The Pirate King of the East China Sea

Chapter 42 Banknote Ability

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Xi Ge also pretended to be puzzled and looked at Jian.

Ajian shook his head and smiled helplessly, and his attitude towards Xi Ge was obviously better: "Mr. Xi Ge, if you don't mind, you can go and have a look. Nami is not lying, she knows where there are oranges."

In a word, Nami and Ajian's attitude towards him changed. This is the power of the milk bottle fruit to see through people's hearts.

"Captain, don't you hate oranges the most?" Tom asked suspiciously.

Sigo told him about his preferences before, and Tom obviously remembered that Sigo said he didn't like oranges.

"Now I like it, you control me."

Under the leadership of Nami, they soon came to the orange orchard near her home.

"Look, uncle, I didn't lie to you." Nami said happily, stretching her arms.

That way, it seems that he wants to embrace the whole orange grove.

Xi Ge stepped forward, stretched out his hand to pick an orange and tasted it, with a satisfied expression on his face: "Well, it's not bad, the one thousand Bailey's guide fee is yours."

"Yeah~" Little Nami jumped up happily.

Nami loves money like her life, one is because she agreed with Aaron to buy the entire Coco Yaxi Village with [-] million Baileys, but the main reason is because their family has been poor since childhood, and Berumel He died because he didn't have enough money.

Although a large orange orchard is planted.

But because it is close to the sea, there are frequent storms and tsunamis.

Thank goodness for the orange orchards not being damaged.

And even if there is a bumper harvest, the oranges can't be sold at a high price, and the merchant ships that occasionally come to do business will try to lower the price as much as possible.

Fruits like oranges cannot be stored for a long time at all, and the other party can only let the price be lowered.

As a result, Nami's family has always been poor, and they can only guarantee food and clothing.

Nami has been wearing Nuoqigao's leftover clothes since she was a child. She likes to read books and has no extra money to buy them.

But even so, no matter whether it is Nami or Nuo Qigao, they are all sincerely considering Berumel.

Before Aaron and others arrived, after arguing with Berumel for old clothes and leaving, Nami's first thought was: Without us, Berumel should be able to live better.

The children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and Nami is even more kind and distressing.

It is also for this reason that Nami and Ajian are so happy to hear Xi Ge say that they want to buy a lot of oranges.

"Hey! Uncle, don't just pick other people's oranges and eat them!" At this moment, a childish voice came, and then a girl with blue hair and wheat-colored skin ran over and pointed at Xi Ge.

Xi Ge was also speechless about the attribute of mocking himself.

This has already broken through the limit and become a devil fruit, so why is there still a passive effect?

With my current appearance, I am more like a local tyrant who wants to buy.

Why, do you have to light a cigarette with a large stack of banknotes in your hand at any time?

How did he know that his ability to ridicule is largely determined by his appearance and temperament.

Nami hurriedly stopped the aggressive Nuo Qigao and explained briefly to her.

Seeing that Xi Ge didn't show any signs of anger, Nami felt relieved.

This is likely to be a big deal, and it must not be messed up.

"Sir, you are here to buy oranges. Welcome, how many oranges do you want?" Nuo Qigao changed his appearance instantly, and said with a smile.

As expected of two sisters, they are really alike.

Xi Ge picked another orange and tossed it up and down in his hand while stretching out two fingers.

"Two hundred catties?" Nuo Qigao asked tentatively.

Sigo shook his head.

"Two thousand catties?" Nami became a little excited.

Sigo shook his head again.

Nuo Qigao was a little frustrated: "Could it be twenty catties?"

She had heard from Nami just now that the other party was going to put it on the boat to eat for herself, not reselling it.

How many oranges can a boatload of people eat?

Xi Ge grinned: "It's two, I ate one just now, add this, let's pay the bill."

The two little girls gritted their teeth in anger, pouted their mouths and wrinkled their noses and glared at Xi Ge.

Ah Jian messed up their hair: "You two, Mr. Xi Ge is teasing you."

Who would be so bored after walking such a long distance and only buying two oranges in the end.

Of course, Xi Ge was teasing them. He directly took out a thick wad of money: "I bought it for two years, so the money should be enough."

Nami took the money from Xi Ge, and it was so heavy that she was stunned.

"Two...Two years of oranges!"

Not to mention that Nami and Nuoqi are tall, even Ajian was stunned by Xi Ge's generosity.

Buying oranges for two years at a time, and with such a large amount of money, at least 20 Baileys are worth it.

It was embarrassing for Tom, his face hidden behind the mechanical helmet was full of helplessness.

He is so rich that he can even buy an orange regardless of the year, so how can he only pay one Bailey as a deposit for building a ship.

It was the first time that Xi Ge felt the power of money, and his ability to make money was really cool, especially when picking up girls... er, playing with little girls.

He lacks everything now, except money.

In the past few years, when opening trophies, the most paid out is money.

The money thrown in the system space has piled up into a hill, at least two to three hundred million Baileys.

In addition, he is usually used to whoring for nothing, Bailey or something is completely unimportant to him.

"Sir, you haven't eaten yet, why don't you stay and have a light meal together, and we'll send you the oranges to the boat when Berumel comes back later!" Nuo Qi's voice was full of excitement.

She was already looking forward to Bellumel's reaction when he saw the money.

This is a lot of money, and their lives can be improved a lot.

But at this moment, Ah Jian suddenly stopped everyone.

He looked at Xi Ge cautiously: "Mr. Xi Ge, I have no malicious intentions, but your behavior will make people suspicious, won't it?"

Ah Jian has been a police officer for so many years, so he naturally thought of more.

Xi Ge had expected it a long time ago, and said directly: "They are children adopted by Berumel, she is really as kind as before. I am from the Kingdom of Oikot, so you should know."

This kind of ambiguity depends entirely on the other party's own imagination.

However, the key word Xi Ge has already told the other party that the Kingdom of Oiket is the place where Nami and Nuo Qigao were born.

Bellumel also met the two of them after the battle there.

Xi Ge intends to guide the other party, and Bellumel has also been kind to him there, so he made a special trip to repay his kindness.

Sure enough, Ah Jian suddenly realized, first glanced at Nami who was excitedly holding the money, and then nodded thoughtfully: "I see."

Xi Ge didn't know what Ah Jian had imagined, but since he dispelled the other party's suspicion, it was enough.

As for Berumel, at least she has been in the navy for several years, and with her kind personality, she must have rescued many people.

After so many years, it is impossible to remember so clearly.

Just guide the other party to make up their minds and it will be done.
