Chapter 102: Turning around for you
All roads lead to Rome, which is a little less rigorous or does not use the rules of this world, but it is very friendly to the Alexander.
The biggest gain of sailing in the Buddhist system is to be able to enjoy more different scenery, even if you need to go around a big circle and take many detours.
Fortunately, the Chambord Islands, the last stop that the outlaws could make before leaving for the New World, the Alexandria managed to arrive.
"Is this the Chambord Islands? There's really an atmospheric phase. ”
Standing in front of the bow of the boat, facing the sea breeze, Sean looked at the island, which is said to be composed of plant roots, and had to sigh, nature is really amazing.
The destination is about to arrive, and Sean can finally let go of his nervous heart for many days.
"Sanlang, remember, when we get to the island, buy more food, we can't always eat fish, if we continue to eat, your captain will become a fish, a real salted fish."
After choosing a stop, Sanlang walked towards Sean with a booklet in his hand and sweating profusely, he wanted to report the situation, but he didn't expect to hear Sean's words as soon as he came.
That's right, the lack of food is also caused by the Buddhist voyage, if they don't eat fish, they will starve to death, and whether the Alexander can run into an island that can be supplied is completely up to the sky.
Flipping through the booklet, Sanlang's heart was as empty as his hair.
"Captain, we don't have money, we can't buy anything."
Financial problems have always been a roadblock for a vigorous organization.
The Alexander was no exception, during this time, not only did it not encounter any islands that could be replenished, but even Sean's companions or merchant ships did not encounter a few.
The shyness in the bag is a very appropriate description.
Watching Sanlang point to the big zero on the booklet, Sean sighed in his heart, and then looked at Sanlang's increasingly thinning hair, and also felt a little self-blame.
If I knew it, I wouldn't be handsome.
Since Moria is a dead man, and during the subsequent voyage, Sean also knows that there are still the so-called Seven Martial Seas in the world.
It stands to reason that if he carried Moria's head to Marin, he would not be able to get a legal robbery certificate.
Who called himself not in a good state at the time, plus people died like lights out, and Sean didn't go to Moria's castle to search properly.
There was still not a penny left on the Alexander's public account.
As the saying goes, a penny is hard to beat a hero.
Sean didn't know how to make money, except for robbery, he really couldn't figure out any other way to get money faster.
"Is there any way to do it?"
Sean looked at Sanlang, expecting to get a suitable answer from his mouth.
Now that there is less and less hair, Sean believes that Sanlang's wisdom must have improved, not to mention that although Sanlang is not the most improved person on the Alexander, he is the person who watches the most news from all over the world, and the more he knows about things around the world, the more he should know how to make money.
"I can't help it, captain, I'm afraid we'll have to postpone it."
Sanlang spread his hands and said helplessly, it's not that he doesn't work hard, but in this place, there is no way to get money quickly.
Sean asked puzzledly, "What do you say, let's stay up at night tonight, can't we borrow a little politely?" ”
Does this guy want to go to the tavern to be a troubadour by himself, but he doesn't know what to talk about except for the mature content, and if he continues to be a troubadour, the book will be finished.
No, no, as a self-motivated young man, Sean will definitely not die big.
"No money?"
The scrutinizing gaze looked at the three waves. The implication is self-evident, after all, the Alexander is a pirate ship, and paying the crew is more important.
Although there will be occasional financial crises, you can take credit, and it will be the same when you have more money in the future.
At least, Sanlang has been paid for so many months, and on the financially troubled Alexander, he urgently needs to set an example as a first-class navigator.
Sanlang swallowed his saliva, he understood in seconds.
Open your pockets, although you already have a mother-in-law, you don't need to save any wife or anything like that.
The small money that can go into his pocket is once again taken out, and he is not a rich person who rivals the country, so he still has to feel distressed.
The captain of the Alexander, and the three waves who might become the co-captain, sat cross-legged on the deck, and took out their pockets, not to mention a hundred thousand, even if there were 80,000 Baileys, it would be enough for the Alexander to resupply the Chambord Islands.
"I didn't expect you to be such a man, let me tell you, a man who can't save money can't get along in the world."
Ninety-eight thousand are still short of the goal of 100,000 Bailey, yes, that's all.
Sean doesn't know what Sanlang is doing these days, hasn't he paid him a salary?
Putting the 1,800 Bailey belonging to the three waves into his pocket, Sean snorted lightly, looking down on the man who had no money in his pocket the most.
"Captain, that's my money."
"I know it's your money, and now that the Alexander is in financial crisis, as the chief navigator of the Alexander, it is necessary for you to live and die with the Alexander."
Three waves: ""
Gather all the crew, and the money you have is just over 10,000 Baileys.
What can you do with this money?
It was probably enough for a group of them to spend in a day in the Chambord Islands, and it seems that a lone musician, Brooke, was quite prescient enough to refuse to join Sean.
