Chapter 219: You may not make money even if you take advantage of others

 Due to the battle between Sanji Miao and Ace, Xie Wen and the others stayed at Twin Capes for one more night.

 The next morning, after kindly sponsoring a record pointer for the Spade Pirates, the Dudu Qianjin sailed away from Twin Capes and headed towards Cactus Island.

I don’t know whether it is to dissuade those newbies who come to the Grand Route without overestimating their capabilities, or to give them a sufficient warning. In this section of sea before leaving the Twin Capes to the first island, the intensity of climate change Far better than when Xie Wen and the others crossed halfway.

Basically, the weather changed after about an hour of progress. In just half a day, Xie Wen and the others experienced thunderstorms, breezes, snowfalls, scorching heat, hail, sunny days, thick fog, overcast clouds, cloudless weather, etc. or better. Or bad climate.

Moreover, in everyone's perception, the Dudu Qianjin has always been traveling in a straight line, and the sea currents below are relatively calm. There are no strange whirlpools or undercurrents that change their direction, but the record pointer still appears several times. Suddenly there was a 90-degree or 180-degree turn, and from time to time Xie Wen was led into a direction that was not a good climate at first glance.

But fortunately, Xie Wen and the others had already experienced similar situations when they crossed the Grand Line, so no matter how the wind and climate outside confused them, the Dudu Forward resolutely moved forward in the direction pointed by the record pointer.

 “Ahhhh! Keli’s snowman melted again, meow!”

Probably because the little puppets especially like to play in the snow, they have experienced several snowfalls along the way. However, not long after they build the snowman with Kelimiao, the climate will change rapidly, causing everyone to work hard. The snowman made out of pain will melt away soon...

 Despite this, Keli Miao still enjoys it, and Xie Wen and the others can only play with the little puppets.

Whiskey Hill was originally just an ordinary town located on Prickly Pear Island. It was similar to the towns on the other initial islands. The main industry of the town was to entertain pirates who had just entered the Grand Line and to provide supplies to merchant ships. .

 “Long live the warriors of the ocean!”

It's just that because Xie Wen and the others arrived earlier, it wasn't long before the Baroque Working Society occupied this place, so most of the tombstones were actually left by the original residents of the island, and only a small part were from the recently killed sea turtles. Tombstones for thieves.

With the enthusiastic cheers of this group of people, Xie Wen and the others docked the Dudu Qianjin on the shore.

They usually pretend to be ordinary residents of Whiskey Mountain, warmly entertain the passing pirates, wait until they relax their vigilance, then steal the treasures they carry, and capture or even kill these pirates in exchange for bounties.

Following the sea current and approaching Cactus Island, a group of members of the Baroque Working Society disguised as residents held various banners, held high bouquets and salutes, welcoming Xie Wen and his companions.

 Except for a few responsible persons, most of these people are not even the lowest-level "billion elders" and "million elders". They are just peripheral members randomly recruited by the Baroque Working Society.

As a criminal organization, they will certainly not only attack pirates. When some caravans and explorers pass by, they will also be targeted by this group of people, stealing or even snatching away the belongings they carry. Those huge Cactus is not a real plant, but a green stone called cactus rock. Those things that look like thorns from a distance are actually tombstones.

But as the Sand Crocodile Crocodile in the Shichibukai established the Baroque Works here, Whiskey Mountain has been occupied by his bounty hunters.

 “Welcome to the Grand Line!”

 “Welcome to Welcome City Whiskey Hill!”

But this time the situation was different, because Xie Wen had already seen the huge cactus appearing on the sea level in front, and their destination was about to arrive.

 “Brother Xie Wen, these guys have bad intentions, meow.”

“CP? It doesn’t seem to be the same, it’s probably just a group of people running a black shop.”

Even if Xie Wen doesn’t know the details of these people, they will still be completely exposed under the sight of Kelimiao and Haiyuan Miao.    "Take your time, just play with them."

Xie Wen raised a hand and COSed Mr. Huang before taking the cats off the boat.

 “Welcome, I am Jurod, the mayor of Whiskey Hill.”

The leader who came to talk to them was not the curly-haired uncle in Xie Wen's memory, but a completely unfamiliar face. After all, at this time, the Sand Crocodile's plan may have just begun, and the people of the Kingdom of Alabasta have not yet responded. Come here, naturally there won't be any of their undercover agents here.

“…This is a town famous for its brewing and music, and what it does best is entertaining outsiders.”

The fake mayor introduced Whiskey Mountain in a serious manner and offered to host a banquet for Xie Wen and the others.

But…

"We are all children here, and few of us can drink." Xie Wen pointed to the two kittens on his shoulders, and then pointed to his youthful face, "And I'm not an adult yet."

Jurod: “…”

what to do? There seems to be no corresponding plan in the language of organizing training!

The stuck fake mayor kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, and it took a long time before he turned around.

“Oh oh oh, it doesn’t matter, we can still treat you to dinner! By the way, you can also enjoy the music we are proud of!”

 “Then excuse me.”

Xie Wen didn't say anything weird to choke the other party. If they got angry and turned against each other, it would be a missed meal.

I have to say that this group of people put a lot of effort into disguise. Not to mention the food was above the standard, and the music they played was pretty good. Anyway, Xie Wen, a guy who doesn’t have much artistic talent, felt the same as those he had heard before traveling through time. It's almost like the game's soundtrack.

 The most important thing is that Huamei Miao, who has the highest taste, also expressed his approval of these music.

"Actually... at their level, if they run it well, they should make no less money than if they just eat it for free. After all, they have to spend a lot of money to hold a banquet."

 After eating the free meal, Hua Mei Miao commented like this.

ˆXie Wen: “…”

Xie Wen naturally believed Hua Mei Miao's evaluation. After all, Xiang Feihu was equally talented in business, and the fact that Whiskey Mountain could survive before the Baroque Works took over here proved the feasibility of serious business. .

As for pirates, the benefits are not necessarily as high as normal operations. Not to mention the cost of free entertainment, the group of people with high bounties cannot do it, and they dare not take action. The pirates with low bounties How many valuable things can you have on you?

The most important thing is that Xie Wen suddenly remembered that in the comics, when Luffy and the others arrived at Twins Cape, Princess Vivi and Mr. dressed as a prince didn’t know what day it was. The reason for attacking Rab was that there was a shortage of food in Whiskey Mountain and they needed to use it. Whale meat to supplement.

But when Luffy and others arrived at Cactus Island, the group was surprised to prepare enough food and drinks for the Straw Hat Pirates to eat and drink, and entertained them for free.

How should I say it? It’s really a brain-dead development that is very characteristic of Pirates.
