Chapter 35: The Silent Swordsman (5)
At this time, Massimo looked a little embarrassed, his clothes were not smooth, his flowing hair looked scattered, and the sword that looked silver before fell to the side, and it seemed to be dull. The clothes that were originally clean are now covered with dirt on the ground, and they don't look like nobles at all.
But Massimo didn't care at all, his eyes still revealed the light of excitement, he glanced at Nangong Yu deeply, and said: "Luca, it's a pity that you are Robert's servant, you go to the barracks and talk to Robert, just say that I, Massimo, want you, if someone embarrasses you, you will report my name." ”
After speaking, he stood up, patted his body casually, picked up the saber on the side, beckoned to the captain who was still in a sluggish state, and left here first.
Seeing this, Marco and Anthony hurriedly came to Nangong Yu's side, and Anthony said to Nangong Yu enviously: "You are really lucky, you have met Massimo, and if you get his approval, you will definitely be able to get ahead in the future." ”
As if hearing Anthony's words, Massimo suddenly stopped, looked back, but did not speak, only a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Anthony suddenly shivered. Massimo looked at Nangong Yu again, then turned and strode away.
Nangong Yu looked at the back of Massimo leaving, smiled slightly, and said, "I feel that he is not bad, although he is a little arrogant, but he is very straightforward." ”
Anthony said angrily, "Not bad? How can it be good, but quite good." Then again, I wanted to ask you before, why you don't look like us, your hair is black, your eyes are black, your skin is yellow, and you beat Massimo, and now you are famous. After saying that, he also looked at the crowd around him.
Nangong Yu also looked around, he had been focusing on the battle with Massimo before, and he didn't pay attention to the side, but at this time, he found that the surrounding crowd was pointing at Nangong Yu and talking about something.
Nangong Yu frowned, unwilling to continue discussing this topic with Anthony, so he said to Marco: "Let's get out of here, let's go to Massimo's fleet first." Immediately, he also walked in the direction where Massimo had left.
Marco followed behind Nangong Yu and said to Nangong Yu, "Is Massimo really powerful?"
Nangong Yu looked at Marco and said, "Aren't you not interested in these?"
Marco said, "I just heard Anthony say that he has good swordsmanship, but I can't see it. ”
Nangong Yu shook his head helplessly, and said to Marco: "In my opinion, Massimo's swordsmanship is not worth learning at all, but judging from the battle just now, he is very good in all aspects compared to others. I think his swordsmanship should have learned a lot of people's moves, but he didn't understand it well, so it was disorganized. ”
"He's such a weirdo," Marco said. ”
Nangong Yu said: "Maybe this is what the nobles look like, by the way, why are you suddenly interested in these." ”
Marco said: "I just thought, if you decide to go on your own, I plan to go with you, although I will only repair ships, but I think that if I go to sea in the future, boatmen will definitely be indispensable, but the sea is not calm, I also want to know more." ”
Nangong Yu smiled, patted Marco on the shoulder, and said: "It's not simple, it's not easy for others to say, I can teach you some basic things, as long as you are willing to persevere, I guarantee that you will be much better than ordinary people in the future." ”
Marco was pleasantly surprised, "Really, can you surpass Massimo?"
Nangong Yu thought for a while and said, "Yes, it can be, but it may take a long time." ”
Mark said, "How long will it take?"
Nangong Yu said without hesitation: "Ten years." ”
Marco's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Ten years, why does it take so long?"
Nangong Yu said angrily: "Do you think you can reach his level in three or two days? In other words, if I want to learn how to repair a ship and reach your level, how long do you think it will take me?"
Marco thought about it for a moment, and suddenly had nothing to say. This is actually the simplest truth, every technology or ability, without the accumulation of time, can never succeed.
Nangong Yu patted Marco's shoulder with a smile and said, "You don't have to be discouraged, there will be more time in the future, just make a little progress every day." ”
Marco smiled helplessly and said, "I don't expect it to reach your level, it may be more practical for me to concentrate on how to repair the ship." ”
Nangong Yu smiled and nodded.
"Two, Massimo's fleet is over there. Anthony said, pointing his finger forward.
Nangong Yu looked in the direction of Anthony's finger, and saw that about fifty paces away, there was a ship that didn't look very big, and with his extraordinary eyesight, he could clearly distinguish that there were already a lot of people gathered on that ship. And on the dock next to the ship, there were many people gathered around, not knowing what was going on.
Nangong Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's go over and see, compared to Massimo, it will attract many people to go to sea with him." Then he walked briskly over there.
Marco Anthony followed closely and walked closer, there was a wooden table next to the ship, and behind the table sat the previous captain, to Nangong Yu's stunned, this captain was actually recruiting the crew himself, generally speaking, it was not the captain who was responsible for recruiting the crew, but his subordinates or adjutants. In front of the table, there was a large piece of paper with a line of writing on it: Recruit crews.
Nangong Yu asked Anthony, "Anthony, why are there so many people here? Could it be that they give a high honorarium? There were not so many people in the last fleet." ”
Anthony shook his head and said, "I don't know, it stands to reason that the honorarium should be about the same, and there won't be much difference." ”
Nangong Yu smiled bitterly: "No matter what, let's take a look first." ”
At this time, there were already about a hundred people who had come to sign up in front of them, and many of them had a longing glint in their eyes, and their eyes were burning, and they were eager to join the fleet immediately.
There were three people in front of Nangong Yu and them, and it seemed that they had come together, only to hear one of the strong men say: "I hope I can have good luck this time, so that I can join this fleet." ”
The other, who was on the thinner side, also said, "Finally let me wait for them, I've been waiting at the dock for days." ”
There was also a fat man who frowned and said, "I don't know what this commission is, so many people, I'm afraid it won't be our turn." ”
There are definitely a lot of similar conversations in the queue, and most of the crowd has a lot of hope on their faces.
Nangong Yu's gaze didn't stay on these applicants for too long, his gaze looked at the front of the line, that is, the place where he registered, his eyes and hearing were raised under the effect of Yin and Yang Jue, and he could vaguely hear the conversation there.
The captain who sat behind the desk and was in charge of accepting the registration looked lazy, wearing a standard captain's robe, and his foreign trade was mediocre, so he didn't look like a captain with great prestige, and even less energetic than the captain of the previous fleet.
