When Mu Laohei heard Qian Jiujiu asking about the pirates, he instantly became excited and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Are you planning to take action against those pirates, Princess? That would be great. You don't know, people who live by the sea are really worried."
Madam Mu also nodded and said, "That's right. If the princess can really capture those pirates, it will be a great thing. The villagers in the fishing villages on the coast have been harassed by pirates for a long time, and countless people have died at the hands of pirates. It was only after our Lao Hei came here and built a watchtower that things got much better."
"At least every time the pirates come, except for the very small ones, all the large ones can be seen, which reduces a lot of losses. Sometimes we can't catch them in time. This time, we have to thank the prince and princess for preventing the entire fishing village from being wiped out."
Although Mu Laohei is rude, he is very capable: "I always wonder why pirates would target a little girl. This is a little unbelievable to me. Speaking of which, the princess's methods are still as sharp as ever."
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to this guy: "Don't talk about anything else, just tell me what the situation is like with the pirates on your side?"
Mu Laohei stopped flattering and started to speak seriously: "I did send people to investigate, using a large ship borrowed from the Wan family. We found an island in the sea not far from Xiacheng. Pirates now live there. There are said to be more islands farther away, but we didn't go there or go far to check. The management on the island is quite strict, and our people haven't sneaked in yet."
Qian Jiujiu remembered that there was some introduction on the map of his previous life. It seemed that although it was not the same world, the terrain and other things were similar to the previous world.
"You've never made it up there, which means you don't know exactly how many pirates there are. You haven't caught any pirates either, right?"
Mu Laohei touched his head, a little embarrassed: "Those pirates have never been captured alive. Princess, how about you bring a few of the pirates you captured for interrogation?"
Qian Jiujiu thought it was a good idea and nodded: "Okay, go pick out those who are not dead yet, treat them, and then interrogate them."
Mu Laohei thought this was a good idea, so he said goodbye to the two and went to do his business. Madam Mu also said goodbye and left. Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other and were about to rest when they heard the housekeeper of the other courtyard come to report.
"Your Majesty, Princess, Wan Houyu of the Wan family said he wants to see you for something."
The two looked at each other and decided to meet. Mu Yexiao waved his hand and asked the butler to invite the person in. Qian Jiujiu looked at the butler's back and asked curiously: "You said Wan Houyu came to see us, what's the matter?"
Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows, somewhat amused: "We'll know when he comes in."
Wan Houyu was soon brought in by the housekeeper and bowed to the two of them: "Wan Houyu greets the prince and the princess. Upon learning that the prince and the princess have returned, Yu is here to send the invitation."
Invitation? Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu looked at each other, and then the butler handed the invitation to Mu Yexiao. Mu Yexiao took a look at it and handed it to Qian Jiujiu.
Qian Jiujiu was also a little surprised after reading it: "Are you inviting us to visit your Wan family's shipyard?"
Wan Houyu nodded: "Yes, I heard that the princess wants to go to sea. Our Wan family's ship is definitely the best choice. I hope the princess will honor us."
Qian Jiujiu was too embarrassed to say that we had actually visited your shipyard before, but thinking that we had to take out the upgraded version of the shipbuilding process, we really had to go for a visit, so we nodded and said, "Okay, we just came back, let's rest today and visit again tomorrow."
Wan Houyu looked at the prince and princess and agreed, and a flash of joy flashed across his heart, and then his face changed to a hesitant look. Qian Jiujiu was a little surprised: "Do you have anything else to say?"
After hesitating for a moment, Wan Houyu finally spoke: "Are the prince and princess looking for someone? Yu has seen the portraits, and I know some clues about these two people. They went to the Wang family."
Went to the Wang family? Could it be that the Wang family also has a connection with Mingyue Island? She decided to go out to sea, but she couldn't give up the bell. She nodded to Wan Houyu and said, "Okay, I know about this matter. If you really find the bell in the Wan family, I will give you a credit."
Wan Hou Yu's mouth twitched. He didn't want the princess to commend him. He took a deep breath and said, "Yu wants to say more than that. That bell may be from the Wan family and have the blood of the Wan family. It is said that only the Wan family members born on Mingyue Island can inherit the blood of the Wan family. However, this matter has always been kept secret, and I haven't heard much."
Qian Jiujiu understood that everyone on Mingyue Island might be the one who inherited special powers. What could the Wan family bloodline do? Qian Jiujiu really didn't know: "This matter, this princess will find out clearly, do you have anything else to say?"
