The villagers whispered among themselves, their eyes glued at the scene before them.
Coco had brought ten men by the gates and asked the guards to tie them up before leaving again, only to come back carrying a basket that was almost as tall as her.
She placed the basket at the bottom of the watchtower before she helped the guards on tying the group of men, the look of confusion and surprise were clear in their faces, but Coco didn't pay them any mind.
"I'll come back for these men." Coco told the guards as she threw an orange their way, "Keep them here and keep an eye on them. I'll make the appointment as quickly as possible so I can get them."
The guards flinched and scrambled to catch the orange.
The rumor of Coco Hughes selling a great quality fruit that makes nobles crazy had spread far and wide in the village.
The rumor of Coco Hughes giving away free fruit if she was in a good mood or if you managed to get to her good side and befriended her had also spread.
