Pirate Merchant

On the second day after the pirate crisis was suppressed, Saka, who did not catch the copper nose at night, but successfully passed the navy recruitment test the next morning, became a navy third-class soldier, and Saka did not become an officer in one step. It was also within Mu Qian's expectation, after all, Smoker was still suspicious of himself and Saka.

The newly built hollow brick yard and underground brick kiln outside Muqianluoge Town were also quickly completed under the melting and solidification of his fruit ability, and began to operate quickly.

"The quality of the hollow bricks is quite good. The red bricks are not as good as the fire, um, but they are much harder than bricks fired by ordinary methods. From this point of view, the firing method of lime and volcanic ash is the easiest. "

Mu Qian, who has no brick-burning license, no warehouse, and no quality inspection certificate, sat on the sorted out space and laughed with satisfaction looking at the red bricks fired in front of him and the cement hollow bricks dried with his ability.

"Antonio, the appearance of these bricks is really good! Damn it! After you go back to Frost Moon Village, you have to start a kiln to burn a batch of bricks! I want to build a warehouse next to my house!"

The captain who had just finished moving the bricks from the kiln told Mu Qian excitedly, seeing this batch of red bricks made him so envious that he was born as a mason and even wanted to go home immediately to buy bricks and repair a house!

"Hahaha! Don't worry, go back, Uncle Philips, if you need it, I'll burn it for you right away. It's not difficult for me to burn bricks."

Mu Qian laughed out loud. Although he was a little dissatisfied with the bricks he fired, he was still very happy to be recognized.

"Okay! That's what you said! Little ones! Sending bricks to the city to make money!"

The captain touched the stacked bricks on the trolley like a baby, and cheered loudly excitedly. Having worked as a mason for more than ten years, he knew that these bricks would definitely be safe even if they were not attacked by pirates. Get a good price.

Mu Qian heaved a sigh of relief looking at the captain driving the carriage to the city.

Philips, the captain of the Lucky, was willing to take the initiative to undertake the work of moving and selling bricks, which reduced his work by half. For him, running sales was countless times more tiring than using fruit ability to burn bricks.

"The grinding of lime is also easier than expected, well~ It seems that my fruit ability is more like a versatile material assistant than fighting~"

Sitting on the ground, Mu Qian looked at the bubbling magma in front of him and smiled, while all kinds of strange ores were placed beside him.

These ores are the characteristics of his own fruit ability, and he extracted them from various stones through the temperature difference of the ore melting point.

The gold ore and silver ore among those metal ores are particularly eye-catching, but these two most eye-catching ores are the two ores with the lowest pile value among the ores left by Mu Qian with a higher melting point.

"There is also volcanic ash, and the lime is also fired and ground. The next step is to experiment how to mix and match the cement. Although the current lime and volcanic ash can be used to build a house, the cost performance is definitely not as convenient as cement. "

As the magma pond in front of him gradually cooled and solidified, Mu Qian, who was groping for how to make cement, began to experiment. Even if he couldn't make cement, he still wanted to make cement substitutes. After all, it is used in proportion The ratio of lime and volcanic ash is much more troublesome than the cement that can be used directly by adding river sand and water.

The time to start the research passed quickly, and the sky had completely darkened during the continuous experiments. With the sound of the sailors singing and dancing, Mu Qian, who was immersed in the pleasant atmosphere of the quiet experiment, came back to his senses.

"Antonio! We sold all the fire bricks and the hollow brick you named it! Thirty thousand fire bricks! Ten thousand hollow bricks! All sold! Not enough! The townspeople want more! They want at least ten more Kiln bricks! Hahahaha!!!"

The captain, who was standing on the carriage with his upper body bare and holding a fan, was so excited that he laughed loudly. The residents of Rogge Town were even crazier than he imagined. They rushed to buy them all, but it took them a lot of time to transport the bricks and lime to the residents' homes.

"At least ten kilns of bricks? No problem, just a day's work. I have barely grasped the temperature changes of the bricks. The reconstruction of Rogge Town must be done quickly. How are the oranges on the boat selling?"

Mu Qian stood up and stretched, he would not be surprised by what he had expected.

