Pirates: Starting from being rescued by Roger

After having enough wine and dinner, Loki checked out and found a hotel to sleep in. When he woke up the next day, he found a merchant ship at the dock and finally successfully embarked on a journey to the Kingdom of Conte for a price of 400,000 beli.

After more than ten days of sailing, the merchant ship finally arrived at Shawar Port, the largest port in the Kangtie Kingdom.

"Then I'll take my leave." Loki said to the sailors on the deck before jumping off the ship and walking towards the town.

After arriving in the town and finding a restaurant to fill his stomach, Loki found a group of caravans heading to the royal city and hitched a ride. Along the way, Loki chatted with the caravan manager: "Brother, let me ask you, do you know how the Namuel family is doing now?" Loki did not ask about Corey but reported Taking the surname of the mother's family.

"Huh? How come you know about the Namur family at such a young age? This family was eliminated twelve years ago. The reason announced by the royal family was rebellion. At that time, more than 20 members of the family were executed." The shopkeeper said somewhat sadly.

"Oh, it's like this. My elders were rescued by members of the Namur family when they were shipwrecked at sea. This time he heard that I was coming to the Kingdom of Kangtie and told me to go to the Namur family to express his gratitude. ...It seems there is no chance now. From your old tone, there is something hidden in this matter! If it is convenient, can you tell me about it?" Loki said indifferently.

"It's not inconvenient. In fact, everyone in the royal city knows what's going on. About twenty years ago, a business wizard appeared in the Kangtie Kingdom. Although that person was a commoner, he made a fortune in more than ten years. The accumulation is more than some nobles who have inherited it for hundreds of years..." the shopkeeper said slowly.

Loki knew as soon as he heard that the shopkeeper was talking about Corey, but he still asked calmly: "Then this man is really powerful! What is his relationship with the Namur family? Could it be that he supports the Namur family in their rebellion? ?”

"Of course not. Although that man is rich, he has no status. Although those in the upper class will give him some face for the sake of money, those nobles look down on us commoners from the bottom of their hearts..." The shopkeeper was somewhat He said lonely.

"In order to get rid of his civilian status, that person first married a young lady from the Namur family, a noble family that was already in decline at the time. Then he spent a lot of money to please the royal family members. In the end, it was said that he was only one step away from being canonized as a noble. It's a pity that what happened next..." The shopkeeper was a little sad.

"What happened?" Loki was very cooperative.

"About twelve years ago, that man and his family went to sea to find treasures for the king on the king's order. It is said that the king had promised him that he would be canonized as a noble as long as he could bring the treasure back. Unfortunately, he was killed by a pirate in the end. , the fighting was so fierce that even the royal family’s ship was sunk..."

"What a pity! If that person was still alive, his status must be very high now." Loki said with emotion. "But the death of this business genius has nothing to do with the Namuel family's rebellion, right?" Loki was a little confused.

"Alas! In the final analysis, it was greed that caused the disaster. Since that person and his family were all killed when they went to sea, everyone who saw such a large amount of property was jealous. The Namur family, who had the closest status, took over that person's property first. Receive them all. According to the laws of the Kingdom of Kangtie, when a civilian dies, one-third of his property must be handed over to the king. The Namur family does not know whether they were crazy because of poverty or because they had water in their heads, but they refused to spit out a cent. Money, and also said that the property belongs to the eldest daughter of their family who is a noble, so there is no need to give it to the king. The king said that after the eldest daughter of the Namuel family married a commoner, she would automatically lose her title of noble... In the end, no matter what the king said about Namuel The Namur family just refused to listen. The king simply colluded with thirteen noble families and fabricated evidence of the Namur family's rebellion. He directly sent out the army to arrest and execute the Namur family. Then the king and the thirteen noble families divided the large sum. property……"

"So the Namuel family has brought their own fault..." Loki murmured.

"Shopkeeper, you know this matter so clearly and you just told me the king's conspiracy to such an outsider, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?" Loki asked curiously.

"Hey! It's no trouble. Everyone in the entire royal city knows about this. Those nobles don't care what we say about them. If they didn't need a reason to communicate externally, they wouldn't fabricate evidence of the Namur family's rebellion directly. Let them disappear quietly, after all, if a family that has been in decline for a long time does not have such a thing as an inheritance, no one will pay attention to them." The shopkeeper said nonchalantly.

Then Loki fell into silence, and the motorcade slowly moved towards the royal city step by step...

After two days of trekking, Loki and the convoy arrived at the royal city. The royal city of the Kingdom of Kangtie is very similar to the Kingdom of Goya in the East China Sea: the outermost area is the area for civilians, the middle area is the area for nobles and wealthy people, and the center is a huge castle where the royal family lives.

Loki said goodbye to the caravan and walked towards a warehouse in the civilian area: it turned out to be the warehouse of Corey's company. Under the warehouse, Corey said he buried fifty million beli in case of emergencies. Nowadays, there is a lot of traffic at the entrance of the warehouse, and there are many vehicles coming to the warehouse to deposit and retrieve goods...

"Let's first determine where Corey buried the money." Loki thought to himself, closed his eyes, opened his eyes, and began to sense: he saw various goods and people's breath intertwined in the warehouse, and he felt it for a moment. Then Loki reached down the warehouse again. After a while, Loki opened his eyes with a solemn expression: "The situation is serious. Except for a few rats and some bugs, there is nothing under the warehouse! Fifty million is not much, but at least I have to get a big one." It can only fit in a box..."

Loki thought to himself and calmly walked to the door of the warehouse and asked the security guard: "Brother, let me ask, I heard someone say that someone dug out treasures in this warehouse before when I was eating in a restaurant. I don't know if it is true or not. "As he said that, he took out a banknote from his bag and handed it to the security guard.

The security guard put the banknotes in his arms nonchalantly and said without raising his eyes: "This is no secret. Two years ago, our boss felt that this warehouse was too old and decided to rebuild a warehouse. Who knew that digging would be done when cleaning the ground?" A large amount of money came out, said to be tens of millions of beli... Speaking of which, our boss was not that lucky. As soon as he dug out the money and before he could hold it in his hand, King Rehu sent someone to say that those people were buried by him before. He took all the money away. The boss was angry and asked someone to find out that this warehouse was really owned by the royal family before... In the end, this mute had no choice but to swallow it..."

"That's it, thank you." Loki said and turned to leave.

"His grandma is also a king. You have taken away all my family's property and now you don't even leave me the money buried in the ground? I will go meet you tonight and wait. No. If you pay the price, I won't call you Loki." Loki became angrier as he thought about it and finally said viciously.
