Pirate Merchant

"Miss Boss! Excuse me, do you need oranges in your shop?"

After leaving a group of sailors to sell oranges on the pier, Mu Qian led the sailors to push the oranges into the windmill village, and entered the tavern in the windmill village surrounded by children.

"Hey! How can you eat other people's food casually?"

Makino, who was cleaning up, looked at the group of little ghosts who were casually eating oranges from the sailor's basket, and yelled at them worriedly.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, as long as the children like it, their parents will be willing to buy more from me when they are hungry, please rest assured, I am a conscientious businessman, and I have made a lot of money from their parents just now."

Mu Qian laughed out loud, looking as naive as a naive guy who doesn't know how to do business at all.

"You really know how to do business, so please give me ten boxes of oranges. If the children like it, I will buy some and keep them in the store."

Although Mu Qian looks naive and doesn't know how to do business, Makino's first impression of him is very good.

She is used to seeing all kinds of vicious pirates, but a kind person like Mu Qian is quite new.

"A basket of oranges weighs about 10 kilograms. Originally, a kilogram cost 200 Berries. Let me give you a 20% discount for a fraction. One basket costs 1,800 Berries. It's a great deal~"

Mu Qian waved his hand to signal the sailors pushing the cart behind him to carry the oranges to the tavern.

"1800 berries?!"

Hearing the low price, Makino was stunned. Is the price of oranges so low now? Is it a defective product that no one wants? No, even if it is a defective product, it should cost about 100 Berries each.

Thinking of this, Makino immediately looked at the baskets of oranges that the sailors carried to the tavern.

The color is as fresh as gold, and the green branches and leaves on the stems of the oranges also prove that these oranges are all freshly picked.

"Hehe, please don't worry about the quality of the oranges. These oranges are all carefully cultivated by me in my spare time with my devil fruit ability. If you think there is any problem, lady boss, I will refund the original price!"

Seeing what Makino was worried about, Mu Qian immediately explained.

"In fact, the high price of fruit is mainly because it is very difficult to transport by sea, and it is difficult to store in a wet cabin. We don't earn shipping fees, and we don't earn fruit storage fees. The price has naturally dropped. So, lady boss, see if you can help me. Let me introduce some that can receive a large amount of goods? The quality of the oranges is absolutely guaranteed!"

Mu Qian casually picked up an orange and pushed it away, then put the fresh and juicy orange in Makino's hand.

"Hehe, you really know how to do business. I will keep an eye out for people who want to buy oranges for you. It's so sweet."

Makino picked up the orange that Mu Qian stuffed into his hand, and after eating a piece of the orange, he exclaimed in disbelief, the price of such a sweet orange is too low, right? ! Originally only planning to buy ten baskets of oranges, she bought all the oranges outside the tavern!

And Mu Qian, who was called by Makino to get the money, was frightened by the small vault under the bar of Makino. The gold coins and gold accessories piled up in her small vault seemed to be traded to her by a "big pirate". of.

"Antonio! We sold a total of 3.2 million berries for this batch of oranges! My God! I have never seen so much money in my life! I have never seen so much gold! Hahaha! I am so happy! Cheers! !!"

Catvin, who was in charge of bookkeeping, cheered excitedly.

The residents of Fengche Village are richer than Mu Qian imagined, and they planned to sell oranges in other villages, but they bought all the oranges in Fengche Village alone, especially the small vault under the bar of Madame Makino. Almost blinded Mu Qian's dog eyes.

"Yeah, it went much smoother than I imagined. I didn't expect to pack up and prepare to go back today."

Looking at the sunny street outside the tavern, Mu Qian estimated that it was only four or five o'clock in the afternoon, drinking wine while smiling and enjoying the celebration of the sailors. lavish celebration.

"Is there any celebration? How about we join in?"

And just when Mu Qian was thinking about whether Luffy was in Fengche Village, and whether he wanted to find him, the door of the tavern was pushed open.

Surrounded by a group of tall men, a one-armed man in a white shirt with three scars on his right eye walked into the tavern.

And after seeing the lively scene in the tavern, he laughed heartily and asked the sailor who had all his movements frozen.

