MTL - The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars-Chapter 17 ask for news
17. Ask for news
While the engineering robot was renovating the spacecraft, Quinto and Truda chatted, they were old acquaintances.
"Speaking of which, where did Ferasi go? Why didn't he come with you?" Truda asked, "A few people over there look familiar."
He pointed to Cun Te, Tang Xiao and others.
"They're my new... er..." Quinto began to think about what to say. He can't say that Felasi was raised as a hostage on the Dawn planet by Tang Xiao's delicious food, right?
"Partner." Munter said later.
"Ah yes, partner!" Quinto quickly agreed.
"Okay, clean your **** for your own business. I've informed Jabba, and his men should be here soon," Truda said.
"Hey old man! How dare you trick me! I just got to Tatooine and I have to drink a glass of water!" Quinto complained.
Truda said with a sinister smile: "We all do things for Jabba, you should know this."
Sure enough, just as they were talking, a few people dressed as bounty hunters came outside, and as soon as they entered the door, they shouted, "Quento! Come out for me! Where's what Jabba wants?"
Quinto was so frightened that he looked at Tang Xiao with a pleading look, but he didn't get any response, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Okay, I'll... I'll go right away."
"You guys, unload the goods and load them up! Jabba wants these things!" Another Twi'lek mercenary roared at Tang Xiao, shaking a blaster rifle in his hand.
This blaster rifle looks like a military item. Compared with the cheap DL-18 blaster pistol in the hands of Quinto and his party, it is much more high-end. No wonder they are so embarrassed.
T-850 took a step forward to give this provocative guy some color. But Tang Xiao stopped him and said, "Okay, let's load the goods!"
Saying that, he was not too tired. He walked into the cargo hold of the spacecraft, carried a large box, and put it on a 'Bansa II' suspended cargo boat. Several bounty hunters looked at Tang Xiao and the others with their hands behind their backs. busy. Then one of them threw Quinto a handful of gold coins and walked away.
Quinto nodded and said loudly: "Hey! This is only 2000 Upi! Didn't you say 5000?!"
Upi Upi is the currency that circulates on Tatooine. Tatooine is located in the outer ring star region and is the sphere of influence of the Hutts. The credit point of the Galactic Republic has not been recognized. This unofficial currency is the real hard currency.
But those bounty hunters didn't stop, and one person turned back and sneered, "It's good to give you the money! Keep it, useless mufu cow milker, hahahaha."
Quinto's face changed several times, and when the cargo boat was far away, he raised his **** fiercely in that direction, "Born by a group of Bansa mothers!"
The villager was very free and easy. He walked over and hugged Quinto's shoulders and shook it and said, "It's alright, isn't this a lot of money? We'll just do some work at that time. We'll wait until our colony is built. Now, there'll be plenty of work to do, and you won't have to look at Jabba's face anymore."
"Jabba..." Quinto lowered his head when he mentioned the name.
"Let's go, find a place to have a drink, I'll treat you." Munter said.
"In the end, it's not my money, I'll take it." Quinto shook his head with a wry smile.
They entered the city of Mos Eisley all the way. This city has no plans at all, no roads are marked, and there are only scattered houses and shanties, just like an oversized slum.
There are all kinds of different alien races on the road, and all of them wear cloaks to protect them from the scorching sun. Some people were hawking strange goods, others were asking if they had jobs, or they were mercenaries leaning against the wall with weapons and waiting for business to come.
Generally, those mercenaries try their best to make a fierce expression and try to make themselves appear more powerful.
At this time, a robot with a cylindrical shape like a bamboo pole walked down the street carrying a few heads of Quarren people. Pedestrians on the road retreated one after another. The mercenaries with vicious appearances ran the fastest.
Some passersby were still whispering, "Look, those Quarren from the Iron Fish Gang! They hijacked Jabba's cargo ship a few days ago..."
Quinto also pulled away Tang Xiao, who was watching curiously, to make way. He whispered, "This is IG-41, one of Jabba's bounty hunters. Stay away from it, and it'll shoot whatever it thinks it does to stop the mission."
Tang Xiao didn't speak. He glanced at the robot, turned his head, and followed Quinto to a bar in Mos Eisley. There are a lot of fish and dragons here, all kinds of robots and aliens are mixed together, and they buy some low-quality alcoholic beverages with a little income from their hard work, and then vent their excess energy.
The Quarren who looked like squid, the Gamor who looked like a big wild boar, were similar to humans, but with two tentacles on their heads, Twi'leks of different skin colors... This place was like a rare zoo.
Munter was also very new to this place. As soon as he entered the bar, he asked Quinto to get some change and wandered around. He soon hooked up with a Twi'lek woman and went for a drink.
Tang Xiao went straight to the large oval bar in the middle of the bar, called the bartender, ordered a glass of wine and drank it one by one, and at the same time threw out a Upi Upi coin and said in a low voice, "I want to inquire about the sky. News from the Walker family. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
The bartender put away the coins calmly, wiped the dishes and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "They live in the port of Mos Esper, and they are slaves of a Toidarian garbage dealer, Water—this is He won the gamble from Gadura the Hutt, and it's been rumored for a long time."
Tang Xiao took out another coin and pushed it over, "I want to find them, do you have any suggestions?"
The bartender put away the coins again, put the plates neatly one by one, and said at the same time: "The port of Mos Esper is the territory of Gadura the Hutt, you know, Jabba and Gadura are the two Hutts. Human relationships... hehe. You're doing things for Jabba, and you know what's going to happen."
This place really is a mixed bag, and no one can believe it, Tang Xiao thought. As soon as he came to this planet, he was taken away by Jabba's people, and the people here knew the news so quickly.
Tang Xiao weighed the last Upi Upi coin in his hand. He was about to say something, but suddenly he felt a force pushing him aside. He frowned and was about to get angry. When he turned around, he saw only one The drunk man who was obviously drunk was lying on the bar next to him, snorting the pungent smell of alcohol and said, "Hey! What about you, little fanpi! How about you, do you want to cooperate with me to get some money?"
When he heard about the money, Tang Xiao made a gesture to stop the T-850 who was about to start, and asked, "Tell me, what can you do?"
"Hahahaha! Look at your tender skin, you must have money at home, right? Hiccup~~~! I kidnapped you, and then you ask your family for money to redeem, how about it? Hahaha~~~~ Hiccup~~~!" The drunk man laughed as he spoke, and a few people at the other table next to him, who should have been with him, also laughed in agreement.
