Chapter 552 I didn't expect this kind of operation again......
After explaining some matters to Siluka and the others, Chen Xiao left the secret realm with Skaha and returned to the ship.
The Golden Merry was jolting and swaying in the storm, but the ship was getting closer to the harbor of the Rocky Islands.
Many ships are moored in the harbor, swaying up and down with the wind and waves, making for a rather spectacular scene.
The storm made it impossible for many ships to sail, they were all crowded in the harbor, and many people were too busy to take care of themselves, but Chen Xiao's ship did not attract much attention.
After arriving at the port, Chen Xiao instructed Captain Drake and others to be on standby in the ship, on guard at all times, and no one was allowed to approach the Golden Merry.
Braving the wind and rain, the group walked through the dirty dock and entered a tavern near the pier.
The tavern was already crowded with people, and it was rare to see people like Chen Xiao who were gorgeously dressed and decent.
The people in the tavern were generally dock workers or adventurers and civilians who could only afford cheap ale.
Chen Xiao and his entourage immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Wenji and Nia were left on the ship by him, and only Ace, Dewey, and Arya were by Chen Xiao's side.
Dewey's severed arm had been fitted with a metal prosthetic made by Chen Xiao, and at this time, he was wearing long-sleeved clothes and leather gloves, and he couldn't tell that he was a person with a broken arm at all.
It's just that Dewey's face is not very good, and blood is faintly oozing from his arm.
"My lord, there are a lot of dragons and snakes here. Always be careful. Dewey said with a nervous expression, always on the lookout for every move around him.
Chen Xiao said: "Don't be nervous. In fact, you should take a break, the prosthesis has just been installed, and it will take time to run in. ”
Dewey shook his head.
His mood was still in a state of excitement and excitement.
Chen Xiao refined a metal prosthetic for him, allowing him to have a left hand again, and he was very excited in his heart.
According to Chen Xiao, this metal prosthetic has many functions, and it needs to be slowly excavated and controlled.
This time, Chen Xiao stepped into the Rocky Islands, which were surrounded by enemies, and as the captain of Chen Xiao's personal guard, Dewey was responsible for protecting Chen Xiaoquan.
As soon as they entered the tavern, a waitress came over to greet them.
Chen Xiao familiarly stuffed a gold coin into the deep furrow on the waitress's chest, and said, "Find a quiet place for us." ”
The waitress immediately showed an extremely charming and flattering smile: "This lord, please follow me." ”
Chen Xiao is generous, dressed gorgeously and noblely, and his appearance is not bad, when she encounters such a big money lord, the waitress can't help but flatter Chen Xiao frequently, squeezing her chest and making a fuss, and even feels that it is not impossible to have a misty marriage with Chen Xiao.
Seeing that the glamorous waitress should be deferential and gentle to Chen Xiao, some rough men in the tavern couldn't help but laugh and said a lot of ugly swear words.
The waitress was also fierce, and scolded back one after another, looking like a tigress, refusing to suffer a loss.
Chen Xiao blinked and couldn't help but smile.
"This beauty is strong enough. ”
The waitress blushed, immediately regained her gentle appearance, and said shyly: "This lord, the slave family is still very gentle. Living here, sometimes it's not good not to be tough. ”
Chen Xiaoshen nodded approvingly, continued to reward a waitress with a gold coin, and said, "This is a tip for you, there will be a lot of things to trouble you later." ”
The waitress accepted the gold coin happily, directly squeezed away Ace next to Chen Xiao, hugged Chen Xiao's arm, squeezed Chen Xiao with her pair of big breasts, and said affectionately: "Master, you are really good." ”
Seeing this scene, Arya beside Chen Xiao couldn't help but blush, and even Ace's eyes widened with a hellish expression.
I didn't expect Chen Xiao to do this.
With the waitress leading the way, the group went to a separate room in the tavern.
Chen Xiao called for some ale wine and food, and ordered everyone to sit down.
After the waitress went out, she quickly returned with food and ale.
