Chapter 1067: The Ship's Disaster and the Ingredients for Soaking Wine
Looking at the new emblem that was rapidly solidifying on the panel, Leon, who was thinking "Wow, this actually works", couldn't help but open his eyes wide in surprise.
[Men and Women on the Big Ship: A beautiful woman of noble birth, a talented poor young man, a giant ship far away from the real world, and a touching love that transcends class and worldliness]
[Effect of wearing: When you are standing on the bow of a boat with a person of the opposite sex who loves you, neither you nor she will catch a cold]
[Advanced route: If you take a ship with three married people of the opposite sex who love you and encounter a shipwreck each time, this badge will automatically advance to the hidden gold badge "Ocean Disaster"]
[Hidden Features (No Need to Wear): Due to your unique wildness and the warm vitality like the morning sun, you will be extremely attractive to the opposite sex who are of noble birth, married or engaged, and tired of their current situation.]
[Hidden Feature 2 (No Need to Wear): When traveling on a ship with a woman who loves you, the probability of your ship encountering a shipwreck will increase significantly.]
"..."
What kind of B effect is this... and to advance, you have to go out to sea with three married people of the opposite sex and encounter three shipwrecks before you can upgrade?
Looking at the brilliantly glowing [Men and Women on a Large Ship] on the panel, the corners of Leon's mouth twitched violently, as if he saw the Prime Minister's smile on this lustful badge...
The problem is that I didn't go on the boat with someone else's fiancée. I had a proper wedding! I'm a married person with a standard harmonious marriage life! Even if I die, I may be forced to cheat, but I'm still alive, right?
"Leon?"
After waiting for a while without any follow-up, Queen Veronica, who closed her eyes at Leon's request, could not help but lean back in the arms behind her and asked with some doubt:
"I closed my eyes, and then what?"
Then?
Realizing that the cosplay was not over yet, Leon came to his senses and closed the panel, saying:
"And then you open your eyes."
"Good~"
Although she didn't know what Leon wanted to do, she guessed that he might want to have some "fun". Queen Veronica smiled and nodded, opened her eyes and looked at the beautiful... iceberg in front of her?
As the two watched in astonishment, a huge white iceberg "grew" out of nowhere from the surface of the sea at an astonishing speed, accurately blocking the route of the "Prince of Lyon (crossed out) Carriage", and then...
"boom!!!"
……
How could...how could this happen? ! ! !
Being held on Leon's shoulders, Melanie looked through the observation window at the cargo that was rising and falling in the sea water in her own closed cabin. Her eyes immediately turned red. After getting off Leon's shoulders, she clutched her skirt tightly with both hands and said nervously:
"Brother! Where are the goods on the top? I didn't see clearly just now. How are the goods on the top? Are they soaked in water?"
The top product... Sigh... Big Brother has really tried his best, but the problem is that Johnson's anomaly only protects people and not the products, and the product you brought is the first edition of the BB machine from the First Research Institute, which is not waterproof at all...
"It's even worse than the stuff below. It's already swirling in the water."
After giving the tearful Great Rose God a helpless look, Leon concluded helplessly:
"Let's fish it out when we get there. The boxes are painted so they won't get soaked. We should be able to get some money if we sell them."
"Ouch..." After seeing the tragic result of the pearl being destroyed and only the casket left, Melanie's miserable little face couldn't help but fall. She threw herself into the arms of Anna, who also had a helpless look on her face, and began to sob uncontrollably, her shoulders heaving. She looked so pitiful.
"In fact, the situation is not necessarily that serious. You can think more positively."
Seeing that she seemed to have suffered a serious blow, Leon, who felt a little reluctant, thought for a moment and said something to comfort her:
"For example, in order to raise the price of your pager, you specially ordered these packaging boxes. They are all made of high-quality materials produced by the First Research Institute. They are much more valuable than ordinary boxes. If you sell them all...you can pay back about one-seventieth of your sister-in-law's loan?"
"Wow!!!"
After hearing Leon's comfort, Melanie, who was originally about to cry, remembered that she had borrowed money to order these goods, suddenly couldn't hold it back anymore and burst into tears.
"Don't cry, don't cry! It's okay, it's okay!"
After glaring at Leon who was trying to comfort her, Anna quickly picked up the crying Melanie and brought her to a place away from the sad place in the cargo hold. She patted her back as she trembled with tears and whispered soft words to comfort her.
Lyon, who was disliked for his ruthless attack and was ordered not to do anything bad, had no choice but to stay where he was and look at his calm brother William.
"Brother, there is indeed something wrong with your comfort just now."
After receiving Leon's inquiring gaze, William hesitated for a moment, then raised his little face and concluded seriously:
"You have to tell Melanie that all the loans she took out were interest-free."
"Oh!"
Oh what? You two must have done this on purpose!
Anna, who heard the conversation between the two brothers, was afraid that they would say something else, so she quickly covered Melanie's ears, walked quickly up the cargo ladder and left the bottom cabin. The two Leon brothers who were left behind, together with several other crying ship merchants, studied the cabin that was flooded due to the collision with the iceberg.
Although a huge iceberg suddenly grew on the sea and the two sides collided head-on, due to the effect of [Hurricane Johnson], there were no casualties on the Prince Leon (crossed out) Carriage. Only nine cabins on the right side near the bow were cracked.
Excluding the three watertight compartments, the remaining six compartments were filled with this shipment's cargo. Even though not every cargo in each compartment was as water-resistant as the first edition of the BB machine that Melanie had invested heavily in, the merchants whose cargo was in these six compartments also suffered heavy losses, especially...
"My wine!!!"
Looking through the blurry observation window at the large wooden barrel in the cabin that was more than half cracked, and the sea water that had been dyed pink by the mellow wine, the fat merchant, who was so fat that he didn't even have a neck, guessed that he was doing business with borrowed money like the Great Rose Goddess, and he immediately began to beat his chest and cry loudly.
When the fat businessman rolled his eyes and fainted from crying, Leon, who was attracted by his crying louder than his sister's, couldn't help but go to the observation window sealed with four layers of glass and looked into the cabin curiously.
Well... it's a little better than Melanie's situation. There's still one-third of the wine barrels sealed. I think they can be sold after the water in the cabin is drained... What kind of wine is this? Judging from the color and the winery pattern, it looks like an old Bronte barrel? The director invited me to drink it twice before.
But he seems to have changed the recipe, and added some wine soaking ingredients, which looks pretty good. Let me take a look... cinnamon buns, orange, cardamom leaves, mermaid...
Mermaid?!!!
