Pirates: The first partner is Tom Cat

"Hey, Brother Tatsuya is back?"

"Isn't this Tatsuya-chan?"

"Little boss, when will the tavern reopen?"

Zhang Daye and the others were walking on the road to the tavern carrying large and small bags, and people who knew them greeted them one after another.

"I'm back," "Hello," "I'll open after a short rest," Zhang Daye responded one by one.

In fact, he hasn't decided on the opening time yet, or even whether it will open or not.

If the gold harvested this time is sold, it will be enough for them to buy a good ship, but it doesn't feel good to sell the gift they just gave.

Moreover, everyone really likes the gifts they received, so I’m afraid they would be reluctant to sell them directly.

Especially Tom, a golden statue as big as him had to be carried in a bag by himself. When he was tired, he carried it, when he was tired, he continued to hold it, and when he was tired, he continued to hold it, and the cycle continued, making him tired and happy at the same time.

Shark Pepper's gold toothbrush has long been stored in his Shark Head storage cabinet, alongside his own toothbrush.

Rui Mengmeng's golden sword and Altria's golden armor were handed over to Zhang Da who found a suitable cabinet and stored them in the inventory, as did his own golden folding stool.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

Zhang Da also tried the golden folding stool. It was hard and cold, and he felt very awkward in his heart. He just didn't know how it would feel to use it to hit people.

Arturia didn't care much about the armor. She wasn't Gilgamesh, so she didn't like to wander around in shining armor.

In short, whether the gold should be sold for exchange for ships or kept as souvenirs will be decided after everyone discusses it.

Jingle bells~ The wind chimes hanging on the door make a crisp sound, welcoming the return of the tavern owner.

"Ah, so tired~" Zhang Da also put his bag on the table. In fact, he was not tired at all, but after seven or eight days of traveling, he slumped down on his chair when he got home and couldn't help but want to say this.

The one who was really tired was Tom. He had to carry his statue all the way and was so tired that he could hardly stand up.

At this time, he placed the statue on the ground and opened the bag to take a peek from time to time, with a smile on his face.

Artoria is already skillfully boiling water to make tea and getting snacks, but she hasn't had enough of the desserts from Fish-Man Island yet.

Shark Chili took the toothpaste he bought specially from Fishman Island back to his room and sorted it for storage.

Rui Mengmeng took out a rag and mop and planned to clean it up.

After sitting for a while, Zhang Da also planned to sort out the various small gifts and souvenirs brought back from Fish-Man Island. When he saw Tom still holding the statue, he said:

"Tom, would you please move the statue upstairs? It's too conspicuous here, and someone might steal it."

Tom hesitated. In fact, he wanted to show it off downstairs. He is not the kind of person who likes to keep a low profile, but he would really feel bad if someone stole it.

"How about I put it away for you? Take it out when you want to see it." Zhang Da also used the trick used by parents to defraud children of new year's money.

Smart Tom would not believe his lies. He shook his head quickly, picked up the statue and ran upstairs.

Zhang Da didn't care about him. Anyway, Tom was only interested in everything for three minutes. In a few days, he might forget that he still had a statue.

"I'll give Uncle Goodman two bottles of Dragon Palace City's fine wine. This beautiful coral ornament can be given to Mrs. Molly. I can also give them a few of these photos after they are developed. And if Little Bayer says... give me some Fish-Man Island.

Specialty dessert?”

Zhang Da also took out two boxes of desserts from Artoria's bag on the table.

stare……

Arturia's eyes were fixed on Zhang Tatsuya's hand.

Zhang Da also blinked and moved the plate in his hand left and right, and Artoria turned her head left and right accordingly.

Zhang Da also drew a figure of eight in the air while holding the plate, and Artoria also twisted her head into a figure of eight. The hair on her head trembled, making people worry that she might pounce to protect the food.

"This will be deducted from my share, okay?" Zhang Da also couldn't laugh or cry.

Artoria blushed a little. She just acted subconsciously: "It doesn't matter, I don't care. It doesn't matter even if I give away my golden armor."

Zhang Da also smiled and shook his head and put away the gift. It's okay to give away the golden armor, but you will glare at me if you give away the dessert, right?

It's really hopeless.

"Boss, we haven't been back for such a long time. There is no dust at all, and there is no smell in the room left by being without ventilation for too long." Rui Mengmeng said as she went down the stairs.

"Perhaps Uncle Goodman and the others have come to clean the house in the past two days? We'll find out if we ask later." Zhang Da also remembered that he left a key at their house before leaving. With Mrs. Molly's enthusiasm, she might come to clean often.

.

Rui Mengmeng nodded: "Okay, you are so enthusiastic, let me go out to buy some ingredients. Do you need help bringing anything?"

Zhang Da also handed him a few big bills: "Bring back a copy of the newspapers from the past few days. I don't know if there have been any major events recently."

"Okay." Rui Mengmeng collected the money and went out. After a while, she turned back and said, "Boss, there is a letter in the mailbox at the door. It seems to be written to Artoria."

"Huh?" Artoria swallowed what was in her mouth, wiped her hands and took the letter from Rui Mengmeng's hand.

"Who sent it?" Zhang Da was also surprised. He hadn't received a letter for so long. Why did Artoria receive it?

Zhang Daye and Rui Mengmeng suddenly remembered Vander Deken's behavior. Could it be who sent a love letter to Artoria?

"It's Lieutenant General Gion." Artoria's words dispelled their doubts.

"Lieutenant General Gion?" Zhang Da was even more puzzled, "Why did she suddenly write a letter and invite you to join the navy?"

"No." Arturia quickly read through the letter and said: "Last time, you didn't say you would come to me to discuss swordsmanship when you were free. I came the day before yesterday but we were not there, so I left a letter in the mailbox.

inside."

Zhang Da also remembered the last time Gion came to visit after Hawkeye left: "Oh~ It seems to be something like this. He didn't come for a long time after what he said that time. I thought it was just a polite word."

"In addition to saying that I would visit again in a few days, I also complained a little about the recent unsatisfactory things. It seems that I wanted to catch a certain pirate but failed." Artoria summarized the content of the letter and folded the letter.

Pass it to Zhang Daye.

"It's probably because we didn't catch Doflamingo again, right? Last time we gave her a phone bug from Doflamingo's men." Zhang Da also took the letter and felt uncomfortable after taking a look at it.

Forgetting the affectionate terms like 'Jiang' and 'Kis' between the lines, every sentence is written in a coquettish tone, and there is a heart-shaped symbol at the end.

The thin piece of letter paper exuded the fragrance of lilies. It was a shame that Arturia could read it so calmly.

And this woman, Taotu, really has no good intentions!
