"Although there are few people on the island of the crown of the world, there are also some nobles. Those people live on the top of the big mushroom and manage all the farmers below, and they also collect taxes."
On the street with various mushrooms, Anna said while walking with her maid.
"Then they use the lives of these farmers to make money? They are really too dark."
Anna nodded in agreement. "Yeah, these people are so bad. Such a profitable place should be given to me."
With her servant, Anna walked along this road.
A rickshaw in the port area, but she didn't take it. She needs to measure her new territory with her feet.
The bottom of the crown of the world is not all fields, there are some low rooms between fields, which are the residences of farmers.
Anna walked in and found that there was no one in it except for some mushrooms growing in the corners.
Only the coughing in those rooms proves that this is not a dead village.
Anna passed through the village and continued to walk towards the end of the street.
The island is very big. Anna walked for three hours to reach the bottom of the World Crown. Below the huge mushrooms hung a large wooden basket the size of a small room, and the thick rope stretched all the way up.
"I need to go up and see your governor if I have important matters." Facing the black skin guarding the elevator, Anna took out an emblem of He Fang Island and said directly in a commanding tone.
Looking at Anna's temperament and clothes, as well as the servants behind him, those in black uniforms who dare to stop him, he quickly opened the elevator door.
Following dozens of strong men nearby shouting chants, pushing the winch, the large wooden basket carrying Anna slowly rises upward.
Following a hole cut by the crown of the world, the basket slowly came to the umbrella surface of the crown of the world.
Anna felt the sweet smell in the air disappear.
The umbrella surface of the crown of the world seems to have some kind of magic power. While isolating the spores, it also isolates the suffering below from poverty.
A quiet and peaceful town appeared in front of Anna. Under the bright street lamps, all the people in the town were dressed brightly, in sharp contrast with the lifeless countryside below.
was there, a furry puppy ran from the side to Anna's feet and squatted down, looking at her with those big eyes open.
ran over to a boy with a bow tie around his neck. He first apologized to Anna generously, and then took out the rope to mark the dog's collar. "Goodbye sister."
Watching the boy lead the puppy away, Anna closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "What a wonderful place to be, I'm a little hungry."
Looking at it carefully for a long time, Anna raised her foot and walked towards the largest building in the town, which is the Governor's Mansion, the crown of the world.
Anna's noble temperament played a role, and soon he was led to the living room for guests.
She looked at the exaggerated decorations around, and shook her head in disappointment. "I don't like this decoration style, Martha, remember, everything in this room has to be replaced."
"Okay, master, I took it down."
Just as the master and servant were talking, a housekeeper with gray hair came in, "Governor Tucker just has time now, you can come over."
Anna took it to a bedroom and saw Tucker lying on the bed drinking milk.
Tucker is a tall and strong young man, but his face looks unexpectedly good.
Smelling the familiar smell in the air, and then glanced at the messy sheets, Anna frowned slightly.
"Which island are you from? If you are just here to buy food, just talk to the person below. Why do you have to see me? Hurry up, I have important things to do."
Tucker looked up and drank milk, put the cup on the table and then lay back on the bed.
"I asked the Governor, not about food, but about your island."
Listening to the pleasant female voice, Tucker propped his head up and looked at Anna. Seeing Anna's charming eyes on the tulle, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Make a price and stay on my island."
There was a smile in Anna's eyes. "As long as you can agree to my request, then I will agree to your request."
"Oh?" Tucker came in interest, lifted the quilt covering him, and walked naked in front of Anna.
"It's interesting, people on other islands haven't come to me for a long time. Who are you doing things for?"
"Your Excellency, what we will discuss next is very important, don't you think there are a lot of people here?" Anna said to the servants and guards who were serving around.
Tucker waved his fat hand, the crowd in the room retired respectfully, and the maids behind Anna also retreated.
Anna's eyes began to change quickly, and her voice suddenly became extremely harsh. "Is it really appropriate for you to stand in front of your sister and speak like this?"
Tucker's eyes began to be confused, but as a ring on his left thumb gleamed red, his expression quickly came to his senses, "Are you revising my memory?"
"Puff," a wooden thorn with forearm length shot out from under the bed with an afterimage, and instantly inserted into Anna's chest.
Anna's delicate face instantly collapsed, and the giant tentacle monster screamed and fled outside.
A few groups of black shadows flew out of the bed instantly and quickly followed.
Listening to the fighting outside the door and the screams of the monsters, Tucker showed a trace of disdain on his face~EbookFREE.me~ turned and walked towards his bed.
"Anyone really dares to come over and trouble me. Although the crown of the world is not big, it is still a living island in size. Do you really think I'm not protected?"
Tucker heard movement behind him as soon as he finished speaking. When he turned around and saw the appearance of the incoming person, he roared impatiently: "Sister! What's wrong with me playing with a woman? Do you have to stare at me like this?"
"Have you forgotten the promise you made to your father? What have you been doing all these years!" The unscathed Anna stood there and looked at him with disgust.
"How is that? Father has been dead for five years!! I am the governor of this island! Now you go out for me!!" Tucker shouted excitedly.
"Just keep going on like this, one day you will die on a woman's belly." Anna left with a look of hatred for iron and steel.
As soon as Anna walked out the door, she saw her maids were carrying the corpses, and they were holding all kinds of weird relics in their hands.
Among them are the servants just now, and some guys in black cloaks. Their eyes are full of shock and fear.
"Master, congratulations, this island is yours." Martha greeted her with a smile.
Anna stretched and shook her head. "Not yet, an island governor is involved too much. To occupy someone else's turf, we have to take it slowly. Hey, I don't know what happened to Charles."
