Black Feather stood on the side of the ship, looking down at the fat man below who was beaten with a bruised nose and face, and thought to himself: "I also need to cultivate my own confidants on the Giant Shark, and this little fat man in front of me may be able to be used by me."
Thinking of this, the corners of Kuroyu's mouth raised slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
Black Feather walked steadily from the towering ship building to the spacious deck, and came to the pirates who were scolding the newcomers.
Black Feather said in a low voice: "Okay, let's stop fighting now. You first bring these new people into the cabin and settle them down, and then leave this little fat guy behind."
After hearing these words, the pirates who were about to continue teaching the little fat man immediately put away their fierce expressions and became respectful.
The pirates agreed while directing several other ordinary sailors to quickly bring these newcomers into the cabin.
At this moment, the little fat man lying on the ground and wailing in pain also noticed the change in the surrounding atmosphere. He struggled to support his body with both hands, and his round belly looked a little funny due to the exertion.
He looked at Black Feather, a trace of doubt and fear flashed in his eyes.
"Um...are you the boss on this ship?" the little fat man asked cautiously.
Perhaps the experience of being beaten just now made his arrogance disappear completely. At this moment, he spoke with an obvious sense of flattery.
However, what he didn't know was that although Darian voss was only sixteen years old, he had already gone through the test of life and death, and exuded a fierce aura. This aura was enough to intimidate this pampered young master.
"What's your name?" Black Feather asked.
The little fat man raised his head, with a flattering smile on his plump face: "My name is Hoshino Yui."
...
Three days passed quietly, and a new batch of new people had begun to work. Due to the scarcity of people, everyone was doing complicated work.
This made the newcomers miserable, but when they thought about someone who was thrown directly into the sea to feed the fish because of laziness, they couldn't help but shudder, so they could only grit their teeth and persevere.
After all, no one wants to be the one thrown into the sea to feed the fishes!
In the restaurant, Kuroyu was watching the fat little man in front of him enjoying his meal.
"Are you sure this person is only 12 years old?" Black Feather asked the pirates who were counting the number of people on the side.
"Sir, I really didn't lie to you. I didn't know he was so good at eating!" The pirate looked at the mountains of plates in front of him and felt like crying.
Kuroba looked at the grease stains on the other side's mouth and ate another plate of fried noodles. He thought to himself: "This Hoshino Yum's appetite is almost as big as that of seven or eight adults."
The little fat man ignored the strange looks in their eyes and shouted again: "Chef, another plate of pasta!"
Black Feather said at this time: "Okay, can you tell me what you think now?"
Hoshino Yui touched his round belly, looking satisfied with a smile, but his mind was spinning rapidly at the moment.
"If I don't answer well, I'll probably have to go back to the hard work again."
When Yu Hoshino thought of the scene where he was falling apart a few days ago, he didn't want to experience it a second time.
Just when Kuroba was getting impatient after waiting, Hoshino Yum said: "Sir, do you know what is the most expensive thing?"
Black Feather said casually: "Quasi-god cub? A powerful elf, a precious treasure prop?"
Kuroyu guessed a lot of things, but Hoshino Yui shook his head and denied them all.
"The most expensive thing in the world must have one characteristic, and that is scarcity!" Hoshino Yumikami lowered his voice mysteriously, with a cunning light shining in his eyes.
Darian voss was speechless for a moment after hearing this, muttering to himself: "Isn't this nonsense? Who doesn't know that quasi-gods are scarce?"
He couldn't help but look at Hoshino Yui speechlessly, but he still listened patiently.
"The scarcity here does not refer to scarcity in a broad sense, but to scarcity for a certain person or a certain group." Hoshino Yumi continued to explain, his tone becoming more and more serious.
"For example, the elderly who are terminally ill, for them, youth and health are scarce."
"Another example is a lovelorn person who cannot find love. For them, mutual love is scarce."
"In the history of the league, most rich people have made their fortunes by relying on the scarce things of a certain group of people. In the future, I am destined to become a rich man..."
The more Hoshino Yui talked, the more excited he became, and a confident smile actually appeared on his chubby little face.
Kuroyu just listened to his story quietly, from being indifferent at the beginning to looking solemn at the end.
For a whole afternoon, the two of them sat in the corner of the restaurant discussing it, and they didn't wake up until dinner time.
"This little fat guy is indeed a talent. He is quite talented in business. Maybe he can become a business giant in the future!" Darian voss thought to himself.
As a time traveler, Kuroyu admits that the magical power of elves in this world is indeed powerful, but money and economy cannot be underestimated.
If you can build a business empire in the future, you can influence the development of a city or even an entire region!
Black Feather looked at the little fat man with increasingly intense eyes, as if he had discovered a treasure.
From that day on, the pirates on the Giant Shark discovered that Black Feather was often followed by a fat man, and whether it was receiving people or selling energy cubes, it was almost always the fat man who took the lead.
Kuroba seemed to regard him as a spokesperson, and Hoshino Yui, a fat little guy, also jumped from a bullied newcomer to a prominent figure on the ship.
...
"Hehe!!"
The lobster soldier excitedly waved its sharp claws, his eyes focused and sharp.
Every time he swung his claws, he accurately caught the bubbles flying in the air and broke them one by one.
This game is both entertainment and a daily training project for it.
As a lobster soldier, its claws are naturally its most proud weapon.
Darian voss knew this very well, so he specially designed such a training method to help the lobster soldier better master and use its claw skills.
Through this repeated practice, the reaction speed and accuracy of the lobster soldier have been significantly improved.
"The lobster soldier did a good job. This time, more than 20 bubbles in the air were all broken before they landed!" Darian voss couldn't help but exclaimed, and threw out an energy cube to restore physical strength as a reward.
The lobster soldier was quick-eyed and quick-handed, quickly caught the energy cube, and then put it into his mouth without hesitation to chew, enjoying this reward from his master, and his heart was full of joy.
Seeing the satisfied look of the lobster soldier, Darian voss couldn't help laughing: "Haha, you really never make mistakes when it comes to receiving food."
Obviously, he was very satisfied with the performance of the lobster soldier.
During this period of time, Darian voss's errands were all handed over to Xingye Yumiko, which gave him more time to use freely.
During this extra free time, Darian voss chose to use it to study various books in depth, or to improve his proficiency in making energy blocks.
Nowadays, Darian voss is making rapid progress every day!
