The opening kaleidoscope writing wheel eye: the war on the top

Chapter 415 Arrangement of goods
That is to say, Qiao's physical fitness is good. He didn't respond when he went ashore yesterday, and he didn't have any bad symptoms until after resting for a night.

Harvey prescribed a few medicines for Joe, saying that after taking it, there would be a relief effect, but if he wanted to recover completely, he had to either change the environment or wait for a while.

Wait for the body to adjust and adapt, but it will be long or short, not sure.

Jessica happened to find a reason to switch with Joe. Hanan was not too relieved. Brothers Sam and Butch were good at fighting and taking care of others. Fortunately, Carmen was still there.

As a chef, Carmen is also a careful girl. Although she has a hot temper, she is very sensible and understands the general situation, so she agreed without a second word.

Last night, Hicks took care of everything, so that Hanan and the others didn't have to prepare travel supplies, he would prepare them all.

Since Krabaatl was nicknamed the Butler, he would not leave everything to others, let alone let others control his lifeline, so he took Charlie and Harvey to the market for emergency purchasing.

At about ten o'clock, Yu Nan and others were waiting at the entrance of 'SpiceBean'. After a while, Hicks also came. He also went out early in the morning to arrange goods at the material warehouse.

When Hicks saw Hanan, he said affectionately: "Brother Hanan, why did you come out so early? I don't want to rest for a while."

Seeing that everyone had packages and everyone was carrying a wooden barrel, he had a look of incomprehensibility in his eyes, but he smiled and said, "I have prepared all the water and food, so why bother preparing them again?"

Krabaatar took over, "Boss Hicks doesn't know something. We people not only eat a lot, but also drink water. If we don't carry more with us, we won't feel at ease."

As he spoke, he also patted the small wooden barrel on his body, which clanged loudly, and it was full of fresh water.

Hicks exchanged some pleasantries and took everyone to the east gate of Nahana. On the way, Yu Nan asked why he didn't see the goods. Hicks explained that he had packed them and was waiting outside the city.

Sure enough, there was a large group of people waiting by a small sand dune to the south of the east gate, and a commotion could be heard from a long distance away.

Hanan roughly counted about 500 people, all of whom were middle-aged men. Except for a few people who were similar to accountants and finances, the rest were all faintly sturdy, and everyone was equipped with weapons.

There were also dozens of tall horses and groups of camels, at least eight or nine hundred of them. The sand at the feet of each camel was filled with sacks of different sizes.

It was the first time for the 'Prophet' people to see such a large-scale camel caravan. They were very curious and ran over to have a look.

Hanan saw that the material of these sacks was quite different from what he usually saw, so he looked at them carefully.

Seeing this, Hicks came over and explained with a smile: "These bags are all used for loading goods. They are made of special thick hemp rope, with a small bottom and a big opening. Camels don’t slip.”

Hanan opened his hands and gestured casually, "Put it directly on the camel's back?"

Hicks laughed and said: "There are certain things to do when carrying goods. After the bags are filled with goods, they can be placed on the camel's back, but two of them must be placed, and they must be crisscrossed and placed diagonally on the hump."

Yu Nan looked confused, "I didn't expect it to be so complicated?"

"Haha, that's not all. There is also a specific way to put the bag together. The small end of the bag is in the front and the big end is in the back. This is because the camel's hind limbs are more powerful than the forelimbs. This way, the camel can bear more weight."

Hanan nodded to show that his knowledge has increased, and he secretly made a note in his heart that in Alabasta, these little knowledge may be useful at any time.

Following Hicks' order, the guards began to be busy, loading the cargo, checking the inspection, and after a while, they uttered the slogan "thi, thi", the camel seemed to understand it, and knelt down on its front legs first. , Squat down on the hind legs again, and lie down on the spot.

Several partners returned to Hanan's side, and they were all surprised when they saw this scene.

Jessica's big eyes widened, "Oh, it's so amazing, I want to learn it too!" Then she walked towards a big camel on the left.

"Thi, thi..." A similar slogan sounded, and the camels stood up obediently again.

Just as Jessica approached, the camel had just stood up. The rope used to fix the camel's back might not be fastened properly, and the two pockets fell off.

Jessica helped to pick it up. As soon as she touched it, she felt that something was wrong. After groping a few times, her expression changed. It seemed to be a weapon like a musket. Just as she was about to confirm it, a man with a scarred face suddenly turned to her. He yelled: "Put it down, who told you to move!"

Jessica looked back angrily, "Why are you so fierce? Do you still want to eat people?" Because she was going to the desert, Jessica was wearing a long-sleeved dress today and her face was covered with a windproof gauze scarf.

Dao Scar saw that she was a woman, but he didn't have the slightest intention of giving in. He was still cursing, and several other men walked over with fierce faces.

Hanan glanced coldly at them. They were obviously not ordinary people. Not only were they tall and strong, but they also had hot and cold weapons, and they also had a faint murderous look.

Seeing this scene, Hicks came over quickly and scolded those men, so that the men were honest.

Hicks was worried about Hanan's misunderstanding, and explained to him: "Now there are troops everywhere, and it is not safe to go out without guards. The place we are going to is a sensitive area."

Hanan nodded to express his understanding, and said to him: "Boss doesn't need to explain, we are more at ease with strong military force as guarantee, but it seems that your goods are very unusual in such a big battle."

"There is a lack of everything in Katriya now, as long as you can transport things over there, you will definitely make a profit,"

Hicks laughed, but did not say what the cargo was. He changed the subject and said: "By the way, Brother Yu Nan, you must listen to me when you go out this time. In addition to various dangerous creatures in the desert, there are also 'Desert Sea There are thieves and desert robbers, and if you are not careful, you will be kidnapped by them, and you will lose both your life and property."

"Pirates? Robbers?" Hanan asked strangely, "What do you mean?"

"They are all criminal gangs unique to the Kingdom of Alabasta. In fact, they all make a living by robbing. The 'Sand Bandits' have been around since ancient times and are similar to horse thieves. The 'Sand Bandits' have emerged in recent years. Their style is similar to pirates, but It’s different, it only appears in the desert and specializes in robbing caravans and travelers.”

"Understood, it's a robber!"

A picture immediately appeared in Hanan's mind, countless thugs riding horses and camels galloping and fighting in the desert, just like the scuffle scene in a movie in another life.
