Two days later.

Southern Asia.

The country is known as the Garden City.

In a high-end residence, in a bedroom.

A middle-aged Caucasian man in his forties and fifties, but still in tall figure and with majesty on his body, had just finished taking a shower and was about to go back to his room to rest with his wife.

But as soon as he came out of the bathroom, he heard a knock on the door.

"Knock Knock"

It came from the door of the house.

The wife had already gone to the bedroom to apply a mask, but she didn't have time to open the door, so the middle-aged man came directly to the door and opened the door.

I saw a strange young Asian man standing outside, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Are you?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Hello, my name is Yang Tian," Yang Tian smiled, "You're Captain Frank, right?"

Captain Frank nodded, "Yes, I am." I don't think I've seen you. ”

"Yes, this is the first time we have met," Yang Tian smiled, "I came to see you to discuss a deal with you." ”

"Deal?" Captain Frank raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled, "I'm sorry, I'm a captain, not a businessman." I don't sell anything, I don't want to buy anything, what's the deal?"

"Of course, the deal I'm talking about is not a deal," Yang Tian said indifferently, "As far as I know, you will personally command a ship tomorrow and go to North Africa, right?"

"Uh...... "Yes," said Captain Frank, "but it doesn't seem like there's anything to talk about, is it? I'm just in charge of the pilot, and none of the cargo on board is mine, so don't make any of your minds." ”

"No, no, don't worry, I don't have the idea of selling goods," Yang Tian smiled, "As far as I know, you will pass near the coast of Soma, right?"

"No," said Captain Frank, shaking his head, "our ship does pass through that area, but for safety reasons we will go around at least three hundred nautical miles off the coast of Soma to avoid being attacked by pirates." ”

"Oh, is that so......" Yang Tian thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, you will definitely do what I say." It doesn't matter. What I want to say is, I want to get on your ship and go on this voyage with you. In return, if you encounter pirates, I will help you out. ”

When Captain Frank heard this, he was a little unhappy I'm the captain, I don't know how the ship is going to go? However, he is an old man after all, and his temper is relatively mild. Facing a young man like Yang Tian, he didn't lose his temper, but just smiled slightly teasingly, and said, "I have already said that I will go around, and basically I will not meet pirates." You're trying to get it for free

Boat?"

Yang Tian smiled bitterly and said, "Free boat? I don't lack this money." Well, if you don't meet pirates, I'll pay a thousand dollars for the ticket, okay?"

When Captain Frank heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

What's the matter with this young man?

Obviously said that he would walk around and not meet pirates, but he was still so sure.

Moreover, even if we encounter pirates, can it still be a good thing? If we don't talk about having our finances robbed, we may still be in danger of our lives! Who would want to meet pirates if we are normal?

As for the settlement...... How could this young man be alone, and how could he possibly deal with a team of pirates with loaded guns?

The more Captain Frank thought about it, the more he felt that Yang Tian was a little abnormal.

But at this moment......

"Ring, ring, ......" his phone rang.

"Excuse me, I'll answer the phone," Captain Frank politely apologized, then pulled out his phone.

A look at the caller ID...... It turned out to be the leader of the sea freight company to which he belonged.

"Hey, Mr. David?" said Captain Frank.

"It's me, Captain Frank, that I have something urgent to tell you," said Mr. David.

"What's the matter?" Captain Frank suddenly had a vague premonition in his heart.

"Yes, due to some force majeure factors, the partner has changed the terms of cooperation and asked for a three-day reduction in the delivery time of tomorrow's freighter," said Mr. David.

"What?" said Captain Frank, startled, "but the route we set up earlier is already the shortest safe route." How could it be possible to arrive three days earlier?"

"I understand, so, after discussion, the company decided to take some risks, change the route, reduce the detour distance, and go straight to the Gulf of Aden," Mr. David said.

"Uh, straight into the Gulf of Aden, reduce the detour distance?" Captain Frank was taken aback, and said, "No! This must not be! In that case, the pirates outside Soma will definitely not let us go!"

Mr. David said, "Don't worry so much. Frank, you're an old captain too, and you haven't been outside of Soma, and you're not bound to encounter pirates. Moreover, the company has decided to equip you with two armed security guards. They will keep you safe. ”

"Yes...... But it's too risky. I don't want to risk the safety of my crew and cargo!" Captain Frank was still a little unacceptable. "As I have already said, this is the company's arrangement, if you don't go, someone will only go instead of you," Mr. David said, "The company trusts you and will let you continue this transportation mission." Otherwise, we would have changed people a long time ago. Think about it, if you were someone else, you could do better than you

Is it going to make the ship safer?"

Captain Frank was silent for a moment.

He has been in this position for almost a decade and is very confident in his ability to do his job.

Although he knew that this task was dangerous, he couldn't refuse it when he thought that if he didn't do it, it would be equivalent to throwing the danger to others.

After being silent for a while, he finally nodded and said, "I understand." I will be serious about my preparations. ”

"Okay, I know that you must be reliable!" Mr. David was very satisfied, and said, "The security personnel arranged by the company will go directly to the ship to meet you tomorrow, and if you arrange them, you don't have to worry about pirates." Ordinary pirates don't rob armed ships. ”

"Understood," Captain Frank replied.

The phone hung up.

Captain Frank put down his phone and looked at Yang Tian in front of him, suddenly a little incomprehensible.

"You already knew the course was going to change?" said Captain Frank.

"Perhaps, but it doesn't matter," Yang Tian smiled, "Now, you are always in danger." So, do you want to consider making this deal with me? Anyway, even if I don't meet pirates, I'll give you money, so I won't lose anything. ”

Captain Frank was silent for a moment, and looked at Yang Tian carefully.

It must not be easy for this young man to be able to predict things that he didn't even know.

If you mess with it, you might get into big trouble.

Rather than so...... It's better to let him get on the boat.

After all, looking at this young man's appearance, it was completely like a second-class young man who had seen too much and wanted to compete with pirates.

Secondary 2 youth, generally not bad. Thereupon...... He thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "No, I won't make this deal with you. But, I can get you on board. ”
