Chapter 72 Binx's Wine
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Da also saw Gragas and his several trucks at the door of the tavern. It seemed that he was indeed going to deliver goods nearby, and the little wine in his store could only be said to be delivered by the way.
"Hahaha, here I come, brother Tatsuya!" The bearded Gragas still looked enthusiastic and generous.
"I've been waiting for you for a while. It looks like there's some big business going on." Zhang Da also pointed to several fully loaded trucks.
"This is indeed a good business." Gragas greeted the workers with a smile, "Don't be in a daze, hurry up and unload the goods!"
Zhang Da also casually asked, "Is there a new pub opening nearby? They ordered so much wine at once."
Gragas laughed and said, "Haha, it was an order from a passing ship. I can't say for sure who it was, but you don't have to worry about someone stealing your business."
It's hard to say who he is, isn't it the same as saying that he is nothing more than a pirate? Zhang Da also whispered: "You dare to do such a business, aren't you afraid of losing both your money and your life?"
"Hehe, since I dare to do it, I must be confident." Gragas patted his round belly, "My body is not just the result of drinking."
Zhang Da also looked at his sturdy limbs and sturdy body and nodded. It was estimated that this was not the first time he had traded with pirates. "Then you should be more careful."
Gragas grinned: "Why doesn't the young man seem to be opposed to this kind of business?"
Zhang Da thought about it and said, "I'm just the owner of a tavern, I can't care so much. Besides, even if they are customers in my tavern, there might be such people. If they don't make trouble and don't sign up themselves, I won't be able to recognize their identities."
"It's good that you can think positively. This world... Never mind, let's not talk about it anymore. Come and see the good wine I brought you." Gragas found two bottles of wine from the car he was riding in and put them in a gift box.
"This is Captain Morgan, a type of rum from the West Sea. It's not expensive, but it's rare in the Grand Line, so it's perfect as a gift. Because this kind of rum is loved by sailors and pirates in the West Sea, it can also be called 'Binx's Wine'."
"Huh? Is this the kind of wine that Binx's fine wine refers to?" Zhang Da was also surprised. Most people who have watched One Piece must have been impressed by the song "Binx's Fine Wine", but there seems to be no consensus on what kind of wine Binx's fine wine refers to.
"That's right. After all, the famous song, like this wine, originated from the West Sea. It can be called the Sailor's Song or the Pirate's Song. It symbolizes adventure, hope, and the heroism of men on the sea." Gragas explained:
The so-called Binx wine in the song does not refer to any specific kind of wine. On the sea, any wine that can make sailors gather together and sing and dance can be called Binx. "
"Oh~ I've learned a lot." Zhang Da also accepted two bottles of wine, one bottle costing 50,000 Baileys. It seemed very expensive but also not very expensive. It was estimated that most of it was the transportation cost.
"No, I'm the one who has gained more experience..." Gragas stared blankly at the moving wine boxes inside, forgetting to count the bills in his hand.
He already knew that Altria, she was the tavern's guard, so it was not surprising that she could carry three boxes of wine.
The relatively tall girl was said to be a newly hired waitress, and it was acceptable for her to carry three boxes of wine effortlessly .
But what happened to the cat? When he came last time, he was already shaky even after carrying only one box. How come he had to carry three boxes this time?
"Hey, does your cat really not need any help?" Gragas asked. Although it had already been sold, he would still feel sad if so much good wine was smashed in front of him.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Zhang Da also took a look. Tom moved three boxes because the other two people each moved three boxes, and he felt that he couldn't be out of the group, so he also moved three boxes.
Although Tom's legs were shaking, and the three boxes were shaking and might fall at any time, and he could even hear the sound of wine bottles colliding gently inside the boxes, he still walked into the door safely and stumbled towards the wine cellar.
Zhang Da also believed in Tom. Even if the box above fell down, Tom would find a way to catch it with various parts of his body.
After the payment and delivery were settled, Zhang Da also watched Gragas's convoy go away and murmured, "That direction is heading straight to the lawless area. I hope everyone is okay."
Zhang Da also carried the last box of wine back to the tavern and closed the door. He would wait for Uncle Goodman to take a day off in two days and then go to see them with gifts.
"This box happens to contain red wine, Tom. How about making some red wine fried steak tonight? I remember we bought beef." Zhang Da also opened the box and took out a bottle of red wine.
Tom made an OK sign, then stretched out his hand and rubbed his fingers together, as if counting money.
Zhang Da also asked, "Want money?"
Tom nodded, gnashing his teeth.
"Okay." At noon, he was so busy enjoying the elephant tuna that he didn't even organize the money. Zhang Da also spread two sheets of newspaper on the table and poured out all the banknotes, a total of more than 56 million.
Most of them are bundled together into one million-dollar stack. Fifty or sixty stacks of banknotes piled together randomly are quite visually impactful.
Zhang Da was still relatively calm. After all, he had held the money for so long that he had some immunity to it.
Altria was also quite calm, but she was a little drooling - she was not someone who would be blinded by money, but the pile of money on the table kept , chicken legs, cakes, chocolates...
Rui Mengmeng was a little excited. She had never seen so much money in her life. In the past two days, she had some understanding of Bailey's purchasing power. She knew that this amount of money was already a lot for ordinary people.
Tom was even more direct. He held his hands to his heart, his eyes popped out of their sockets, turned into the shape of Bailey and then shrank back, then he suddenly jumped into the pile of money and rubbed it.
Zhang Da also thought about it and said, "Most of this money is the income from killing that pirate group today. How about we split it equally?"
When Tom heard this, he happily hugged his quarter and ran upstairs.
Altria shook her head, "I'll forget it. You're the one who pays whenever we go out to buy things, Tatsuya."
Rui Mengmeng also said: "Me...me too, I don't have much money to spend normally, and my salary is already very high."
"That being said... never mind, just keep it with me for now." Zhang Da also picked up two stacks of banknotes and handed them to Altria and Rui Mengmeng, "You should carry some money with you, as you may need it in an emergency."
Zhang Da also put the rest into the rice cooker and put it back into the inventory.
This rice cooker is a bit small, and it's a bit difficult to put everything in. I'll have to use a different container next time.
Well, it's decided, let's buy a new refrigerator and use Tom's big refrigerator to store the money.
