Pirate: Demon General

Chapter 144 Lafayette

"If you just follow in the footsteps of your predecessors, can't you create something of your own?"

Echizen Yuta raised his head and looked at Luo Lan. What flashed in his eyes was something called inspiration.

Luo Lan's words seemed to make him understand something, but it would take some time to truly comprehend it.

"Mr. Luo Lan, put it away. I've already memorized this Nara. It doesn't take three days for me to put the imitation here."

Echizen Yuta suddenly straightened his back, with a confident expression on his face.

Compared with the scruffy and unkempt man before, he seems to have completely changed his appearance now.

"In that case, Sauron, would you mind showing him your knife?"

Luo Lan smiled.

"Can you remember it just by looking at it? Then you are also very good."

Sauron naturally wouldn't mind, especially when Onitsu and the three generations went with Snow.

If close contact is required, he may still struggle a bit, especially the Hedaoyi character, which symbolizes Kuina's knife, and he will not let anyone touch it.

But if you just take a look, it's absolutely fine. After all, even if you don't show it to him, can't he sneak a look at it?

If you really want to be so entangled, do you want to fight?

"Thank you, Mr. Luo Lan. Now I have four more in my collection. I really don't know how to thank you. If you don't mind, I..."

Echizen Yuta carefully wrote down the details of the three famous swords in Zoro's hands, and looked at Luo Lan excitedly.

In the past few years, he has only added a few imitations of famous knives after two groups of customers came.

But today, four were added all of a sudden, how could it make him not excited.

But just when he was about to give Luo Lan his good sharp knife, a discordant voice suddenly sounded from outside the door.

"Okay Yuta, you useless bastard, you actually want to give away that famous sword to someone else for nothing while I'm not at home?"

Entering the room along with the voice, there was also a tall and thick woman, dressed very homely, not as hot and unrestrained as other women on this island.

The woman rushed into the room with an expression of anger on her face.

When he came to Echizen Yuta, he yelled and cursed and spit on Echizen Yuta's face.

Facing the woman's scolding, Echizen Yuta just blushed, not daring to refute at all.

Listening to the woman's scolding, Luo Lan seemed to understand the relationship between the two and why this woman was so angry.

Feelings This woman is Echizen Yuta's wife, who accompanied him to this El Salvador island.

When the famous knife museum was first established, women also supported him, thinking that this way they could earn money to support their families.

But gradually she discovered that not only did Echizen Yuta not collect the tickets for the only two groups of guests, but even their original deposits were secretly used by him to advertise.

After going back and forth, their savings were squandered, and their lives became worse and worse.

As for the women, in order to subsidize the family, they had to go out to pick up some tailoring jobs.

The reason why this woman came back early today is because a big buyer came to her and said that he wanted to go to the Famous Knife Museum to have a look. If possible, he might order a batch of imitations, because he himself is a collector.

Hearing this, the woman was naturally overjoyed, because these swords made by his man could not be used for fighting at all, but if they were only used for collection, they could definitely be faked.

With the idea of ​​finally being able to live a better life in the future, the woman enthusiastically took the man back home.

But as soon as she entered the yard, she heard Yuta's voice, and hearing the meaning, she actually thought of giving away the real famous sword to someone else for free.

How could she stand it?
Then the scene that Luo Lan saw now happened.

As for Echizen Yuta, he knew he was wrong, so he didn't dare to argue with women.

Because it is a fact that he can't make money, and it is also a fact that he has spent all his savings and needs his wife to go out to make money as a tailor.

"Hmph, I'll continue cleaning you up tonight. The guests are still waiting outside. Hurry up and put away your poor self-esteem and dreams. If this deal is successful, you can expand your museum however you want."

At the end of the woman's scolding, she seemed to have finally remembered the topic. She gave Echizen Yuta a blank look, and at the same time gave Luo Lan and the others an apologetic look, then turned and left the room.

Not long after, the woman came in with a strange man.

Black overalls, a floral shirt, and a top hat.

"It's him?"

Luo Lan looked at the man, frowned involuntarily, and then disappeared in a flash.

He can remember this guy very clearly. The crew member on Blackbeard's ship, called Lafayette, was said to be a sheriff before, but he was expelled from the country because of excessive violence, and then became a pirate.

Just why is this guy here?Is he the big client Echizen Yuta's wife mentioned?
If it's really him, Luo Lan doesn't really believe it. After all, this guy doesn't look like a good person just by looking at him, not to mention that he is still a violent person in his heart.

"Yuta, this is the big customer I told you about. He intends to take a look at your imitations of these famous knives. If he is interested in them, he will order a batch of imitations of famous knives for his collection. If you can If he sees other famous knives, he will continue to buy them in the future.”

The woman pointed to Lafayette and said.

It's just that Lafayette didn't pay attention to what the woman said. The moment he saw Luo Lan, he was obviously surprised.

But as a guy in the original book who never changed his face when facing people like the Warring States Crane, now he would naturally not show any surprise when facing the devil Luo Lan.

Anyway, their Blackbeard Pirates don't have any reputation yet, Luo Lan and the navy don't even know who he is, so he can wantonly hide his identity.

After slightly nodding at Luo Lan and the others, Lafayette looked at Echizen Yuta solemnly, and said, "Hello, Mr. Echizen, my name is Lafayette, and I am a collector. I read about your famous sword museum from the newspaper. , so I came here admiringly.”

I don't know why, although Lafayette showed a gentle appearance, but Echizen Yuta disliked it from the bottom of his heart. He always felt that this guy's attitude was a bit fake, as if he was just perfunctory himself.

But when he thought of the big business his wife mentioned, he had no choice but to suppress the unhappiness in his heart, forced a smile and said, "Mr. Lafayette, do you want to collect some imitations of famous knives?"

Lafayette nodded and said: "That's right, Mr. Echizen Yuta, because my father was a swordsman before his death, he was very eager to see those famous swords, but unfortunately, because of an accident, my father died unfortunately, so this dream It can only run aground."

"But as his son, I still want to fulfill his wish. I just saw the news about your famous knife museum in the newspaper, so I want to ask you to order a batch of imitations as my father's funeral objects."

"If you can accept it, I'm willing to pay 100 million Baileys for a copy."

"Is this price acceptable, Mr. Echizen?"

Lafayette didn't want to do this at first, but now that Luo Lan appeared here, he had to change his plan.

His previous idea was that after he found the famous knife museum, he planned to forcibly snatch the famous knife away. After all, it was just a down-and-out boss and his wife who died. On this island, there is no way to attract the attention of other people.

But Luo Lan's appearance broke his plan.

Let's not talk about whether Luo Lan is his opponent, but if a Rear Admiral who is about to take office dies here, the Navy Headquarters will definitely investigate in detail, and it would be bad if it ruined the captain's plan.

But it's not bad now. Why do I have to use violence to solve things that can be solved with money?
This is not necessary!
Anyway, as long as they can get a famous knife, what is a little money? It's just a reward for a few wanted criminals. Isn't this a simple matter for them?
