Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 259

Kevin happily pushed his wheelbarrow on the road, followed by several people from the same village, who either pushed the wheelbarrow like Karen, or carried poles.

This group of people came to Fulan Port to deliver goods. The big businessman Adela opened a purchasing station in Fulan Port, specializing in the purchase of salt boiled by traditional methods.

Unlike other salt merchants who just rely on a few stinky money to be superior and dismiss them, this merchant named Adela can be said to be amiable, and he talks very well with these salt people, and keeps his mouth shut. "My friend" made Kevin and others feel that the other party really regarded them as friends sincerely.

It is very strange that I have never seen the salt sold by Master Adela in the vicinity. According to the other party, it is to be transported to the far east.

But they don't care where the other party sells it, as long as they can exchange for coins to support their families.

A group of people came to the door of the buying station, but they saw people coming in and out of the door, as if they were carrying things. The plump belly and rich-looking master Adela stood at the door and directed the servants.

Kevin stepped forward to say hello: "Master Adela, what do you want?"

The businessman Adela turned around, saw that it was Kevin, and hurriedly responded: "Oh, it's Kevin! Are you... here for delivery?"

"Yes, we brought all the salt from the village here."

But seeing a hint of guilt on Adela's face, he glanced at the team behind Kevin, and then gently pulled Kevin aside.

He whispered, "To tell you the truth, Kevin, I was just about to send someone to find you."

"Is there anything important?"

"Your business... I... I can't go on, I have to move out in a few days."

When he first heard this sentence, Kevin hadn't reacted, and it took him a while to say anxiously, "What do you mean? Master Adela, what do you mean by not being able to do our business?"

Adela said in embarrassment: "Oh, is it because of the recent war? All the trade routes to the east have been cut off. I have no way in other directions."

"War? This **** war!"

Kevin clenched his fists fiercely, trying to punch out but couldn't find the target.

Adela's face was full of sympathy: "Oh, it's not easy for you to come all the way, so come to my store to rest first. Seeing that we have cooperated for so long, let me treat you to a meal , invite your companions to come in."

"Thank you, Master Adela."

Kevin thanked him feebly, his stomach was really hungry.

He returned to his companions and told them that Adela was leaving Port Fulan, and everyone was blown away.

"What? Master Adela is leaving now? What shall we do then?"

"My family is still waiting to use the money?"

"Hey, let's fill our stomach here first and then think of a way."

At the dinner table, no one spoke, just eating in silence, the atmosphere was extremely dull.

Adela smiled bitterly and said to them: "There is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. I will come back after this war is over and the trade route is restored. At that time, I will still rely on your supplies."

Kevin and the others could only smile wryly after hearing this. God knows when this **** war will be over. The lords don't care about the pain of the low-level people like them.

"Come here! Bring the barrel of wine in the kitchen. Let's have a few drinks today. I've always regarded you as friends these days. I'm really reluctant to leave like this."

With a wave of her hand, Adela told the clerk in the store to get the wine.

Kevin stood up and stopped him: "Master Adela, what an embarrassment. It is already a great favor for you to entertain us for dinner."

Adela stared at him: "Are you not giving me face? Sit down!"

Kevin had to sit down.

The wine barrel was quickly put on the table, and a large glass was filled in front of everyone's eyes.

Adela raised her glass first and said loudly, "Cheers!"

Kevin stared at the wine in front of him, feeling very complicated, "Ah~ It's said that you can forget your troubles when you're drunk, drink it..."

He brought the cup to his lips, and the other companions also picked up the cups when they saw his movements.

"Fuck! This wine is too strong!"

Kevin drank it down in one gulp. The spicy taste made him frown tightly and almost choked. He had never drank such a strong wine.

However, after swallowing it into the stomach, an unprecedented burning sensation rose from the lower abdomen and quickly spread throughout the whole body, causing a strange feeling in the brain.

The other companions were also expressive, and some of them were so hot that they stuck out their tongues and breathed out.

Adela smiled slightly: "Everyone has never drunk this kind of bar. Come, have another drink!"

After several consecutive glasses of wine, everyone was a little drunk.

Adela put her arms on Kevin's shoulders, her face was flushed, and she smelled of alcohol and said: "Little brother Kevin! Actually, I didn't leave here because of the war. I also... oh, Stop talking, drink!"

The other party seemed to have something to hide. Kevin tried to stay awake and asked, "Master Adela, what's the reason? You don't need to hide anything from us."

Adela let out a long sigh: "Oh, those owners of the saltworks in Fulan Port, as well as the officials here, they... hiccup... they can't tolerate me!"

"Can't accommodate you? Why?"

Adela said drunkenly: "I am in their territory, and the demand is quite large, but I have never purchased from them, which offends them severely... Actually, I didn't do it on purpose, really It's my target customers who only like traditionally boiled salt.”

Kevin slapped the table angrily: "Don't they plan to give us a way to survive? We have boiled salt for a living for generations and drove you away. Who will we sell our salt to?"

A gleam of imperceptible light flashed in Adela's eyes, and she sighed and said: "People nowadays~www.mtlnovel.com~ have fallen into the money hole, you are competitors in their eyes, They want you to starve to death early. Let me tell you, there are rumors that the boiled salt on the market is poisonous and will erode human health without anyone noticing it, and they probably released it.”

"This is really stupid! Before the salt field appeared, they also ate our salt for generations. For hundreds of years, they have never heard of eating salt to eat dead people."

One of Kevin's companions yelled angrily.

Adela shook her head, with a helpless look: "Rumors are the most terrifying. There are too many people talking about them, so you can't help but not believe them."

"Oh! There is no place to sell the salt, and the tax will be paid in two days!"

"Those fat salt farm owners are really hateful!"

Under the effect of alcohol, everyone talked more, and you complained about the injustice of the world one by one.

Only Kevin drank his own wine silently, swallowing glass after glass. Steel, guns and the industrial party across the world
