Chapter 41 Crossing the ocean in a box

Ten years at sea, Henry has always considered his luck to be very good. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Henry was originally considered a noble class of the Legtitimis dynasty, but the title was only the size of a sesame seed, and due to the poor management of his grandfather and father, the family was in decline.

After Henry inherited the title of knight and nobleman, there was no food left in the family. As a last resort, Henry had no choice but to sell his property, borrow some money from everywhere, and start a maritime trade.

may be the care of Lady Luck, coupled with Henry's more flexible mind, after being blown to the open sea by a storm, and finally returning with a full load, Henry only took a short time to pay off all the loans with principal and interest, and accumulated a lot of family property.

A month ago, Henry set off from the port of Sun Life to deliver a full load of cargo to Vanderhaven on the Remans Peninsula. Unlike other slave traders who came to Vanderhaven, Henry came here mainly to sell grain to the caravans.

As mentioned earlier, Port Vander was a transit point for the orc slave trade, but both Kefson, the starting point of the port of the orcs, and the Remans Peninsula, where Port Vander is located, produced a very small amount of food, barely enough for the local orcs and dwarves. As a result, caravans that docked at Vanderhaven often needed a large amount of food supplies.

Many people have asked Henry why he didn't piggyback on some slaves when he returned from Vanderhaven, and when he returned to Yongming, he sold them within the Legtitimis dynasty, so that the profit margin would be greatly improved.

Henry always laughed at this.

First of all, Henry believed that the slave trade seemed to be very profitable, but it was not a formal trade after all, and the risks were too great.

Secondly, the cake of the entire slave trade is so big, it has been divided by the major forces on the mainland, and the rest are small fights and cannot be put on the table. If you join the slave trade, you have already decided from the innate that you will not be able to grow big at all. If it is forcibly expanded, it will face repression by the vested interests of the entire slave trade.

Last but not least, Henry believed that the huge profits of the so-called slave trade were no match for the new trade he had discovered, the elven bonsai. Even going to Vanderport to sell grain was to cover the "bonsai trade".

The so-called elf potted plants are actually flowers and plants that grow in the elf continent and are carefully cared for by the elf clan.

Lost in the open sea, Henry accidentally came to the north and north side of the elven continent, near a village called Goering, and established a good relationship with the local elves, before leaving, he was given a few pots of flowers and plants.

After returning to Eternal Harbor, by chance, several pots of flowers and plants were bought by a nobleman who held the title of earl. After that, many people came to the door and asked if there were similar flowers and plants for sale.

Sensing a business opportunity, Henry has been traveling between the Elven Continent and Yongming Harbor since then.

All of a sudden, the supply of elf bonsai was in short supply. Without some elven bonsai as an embellishment, those nobles didn't even have the face to hold a private banquet.

As usual, after Henry finished handling the grain in the port of Vander, he took some items needed by the elves and sailed along the coastline of the elven continent to the village of Goering on the north coast.

Henry, who was lying in the room, stacked his ** on the table, squinted his eyes and tasted the wine worth ten gold coins, feeling that in addition to the taste of gold coins, his mouth was not much different from the wine of ten silver coins.

However, thinking of his status as a nobleman, Henry kept convincing himself that the nobleman should have the way of being a nobleman.

At this moment, a sailor came to the outside of Henry's room, knocked on the door, and said, "Dear Sir Henry, there is a chest floating on the sea in the distance, what shall we do?" ”

Henry liked to be called Sir Henry, because it reminded him that he was also a nobleman.

"Of course, I fished it up, and in the future, I didn't listen to the nonsense of those bards, and actually said what 'cursed box', hell, it was just a means of attracting people, and there were really people who believed in the story of a landlubber general at sea. Henry said disdainfully.

"But, sir, it's a legend of a ghost of the sea! Sailor said Ai Ai.

"Tom, tom" Henry put away his feet on the table, stood up and said: "Okay, your Lord Henry and I are blessed with great fortune, and my longevity is boundless, even if there is bad luck, I will definitely be washed away by my lord." This box is still a treasure!"

"Just go out and breathe, I'll go out on deck and have a look, damn bard, no bard will be allowed on my ship in the future! ”

Henry, who was scolding and scolding, carefully put the wine bottle in his hand back to its original place, although the family is now a big business, but ten gold coins a bottle of wine, Henry, who is poor and afraid, still feels a little distressed to drink.

Standing on the deck, Henry watched the northwest slowly drift towards his chest, excited.

"Maybe it's really a box of treasures," thought Henry, "because I'm lucky." ”

......

"Stinky dwarf, stink! Also, how long are we going to float!"

In the small space, Nivea clung to the edge of the box, as far away from the hammer as possible.

"Cut, the little girl doesn't understand anything, this is called manliness, man, do you know what it means to be a man. Brass Hammer pouted and said.

Sayles smiled bitterly: "Enough, since I woke up, I heard that the two of you are fighting here, and it has been ten days, and you two still have the energy to quarrel." Brass Hammer, aren't dwarves born with a hate of water, how can you still have the spirit to quarrel with Nivea? ”

Hearing this, Copper Hammer's face instantly became bitter, "What can you do if you hate water...... There is only water here, endless water, not even a dry place, and the copper hammer is almost moldy all over!"

The copper hammer opened its big mouth, sighed hard at Sails, and said: "You ask, you ask, I have eaten fish and kelp for ten days, and as a child of Mother Earth, I feel that I have found an ocean daddy again......"

In the statue in Sayles's arms, Walter, who was constantly perceiving the external environment, suddenly felt tired in his heart, and thought: "Who wants to have a son like you, how many times has the ancestral grave been dug back and forth." Who would have had a daughter-in-law like Gaia,...... The picture is so beautiful that I can't even think about it. ”

A fishy smell hit his face, causing Sayles to quickly cover his mouth and nose.

Suddenly, Nivea shouted excitedly, "Look! there's a boat over there, we're saved." ”