God knows if this skeleton that has lived for many years will be used as public expense a month after boarding the ship.
"Captain,
Don't you save money? ”
Sanlang is very depressed, one thousand eight is not much, but it is also his own hard work.
Just because of Sean's words, it is going to become Sean personally, no, the public expense of the Alexander, which is neither scientific nor reasonable.
"Me?!" Sean pulled out two hundred Baileys and waved them at the sky.
After a while, a burst of birdsong came.
It's him!
It was the familiar figure, with his little bag, rushing towards Sean without hesitation.
Gaba!
Sean killed a news bird, experience +2, gold +5, harvest a piece of bird meat, and the title of news bird killer was upgraded again, becoming the king of news birds, which is gratifying.
"At this time, it is necessary for everyone as the crew of the Alexander to think outside the box and contribute to our better tomorrow."
Dimly lit room, quite a few people stayed here.
However, the irascible people are often in the minority in the world, although they are not very comfortable in this small cage, and the air is a little muddy.
However, a quiet atmosphere can always keep a positive mind.
Looking at the shackles clasped to his hands, Sean smiled with satisfaction.
Who said there is no way to get money quickly, isn't it?
Although this auction house has a bad look, Sean, who gets the money, will not worry much about them.
After all, with a simulated mask, anyone can see that the person who is about to be auctioned off is the legendary sea thief Sean with a bounty of 500 million Bailey.
With the money, they can buy sufficient supplies and coat the Alexander.
It's not the magic of the magician, it's the membrane of the mage.
As the name suggests, how does a ship dive to the bottom of the sea and sail on the bottom of the sea?
Anyway, Sean doesn't want to figure it out, so it's better to get a submarine.
However, there is no way.
The governments of the world, including the navy, are a very petty group.
The convenient passage will not be opened for Sean and the others, and they will not be able to have a naval passage to the New World.
This is the so-called authoritarianism, which only requires the passage of officers and soldiers, and does not allow innocent people like Sean to also drink some soup. Ahem, don't take it seriously. Parenthesis laughs.
Therefore, it is because of this special requirement that an indispensable profession flourishes in the Chambord Islands.
Coater!
(If you want to be crooked, face the wall for three seconds, thank you.) )、
Sanlang not only needs to replenish food, but also find a reliable coater.
They must borrow Fish-Man Island in order to reach the New World.
And in the deep sea, you can probably only leave your life to God.
As long as there is a small hole in the bubble film on the Alexander, then their journey will be considered to be the end.
Not seeking the right fit, only seeking the most expensive, has also become the requirement of the three waves they are looking for.
Fortunately, Sean is also young and strong, and the selling price is not bad, enough for the three waves to find a coater with a good reputation.
"If only you agreed to me robbing the Draconians."
Sean muttered in pieces.
At this moment, the old man who had been silent, like a dead man in a cage, heard Sean's words, sat up and said, "That's not good, young man, I'm afraid you haven't eaten too much and have nothing to do." ”
"Huh?!"
This old man doesn't think that when he is old, he can teach people casually.
Sean looked at the old man dissatisfied, if he didn't want to make a fuss, he would definitely let the old man taste what a punching bag big fist is.
"Can't talk about it? You have the ability to kill me! ”
didn't want to say more, Sean sprayed the old man twice, and leaned on the cage, ready to sleep.
It is said that the auction will not take place until the evening, by which time the Alexander will be successfully coated.
When the time comes, he will come to rob and return to the Alexander with the booty, and it is estimated that he will be able to cover the wages of the three waves for the next thirty years.
Sean also wanted to see what price he could be sold for.
It is said that in the first district of the Chambord Islands, such a trade in human beings is very prosperous.
The old man saw that Sean ignored him, lowered his head, and the voice of the chain was very small, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Yawning, Sean followed the host to the stage.
The audience, some wearing masks, and some grinning, seemed to dislike the scene was not enthusiastic enough.
Looking at such an atmosphere, Sean almost couldn't help but speak, and there was a troubadour's Persona on the spot, telling about the unknown secrets.
Fortunately, he couldn't hold back, after all, the "Otherworldly Travel Journal" he had been writing could no longer withstand the blow of his opening again.
That's right, this is the auction, like many rich and noble families, the Qi family came here to listen to Sean's stand-up comedy.
It's a pity that the stage doesn't belong to Sean alone, and there are three other people who are commodities on either side of Sean.
The C position has always been a handsome person, and Sean, who is standing in the middle, feels that there is nothing wrong with this arrangement.
Look at the big man on the left, he looks like a giant, I really don't know if he also fled to the sea because of the famine in his hometown, borrowed it and was caught and sold here.
It's really hard to feed such a big person.
