Chapter 017: Bob's Tavern

"What, you all know about Sword."

Goodman poured himself a glass of wine and brought it to his lips with some disappointment: "So you've all heard about the Big Bang?" ”

"Explosion?" Molly and Baier pricked up their ears, they hadn't heard of any explosions.

Zhang Da also relieved himself, Uncle Goodman's dock was the closest to the place where the incident occurred, and the rumors should not be so outrageous.

Goodman suddenly became energetic, and drank the wine from the cup with a sigh: "I tell you, at that time I was reinforcing the mast of a ship, and suddenly I heard a loud noise, and if it was gunpowder, I guess I would have to use at least this number." ”

Mrs. Molly, however, was not interested in the amount of gunpowder to be used, and urged, "What about later? ”

"The whole shipwright in the dockyard was so frightened that they clung to their heads and wanted to dig a hole to get into, but I was the only one who did the job at hand without hurry, who am I, I am Goodman, remembering when I was young......"

Mrs. Molly patted him on the back: "Straight to the point!" ”

“…… Later, I heard that the explosives had been planted a long time ago, and that the brave and resourceful man had deliberately put Sword and his men ...... Three hundred people were drawn there, and then they were detonated, and all three hundred people were blown up into the sky! ”

Mrs. Molly covered her mouth, and little Beyer's eyes sparkled.

Tom also has a tendency to be assimilated.

Zhang Da also hurriedly explained to them: "Actually, they hurt themselves...... Then I dragged them to the naval base for a bounty, and then there was a little accident on the way, which caused the explosion......"

He didn't say that he had caused the explosion in the end, and he couldn't explain the source.

As for the navy, it shouldn't be investigated, it's just an 8 million Bailey bounty, it's not worth it.

After listening to this, the Goodmans' excited expressions cooled down.

Mrs. Molly tilted her head: "It's so ordinary." ”

Baier tilted his head: "It's so inferior." ”

Goodman tilted his head: "It's boring. ”

Tom tilted his head, "Meow?" ”

Zhang Da also scooped up Tom, kneaded it round and flattened: "Tom, don't follow the mess!" I've put up with you for a long time! ”

"Meow meow meow......" Tom waved his paws and begged for mercy.

"Anyway, there are no heroes, no thirty or three hundred men, it's just that I'm lucky to get a bounty. By the way, these are for you. Zhang Da also handed them the prepared things.

"Oh, what a great apron!"

"This hat is so handsome!"

"Isn't this the latest sumo panda sunglasses?" Goodman happily tried it, he had already planned to buy a pair, but that part of the budget promised Zhang Da to pay for his salary, so he wanted to wait until next month.

Mrs. Molly also noticed that the apron and Bayer's hat that Zhang Daya gave her were both sumo panda brands, and said worriedly: "Won't this be too expensive, Brother Daya, even if you get a lot of bounty, it's better not to be extravagant." ”

"It's okay, if you like it, just to thank Uncle Goodman and Sister Molly for taking care of me during this time."

"Don't be so polite, and it sounds like goodbye."

"Huh? Is Brother Tatsuya leaving? Bair stopped fiddling with his new hat, clearly reluctant.

"Well, I'm going to move out, buy a shop or rent a shop nearby, I've been causing you a lot of trouble these days."

Zhang Da always felt that Goodman's conditions for working one hour a day and 100,000 Bailey a month were too generous, and that he was actually taking care of him when he said it was work.

Mrs. Molly too, whether it is food, clothes, or all kinds of daily necessities, she helps him prepare everything, and many times it is like an older sister taking care of her younger brother.

is obviously not related to each other, but the family is so kind that Zhang Da is ashamed.

In the past, there was no way, but now that I have a little capital, I can't talk about it all the time in other people's homes, right?

Mrs. Molly tried to persuade him to stay, but Goodman stopped her: "Okay Molly, don't underestimate a man's determination to live independently!" ”

"But ......"

Goodman waved his hand: "It's nothing good, but, a man should be decisive in doing things, that's what I said to Brother Daya at the beginning, and it's still the same now, since it's decided, just do it!" ”

Bayer looked at Goodman with burning eyes.

"What's wrong Bayer, don't you think it's right?"

"No, I just think my dad is so handsome!"

"Hahaha!" Goodman broke the gong in a second, "What kind of handsome is this?" Remembering when I was younger...... A hundred times more handsome than now! ”

"Okay, less bragging." Mrs. Molly got down to business, "Is there anything you want to do?" ”

Zhang Da also said: "I haven't thought about this yet, I need to take a good look at what suitable stores are around, and I don't know what I can do with the money." ”

8.1 million Bailey sounds like a lot, but he really doesn't know how much he can do.

Goodman thought for a moment, "In that case, maybe you can check out Bob's tavern." ”

"Tavern?"

Goodman nodded: "That's right, it's the one that Bayer often runs to play, and the old Bob is almost seventy years old and wants to sell the tavern and retire." ”

"But the tavern ...... Can I run it well? "Zhang Da is also mainly worried about safety, is it easier for pirates to make trouble in the tavern?

"Old Bob can run for so long, little brother, your words must be fine!" "Most of the people who go there are us boatmen, and the Navy and World Government officials occasionally come over, so no one will make trouble." ”

Zhang Da was also a little tempted, he knew that the tavern was located just west of Island 59, there were not many competitors such as restaurants and bars around, and many boatmen liked to go there after work to have a drink and brag.

Zhang Da has also been here for almost a month, and he has not heard of anyone making trouble there, so it seems that it is indeed a good place to go.

"How much does it cost to buy it?"

"Ten million Baileys at most, right?" Goodman said a price that Zhang Da couldn't even believe.

"So little? I've heard that a sailing ship can cost hundreds of millions of Baileys. ”

Goodman looked at him strangely: "Ships and houses are different, every ship has been poured into the efforts of our shipwrights, and there can be no mistakes, and like Bob's tavern, our shipyard can be built with a few apprentices." ”

"Uh......" Zhang Da also said, is the real estate in this world so unrecognizable?

Goodman adds: "Of course, a fortress like where the nobles lived, or a naval base, was a different matter. ”
