CH.107 The Mine Master

Red Rose Harbour is always a busy scene, with ships coming in and out, each for a different purpose.

The last batch of material to be delivered to the Tornamaki was a herd of live chickens in cages and two dozen live sheep on a leash.

The dragon pirates do not transport goods, and there are rich warehouses on board, so instead of being idle, it is better to raise some livestock and keep them to be slaughtered and eaten at sea. Tang Ke also specially bought a batch of condiments to prepare to eat the mutton on the boat.

This time, thanks to the help of One Ear, Donk expressed his gratitude by drinking a drink with One Ear before setting sail.

After a round of drinking, Tang Ke wiped the grease on his mouth and smiled: "Bote, after eating this meal with you, I have to go, if it's too numb, I won't say it, you take care of yourself." ”

Although the nickname of One Ear is very catchy, Bot doesn't like it, and Donk still has to call the magician Bot when he talks.

One ear shook his finger and said with an excited smile: "Don Ke, don't be in a hurry to say goodbye, I'm here to tell you one thing this time, I want to get on your ship, I wonder if you welcome me?" ”

Tang Ke's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "You want to join our pirate group?" Aren't you from the Pirate City? ”

"The pirate city is free, and if I leave this fat shortage, there will be a new person to replace me soon. I had always dreamed of becoming a qualified magician, but I never had the opportunity. During this time of repairing the Sky, I found 'her' to be really nice, and I was willing to accompany her and heal her wounds when she needed me. One ear's explanation dispelled Donk's concerns.

Donk felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and agreed to it with a smile.

"Ding! You have a new crew member. ”

In fact, during Donk's pirate journey, the system has been constantly expanding, and when he meets Wendy, there are more sea elf crew members in the list of recruits, and when he meets Franky, the system has more recruits for undead seamen.

And now, he can recruit the Magician!

As long as he has enough money and enough materials, he can build his own magic ship!

Tang Ke was overjoyed, continued to push the cup with one ear, drank heartily, and inquired about the origin of one ear.

One Ear once joined two pirate groups, but neither of them went well, and the first pirate group went to sea unfavorably, and did not make any money. In the second pirate group, he had a friction with the commander, his ears were cut off, and he was exiled to an isolated island, and almost committed suicide by drinking a bullet because he couldn't stand the loneliness on the island.

Because One Ear had served on two pirate regiments and had participated in a raid on a royal caravan, the bounty was higher.

Tonk's face was flushed with drunkenness, and he knew a little about one ear, and the two of them left the tavern and boarded the boat at the last group.

The Evil Dragon Pirate Regiment is fully staffed and has sufficient supplies, and sets sail in the red morning sun.

There were many new seafaring talents in the regiment, and the three ships were piloted more smoothly than when the pirates controlled the sails themselves. Now the regiment has expanded to nearly 300 people, and it has regained its vitality.

Donk drank the wine, and was groggy at first, but under the blowing of the sea breeze, he was much more awake. He saw that the newly promoted Owen was directing his men to pull the ropes, and he was also a bit of a small boss.

Owen also saw Donk, smiled twice, gave a sailor salute, and touched his forehead with his finger.

Donk waved his hand, motioning for Owen to go about his business and not care.

Now that the Dragon Pirates are gaining momentum, everyone in the group seems to be happy, but Donk finds an unhappy person - Dew.

Dew climbed off the mast and jumped straight down the middle, but her skills were getting better and better. She walked past the laughing pirates, her head bowed, looking a little lost. Although she has been at sea for so long, she still maintains her original attire, preferring to wear a headband and stick a feather on it.

"Seventeen-year-old, what are you thinking there?" Sitting on the wooden box, Donk asked.

Unaware of herself, she walked forward with her head down, until a large hand reached out to her eyes and snapped her fingers, and she cheered up as if she had woken up from a dream. She looked sideways and saw Donk smiling.

Reluctantly responded with a smile, and naturally sat down on another wooden box beside Donk, chatting casually.

"The Dragon Pirates are amazing. No matter how big the blow is, it will pick itself up in a short time. Dew said enviously, her brown skin made her teeth whiter.

"Of course, we are pirates, and pirates are not allowed to be low, sad, or give up." Donk stroked Dew's head like a big brother, "But how are you listless little pirate?" ”

Hua Lu's eyelids drooped, and her eyes were filled with mist.

