Ten hours later, when the day was on the third pole,

The stowaway boat has left the harbor far away and into the Mediterranean.

Binghe walked out of the room and onto the deck. The sailors who saw the ship on the deck saw Binghe's arrival and avoided it, but their eyes all looked at the light child who appeared on the deck.

A few minutes later, the same boatman who had agreed to board the ship ten hours earlier went to the deck.

This boatman is not tall, and there is no doubt that the man who can subdue the five big and three thick men on the entire ship is a professional. The class type is Sailor (lower class), and he can judge the current of water on the hull of a ship, and can judge the underwater situation through sonic magic based on an iron wire. (Works similarly to sonar.) ）

Of course, due to the gap in professional levels, what magic this boatman uses now, Bing Core can keenly feel.

I saw the boat boss step forward. Binghe smiled harmlessly. But the matrix cursor that jumps in the eyes, and the fluorescent lines that flicker on the wrists, indicate that the Bing Core is ready to be activated at any time.

#

The boatman was also stunned when he saw Binghe, in the previous dark night, the boatman did not see Binghe's appearance clearly, just a height of one meter and five short people, at that time he just thought that Binghe's age may not be big, but he really didn't think it was this kind of half-old child.

For the past ten hours, the boatman has been speculating about Binghe's identity, and at that time, Binghe gave the boatman the feeling that he was like a super thief who had committed a big crime and was desperate to escape.

So the boatman was very entangled in these ten hours. As an underworld earning a living, he is taboo to provoke other complicated things.

And now that he saw Binghe with his own eyes, this boatman was even more confused, but after being confused, his heart was a lot colder.

#

"It's definitely not a river thief, which noble young master of this family ran out" The boatman felt bitter and annoyed in his heart. For these people who beg for a living in the underworld, aristocrats are an existence that must not be touched. He now had the urge to turn the boat back.

However, Bing Nu on the ship, on the splint, leisurely flicked his leather boots and walked over with brisk steps.

"May I ask where we are going," Binghe said, leaving a black line on the boatman's forehead. ——This tone of interest sounded like the joy of being shut up at home for a long time, and suddenly getting rid of discipline. Such a jumped, happy person should not have appeared on a smuggling boat.

The boatman sorted out his thoughts for a while, and said with a smile: "This young master, I admit that your talent is amazing. But the outside world is not interesting. ”

#

Binghe seemed to have seen through all the careful thoughts of the boatman, and still said with a smile: "I know, there is black and white outside." You don't have to hurt people, you don't have to guard against people, you don't have to send me food these days, I brought dry food myself. By the way, I'll go to the cabin and pick up a barrel of rum (a low-alcohol sugar cane liquor, equivalent to fresh water that can be stored for a long time), and leave me alone. ”

The boatman was silent, and the stupid noble young master in front of him, after gaining insight into the interests and disadvantages of the ship, said it in a very solid tone. - Let this boatman, who can't pull the relationship closely, can't brush his sleeves away.

"Nobles, a group of people who don't want to provoke but have to deal with," the boatman said silently.

#

Although Binghe had a smile on his face, the cursor in his eyes was always locked on the boatman here, and the sonic beam was also locked on the person who was walking up the deck, and Binghe was hanging a firearm on his waist at this time.

As for the current peaceful conversation, Binghe seems to be like a white rabbit, but in fact, it is not.

From the very beginning of the ship, Binghe was in the cabin, eavesdropping on the cabin with sonic techniques for two hours, and now he was on the deck, now preparing for the final showdown. Once the negotiation is completely failed, it is difficult to cooperate. Then you have to use a secondary plan.

The secondary plan: to deal with the captain and his cronies by force, and at the same time use a group of stowaways in the cabin of the alliance of interests, to achieve a balance of power on the ship, and then organize the crew to continue the voyage. ”

#

If you are not familiar with the organization of the ship, rashly initiate a power grab, drift on the sea, chaotic and disorderly, and everyone loses confidence, then on the ship, the force at this time will be difficult to face the subsequent chaos, even if you kill 10% of the people, you will face the threat of being attacked after exhaustion.

And only by mastering the organization, so that everyone on board feels that the voyage can reach the goal, and there is hope after reaching the goal, then the force can complete the maximum domination and deterrence.

Bing's hope is that the boatman and his organization on board will compromise and not plan anything against him.

#

During the conversation, the boatman seemed to sense the meaning behind Binghe's smile. He lowered his head, and honestly began to answer the content of the voyage under Binghe's inquiry.

Fifteen minutes later.

In the captain's cabin, Bing Nucleus leaned against the captain's bed. The captain's bedroom was quite clean.

Binghe looked at it over and over again, drawing a map of the Mediterranean Sea full of various routes.

