Pirate Merchant

"I have a big plan to change the world, hiccup! Since phone bugs can communicate over long distances through their unique voices! Then! Hiccup! If we can edit the unique sound waves of phone bugs, we can compare them with the image phone bugs. Combined! With the ultra-rare terminal phone bug! Wouldn’t it be possible to get a phone bug that can transmit pictures and text, and can also work?!”

In front of the bar, a middle-aged man wearing a somewhat tattered suit and looking particularly haggard was holding a glass of wine, his eyes shining with a brilliance that even the light couldn't hide, and he talked about his dream to Mu Qian in an astonishing way. His mouth felt a little... He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"It's a good idea, but it's just an idea, right? Although the sound transmission of telephone bugs can be edited and changed mechanically, I have never heard of the ultra-rare terminal telephone bug."

Mu Qian listened to the dream of the poor middle-aged man and waved his hand to the bartender to fill his empty glass.

"Hahaha, of course I hiccup! Of course I have news about the existence of ultra-rare terminal phone bugs. Have you heard about Wano Country? Hiccup! When I was a sailor in the Lucky Caravan last year, I was lucky enough to get one in Wano Country. There is only a smart snail, and the one that transmits the weak signal of the smart snail is the big snail! As long as we develop a machine that can control the big snail! Then we can create the kind of phone bug I mentioned!"

The middle-aged man stood up in excitement, as if he had already possessed the giant snail and then developed the telephone bug of his dreams.

"A giant snail with the lead? This kind of phone bug is indeed magical, but are you sure you can make a machine that can strengthen and amplify the transmission of thought waves?"

Mu Qian is also interested. Isn't this guy Nelson talking about 'mobile phone' and 'Wifi'?

"No, not at all! But! As long as we find someone who can make this machine! Then! We can work together to make a smart phone bug! Once we make this kind of phone bug! Then we can use the phone bug that everyone has Telephone Bug opens the Telephone Bug Network! Buy things through that network! In cooperation with the Lucky Chamber of Commerce, we are connecting the whole world!"

Nelson, who was already drunk, raised his arms and shouted. Nelson, who was thinking very clearly when he was drunk, continued to perfect his dream, and already talked about Mu Qian as his confidant.

"Haha, indeed, your dream is very feasible, is it to control the device that leads the big spiral wave? This thing can only be tried with Vegapunk? Or try it with Usopp and let him exercise his Manual skills?”

Although Nelson was talking drunkenly, Mu Qian kept nodding his head and lamenting the feasibility of this method. Although Mu Qian did not intend to get involved in the profitable but troublesome project of phone bug networking, he was happy to help this full-scale project. Men dream of success.

"I finally found you. I didn't expect someone like you, Mr. Mu, to be so 'ordinary' and hide among the crowd."

Just as Mu Qian was sitting at the bar quietly listening to Nelson's bragging, Violet, wearing a flamenco dance skirt, walked into the bar, walked to Mu Qian's side, and stretched out her hand to put on Mu Qian's shoulder. superior.

"His name is Nelson, and he brags all day long, saying that he can make the whole world peaceful with phone bugs, and even use phone bugs to wipe out all pirates, so everyone calls him Niupini You may be crazy Neil, and the family leader Rao G is very disgusted with his arrogance."

Violet held Mu Qian's shoulders and sat on Mu Qian's right side, telling Mu Qian softly about Nelson's past misdeeds.

"Really? I think what he said is very good. This guy is worth cultivating. His ambitions and dreams are big enough, but unfortunately his abilities are not enough to match his ambitions and dreams."

Mu Qian looked at Nelson lying drunk on the table with a joyful smile on his left side. He was very optimistic about the dreams he just mentioned.

"Boss, I got the wild 'big headed snail' you asked for. It cost a total of 3.7 million berries."

The air door slowly opened behind Mu Qian. Bruno, who had already changed into daily clothes, carried a large river snail and several smart snails and placed them on the bar in front of Mu Qian.

"Excuse me, would you like a drink?"

Mu Qian looked at Bruno, who was extremely efficient, and couldn't help but sigh that he was indeed an elite killer.

"No, I got the latest episode of animation, and I want to go back and finish it now."

Bruno shook his head and rejected Mu Qian's request, turned around and walked back into the air door.

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

Mu Qian took out a white medal with a dove of peace and an olive branch from his pocket and placed it next to Nelson.

"Is this the medal of your merchant association? Did you give it to him so easily?"

Violet, who had been investigating Mu Qian, asked Mu Qian in surprise when she saw the medal Mu Qian placed on the bar.

"This medal is for reserve members. Although you can borrow some berries from the Chamber of Commerce and receive some help, if you exceed the usage rights, it will be withdrawn. This is just my recognition of him. If he can succeed, then this The world will become a better place because of the new technological revolution. If he fails to succeed, then I can only treat it as buying a lesson this time."

After putting down the medal, Mu Qian paid for the drinks he and Nelson had spent, then turned and walked out the door.

"Aren't you going to send someone to protect him? Isn't that big snail with the lead expensive?"

Violet, who was following Mu Qian, looked worriedly at Nelson, who was lying on the bar counter drunk, and asked Mu Qian not quite understanding.

"No, there's only so much I can do. Whether he will be robbed of the big snail and whether he will lose the Medal of the Chamber of Commerce is his own 'luck', just like he met today and wants to avoid all It’s the same as me who rests, if I interfere too much with him, it’s better for me to do it myself, after all, I can do it better and faster than him.”

After leaving the bar, Mu Qian closed his eyes and felt the cool night breeze. He stretched his waist and replied after feeling that his thinking was particularly clear in the coolness.

"People, if you live in an environment that is too comfortable, you will only become lazy, sluggish, and not enterprising. That man is so eager to change his reputation because he cannot satisfy the desire in his heart. If I If you are satisfied for him, then he will only sink down and enjoy everything he gets."

Mu Qian, holding a metal jug in his hand, drank the special fine wine of the Kingdom of Dressrosa, and walked slowly on this bustling street even at night, enjoying the enthusiasm of the city.

"I have seen too many people on the mothership who gave up their dreams and ambitions because their material life was satisfied. Although there is nothing wrong with being peaceful, if you want to do great things, no matter how peaceful and docile you are on the surface, you must do everything in your heart. The ambition must be possessed, otherwise it will not be enough."

Mu Qian mingled with the dancing crowd, twisting his body to enjoy the passionate city festival unreservedly with drunkenness and ease, and sincerely hoped that Nelson would be the "chosen son" who would soar into the sky.