"Sea pirates! Weapons! Get your weapons!"

The sailor closest to the door screamed in panic after seeing the ferocious expression of the person who came in, and loudly asked the surrounding sailors for weapons.

"It's pirates! Stop them! Don't let them hurt the people here!"

"Damn! They have guns! Kill those who use guns first! Prioritize protecting children! Don't let them take hostages!!!"

The fresh-blooded young sailors who had more or less been trained by Koshiro picked up the tables and benches, roared and were about to charge towards Shanks and the others, and the imposing manner of the newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers also calmed down the red-haired pirate for a while. group.

"Wait a minute! Please wait a moment! Mr. Shanks and the others are not villains! Please don't attack each other!"

Makino, who was just cooking orange soup in the kitchen, ran anxiously between the two teams, reached out to stop the sailors, and explained to the sailors who wanted to attack the pirates for the villagers with an extremely embarrassed expression.

"Captain, let everyone calm down. If the other party is some kind of vicious guy, he would have shot us long ago instead of coming in and saying that he wants to participate in the celebration."

Mu Qian looked at Shanks, who didn't have any domineering air, and even had a kind face, and seemed to be easy to talk, and loudly persuaded the sailors to put down the tables, chairs and benches in their hands as weapons.

"Yes, yes, on the shore, we are just a group of drunkards who want to find a tavern to participate in the celebration, Sasa, let's continue to celebrate! All the drinks and food consumed today will be paid for by me! Banquet! ye! Banquet!! !"

Shanks seemed to be frightened by the sailor's ferocious appearance and shrank his neck, then laughed loudly and cheered to relieve the embarrassment, but his eyes fell during the cheers, so he deliberately shrank behind the sailor. On Mu Qian who was willing to step forward.

"Have you noticed me?"

Mu Qian, who was glanced at by Shanks, raised his glass politely to him, nodded to show his respect, and then slipped aside.

After confirming that Shanks was not interested in him, he breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest and muttered in a low voice.

Although there was a misunderstanding at the beginning, the red-haired pirates quickly drank happily with the sailors. It was originally just a celebration banquet, but it really turned into a celebration amidst the noise of the red-haired pirates. And Mu Qian's sailors quickly accepted this group of pirates who looked fierce but were very generous.

"Finally, it's time to go to sea. Fortunately, Shanks just glanced at me. It seems that I really can't get into his eyes right now."

In the middle of the night, after driving all the drunk sailors back to the Lucky, Mu Qian ordered a few sailors who were not drunk to anchor and pull the sails, then raised his hand to stir up the warm wind and left the Windmill Village.

It is indeed too early for me to deal with the Four Emperors at my current level. Now I am obediently running business in the East China Sea relying on mobility, slowly weaving my own wings, and waiting for my 'sphere of influence' to include the entire East China Sea and After the great route, it would be better to deal with the Four Emperors.

"I don't know if that guy Lu Fei has gone to sea, forget it, this is not something I should worry about."

Mu Qian looked at the endless sea with some disappointment.

Although he was a little disappointed that he was not sure whether Luffy would go to sea, but the joy of earning the first pot of gold offset the irritability in his heart, and the increasingly bright future made him unconsciously show a somewhat smug smile.

In the early morning of the next day, Lucky, which ran out of the speed of an electric boat with the body of a sailboat on the sea, slowly parked in the port under the blowing of warm wind.

The wife who was waiting for her husband to land at the pier was smiling with tears in the corners of her eyes, and the children who were waiting for their father to bring them gifts happily waved their hands and shouted to their father, father, old man, etc. Dad, his eyes are shining like bright stars to welcome the Lucky Number.

Although the sailors went out to sea for a little more than a day, but for the wives who were waiting for their husbands to return, it seemed like centuries had passed. At this time, they just wanted to hug their husbands and tell him their thoughts, and they were excited. The bear children only care about whether they bought their gifts or not.

But the Lucky hadn't completely docked yet, and the sailors who had already prepared for docking gathered on the deck, shouting loudly to their wives or children that they were safe, and holding up the big bulging purse in their hands, their reddish eyes looked at the ship. My own family roared about their 'future'.
