Chapter 439: Capital of the Kingdom of Goa

在这个世界贝利分为1、5、10、50、100、500的币种。

Notes of five hundred or less all look like coins.

For notes above 1000 yuan, there are denominations of 5000, , etc.

An ordinary knife can be bought at a weapon store in a town for at least 3 Beli, and in the future it will be around 5 Beli.

The price of a gun is more than 10 yuan, and it will double due to inflation in the future.

An ordinary ship in the Seven Water City costs at least 100 million Beli in the current era, and a second-hand ship costs at least 50 million Beli.

Compared with ordinary small fish, you can buy one for just a dozen Baileys, which is quite cheap.

Only large fish, well-known species, are very valuable.

In his previous life, Arthur hardly ever used money to buy things after going to sea. As a pirate, he just robbed and killed, so he didn't care about these things at all.

In a sense, having enough money also makes one a very powerful celebrity who is admired by others.

"That auction is open to the public. There must be a lot of wealthy people in the Kingdom of Goa gathering there, right?" Arthur said as he wrung out the clothes and hung them on the clothesline to dry. "This kind of fish is just right. We can auction it there."

"You have quite a business sense?" As an ordinary girl, Leia was already shocked beyond words. Every move and action of Arthur that was beyond her common sense would open her up to new things.

"Humph." Arthur suddenly smiled evilly and looked at Leia, "Indeed, I also know the price of an adult female human slave, about 30 to 45 Baileys! And you are still a minor, and you look pretty good!

To put it in professional terms, you will become a rare commodity! Those nobles who like young girls as slaves will definitely pay a high price to snatch you away! "

Leia was suddenly startled when she heard this, and her expression froze.

"You're going to..." she stammered in fear, "sell me as a slave...?"

She suddenly felt extremely strange and frightened.

"Hmph." Arthur snorted at her, his face suddenly turned cold and he stared at her frightened expression.

"So you've been planning this from the beginning!" She suddenly realized, picked up the harpoon beside her and pointed it at Arthur, "I was wondering why you deliberately teased me in the tavern! It turns out you had a purpose!"

"Oh, my God." Arthur was speechless and rolled his eyes. "If you are so weak, think about why I sold my pillow? As a man, why should I give such a comfortable and soft thing to other men or old men?

There's no hope... You should work on your character and loyalty in the future! If you stay by my side like this, others will incite you to betray me with just a few words!"

After that, Arthur ignored her.

It's normal for her to be so scared when someone suddenly said they were going to sell her.

Seeing Arthur catch a huge fish, Cooper swooped down from the air into the sea and grabbed a fish of similar size and threw it on the deck.

"Cooper!" (Me too, Arthur!)

"A peaceful daily routine?" Arthur smiled and thought, "Not bad... At least it's much better than having a cold face and being wary of everyone every day."

One day later, November 1480, 11.

At noon, the sun was high in the sky.

The small boat driven by Arthur approached the port of the capital of the Kingdom of Goa at a very slow speed.

There are more than ten ropes at the stern, tied with various large fish over 8 meters in size.

"You really won't sell me out?" Leia was still in shock, still worried about what Arthur said to her yesterday.

Arthur looked at Leia and knew that his joke was a bit too much. After all, she was just an ordinary girl in the village, and it was normal for her to be scared.

As the ship was about to dock, Arthur comforted her, "As my servant, no one can take you away from me unless I abandon you. You are my property, do you understand?"

After saying this, Arthur felt very awkward...

I originally wanted to say something gentle to comfort her, but before I knew it I ended up saying these rather overbearing words.

His experiences and achievements before his rebirth still influence his way of thinking.

"Really?" Leia felt inexplicably better after hearing these words.

"Stop it." Arthur responded impatiently, "The ship is about to dock, we have to get down to business."

The bustling capital port is getting closer and closer!

After hearing Arthur's words, Leia stopped thinking about it and her eyes were filled with the bustling city with people coming and going.

"It is known as the most beautiful country in the East China Sea and the capital of the Kingdom of Goa." The port alone was enough to amaze her.

A few minutes later, the ship Arthur was on approached a rudder in the harbor.

The port staff of the capital of the Kingdom of Goa soon arrived and looked at Arthur and Leia on the ship.

"Is this a fishing boat?" The port staff looked at Leia and asked her, "What is your purpose here?"

Arthur pushed Leia's hips and asked her to step forward to answer the question.

"Uh... hehe." She smiled awkwardly and stepped forward to reply, "Yes, we are villagers from Rapeseed Village. We are planning to catch some deep-sea fish... planning to..."

Seeing that she was stuttering and didn't know how to answer, Arthur handed her a latest newspaper with the word "Auction" circled in large letters.

After seeing the newspaper, she suddenly realized what was going on and replied, "Take these deep-sea fish to the auction and sell them!"

The staff member thought it was good, took the record documents and boarded the boat to check, and said in surprise, "No fish found."

"It's in the back." Leia led him to the stern and pointed under the stern.

The staff member looked closely and his pupils trembled violently.

The huge deep-sea bluefin tuna appeared in his sight.

"I'll register it for you right away!" His attitude suddenly changed, and he picked up the pen in his hand and began to record, "1...17 super-large bluefin tuna! Plus the boat parking fee of 1000 Baileys. Do you need to wait until the auction is over to deduct it from the account, or do you want to pay it on the spot?"

"Pay on the spot," Arthur replied immediately, patting Leia's butt again.

Arriving in an overseas city for the first time, she was clumsy and quickly took out a thousand-dollar bill from her pocket and handed it to the staff.

"Please fill in your name here." The staff member who took the money replied with a professional smile, "We will send someone to carry your auction goods to the Good Items Auction. Please rest assured that the Good Items Auction will absolutely ensure the safe delivery of your precious goods."

"Thank you." Leia thanked him quickly, looking very honest and polite.

"Oh..." Arthur filled in the name and walked towards the bustling city with Cooper speechlessly, "Oh my God, she is like a country bumpkin entering the city."

"Cooper?" (Arthur, are bumpkins delicious?) Cooper didn't understand and asked curiously.

Arthur replied, "It's not tasty. There's dirt in the filling and it makes you stutter when you eat it."

The Good Items Auction is the most authoritative auction in the Kingdom of Goa, and every move is related to the country's reputation.

So he is not worried about being hacked like in the black market.

"The auction will start at noon three days later, so please be sure to be there!" When the staff saw Leia and Arthur walking away, they shouted a reminder from afar.

"Wait for me, Arthur! Where are you going?"

Leia caught up with Arthur in an unfamiliar place and followed closely behind him.

"The windmill village behind the mountain." Arthur replied casually, "That guy should be only 13 years old now? Hasn't he followed Garp to join the army yet?"
