Chapter 0135: Costo's Carrots and Sticks
"Ready...... You ready...... Switch the strings with the wind!"
"Tighten the rope!"
"Go downwind!"
"Prepare to drop the sails!"
"Paddle room, paddle left!"
"Raise the sail!"
On the gently undulating sea, the Flower sailed slowly along the current, stopping and stopping, or going in circles, or making a turn. The voice of Captain Costo, with its own horn effect, constantly sounded throughout the ship, giving various commands. Twelve sailors, scrambling to control the ship.
According to the volume and tonnage of the Flowers, twelve sailors were simply not enough to maneuver, and the full match was thirty sailors.
Thirty people's work, twelve teenagers to do it, still pure newcomers, the pressure can be imagined, the voyage of the Flower is also intermittent, and it is always impossible to sail smoothly to the goal.
But anyway.
Under Costor's command and guidance, the Flower still stuck to the seashore and stumbled towards the dock area to the north. Half a day later, the voyage integrated with teaching and learning successfully reached the destination.
It's a rocky beach.
The Flowers anchored in the bay for a short time as a lunchtime to train the sailors for swimming lessons.
"The near coast is not like the legend that sea monsters eat people, this is not the living area of sea monsters! Sea monsters live in the deep sea, and they basically do not encounter sea monsters when sailing in the near sea...... Of course, if you are unlucky, basking in the sun on the shore, you will be crawled over and eaten by a certain sea monster. β
Costor tried to dispel the apprentices' fears of deep water, but his words were clearly not up to par, and the apprentices were even more afraid to go into the water.
A swim on the beach can be tense for a long time, not to mention the deep water bay here.
"Captain, we already know how to swim. "There are sailor apprentices, whispering justification.
"Can deep water be the same as shallow water, it will never be the same, you have to overcome the fear of the blue waters, it will save your lives at a critical moment!"
"Why, we're on the boat, and we definitely won't run into the water with nothing to do. β
"Stupid! sailing in the sea, the waves often roll up the sailors and fall into the sea, if you can't swim, you don't even have time to support until the rescue!"
"Well, captain, I'm only here to be a sailor's apprentice, and I have no intention of sailing. β
"I don't have this plan, what kind of sailing are you going to learn how to sail, are you fooling me Costo!" Costo was furious, pointed at the nose of the sailor's apprentice, and roared, "I am the captain of the Flower appointed by the lord, and you will go to sea to trade for the lord, you will be the first sailors! You can fool me, but you dare to fool the lord?"
Sailor apprentices, only promises.
Suddenly I got on the thief ship.
Costor also gave up his kind words and persuaded him, and directly threatened: "I have been authorized by the lord to take full charge of navigation matters, and the advisor of Flower Town must also cooperate with me." Remember, whoever dares to evade or disobey my orders, I will hand you over to Lord Karl's patrol!"
Hearing the name of the patrol, the teenagers became even more timid.
The lords are indeed noble and inviolable, but they all say that the lords are the embodiment of mercy, and they are not afraid, only fearful. But the patrol is famous - Liszt has always wanted to build the patrol into a police station where "the police and the people are a family", but unfortunately there is no hope.
The existence of corporal punishment such as flogging is destined to be frightening.
Karl was even more meticulous in enforcing the rules to repay the lord's trust in him, but any civilians who made mistakes were directly whipped and beaten.
A whip refuses to release water.
As a result, everyone talks about patrols and turns color.
Seeing the faces of the teenagers, Costor was satisfied, and after waving the stick, he turned to swing the carrot: "Don't be afraid of the sea, the sea is the same as the land, we can farm on the land, we can sail on the sea." Going to sea is the right decision for you, there is endless wealth overseas, and there are women with huge boobs and huge butts!"
"Really...... Are there really women with big butts?" a teenager swallowed and foamed at the mouth, overcoming fear.
"Of course, I once went to an island that had just ended the war, and the women stood in a row, and everyone chose them. I picked a woman with the biggest ass......" Costor said in a reminiscent tone.
"And then, Captain?"
"Later?"
"yes, Captain, and then you and that big ass?"
"Later. Costor licked his lips, "Then I gave her three copper plates, in fact, with only two copper plates, she could get through the night, but I gave her one more." That towering mountain gives me an unparalleled experience, and I swear, it can suffocate your head in it!"
Costor gestured a circle with his hand.
Very large round shape.
The huge that made the teenagers jaw-dropping.
Goo-dong.
Goo-dong.
The teenagers swallowed their saliva.
"All right, the break is over, it's time for class, boys! If you want a rough woman, you have to study according to my requirements, and when you become qualified sailors, you can spend two copper plates and spend a wonderful night! Now, dive and swim!"
Teenagers, suddenly overcome their fears.
Screaming and throwing himself into the sea.
Costor pulled a wooden flask from his bosom, uncorked it, and took a sipβhe knew what the teenagers wanted, after all, he had been young.
After taking a sip of wine, he returned to the captain's quarters and carefully took out a one-meter-long cylinder from the box - this was the telescope sent by the servant sent by the lord yesterday, and the lord gave his telescope to the Flowers. It was this telescope that made him understand the lord's view of navigation!
"He longs for the sea more than any nobleman!" Costor felt that his future was bright, and that a nobleman who longed for the sea would undoubtedly support his voyage.
It is precisely because of this that he has the confidence to go to the executive office to work hard with the consultant Galtai to fight for benefits.
With the binoculars in hand, he walked out onto the deck.
The swaying deck was smoother to him than on land. He picked up the binoculars and began to look into the distance, as if suddenly the distant sight came to him.
It's a wonderful transformation, and it feels incredible.
"Only a noble nobleman like Lord Lords can make such an incredible item!"
He looked at the sea level in the distance, then at the smoke of the Thorn Ridge in the distance, at a few seabirds walking on the rocky beach, and then at the steepness of the rocky ridges on the shore.
Suddenly.
His brows furrowed slightly, and he saw that there seemed to be a cave on the cliff of the rocky mountain that was washed by the sea: "Cave? The mountain is not high here, will there be a cave, what kind of cave will it be? It seems that a seabird flew out of the cave just now, will there be a sea bird?"
The sea plover is a type of gulls seabird that nests on cliffs by the sea, and its eggs are very popular with the aristocracy.
Even some nobles will arrange for serfs to risk their lives to collect sea eggs.
"Sea eggs are an indispensable delicacy on the nobles' table, and if I find a place where sea birds nest en masse and donate it to my lord, my lord will be very happy and reward me with a lot of rewards!" he felt himself excited, "so that I will have the money to attract more sailor apprentices!"
