She’s Hard to Get - C304 Revealing a scam

He discovered that this place was still a small island, and the items would definitely be transported away once they were brought here. Then why didn’t the Yu Di send these fish to the pier near the shore?

He wanted to ask Yu Di about it, but he had already started working with the workers. The boxes of seafood were moved to the shore, and everyone carried them on their back. This kind of dedicated state made Ouyang Jue unable to bear disturbing it, and he could only stay where he was and think of a way.

“We’ll follow them. There should be workers in the warehouse.”

Ning Caier also felt that this place was not like a normal dock. Normally, the wharves would be very big, not only would they have to pick up all kinds of aquatic products and the various goods that would be delivered by cruise ships. Right now, this wharf could only be considered a pier in the countryside.

This kind of wharf had no transportation efficiency, but she knew that if she wanted to transport the seafood out, there would be a boat coming to support her. The people who came to support her must not be from a small race like the Yu Di, as there were so many seafood that only big cities could digest them.

However, these people did not think about anything else, their movements were very consistent as well, they all transported the goods to a large warehouse hundreds of meters away. Ning Caier and Ouyang Jue felt that this warehouse was the main focus of their journey, they had been waiting for a long time for this phone call.

He had the same tanned skin and the same strong arms, and if anything was different, it would be his eyes. His eyes did not have any simplicity, it was completely filled with a greedy look, and even his body had a large stench of copper.

And the way he looked at Ning Caier was even more disgusting. He told Ouyang Jue to quickly hide Ning Caier behind his back to show that she was his woman. The man looked at Ouyang Jue’s sturdy arms and decided to back off. He pretended to be strolling on a high chair looking at the workers who were moving things around.

Ouyang Jue did not want to bother with him, but after looking around the warehouse once, he realised that he was the only worker, so he could only try to greet him.

“Hello! Do you understand English? We want to borrow the phone? ”

Ouyang Jue greeted the man in English, but he did not react as if he did not understand anything, he only looked into the distance in a daze. Ouyang Jue and Ning Caier could only continue walking, this place was so big that it was impossible to only have one person looking at the warehouse, there must be other workers inside.

But the moment they moved their feet towards the warehouse, the man immediately shouted, as if Ouyang Jue stepped on his tail, “Bastard! Do you want to steal something!? ”

As the president, he had never been treated with such courtesy before. However, when he looked down at his clothes, he immediately understood the reason, because he did not look like the boss at all, and even if he were to reveal his identity, no one would believe him.

She and Ning Caier now had the same fishy smell as the crew members on the boat, and their bodies were also covered with mud. Washing in the boat could not be done with fresh water, and they could only use seawater to wash their bodies, but this way, a layer of salt on their skin and the soil in the air would constantly mix, making them extremely dirty.

Since Ouyang Jue was born, he had never tried such a slovenly appearance. Adding to the fact that the clothes he wore were all given to him by the crew, other than his Asian appearance, he was no different from the crew here.

No wonder the person guarding the warehouse would look at them like that. It turned out that he was looking down on people with his dog eyes and only looked down on them.

“We’re not trying to steal things, we’re trying to use the phone! Do you know where the phone is? ”

Although Ouyang Jue wished he could drag this person down and beat him up, he had more important things to do right now, so he tried his best to speak to this person in an amiable manner. Currently, he was the only one on this pier who could understand English, so Ouyang Jue had no choice but to let himself suffer for the time being as he spoke with a low voice.

It was just that the person guarding the warehouse seemed to have gone deaf. When Ouyang Jue talked to him, he would raise his eyes to the sky and pretend that he could not hear anything, and when Ouyang Jue wanted to go inside to take a look, he would stop him.

This made Ouyang Jue especially anxious. If it wasn’t for Ning Caier dragging him from the back, he really wanted to rush forward and pull him down. He knew what Ning Caier was worried about, because the guard held a gun in his hands. Although it was an old style shotgun with a long range, it was two meters above Ouyang Jue, and this position would definitely cause fatal harm to Ouyang Jue, which was extremely disadvantageous to them.

“Hey!”

