Section 101

"I'm sorry, but my 'salesman' has caused a lot of trouble for your city......"

The three-day "free trade" in Louise City has ended, and there is no oil or water to be squeezed out of the city, and the new Initial has a new mission.

"They're just overzealous......"

City Lord Nicholas Hayes said politely, "Our merchant ships will visit your Star-Moon Bay in the near future, and we hope to exchange trade with your territory. ”

Xingyue Bay is far from Louis City, but the "only port in the north" is countless times more important than the ports in the Southern Islands that exist dozens of nautical miles away, the routes there are safe, there are no sea tribes, and the only pirates are still people from Annam. The demonic iron, magic newspapers, and cement in the wooden crates were enough to make the nobles fanatically embrace the correctness of trade.

"I'll entertain them."

Ingrid then sent a list to Lord Nicholas Hayes, noting what was allowed to be sold in Starmoon Bay. In response, Lord Nicholas Hayes gave Annan a copy of the chart. Not only do you see all the ports within a thousand nautical miles, but you also see islands, pirates, and sectarian factions.

The people of the sea believe in the goddess of the sea and the goddess of the storm, and after the turmoil, the gods are lost, and they are fighting each other's followers, and even fighting internally, and it is more dangerous to encounter the people of these two sects than to encounter pirates.

Annan gained a steady trade, the Red Witch reaped more than looting, the lord Nicholas Hayes received a lot of taxes, the nobles reaped great benefits, and the inhabitants who bought cards, magic newspapers, and more felt that it was worth the moneyβ€”so who had to lose?

After chatting with Lord Nicholas Hayes, the portal opens on the Nautilus's deck again.

The first wise Saffron Witch lay on the piles of gold coins, and the wonderful Kinnar fell on her wild wheat-colored body, and in a trance it seemed to see Elimoas.

"Are you still satisfied with this trade?"

"Too little!" The Scarlet Witch crossed her legs in displeasure, letting Annan notice that she wasn't wearing boots, "We need more deals!" ”

"Welcome to Xingyue Bay. You can trade between Starmoon Bay and other ports. ”

The new initials still have something to do to investigate the nezumi. This kind of thing cannot be delegated to others, it must be seen with one's own eyes.

"You actually made the Sea Eagle a maritime merchant!" The Scarlet Witch lifted her round toes, "Do you want to give me a bed?" ”

"Please be respectful to the King of the North, Lady Scarlet." Ingrid expresses her displeasure to the Seahawk Chief.

"Then I'll correct it......" Annan's gaze took his eyes off the Red Witch's feet: "Sea Eagle coerced Xingyue Bay to buy a batch of goods at a low price, and then forcibly sold them to maritime merchants at a high price to make a profit. ”

"Great idea!" The Scarlet Witch seemed to see the winged Kinnar beckoning to her, "Children! Set sail! Target the North! ”

……

Da-da-da-da-da-

The hard soles of the boots step on the floor, from far to near.

Fast appeared at the door of the captain's room with an arm-long sea fish.

"Seahawk is out of port."

"See."

Fast shook the sea fish: "This fish is only fifteen pounds, but it is more difficult to catch than the fifty-pound fish in Xingyue Bay." ”

"That's amazing."

Fast carried the fish to show off, and Francois sighed and wiped the water stains off the door with a mop to the dreary cabin.

Uneasiness drifted through the murky air.

They were the last of them. Unlike the previous batches of young and middle-aged slaves, these remaining slaves were old, weak, sick and disabled...... Those who are infected or seriously ill, those who cannot speak or hear, who lack limbs, pregnant girls and old women...... They should be eliminated naturally, but Annan chose to bring them back anyway.

"Don't cry."

Francois covered his nose, he still couldn't talk to the filthy pauper like Annan.

"You think you're going to be sold to a place where birds don't poop and start a miserable life? Or is it, as rumored, that the ship eats people and does not spit out bones, and hundreds of people in front of it are eaten? "Believe it or not, the crew of this ship are like you, a few months ago they were slaves, hard laborers, prisoners, outcasts...... But now, they live in luxurious homes that you never imagined, with stable jobs and no more starvation......"

Francois, who found that he was not good at speaking, gave up and continued: "The portal will come to pick you up in a moment, save your energy, and get ready to start a new life." ”

As Francois left, the cabin reverted to its dullness, and it wasn't long before whispers erupted.

"Do you believe it?"

Sauron, who was in a daze, was bumped by a stranger beside him. "We are all sick, disabled...... What kind of places will use us? ”

"I don't believe it......" Sauron lowered his head, seeing the whip marks on his body through the holes in his clothes, "but no matter how bad it is......

I don't know how long later, they were taken to the deck, and stood in the sun, until the lice and ticks in their hair and clothes screamed, the weak pregnant women and the infected people crumbled, an oval portal appeared, and the beautiful town appeared before them like a lifelike, colorful painting.

"New residents are coming? Look at them, they're much thinner than the previous batches...... Oh, and the patient......"

Brilliant seaside sunshine shines on the neat streets. And the brighter and neater the surroundings, the more they want to shrink into a ball.

The sturdy guards led them to a mansion where only nobles stayed, and someone had the courage to ask, "...... Are we going to be servants here? Lord......"

"Sir?" The guard smirked, cleared his throat, and said, "This is where you're going to live, you know?" ”

Sauron's mouth opened wide, and what the captain who looked like a woman said was true......

At this moment, a poor man with festering skin was pushed to the ground on the edge, and the guards hurried towards him with their spears raised. The crowd huddled together in horror, and the fledgling hope vanished.

"What's wrong?"

Sauron saw the guards panic and explained to a figure, "Lord, lordship...... He wants to bribe me! ”

Suzerain? Sauron couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and look at the black-haired boy in his mage robes.

"I ...... I only ......" the festering pauper stumbled and couldn't speak, and next to him were the copper coins he wanted to bribe. "Don't drive me ......"

"I know." He picked up the scattered copper coins, walked to the middle-aged man, helped him up, and returned the copper coins to him: "Remember, this is Xingyue Bay, you don't need to be afraid of anything except the law." ”

Sauron watched the scene in amazement, he would never forget the afternoon when the young lord lifted the festering pauper.
