Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 530 Leisurely

Charles, who was trapped in the soft and warm quilt, slowly opened his eyes.

Pausing for a second, when the body did not feel the familiar swaying feeling, Charles realized that it had been a few days since he returned to the shore.

The smooth and delicate carcass in his arms was gone, it seemed that Anna got up very early.

Charles yawned lazily, and closed his eyes again smelling the fragrance on the pillow next to him. He is very comfortable now, and he wants to sleep again.

It's a pity that habits can't be easily changed. Charles never had a bad habit of staying in bed before, and now he won't be able to learn it in a while.

He lifted the quilt and stood up. I walked to the balcony in my pajamas and looked at the lively streets outside the iron fence of the Governor's Mansion.

The naval fleet of Hope Island has returned to Hong Kong. With the end of the collective memorial service for the war dead, the impact of the war on Hope Island has gradually disappeared.

At this time, the soldiers took their salaries and rewards and went to the streets on vacation to release the pressure brought about by the war, so the streets were very lively.

With his excellent vision, Charles could see a long queue forming in front of a shop a mile away. The shop seemed to be newly opened and he had never seen it before.

"Well...the island looks like there is something new, go and see."

As soon as Charles pushed open the bedroom door, the servant outside the door was about to greet him with clean clothes.

"No need to change, I think the pajamas are quite comfortable to wear, so that's it." Charles took out the wallet from his clothes.

"Your Excellency, what about breakfast..." the maid said hesitantly.

"I'll go outside and buy some casually. You can eat it. If you have eaten it, then feed it to Lily's mouse." Charles said, walking along the corridor full of carved reliefs and famous paintings towards the gate of the Governor's Mansion.

After walking a few steps, he backed away. He closed his right eye with his hand, and put the black and red spider on the clothes in the maid's hand. "Feed it, the little thing is a little hungry."

This kind of thing is really good. Not only can it make up for half of Charles' lack of vision, but it can also be used as a scout at critical moments.

But this spider needs to be fed every once in a while, which is really troublesome.

Walking out through the side door where the servants went shopping, Charles walked down the street with his hands in the pockets of his pajamas.

After a while, Charles had a glass of milky oysters in his hand, and he walked slowly while sucking the sweet shells.

Hope Island has many new roadside delicacies, all of which smell and taste good, but for Charles, the simple food of milk oyster has a special emotion, which is unmatched by other snacks.

When Charles completely wiped out the things in his hand, he came to the long dragon.

Only then did Charles discover that the popular store was a new mechanical furniture store.

Through the thick glass, you can see all kinds of mechanical appliances placed inside.

For example, a mechanical washing machine weighing two hundred catties, and a vacuum cleaner with wheels higher than a person, these are the inspirations that people in the institute got from the photos on Charles' mobile phone.

Of course, it is not appropriate to say that it is an electrical appliance. Some machines do not use electricity but wind up.

"Hey, hey~! The kid in pajamas don't look at me, I'm talking about you!"

Charles, who was looking east and west, turned his head to look at the long queue beside him, and it was one of the people in line who was talking. "What's up?"

"Yes, you can afford to wear pajamas. You must be rich, right? How about it? Do you want to go in? I can sell you my place, just wait a few more minutes."

The man's mouth was wide open, revealing the yellow tartar between his teeth, and the inside of the collar was still patched. He didn't look like someone who could afford to buy things from this store.

Charles walked to his side and looked casually at the long dragon for a few seconds. "Substitute line?"

"Of course, didn't you see the navy with guns standing at the door of the store? This is the property of the governor. How dare you not line up? Well, I'll count you as cheap, 200 echoes."

"I can tell you that there are only so many goods today, and they will be gone when they are sold out. You will definitely not be able to buy them if you line up from the back now."

"Don't worry, I just came to the island not long ago, so I don't know much about it. Are there many people who buy this thing on the island?"

The man stared wide-eyed, "Didn't you see this long dragon? Although things are expensive, there are many rich people on Hope Island!"

"Under normal circumstances, it's more cost-effective for him to hire someone to do laundry and clean up than to buy this thing?" Charles asked again.

The man in the line showed a smug expression on his face, "You don't understand this, the comparison heart is something that others don't have, and the current Daoxin people, if you don't have this set of things in your family, you will be ashamed Call yourself Island Heart."

"Oh~" Charles nodded clearly. It seems that this is Gordon's handwriting. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, anyway, if others have it, he must have it.

In the entire Earth Sea, only people from Hope Island have the leisure time to compare these things.

"How is it? You are also from the heart of the island, right? Do you want to have a set?"

Charles thought for a while, then took out two green echo notes and handed them to him.

The man took the money and was about to leave with a happy face.

"Is there no other work on the island? Why do you do this kind of thing for a living?" Charles, who was standing in the line, asked.

"Hey, as long as I get up early every day and stand for a while, the money will come into my pocket by itself. What kind of job is so easy? I won't change it for the governor! I can drink for two days at a time!" The man was proud Shaking the banknotes in his hand, he turned and walked towards the dock area.

Charles waited patiently, and just as the shop was about to open, a big belly pressed against his back.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Planck, the chef of the Narwhal, took out an echo note and handed it to an old man next to him.

"Captain? Why are you here too? Is the Governor's Mansion also short of these?" Plank stared at Charles with those small eyes.

"Didn't go shopping casually, I heard from Lily, aren't you planning to open your own restaurant? You still have time to go shopping?" Charles asked him.

"Yes, I plan to open a restaurant, so I plan to buy a TV. After visiting other restaurants in the past few days, I found that as long as there is one in it, the business will not be too bad, so I also need one. .”

According to Plank, Charles knew that compared with other household appliances for comparison, televisions are the most popular appliances among the islanders. After all, who doesn’t like to watch dramas in theaters anytime, anywhere.

Moreover, for some popular dramas in the theater, sometimes you can't get a good seat when you go in.

But now as long as there is a TV, you can watch it repeatedly at home anytime, as long as you want,

Not only drama, puppet show, opera, acrobatics, animal taming, you can buy the same tape for everything you want.

It's no wonder why Planck installed televisions in his dining room.

Charles still remembers that when he was a child, his favorite thing was to sit in front of the TV with a bowl to eat.
