Chapter 95: You're here at the right time
The seventeenth warehouse of the port, one of the three warehouses leased by 'Weiling' Haimao, at this time the two gates were closed, and the lights were bright and the sound was noisy.
"Finally able to drink wine, damn a bird in the sea, Skadi's rotten wine has another sour taste."
"When can I leave, the good girls in Tongshui Lane will be picked up if it's a little later!"
"Are you in such a hurry?"
"Nonsense, I haven't opened it in dozens of days?"
"Aren't there a few good-looking goods in Skyrim, it seems that there is a noble lady, who played bad and scolded us, didn't you go?"
"Skyrim people are too strong, I like to be smaller, my hands are smaller."
"No wonder you went to Copperwater Lane......"
Dozens of sailors in the barn sat on the ground and gulped wine and meat, laughed loudly in a yellow voice, and even wrestled and coaxed when they were in the mood. It is natural for them to be happy, and the hard sea journey of more than a month can finally come to an end, and the next half month will be their happy hour.
Most of them do not have the habit of saving money, like those who go by sea, even if the route is stable, they are prone to natural and man-made disasters, maybe the merchant ships that pass by will turn into pirates - they have done such a thing - and having fun in time is their philosophy of life. No matter how much money the captain sends them, they will definitely be able to spend it all in half a month.
But this is enough, just the money they get is enough for them to live the life of a son-in-law for half a month. Even if they have the idea of stability, the hedonistic and vain land of Xuanzhu County will eventually drain all their money.
Surrounded by laughter and laughter, the three people sitting in the middle looked at Magnolia with nervous expressions. Sitting on the left is a young man with a strong physique, Baolong, the third captain who is in charge of the third ship; Sitting on the right side is an old man with gray temples, the second captain of the second ship, Old Man Wu, who is in charge of managing the second ship; The strong man sitting in the middle is the captain who is responsible for managing the entire fleet and the number one ship, Black Flag.
Bai Magnolia, who was looking at the logbook and ledger, suddenly asked, "Where is the location where the second ship hit the reef?" How far is it from the warehouse? β
"It's right next door to the warehouse." Old Man Wu said immediately, he knocked on the cigarette gun, exhaled a puff of smoke to the side, and said: "That room is actually a temporary warehouse, but it happened to be empty, so there was no loss." β
"If you transfer the share of the warehouse next to it here, you can report the loss." Magnolia said: "One in and one out, we can get an extra three hundred gold yuan." β
"Actually, we can say that the price of the Grace Lock in Skadi has dropped, so that we can get more-"
Magnolia shook her head: "There's no need, continue to maintain the highest profit report." β
Baolong was not convinced, stood up and said loudly: "But it is a fact that the grace lock is not easy to sell in Skadi, and the first few times it was only at the highest price, but if we continue to do this, won't half of our hard-earned work be taken away by that second ancestorββ"
Rumble!
The black flag suddenly punched over, and Baolong's whole person crashed into the banquet of the sailors next to him, and he fell into the fishy body of chicken, his teeth were knocked off, and his nose bleeded.
The sailors were not surprised, laughed and changed to another place to continue to eat and drink and gamble. Baolong wiped the blood from his face, got up in silence, and Black Flag asked, "Do you know it's wrong?" β
"Got it." Baolong bowed his head and said.
Black Flag's tone also softened: "I am more unhappy than you for being cut such a large piece of meat, I will get less money, and I am the one who loses the most!" Director Bai has the same share as you, you don't have much money, he doesn't have much money, do you think he will feel very comfortable? β
"But in the end, we are just workers 'hired' by the Silver Blood Society after all, the ship is not ours, the cargo is not ours, all the dependence you think you have, the Silver Blood Society can take it away at any time, and the navy of the Heyang Army will sink us at any time, and the Silver Blood will want to crush us, as simple as crushing a swarm of ants!"
"I don't expect you to understand Director Bai's intentions, but don't intimidate others."
Baolong whispered: "I didn't hit him, it's not a threat......
Black Flag walked up to him, grabbed him by the collar and said in a cold voice, "Did you hear that?" β
Although Black Flag is only a few years older than Baolong, and the two are of similar stature, Baolong saw Black Flag's eyes and immediately coaxed: "I heard it!" β
"It's called intimidation." The black flag loosened his collar.
