The ship's name was given to Princess Lilith, entirely after Soram to amuse Lilith. Before setting sail, Soram didn't even think to name the ship, but when he saw that the little girl had been crying all the time since she got on the boat, Soram made her laugh with it.

But it doesn't seem to have any effect, the little girl left her mother for the first time, she was full of misery, she was not moved by foreign objects at all, she was still in tears, and Soram had no choice, so she could only let Isabella take the little girl to the room to continue to comfort.

At this time, Solam was lying on a canvas deck chair, basking in the sun and blowing the wind on the deck. There was no way, he really couldn't stand the little girl's heart-rending cry.

And such a little child, Solam can't beat or scold, not to mention that Solam really can't bear to do anything to such a cute little girl. So I had to hide on the deck and blow the wind.

But Soram wasn't bored, and he and the captain had a good conversation.

This captain's name is Barry, his hometown is Waterdeep, and he used to do the work of a captain, traveling all year round and traveling to many places. However, if you often walk by the river, you will inevitably fall into the water.

On a previous voyage, he encountered a major storm, and although the people were fine, the hull was badly damaged. He happened to run into a pirate, and he couldn't even run, so he became a prisoner of the pirate, and then he was sold to Port Carlin as a slave.

He was then given to Soram by Lazag, most of whom were his original crew, so he was familiar with the sailors. He was also worried about what the immediate future would look like.

But after talking to Soram, my heart settled down a little. Because Solam had told him before that he had no interest in treating them as slaves, only as employees, and as long as he behaved well, he would not only let them go, but also give them a sum of money.

It was a stroke of luck for Barry to be freed after being treated as a slave, and he didn't expect to be free one day.

So whether what Soram said is true or false, his impression of Soram has changed greatly, and having such a promise is better than nothing, at least there is hope. So when he saw Soram blowing the wind alone on the deck, he plucked up the courage to talk to Solam.

Anyway, Soram is also his boss, so it's nothing to please.

However, during this conversation, Barry found that Solam was actually very easy to speak, and he did not discriminate against Barry, but on the contrary, he used an equal tone to chat with Barry very energetically.

Gradually, Barry also felt that Soram's words about letting them go were most likely not lies, so he gradually opened up the conversation.

Barry is a very experienced captain, he has been floating on the sea since he was fourteen years old, from a trainee sailor, all the way to the captain, for more than thirty years, he has traveled to almost all the coastal cities of the continent of Faerun.

Absolutely knowledgeable, talking about some interesting anecdotes from all over the world, the head is the way, and the listening Soram relish. Solam, on the other hand, has read a lot of books, and although he hasn't been to many places, he is also very knowledgeable, so it is easy for him to tell Barry some strange things.

So the two of them chatted on the deck, and at the end, Solam took out a bottle of wine and talked to Barry over a drink.

"Captain Barry, is there anyone else in your hometown?" After chatting about a topic, Solam took a sip of his wine and asked inadvertently.

When Barry heard this, he was silent for a moment, and even the smile he had just smiled was gone, and after taking a sip of wine, he said with a wry smile: "There is a woman and two children, both girls, one is ten years old and the other is only five years old. ”

Soram saw his face change and knew that he had said the wrong thing, but he couldn't swallow it even if he had said it. So he patted Barry on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, you'll come back to them, I'll do what I say. Otherwise, when you get to Asterkara, you can find someone to bring a letter back, so that they don't worry. ”

"Really?" Barry didn't expect Soram to allow him to contact his family, who were slaves no matter how they spoke.

"Of course, I said, I didn't treat you as slaves, so what's wrong with you contacting your family? Anyway, you were given to me by someone else, and I didn't spend any money, so even if I let you go, I didn't lose anything. ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much!" Barry didn't listen to what Soram said later, he only knew that he would be able to contact his family after he arrived in Astkara.

It's been two months since his accident, and I don't know how worried my family is.

"Hehe, no thanks, after all, you will have to drive this ship in the future, otherwise, you can work for me, anyway, my ship can't be idle, and you can make some money back then." Do you think it's okay? ”

"Of course no problem!" When Barry heard this, he agreed without hesitation. In fact, there is really no hesitation, his ship and cargo have been robbed, and the compensation alone is a large amount, and it is estimated that the little money in his family will be wiped out.

Being able to work for Soram can be regarded as having something to eat, and you can make some money, at least you can't make your family hungry, so why refuse?

"So where are you going to run this ship? It's not me who blows, I know the routes of the West Coast! ”

"Which route? I really didn't think about it......"

