Chapter 220
In the evening, in a jewelry store in Mermaid Bay, Alfred's huge body was lying on the counter, staring at the jewelry inside in a daze.
Ginny looked at this guy standing there in a daze with a dull look, and couldn't help but pat his thigh.
"Hey, Brother Alfred!"
"What are you doing? I can hear you."
Alfred lowered his head and looked at Ginny in confusion.
"I heard from those guys that you are in love with a mermaid who is only 1.5 meters tall? With the size of the two of you, you really can do it!"
"There is a little trick in Life Return. As long as you can use it skillfully, it is not a problem to reduce my current size by several times."
"Huh? Life Return has this effect?"
"Yeah, didn't Kaido teach you in class before?"
"Uh... this... I really don't know..."
The two were talking there as if no one was there, while the clerk on the other side was cautious and looked at them without daring to breathe.
I was afraid that these two guys would go crazy and kill people and rob the goods in the next second.
"How much is this necklace?"
Alfred pointed to a necklace made of colorful pearls on the counter and asked.
"About 16 million Baileys..." A shopkeeper who looked like a sponge replied tremblingly.
"So expensive?"
As soon as Alfred finished speaking, the owner of the sponge shop suddenly showed a strong panic in his eyes, and he almost cried out of fear.
"Since today is the opening celebration of our store... well, the ninth anniversary, and you are the 99th customer in our store, I can help you get a discount. The price after the discount, uh... 100,000 Baileys will be enough!"
Alfred looked at the shopkeeper in front of him speechlessly, who almost gave him the necklace for free, and the depressed look on his face was clearly visible.
Do I look like a bully?
If this reputation gets to Natasha's ears, how can I survive in the future?
At this moment, a guard from the Dragon Palace came over cautiously, approached Alfred, and said respectfully:
"Mr. Alfred, King Neptune sincerely invites you to Dragon Palace. We have prepared a banquet and..."
Without waiting for the guard to finish, Alfred waved his hand and said, "I won't bother King Neptune. I have something important to do now. Please tell him that I will definitely meet him next time."
Whether it is escorting the historical text or recruiting qualified coated shipwrights, this is a very urgent matter. Alfred did not bring many people this time, so it is most important to hurry back.
After saying that, Alfred took another look at the colorful pearl necklace, and finally shook his head and turned to leave the jewelry store.
He wanted to buy it back and give it to Natasha, but the price was indeed a bit too expensive.
Since he couldn't afford it and couldn't rob it, it would be better to turn a blind eye and go back to save more money before coming back.
Coral Hill Pier.
The Orca docked here has been re-coated. The coating technology of Fishman Island is really amazing. Many people rely on this craft to support their families.
The Beasts Pirates have also done a very good job in recruiting coating craftsmen. With Alfred's "celebrity signboard", the coating craftsmen have fewer concerns.
After boarding the Orca, Alfred motioned the pirates who went out to recruit people to come over, and then asked: "How is the recruitment work on Fishman Street? How many people are willing to join our pirate group?"
"There are quite a lot of people, but there are not many good seedlings among them. Basically, they are ordinary villains who can't be on the stage. So according to your screening criteria, we finally recruited more than 50 people."
"I feel that the security level of the entire Fishman Island has dropped a lot compared to before. There are actually no good talents here? Forget it, forget it, fifty or so is fifty, and I will slowly look for it next time I come."
And at this time, several more pirates came up.
"Brother Alfred, I heard you bought a gift for your sister-in-law. Where is the gift? Take it out for everyone to see!"
The speaker was an old man in the third squad. He had witnessed the entire process of Alfred's love affair with his own eyes. He was the leader of the first CP.
"Don't mention it. This incident made me feel like a robber..."
There was still a lot of time before the voyage, and Alfred did not hesitate to tell the pirates around him about the previous events.
After listening to this, the pirates laughed, and one of them who was more courageous said directly:
"Alfred"Brother, this shouldn't be considered robbery, right? Robbery is a no-cost business. You still need to pay 100,000 Baileys... If it were me, I wouldn't give you 100,000 Baileys. I'd be lucky to give you 10 Baileys!"
"So you're still a single dog!"
As everyone was mocking each other, Ginny also came to the 'Orca'.
She came to say goodbye.
The 'Orca' will return to the New World by the same route, and Ginny will take a pre-arranged merchant ship to the Sabaody Archipelago.
Then, she will transfer to a merchant ship to the South China Sea.
With Ginny's arrival, the sound of clinking glasses began to be heard on the Orca.
Pirates always say goodbye at a banquet. Knowing that Ginny would go to the South China Sea, Alfred had already prepared a small farewell banquet.
Just as the banquet was gradually coming to an end, a pirate brother in charge of vigilance came over with a guard from Ryugu Castle.
"Mr. Alfred, it's nice to see you again. "
Alfred looked over with drunken eyes. It was the Ryugu Castle guard he met in the jewelry store.
"Why? King Neptune must treat me to this drink today?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Our Majesty just wants to give you something."
The guard took out a small cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Alfred.
Alfred opened the cloth bag and then looked at the breathless guard.
"I wonder if you are satisfied with this gift?"
"Hahaha!"
Alfred put the cloth bag in his arms and laughed heartily.
"As expected of King Neptune... I accept his kindness. Next time I come to Fishman Island, I will definitely treat him to the best wine of our Beasts Pirates."
In the cloth bag, it was the colorful pearl necklace that Alfred had taken a fancy to before.
And a piece of cake from the Torant Sea that he gave to Natasha.
