Chapter 242: 1 Steamed and 1 Braised
...
"Also, this auction house will take a high-end approach in the future, focusing on auctioning rare items and pirate slaves with high bounties, and try not to have civilian slaves. It doesn't matter if we make less money, but the key is not to make it too cheap, and to have class! Do you understand?"
Ger added.
"Yes, yes, I understand! I understand! You are worthy of being an adult. Your unique insights really enlighten me. I will definitely do as you say."
The man with a mustache was afraid that his memory was not good and he would forget such an important thing just like he forgot who bought those pirate slaves. He hurriedly took out a pen from his suit pocket and carefully wrote down key words such as Feigaland, Galin Saint, Red Hair, etc. in the small notebook, as well as the important guidelines for the future development of Auction House No. 1 that Tianlongren Saint personally formulated for him.
"By the way, sir, should I send the 8% of the profits from the auction directly to the Holy Land, or keep it for you to pick up?"
"Forehead..."
I didn't expect this guy to be so serious. Gel was a little stumped for a moment. He just wanted to take the tens of billions of Baileys he had cheated and leave, not caring about the future.
"How about this, you can see what Galin Saint means when the time comes. If he wants it, you can hand over your share to the Feigarande family every month. If he doesn't say anything, just keep it for me and come back to get it when I'm free. By the way, remember to keep all the devil fruits for me. It doesn't matter if the price is a little higher."
"Okay, no problem sir! I've got it all down!"
On the side, knowing that Captain Gill was talking nonsense again, Tesoro and Stella looked at each other, then lowered their heads and tried not to laugh.
"Well, if there's nothing else, we should go back. I'll invite you to the Holy Land of Marijoa for tea next time I come back."
"Thank you for your kindness!"
After the matter was settled, Gel stood up and walked towards the door with a few people.
"Sir, please wait a moment! I forgot to take your things."
"kindness?"
Upon hearing this, Gel quickly counted the number of suitcases in Weeble and Barrett's hands, and fortunately found that there were no fewer.
Just when I was feeling a little confused, I saw several guards running out carrying two sacks, one large and one small.
"My Lord, here are the two mermaids you photographed, as well as a key and a remote control. Pressing the button will cause the collar to explode and prevent the slave from escaping."
The man with a mustache handed Ger a bunch of keys and two small remote controls and said.
Blow up your head, won't my slave be gone if it explodes? For me, what's the difference between that and running away? Idiot, can't you get a paralysis collar?
"Oh, I almost forgot. Come on, Xiaoba, get it."
Gel's expression was natural, and he didn't look embarrassed at all.
It was the first time that Tesoro saw someone buy something without spending any money and the store owner was willing to pay for it. He was completely impressed and looked at Captain Gir with admiration.
...
After coming out of Auction House No. 1, the man with the mustache saw him off enthusiastically. Considering that he had helped so much, Gel was not in a hurry to send him away.
After all, after this, Beger might never see him again, so he felt a little sympathetic.
Strictly speaking, the Sabaody Archipelago is not a real island. The "ground" here is just the roots of the Yarkiman mangroves exposed above the sea.
We didn't walk far before arriving at the edge of Island No. 1, which was about ten meters below the sea level. Ten thousand meters below the sea was the legendary Fishman Island.
Many mermaids and mermen like to float to the surface of the sea under the cover of night to admire the dim lights of Champagne from afar, and then be captured and sold as slaves for money. This is so similar to the reality of using the light-attraction of fish schools at night to catch and sell fish.
I don't understand what's so good about an amusement park that you have to risk your life to see it? The key is that you can't even play there. Can't you build one yourself on Fishman Island?
Geer shook his head and could only sigh:
Zi Feiyu, know the joy of fish?
Pulling his thoughts out of his random thoughts, Gel signaled Barrett to pour out the two mermaids from the sack.
The two mermaids, who had regained their sight, looked at the group of "bad guys" in front of them with panic and vigilance.
Curious about what new tricks the Celestial Dragon Saint would play with the beautiful mermaids in this desolate wilderness, the man with the mustache moved closer and took a front row seat, ready to learn.
Although mermaids have fish tails on their lower bodies, they are relatively convenient to move on land, unlike fish that can only jump around aimlessly when out of water (except for carp, foresee).
"Clap clap clap!"
Because of nervousness, Lusa's beautiful purple fish tail unconsciously flapped the ground.
The male mermaid Ha Qiu tried to move his body to protect Lusa behind him, but considering his strong aggressiveness, in addition to the explosive collar, the auctioneers also considerately handcuffed his hands behind his back and tied his fish tail tightly, so after several unsuccessful attempts, he could only use mental attacks, staring at Gel and the others with anger and shouting:
"Asshole! Don't come over here! You, what do you want to do! "
"How rude! It's just a gift! You don't have the right to speak here! What do you mean you should call me master!"
The mustache scolded him severely, then turned to Geer and explained:
"I'm sorry, sir. These two mermaids were just sold to the auction house two days ago. We haven't had time to train them yet. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. If you're not in a hurry, you can leave them at the auction house for a few days. I will definitely have someone help you train them until they are obedient and docile."
Upon hearing this, the two mermaids couldn't help but shudder and felt cold all over.
Although they didn't have the chance to eat the loving meal of tamed slaves at the auction house, they were fortunate enough to watch it up close as spectators several times, so when the mustache man mentioned that he would take them back for training, they immediately became obedient.
The mermaid Lusa was so frightened that her big eyes were watery and tears were about to burst out, but she bit her lips stubbornly and tried hard not to cry, looking very pitiful.
"It's okay, no need to train me, I just like wild ones."
Gel hung the key ring on his index finger and spun it, then walked forward and warned with a smile:
"Stay still, don't make any noise or else one of you will be steamed and the other braised!"
Seeing the man approaching, Lusa was frightened at first, but when she found that this human actually wanted to help her untie the collar around her neck, she was surprised and hesitated for two seconds before actively cooperating by raising her head and stretching her neck.
Gel squatted down and began to look for the holes on the collar.
Lusa suddenly realized that in this position, she was too close to the other person, almost face to face, and she could even feel the other person's hot breath hitting her cheek.
Her heartbeat quickened and her body began to stiffen. It felt like an electric shock.