Solam is so unplanned, he always wants to come out one by one, and he heard Isabella say that it was good to take the sea route, so he didn't think about it so much. Just bought the ship. If he hadn't admired Barry at this time, he wouldn't have thought about what would happen to this ship.

Now Soram thinks that it is impossible to really put aside the boat that he bought for hundreds of thousands, right? But now that Solam wants to think about it, how can Soram know how many lines to take? He didn't know anything about it either.

But fortunately, at this time, Isabella walked out of the tail building, and Soram hurriedly waved to Isabella and motioned for her to come over. "Isabella! This way! ”

Seeing Isabella's response, Soram turned to Barry and said, "You can talk to her about these things, I'm not very familiar with them." ”

Barry looked at Soram a little dumbfounded, feeling as if he had met the legendary loser.

After a short time, Isabella came to the two of them, and Soram asked, "How is Lilith?" ”

"Crying and crying and falling asleep." Isabella said with a smile. Children, even if they are sad, their energy is limited, and they are tired after crying for so long, so in Isabella's comfort, they finally can't resist the drowsiness and fall asleep.

"That's good, you still have a way to deal with children, as soon as I hear her crying, my head is big." Soram first praised Isabella, and then pointed to Barry and said, "By the way, in the future, this ship will be handed over to Barry to be in charge, didn't you say that you want to do shipping business?" He's familiar with the routes, so you can discuss it with him. ”

After saying that, Soram lay down on the chaise longue again, he had no interest in this kind of thing, it was better to take a good nap.

************

It's boring at sea, and so is Solam, who loses interest in the sights around him after a burst of freshness has passed. At first, looking at the endless sea around him, Soram thought it was very interesting.

After all, Solam has been in this world for so many years, and he has never seen the sea, but as time passes, Solam is tired of this unchanging scene, no matter where he looks, it is blue water, and it is strange that he never gets tired of looking at it.

In fact, anyone who has been out on the sea will tell you that the most torturous thing at sea is boredom, and at sea, you can't go anywhere else except by boat. And there is only such a place on the ship, and people will feel bored after a long time.

So basically the vast majority of sailors are drunkards, and as long as they are drunk, they don't know anything, so that time can pass.

In addition to drinking, the second most popular activity is gambling.

Although Soram likes to drink, he doesn't like to get drunk, so he doesn't hesitate to throw himself into gambling. On the sea boat, the most popular way to gamble is to shake the dice, the rules are simple, that is, guess the size, is the individual will.

And it has to be said that gambling is indeed a good way to kill time (cherish life, stay away from gambling), and those sailors can concentrate on yelling for a few quick breads for a long time. In fact, how big can you play when gambling on a boat? It's all a bunch of poor sailors.

What's more, most of these people are slaves, where do they get the money? So I can only bet on my lunch, and the dishes, soups and other things are not very good as bets, so I can only use bread.

However, this situation changed after Solam got involved. Because it's really not suitable for gambling......

When Soram first came, everyone was very nervous, after all, Soram was not only the boss, but also the owner of many people, so when Soram was full of interest to participate in gambling.

Most people refuse, after all, they are rough people, and it is inevitable that they will be rude when gambling. As the saying goes, there are no fathers and sons in the casino, but the question is, this is just talk, do you dare to burst into foul language when playing cards with your leader?

Don't dare, those sailors don't dare either. But Solam had to participate, and the others didn't dare to say anything, so they could only play with Solam. Soram didn't bet on bread with them, but took out a bunch of change, which was borrowed from Isabella, how could Soram have change on him.

So just like that, the sailors laid bread, and he gave change.

But after playing for less than half an hour, Solam lost all the change in his hand, at first, those sailors did not dare to make a mistake, when gambling, they were honest, like playing mahjong, quieter than the old man and the old lady.

But later, they gradually let go, because they found that Solam's quality was not much higher, and when they lost, they were shouting and screaming, crying and scolding their mother. And Solam doesn't care about those people exploding.

After all, this is the kind of excitement, Soram actually doesn't like gambling, he likes this lively atmosphere. If he wanted to be quiet, he might as well go to sleep, why run below deck and play dice with them?

In this way, Soram was in the sailor's cabin, played until the evening, and then went away. There's no way, his luck is too stinky, it's just a bright light, he opens it when he presses it big, he opens it big when he presses it small, how can he play it?

Although I don't care about money, it's too devastating to lose like this. Solam actually didn't lose much, plus the previous change, Soram also lost 300 gold coins.
