    An Rui secretly said that sure enough, just as he expected, the war between Star Island and Moon Island has broken out.  Precisely because a war would break out here, he brought a shipload of fine iron weapons to sell here. He wanted to make war fortune.  War will inevitably involve consumption, especially the consumption of weapons, which will directly cause the price of weapons to rise, reaching several times the usual price.  The weapons produced on Jingtie Island are famous in the Blade Sea. They are recognized wherever they are obtained and will definitely be sold at a high price here.  Of course, An Rui came here for more than one purpose, and there were other purposes as well.  He is very likely to get involved in the war between Hoshidao and Tsukishima.  When you participate in a war, you must take sides, and you must stand on the side that will win in the end.  This time, Anrui plans to stand on the side of Star Island and support the original island owner Nisha.  "I deeply sympathize with your country's experience. I hope you can end this war as soon as possible and bring peace to Xingyue Island. Speaking of the war, it reminds me of one thing. Our ship comes from Jingtie Island  I brought a batch of fine iron weapons on board when I went to sea. I wonder if you are interested? If your navy is short of weapons, I will be happy to sell these weapons to you at a suitable price.  The quality is good and it should be of help to you." An Rui chatted and changed the topic to his own goods and promoted himself.  "Do you have weapons produced on Jingtie Island on your ship?" Carol's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was obviously moved. "In this month of war, our army has consumed a lot of weapons, and we just need to replenish them. You  Bring me the weapons on your ship. If they are of good quality, I am willing to buy them at a higher price, guaranteed to be higher than the price on the exchange. " "Here, bring two of the fine iron weapons on our ship.  Commander Carroll took a look." An Rui raised his palm and clapped it twice.  There were sailors immediately following the order.  He brought more than ten fine iron weapons up and placed them in front of Carol.  These weapons shone with a stunning silver brilliance, their blades were extremely sharp, and they were very flexible. They were all bronze-level weapons.  Carol picked up several weapons and looked at them one by one.  After checking it carefully, he finally nodded and said: "As expected, it is a weapon from Jingtie Island. It is indeed very good. I want it for ten gold coins each." "I'm afraid this won't work, Commander Carroll." An Rui smiled.  He shook his head.  "Although I sympathize with your country's situation and want to help you, the price is a bit too low and does not meet my expectations." He may not care about a few barrels of water, but this batch of goods must be sold at a high price  , these are two different things.  "Ten gold coins is still low? A bronze-level weapon only costs this much." Carol rolled her eyes.  There was a fierce aura exuding from his body.  "You just said that you want to offer me a price higher than the market price. If I sell ten gold coins, I can sell it at the exchange price." An Rui was chatting and laughing, and was not stuck.  The influence of Rolle's momentum.  "I really don't know much about commodity prices. If the price is low, I will raise the price a little more. How about twelve gold coins a handle?" "Haha, Commander Carroll is really good at negotiating prices. But  I don't intend to change the price. Fifteen gold coins for a fine iron weapon, this is a fixed price, no counter-offer." "If you set the price so high, you will really make a fortune in war." Carol said with a heavy face.  He stood down, blowing his beard and staring.  "Who told me to be a maritime merchant?" An Rui shrugged.  The price of fifteen gold coins.  It was indeed a bit too high, but after much hesitation, Carol gritted her teeth and accepted the price.  Firstly, their navy is indeed in urgent need of replenishing its armaments. Secondly, after purchasing this batch of weapons, it can prevent these weapons from falling into the hands of the Yue Island rebels. Thirdly, Xingyue Island is a country after all and does not care about this small amount of money.  As for the idea of ??grabbing these fine iron weapons directly, Carol has never thought about it. He is not a pirate.  Carol had some money on her warship and used the money to buy Anrui¡¯s fine iron weapons, completing the transaction on the spot.  Anrui¡¯s weapons were sold for more than a thousand gold coins in total, and the harvest was quite good. Calculated, the net profit was about 700 gold coins, which is already quite considerable.  This is the benefit of doing business overseas. As long as you complete a business, you can make a lot of money.  It's just that the risks of doing business at sea are too high. High profits come with high risks. Without strength and courage, you can't be a maritime businessman.  After the transaction was completed, Carol and Anri chatted some more, especially asking a few more questions about Tyrannosaurus, and were very interested in this big guy.  After chatting, Carol returned to his ship, and several ships were back on the road.  Through the transactions of clear water and weapons, the two parties have established a certain degree of trust.?, after going to sea, they simply went together and set off to Xingxing Port together.  Xingxing Port is the largest port of Xingdao and the capital of this island country.  ¡°We just made a deal and made a lot of money. An Rui and the crew were very happy.  An Rui was not stingy either. He gave Shafei and several other seafarers the money they deserved on the spot according to the dividend standard stated in the contract, not a penny less.  The new crew members and sailors are those who came in halfway. According to the rules of the sea, they are not eligible for dividends.  