belated auction item
One day later, Wu Peng knocked on the door of the dormitory.
"It's about to start, will you go?"
Zuo Lan asked through the door: "Are you available today?"
"I don't know. If you don't want to go, forget it. I'll go there myself."
"Wait a minute, it's coming."
There were some noises in the dormitory, like something was colliding.
When Zuo Lan opened the door, his eyes were flashed by the bright light from the warehouse. He closed his eyes and slowly adapted to the light.
Wu Peng obviously felt that something was wrong with Zuo Lan's state. He shook his head and walked in front.
The two went to the auction site. At this time, there were not many people on site. A scattered group of people discussed the news that came back yesterday.
There were three collectors here who bought several bottles of wine a few days ago. These three were already familiar with Wu Peng and greeted each other.
One of them looked behind Zuo Lan and asked, "Isn't your lover here?"
In the eyes of outsiders, the man and woman are inseparable and can easily become lovers.
Zuo Lan shook his head and replied: "She got off the boat."
"That's it."
The collector did not ask any more questions, but became more interested and returned to the topic they had talked about before.
"Everyone, I think this war is a good opportunity to make a fortune. To be honest, I have a friend who is handling a batch of arms. This batch of arms should be popular."
Another collector squinted his eyes behind the mask, nodded after thinking for a while, and echoed: "It's a good idea, but I also have a different opinion. I think food will become a scarce commodity, and it is also a good idea to collect food in large quantities."
choice.”
The collector who spoke first had a cheerful face and started to argue with his fellow travelers.
"It depends on how long this war will last. In my opinion, the reserves of both countries are very rich, and there is no problem in supporting it for one or two years. Our priority should be the market of Dalue
, no matter what the final result is, the small country of Dalue is bound to suffer a wave of baptism."
"That's right, in the foreseeable future, Dalue may not be in ruins one day. Who allowed them to have so many gold mines?"
"It's useless to say more. Everyone, based on your speculations about these two countries, who will win the final victory?"
"Taihui."
"Taihui."
Everyone expressed their own opinions, and these opinions were surprisingly consistent. Once they came to a conclusion, they would privately figure out how to use the war to make money, and which country to lend money to if the war lasted for a long time.
After all, the final treatment of victorious and defeated countries is different. No one will be willing to lend money to a country that is destined to fail.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the war really breaks out. If it is just a little friction, it will be boring.
Zuo Lan listened to their conversation, he was not interested in these words at all.
He continued to wait at the scene for more than ten minutes. These ten minutes were very long for him. He couldn't wait any longer. He faced Wu Peng and said, "I'm going back first."
Wu Peng was chatting with those people and was a little disappointed when he heard the news that Zuo Lan was going back to live in a small house.
"Okay, I'll let you know when there's news."
He could feel that Zuo Lan was a little depressed today.
After leaving the auction, Zuo Lan boarded the deck and saw the seagulls flying in the sky, listened to the sound of the waves, and the coast not far away.
The ship stopped firmly, and the huge anchor was dropped on the seabed below, opening a scar.
The gondola on the ship's side was in operation. The boatswain and two sailors boarded the ship, followed by a tall man wearing tattered fishermen's clothing.
The sailors took the man away. The boatswain slowly walked to Zuo Lan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the man has been delivered. He will probably be in the car by now."
Zuo Lan looked at the coast blankly. This place seemed familiar. He asked the boatswain: "Where is this place?"
"We took a trip on the sea. From here to the west, we can see your royal capital in eight days at most."
"Well, that's really bad luck."
"Bad luck?"
The boatswain was puzzled, but he quickly realized it. He smiled and said: "Did you have a quarrel? I saw that she felt quite uncomfortable when she left. But don't worry, I still know the woman very well. When you get off the boat, I will buy you some good things."
Just go back and give advice. As someone who has been through this, I still have to tell you that as a man, you must learn to be tolerant and not follow your own temper, as it will hurt the hearts of ladies."
Zuo Lan looked at the coast quietly, and he finally remembered that the Giant Dolphin sank here.
The two chatted for a few more words. Zuo Lan had enough of the seawater-scented air, and then returned to the dormitory in the warehouse dejectedly.
Recently, he has been struggling with his relationship with Na Zhi, and he also understands that a woman who is engaged cannot be touched, but love is something that is hard to resist.
The last straw that prompted him to make up his mind were those words from Wu Peng.
Like a scale, there is enough weight to change the balance on the side you let go of.
In the next few days, Wu Peng kept wanting to chat with Zuo Lan, but every time he walked to the door of the dormitory, he gave up.
Finally one day, Wu Peng knocked on the door of the dormitory again, his tone was extremely anxious.
"Here's what we need!"
There was silence in the dormitory, without any sound. This strange silence surprised Wu Peng.
Zuo Lan hasn't been out for several days. Could it be that there was some accident?
He quickly opened the door of the dormitory. It was pitch dark inside the dormitory, without any light. If it hadn't been for the light from the warehouse, he wouldn't have been able to see anything.
"Zuo Lan?"
"I am here."
Zuo Lan's weak voice was very abrupt in the quiet dormitory.
Wu Peng looked carefully and finally saw the haggard man in front of the table.
Zuo Lan turned the dormitory into a darkroom, and the developed photos were hung above the bed.
These photos were all taken by Na Zhi. Zuo Lan looked at each photo with a smile and said sarcastically: "My photography skills are really bad."
These photos include the sea at the bow of the ship, blurry clouds in the sky, a small fish jumping on the deck, and Zuo Lan and Wu Peng with red faces in the dormitory.
Wu Peng was shocked by what he saw. He took Zuo Lan's arm and said, "You can't go on like this. Go out for some air and follow me to the auction. Let's take care of that damn ship today."
Take it down and go back to the shore to find her."
After Zuo Lan was silent for a while, he nodded reluctantly. He looked at the photo hanging by the bedside and put on a mask for himself.
She had already reached the door of the dormitory, and Zuo Lan still asked hesitantly: "Do I still have a chance? I have hurt her several times."
After hearing this question, Wu Peng stopped moving forward. He regretted that he had gone to educate this fragile man.
He turned around, jumped up and slapped Zuo Lan.
"If she doesn't agree, you stand outside her house and wait for her to agree. If those old nobles say something unpleasant, I will sew their mouths shut. But now, you have to be serious, let's see today
Got it. Got it? You loser!"
Zuo Lan's mask flew away with this slap, and he picked it up on the ground with a firm look in his eyes.
"Then, let's go."
He put on his mask and followed Wu Peng out of the warehouse.
During the auction, the captain signaled everyone to be quiet. Next to the captain, stood a man wearing a Taihui navy uniform. The man stood tall and looked at the people in the auction proudly.
Wu Peng pointed at this man and whispered: "That's him. It is said that he was once the captain of the Lucky Princess."
Zuo Lan nodded.
After the auction calmed down, the captain introduced this special auction item: "Everyone, let's auction something else today, one person."
There were a few laughs at the auction.
The captain added: "You may have heard that our captain wants to get his ship back, but he needs someone to provide him with some help."
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not quite understanding what it meant.
The captain thought about the words. He really couldn't think of any suitable words, so he could only tell the truth.
"There is a naval memorial hall in Taihui Country, and a cruiser is used as an exhibit. If you are interested, you can take photos of our captain's information, and the two parties will cooperate to steal the battleship. However, after the incident is completed, the battleship must
It must be under the command of the captain."
Chapter completed!
