Chapter 24 If anything unpleasant happens, I will blame everyone here!
Swordsman Spann followed behind him, looking like he was returning from victory.
The second transaction also started at the same time. The people from the Chamber of Commerce first respectfully asked for the box of gold coins and gold jewelry, then opened it on the spot and inspected each piece.
At the same time, Ron was told to be patient and the money temporarily transferred by the Chamber of Commerce would be arriving soon.
After the gold coins and gold jewelry were confirmed to be fine, the payment was delivered to Ron's hands 'just in time'.
certainly,
Both transactions were completed inside the Gus. Everyone was an adult and understood the principle of keeping wealth secret.
"Mr. Ron, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Captain Saren looked so respectful that no one could find fault with him.
He also gave a serious reminder: "The people from the Chamber of Commerce will issue a gag order, and not a single word about this transaction will be leaked. I just hope that you will not leak the contents of the transaction."
After all, what they bought was not just material, but also the reputation of defeating Arrita.
"I still keep my word."
Ron smiled and glanced at the powerful bodyguards outside the room: "As long as you don't plan to secretly take back the money and use it again, then there will definitely be no problem on my side."
"Mr. Ron is joking, who would dare to take your idea when there are pirate hunters? If we have this background, why should we be afraid of Arrita?"
Captain Saren defended with a wry smile, and then seemed to want to prevent anything from happening to them.
He also specially introduced the situation of Cuckoo Island to Ron.
This is the intersection of several routes, so it is very prosperous.
But because of this, there is a mixture of good and bad, including big and small gangs, bounty hunters, pirate spies, pirates, chambers of commerce, mercenary organizations, and so on.
Only there is no naval base or navy, only the locally established guard force, which is only responsible for managing local industries and paying chambers of commerce security.
Therefore, there are troubles happening here every day, and it is an environment full of violence and crime.
In this environment, it is normal for accidents to happen.
After all, this is a non-franchised area!
"What you said makes sense."
Ron nodded suddenly, then smiled: "But I am a very suspicious person. If anything unpleasant happens, I will blame everyone here!"
He emphasized the last sentence.
Although it is a bit unauthentic, it is a new arrival.
He didn't want to risk his life on other people's thoughts, so it was best to give himself some insurance.
"."
Captain Saren's expression changed, and he glanced at Zoro, who had an indifferent expression.
Yes, I confirmed it with my eyes.
He's someone you can't mess with.
Saren took a deep breath and put on a smile: "I understand, the Chamber of Commerce will try its best to make your visit to Cuckoo Island enjoyable."
"That would be perfect."
Ron left and returned to the room, asking Kerby to stay and occupy the room.
Compared with accommodation outside, the environment of the Gus is better and safer. Moreover, the Gus needs to replenish supplies due to the change of route.
It will take a day or two before we can start again.
He then left the money a million beli.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation also cost money. He is a good person and of course he will not do anything for free.
The remaining Bailey was recharged into the dimensional roulette by Ron in one go.
{Chips balance: 18.3 million}
The light curtain refreshed, and Ron happily left the Gus directly.
He did not go to draw the lottery immediately because the lucky lighter was used at noon.
"where are we going?"
"Go check out the tavern."
Ron walked into Cuckoo Town on Cuckoo Island with great interest. He was very interested in the tavern in the background of the Age of Discovery.
I don’t know if there is such a thing as giving money and touching it. It’s that kind of unique environment.
By this time, it was already night time.
"oh."
Sauron's pace also quickened. Compared to the luxurious Gus Tavern, it was the place he was most familiar with.
When he 'travels' to a new place, he will go to the local pub to eat.
Then find the guy in the tavern who has a high bounty on his head, chop him half to death, and give it to the boss to pay for the meal.
The two walked across the street and came to a tavern with a sign that said Broken Wheel.
The mixed sounds were like a wave, and most of the wine tables were filled with men scribbling.
They chatted and laughed with each other about topics such as women, adventure, and livelihood. There were also drinkers talking about pirate bounties.
"Hahaha, so after talking about why this guy only has one hundred beli, is this guy really a pirate?"
"A hundred Baileys? How much did the newspaper you buy this morning cost?"
"It's also a hundred Baileys, but it's just the World Economic News sent by Newsbird."
"Would anyone really catch this guy for a hundred Baileys?"
"Hey, hey, your wine."
"Oh, thanks, Sister Sander."
Several waitresses came and went, bringing drinks and food. There were familiar drinkers frolicking with them.
Ron even saw a bartender holding a few Bailey's bills and stuffing them into the chest of a waitress with a great heart.
So envious. Bah! Moral corruption!
But soon, Ron's attention was attracted by the smell here.
‘It smells like fruit that has been fermenting for a few days mixed with the smell of rotten wood. ’
Ron subconsciously pinched his nose and frowned.
The environment here is different from what I imagined, but if you think about it carefully, it seems normal.
‘Is it only after ten o’clock? It's better to stay a little longer before going back and see if you can do some fishing and law enforcement. ’
Ron deliberately took out his gilt pocket watch and checked the time, and decided to stay a little longer.
His action also attracted the attention of the drinker in the corner.
Those people lowered their heads slightly, and their indifferent gazes fell on Ron from their messy hair.
When they noticed that the green-haired swordsman who was following him suddenly turned his head to look, they quickly turned around and looked at each other.
'The green-haired one is a bodyguard, and he has a fierce aura. ’
'The boy in the lead looked very uncomfortable with the environment. He seemed to be here to experience life. ’
‘The pocket watch is gold-plated and belongs to a rich family. ’
When the duo was seen walking straight towards the bartender, they started talking quietly.
"He seems to be a fat sheep, but the bodyguard doesn't seem to be easy to mess with."
"What are you afraid of? Our boss is the pirate hunter. If he hadn't decided to start a career on Cuckoo Island, would we pirates be lucky enough to survive and join his ranks?"
"Yes, we have to prove ourselves!"
"Well, I hope I can make some money at the same time. Damn it, I still owe a lot of money at the Bloody Hands' casino."
"Then you'd better return it as soon as possible, otherwise you will become the 'food' for those cannibals to prove themselves."
"Well, I'll go find the boss later. I've had enough of drinking this bad drink every day."
Aboard the Gus.
After finishing the follow-up work, Captain Salen met Bex and conveyed Ron's words tactfully.
When you hear, 'If something bad happens, I will blame everyone here! 'hour.
Sir Bex looked a little pale. He didn't want the threats on the Gus to come true.
