Chapter 50
The next morning, Rector got up early.
It was a torture to lie in bed because he couldn't sleep all the time. Moreover, Rector liked this job very much. When mixing drinks, he could feel the pleasure of being affirmed by others for the carefully prepared drinks.
"Miss Lu Jiu, don't we open the store in the morning?" Rector asked Lu Jiu during breakfast.
"Well, Darrow said that there are not many customers in the morning, and it will be very busy every night, so it is better to rest in the morning."
"Is that so? If there are not many customers, can I try it alone?" Rector said eagerly.
So, the Porter Tavern, which has never opened in the morning, opened as an exception because of a very motivated bartender.
The pub had been open for more than an hour, but there was no customer.
Today was a rest day for the competition, so there were few customers, but Rector didn't care and wiped the cups on the bar carefully.
At this moment, he figured it out. The question that troubled him last night had an answer. He wanted to regain his dream: to become an amazing winemaker and taste all the fine wines in the world.
"After that, it would be nice to open a pub." Rector thought with a smile.
It was ten o'clock.
The sun made the quilt warm, and Darrow knew it was time to get up. Although it was a rest day today, he still had things to do.
"It's so comfortable." Darrow said comfortably. He hadn't slept so soundly for a long time.
After eating the breakfast that Lu Jiu left for him, Darrow hurried out. Last night, Sonny came to the pub and said that the things on the list had been bought.
However, because there were too many things, Darrow told him to rent a warehouse first and have someone pull the things there directly. Now he was going to get them back.
When passing by the bar, Darrow said hello to Rector and went out directly.
"Mr. Darrow, doesn't he need to be in the store?" Looking at Darrow's leaving figure, Rector asked Lu Jiu in confusion.
"Well, Darrow also has his own things to do. Because of the tavern before, he couldn't leave. Mr. Rector really helped a lot." Lu Jiu said with a smile.
"Ah, are there guests?" Lu Jiu looked at a large group of people walking into the tavern and said immediately.
"Miss, please give me and my companions a bottle of wine." The leader walked to the bar and said to Lu Jiu.
At the same time, he took off the straw hat on his head and pressed it on the bar.
The sight was pulled back to Darrow.
After leaving the house, Darrow went directly to the warehouse door where he had agreed with Sonny. Darrow arrived earlier, and there were still fifteen minutes before the agreed time.
There was no way, he was anxious.
If these things were not in his hands for a day, his combat effectiveness would be very low. When he met an enemy like Owen, Darrow could only run, which was too passive.
Yesterday, the bounty hunter Hood also sounded a warning to Darrow. When he was on the road just now, Darrow had been paying attention to the situation on the road.
Sure enough, Darrow found that there were many more navy on the road, and the bounty list of Recte was also posted everywhere.
"Hoo! Boss!"
After a while, Sonny arrived panting, and there were a few people beside him, who seemed to be his followers.
"Who are these people?" Darrow asked.
"These are my friends who I have played with since childhood. Boss, you have too many things to buy. I can't run alone, so I asked them to help." Sonny replied.
"No problem, don't let them get any less in terms of reward, but keep this a secret." Darrow really didn't expect this, because those things were not bought by one person.
"Yes, boss, don't worry, we won't reveal a word." One of the more clever companions of Sanniruo said.
"Boss, here are the keys." Sanniruo said, took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Darrow, and then left with his companions without looking back.
Darrow touched his chin, and didn't expect Sanniruo to leave so easily, and his evaluation of Sanniruo in his heart increased a few points.
This person is tactful and capable.
It's not that Darrow is stingy. At this critical moment, the less Sanniruo knows, the better for them.
Pushing the huge sliding door open a gap, Darrow leaned in.
In the warehouse, large and small wooden barrels and boxes were piled together, and the boxes and barrels were filled with the materials he needed.
Wood chips, iron sheets, aluminum powder,
Iron oxide powder, grenade components...
