'I dropped it from my collection. Forget it, I won't say anything else.'
Seclusion
Roguetown was located not far from the Eastern Sea's Daoxuan Mountain. It was the closest supply town to the Great Sea Route.
Because he wanted to live among ordinary people, he could not wear his original clothes. His hairstyle was no longer short, but longer.
Meng Le stood in the square of Roguetown, wearing a pair of cropped jeans. Since Meng Le was the one who went out to fight every time, Kurulu was not wanted, so she did not change her clothes. She was still wearing a pink kimono, and the big bug hid its soft feet in its shell and lay on Kurulu's head.
Meng Le looked around, waved his hand, and said to the two kids,""That one."
Meng Le pointed at a two-story restaurant. Meng Le was planning to buy it and open a teahouse. This was because the teahouse was the easiest job, and Meng Le had no intention of earning money from it.
It was not the era of the great pirates yet. Although this was the closest place to the great sea route, there were not many people moving around. The World Government had stationed troops here and was the nominal manager. However, after nightfall, it was still very chaotic here.
" Whoa!" Just as she pushed open the door and was about to enter, she smelled the stench of sweat and alcohol mixed together. Meng Le took a step back and fanned himself. He thought for a moment and asked Kurulu and Dachong to wait for him outside.
Meng Le endured the strange smell and sound and came to the bar counter. He threw a gold coin to the bartender and said,"Go and call your boss over."
Bar picked up the gold coin and said to him,"Why are you looking for me?"
Meng Le looked at him in surprise. The boss was dressed like a waiter, and most importantly, he was too young. He was probably about the same age as Meng Le.
The boss shrugged." Unfortunately, I'm the boss here. What's the matter?"”
There were a few drunk people beside him, laughing and laughing as they surrounded him to confirm his identity. Meng Le avoided a few hands that wanted to pat his shoulder in disgust and said to the boss,"Alright, since you're the boss, I want to ask you how much this hotel is worth. I want to buy it."
The boss's eyes lit up and he said happily,"Haha, I can finally sell the tavern and go out to sea."”
"What, can't I go out to sea if I don't sell it?”Meng Le sat on the stool and looked at the boss with interest.
The boss skillfully opened a bottle of wine and poured a glass for Meng Le.
"Here you go." He extended his right hand to Meng Le.
"This shop was opened by my father. He passed away a few years ago. Before he died, he told me to take good care of this shop. However, my dream is to go out to sea and be a pirate.”The boss said angrily. He poured himself a glass of wine and took a sip. He sighed and said,"Unfortunately, although this shop's business is average, if it closes down, I can go out to sea. After all, I have to abide by my father's last wish. However, if you want to buy a hotel, I can still go out to sea. I want to find a good boss for this hotel.”
"Since you want to sell it, why haven't you sold it for so many years?" Meng Le asked curiously.”
The boss looked at Meng Le as if he was an idiot and said,""The most famous place in the East China Sea is Roguetown. Roguetown is most famous for Roger. Now, many people in Roguetown are looking for opportunities to go out to sea.”
" Alright, alright." Meng Le couldn't stand his gaze. Even if he looked down on her, he should look down on her after the transaction. Meng Le complained in her heart.
"I'll come to trade the shop tomorrow morning. I'll give you the money first.”Meng Le threw a bag of gold coins on the table, waved his hand and left.
Before she even left the restaurant, she heard the boss say that he had sold the hotel and that he was rich. He wanted to treat everyone to a drink. Meng Le smiled and shook his head. How much of a scam was this son of his?
Bringing the two little ones back to the shore, Kurulu revealed his left wrist. There was a wooden bracelet on his wrist. He took off the bracelet and threw it into the sea.
The bracelet swelled up in the wind, and when it landed on the sea, it had turned into the Demon Forest. This was Kurulu's fruit ability.
After reducing the size of the Demon Forest, he could change part of its shape so that it could attach itself to Kurulu. However, every time it shrank, a sealed room would be built in the ship and filled with seawater for the Sun Tree Eve to survive.
The next morning, Meng Le and the others arrived at the entrance of the hotel. The former boss was no longer dressed like a bartender. Instead, he was wearing a short jacket and carrying a bag. When he saw Meng Le, he threw him a bunch of keys and waved his hand before running away.
Meng Le and the others opened the door and saw that it was a mess inside. There were basically not many good tables and chairs. Kurulu carried the big worm on his head and carefully avoided the obstacles before running to the bar counter. With a series of clanking sounds, he found an unopened bottle of wine and shouted at Meng Le,"Master, master, let's drink. I haven't drunk with Big Insect yet.”
Meng Le had drunk wine before, but she didn't like it. Kululu was obviously in her loli form. Although the big bug was considered an adult in the phone bug world, Meng Le still felt that it was strange for a pet to drink.
"Hey, can you two not get drunk?”Meng Le said worriedly.
"It's okay, Master. The two of us are just trying it.”Before he could finish, Kurulu had already opened the lid and the two little fellows began to drink inside.
Meng Le ignored the two of them and walked up the stairs to the second floor. What she saw was a mess. Meng Le felt that the former boss had run away without saying goodbye for a reason. This kind of hygiene would probably deduct some money.
There were a total of five rooms upstairs, a large living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. The rest were storage units for wine, but there were only broken wine bottles left. It was about 300 square meters upstairs and 300 square meters downstairs. Meng Le, who had just finished his inspection, heard a commotion downstairs.
When he came down, he saw that the two little fellows had drunk too much.