"That little devil named Jiya has already sold half a boatload of oranges for us, and those little guys know how to sell goods, hahaha, just now I actually bought juice squeezed from our oranges in a small town! The juice squeezed from two oranges actually sells for 600 Berries?! And I actually thought I was not losing money at that time?!"

The captain, who had made a lot of money today, laughed with a red face.

"How about it? Is my orange juice recipe good?"

Motivated by the cheerful atmosphere of the sailors, Mu Qian also asked the captain with a smile on his face.

"I knew that orange juice was made by you?! And the extra heat in Rogue Town today must be your fault, right?!"

Not surprisingly, the captain laughed even louder.

"There is nothing more comfortable than drinking a glass of iced orange juice on a hot day, isn't it? I just reasonably analyzed what everyone wants and wants, and give everyone better. As for the temperature If so, it’s not a problem for the temperature to be one or two degrees higher occasionally in summer, isn’t it?”

Mu Qian returned with a leisurely smile, he didn't admit the captain's question, and of course, he didn't refuse either.

"You are an unbelievable bastard profiteer! Hahaha! Let's go! Uncle treats you today! Don't do any research! Go to Rogge Town and have a good meal!"

The captain strode up to Mu Qian, put his arms around Mu Qian's shoulders, and then pulled him and the booing sailors towards Rogge Town, laughing.

All the sailors who worked hard all day moving bricks came back together and went around a long way to pick Mu Qian to the city. This kind of treatment made Mu Qian have no reason to refuse their enthusiasm.

"Wow! Damn it! Is it still too late to take a shortcut?!"

When a large group of people talked about their dreams and went away, Gia, holding a small basket containing egg bacon sandwiches, barbecue and juice, poked her head out of the woods, and felt her small mouth muttering as she watched the crowd going away. with.

"Late? What's late?"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! what ah! Sister Kuina you walk without sound?! You deliberately scare me right?!"

Suddenly there was a sound behind her, which made Jiya scream and jumped out of the grove. After seeing clearly who was standing behind her, she was so scared that she screamed and blamed with a gentle smile. It was Kuina who deliberately scared her just now.

"No, I deliberately stepped harder when I was walking, but a little girl who didn't care here didn't hear it at all."

Kuina smiled and looked at Jiya who contained sandwiches, barbecue and orange juice in a small basket in her hand. Hehe, she joked with a smirk that after earning money, she changed into new clothes, and even dressed up her little girl.

"Nonsense! Sister Guina, you did it on purpose! Also! I'm not here to deliver dinner to that uncle! I just think the moon is beautiful tonight! That's why I want to have a picnic!"

Giya, who noticed Kuina's sight, blushed instinctively and hid the small basket behind her.

"Hehe, okay, you just want to have a picnic, but I want to go back to Rogge Town and attend their party by the way, but I accidentally got lost, Jiya, can you take me back to Rogge Town ?”

Kuina raised her hand to slightly cover her mouth, and asked Jiya with an extremely classic and elegant smile.

"Hmph, sister Guina, you got lost in the end, there is really nothing you can do about it, let's go, go this way!"

Jiya patted her small chest, not knowing that she was being led by the nose by Kuina, she raised her head proudly, pointed to the direction Mu Qian and the others left and said to Kuina.

"Sister Guina, let me carry the package in your hand, I am very strong!"

Seeing the package in Kuina's left hand, Gia walked towards Kuina, and obediently wanted to carry something for Kuina who was very kind to her.

"No need, this 'thing' is heavy and a bit dirty, I'll just carry it."

Kuina smiled and raised her right hand to stop Jiya who wanted to carry something for herself, and said after holding Jiya's little hand with her right hand to completely stop her behavior.

"Woo~ It's obvious that Jiya is very strong!"

"Hehe, I know, but you are a younger sister, how can an older sister ask a younger sister to carry things?"

Holding Ji Ya's little hand full of calluses, Ku Yina shook her arm with some distress and led her towards the direction Mu Qian and the others left.

It was also thanks to the fact that it was dusk, and the shadow of the woods prevented Giya from seeing the blood slowly dripping from the bottom of the 'package' in Kuina's hand.
