Chapter 1006 The Country of Money
When Fangzheng and his party stepped onto the flat ground again, they almost felt as if they had escaped from another world.
"I thought I was going to die..."
Hu Tao shook her head. She basically didn't do anything along the way, but her whole body was almost paralyzed.
"To tell you the truth, I really thought about how to escape if I sink into the sea..."
Hearing Hu Tao's words, Fangzheng didn't say much. She just turned her head and silently glanced at the battered boat behind her.
Yes, riddled with holes.
Right now, the ship is almost no longer the same as it was when it set out. Above the waterline, it is full of tatters. Even below the waterline, it is nailed to death by various planks. Two masts are broken, and the stern is broken. A big hole was also blown out by the shell, so that when they first came here, the people at the dock thought it was a ghost ship!
"I didn't expect that I would encounter so many troubles when I went out to sea."
Even Kuang San, who is always calm and calm on weekdays, now has an unbelievable expression on his face.
"Storms, pirates, maelstroms, seaspouts, groups of fish...what else have we not encountered?"
"Sea monster, we are lucky if we didn't encounter a sea monster."
Fangzheng is not sure if they are lucky now, and after this journey, Fangzheng's understanding of "good luck" has dropped very low.
"You said...how did she survive until now?"
Looking at Katie who was still in the dark by Hu Tao's side, Kurumi began to think about this issue seriously.
"I didn't say that, the ones we encountered at sea before are enough for her to die ten times."
"Just because we're here."
Fangzheng was not surprised, in fact, she knew exactly what was going on.
"You see, Katie has been unlucky several times along the way, but every time she escaped because of us, and because she has never succeeded, the accumulated 'bad luck' has become stronger and stronger..."
Having said that, Fangzheng stretched out his hand and made a pressing gesture.
"It's like a spring, the more we press it down, the stronger the rebound will be... Kuang San, you'd better stay by Katie's side during this time, I see what's next..."
However, Fangzheng hadn't finished speaking when he heard a "click". The next moment, the wooden plank that Katie was stepping on suddenly broke, and the little guy only had time to scream before falling down. Fortunately, the walnut next to him had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed Katie. Otherwise... who knows what would have happened.
The real version of the god of death is coming...
"Mr. Fangzheng, can I knock her out and pretend to be in my shadow?"
Kuang San silently watched Hu Tao pull Katie up, then silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and put forward his own suggestion. In Kuangsan's view, letting Katie walk alone on the street is too dangerous.
"decide as things go."
Fangzheng couldn't answer easily, so he could only say something casually and let Kuangsan decide for himself.
In the end, Kurumi didn't attack Katie, because she wasn't sure whether she would kill Katie directly. Logically speaking, Kuang San's actual combat experience is extremely rich, and it is impossible to make such a mistake. But I can't stand Katie's bad luck. According to Fang Zheng, it is not surprising that Katie is in a state where she chokes to death when she drinks water, eats, walks and falls to death. Throw Katie into Kurumi's shadow, and no one knows what will happen.
So Kuang San also gave up this idea and went to help Katie with the delivery of the goods.
Although the pirate's shells "coincidentally" hit the warehouse and destroyed most of the goods in the warehouse, but just in case, Katie's goods were stuffed into his shadow by Kuang San I went there, so I didn't suffer any loss, which is a blessing in misfortune.
And then, after going through the usual troubles of not being able to find the truck and not having the stamp and signature of the customs officer, etc., everyone finally left the pier and "successfully" entered the City of Silver.
Frankly speaking, the first impression left by the City of Silver was not good.
To say the least, this place is more like an enlarged version of those neon districts that are full of feasting and feasting. You can see flickering colorful lanterns everywhere, as well as various gates painted with gold leaf. Although the road here is spacious, people walking on the street are wearing clothes like nouveau riche, and many of them wear big gold bracelets on their hands, big gold chains on their necks, and big gold rings on their fingers. Dazzling golden light.
To use eight words to describe it is... the feasting and feasting, the drunkenness.
This is a world where status is measured entirely by wealth.
Smelling the pungent aroma in the air and hearing the noise around them, everyone frowned. This was not their favorite environment.
"Next, we only need to send these goods to the Chamber of Commerce, and the commission will be considered complete."