Kululu's left face was on the bar counter, and he chuckled from time to time, like a catfish on a chopping board.
The big insect stood on her right cheek, or perhaps it was lying on Kurulu's right cheek, and shouted,""Master, there's a call! Master, pick up the call! Hello, Master isn't here."
These two little fellows were not good at drinking. The two of them had half a bottle of wine, and one of them only knew how to smile like an idiot when he drank too much. The other one was even more of an idiot after drinking too much. Why did he have to hurry up and pick it up? This little thing with inflexible legs. Meng Le complained in her heart.
Seeing that the two of them had drunk too much, they couldn't work today. The Demon Forest was still on Kurulu's wrist. Meng Le took the two little fellows upstairs and found a place to put them down. Then, he slowly cultivated.
A few hours later, the two little fellows slowly recovered. Kurulu patted his head hard and said,"Master, my head hurts."
Meng Le, who had been woken up, rolled her eyes at her and said,"If you can't drink it, then don't drink it. It must be uncomfortable.”
Big Insect opened its eyes wide and said to Meng Le,""Master, I think someone called you just now.”
" Hehe," Meng Le said expressionlessly.
Big Insect also climbed onto Kululu's head awkwardly. Kululu grabbed Big Insect and pinned him on the head, saying to Meng Le,""Master, when are we going to clean up this store?”
Meng Le looked around and said,"This shop, tear it down and rebuild it." The previous boss's taste was too low, and his style was too inferior.”
"Then what should we do?" Kululu looked around and obviously agreed with Meng Le.
"The teahouse on the first floor, the bedroom and bathroom on the second floor. The rest of the place will be converted into a high-end teahouse. The roof will be made into a platform with seats on it as an open-air teahouse.”Meng Le expressed her expectations for the future of the teahouse.
Hearing this, the big insect rolled its eyes.
"Master, after all, this is a teahouse. Even if the environment is different, a cup of tea will still be sold for as much as it should be. The pirates were unreasonable, and the navy was also a problem.”
Meng Le thought for a moment and realized that what Big Insect said made sense. The pirates were still fine. If it really didn't work, they could just kill them. If the navy came, it would be a big problem. Meng Le only changed her hairstyle and clothes. Other than that, there were not many changes. Although they had robbed the navy before, they had never killed a navy before, so they probably wouldn't rush up without thinking.
"Yes... Then let's do it like this. Let's do it like before. However, the two of you have to give me the ability to learn. During this period of time, if anyone wants to go to the second floor, they have to rely on their own strength. " As for the tables and chairs on the roof, they're made of Sea Tower Stone and Devil Tree Satan. If you want to enter our store, you need to have some courage and strength.”Meng Le was obviously proud when she said the last part.
Kululu and Da Chong were both depressed. A long time ago, Meng Le had asked the two of them to learn the domineering and naval six styles. However, one of them claimed that the fruit's ability had not been fully developed, and the other claimed that his brain capacity was insufficient, so they both rejected it. Since Meng Le still had to spend time cultivating, he didn't have the time to pay attention to the two of them. Now that Meng Le had even opened a shop, the two of them would definitely be taught a lesson.
Lunch was casually eaten on the second floor. The ingredients were taken out from the boat by Kurulu. She controlled the wooden stick to send the ingredients out of the range of the package, and the ingredients instantly returned to their original state.
'This must be the legendary storage bracelet,' Meng Le thought as he ate.
In the afternoon, Meng Le informed his neighbors, then set up a barrier and burned down the house. There was a navy patrol station nearby. When they saw the fire, the navy quickly came over to check. Later, they learned that Meng Le was going to burn it down and rebuild it, so they naturally dispersed.
A few days later, a building that was different from the one in One Piece appeared in the middle of the square. Although it was still a two-story building, each floor was four meters tall. It was considered a high-rise building in this area.
The overall material was wood, but it was very thick. After all, the quality could not compare to the Demon Tree Satan, so he had to start with quantity. There were no stairs from the first floor to the second floor, and there were no stairs from the second floor to the rooftop. There was only a hole with a radius of three meters as a place to go up and down.
At the entrance of the first floor, there was a counter with the function of cashier and tea making. The space saved was for tables and chairs.
Half of the second floor was used to build a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. When they were on the ship, Kurulu could sleep on a wooden plank. However, he could not do it now. The space-type fruit was quite special. It could not store him. Once it was stored, it would lose its effect. Wherever the big bug went, the shell would follow. There was no problem with the bedroom. Therefore, under Kurulu's strong request, the three of them shared a bedroom with a big bed, a small bed, and a table.
The tables and chairs on the second floor were much fewer than on the first floor, and it looked even more spacious. The platform was surrounded by a fence that was more than a meter high. The stone table and the Demon Tree Satan's stool were scattered there.
As for the name of the teahouse, Kululu and Big Insect were very interested. On the contrary, Meng Le did not suggest it. In the end, the two of them negotiated fiercely and amicably, and came up with a name with a cross-generation significance: At the Kucong Teahouse.
Meng Le put up the signboard of the teahouse between the first and second floor. Worm, worm, worm, you should be crying poor. Meng Le was very worried about their ability to come up with names.
"You have to be careful when you talk to others in the future. As long as you're in this world, you can't say anything that goes beyond the scope of this world.”Meng Le said sternly to the two of them.
" Alright, Master." X2.
The Kucong Teahouse, which had been renovated for more than half a month, opened for business without any publicity.
