The years I was a pirate in Interstellar

Chapter 5
Li Ang's fair face was like a ripe apple, and he pushed Kailan away.

"Don't get so close to me, I can't breathe."

"Ah?" Kailan scratched her head, somewhat confused about the situation.

Li Ang said: "The batch of goods we sent from our hometown Huangyangxing to the kingdom's capital star Cyprus has been lost, and most of them were picked up by a group of bastards from the Wrong Tooth Pirates. According to the original plan, when we return, the goods transported They are all kinds of spice raw materials, the value is not high, it is better than going back with an empty cabin, and generally it will not attract star robbers."

"It's different now, sister, Captain, you have owed a large amount of foreign debt. When we go back, we can't continue to use the original conservative method. Even if it is more dangerous, we must go back with a full load of high-value cargo, otherwise we will even pay the interest. No, those creditors will not let you go."

"Is there any interest?"

Li Ang nodded, and continued to stab Kailan, "The interest rate is not low."

Kailan had the idea of ​​hitting himself first again.

"What kind of goods are considered high-value goods?" Kailan asked humbly, ignorant of the market at all.

"Star silk for making high-end clothing, ether crystal mines that contain a lot of energy, active metals produced in special star fields, etc."

"Okay, where can I buy these things?"

Li Ang scratched his head, "Things are not difficult to buy, and the capital is very prosperous, but the problem is that these things are too precious and extremely valuable, and it is easy to encounter large star robber groups. We may not even have a chance to escape, and we will be thrown away." Going to space as trash."

"Then there is no such kind of goods that are not too coveted but can make a lot of money?"

Li Ang looked embarrassed, "Unless we help the people in the black market deliver those contraband, the people in the black market are in collusion with the star thieves who are wandering around the kingdom, because the star thieves are still pointing at the people in the black market to help them purchase supplies , I won’t be embarrassed when I meet someone who helps the black market to transport contraband.”

Kailan said in surprise, "Isn't this great?"

"What's the matter, the star robbers don't care about us, but the police of the Kingdom Space Administration will come to trouble us. Once they are found, they will face sky-high fines and be sent to the barren star to grow beans and fruits. May never come back."

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, I'll sit and wait to die!"

"So I suggest to use our remaining funds to buy some high-value but untrue goods at a low price on the black market, so that we can make enough profits, and in order to avoid being targeted by star thieves on our cargo ship, we have to go to star thieves There are relatively few hidden channels, take a chance."

"Secret channel?"

"Yes, you have to buy this on the black market. The hidden channels are all old star maps left over from the era of the Milky Way. Because of this and that reason, they were abandoned. It is a test of eyesight, because the black market transaction is the goods leaving the hands. , no refunds, no exchanges, and no buyers are allowed to ask for a later account, it is very likely that the map sold is a route of ten deaths and no life."

"This is too pitiful!"

"The black market, it's not normal if it's not black."

"What you said is so reasonable, I can't even refute it. Then when can we go to the capital of the kingdom?"

"There is still about a week's flight to arrive. After all, we have deviated from the original route and it will take more time than usual."

Kailan was surprised and said: "It's been so long, just staying on the boat every day like this, isn't it going to be suffocated to death?"

Li Ang stared at his sister with a strange expression, and said bluntly: "Captain, there seems to be something wrong with you!"

Kailan was startled, and quickly took out the set of arguments that he had thought up in the room, and opened his mouth to talk nonsense:

"You may not believe it, didn't I hit my head during the transition? As a result, I forgot a lot of things, and I can't remember everything clearly. It is probably the sequelae caused by the concussion."

Li Angteng stood up suddenly, and asked with concern: "Sister, don't you forget me too?"

"I just remember that you are my younger brother. I don't know what else I forgot. Oh, by the way, I can't even read the text now."

"That's too serious. There is no professional medical equipment on board. What can we do?"

Seeing Li Ang flustered, Kailan quickly comforted him: "Do you think I'm pretty good? There's nothing wrong with it. It's just people, knowledge, etc., which have been formatted by me. I have to learn from scratch. Maybe I When did you remember it all of a sudden?"

Li Ang opened his mouth, wanting to say something else, but seeing his sister's long-lost bright smile, he swallowed the words again.

Li Ang volunteered and said: "Then for the next period of time, I will teach you characters and all kinds of necessary knowledge. The first "Common Language" will start after dinner."

Kailan wanted to slap herself on the mouth, amnesia would be amnesia, what illiteracy, it's over now, the summer vacation is only two days away, and I have to go back to class again.

"Let's discuss, can we start studying again tomorrow?"

"No, time is running out!"

Looking at Kailan's bitter face, the boy laughed.

In fact, the current elder sister is the elder sister in his impression.

Amnesia, it seems, is fine too.