It is the advantage of being small that you eat less, and in the face of famine, you don't have to worry about the food reserves being consumed too quickly.
There are two people on the right-hand side, one is a man with scars all over his body, and it is not difficult to see from the man's eyes
out, without a trace of raw aura.
It's like being tired of this hopeless world, as if whoever does anything to him doesn't matter, as long as it helps him end this miserable life.
The only thing that was a little bad was the old man who wanted to educate Sean, and to talk about it, this group of strong men was on stage, but as a result, a crumbling white-haired old man mixed in their circle.
Isn't this saying that Sean is of the same grade as this old man?!
It's unbearable, it's unbearable.
If he didn't want to see how much he was worth, Sean would definitely kill the owner of this venue on the spot, so he wouldn't have a little eyesight.
No matter how complicated Sean's mind was, the auction was held on time.
It looks like Sean's finale, or rather, good, high-quality goods have long been sold out.
The audience was not as enthusiastic as they imagined.
The first was the giant standing on Sean's left hand.
The appearance of the giant also won a little gimmick for this unhurried auction.
There is no need for the host to introduce more, after all, the giant race is not uncommon in this sea world, if a fish man is placed in the public's field of vision, it must be a prosperous world.
"Twelve million Baileys."
"Fifteen million Bailey."
"I'll give 30 million, you scumbags, don't want to rob me."
It was an old woman full of fat who spoke, and Sean understood the old woman's desire to buy the giant.
As the saying goes, thirty is like a tiger, forty is like a wolf, if it is well maintained, the age of the old woman can also be summed up in the age of a wolf.
This is the advantage of women, men will only be overworked, resulting in old age, that thing is a urinary catheter, women will only fight more and more bravely, not to mention that it can also delay aging and rejuvenation.
"Fifty million."
It seems that you can't be too arrogant.
The price of 30 million Baileys is already a lot of premium for buying a giant.
After all, if you buy it back, you have to eat and drink, and according to the amount of food of the giant, if you don't use it well, you will have to lose a lot of money.
Obviously, the 30 million old woman didn't expect someone to cut off her beard, so she glanced at the person who was competing with her, and she had no extra money to give up this competition.
Sean felt that the old man was actually quite suitable for an old woman.
And, unlike a giant, the old woman didn't have to spend much to take it.
No one will buy an old man to go back, can he buy it back and be a father?
But not necessarily for old women.
As long as a man is well recuperated and eats more leeks and kidneys, even at the age of an old man, at least, he can still be of some use.
Giants are bought, and those who hang their heads are dejected, and once people are treated as commodities, their dignity will be completely lost at the same moment.
Next, Sean puffed out his chest, thinking that a wealthy family must buy him back.
In this way, he does not need to use such unskilled means as robbery, just staring at a family wool is enough to get a lot of money.
"Next, from the dismissed Navy Colonel, the price starts at twenty-five million."
Incredibly, Sean looked at the man on his right, not to mention whether this guy used to be a navy, even if it was a navy, he couldn't escape the viciousness of capital.
It wasn't because the man's previous occupation was in the Navy that caused Sean's shock.
After all, the navy, which has left the company, cannot be called a navy.
From this point it can be removed, and it is auctioned in order of identity.
If it's not identity, shouldn't it be a sequential auction?!
The giant was bought, isn't it himself next?
Sean stared at the host's back, a cautious pirate would never swallow this breath.
Soon, because of the gimmick of the former naval colonel, the man was quickly bought by another somewhat girly mustachioed man.
Ask for your own blessings, Mr. Navy.
Silently praying for the man, Sean looked at the old man who had another item besides him.
is still a short-sighted old man, Sean feels that no matter how you look at it, his advantage is particularly great.
This is called the psychology of sand sculpture.
No matter how much you resist something, when you reluctantly participate but find that you are dispensable, your psychology will definitely become the other extreme.
Inspecting everyone present, Sean felt that although he did not accept the reality of being auctioned, if you had no eyesight, then don't blame himself for writing you down in a small notebook.
It was as if someone was not satisfied with the rest of the goods, an old man with gray hair, and a young man with a scar on his face, which greatly affected his appearance.
It seems that he has never brought such a bad merchandise, and the host also feels a little big.
"How much is that old man? I'm out five million Baileys. ”
Rush to answer, this behavior, often occurs in the third event of repetition.
The one who spoke was still smug that no one had robbed him, but he didn't realize that he had become the biggest character on the list in the mind of a cautious captain.
Five million, that's the price of the old man.
For such an old man, apart from making soup, Sean couldn't think of any other value worth worth so much Bailey.
When the old man left the field, Sean saw the old man wink at him, pointed to the collar stuck in their necks, and then left under the guidance of the staff.
Now, the only thing left on stage is Sean.
He's probably still looking for the guy who turned around for himself.
Do you want to tell a story? It's a tough choice.