Wan Houyu was not unaware of the obvious expulsion. He twitched his lips and quickly said goodbye and left: "Yu, I'm leaving."
The housekeeper sent Wan Houyu out. Qian Jiujiu curled her lips and said, "I feel like Wan Houyu suddenly saying this is not a good thing. Mu Yexiao, why haven't your parents arrived yet? We arrived so long ago."
Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows. Didn't he think it was possible that something bad would happen to the dignified master of Mingyue Island? The biggest possibility was that these two wanted to spend more time alone on the road
"It should be here soon."
Qian Jiujiu had no choice but to nod: "Maybe just in these few days, let someone pay attention."
While the two were dealing with things, San Ya was taken into the room by the servants. The mother and daughter were in the same room. As soon as they settled down, San Ya thanked the maid and let the maid go down.
The blind woman reached out and touched Sanya's head. The mother and daughter leaned together and said, "Mom, I'm very happy that your eyesight can be healed."
Sanya's words warmed the blind woman's heart. She reached out and touched Sanya's head: "When mother's eyesight is better, mother will make money to support you and let you grow up happily, okay?"
San Ya leaned into the blind woman's arms and said, "Mom, you are so kind."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone knocking on the door. San Ya bravely asked, "Who is it?"
Nan Nan said with a smile: "It's me, Nan Nan."
Isn't this the prince? San Ya walked over, opened the door, and looked at Nan Nan curiously: "Hello, prince. Are you here to see me?"
Nan Nan nodded: "Of course I came here to find you."
As soon as the words fell, a delicate snort was heard: "Okay, brother, I caught you. You actually came to San Ya without telling me."
San Ya looked towards Bei Bei, worried that the princess didn't like her, but Bei Bei walked towards San Ya with a smile on her face.
"You are San Ya, you are quite cute. The gift my mother gave me was bought from you, right? Did you make it yourself?"
Although she didn't know what the princess was going to do, San Ya still nodded honestly: "I made it myself, doesn't the princess like it?"
Seeing the girl speaking cautiously, Beibei suddenly softened: "No, I like it very much. I just want to talk to you about cooperation. You know these skills, teach them to my people, and then we can split the money we earn equally."
"You are looking for a place to live, right? If you cooperate with me, you will be able to make a lot of money soon. Then you can buy a yard, hire servants, and hire bodyguards. You and your mother will be safe then."
Sanya was very excited by these words: "Are those things really so profitable? Can they buy so many things?"
Beibei looked at Sanya with a smile: "You were brought back by my mother, how can this princess coax you? You can rest assured, even if I don't make that much money by then, I will buy you a yard and people."
San Ya was so shocked by the generous guarantee that she was confused. She didn't expect the princess to be so kind. Finally, she bit her lip and said, "Then I'll give you the things. You can find a place for me and my mother to live. Just set up a small stall to make a living."
Beibei laughed even more happily when he heard this. This is a child who is not greedy. He patted Sanya on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, follow me, I will never let you suffer any loss. Come on, I will take you to my workshop and show you what I have made recently."
Nan Nan stood aside, feeling particularly helpless. He knew that his sister would not be nice to others for no reason. There must be a reason behind it, so he followed her.
Beibei turned to look at Nannan: "Brother, why are you following us? I tell you, Sanya has already cooperated with me, you should do what you should do. We are all girls, it is easy to communicate, you can go."
Nan Nan felt like he was abandoned by his sister. Fortunately, he also found a new playmate, so he could only shake his head and said, "Okay, I'll leave then. You take good care of San Ya. She's different from you."
Beibei immediately understood what Nannan meant by her tone, which was that Sanya was dumber and not as smart as her. In an instant, Beibei felt full of happiness: "Don't worry, you still don't believe me."
In fact, Nan Nan mainly wanted to express that San Ya is relatively poor, and asked Bei Bei to be careful not to hurt San Ya's self-esteem. I don't know if Bei Bei understood. Although Bei Bei is smart, she is also a kind girl, and she should consider things before doing them.
Beibei completely ignored her brother's complicated thoughts, and quickly took Sanya to the workshop she had asked someone to prepare. The workshop was also in the backyard of the palace, and three rooms were specially set aside.
There were more than a dozen female workers working on things. Sanya was older than Beibei, and since they were both girls, she quickly became friends with Sanya: "Sister Sanya, take a look. These are the things we made and sold in various shops. Do you think they look good?"
These products include hair bands and hair decorations. Most of them are so beautiful that they dazzle the eyes. But they have nothing to do with the things she makes
