So, heres the problem. How should we get there?

You see, there seems to be a ferry over there.

At the mention, everyone looked in the direction and saw a simple pier on the sh.o.r.e, with several single-masted sailboats moored there.

Two large signs were erected on the pier. The first one was painted with words:

Ferry service to the Big Boss Islanders trading event! Exclusive authorization!

The second sign read:

Luxurious seats, breathtaking sea view, offering you a homely service!

They exchanged glances and approached the pier with their respective armies.

I_Love_Black_Stockings stood before the pier and saw people approaching. Her eyes brightened, and she hurriedly greeted them.

Are you all attending the Big Boss Islanders trading event and need to go to the New Moon?

Thats right Can we take your boat to get there?

Upon hearing this, I_Love_Black_Stockings beamed with enthusiasm. Of course! 1 have obtained exclusive authorization from the Big Boss Islander. Only my s.h.i.+p can approach and board the New Moon.

If any unfamiliar vessels dare to get too close, they will be treated as enemies and sent to the bottom of the sea. So, if you wish to partic.i.p.ate in the trading event, dont waste any time and make sure to register with me!

Several players looked at each other, and one of them asked, How much is the fare per person?

I_Love_Black_Stockings raised five fingers of her right hand and said with a smile, Five gold coins for a round trip, and I promise no deceit.

Five gold coins? You might as well go and rob! The players became impatient.

Five gold coins per person, and if they brought their armies, the fare would easily exceed a hundred gold coins in no time.

Its already very cheap! I_Love_Black_Stockings wore a sly smile on her face. Besides, the Big Boss Islanders s.h.i.+p is extremely safe. The Big Boss Islander said that partic.i.p.ants can only bring a few guards aboard, so its not even a few dozen gold coins for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Moreover, think about it, this trading event is rare. So many players from King Kong Island gathered together without fighting, allowing for peaceful transactions and the exchange of resources each one needs.

If you dont go, but your opponents do, and they become stronger after the exchange of resources, then hehe, you will be in a pa.s.sive position.

I_Love_Black_Stockings used enticing and instigating words, causing these players to instantly feel that if they didnt go, they would be at a disadvantage.

After a moment of hesitation, they exchanged glances and gritted their teeth, taking out the gold coins. Youre quite cunning! Hurry and take us over!

I_Love_Black_Stockings received the gold coins and weighed them in her hand, then smiled contentedly, gesturing for them to come aboard. Please follow me this way, guests!

When the players boarded the sailboat, they realized they had been tricked.

The so-called luxurious seats and breathtaking sea view were all false advertis.e.m.e.nts.

The not-so-s.p.a.cious deck was filled with rows of small wooden stools, which were touted as luxurious seats. As for the breathtaking sea view, it was merely the open ocean outside the deck.

But fortunately, after half of the players boarded the s.h.i.+p, it did transport them to the New Moon, and the patrolling wars.h.i.+ps did not attack, which allowed them to relax.

Ji Chen stood at the bow of the s.h.i.+p, watching I_Love_Black_Stockings boat shuttle back and forth between the sh.o.r.e and the New Moon, and couldnt help but smile wryly.

She really had a keen sense of business, finding a way to make money like this.

Charging five gold coins per person, and players could bring up to four guards, which meant they would pay twenty-five gold coins at most.

Some players attending the trading event had hundreds of people with them, along with their guards, totaling hundreds of people.

Doing the math, l_Love_Black_Stockings could easily earn thousands of gold coins, with almost zero costs.

It was much more profitable than selling resources!

What a business genius she was!

By noon, many players had boarded the New Moon, but they were restricted to the first deck, as the other decks were blocked by numerous armies, not allowing anyone to enter.

Initially, some curious players wanted to sneak a peek at other areas of the New Moon, but when they saw the fierce and powerful Naga warriors, Dragon Blood Murlocs, and Pure Water Sea Pixies blocking various pa.s.sages and doors, they all retreated.

They could sense that if they forced their way in, they would really be killed by these troops.

On the first deck.

Players shouted to each other, looking for buyers and sellers.

Some wanted to sell their idle resources, materials, and military recruitment camp cores in exchange for gold coins or other resources.

Others roamed around like they were in a market, searching for things that piqued their interest.

Here, thanks to Ji Chens own powerful presence, most of them let go of their vigilance towards each other on the island and conducted their trades with peace of mind.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen also felt relieved.

At least no reckless individuals dared to cause trouble; everything was moving in the right direction.

This made him consider imitating I_Love_Black_Stockings approach; every player wanting to board the s.h.i.+p for the trading event would have to buy a ticket.

This way, he could earn a considerable amount of gold coins without any effort. Wouldnt that be delightful?

Being a banker and taking a cut would also bring in some money!

Because hardly any players had seen Ji Chens real appearance, he walked on the deck without anyone recognizing him as the Islander. At most, they felt he looked handsome and charismatic.

Many female players approached him with enthusiasm, trying to develop some personal relations.h.i.+ps.

However, Ji Chen firmly rejected them.

He was a person of integrity and would never involve himself in such matters (clears throat)!

Back in the cabin, Ji Chen saw I_Love_Black_Stockings waiting there, and her face lit up when she saw him return.

Boss, I hit the jackpot this time! Its only the first day, and Ive already earned over three thousand gold coins. Its an absolute windfall! And when more people come on the second and third days, wont I make even more? Becoming a millionaire is not just a dream!!

She spoke with excitement, feeling that her life had become smooth sailing.

Ji Chen smiled and shook his head, then adopted a stern expression, asking, Have you completed the task 1 a.s.signed to you?

Seeing his serious demeanor, I_Love_Black_Stockings also became serious and nodded, saying, Boss, I found several players who are willing to sell precious treasures, various military recruitment camp cores, and rare resources like Mithril and Gold. They all said that they would prioritize trading with you if the price is right!

Ji Chen nodded in approval. Good, call them in now.

Sure thing! Ill go get them right away!

I_Love_Black_Stockings hurriedly left the cabin, eager to help Ji Chen with anything he needed. After all, following such a big boss had many benefits, and even a little favor from him would fill her belly.

For instance, transporting players this time was only possible with Ji Chens consent. Otherwise, how could those patrolling and guarding wars.h.i.+ps allow her boat to approach?

Soon, after about ten minutes, l_Love_Black_Stockings returned with three players.

They looked somewhat reserved but also curious, wanting to see what the legendary Islander looked like.

When they saw Ji Chens appearance, they were immediately astonished.

Among them, the only female player blushed, feeling embarra.s.sed.

As it turned out, she was the one who had tried to strike up a conversation with Ji Chen earlier. She didnt expect that the handsome guy she was talking to was actually the Islander. Now, she felt like her toes were about to tap dance with embarra.s.sment.

Seeing their reserved behavior, Ji Chen smiled and said, Please, have a seat. Theres no need to be so cautious.

Hearing this, the three players glanced at each other before sitting in the chairs that had been prepared in advance.

I heard that you have something Im interested in. As long as I need it, money is not a problem. Hmm, lets start with you.

Me? Oh, okay.

The female player pointed to herself and seemed slightly dazed. For some reason, even though they were fellow players, facing the Islander gave her a sense of confronting a superior. It was as if before her stood a highly respected and long-established powerful figure.

Invisible but discernible, there was a peculiar aura of authority that evoked reverence.

Amidst the nervousness, they couldnt help but marvel at the greatness of the Big Boss Islander.

In just two months since entering this world, someone had already managed to possess such a powerful fleet and formidable army.

While feeling envious, they were also full of admiration..