All of them were available. These things alone cost Darrow more than three million Baileys, almost the price of half a tavern. It was the first time that Darrow realized that his ability would cost so much money.
The compression fruit should be called the krypton gold fruit.
"These should be white phosphorus."
Walking around these boxes, Darrow walked to a large barrel filled with water. White phosphorus is very unstable. Once exposed to the air, it will spontaneously combust, so it is usually immersed in water.
Sure enough, the cylinder was soaked with white phosphorus.
After counting the things in the warehouse, Darrow moved all the boxes to the side and cleared a space in the middle of the warehouse. He wanted to make all the grenades and bullets here.
In fact, it is not wise to do these dangerous things in the city. Nobel in his previous life set up an explosives factory in the city, but an accident occurred, resulting in a big explosion, and Nobel's brother was also killed in the explosion.
But Darrow had no other choice. The shipyard was originally a good place, but now Darrow didn't dare to get close to it.
After spending an afternoon, Darrow used up all the materials and made various grenades: sawdust grenades, smoke grenades, incendiary grenades, seawater grenades...
The integrated grenade of C3 Red Coffin was also successfully made, and there were two new C3 grenades:
[C3 Heaven Embers] made of compressed white phosphorus powder;
[C3 Purgatory Furnace] made using the principle of thermite reaction.
"It's almost time, it's time to go back." Darrow clapped his hands, looking at the grenades of various sizes in his pocket, and said with satisfaction.
Although it took Darrow a whole day, he was very satisfied with the result. Now even if Owen's companions came, he would have the strength to fight.
At the same time, in the tavern, Roger and his party sat from day to night, drinking and drinking.
Although they had only been together for one day, Lu Jiu seemed to be very familiar with Roger and his group.
"Miss Lu Jiu, let me tell you, when we passed the North Sea before, we saw a whale as big as an island!"
"Eh, really?" Lu Jiu responded in surprise.
"Of course, and we also saw the Kung Fu Manatee performance in the Calm Belt."
"Kung Fu Manatee? What is that?"
...
At the bar, Roger was drinking and telling Lu Jiu about his adventures along the way, causing Lu Jiu to scream.
Before Darrow stepped into the tavern, he heard Lu Jiu's laughter and thought that one of Lu Jiu's friends had come to the tavern. When he walked in, he saw the straw hat on the bar and that guy.
Roger?
"Ah, Darrow, you're back!" Lu Jiu was very surprised to see Darrow back, and then pointed at Roger and introduced him to Darrow: "This is Captain Roger..."
"Well, no need to introduce, Mr. Roger is a famous pirate, I naturally know him." Darrow responded lightly.
"Hey, so Mr. Roger is a pirate?"
"Why, doesn't he look like one?" Roger picked up the straw hat beside him and grinned.
"Well, I always feel that Mr. Roger is very different from those vicious pirates." Lu Jiu said.
"Hahaha, Captain, he said you don't look like a pirate." Jabba, who was a little drunk next to him, laughed.
"Captain, you have to change your outfit in the future. How about wearing a cloak behind you and a pirate hat on your head?"
"Hahaha." Jabba's words made everyone laugh.
"Sister, I'm hungry." Ignoring the lively atmosphere in the tavern, Darrow said to Lu Jiu on the side.
"Okay, I'll cook right away." Lu Jiu saw that it was indeed time for dinner, so she ran back to the kitchen on the second floor to prepare dinner for today.
Only Darrow and Rector were left in the tavern, staring at Roger at the bar.
"I don't think I offended him."
Roger touched his "nose hair" and thought in confusion. He felt Darrow's inexplicable hostility towards him from the moment he entered the door.
It wasn't the kind of hostility that wanted to kill him, but more like the kind that didn't like him.
"Captain, what are we going to have for dinner?"
"I don't know."
"Haha, it's so miserable. Following Captain Roger, I can't even afford to eat."
"Hahahaha"
The members of Roger's pirate group were making fun of Roger one by one, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively again.