Chen Xiao asked the waitress to sit down and ask about something.
In this place where dragons and snakes are mixed, there is a lot of information circulating, and the waitress works in the tavern all day long, and knows more or less about it.
It can even be said that she has intelligence information in her hands that many people do not know.
Chen Xiao pushed the ale in front of the waitress and said with a gentle smile: "Beauty, how much do you know about the forces here in the Rocky Islands?"
The waitress showed a slightly wary gaze, and then when Chen Xiao stuffed the two gold coins into her hand, she had already fallen into Chen Xiao's money offensive, and she knew everything.
It's not the first time that a waitress has encountered such a scene, and waiters like her who linger in the tavern know a lot of news.
"This is the first time my lord has come here, right?" The waitress should be out of kindness, but still admonished Chen Xiao: "The forces here are intertwined, and the lord has to be careful if he wants to do business." ”
Chen Xiao nodded: "I know." ”
The power of the Rocky Islands is intricate, and there are even countless large and small forces, among which the island owners of the Red Rose family are the main forces, as well as the Witch Cult, the Interracial Alliance, the Poseidon Cult, the Cult of Light, the Manichaeism, the Death Poison Cult, the Manatee Gang and other sects and gangs, which rule some streets and fairs.
If you want to do business, you need to have a good relationship with these gangs, otherwise you will be targeted by these gangs, and they will come to you for trouble if you are unhappy.
The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the Red Rose family, the owner of the island, and now the head of the Red Rose family, Adams, is a genius who has run the Rocky Islands more and more prosperous.
As the largest slave merchant on the mainland, Adams continued to plunder and train all kinds of slaves, and then transported them to various parts of the continent, supplying them to the nobles as playthings, or causing wars, so as to make explosive profits, and then transport all kinds of material wealth back to the Rocky Islands.
The prosperity here was built up by Adams, and countless slaves at the bottom were resources in Adams's hands, and they were taken away from life.
Here, the rich can enjoy the most extravagant life, drunk with money, life and death, all according to their hearts.
Speaking of this, the waitress's face became not very good, and there was a kind of gnashing of teeth.
"That's a demon, a demon who has no willfulness and likes to play with people's hearts and human lives. ”
This is the waitress's view of Adams.
Chen Xiao calmed the waitress and said, "What about the Witch Sect?"
For this witch sect who always can't get along with him and loves and kills each other, Chen Xiao still cares a lot.
Speaking of the Witch Sect, the waitress's face was obviously more difficult to look at: "Shh, master." You can't just say anything like witch cult here. Here, the Cult of the Earth God is sometimes even more terrifying than Adams. ”
"The Earth God Cult can be said to be Adams' biggest accomplice, the Earth God Cult, which is good at using various potions, is famous for its mandala elixir, and is protected by many forces. ”
"It is said that the demons on the mainland are raging now, or because of the secret operation of the Earth God Sect. ”
"It's no secret that they're researching demons here, and they've even developed some Demon God Pills for sale. The Demon God Pill on the market, which is hard to find, is said to have a very terrifying power, and can make people become as powerful as a demon god. ”
The waitress whispered all sorts of gossip and described the power of the Rocky Islands in detail, and Arya recorded it with charcoal on the side, making a swishing sound.
Outside the room, the tavern was still noisy, and it was not until late at night, when the guests dispersed, that the tavern became open and quiet, and only the floor was full of messes.
The tavern owner glanced at the room where Chen Xiao was with his dead fish eyes, and continued to clean up the wine glasses on the bar with a blank face, while the other waitresses discussed the luck of his colleague Melena while cleaning up the table.
Not long after, after the waitress Mei Liana walked out of the room, she couldn't help but sigh deeply, and finally dealt with Chen Xiao.
She glanced at the tavernkeeper, and there seemed to be a brief exchange between the two of them.
Immediately, Melena picked up the raincoat in the corner of the door, put it on, and walked down the street in the rain towards the palace at the highest point in the city......
