Pirates: The first companion is Tom Cat

Chapter 328 Leaning Back: What Is Carrying Private Goods (4000 words)

Shields Town is a relatively wealthy town, and the navy took this into consideration when it placed Melville next to it—it could provide some help and a lot of jobs for the relatively poor Melville.

Because of the previous alarm, the townspeople skillfully hid away from the coast, or got into their basements. In such an era, it is very important to build a hidden basement at home, whether it is for hiding people or money, it is very useful.

Many townspeople stood on high ground and watched the naval battle in the distance. After confirming the victory of the navy, they cheered and conveyed the good news to everyone. Every time the navy defeats the pirates, it is a great joy for them. Today, there will probably be a few more good dishes or a few bottles of good wine on the dinner table of every family.

The residents who came to take refuge rejoiced, trotting all the way back to their homes or their shops, nervously checking whether the houses were damaged or the goods were lost.

In a festive yet somewhat tense atmosphere, only a small group of people are walking against the flow of people, going in and spending as soon as they see where the business reopens.

"Welcome! Fresh fruits, 20% off today!" The owner of a small fruit stand greeted warmly.

"Is there such a good thing?" Zhang Da was also taken aback, and then he waved his hand boldly, "It's all covered!"

The boss's face was filled with joy, the money was so easy to earn today, even with a discount, it was much more than usual. So he sorted and boxed all kinds of fruits quickly, but took out a few of each kind and put them aside, and packed another big bag.

Zhang Da also pointed to the bag of fruit and asked, "What does this mean?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, this bag is not for sale. I heard that this battle is very difficult, and I plan to go to condolences to the injured navy."

Not only the owner of this fruit stand, many people have rushed to the naval base with meat, vegetables, eggs and other things.

People's hearts are fleshy, and they are grateful from the bottom of their hearts seeing those familiar faces fighting to the death with vicious pirates in order to protect the town.

Although some people take it for granted that they should go to battle with that salary, more people understand in their hearts that the most common navy third-class soldier only costs tens of thousands of pele a month. Not for the sense of responsibility and justice in my heart.

The townspeople have heard stories of some navies who cheated, and they know how lucky it is to have a responsible army stationed nearby, so they admire and appreciate these lovely soldiers.

Zhang Da also regretted asking that question a bit, and he might feel guilty when he went back to the naval base to eat and drink. But think about it, anyway, the sailors are not relieved to pay for it themselves.

He rented a flatbed cart on the side of the road to pull a few boxes of fruit, and continued to purchase other things.

Tom sat in the car as a matter of course. The lazy cat never stood up when it could sit, and never sat down when it could lie down.

Wendy, who had just exhausted a lot of energy, also got into the car under Perona's instigation, and Perona sat in the car as a matter of course on the grounds of taking care of her.

Zhang Da also made it clear: "Should some people come down and walk by themselves? Eat high-sugar and high-calorie foods all day long, and don't like to exercise. Be careful to become fat like Lu Dashan!"

A picture of himself gaining weight floated above Tom's head, and he shook his head to express that it didn't matter. It's easy to lose weight after gaining weight.

Zhang Da also waved away the white bubbles above his head: "I'm not talking about you."

Perona snorted: "If you want to take care of it, it's the interest you stole from my snacks! What about going to buy snacks?"

"I know the snacks, I will take you to the pet market to sell now."

"Why a pet!?"

While laughing, everyone strolled around the main street of the town. There were more vegetables and meat ingredients in the car, several boxes of toothpaste, and some other daily necessities.

Arturia had a bunch of meatballs in her left hand and a piece of taiyaki in her right hand. She turned her head and stared at a cold drink shop, and there seemed to be words like popsicles written in her eyes.

A few minutes later, everyone had an ice cream, except Ye Yan, who disguised himself as ice cream. According to him, this is called 'Cold in Winter', and it can also be called 'Cold in the Moonlight' at night. It is a very artistic work.

When he came out of the cold drink shop, not only did the boss refuse to take money for anything, but he also wanted to pay Ye Yan and asked him to help distribute leaflets.

Ye Yan repeatedly explained that this is a performance art, but in the end he still took the leaflets and banknotes, and walked vigorously while advertising: "Ace Cream Cold Drink Shop, new product launch, 20% discount!"