But Anrui still gave them some money, just not that much.  Everyone on the boat tasted the sweetness and was very happy.  ??Divide left and right, and the remaining money from Anrui, after deducting the purchase cost, is only about half of the profit.  This is his dividend standard. No matter how he earns money, he will keep half for himself and distribute the rest to his subordinates.  In this way, everyone will make money, and his subordinates will be happy to hang out with him.  Only eternal interests can buy eternal friends.  ¡­Half a day later, towards evening, the two fleets finally arrived at their destination, Star Island, and parted ways.  Carroll led the fleet to the military dock, while Anri's two merchant ships stopped at the civilian dock.  "You've worked hard these days, take a good rest on my arm." An Rui stood at the bow of the ship and stretched out his arm toward the sea.  The huge black shadow under the sea turned into a ray of light, wrapped around his arm, and turned into a black tattoo.  In comparison.  The tattoo area of ??Tyrannosaurus is much larger than that of Ice Dragon, because the volume of the tattoo is directly proportional to the volume of the dragon's body.  Anrui led the people ashore, went through the relevant procedures at the port office, paid the entry tax and berthing fee, and left the ship at the dock.  It¡¯s getting late.  It would not be too late to do the ship repairs and supplies tomorrow. He led the people directly into the port, intending to find a larger hotel and have a good rest.  "A lot of people here have red hair." Amy discovered this while walking on the road and said curiously.  The truth is exactly what she said.  In Star Harbor, many people have maroon hair, which is very special.  Especially those women with fiery red hair, they feel as passionate as fire and are quite attractive to men.  "These people are the red-haired people, which can be regarded as a branch of the human race. Red hair is the characteristic of this people. In addition to the special hair color, people of this race also have the talent to cast fire magic, and have produced many famous fire magic  Wizard. The original inhabitants of Xingyue Island were all red-haired people. After the navigation industry developed, there were more and more outsiders on the island, and there were residents of other races." An Rui looked at the red-haired girls on the roadside.  , talked eloquently.  "Red hair is so beautiful. I really want to learn the transformation spell to become a red-haired person." Amy blinked her big eyes and said with envy.  The group of people walked and chatted, and finally found a suitable hotel, checked in, and had a good night's rest.  In the days that followed, Anrui began to be busy with two things, one was repairing the ship, and the other was inquiring about local news, especially news about the civil war.  The stolen pirate ship had experienced the baptism of fire and was severely damaged.  It took many days to repair.  As for the Longteng, it also suffered some damage and also needs to be repaired.  Repairing a ship is a slow process, and it cannot be repaired in less than ten days and a half. During this period.  They can only wait patiently.  Since the tavern is a mixed bag and the information is relatively well-informed, Anrui will take people there every day to inquire about the information.  Over time, they finally figured out the ins and outs of the war.  This war was caused by serious differences within Xingyue Island, resulting in different political stances.  Due to the special hair color of the red-haired people, they are very popular among nobles and wealthy people from all over the world. As a result, the price of slaves of this tribe has been rising steadily, even as much as that of the elves.  Some senior officials of Xingyue Island think this is a business opportunity and plan to sell a large number of red-haired people to foreign countries in exchange for huge profits.  This kind of interest is not only economic interest, but also other interests, such as weapons, resources, military partners, etc.  As long as you have a red-haired slave in hand, you can get any benefits in exchange.  This proposal was severely protested by the owner of Nisha Island, who insisted on not selling his residents to foreign countries, believing that this was a very bad act.  Admiral Romon of Moon Island was the main supporter of this proposal. After the proposal was rejected by the owner of Nissa Island, he took the risk and launched a war and betrayed the owner of Nissa Island.  In order to increase his chances of winning, he also communicated with foreign countries, lured wolves into the house, reached an agreement with a large empire called the White Eagle Kingdom, and borrowed money from the White Eagle Kingdom.Many troops were recruited.  The civil war on Xingyue Island started like this and continues to this day. The flames of war are still burning everywhere, and it is difficult to determine the winner for a while.  "That Romon who started the war is so abominable. He actually helped foreign countries fight against his own country, and even wanted to sell the locals as slaves to foreign countries." Sam was filled with righteous indignation, his face turned red with anger, and he placed a cup in front of him.  juice.  He was probably the only one drinking juice in the pub.  "Well, he's not that good. He's even more hateful than those slave traders. No matter what the purpose is, you shouldn't sell your own people as commodities." An Rui nodded in agreement and took a sip of wine.  It was also one of the reasons why he sided with Xingdao.  Romon, the leader of Tsukishima, is too bad. If he doesn't like it, he can't stand on Tsukishima's side.  "I hope Xingdao can win this time, knock down Tsukishima and regain the lost ground. If Tsukishima wins this war, the red-haired tribe will probably suffer." "Don't worry. Xingdao will win." An  Rui put down his wine glass and thought it was time to meet the owner of Nissa Island.
