Pirates: New Creator

Chapter 137 We work to pay off debts

The three of Kevin soon arrived at Bellemere's orange grove at the end of the village. As soon as a few people entered the gate of the orange garden, a figure flashed. A little lolita with blue hair who looked to be about the same age as Nami blocked the way of the three of them and asked with a vigilant look: "Nami, what are you doing?" What are you doing? Why are you bringing a stranger home? Don't you know that strangers are not welcome in the orange groves of Bellemere?" The little girl blocking the way was Nami's sister Nokigao.

Little Nami heard Noqigao's question and quickly explained: "Noqigao, the two eldest brothers are adventurers from outside and plan to taste our oranges. If they are delicious, they will buy a lot of them. of."

Nokigao looked at Nami and the three of them with disbelief, and asked: "Really? Nami, you are not lying again, are you?" Obviously, Nokigao did not believe what Nami said. .

Kevin stood up at this time and said to Noqigao: "This little sister, what little sister Nami said is true. Crowe and I are adventurers, and we came to your village this time just to replenish food. I bought some fruits by the way. I heard from little sister Nami that there are oranges for sale here, so I came here. It would be best if there are oranges. You know, you can easily get scurvy after sailing on the sea for a long time. Oranges are A good medicine for treating scurvy! So, if your oranges are really delicious, I don’t mind stocking up on them."

Although Nuo Qigao didn't know whether what Kevin said was true, looking at Kevin's serious expression, it didn't look like he was lying, so he said, "If that's the case, then I still welcome you, please come in." Let's go!" As he said that, Noqigao let Kevin and others into the house.

Kevin and Crowe followed little Nokigao into the house, while little Nami took the opportunity to leave and went to the orchard behind the house. Noki pulled out two chairs and asked Kevin and Crowe to sit down. Then he poured a glass of water for each of them, and then said to Kevin and the other two: "Please wait a moment, Nami should go to the orchard." It’s time to pick oranges here. Don’t worry, our oranges are very delicious!”

Kevin smiled at Nokigao and said, "Let's get to know each other again. My name is Kevin, and my friend with glasses is called Crowe. The two of us are adventurers affiliated with Adventurers."

Nuo Qigao also said generously: "My name is Nuo Qi Gao, and the little girl who just brought you here is called Nami, and she is my sister. I still want to ask now, are you really here to buy oranges? ?”

Kevin nodded and said: "We really don't need to lie to you about buying oranges. If your oranges are as delicious as your sister said, I wouldn't mind reaching a long-term cooperation with you and arriving regularly. You buy oranges here.”

Noqigao was very happy after hearing Kevin's words, and said confidently: "Don't worry, you two, I will definitely make you very satisfied. I will go to the orchard to see that girl Nami. She is always careless in doing things." After saying that, Nokigao stood up and left the house, going to the orchard to find Nami.

Only then did Kevin and Crowe have time to carefully look at the room they were in.

To be honest, the furnishings of this room are really too simple. Apart from a simple wooden table, chairs, and wooden bed, there is really nothing else. There was also a photo frame on the table. The woman in the photo frame had red hair and was wearing a navy soldier's uniform. Kevin knew that this should be Belle Merle, the adoptive mother of Nami and Nokigao.

Crowe whispered to Kevin: "Boss, I didn't expect that the mistress of this family is actually a navy. She can't be a soldier under you, right?"

Kevin shook his head and said: "I have never seen this person, so she should not be one of my soldiers."

At this time, the door of the room was opened again, and Nuo Qigao and Nami walked in each carrying a plate. The plate was filled with oranges of different sizes. The two little girls placed the plate on the table. It looked like A somewhat disgraced Nami smiled and said to Kevin and Crowe: "Big brothers, you can try our oranges now to see if they are as delicious as I said. You know I am Nami." Beauty never lies."

After listening to Nami's words, Kevin silently complained in his heart: You girl has a delicate heart with seven orifices. How can you believe what you say? Don't you think you are right? If I believe you easily, I will definitely be deceived by you. But Kevin just thought about this in his heart and didn't say it out loud.

Kevin reached out and picked up an orange from the plate, peeled off the skin and took a bite. He couldn't help but nodded, and said to Crowe at the same time: "Cloe, don't be stunned, try their oranges too, Nami." Little sister really didn’t lie, these oranges are really delicious.”

