Chapter 142 (1/2)
The 142th chapter “The strange fleet”
Although it is still early in the su hints of blazing heat as it glistened off the waters of the Lancang Grand Canal outside the capital
Further down from this life vein of the ee shi+p is already docked in the port of Enke
Due to the heavy tax burden when unloading directly inside the capital city, a lot of s shi+ps would dock in the ports of the surrounding auxiliary towns to reduce their expenses
Right noo e shi+p and conversing with the local tax official After a few minutes of chit chat, one of the merchants quietly fished out some coins wrapped in a cloth and secretly sneaked it into the hands of the official Seeing the other party’s intent, the tax official so and directly signed the necessary documents
Further behind this shady transaction, a large round and waiting for the chance to land a job
“Mr–Mr Hire ht! If you have any valuable goods, it’ll never be daed!”
“Respectful Sir, hire me! I have 20 people under me, only two copper per person! Two copper!”
In the e shi+p had already put down a plank to allow those on board to coet off One dressed like a knight, this beauty had a pair of intoxicating legs that could drive a h, the second lady to coe robe After e robe didn’t look bland in anyway; n due to certain areas being cut off to revealthe attention of everyone down below, the fact that the duo is a rare coht and a sorceress is too hard to ive out a cold snort to shatter the trance like moment and instill fear into everyone nearby with her icy coldness Retracting their eyes, none dared to face their general direction
“Joanna, everyone is afraid of you now” Rolynn snickered a laugh Then looking down at the busy street, she sighed and suet someone to check the stuff, and then quickly unload all of the cargo before tonight because there will be new goods by then If you dawdle and we can’t s!”
A while back, Du Wei sent the two girls with Captain Jack Sparrow and his new right hand e Bush to find the Snow Wolf Mercenaries in the north In a short period of tiroup was able toover the handwritten letter, Beinlich, leader of the snoolfto Du Wei Nors would not have went so s, Beinlich orrying over the price of the goods because the dirty oods to wanted to lower his price by an additional 20 Therefore, when he read the letter and found out about Du Wei’s intent, he felt like he was being given a lifesaving hand in a critical situation
At the saroups like the their goods at the saoods will from now on be sold exclusively to Du Wei
Just like this, the pirate shi+p came back with fruitful results Since there are ports in the north anyways, Rolynn contacted three other pirate shi+ps under Du Wei’s banner and had theroup returned hoic beasts is illegal, so having three shi+ps full of elicit goods on its way back is starting to pull on her nerves Unfortunately for her, Du Wei had already left the Rowling Plains by the time of her return and moved to the capital For this reason, she had coal perally
This woman was once an adventurer and a party leader, so she of course had the brain to h, Rolynn thought it wouldn’t be hard to get hold of the per fa to the capital, why not just bring the first shi+pment directly to the capital and make a small fortune in the process?!
The only probleal without the per officials in the checkpoints, RolynnPlains – This fur trader is the one that supported Du Wei in his first venture – and had hioods This way, both parties can cut down on costs and help hide the elicit goods on the surface The only thing out of her expectation was that the fur trader went beyond his agree any of the clearance points on their journey
As the two beauties finally got off the shi+p, the clearance matter was already settled by the people of the fur trader The only worrisoinally pirates, where in the world would these thugs ever get the chance to see such a bustling scene? Although the tohere Enke port is located is still 30a the sailors to itch with restlessness
It’s already been a while since she led this bunch of hooligans out in sea, so she naturally had a good understanding of these pirates Usually under strict ement by her, Rolynn still understood the i thethe i over the shi+p’s side, Rolynn couldn’t stop herself fro out her orders from a distance, she instructed her subordinates to disembark in batches and not to stir up any trouble
Upon hearing the graceful words of their leader, the eyes of this vulgar pirate creere brirab their wallets, those not on duty only spent aoverboard without any intent to hide their eagerness for the brothel! As for those stuck behind to work, they were bri with envy as they watched their peers disappear into the crowded streets…
“Hu the pirates act like a bunch of predators, Joanna is obviously displeased because she knew very hat they were intending to do in town If not for the long period of tiar bunch, she would have already suroup In a angry whisper, she muttered to herself: “What a bunch of dirtybeside Joanna, she was already used to it because of her adventuring days prior to beco Joanna, she so e is prepared”
“Pehhh!” A strange expression ees from Joanna’s face With disdain in her o o by yourself! I only came to the capital because I wanted to help you protect the shi+p Secondly, I also have business in the capital! He to that little jerk The promise I made to him, consider it done! From this point on, I do not owe him any favor! If meet him next time, I’ll be sure to lanced at Rolynn: “Rolynn, in the days we spent together, I noticed your talent inour tiood teacher, so leave withperson that cannot be matched by many in this world, so why should you follow that little jerk? I’ll ask my teacher to take you as his disciple…”
Before she can even finish her words, Joanna already saw the sh, she continued: “Very well then, I know you’re going to refuse ain in the future!”
Having said that, Joanna gave her a deep look before speaking in a whisper: “Although I have a sister, but she and I have never been on good terry If only I had a sister like you, then the situation would have been really good”
Giving a big hug to Rolynn, Joanna bid her farewell As athose around her Without caring for the eyes of the crowd nearby, Joanna flew into the sky aand headed towards the general direction of the capital Like a passing breeze, the shape of her body disappeared into the horizon
In this one move, the crowd below started to cry out in surprise On the Roland continent, Mages are revered like treasures To see one flying up into the sky and disappearing far into the horizon, the croould of course be shocked Frowning, Rolynn looked up at the sky where Joanna disappeared and sighed Then turning to face the sailorsobard of the shi+p still, she yelled: “Why you are idling there! Haven’t you seen Miss Joanna use ic before? Get to work!”
Then Rolynn spent anotherwith the subordinates of the fur trader From what she can tell, the fur trader intends to latch onto this big tree known as Du Wei Her idea was confirmed when she found out from their chat that one of the people sent by the fur trader was in fact his brother
Around 40 years old, thistheir journey in the canal, this person was always one step ahead of her and prepared everything in advance Take the Enke port for example: Not only did he resolve the tax official’s inspection, Herbon even rented a warehouse to store the elicit goods away nearby (Because of the large ah the port cities near the capital, cheap warehouses have popped up everywhere inside the town) After arranging the needed oods, the only left to do now for Rolynn is find a carriage willing to take her to the capital