When they didn’t know what to do, Yu Di suddenly shouted from behind them. The guard seemed to be afraid of Yu Di, and after hearing Yu Di’s voice, he hurriedly jumped down from his chair and bowed, and even threw his shotgun to the side.

Ouyang Jue heard a cracking sound and realized that the shotgun had been split into two sections. It was originally an incomplete weapon that could only be used for self-defense, it could only be used as an iron pipe and could not hurt people. He regretted that he was being too conservative just now, if not, the guard would have been beaten into a piece of bread that even Yu Di would not be able to recognize.

The guard’s face changed completely in front of Yu Di. He reached out to take the two snapper in his hands. On the other hand, the other item that Yu Di took out was even more surprising. He actually caught more than ten little sharks, but he did not let this guard take them away.

The two of them muttered in their own language for a long time. Ouyang Jue did not know what they were talking about, he only knew that the man took the snapper and ran into a small house that was built on the second floor of the warehouse. Through the small window, Ouyang Jue could see that there was another person there. That person should be the real owner of this place, and the guard from before was just a fake.

“Ignore him, he’s not a good person.”

Yu Di briefly explained the situation of the guard to Ouyang Jue, and also repeated what he had just said, as if he had heard it all. It turned out that the guard did not ignore Ouyang Jue, but instead only scolded him for not knowing anything, which made Ouyang Jue a little disappointed.

This man looked European from the outside, his skin was very white and his hair was yellow. Ouyang Jue believed that they would definitely be able to understand his words, since he would be able to master a few of all the European languages, regardless of which country this European came from.

“These things aren’t good. My things are good.”

The European came over and threw the two snapper fish on the ground. At the same time, he had the guard go to the warehouse to take out some things of his. He spoke in French and although he had a thick accent, Ouyang Jue was confident enough to communicate with him. Moreover, the person in charge of the warehouse beside him seemed to be the translator, and was in charge of explaining the price to Yu Di.

Although his words were very vague, the numbers were very accurate. Ouyang Jue immediately understood that this was not a currency exchange, but a barter. The Yu Di used fish to trade for food and other tools.

Ouyang Jue didn’t want to ruin the business between Yu Di and him, so he decided to wait until they were done talking before talking about his matter with Ning Caier. However, he soon discovered that the European was lying. He had used some worthless tools and fabrics to exchange for a lot of fish that would cost thousands of dollars a catty in a high-end restaurant. This was not an equivalent trade at all.

The most important thing was that the things that Ouyang Jue saw as second-hand children’s books were actually more expensive than the two deep-sea snapper’s books. The European had offered twenty snapper for one book, yet he agreed to such an unreasonable request.

Therefore, they would feel that this kind of paper book was extremely valuable. Now, Ouyang Jue finally understood why they built the transition port on this kind of island, because only this European could make such a huge profit from this, and this amount of money was much more than when they transferred the fish.

“It’s not fair at all. These things are very valuable, and there’s more to it than that.”

When Ouyang Jue warned the two in fluent French, the European and the man in charge of the warehouse were both stunned. They did not expect that such fluent French could be spoken by a member of the archaic race, causing the European to gape in shock. What he did not want to see the most was the people from the outside world on the Yu Di’s boat.

“You are not qualified to say that. I am their savior. It was I who taught them how to fish.”

The reason why the Europeans continued to beautify their own actions was so that Ouyang Jue could shut up. It was because he had spent a huge amount of effort to make these primitive people work for him, even providing them with a fishing boat.

This kind of large-scale fishing boat was obviously new to the Yu Di and the rest. Although they had paid a huge price for this fishing boat for seven whole years, and had not collected a single cent of the fish they caught in the past seven years, leaving all of them to the European to repay their debts, the European still assumed the role of a savior, as if he had already starved to death without his race.

“So you’ve already used them to earn a lot of money, shouldn’t it be fair now? A fish for twenty books, isn’t that a hundred times more expensive?”

Ouyang Jue was an expert at negotiation, at the same time, his brain was calculating quickly. According to the daily catch of Yu Di and the others, these people had spent at least ten times the price to purchase this fishing boat, and in order for them to be able to do business again in the future, Ouyang Jue’s current offer had left this European with an extremely high profit. However, this European clearly did not approve of the price, he believed that everything was his.