After hearing what Kevin said, Nami said proudly: "How about it, big brother, I didn't lie to you! Our oranges are really delicious!"

"By the way, little sister Nami, where are the adults in your family? It's better to talk about business among adults." Kevin said to sister Nami after finishing the orange in his hand.

Hearing Kevin mention the adults in the family, little Nami and little Nokigao both lowered their heads in depression. After a while, Nuo Qigao raised his head and said in a tearful tone: "There are only two of us at home now. Our mother was killed by pirates in the town."

Kevin said with an apology on his face: "I'm sorry for mentioning your sadness. I'm really sorry. Is your mother the woman in the photo on the table?" As he said that, Kevin pointed at the table. asked the photo of Bellemare wearing a navy uniform. In fact, Kevin knew very well how Bellemere died, but in order to deal with the evil dragon in the next step, Kevin had to deliberately mention the sad story of Sister Nami.

Nozhigao nodded and said: "Yes, Bellemare used to be a navy, but then she retired."

Kevin frowned and asked again: "Even if you are retired soldiers of the Navy, if you are assassinated by pirates, you can contact the Navy, and the Navy will stand up for these retired soldiers. Why don't you contact the Navy?"

After hearing this, Nami showed a disdainful smile, and then said with a mocking tone: "The Navy is really untrustworthy! The pirates in the town have always been in contact with the Navy, and every time those pirates A portion of the money stolen by thieves will be distributed to the navy. That’s why pirates can be so rampant in towns. This is all because the navy acts as a protective umbrella for pirates. "

Crowe glanced at Kevin secretly and found that Kevin's face looked ugly now. Although Kevin had known about such a plot before, but now hearing the victim say it himself, he still felt a surge of anger in his heart. Kevin frowned and said, "Can you carefully follow what happened?" Shall I tell you something? I still know some people in the Navy Headquarters, and I can help you report the problem. The Navy Inspectorate in the Navy Headquarters will never tolerate those navies that act as an umbrella for pirates."

After hearing this, Nuo Qigao asked excitedly: "Is what you said true?"

Kevin nodded and said, "It's true. I don't like to joke casually."

Nokigao thought for a moment and said: "Then I hope you can tell the righteous navy about this matter. It happened about half a year ago. A group of pirates came to our village, headed by a fishman named The evil dragon, his men are all fishmen, and they are so powerful that it makes people feel frightened. As soon as they came to Cocosia Village, they required every household in the village to pay a protection fee to buy their lives. Adults need to pay 100,000 Beli, children need to pay 50,000 beri. However, our family was really poor at the time, so we couldn't pay as many berri as required. In order to protect us, Bellemere counted her protection fee towards us. On her body, and because she had no money to pay the protection fee, she was..."

Speaking of this, Nuo Qigao's tears couldn't stop flowing down, and his voice began to choke. Nami on the side gritted her teeth and continued: "Bellemere was killed by that bastard evil dragon to protect me and Nokigao. I will never forget the scene that day!"

After listening to the stories of sisters Nokigao and Nami, even Crowe, a pirate who once dominated the East China Sea, couldn't help but feel very angry. Crowe said in a gloomy voice: "Asshole fishmen, those fishmen are really bastards. Attacking these defenseless women and children, no wonder so many people hate fish-men! If I meet them, I will definitely teach them a lesson."

After hearing what Crowe said, Nokigao quickly wiped his tears and said nervously to Crowe: "Sir, you must be careful. Don't let those fishmen hear these words, otherwise they will kill you. of!"

At this time, Kevin on the side said: "It's just a group of fishmen, no big deal. But your oranges are really delicious, so I plan to order a thousand catties of oranges from you. I don't know how much it will cost?" "

Nami spoke first before Nokigao could say anything: "Our oranges are sold for 50 berries per catty, so if you want to buy 1,000 jins of oranges, you have to pay us 50,000 berries."

"Fifty thousand berries? It's not expensive. Then please prepare a thousand catties of oranges for us first!" Kevin said with a smile, "But we don't have that many berries with us now. I only have 40,000 berries here." Berry. How about this, how about we work to pay off the debt?"

"Working to pay off debts?" Nami and Nokigao both looked at Kevin with puzzled faces. Even Crowe was confused by Kevin's words and didn't understand what his boss meant.
