Pirate Merchant

"Everyone, please look to the right~ There are the remains left behind after the final battle between the Pirate King Monkey D. Luffy and the Great Ship Master!"

Three years later.

On the west side of the Shampoo Islands, which has been filled in and expanded several times in size, in a tourist bus passing by, the female tour guide held a microphone and loudly introduced to the tourists a tower in the distance with countless giant sword blades and fist seals. From such a long distance, you can feel how terrible that battle was on the island.

"Although no one knows the outcome of the battle, the scene where the ship owner and the Pirate King shook hands and made peace at the banquet in the Lucky Mothership is an unforgettable scene that spans the ages!"

The female tour guide said with longing in her eyes. She only regretted that she was still studying at that time and had no chance to attend that banquet.

"I'm very sorry, the vehicle generator needs to be filled with water, and this is the only resting point in the new city of Shampoo Islands. Please feel free to hang out and rest. We will continue our departure in an hour~"

As the sightseeing tour bus stopped, the female tour guide led a group of middle-aged and elderly people down with a small flag, and then ran away amid dissatisfaction that everyone thought this was compulsory consumption.

"This is fifteen hundred berries. The number of people you brought this time is a bit small."

When the female tour guide was running behind the small store on the side of the road, a young store owner with gray hair and red eyes complained to the female tour guide with some dissatisfaction.

"If you think it's too little, I think it's too little! It's the off-season for tourism, so it would be nice to have more than a dozen people."

The female tour guide took the berry handed to her by the shop owner and ordered it carefully. After making sure it was correct, she rolled her eyes at the shop owner.

"Indeed it is~ But this is a new urban area and will definitely develop in the future. Are you interested in buying a piece of land near here? I have an acquaintance who can give you a lot of discounts~"

The shop owner looked around and asked her with a mysterious smile.

"Forget it! With my small salary and enough money to buy land, I might as well buy a cheaper house, or directly pre-purchase commercial housing on Mothership No. 7! In this age of aviation! Buying land on the ground is the stupidest thing!"

The female tour guide rejected the shop owner's proposal with a look of disgust on her face.

"I think the sky is now saturated, and everyone will return to the ground after being extremely luxurious."

The abandoned shop owner continued to persuade without paying any attention. He really hoped to have a neighbor to come over to keep him company. It was indeed a bit lonely now that he was the only one living in a ten-mile radius.

"No need, next time I will increase the benefit fee to 3,000 beli, otherwise there is no need to discuss it!"

The female tour guide refused again.

"Three thousand beli?! Did you double the amount? One thousand and eighty! Anyway, you are just on the way around the city!"

When the shop owner heard that the other party wanted three thousand beli, he denied it with an exaggerated expression.

"Hmph! Two thousand eighty! Or else we'll have an interview!"

"Two thousand at most! I just run a small business!"

The sound of fierce bargaining continued at the back of the store, and tourists entered the small store one after another.

"You weren't there when the customers came, and you showed up now that all the customers have left. Boss, you really aren't afraid of losing money at all."

Abis, who was half exhausted from making grilled sausages, oden, and udon noodles, slumped on a chair and looked at the shop owner who was even more unhappy than her with a displeased face, complaining about him who just came back after finishing his work.

"I was blackmailed out of 2,500 beli! Damn it! Abis! How much did we sell this time?"

The shop owner, who was thirsty when he walked into the store, picked up the soda, opened it and took a sip. He gritted his teeth as if he had suffered a huge loss, and asked Abis, who was lying on the counter without wanting to move.

"Those weird little items were sold for 27,000 berries, and the sausages, oden, and udon noodles were sold for 68,000 berries. Hum, my craftsmanship is no worse than yours, boss?!"

Abis proudly showed off her strength to her boss.

"Hahaha! Of course! You are the clerk I like! Our goal is to become bigger and stronger! Then let's open branches of 'Xiaomu Convenience Store' all over the world!"

The shop owner smiled triumphantly with his hands on his hips.

"Oh, stop painting cakes for me! You just came out of the island just to see me! You tricked me into coming to such a remote place with your sweet talk!"

Abis covered her forehead and complained viciously. She was also deceived by the handsome boy, and she was so easily deceived into coming to such a remote place with an hourly salary of 800 beri!

