The farmland near the town of Salem has already begun to be harvested, but the town's mainstay is cotton.

Levi had been living here for a few days, living in the church of the priest's house these days, just cultivating spiritual power every day, and in such a slow-paced town, two little girls came to bring him food at 6 o'clock every night.

He didn't smoke, limited his alcohol to light tasting, went to bed at 10 p.m., and slept eight hours a day.

Before the 9 p.m. curfew, the little girls would go upstairs to deliver a glass of warm milk.

Levi fell asleep shortly after drinking the warm milk, not leaving his fatigue for the next day, and the priest always said that he was healthy.

But such a peaceful life made Levi feel very awkward, after a few days of such a peaceful and ordinary life, he seemed to feel that his spiritual internal friction had been cured, and even liked this town a little.

The priest always went out in the morning to offer prayers and blessings to the little boys in the neighborhood, and only returned in the evening. These days, he has always provided food and lodging to Levi, and has never asked for anything, which also makes Levi feel very puzzled.

Levi then gave the priest a silver nugget, and the priest accepted it directly, without any politeness or anything like that.

It's the kind of money that Levi will take if he gives him, but Levi has been eating and drinking for nothing, and they won't drive him away, anyway, I don't know why, Levi lived here.

There was only one nun in her fifties and two girls, the eldest girl was Abigail, eleven years old, and I heard that she was the god's niece, and the younger girl was Betty, only nine years old, and was the god's niece.

However, according to the old nun, Betty may be the priest's own daughter, and once she accidentally couldn't control the lower half of her body and was the daughter who was left behind......

The old nun also said that since the priest took the two girls, he basically only prayed for the little boys, and tried not to go to other church activities if he could.

Therefore, the two little girls have become the people with whom Levi has the most contact these days, and sometimes they will take Levi to ask stories about the outside world after bringing bread and milk.

Levi also didn't have a good time telling these two girls from the West Spotted Tooth to tell some stories from the outside world now, after all, there were no heroic stories in the Age of Discovery, just some rotten bandits, and they weren't even as good as the ones in One Piece.

So Levi pondered the Greek mythology he had been telling them for days.

Of course, it is the Greek mythology after the deeds of Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, the three breeding pigs, are eliminated, otherwise it will cause great psychological trauma to these two girls.

After learning about the authentic Greek mythology in his own life, he was amazed by the pig breeding behavior of the three brothers, and his young heart had an indelible shadow.

Levi would occasionally patrol the town with the only sheriff in the entire town of Salem, a Dutch drunkard with a bearded man who looked like a descendant of Vikings.

The town's cotton harvest began, and merchants often came in horse-drawn carts to harvest it, and this was also the time when the sheriff was busiest.

This peaceful country life seemed to be like poison, and Levi even forgot about the mission he came to this world a little bit, and lived a peaceful life every day.

Today, when Levi was working with the sheriff, he spotted a carriage, and a merchant who seemed to be a man of the people was constantly haggling with a family in front of the house, and the voices of several people were so loud that they seemed to be arguing.

"Hey, Elder Guoguo, harvest cotton with peace of mind, don't be caught by me." The sheriff said unceremoniously to the merchant with a bow.

This is actually the reason of the times, the invincible fleet that has just defeated the West Spotted Tooth is now in the same water and fire with the Lotus Blue Force, and the West Spotted Tooth and the Lotus Blue people naturally can't get used to this gang of "gentlemen".

However, the merchant with the merchant is often the highest bidder when receiving the goods, so no matter how unpleasant he looks, the business is still a business, and he shudders.

"Don't be nervous man, I just saw that your town is still picking cotton and peeling cotton by yourself, and I recommend to you the slaves who pick cotton automatically." The merchant ignored the sheriff's harsh words and came straight up to sell his products.

"Look at other places now, these slaves are used to work in the fields, and you still pick cotton by yourself here, how tired you are."

"This kind of slave, with solid skin, can do with a bowl of chaff a day, and can work hard under the whip."

The big golden back of the merchant seemed to reflect the light in the sun, and his smile was extraordinarily bright.

"How much?" The sheriff asked.

"£6 per person." The merchant's smile showed a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"£6! Why don't you grab it! The sheriff scolded directly.

In this day and age, the purchasing power of £6 can even make a family live for half a year to a year.

"If you don't have enough money, you can mortgage cotton, 200 kilograms of cotton can be exchanged for a slave, if you don't have enough cotton, you can sign a loan, just give me 50 kilograms of cotton first, and give me 30 kilograms ......of cotton in installments every year, and you can pay it off in ten years."

"If you look at these slaves, it is estimated that they will be able to earn back the money they bought in a few years, and the rest is pure earning. It's a big deal that you can make these slaves work a little harder, and work 25 hours a day, which will pay for itself in a year. ”

The merchant was still talking about the slave trade, and the sheriff was already waving impatiently.

"Hurry up after harvesting the cotton, no one here can afford your thing, how far and how far to roll, the copper stench on your body is even more disgusting than the stench of Fran Lao."

"If a family can't afford it, they can pool money from the whole town and buy a few collectively...... By the way, I also have a stone here that is stronger than hemp, and a piece of it can make people flutter when you put it around, do you want to think about it...... "The merchant still does not give up the sales pitch."

"Roll ......"

The merchant left after harvesting the cotton, and his goods were not wanted by anyone in the town, at least now.

Levi was beside him, watching this magical scene, without stopping or participating.

The problems left over from this period of history are too big, and he is not very easy to participate, so he simply becomes a bystander.

"These old people should be sent to hell, they are really more demonic than demons." After the merchant left, the sheriff spat in the direction of the merchant and said,

"Sooner or later, those elders will go to hell, and Satan will make them understand the pain of hell. No, if those old people go to hell to make Satan understand that they can still oppress the bottom like this, will hell also be over? ”

The sheriff kept complaining.

Levi looked at the back of the departing merchant, and he became more and more unable to understand why this mission was only in this peaceful town.

To be reasonable, this era should be an era of great navigation and the development of bloody capital, why is the task of coming to this era not to be the One Piece, but to "end the root of heresy" in a very model lake.

It's really not okay to go to the anti-Qing Fuming, or go to the Far East to press those reformers to death in the cradle.

"Stranger, let's go have a few drinks today, anyway, after you came, our whole town has become a lot richer." The sheriff said bluntly.