Everyone looked at each other, Rui Mengmeng asked curiously: "Why is he so proficient?"

Zhang Da also said: "On the one hand, it's because of thick skin, and on the other hand, it may be because I have been doing such odd jobs, and I have long been used to it."

Facts have proved that the owner of the cold drink shop has a very vicious eye. Ye Yan's appearance has attracted the attention of many people, especially children and young girls who have no resistance to Ye Yan's appearance and cuteness. Many people took Ye Yan to take a photo I happily went to find this store with a leaflet, and the owner of the cold drink shop made a lot of money.

After distributing the leaflets in minutes, Ye Yan followed the team of his companions, and asked anxiously, "How do you know how good my performance art is?"

"Brother Yan, if I can't afford food in the future, I will rely on you." Zhang Da also patted him on the back. He felt that it was a pity that Ye Yan, with his image, temperament and professional ability, was a pity to send out leaflets, and he was more suitable for some indescribable places. The husband of the weaver girl in the shop.

Ye Yan stared at Zhang Daye with his dead fish eyes: "I always feel that you want to murder me."

"Nothing!"

...

After sending the goods back to the ship, the cart was returned. Zhang Da also visited the naval base at the invitation of the navy.

When the sailors in the base knew about it, they all showed gratitude when they saw the amber tour group. Whether it is helping to intercept artillery shells flying to the island or helping dying comrades, the favorability of the sailors for them has gradually increased.

Wendy, in particular, received the most attention, because it was this child who pulled their comrades back from death one by one, and she was so cute.

Lieutenant Lipa said: "I'm sorry, the base chief and Captain Mengka are seriously injured, and it's inconvenient to see guests, so I can only receive you."

"It doesn't matter who comes to receive you." Zhang Da also asked, "It's their injuries. Is there any danger?"

Lieutenant Lipa replied: "No problem, the necessary surgery has been done, and the doctor said that it will be fine as long as you recuperate slowly."

"That's good." Zhang Daye and the others briefly visited the 153 branch under the leadership of Lieutenant Lipa.

Compared with the naval branch on the Chambord Islands that Zhang Da had also seen, the conditions here are very average. Whether it is the area or the level of construction, it is not as good as Chambord. It may be because the head of the base did not extort money like the later Monka, so the funds limited.

A simple building and a square for training, there is nothing else. This square is the one where Sauron was tied to a cross and exposed to the sun with hunger.

But no one cared about this except Zhang Daye. What attracted them most was the cafeteria at the base.

In order to thank the amber tour group for their kindness and also to celebrate this victory, the banquet arranged by the navy is based on the highest level of the branch. Apart from drinking alcohol, the food is dazzling.

But because this time I went shopping and ate for a long time beforehand, and the chefs in branch 153 had mediocre cooking skills, so Artoria leniently kept her mouth shut and didn't let the chefs get tired from cooking.

But even so, Lieutenant Lipa and the others stared straight at them. After the head chef submitted the material consumption statistics, the head of the base was also shocked.

The base chief had a splint on his left hand, and his left leg was hung up with a plaster cast. Now he was lying on the bed, and Lieutenant Lipa held the report to him. Add a rule in the military regulations that does not allow the amber tour group to eat without authorization?"

A drop of sweat dripped from Lieutenant Lipa's head: "It's too much to treat the benefactor of the soldiers just because of a meal..."

"That's right." The base chief sighed, "Forget it, take the report back and change it, let's report the battle damage."

Now Lieutenant Lipa has a headache, how to write this report? Our department fought fiercely with the pirate group, all members were injured, zero were killed, a few shells were consumed, and two cannons were damaged...

There is no problem with these, but if we add the loss of 100 catties of beef, 200 catties of mutton, 100 fish, 500 catties of seasonal vegetables, some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, 21 plates lost, and one damaged ...Can this headquarters be trusted?

...

"Hi!" Tom hiccupped with a movement of his throat, took a mouthful of hot water, hiccupped again a few seconds later, and took another mouthful of hot water...

Perona and Wendy patted Tom's back lightly, hoping to help him relieve his symptoms. The hiccups were nothing serious, and Wendy couldn't do anything about it.