Seeing that they were taking care of their internal affairs, Magnolia continued to close the ledger and said, "I can't find any other place to squeeze out the money, so be it." You can just hand it in tomorrow, and now you can divide the money. β
The sailors' ears were pointed, and the moment they heard the word 'penny', they fell silent, and their eyes were like students who had not done their homework before the end of the summer vacation looking at the top students who had finished their homework, and looked at the captains with fire and longing.
Black Flag smiled and nodded at Old Man Wu, who walked to the box next to him and pried it with a cigarette gun, revealing the box full of gold yuan coins.
"Bunnies, line up to get the money!" Old Man Wu roared angrily, and the sailors immediately lined up obediently, and the big men who were five strong and three thick lined up like elementary school students, and Magnolia couldn't help but want to laugh out loud every time she saw this scene.
"Old doghead, sailor, take three bags of money."
"Ying boy, sailor, take three bags of money."
"North wind, boatswain, take three gold yuan and three bags of money."
"Old Mo, first mate, take a dozen gold yuan and three bags of money."
β¦β¦
The money was in order, and the sailors who got the money counted the money happily, they were not heroic fellows, and of course they had to check if there was any lack of money, and the captains did not admit it after leaving the door.
Old Man Wu sat on the sofa next to him, commanding his subordinates to divide the money, and suddenly heard someone ask: "Wow, there are at least three bags of money, how much is three bags of money?" Got 700 money? β
Old Man Wu replied casually: "This time it's not enough, there are 900 yuan!" β
"Wow, calculated like this, the daily salary is almost twice that of the captain of the Statistics Department, it's really good......" The voice muttered in a low voice, Old Man Wu couldn't hear clearly, squinted his eyes and asked, "What are you talking about?" β
"I want to ask, is it true that the higher the position, the more money?"
"Of course! Young people work hard, and sooner or later they will be able to rise to the rank of boatswain. Old Man Wu thought that it was a young sailor who was chatting with him, so he casually encouraged.
"Then I want to ask, how much money can Jing Zhengwei, the boss of 'Weiling', get?"
"He, I think about it, he should be able to get ......"
Old Man Wu suddenly got stuck, turned his head to look, and found a richly dressed young man standing behind him, looking at him with a smile, and suddenly rolled to the ground in fright, and opened his mouth with a pale face, "You, you ......"
"You are Jing Zhengwei!"
Old Man Wu's loud shout attracted everyone's attention. Many people saw that the young man's face changed dramatically in an instant, and Black Flag, Baolong, Magnolia and others stood up suddenly, and the sailors who were close to the weapon reacted very quickly to get the weapon-
Syllable!
With a clapping of the young man, the two doors of the warehouse were blasted open, and the guards of the Jing family rushed in with guns and pointed at the sailors. One of the sailors was about to touch the light gun, but the guard shot through the palm of the hand, and he lay on the ground screaming in pain.
The guards were naturally the two major guards of the eldest young master of the Jing family, Mi Die and Lisang, as well as the double swordsman Yin Minghong. Although the number of guards was smaller than that of the sailors, there was a faint momentum of 'siege' under the siege of the three of them.
Bang, the young man turned over, sat on the tattered sofa of Old Man Wu just now, continued to applaud vigorously, with a lively expression, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I'm just here to inspect the people's situation, you are the important wealth of 'Weiling' Maritime Trade, why do you have an expression of 'the boss wants to harm me'?" β
"Relax, relax, keep eating, keep drinking."
Although the young man said this, the guards around him still silently pointed at the sailors, and all the sailors had a sense of crisis like a thorn in their backs. And any sailor who tries to take a weapon will instantly feel that he is being targeted by several guns, and if he makes a slight move, the sailor who is now rolling on the ground and screaming in pain will be their fate.
The barn suddenly became a little quiet, except for the screams of the rotten sailors, only the sound of everyone's nervous breathing and violent heartbeat, and no one dared to move.
"I don't think I'm very popular." The young man smiled, "Perhaps, I came at the wrong time?" β
"Nope."
At this time, Magnolia suddenly took a step forward, looked at Le Yu and said:
"You're here at the right time."