"Don't worry about such details! My business sense is the best in the world! The location that everyone doesn't pay attention to now will definitely be a prime location that is hard to find for money! This is the headquarters of Xiaomu Convenience Store! After encircling a large piece of land ! You will definitely become the new focus! From now on, Abis, you will be the CEO of my Xiaomu convenience store!"

The shop owner laughed heartily with his hands on his hips, and his laughter that spoiled the rescue appearance made Abis shake her head frequently.

"Stop making excuses for me! I will definitely resign next month! It's useless to say anything!"

Although the current hourly wage is indeed 800 beri, but after learning that the lowest hourly wage in the main city of the Chambord Islands is 1,000 beri, Abis feels that she is being sucked by this boss every day! And I have been smoking it for more than a month!

"Don't paint, don't paint, young people nowadays don't have the spirit of hardship. Although I only give you an hourly salary of 800 Berries, I let you learn how to manage and coordinate. These things are other things. What you can’t learn in the local area is these intangible wealth. You are equivalent to earning an hourly salary of 2,000 Berries. Young people, you win by being magnanimous, and losing by being careless.”

The store owner kept sighing, as if Abis had lost some great opportunity.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you!"

The corner of Abis's mouth twitched after being force-fed chicken soup for the soul by the boss, and she resisted the urge to beat up the young gray-haired stingy boss.

"Oh my god?! Mr. Mu actually resigned from the Lucky Chamber of Commerce last month?! Is this a fake newspaper?!"

After cleaning up, Abis sat on the counter and opened the newspaper delivered by the newspaper bird, and the headline of the newspaper was a piece of news that shook the world.

"Insiders said that Mr. Mu resigned from all positions on June 14? He was replaced by the former CEO of the Lucky Chamber of Commerce, Jiya Mu?! Wait, is Mr. Mu's name Antonio Mu?! No! Didn't you just turn 18?!"

Abis opened her mouth wide. This new gossip really scared her. The actual leader of a transnational organization recognized by the world government is actually a young girl? ! Is this world so magical? !

"Boss! Boss! Mr. Mu, who created the Lucky Chamber of Commerce, actually resigned from the Lucky Chamber of Commerce?! Pinch me! I feel like I'm dreaming!"

Abis stood up from the chair and quickly ran to the boss who was arranging the goods, pulling his arm, completely unable to believe it was true.

"You asked me to pinch this~"

The store owner's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to grab Abis's soft little face, and pulled it vigorously without any thought of pity. In Abis's miserable screams, her face was crushed like dough. Raise it high.

"It hurts! Bastard! Who made you push so hard?!"

On the right side, Abis with a flushed face kept kicking the bastard boss with her hot tears, and her thoughts of resigning immediately became more and more intense.

"Hahaha~ Your face feels so good, I can't hold back~"

The store owner narrowed his eyes as if recalling the soft touch of Abis's face and said, but he completely ignored the behavior of Abis kicking his calf.

"Boss! You know a lot of people, do you know why Mr. Mu resigned?"

Abis covered her face with her left hand, curiously raised the newspaper in her hand like a cat tickling and asked.

"It's boring. Once something becomes complete, you will feel bored, so you want to try something new. Maybe that Mr. Mu is somewhere at this time, bringing a new friend to do something else without telling everyone. things are uncertain."

The shop owner laughed and teased Abis.

"Hmph, it sounds like you are Mr. Mu. I met Mr. Mu when I was 8 years old! He is much more handsome than you! He won't turn gray at a young age!"

Apis, who was being ridiculed, complained about her petty and childish boss with a full face of disgust.

"Damn it! I'm not white-haired! But dyeing my hair is very troublesome! And it hurts my hair too! If I'm not worried about baldness! I'll dye it black right away!"

As soon as the shop owner heard Abis complain about her gray hair, she explained anxiously as if someone had stepped on her life.

"Hmph! I'm ignoring you!"

Abis turned and ran away clutching her face that was still in pain. Her face was so painful that she planned not to talk to the boss for a few days.

"Tsk~ Remember to prepare the ingredients for the evening~ Otherwise, we will all be hungry. Of course, if you want to invite me to eat takeaway, I will be very happy~"

"Evil ghost! Vampire! A capitalist who eats people without spitting out bones!"

In the boss's yelling, Abis froze all over, she was exhausted from receiving tourists just now, she turned her head and cried loudly.

