Chapter 418 - 223: To Rock Island! Brother Yan Mo!
By the conscience of heaven and earth, Suo Lun really had not intended to be the favored guest of the Yan women and thereby gain entry to Rock Island.
His hope was to use the Magic Mirror as a stepping stone to enter Rock Island and become a dedicated merchant to the island.
After all, there had been a precedent for this. Over a hundred years ago, someone unintentionally brewed a barley wine with high alcohol content, extremely potent.
The Rock Pirates, who lived at sea all year round, dealt with heavy moisture. Many salt miners, after reaching the age of forty, would gradually find it increasingly difficult to walk, let alone board ships for combat.
But this person had brewed a strong barley wine that, once drunk, could expel the dampness from the salt miners’ bodies.
Therefore, he became Salt Island’s closest friend and the dedicated merchant to Rock Island. And he suddenly became wealthy, transforming from an ordinary small merchant into a rich and powerful family.
Even though the secret of high-concentration distilled spirits was cracked twenty-odd years later, and numerous distilleries across the world could brew potent barley wine, Salt Island continued its cooperation with this man’s family, without betrayal, to this very day.
Because this merchant had changed the destiny of the salt miners, he became the closest friend of the Yan Tribe.
And Suo Lun, he tried to become another intimate friend of Rock Island with his mirrors.
Of course, his mirrors could not change the destiny of the salt miners. But Yan women love beauty, and these Magic Mirrors were enough to drive them wild.
Men love strong liquor, and women love beauty.
