Chapter Forty-Eight: Ranger Grant

Similar to the Atlanta docks, laborers at the end of the day mostly take a walk along the beach to blow the wind and then find a container stack for the night.

On the New World, the sailors were waiting for him.

"Captain, according to your instructions, all the supplies have been loaded onto the ship. Hans reported.

The two large ships I bought in the afternoon, one loaded with weapons and ammunition, and the other was a variety of daily necessities, which could be used to trade with the natives when they arrived in the Americas.

Zheng Fei nodded, looked up at the night sky, the floating speed of the dark clouds was roughly estimated at the wind speed, and ordered: "Lift the anchor and raise the sails!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a large group of people rushing on the shore, waving at Zheng Fei in a gossiping manner.

"What's going on?" Zheng Fei frowned, jumped ashore, and motioned for them to be quiet.

"Captain, do you need sailors?" they said eagerly, eager to get the job.

"No, you don't. Zheng Fei replied.

Of course, there is a shortage of sailors for the fleet with two big ships, but he doesn't dare to use these people in front of him, the reason is very simple, he doesn't believe in them, and the sailors he needs don't have to be great, but they must be absolutely loyal!

What he is most wondering about now and worrying about is where Alonso is? can become the richest man in Barcelona, Alonso, who is very deep in the city, could not be so lax, maybe now he is watching himself from some dark corner.

was refused, and the crowd that came to enlist the sailors suddenly became agitated, waving their arms and scolding loudly, Zheng Fei appeased them, but to no avail.

Their love became more and more excited, especially when they saw Hans Santiago grimacing on the deck, they were instantly furious, and of course their anger was going to be sprinkled on Zheng Fei.

"Guys, flatten him!" the bald man at the front rolled up his sleeves and stared at Zheng Fei viciously.

"Hey, hey, hey, listen to me!" Seeing that the situation was out of control, Zheng Fei took a few steps back, who knew what this group of reckless men would do on impulse.

But fortunately, the sailors were on the ship, and it was enough to deter them by getting a few guns to point their guns at them, and he thought so, and his heart calmed down.

However, no sooner had the idea been in his mind for half a second than the stupid sailors jumped down with clubs in their hands to protect him.

He cursed secretly, there were at least a hundred of them, and if they really fought, they would have no chance of winning, unless their sailors were all Santiago.

The enraged crowd slowly approached, clenching their fists and ready to pounce.

Zheng Fei bit his lip and thought, it seems that he won't be able to leave tonight if he goes on like this, why don't you agree to accept them first?

"Bang!"

A loud bang startled the seabirds on the beach and fluttered their wings in all directions, and when they turned their heads to look, they saw a man in a bowler hat and a cloak standing on a high pile of crates, with a sparkling pipe in his mouth, two long swords pinned to his waist, and a musket on his shoulder.

Yo, Zorro, this is Zheng Fei's first feeling of this person, this outfit is really too similar.

As the crowd was shocked, the man spoke.

"I can't get used to bullying less with more. With a low, hoarse voice, he raised his head so that people could see his piercing eyes.

The bald man who had rolled up his sleeves before shouted, "Savior, do you dare to put down your gun and practice alone with me?!"

After a moment of silence, the man didn't say anything, jumped out of the cargo box and put down the gun, took out the long sword on his waist and handed it to the bald head, and said calmly: "What's your name?"

"Hmph, my name is Ares, the god of war!" the bald head sneered.

"It's not a joke, tell me your name, it's the most basic etiquette of a duel. ”

"Oh, for God's sake, my name is Hogan, what about you?"

"Grant, from Madrid. After saying that, he made a dashing and sophisticated sword lift.

The bald head froze in place, and there was no movement.

"Grant" sighed and whispered in the crowd, and only admiration remained in the eyes that were filled with anger a few seconds ago.

After being silent for a while, the bald head lowered his head and held the long sword in both hands and respectfully presented it, and said, "I admit defeat." ”

The situation changed too quickly, Zheng Fei looked at the person named Grant, and couldn't help but be curious about his identity, it was rare for him to be able to shock his opponent with his reputation alone.

"Who is he?" Zheng Fei asked Santiago, because he noticed that Santiago's eyes were also full of respect, you must know that this guy is usually the best in the world.

"Oh my God, don't you know? He is a famous swordsman in Western Europe, an enemy of the upper classes, and an idol of the poor at the bottom. ”

"Five thousand, why don't these people rush up and knock him down?"

"Well, as I said, he is the idol of the poor at the bottom, just like a legend, if anyone breaks this legend for money, he will definitely drown in spit. ”

After listening to the explanation, Zheng Fei shrugged his shoulders and curled the corners of his mouth, it seemed that he had met a big man, Grant the Western European Ranger.

Not long ago, the crowd was still angry, and at this time they were all staring reverently at Grant, their legend.

Grant put away his sword, smiled heartily at everyone, and said, "Disperse, you will recruit the patrol police like this, then I will be in trouble." ”

"Grant, my son likes you so much!" someone shouted with joy.

"Then sue him for me, I like him too!"

Hearing what Grant said, Zheng Fei understood why he became a legend, his vigorous skills are one thing, and more importantly, his affinity is deeply popular.

For Grant's safety, the crowd reluctantly dispersed, and Grant tidied up his collar and prepared to go to the city to find a hotel to stay.

How could Zheng Fei let him go like this, and called, "Grant, can you come over for a drink?"

"I only drink beer. ”

"Ha, as much water in the Mediterranean as there is, I have as many beers. ”

"You have such a good sense of humor. Grant smiled and walked over happily.

"Thank you for your help. Zheng Fei said sincerely.

"I just can't get used to people bullying too much. After a pause, Grant noticed his sailing suit and asked, "Are you a navigator?"
