to Dalaran as soon as possible to replenish her weapons and cannonballs, and when the disaster reached the lake, all routes would be blocked, and at least a few months of salary expenses would be earned in advance.
In the evening, when Loria woke up in her room, Sinbad knocked on her door.
"Four hundred barrels of wine were sold for two gold and thirty ducats, and I could have sold them for a better price had you not been in a hurry to leave...... The thieves have all been dealt with. Sinbad approached the small dining table in the room and tossed a bag of gold coins on the table, "After deducting the costs, all expenses, and the money bribed by the dockmaster, we have netted three hundred and eighty gold coins, and according to our agreement, the profits of more than three hundred are divided equally, and I have taken my own share of forty gold coins...... The cabin was now filled with apple juice, three hundred barrels, and one hundred and ten gold coins had been spent, and here were the remaining two hundred and thirty profits, and the cost of four hundred and twenty gold you gave me, making a total of six hundred and fifty gold coins. ”
When he didn't give orders, Sinbad's voice was very high-pitched, and he kept shouting and making Loria a little dizzy.
"How can you make so much money...... We're just going to be able to make three hundred and eighty gold coins just by floating on the lake for a week and beating up a robber? ”
The profit was frighteningly high, and Loria was a little surprised.
"You can't count it that way, Miss Hillsbrad, after deducting this week's salary, maintenance, and my cents, you've only earned two hundred and sixty gold coins...... If it weren't for the poor shipping routes and the fact that they happened to meet merchants who were eager to ship at cheap prices, it would not have been possible to have such a high profit. ”
The goblin captain crossed his fingers and counted each expenditure to Loria, he was indeed a good captain, not only able to command his men well, but also experienced in sailing, combat, and trade, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't get along in the goblin territory, Loria would not have been able to hire him for a weekly salary of fifteen gold coins.
"That's it, miss, I'm going to get ready for the night flight, I wish you a good mood."
Sinbad turned to leave, but was stopped by Loria.
"Excuse me...... How long do goblins live? Forgive me for my presumptuousness, I mean how long will you live, Mr. Captain, and will you still be able to sail after twenty years?
