39 [Hot Blood] Aspire to become a sea overlord! (29)

They restocked and repaired in the nearby town, and the originally bustling market was not crowded with people, and the chamber of commerce was even more chaotic.

All prices have risen rapidly, and the luxury goods of the past have long been buried in the warehouses, and the high prices have replaced them with the once cheap food and coats.

"The South China Sea is really going to be in turmoil." She looked grim and said to Avis, who was accompanying her to check the market, "It seems that I can't wait for a moment to find the token, I must get it, and then obtain the vassal of the ruler of the landlocked country of the Southern Continent, defeat Heinrich fiercely, and let him go back to his Eastern Continent!" ”

"Well, through the study of the map in the past few days, I think I have been able to determine its direction."

Ives reported, and after speaking, he asked with a pretended nonchalant look, "By the way, Ann, when will that Hathaway get off the boat?" Didn't you say that you would put her down when you reached the South China Sea? ”

"Well, there's been a war lately—" An Ning hesitated, "Why don't you get better?" Or how many more cities do we get? ”

"Hey, woman!" Avis looked a little anxious, "As I said, Hathaway is suspicious. ”

She had a headache, "I also said, Avis, I promised to put her off the ship before we could find the South China Sea token once and for all." You see, this is the closest to the Eastern Continent, and I really can't guarantee the safety of a young lady in such a city. ”

"You-" Avis choked back, waving his hand in frustration, "Forget it, so be it." ”

When he returned to the ship, Cyril was sitting on the table looking at something with an irritated expression, and after writing a few sentences impatiently with his pen, he threw his head up in frenzy and called out, and then pushed all the papers on it to the ground. I looked at it angrily for a long time, and then squatted down and picked it up in frustration.

"This is—the Chamber of Commerce earnings statement?" She picked one up and asked, confused.

"Huh?! What's going on? She glanced at it, and immediately picked up a few more in a panic to look at it, "This war has just begun, why hasn't the income increased in the past three months, but dropped by seventeen percent?!" ”

"Cyril!!" She was furious, "Why are you touching my report!" Bastard! You're all wrong! ”

"Ann!" Cyril was also aggrieved, "You asked me to do the math!! I don't want to count it! ”

"If you said that you would use a sword to fight a piece of the world, you just let me be an accountant again! I don't want to! ”

"How can I let you-huh?" She paused, looked suspiciously at Avis, who was watching and laughing all the time, and after getting the other party's nod, she hugged her head in disbelief, "Am I crazy?" I know that your accounting skills are even worse than Avis's force, how could I not think of asking you to calculate the statements?! ”

"Hey! Woman! Why do you keep trying to slander me?! Avis protested, "You said that there was only one sailor's room in the cabin, and that if Cyril finished the report, you would renovate another one." I wanted to tell you, don't make such jokes - because in the end you are obviously unlucky, but you don't listen! ”

She thought hard about it, and finally couldn't help but lament that these were the stupid things she had done in her mind some time ago.

After a few days of noisy sailing, they finally came to a town with a relatively stable atmosphere.

"Prices are normal! That's great! Frank was moved, "Finally I don't have to eat bread every day!" ”

"Hey, Frank, are you criticizing me for detaining you?" The girl's face was gloomy, "Even if you eat bread, you know how much you have to eat a day!" ”

"Oh, Ann, I didn't say that—" Frank looked cautiously at his current owner, while Cyril pulled him over and admonished, "Don't mess with Ann lately, she's been a little out of the ordinary." ”

Abnormal Anning Ningning: ......

"With enough supplies here, we can go there." Avis whispered, turning his head to see the people around him, "Actually, at the speed of our main ship now, we can still transport some food and coats to those places to sell." Originally, the place marked on the map was not far away - we just came here to replenish our supplies, and maybe we could make a big deal. ”

"Hmm." An Ning Ning was also very moved. Although the market in the harbor here fluctuates, the operation of the government chamber of commerce is also obvious, and even if they don't do this business, there are more people who will raise the price of goods.

"This is war." "It seems that the merchants are not involved, but whether it is the reselling of weapons, food, or warm coats, they have their footprints. ”

"If it is not provided, those ordinary soldiers will not even have the most basic guarantees. If you provide it, it seems to keep them, but it prolongs the war, and in the end you can make a good profit. ”

She remembered some memories, sneered, and shrugged back to Avis, "However, it seems that there is a pattern in the war, and we, as merchants, only follow this law. After all, who made the war go out? ”

She pursed her lips and let go of the little mustard in her heart, noticing that there was something strange about Avis's face. When he looked into his gaze, he found Noah standing behind them with a blank face, and he didn't know how much he had heard.

……

"Tsk. We said in private that it was fine. Avis gloated, "But Noah hates these things the most, and you said so much." ”

"Avis!" She glared at him depressedly, and looked frustrated, "What should I do, Noah ignored me again." ”

Ives still wanted to joke, and remembered what he saw that night, and coughed lightly, "Well, maybe he will be fine after a while?" ”

She had to hope so.

However, she never imagined that such a seemingly trivial matter would be so serious that Noah would actually get off the ship and leave!

"Noah, I'm sorry, okay?" The girl tugged at the man's sleeve in disbelief, "Don't go." ”

"Annie." Noah turned his head and looked at her calmly, finally unable to bear the panic in her eyes, sighed lowly, and gently brushed the wetness from the corners of her eyes with his thumb, "You don't have to apologize, you didn't say anything wrong." ”

"But, then, why did you leave?" She clutched his hand like a life-saving straw. They've never been separated since she was rescued by him, and now, he's actually leaving?

Seeing that the man didn't want to answer, calm, and unwavering expression, the faint uneasiness that expanded in her heart made her can't help but have a sour nose.

"Noah, didn't you find me and tell me to go back with you? Didn't you kill that man and tell me I wouldn't leave again? ”

"What about you? What are you doing now?! - Are you going to leave me behind and leave on your own? Grievances, anger, and betrayal made her choke up with continuous questioning, and finally shed tears without a trace.

Noah was silent, lowered his head, and didn't look at her, but just pulled his hand out of her hand coldly and lifted his luggage.

"Noah!" She shouted.

Facing the blue eyes of the sea that seemed to have never changed, she endured the sourness and said word by word, "You said that you will be a faithful knight and accompany me to find my dreams." ”

"You said it, Noah!" She stared at him tightly, hoping that the next moment, he would change his tune and he would never leave again.

And yet—

"I'm sorry, Ann, I can't do it." He said.

There was no longer any tenderness in his eyes that peculiar to her, and when he had finished speaking coldly, he took his luggage and strode away resolutely and without looking back, and quickly walked out of the harbor and disappeared into the crowd.

Noah, left.

The boy who had been with her since three years ago was uneasy and frightened when she came to this world.,Left her completely.。