Zhang Da also pulled Tom's cheek and scolded him: "You just eat when you eat, why did you swallow the plates together, and swallowed more than 20! Do you feel uncomfortable now?"

Tom glanced at Arturia with an innocent expression. I probably want to say that seeing her eating so deliciously, she couldn't help eating more and faster, and swallowed the plate together without paying attention.

Artoria's expression is more innocent, is it wrong to eat delicious food? When she saw Tom eating the plate, she thought that the plate of this branch was made of special ingredients, and secretly tried to bite...

She covered her mouth, her teeth hurt a little, if you have time to ask Shark Pepper how to take care of it?

"Hi'er!" Tom shrugged his shoulders and hiccupped again, the trembling on his body was conveyed to Zhang Daye through the hand pinching his cheek.

Zhang Da also had a slight tremor all over his body, which spread all the way to the top of his head, and finally even his hair stood up, and he let out a faint 'hiccup' sound, which proved that the sound was produced by vibration, and the transmission required a medium, so he was so scared that he hurried let go.

Everyone talked about various methods, such as drinking water, taking deep breaths, and doing exercises, but the more they got worse, the worse they became. Finally, when Tom hiccupped, the tremor would be transmitted from him to the Amber, and the whole ship followed. Shaking, making a sound that sounds like the Amber is hiccupping.

"No~~That's right! Yes~~Don't be so exaggerated~~Zhang!" Zhang Da even started to tremble with Tom's hiccups.

If the Amber continues to shake like this, they will not be able to set sail.

"Why don't you scare Teacher Tom?" Rui Mengmeng suggested, and she was not spared either.

So Wendy and Perona bared their teeth and claws in front of Tom, made a fierce look, and let out a 'scary' growl: "Wow~"

Super fierce.

Zhang Da also covered his face, are you two planning to kill him?

Tom looked at the two little lolis with fierce breasts, and still responded with hiccups.

Wendy and Perona were dejected. At this moment, a dog barked suddenly sounded behind Tom: "Wow, woof..."

Tom was startled, and scratched the spot with his four paws in a panic, then rushed up to the top of the mast, trembling while hugging the flagpole above, and looked around for the vicious dog.

In the end, Tom only saw a big ice cream beckoning to him: "It's okay, I imitated the sound of a dog barking, just to scare you, are you hiccupping?"

Tom froze and touched his chest, as if he had stopped hiccupping, but he still didn't dare to go down. Can he learn how to bark like a dog? It sounds just like the real thing. This skill is almost as good as Jerry's.

"Don't you believe me?" Ye Yan understood Tom's expression, and explained, "This is the professional skill 'bionic ventriloquist' of a watchman. Learning the sound of an animal is not a problem."

As Ye Yan said, he learned how to bark like a dog, a bird, and a mouse. He learned all of them so vividly that Tom slid down hesitantly. While sliding, he thought, everything else is very similar, but is the mouse barking like that?

Tom suddenly found that he was a cat, and he couldn't remember what the sound of a mouse was like.

Jian Jian said goodbye to the Paul family in Melville, and the Amber set sail again.

Wendy began to distribute gifts to everyone, such as garlands, hair clips, candies, cookies, senbei, etc., all of which were given to her by enthusiastic sailors when they left the naval base.

When Wendy walked out of the gate of the base, she held a rickety mountain of gifts in her arms, which even blocked her view, making Perona envious, clamoring to learn healing magic.

Zhang Da also opened a pack of senbei and chewed it, feeling that he is now at the same level as Sengoku Karp.

After floating for a while, he asked, "Where should the next stop be?"

Shark Pepper unfolded the chart and pointed with his finger: "The next stop is Orange Town, a small town similar to Shields Town, and we can arrive tomorrow."

Orange Town is the place where Baki appeared in the original plot, the earliest battlefield of the War of the Four Emperors, but now Baki has been sent in by them. The most interesting place on the island is a pet food store.

Zhang Da also looked at Tom, Xia Lulu and Artoria, thinking about whether to buy some pet food for them.

Shark Chili continued: "But we have enough food, we don't have anything to replenish, and we don't need to stop. It will take about three to five days to go to the next island. There is only a small village called Xiluobu Village on the island. I heard that There is a sniper on this island who is very famous in the East China Sea."
