Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 2111: Chapter 2111: King of the Pirates (2)

Chuzheng stared at the black flag for a while, pondering what to hang up in the future to make it look cool.

[...Big sis, aren’t you thinking too soon?]

Chuzheng clenched her fist: A girl cannot give up her dreams!

[...] The King’s Account didn’t want to talk, only wanted to be left alone. Don’t ask it who ’left alone’ is.

After musing about the flag, Chuzheng remembered her life-threatening spendthrift mission and hurriedly left.

The ship was huge, and Chuzheng saw groups of people, wanting to find someone alone...

Chuzheng’s gaze paused slightly, her eyes brightened a little as she looked at a young man in the corner below, who was eagerly trying to sell something to someone.

”This is good stuff, take a look, you won’t regret it, it’s a bargain!”

”I’m busy, maybe next time!!” The person being pestered by the young man broke free and ran off quickly.

Chuzheng glanced at what the young man was holding in his hand. She didn’t know what it was since it was packed in a bag, and it looked a bit heavy.

The young man scratched his head, looking a bit disheartened, but soon he spotted another person and quickly went up to them, trying hard to sell the item in his bag.

However, everyone he approached found excuses to leave, wishing they could get as far away from him as possible.

The salesman dejectedly shook the bag.

”Hey.”

Chuzheng called out once there was no one around, leaning on the railing.

The young man looked up, quite handsome, though a bit tanned. He squinted slightly, examining Chuzheng with a few glances.

Chuzheng wore a green cloth garment, her delicate features looking a bit pale and sickly, appearing somewhat weak.

This person...

”Who are you? How come I’ve never seen you before?”

”The ship is so big, it’s normal you haven’t seen me,” Chuzheng said confidently.

”I’ve seen everyone on this ship, there’s no way I haven’t seen you, who are you?” Suddenly, the young man pulled out a soft sword from his waist and pointed it at Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Well, aren’t you impressive now.

Chuzheng fished out some silver from her sleeve and tossed it down.

The silver pieces rolled a few times and stopped by the young man’s feet.

The young man, furious, said, ”Don’t insult me with silver!”

Chuzheng shook her sleeve, and a considerable amount of silver clanked down, causing a significant change of expression in the young man’s eyes.

It was a look of hesitation, yet he struggled with a sense of betrayal to his organization.

Chuzheng finally took out two gold ingots and threw them at the young man’s feet: ”I want what you have in your hand.”

The young man looked at the silver on the ground, then back at the unsellable item in his hand, his gaze shifted, and he quickly pocketed the silver, ”Alright, seeing you so sincere, I’ll sell it to you.”

The young man secured the silver and threw the cloth bag toward Chuzheng.

The cloth bag wasn’t tightly tied, and as the young man tossed it high into the air, when it fell, the mouth of the bag faced downward, and the item inside fell out.

Chuzheng: ”!!!”

Snake!

Alive!!

The snake wasn’t large, but it was a cobra. If Chuzheng hadn’t dodged quickly, the snake would definitely have fallen on her...

The cobra hit the ground; maybe it was stunned. It twisted its body, momentarily not raising its head.

Chuzheng quickly stepped forward, grabbed the cobra by the tail, and threw it towards the young man below.

The young man was stunned, not expecting Chuzheng to be so bold.

Reacting a split second too slow, the cobra landed on his shoulder, and it bit him on the neck.

The young man’s reactions were swift too. He grabbed the cobra and pulled it off, fetched a small porcelain bottle from his waist, and took two pills from it.

”You...”

The young man hadn’t finished his sentence when he was suddenly yanked, stumbling and hitting the ship’s railing behind him.

The silver he had tucked in his coat pocket spilled out, with several pieces slipping through the railing gaps and falling into the sea.

The young man’s arm went numb from the impact, causing him to release the cobra, which plunged into the sea.

Chuzheng gripped the young man’s neck, rendering him immobile.

”Who are you really!”

”What’s it to you?” Chuzheng’s fingers tightened, ”Your life is in my hands now.”

The young man: ”...”

The young man’s pupils contracted, his difficulty breathing from the lack of oxygen made his face redder: ”Aren’t you afraid someone will see? People can come by at any time!”

”Thanks for the reminder,” Chuzheng said very politely, ”But, if I tell others you let me up here, what do you think would happen?”

”...” The young man looked disgruntled, ”Who would believe you?”

Chuzheng glanced at the scattered silver on the ground.

The young man: ”...”

Crap!

Chuzheng produced some silver, placing it in the young man’s hands, ”If you think this isn’t persuasive enough, I have more.”

The young man: ”...”

-

The young man was Mi Yun, the Second Island Master’s brother.

They didn’t have a good relationship... although it was only on his part, the Second Island Master still cared a lot about him.

Mi Yun always liked to sell all sorts of odd things to people, and if he weren’t the Second Island Master’s brother, he would have been beaten and fed to the fish long ago.

So, when threatened by Chuzheng and with so much silver involved, he really didn’t know what to say.

After all, he really hadn’t seen this woman before... she definitely wasn’t from this ship!

It wasn’t that he feared being discovered, but rather being punished.

Of course, Mi Yun was also a bit of a coward...

Mi Yun: ”What exactly do you want? Who are you? Sneaking onto our ship, what’s your plot?”

Chuzheng said blandly, ”I don’t want anything.” Just want to squander some money.

”You don’t want anything, and yet you came onto our ship? Sightseeing?”

”I was on this ship to begin with.”

The young man retorted angrily, ”That’s nonsense!”

”...” I didn’t!

Why does nobody believe the truth?

”Believe it or not.”

Mi Yun: ”...”

Mi Yun stared at Chuzheng’s serious face, unable to detect any signs of lying, but...

Mi Yun thought he should first care about his current situation: ”What do you plan to do with me?”

Chuzheng looked down at the sea, consulting Mi Yun for his opinion: ”How about tossing you overboard?”

Mi Yun: ”I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

Chuzheng: ”Eliminating traces is quite good.”

Mi Yun: ”...”

Self-preservation made Mi Yun lower his head: ”Let’s pretend we haven’t met!! You go your way, I’ll go mine!”

Chuzheng turned her head: ”Why do you get the main road?”

Mi Yun: ”????”

Is that the point?

Mi Yun, able to bend and adapt: ”Then you take the main road, I’ll take the narrow path, okay!” What’s the problem here?

”How do I know you won’t report on me?”

”If I report on you... I’ll be your grandson!”

”Oh.”

Mi Yun became anxious: ”You don’t believe me?” This woman wouldn’t actually throw him overboard, would she?

If he fell down there, would he even survive?

Chuzheng: ”We just met, why would I trust you?”

Mi Yun: ”...”

Mi Yun seemed to see his tragic end being thrown overboard.

”I’m telling you, don’t go too far. If I call for people, you won’t get away with it either!” The young man suddenly said smugly, ”No matter what, I am one of us. Even if they believe your nonsense, at most I’ll get punished, but for you, it’s different.”
