Chapter 230: Don't you think this is delivered to your door?(1/2)

Returned to the dock of Paradise Harbor.

The oncoming sea breeze blew on my cheeks.

Yuan Haihang has left.

This merchant ship, under the pirate flag, docked at the dock overnight, bringing a carnival of physical strength and remuneration to the boatmen on the dock.

Even the guards patrolling Paradise Island can't stop the fight between these boatman gangs.

But Yuanhang did it.

I have a good question. Last night, the largest gang of boatmen at the dock put aside their hatred towards each other and worked together to empty the cargo carried by the Voyage.

Of course, they also raised their wallets.

But this situation only lasted for one night.

These boatmen, who had been working together just now, became hostile to each other again.

After all, there is only one Yuan Voyage, and it is not available every day. If you want to survive, you still have to rely on grabbing business.

The three colors of ocher/gray white/light black headscarves have become a symbol to distinguish whether the other party belongs to the same gang.

But in my eyes, there is no difference between these busy guys.

Looking around, it looks like a colony of ants swarming around the dock, looking for work, or busy carrying goods.

Less than a mile away from his feet was the endless turbulent sea filled with white foam.

Ding Xiaoyi felt a little worried for a moment.

I wanted to rush over early and take the Yuan Voyage to my destination.

But now that the Yuanhang is no longer there, it is not easy to get to the destination.

After all, it is a place where foreigners hang out. Ordinary fishing boats dare not go there, and pirate ships will not pull them there.

Although he can use stealth to directly steal a pirate ship.

But the problem is, I can't sail, and I don't know how to sail a boat.

On the contrary, I know the principles of shipbuilding very well.

"Let's look for it. If it doesn't work, just use money to solve it."

Ding Xiaoyi looked at the fishing village in the lower class area not far away. He believed that there must be brave men under the heavy reward.

So we walked along the port towards the fishing village.

Before you even get close, you can smell the unique intoxicating aroma of fruit wine.

It is a fragrance mixed with sweetness and rich wine aroma.

It’s also the cheapest drink.

The raw material for brewing is strong alcohol brewed with sugar cane juice for three years, which is suitable for sailors who are drifting on the ship all year round.

This drink called rum is undoubtedly a cheap and affordable treasure.

If it can be paired with rum behind a mint leaf, it will definitely be a unique enjoyment.

Although this is the lower level of Paradise Island, it is also known as the stinking ditch of Paradise Island.

Although the house looks messy, the floor is still paved with smooth stone slabs.

For a seaport that is often hit by wind and rain, this is a huge but costly project that must be undertaken.

As soon as he walked into the fishing village, Ding Xiaoyi immediately felt the prying eyes surrounding him.

The appearance of a stranger will often attract the attention of people here.

But it's more of a warning.

Occasionally, there were some unkind glances, but when these glances saw Krutu's cold face, they quickly avoided him.

At this time, his eyes suddenly stopped at a small grocery store nearby.

This grocery store has an old and greasy storefront and has an odd name: "Fences, Women and Dogs."

This is not important, the important thing is that the owner of the grocery store looks like an old man from Xia.

Wearing a white turban, he was lying lazily on the same old bamboo chair next to him, smoking a pipe.

In this new world, the proportion of Xia people is not high.

After all, Xia people are born with weak limbs, so unless they are spiritual masters or fallen spiritual masters, they do not have any advantage here.

Therefore, when I see Xia people of the same clan, I feel a sense of closeness in my heart.

He noticed Ding Xiaoyi walking towards him.

The old man sitting in front of the door smoking suddenly became wary.

After all, Ding Xiaoyi thinks that he is of the same race, but he thinks that Ding Xiaoyi is not.

Especially the face that is not friendly at all, always looking like I am glaring at everyone who owes me money.

“Is there anything you need??”

The old man asked carefully.

"I need to find a ship that can go to sea, but the place I go to is a bit dangerous, but I can pay a good reward."

When I heard about the reward, and it was a generous reward.

The old man's eyes lit up and he raised his palms: "At least this number!"

"Can!"

Ding Xiaoyi looked at the old man's palm with only two fingers left, and nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that he agreed so readily, the old man hesitated and added: "I said 20 yuan!"

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm talking about 200!"

When he heard the number 200, the old man's eyes widened. He clapped his thigh and said, "I'll take this job!"

After saying that, he turned back and shouted twice towards the store, and a boy about ten years old came out. He had tanned skin, lean and strong hands and feet, and eyes with a maturity that was inconsistent with his age.

"For 50 yuan, take him out to sea!"

The boy frowned deeply when he heard this: "But what I just heard was 200!"

"Okay, up to 70 yuan, you little brat, what you eat and drink and what I live in are mine, and I haven't even accounted for this with you!"

After the old man glared at the boy and complained a lot, the boy had no choice but to look at Ding Xiaoyi. Although he was a little afraid of this man, he still had the courage to ask: "Where are you going!"

"That group of islands in the eastern bay."

Ding Xiaoyi remembered that the island did not have a specific name in the information, but only vaguely pointed out the general direction.

The boy was stunned and raised his head: "That's the territory of aliens! It's very dangerous."

The word "foreigner" obviously made everyone around him feel uncomfortable.

Most of them are full of fear of foreigners.

Even consider it a devil.

Getting close to their territory is definitely asking for death.

Even the old man couldn't help but hesitate and shook his head: "Forget it, we won't take this job!"

Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyi sighed and was not surprised by the result, so he directly asked for 200 yuan.

Seeing their refusal at this time, I felt relieved.

It is indeed dangerous there. If you let a ten-year-old child take you there, if something unexpected happens, you will not feel good about it.

Remembering that there was a bar down there, he planned to try his luck there.

Look for any pirates who are more willing to help others.

"etc!!"

As soon as he walked down the steps, Ding Xiaoyi heard someone calling him from behind.

I saw the boy just now running over quickly: "I can take you there, but... you have to pay more!"

"How many!"

Seeing the serious expression on the boy in front of him, Ding Xiaoyi crossed his arms and waited for his answer.

"2000!"

Unexpectedly, the boy directly added a fraction after the number.

With 2,000 yuan, you can do a lot of things on the current paradise island.

You know, a bottle of rum here only costs 3 yuan.

Two loaves of bread only cost one dollar.

This made him feel a little disgusted. He had no shortage of money, and was even very rich.
