Quick Travel: The host only wants to make money

Chapter 272: The Pirate’s Stronghold 3

Not only cannot we suppress the bandits, but when we suppress the bandits, we will have people notify them in advance and tell them to run away quickly.

Xia Mian admired this coquettish operation. Isn't this just taking the robbery out of the blue?

They drifted on the sea for a few more days and finally landed ashore. The people in the village were very friendly and came to greet Xia Mian when they came back.

"The little village master is back?"

Xia Mian smiled and greeted them, "Hey, I'm back."

"You've worked hard this time, little village leader. Go back and have a good rest. Such a beautiful girl is already tanned at sea."

"Yes, yes! If the old village leader sees it, he will definitely feel heartbroken."

People here express goodwill to Xia Mian, care about Xia Mian, and are very simple-minded.

It seems that this stockade is more like a small village. The people in the stockade all escaped from difficulties, and some of them were rescued by Xia Mian's father from the sea. After they got used to staying in the stockade, they didn't want to leave, so they just stayed in the stockade. Settling down.

Some people just married and had children in the village, and thus became the aborigines of the village.

Xia Mian returned to her room. If she followed what the system said, she would meet her mission target in half a month. It would not be easy to keep such a person on the island.

After all, if the Ning family is so rich, would they be willing to stay on such a poor island?

Who would let go of a good life and end up being turned into a bandit on such a small island?

Isn't this just a mental illness?

Xia Mian believed that if it were her, she wouldn't be able to do such a thing.

But I can’t say for sure, the scenery on their island is beautiful!The folk customs are so simple!

Aren’t these people on the island willing to stay on the island now?

The system showed that Xia Mian accepted her identity as a pirate very well. She was not picky about her mission identity like before, always thinking that her identity was not perfect or rich enough.

[Host, this time is good! 】

Xia Mian rolled her eyes. It wasn't that she didn't choose any more, but she realized that she didn't do the task for no reason, which meant that every task she did might have its own reason. If that was the case, what else could she do? Picked.

Now that it's here, just make peace with it. Since you can't struggle, you can just lie down.

Soon, the day came to the day mentioned by the system. Early that day, they came to teach Aestivation.

It was said that they saw a big ship coming from a distance, and there were quite a lot of things on it!It must be a big fish!

Xia Mian knew in her heart that this must be the Ning family's merchant ship that the system mentioned.

Xia Mian sat up from the bed, "Let's go, I'll go with you this time."

"Okay, after finishing this job, there will be enough food for the village for a long time."

Everyone's face was filled with happy smiles. Even the children on the island knew that they were going to get rich, and they were all very happy.

Xia Mian watched them push the boat out. Xia Mian took a homemade telescope and looked at the sea. Sure enough, she saw a big ship in the distance, no, there was more than one.

The big ship at the front was followed by several other ships, each of which was full.

Xia Mian ordered to move forward at full speed and wait only for a while to stop these ships.

On the Ning family's boat, the boatmen's faces were very solemn. This was their first time passing through this sea area. They had never walked through this sea area before. For safety reasons, they always avoided this place.

But this time is different. There are too many things on the ship. This batch of goods is to be transported to Lingnan by sea. The goods on the ship are valuable. If we take a detour, the delay on the road will be too long and the value of the goods will be greatly reduced.

In addition, I heard that the newly appointed prefect here has been well managed. Haidong is no longer as rampant as before. Many passing ships have not been robbed, and they have made a lot of money every time.

After their eldest son considered it, they decided to cross this sea. As long as they were careful, nothing would happen.

They also hired some guards at the dock. As long as they can pass safely this time, this batch of goods can make a lot of money for the Ning family.

Ning Yuesheng stood at the bow of the ship, looking into the distance. In order to transport the goods safely, he also went out to sea together this time. In the past, several uncles who often went to sea would pack the goods. This time It was different, he was worried.

However, this was an advantage for Xia Mian. Originally, Xia Mian and the others only robbed a batch of goods, but because Ning Yuesheng was on the ship, they robbed them along with the ship.

Their merchant ships were large. In order not to alert the Ning family, Xia Mian and the others had several small boats approaching the Ning family's ship quietly. With a few hooks, they firmly threw the hooks to the side of the Ning family's ship.

Several pirates touched it. When the sailors on the ship realized something was wrong, they were knocked unconscious on the deck by the pirates.

Soon, a piece of it fell. Xia Mian quickly climbed onto the Ning family's boat and whispered, "Just rob things, don't hurt people's lives."

"Yes."

They want to be good pirates. People come all the way to give them gold, but they can't kill people after taking their things. That's too bad.

To be a pirate, you have to have some conscience, but you can't be too conscientious. It's good enough to rob them and save their lives.

Even though they had been very careful to reduce the noise, there were fewer and fewer people on the boat, which still aroused the vigilance of other people on the boat.

A few guards sitting in the cabin with Ning Yuesheng first felt something was wrong, "Something's wrong, it seems like someone is on board."

Ning Yuesheng suddenly tensed up and was about to get up to check the goods, but was stopped by the guards.

"Eldest Young Master, you quickly go to the cabin to take shelter while we go take a look."

"Alright."

Ning Yuesheng doesn't know martial arts, so he can't be of much help on this ship. He will only be a hindrance. Instead of stepping forward to help, it is better to hide himself safely.

The cabin was opened, and several guards rushed out with their belongings. Little did they know that the pirates had already been prepared and were just waiting for them to come out.

Soon, the guards were subdued, tied up and thrown at the foot of the ship without a few blows from the pirates.

"Boss, we're all down now, we can go see the goods."

Xia Mian nodded. Unexpectedly, these people couldn't help but beat them. Seeing them bundled up like rice dumplings and thrown there, with panic on their faces, Xia Mian felt a little funny.

"Don't be afraid. We only rob money and won't hurt people's lives. Just be honest here. We will let you go after we have counted everything on the ship."

These words made those people feel relieved. They were just collecting money to do things. They wanted to earn some money to support their families by reducing the employment of the Ning family, but they had no intention of losing their lives here.