After loading the car, Katie also breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered to Fang Zheng, Hu Tao and others.
"thank you all………"
"You're welcome... Well, let's get the goods delivered first."
Hearing Katie's thanks, Fangzheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he still didn't say anything. With Katie's luck, being able to persist until now is considered the limit. He doesn't think that the next rain will pass. In contrast, there may be more troubles.
Facts have proved that Fang Zheng's guess is correct.
On the way from the pier to their destination, they first encountered a crazy carriage, which almost hit the van. And then the truck itself fell apart for some unknown reason. In desperation, Fangzheng had no choice but to let Kuangsan take all the goods into the shadow, and then waited until the destination...
"The steward has gone home."
Standing outside the gate, the flesh-faced bodyguard looked at Katie, Fang Zheng and the others with a look of disdain.
"We are temporarily not accepting goods these days!"
"Yes, but we have shipped all the goods, you should sign the bill..."
"I can't control this..."
Listening to the argument between Katie and the bodyguard, Fangzheng silently shook his head, then turned his head and winked at Kuangsan.
Mad three seconds to understand.
Five minutes later, the boss of the chamber of commerce manipulated by the "Broken Army Singer" obediently came down to sign the invoice and settled the rest of the payment.
Until then, this journey full of hardships and hardships finally came to an end for everyone.
"Thank you so much."
After getting the payment, Katie also breathed a sigh of relief. She handed over the agreed remuneration to Hu Tao while thanking in a low voice. And Walnut accepted the reward with a smile, and waved to Katie.
"It's nothing, it's just a little effort..."
"No, thank you very much!"
But this time, before Hu Tao finished speaking, she was interrupted by Katie. She stretched out her hand, held Hu Tao's hand tightly, and stared at her.
"Actually, this is not the first time. No matter what I do, it doesn't go well every time. I fail every time... Everyone... Everyone is unwilling to do things with me..."
Speaking of this, Katie lowered her head dejectedly, while Fangzheng, Hutao and Kuangsan looked at each other a few times, not knowing what to say.
To comfort her, "Actually, you're not so unlucky"... I feel like I can't say this without conscience.
Because it was really bad luck along the way.
If Fangzheng was still wondering why Katie didn’t even have half a guard by her side as the eldest lady of the chamber of commerce, now he understands the reason——Obviously, Katie’s guards may have been taken by the big lady a long time ago. The lady's bad luck was frightened.
Frankly speaking, if Fangzheng and Kuangsan didn't have the strength, I'm afraid they would have died along the way!
"Let's take you home, don't be so downcast, it's finally finished, you should be happy!"
If Fangzheng and Kuangsan were fighting against bad luck along the way, then Hu Tao was giving Katie psychological counseling along the way. Now she saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she hurriedly clapped her hands and changed the subject. Hearing what Walnut said, Katie raised her head and smiled.
"That's right, I managed to complete it successfully, I should show my father... I finally succeeded!"
After that, Katie rented a carriage and drove towards the Holy Silver Chamber of Commerce.
To everyone's surprise, when getting into the carriage, everyone was prepared for any troubles, but they didn't encounter any problems until the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Holy Silver Chamber of Commerce.
It's a smooth journey that makes people doubt life.
"My lord, my lord!!"
As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the chamber of commerce, before the carriage stopped, Katie happily jumped out of the carriage and ran into the chamber of commerce. Fangzheng and the others followed behind Katie and walked into the Holy Silver Chamber of Commerce.
The scale of the Holy Silver Chamber of Commerce is not small, it can even be said to be very large. At the moment, in front of the counter, there are also many merchants and counter staff who are settling accounts and discussing transactions. When Fangzheng and others walked into the chamber of commerce, they saw Katie trotting all the way to the counter, a tall and thin man with a serious face and a single-sided gold-rimmed glasses.
"Katie?"
Seeing Katie, the man in the single-sided gold-rimmed glasses frowned.
"Are you back? How is this business?"
"Yes, my lord father, I have finished this order of business, you see, the other party has already signed for the receipt!"
As she spoke, Katie happily took out the invoice from her arms and handed it over.
But what people didn't expect was that her father's face turned pale when he heard Katie's words.
"What? You finished it successfully?!"
Accompanied by these words, Fangzheng suddenly found that the originally lively hall suddenly became dead silent.