"There's no news of my sister in Port Red Rose."

Tang Ke suddenly realized that Hualu didn't go to sea with him to make a lot of money, but to find her sister who was sold, and maybe after Hualu found her sister, she would leave the pirate group. Flowerdew had never been involved in looting, nor had she ever killed anyone, so she wasn't really a pirate.

"I promise you, if I see your sister, I will help you redeem her and reunite your sisters." Donk swore that it wasn't that he had a big deal, but that it didn't cost much to buy a slave, and it was probably only a few dozen silver coins, which was not as much as his gambling money.

"Thank you." Instead of cheering up, she hugged her knees and buried her face pitifully.

"Little girl, learn to live like a pirate." Donk stood up and returned to the captain's quarters, while Blossom stayed where she was, not intending to leave.

The pirate group arrived at the Mine City two weeks later and did not sail the sea for long. In addition to fighting two sea monsters along the way, they also let the new sailors get through the difficult period of seasickness. Those who spit filth on the Sky were all severely punished by Tang Ke.

After arriving at the mining city, Donk read the information of the port, which was nothing special, just a coastal city with minerals as its economic source. The pier here is much more deserted than the Port of the Red Rose, because the two places are so close that most people choose to dock at the Port of the Red Rose.

Because the dock was deserted, Donk's arrival did not attract onlookers, but made him quiet.

Donk asked Wendy to take care of the port affairs, and he went to meet with the master blacksmith, but unfortunately he didn't meet the master successfully, and instead touched the ashes of his nose.

Tek. Guern is the owner of the rich mine in the local area, and the schedule is full, and he will only meet local dignitaries, or rich maritime merchants, and ordinary people will not be able to see him.

In desperation, Donk had no choice but to negotiate with Tyck's exchange first, and spent 2,000 gold coins to buy a batch of magic stones. He plans to meet with Tektronix as a customer first, using money as a stepping stone.

Tang Ke didn't bargain, and happily completed the magic stone deal, divided it equally, and shipped it to the two magic ships. After that, he told the head of the exchange that he wanted to meet with Tektronix, and asked the director to make a match.

But the supervisor was also very embarrassed, he was just a small employee under Tek, receiving a decent salary, and he didn't have the opportunity to see Tek in normal times. The supervisor saw that Tang Ke was happy to pay the money, and reluctantly agreed to pass a word in the middle.

A businessman's shelf is so big, which makes Donk very dissatisfied and loses his temper. He waited for a week with the evil fire in his back before the news from the director arrived. Tyke made an appointment to meet at one of its restaurants.

Tang Ke's anger subsided slightly, and he arrived at the restaurant on time with his right-hand men and the black treasure chest.

In the restaurant, Donk drank sullen wine, he was the boss at sea, and even a merchant on land could make him uncomfortable. He waited a full hour, his patience polished clean, like a crater ready to erupt.

Seeing Tangk's anxious mood, One-Eye reminded in a low voice: "Pirates must have a cool head and distinguish between 'business' and 'life', swords and muskets must be used in business, but in life, we must learn another more peaceful way to deal with it. ”

"This paragraph is excerpted from Book II, Section III of the Code of Pirates." One ear interjected, and he looked at Donk with One-Eye.

The two old pirates are not good at anything else, but they know everything about pirates.

Tang Ke took a deep breath, and understood that One-Eyed meant to let him put away his fangs, and since he was going to deal with this matter calmly by means of trading.

They waited another hour before they had Tyke arrived.

Tyke walked with his head held high, and although he was only half the height of a Terran, he still managed to catch everyone's attention and be the center of attention in the crowd. He had orange-yellow hair and a beard that was waist-length, neatly combed, and tied in red knots.

He was covered in jewels, with a headband set with gems the size of goose eggs, a red robe made of fine wool, and a variety of precious ornaments that would suffocate a woman.

Beside Tyke, there were two guards with dark faces, with a strong and uninhibited aura on their bodies, and they were equipped with the finest swords, almost unable to leave an inch.

"Who's Donk?" Tyke's time was precious, and he skipped the greeting process and glanced directly at Donk and the others. He found that these people were dressed very shabby, and they were not like good people, and he had the idea of turning around and leaving.

"I'm Donk, hello, Mr. Tek. The pronunciation of our names is quite similar. Donk couldn't get used to Tek, and got up and said expressionlessly.
