I traveled through the plane space with the trading system

The town is not very big, but because it has a port, it is very lively with people coming and going. It is backed by mountains and surrounded by water on three sides.

At the dock outside the town, boats were coming in and out, and fishermen were busy loading and unloading their goods. The streets of the town were lined with shops, offering a wide variety of goods.

People greeted each other, and the sounds of laughter and conversation intertwined, forming a picture full of vitality. In the distance, on the hills, shaded by green trees, some ancient buildings were faintly visible, as if telling the history of the town.

The water surface is sparkling, and the breeze blows on your cheeks, bringing a hint of freshness.

Walking down the street, Meng Kexin and his companions arrived at a small tavern. The air was thick with the aroma of wine, and the noisy voices of the guests echoed one after another. He found a corner to sit down, ordered a glass of wine, and savored it quietly.

At this time, an elderly fisherman walked in and caught Ye Muyuan's attention. The fisherman was thin and his face was full of traces of time, but his eyes revealed a kind of determination and wisdom.

Meng Kexin, filled with curiosity, walked lightly toward the weathered fisherman. A gentle breeze ruffled her hair, and sunlight shimmered on the sea, creating shimmering waves. As she reached the fisherman, a friendly and expectant smile spread across her face.

"Hello!" Meng Kexin greeted warmly.

The fisherman raised his head, showed a simple and kind smile and responded: "Hello, little girl!"

The two smiled at each other and naturally began to talk. Meng Kexin was full of yearning for this mysterious sea area and couldn't wait to learn more from this experienced fisherman.

The fisherman seemed to read her thoughts and slowly spoke, "This sea area holds countless secrets. I've fished here for many years and can be said to have witnessed its various changes."

Then, the fisherman vividly recounted those legendary stories about the sea. He talked about the thrilling fights in the stormy waves, and the strange creatures hidden in the deep sea; he described the beautiful coral reefs and colorful fish, as if bringing Meng Kexin into a dreamlike world.

Meng Kexin asked with longing in her eyes, "Old man, I heard there are pirates in this area. Is that true?"

The old man nodded and said, "It's true. I was robbed by pirates once."

"Then how did you escape?" Meng Kexin asked nervously.

The old man took a deep breath and recalled the past: "I was fishing at sea when a group of pirates suddenly appeared. They attacked me fiercely and damaged my boat. I had no choice but to jump into the sea and swim desperately to the shore. Fortunately, I am a good swimmer and finally escaped."

Meng Kexin was terrified when she heard this. "Are there often pirates here?"

The old man shook his head. "It's not often, just occasionally. But everyone will be careful. Girl, if you want to go out to sea, you must pay attention to safety."

Meng Kexin nodded gratefully, "Thank you for your reminder, old man. I will be careful." She looked at the sea in the distance, her heart filled with a desire to explore the unknown.

Meng Kexin's eyes were firm. "I'm not afraid of danger. I believe that as long as I'm fully prepared, I can cope with all kinds of challenges."

The old man looked at her with a glint of admiration in his eyes. "It's good for young people to have courage, but you can't underestimate the power of the sea. If you encounter difficulties, remember to return home in time."

Meng Kexin smiled and nodded, "I will remember your words." She turned and left, ready to venture into the sea with Ye Muyuan.

At night, when they were having dinner in the inn, they suddenly heard a commotion outside. When they went out to see, they saw a group of pirates robbing a merchant ship.

Seeing this, Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan immediately decided to help. They drew their swords and rushed towards the pirates. When the pirates saw them rushing towards them, they immediately sent some people to deal with them.

Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan were both skilled in martial arts and they quickly defeated the bandits. However, the bandits did not give up and sent more people to deal with them.

Seeing that there were more and more pirates, Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan knew that they could no longer fight them, so they decided to retreat first.

They returned to the inn and discussed their next plan. Ye Muyuan said angrily, "These pirates are so despicable. We must find a way to catch them all."

Meng Kexin nodded and said, "I have an idea. We can pretend to surrender, then sneak into their lair and find a way to catch them all in one fell swoop."

Ye Muyuan thought about it, then said, "This is a good idea, but we have to be careful not to be discovered by them."

So, the two of them pretended to surrender and followed the pirates back to their den. There were many pirates in the den, and they were very happy to see Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan surrender.

The bandit leader looked at the two men and said smugly, "You two are very sensible. As long as you listen to me obediently, I won't kill you."

Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan nodded vigorously and said quickly, "We will definitely listen to you."

The bandit leader ordered: "You two go and rest for a while. I will assign you tasks tomorrow."

Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan said respectfully, "Okay." They were taken to a room with two beds, and they lay down on the bed to rest.

At night, Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan got up quietly, put on their night clothes, and prepared to investigate the bandit's lair.

They walked out of the room and saw many people patrolling in the bandit's lair. They carefully avoided those patrols and came to the outside of the bandit leader's room.

They held their breath, cautiously approaching the source of the noise. They could hear the bandit leader speaking in a low voice to another person. The mysterious man's voice tinged with excitement: "Boss, we've got quite a bonanza this time! So much treasure! Don't you think we should move it all away quickly?"

After a moment's silence, the bandit leader slowly spoke: "Don't worry, it's not the time yet. In my opinion, we should first find a safe place to hide these treasures. After the storm has passed and the situation has stabilized, it won't be too late to transport them." His tone was firm and steady, as if everything was under control.

Upon hearing this, the man nodded repeatedly and said, "Boss, you're very thoughtful. I'll do as you say." After that, the two of them seemed to be discussing the specific location of the treasure in whispers. The people hiding in the shadows could not help but look at each other, secretly wondering how to deal with this sudden change.

Ye Muyuan said, "We can steal the treasure while they're not paying attention, and then burn down the bandit's den." Meng Kexin said, "That's a good idea, but we have to be careful not to get caught."