But after scolding the boss, she obediently went to the back kitchen to prepare the ingredients for tonight. Although she really wanted to get angry and not prepare the ingredients, the delivery fee in this wilderness is too expensive! And this stingy boss kept his word in deducting his salary!

"Is it exposed so soon? It's only a little over a month."

Mu Qian, who came here incognito after resigning, picked up the newspaper that Abis put on the counter.

Looking at the incomparably detailed news on the front page, there are really many ghosts in the increasingly large Lucky Chamber of Commerce. If it is not curbed, the power of capital will definitely start to swallow everyone who invests in it.

"Well~ none of my business~"

Sitting on the chair, Mu Qian happily threw the newspaper on the counter, and not long after he sat down, the phone at the counter rang.

"Hey, Lord Im! You...you have been away from Marie Gioia for three years, have you settled your affairs?"

Mu Qian picked up the microphone of the phone worm, and the phone worm grew a thick mustache, a birthmark appeared on his forehead, and begged the shop owner with a bitter expression.

"Not yet, didn't I leave the matter to you as before? Do you want me to deal with all this shit? Don't you know that I am still upset after losing to the Straw Hat Boy?"

Mu Qian's expression froze, he slammed the table heavily and scolded in displeasure.

"Master Im, this is not a trivial matter! The authority of the world government is weakening, and the navy headquarters has lost contact! Now you are urgently needed to come back and preside over the overall situation!"

The Wulaoxing on the other end of the phone looked increasingly miserable, begging Mu Qian to go back. He had begged Mu Qian more than sixty times this year. He only hoped that this time it would be miraculous.

"Would this world stop spinning if I left it?"

Mu Qian asked Wu Laoxing in a cold voice. Those red eyes scared the phone bug in front of him to foam at the mouth and his eyes turned white.

"Find a way to deal with it yourself. I am currently practicing in hell. It will take another hundred or two hundred years to succeed. I will come back after the Straw Hat Boy dies of old age."

Seeing that the other party didn't reply, Mu Qian yawned boredly and dealt with him casually, then hung up the phone.

"Wait! Yi."

The five old stars on the other end of the phone wanted to say something more, but the call was rudely hung up.

"What a peaceful day~"

After hanging up the phone, Mu Qian stuck his head out of the window, looked at the lucky ship flying slowly in the sky, and sighed at the ease and ease of life now.

"You think so too, right?"

After watching the sub-ship fly by, Mu Qian looked at the three little dragons, puppies and birds lying on the counter like small trinkets, and asked them with a smile. The three trinkets raised their heads while typing. Yawning, he nodded his head casually in response to the master's inquiry.

"Ah~ No! It's time for school to end!"

Mu Qian, who was lying on a chair with his legs crossed and humming a tune while enjoying the quiet afternoon, suddenly got up as if something had occurred to him, picked up the sign on the counter and walked out of the small store, hanging the sign that read 'Hundred Yen Store' at the door.

Not long after he put up the sign, four brand-new school buses stopped in the parking lot in front of his house. The children, who had been impatient for a long time, ran off the school buses and rushed into the store like a group of ferocious beasts. among.

"Don't spread it everywhere! Please put the money in the money jar! Hey! You don't need to choose while eating!!!"

Abis rushed out of the kitchen when she heard the noise outside. She was most afraid of this period of time and yelled at the top of her lungs. She used her supreme store clerk authority to order these naughty children to be obedient.

After seeing the power of these children, the 17-year-old swore that she would never want children in her life!

"Boss! Stop standing outside like a loving old father, smoking and bragging with the driver! Come in and help too!"

Dealing with nearly a hundred children by herself, Abis was so busy that she looked at the four drivers gathered outside the store to discuss building a transport fleet. The boss, who had made a fortune by transporting goods, moving, and running long distances, was desperate. She begged the bastard boss loudly.

"Come on, come on, really, if you can't even manage a hundred children, how can I safely hand over the CEO position to you in the future?"

Amid Abisi's pleading, Mu Qian said goodbye to the drivers with some disappointment and walked into the shop.

When he entered the store, in a small spaceship in the far distance, Lu Qi, who was sent by Kalifa to perform a secret mission, put down his telescope, took the phone bug, and dialed Kalifa's number.
