Pirate Merchant

"You're going to sea with the ship? What about your orange orchard?"

The lucky aircraft carrier slowly sailed into Cocoyasi Village, and when it parked in front of the orange orchard to pick up dozens of murlocs who had not been arrested by the Dragon Pirates that had made a deal with him before, Mu Qian was arrested. Nuo Qigao, who was carrying a small backpack, was stopped.

After Nuo Qigao proposed to Mu Qian that he wanted to go to sea, he thought he had heard it wrong at first.

"There is Uncle Kensuke who looks after the village, and Master Koshiro sends disciples to look after the Isshin Dojo branch in the village. I also want Aunt Bermer's oranges to see the world, so I can plant them on your boat. Go to the Orangery?"

Qinuo Gao looked at Mu Qian who was suffering from a headache in front of him, and Nuo Qigao, who liked to see him having a headache, couldn't help but chuckled.

"No, the orange orchard takes up too much space on the deck, and the weather at sea is unpredictable, so the oranges are not suitable for survival. I advise you to give up the idea of ​​planting an orange orchard on the ship, and take good care of one or two orange trees."

Mu Qian sighed and complained about Nuo Qigao, denying her idea of ​​planting oranges on the deck area of ​​the mothership, but he did not refuse her request to go to sea.

"That's a pity. By the way, this is my new canned orange. Do you want to eat it?"

Nuo Qigao shook his head regretfully, then pulled the backpack, took out a sealed can from it, and handed it to Mu Qian with a hearty smile.

"The taste is great, and it can be made and sold as a commodity, but it's not suitable for running a business with a ship, because the cost is too high. The most suitable thing is to do wholesale production on the island."

Eating the canned oranges that Nuo Qigao gave him, Mu Qian said to Nuo Qigao with bright eyes.

"I don't know how to do wholesale. This is specially made for you to eat. If you want, I can write the recipe to you."

Mu Qian's surprise expression made Nuo Qigao unconsciously raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and raised his hand to tuck the wind-blown hair from his forehead behind his ears.

Under the blowing of the sea breeze, her short blue hair fluttered in Mu Qian's direction just like her master's mood that day.

"Canned fruit, indeed, canned fruit can indeed build a factory on the mothership to produce glass bottles on a large scale, and then purchase the finished canned fruit on the island to bottle, and then sell it to pirates, merchants, and the navy as a brand."

Mu Qian, who was eating canned oranges one after another, frowned and thought about ways to make money, and felt more and more feasible.

After all, in addition to canned oranges, other fruits that are not easy to preserve can also be made into canned fruits and sold to sailors and pirates who have been at sea for a long time.

And I just need to teach the fruit growers on the island how to make cans, sell them glass bottles, and buy them in a unified manner.

"Do you like this canned orange very much?"

Nuo Qigao looked at Mu Qian who was gulping down canned oranges and even drank all the sugar water, his smile like the warm sun in early spring was as gentle as the moist sea breeze blowing by at this moment.

"I do like eating sweets, but eating too much sweets makes me feel high, which leads to temperature imbalance and heat, so generally I will restrain my sugar intake."

Mu Qian raised his hand to condense the glass bottle in his hand with a layer of water droplets at low temperature, then raised the temperature to sterilize the glass bottle, and returned it to Nuo Qigao after cleaning the glass bottle.

"You go and take your luggage. This time, the supplies are almost replenished. We will head to the South China Sea in half an hour. It will be a week before we return to the East China Sea."

After looking at the sky to determine the approximate time, Mu Qian patted the shoulder of Nuo Qigao who was only carrying a small backpack, turned around and walked towards the lifting platform.

"I have a lot of things, so you can carry my luggage for me. If it doesn't work, I'll just take this as a salute."

Nuo Qigao looked at Mu Qian who turned to leave, if it was any other girl, she would probably be shy and not bother Mu Qian.

However, as Nami's sister of the Straw Hat Pirate Shipmaster, she has a strong personality, resolute but also cunning and intelligent, she stopped Mu Qian without a trace of hesitation, and made her request to him.

"Okay, how many? Do you need me to get the sailors to help?"

Mu Qian stopped, turned around and asked Nuo Qigao with a smile.

"No, the two of us can just finish it."

Nuo Qigao hurriedly said to Mu Qian when he heard that Mu Qian wanted to call the sailor for help.

However, although Nuo Qigao said that she rarely saluted, after following her to the hut, Mu Qian had a deep understanding of the concept of "less" in the young girl's mouth.

"Huh, everyone be a little more sincere in the future. Your salutes are not called helping to carry the salute, but helping to move."

Carrying a bed on his shoulders, Mu Qian, who piled up a pile of salutes on the bed, put the bed in front of a small building, stretched his sore waist, and complained about Nuo Qigao, who came up on the elevator platform empty-handed.

"I'm weak, why don't you move the salute in for me? I'll treat you to canned oranges."

Nuo Qigao moved to Mu Qian's side with her hands behind her back and smiled, and said to Mu Qian in a low voice.

"I'm not from a moving company. I've moved it all up for you. I'll tidy it up myself. I'm going to sail."

Mu Qian's bloodless legs trembled. It was almost impossible to move this pile of small things in every half hour. If they couldn't keep them all, the girl had to tidy up the room for her.

"Then move the bed and the things on the bed to the second floor for me. I won't tear down the bed. I want to put the bed on the second floor."

Nuo Qi raised her head and looked at the small three-story steel building in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh that the living standard of this ship is really high.

One family is directly allocated a building, and it is rent-free. It is estimated that he is the only one in the world who can do such a luxurious thing.

"Okay, I really don't have time to help you move things. If you really need help, a bunch of guys here are willing to help you, a beautiful girl."

Mu Qian lifted the bed again, and then jumped to the balcony on the second floor. After melting the metal wall in the balcony, he carried the bed and walked into it.

"I don't trust them, and besides, I don't like people touching my stuff."

After entering the room, Nuo Qigao, who came to the second floor, leaned against the door, looked at Mu Qian who was repairing the wall with his ability, and said with a smile.

"Well, all the doors and windows have locks. After locking them from the inside, unless someone steals the key from your hand, no one can open the doors and windows I made except me. Remember to lock the doors at night."

After repairing the wall, Mu Qian knocked on the window, and said to Nuo Qigao who was blocking the door and didn't let him leave.

"You are also the captain of this ship anyway. Although it is probably impossible for you to show me around this ship, can you introduce me to some of the internal facilities of this building?"

Nuo Qigao looked at Mu Qian who was standing by the bed and wanted to leave, and said to him with a wicked smile.

"I know, I know. It seems that if you don't introduce this place to you, you probably won't let me leave. As for this mothership, only the deck area is in use, and the cabin area has not been developed. When I’m a client, I’ll invite you to visit with me.”

Mu Qian shrugged his shoulders and made a general appointment, sighed and complained to Chinogao.

After speaking, he led her to visit the building with independent bathrooms, two kitchens and ten bathrooms, nine bedrooms and three living rooms, heating pipes, air-conditioning pipes, and electric lights.

Moreover, the kitchen on the first floor also has an adjustable cold storage connected to the air-conditioning pipe, and the configuration of the small sky garden on the roof pushes the luxury of this small building to a higher level.

And except for the coldness of the bare metal, there is no defect in this building. During Mu Qian's extremely proud introduction, Nuo Qigao, who never left his eyes behind him, nodded in satisfaction.
