Chapter 23 Departure

Without a boat, Bit sat on the beach and muttered, "Without a boat, how much time will it take us to reach the edge of Chenghai... It is estimated that it will take three days to make a round trip. ”

There were many people on the shore, most of them tourists, who came to participate in the Medicine King Competition, and I suddenly had an idea in my heart, because there are many passenger ships here!

Thorin lowered his head, as if everything was caused by him, and he looked aggrieved.

Thorin is very thin, two and a half meters tall, estimated to be less than 150 kilograms, but his skin is very smooth, and Bit's wings are very unique, and he is the only one of us here who can fly for long periods of time.

As for Ace, he is a muscular man with a handle, and he looks a bit like Zhang Fei.

"Wait for me. "I walked over to a man dressed as a businessman.

The merchant was clearly a sea snake man with some yellow spots on his face, but now I went over and no doubt had several of his bodyguards surround me and try to stop me.

Those bodyguards were all shark people, with several heads on them, sadness and a huge anchor.

"Please stop!" the shark-man warned me.

I squeezed out a smile, and when I was a killer, I thought my smile was realistic, kind, and harmless.

"I want to make a deal, and I can't find the shopkeeper willing to do it. "I looked at the sea serpent people.

The sea snake man looked at me from foot to head, and suddenly put down the big cigarette butt in his mouth: "It should be the guard of the island, I am a merchant Qu Cai, don't you find what business you want to do with me?"

"You must be here to do business. "I looked at his outfit, and behind them was a merchant ship, which was powered by dozens of slaves.

Qu Cai said: "So what?" He looked at me with interest, but it was more appropriate to replace interest with curiosity.

I smiled and said, "You should want a house here, do you want a stable place to do your business?"

"Yes, do you have any good way? These days, there are hundreds of thousands of people here and there are hundreds of thousands of people on the island, how can I let go of such a business opportunity. ”

"I had a house in the village and it was spacious. "I'm going to say it's very spacious.

Qu Cai's eyes suddenly lit up: "House, do you want to lend it to me?"

I shook my head and looked at him.

Qu Cai was a little anxious: "Then what are you using this house for, I believe you are trading with me, about this house." ”

"Unfortunately, my brothers and I wanted to go on a mission, but the ship was gone. "I deliberately pretended to be emotional.

"This is easy to do, I have two merchant ships that have been empty all along, so how about I exchange them with you?" Qu Cai looked at me, obviously he was also suppressing his heart, not wanting to express too much excitement.

Businessmen like to knock on people's bamboo poles, and they are also afraid of being knocked on bamboo poles, I have to say, Qu Cai is very cautious, and very sensible.

"Seven days of business can make more than one ship. "I pulled out a sign in my hand, this one is unique here.

"I can add some more chips, I don't want to lose too much. Qu Cai looked at me with interest.

"I will have food for twenty men for seven days, and a hundred slaves to sail the ship, and a chest of precious stones. I spoke up.

Qu Cai was embarrassed, although he could make up for it with seven days of business, but in this way he could earn a lot less: "Isn't a box of gems too much?"

"And what do you have in place of gems?" I asked.

Qu Cai thought for a moment and took out the treasure bag on his waist: "How about this?" He took out the pure gold compass.

Qu Cai continued: "This thing is most needed at sea, and this is much more precious than many things. ”

I took a breath of cold air, because what I saw in front of me was not just gold, but black gold with gold dye!

Qu Cai was very proud, because this one was made of a metal given by a friend, and he plated it with a layer of gold, which looked like gold.

I took the compass and found that it weighed five catties! five catties, a full fifty taels of black gold, that is, 500,000 taels of silver, in other words, 200,000 taels of gold!

"Well, you're right, multiple compasses are much more convenient at sea. I pretended to be stupid.

Qu Cai was ecstatic in his heart, he had never seen this metal, so he always thought it was scrap, this time he took a ship and a hundred slaves, and exchanged a piece of scrap iron for a house, it was really profitable!

So after the two of us exchanged each other, I went back to the crowd, and I used my fingernails to button a little gold leaf, and it was black gold inside!

So naturally we boarded the boat, put on the seven-day food that had been piled up for twenty people, and filled a small room!

The ship was not very big, but it was very tidy, large and small with five or six rooms, three of which I used as our bedroom, Lilina and Aini, Bit and Ace, me and Thorin.

Before uploading, I gave the slaves a huge amount of food to eat for about a month, and when the slaves saw me, they all swore that they would step on the boat hard and make the boat go fast.

In the kitchen, Ani and Ace are cooking, they are brother and sister in name, half-siblings, and I also lament that their father has a strong taste.

Lilina and I stood at the front of the ship, at the helm.

"Lilina, what are you thinking?" I said, looking at Lilina, with a faint sadness in her expression at this time.

Lilina looked at me, then leaned over, "I'm thinking about my sister, Christina. She carried me as a baby and came to Mermaid Island, but at this time she was separated from me. ”

"I'm so sorry," I said, putting my arm around Lilina, "don't you still have me?" ”

"I want to meet Sister Xue Yan..."Lilina said suddenly.

I smiled and said, "We'll see you soon, and when we're done here, we'll go to the Heavenly Realm to see her..."

"What kind of person is Sister Xue Yan?" Lilina looked at me curiously.

"She is the most gentle woman in the world...... "I looked at the distant starry sky, Xue Yan, where are you now...

"Captain, according to the map, we will soon arrive at the first gathering point of sea beasts. "Bit flew down with the mapway, and he had been standing on the mast before, and I didn't even notice it!

"Where?" I asked.

"Fifty kilometers ahead, the trench of the dead. Bit pointed to the fork on the map.

I looked at it: "Okay, then slow down, there's still four hours, slow down, we're attacking at five in the morning!

"But I'm afraid," Bit said.

I interrupted: "When the sea beast is active around ten o'clock, don't look for death, six of us, come, we will go back together!"

"Yes!" Bit felt a little heat in his eyes.