Binghe let out a sigh of relief, a little glad that the captain was able to admit it. Although the western continent has entered the age of steam, a large number of civilian ships are still dominated by sailing ships. Large sailboats do not require fuel. With enough food to be able to travel very long distances.

But this is very demanding for captains and sailors, who know the currents at sea, as well as the change in wind direction from day to day. When the power is all on the wind, they are the only ones who can make the sailboat work.

#

Binghe looked at the many countries of the Mediterranean. and the final destination on the chart.

Binghe asked in surprise, "Go West?" Isn't it going to Roland? ”

When Binghe was eavesdropping, he heard that the stowaway in the cabin was going to Roland to farm. But the actual operation of these snakeheads is obviously different. They want to go West.

There's a big gap.

The Duchy of Roland is on the northeast coast of the Mediterranean, and it is an ally of Saint Sauce, and it is basically peaceful. And the Duchy of Wittes, in the west of the Roland Kingdom, west of West is the Oka Empire. Strategically, this is the buffer zone between the spheres of influence of the Oka Empire and the Saint Sock Empire.

In fact, not only that, but the one to the north of Wester is getting stronger and stronger.

Two thousand years ago, the Heman Empire, which was powerful on the Western Continent for a while, existed in name only, and was divided into several principalities, including West and Pratt & Whitney. West is caught between great powers and cannot grow.

Pratt & Whitney is now allied with the Oka people for nearly three hundred years, and with the technical support of the Oka people and their own militaristic war system, it is growing into a formidable military force in the middle of the continent.

Oka supported Pratt & Whitney, while Saint Sauc supported the Duchy of Roland. -- The nature of military alliance confrontation is very obvious.

Note: When Binghe fled, Roland ordered military horses from the Imperial Garden family, because in recent decades, the Roland Kingdom has been hindering the expansion of Pratt & Whitney. All kinds of military supplies are in short supply.

Therefore, the situation on the mainland has developed to the present day, and it is not only the Oka people who want to take West, but the Pratt & Whitneys in the north want to annex West.

If it weren't for West, it was controlled by the Gangluan family. The Duchy of West has a large number of bastions, and the heritage of this Duchy is a fortress, and West has long been destroyed.

Well, why do West's bastions have so many bastions? The Oka people collapsed in the East that year. The Western Continent Anti-Oka Alliance, in order to contain the Oka people, so the alliance at that time helped West build.

#

The political and military situation is so cramped, which makes West's domestic situation very bad.

And due to the lack of combat power, despite the geographical location of the crossroads of the Mediterranean Sea, merchants were reluctant to invest in this place with a high risk of war, because the investment here could not be guaranteed to be temporarily expropriated for a war.

Support for West from other countries in the Western Continent was also perfunctory.

In contrast, Pratt & Whitney in the north, three hundred years ago, when the Oka people were at their weakest, they were on the side of the Oka people, and the Oka people provided large-scale technical support to Pratt & Whitney, the most valuable human resource in the history of steam, the mechanics in batches to support the Pratt & Whitney factory, and the incomparably noble mechanical controllers sent more than 20 people.

And West's side has received a lot of slogan support in the past three hundred years, in fact, knights, mechanics, support at all. The upper echelons of St. Thauk are self-aware, and this strategic point is about to collapse at any time, and it cannot be supported at all.

Due to military constraints, the already fragile agricultural economy could only be suppressed. The farmer of the plantation industry in the country is almost a consumable.

#

The purpose of the smugglers' ship to West is also very simple, that is, to sell St. Sauk, a begging farmer, to become serfs, and West's serfs are as miserable as the miners of the Moonfall Mountains.

But West's badness is well known, and no one wants to smuggle it out in Saint-Saucne. With the plantation economy and the mechanical industry economy, a large number of farmers in Saint Sauc go bankrupt every year. They want to go abroad to find a way to live. Not as an animal.

So the head of the snake lies in this regard.

Note: The bankrupt peasants of this gang scraped together the last bit of money and sold the tickets, and these smugglers took a share of the stowaways, and then got off the boat to sell them, and were able to collect another share of the money. - The heart is very black.

#

Note: It's the same with the earth, the smuggler promises to send you to the United States, where you may be washing dishes in the slums, or doing heavy physical work on a black construction site as a black household, or making money for bustards in the red light district.

After understanding the situation

Binghe looked at the boatman with a very strange gaze. The look of that looked meant, "Are you still human?" ”

It seems that Binghe's disgusted eyes make me a little unbearable.

The boatman said with a wry smile: "Young Master, in fact, most of the money we make is handed over to the sheriff of the Bolun family. I wouldn't want to do this kind of thing if I could. ”

Binghe thought about it, a little suddenly, and nodded in recognition of this statement (continuing to show disgust will be detrimental to his safety on the ship)

It is not easy to survive in this kind of private port, and it has to be dealt with up and down, and the large amount of money gap can only be paid with other people's flesh and blood without conscience.
