The Collection of The End - Chapter 1958

—Sea Circular Calendar, 1500 —

East China Sea, Orange Town Exchange.

[Property: 4848 Bailey]

…the numbers are getting more and more unlucky.

Jin Jing, who was wearing the “White Jingjing” vest, looked at the inventory and thought.

The cloth purchased from Shields Town to Orange Town should have made a profit of 700, but due to a fierce naval battle, some of the goods were soaked in water, and the traders of the exchange haggled the price, which shrunk to 604 Bailey. After that, all the sailors were upgraded, and each took another 20 Bailey’s “upgrade fee” for some unknown reason, and finally only 404 Bailey remained.

Theoretically speaking, if you destroy the “Black Cat Pirates”, you should have your own share of the stolen goods and stolen money, but that will only be obtained after the Navy spends time to count it and then sell it through official channels.

There is a problem with the system and process. Even if Monka is not injured and hospitalized, it will not go anywhere.

Now, she should part ways with Monka’s fleet, buy lemons to sell to Rogue Town, and then buy a small spinnaker merchant ship worth 8,000 Baileys.

It is the most expensive among small boats, and it is also the type with the largest cargo capacity and the largest number of sailors. However, because the interior of the ship is made into a cargo space, it is impossible to install the fort. If you have to install it, you can only install the bow and stern guns. This kind of power is better than nothing.

In other words, if you go out to sea on this kind of ship, you can only fight hand to hand when encountering pirates. Both the robber and the robbery target want to get close to each other… Is this a two-way run?

After changing ships, the two ships form a fleet, which can pull a total of 100 units of goods. For a line with a profit of 200 Bailey per unit, from Orange Town to Rogge Town, you can earn 20,000 in one trip, and five trips will be enough. Earn back Bounty and Sam’s bounty… well, probably not.

Aside from the sudden drop in selling price due to too much cargo being shipped in one go, and the damage that would occur during naval battles and journeys, the most critical problem is… There is simply not that many goods in Orange Town.

Although the surrounding town and the orchard are full of orange trees and lemon trees, it is not a stealing vegetable farm. It can be ripened once a day. The 20 units of lemons requested this time have bought a third of the stock on the exchange. One, in other words, at least this visit, Orange Town had only 60 units of lemons in stock.

Also don’t know how often their inventory refreshes…

“Xiaojing,” Tang Sanfu walked in from the door, looked left and right, and walked in the direction of Jin Jing: “Mengka is awake, getting along well with Chloe and Zangao.”

You know what a ghost, Jin Jing rolled her eyes quietly, because she used “shaved” to frighten Clow. In order to prevent the trumpet from continuing to make any “human-like” words and deeds, she directly “driven” him to the vicinity of the exchange. switch roles.

“My order has been negotiated,” Jin Jing nodded to the clerk and greeted Tang San’s funeral, “But now there is no one to move the goods, we have to rest in Orange Town for the night.”

“Yeah,” Tang Sanfu nodded, “After a hard fight, it’s a reasonable choice for you to give them some rewards and allow them to go ashore and relax, but they may also be frightened by the battle and stop boarding the ship.”

…how do you say “a hard fight”?

Forget it, it seems that the operation of “giving sailors with enough experience money to upgrade them” is incomprehensible to non-reincarnators.

However, it is clear that “Bai Jingjing” and “Tang San Burial” are directly added to upgrade and learn skills. When those sailors arrive, they have to take a day off?

Orange Town Tavern.

The tavern in Orange Town is much larger than the one in Shields Town, perhaps because it is the site of the Navy’s 153rd Branch, the Navy will not deliberately run out of the base, and those whose identities and behaviors are not very scrutinized dare not. Stay there for a long time.

After Jin Jing followed Tang Sanbu into the tavern, she immediately found five or six sailors on the “White Dragon Horse”. They were arrogantly bragging with other local drunkards, and the content was basically about how they fought against one another. Ten, overturning the “deeds of glory” of the Black Cat Pirates.

Since they did participate in the battle, what they said was somewhat believable. After the other alcoholics heard it, they also began to brag about their past. During this alcohol-filled interaction, the sailors occasionally heard He had a thoughtful look when he said something.

Could this be some kind of… upgrade process?

“Any interesting rumors recently?” Tang Sanfu asked the bar owner.

Ah, I forgot to switch roles, but it doesn’t matter, after all, the tavern owner’s quest can be skipped.

In most cases, the tasks given by the tavern owner are “catch a certain pirate who is looting nearby”, “transport the goods of a certain unit to a certain place”, “remove a certain sea beast wandering in a certain area” Drive away”, “investigate a place with a rumored treasure” and so on, basically, corresponding tasks will be issued according to the strength. These tasks will not be accepted immediately, but will not be replaced for a period of time unless they are picked up by others or Cancelled for any reason.

The “King of the Offshore Sea” last time… was purely accidental.

“Interesting rumors?” The tavern owner glanced at Tang Sanfu: “Have you heard of the ‘Black Cat Pirates’ that was destroyed by the Navy recently?”

“Slightly heard.” Tang San replied.

“As we all know, they just wiped out the fleet, not their hometown,” the boss continued without waiting for him to respond: “Usually, after the navy arrests these pirates, they will **** them to empty their hometown. , but this time it is different. The naval officer in charge of arresting, named Carmon or Monka, was seriously injured in the battle and will not be able to do it for a while, so there is a Opportunity — an opportunity to gain access to the wealth they have amassed.”

“As we all know,” Tang Sanfu replied in the same tone, “The pirates’ savings is only the money for the next meal, and who knows where their old nest is?”

“You don’t know, I don’t know, but they’ve been active for so long, someone will always know, and these insiders must have taken action,” the tavern owner blinked: “If you ‘just’ get it from these people Knowing where the place is, and ‘accidentally’ getting some good stuff, I’m willing to buy them for my collection.”
