A full-powered cargo ship is like an arrow from a string, and on the other side, a pirate assault boat cruises unhurriedly, and the two appear on the display screen at the same time, forming a strange picture.

Data is useless at this moment, and the cargo ship may be detected by the assault boat, or it may pass by, and character is everything.

Linnie's expression was cold, and while maintaining full speed, she kept her cursor at both ends of the screen as much as possible, even if she was not averse to the battle that would come at any time, the blood bull still held her breath, a pair of blood-red bull's eyes only stared at the small light spots on the screen, and the thunderbolt bee also stopped screaming, as if afraid that the slightest noise would alarm the pirates.

Chen Fang witnessed the legendary small probability event, although it was not less witnessed before, but it was always developing in an unfavorable direction, and this time, the cargo ship was in danger of bypassing the pirates.

character, Chen Fang muttered to himself.

"Let me do it, fiddling with the machinery, I'm better than you." Thunderbolt Bee took the initiative to replace the cold-looking Linny, the three assault boats were long gone, and thirteen hours had passed since they hit the road, and the cargo ship rushed out of the Red Devil's sphere of influence ahead of time because it was always sailing at full speed.

"Thank you." Chen Fang said lightly to Linni.

Linny gave him a blank look and asked, "Thank me for what?" Thank you for trusting you stupidly and driving a cargo ship laden with crystal oil to get under the noses of pirates? ”

"If I had just waited for me to explain, I'm afraid we wouldn't have a chance to avoid the pirates." Chen Fang knows that he is at a loss, as a teammate, he has the right to know all his plans, but he is really not used to describing the plan from beginning to end before doing things. And what she wants to thank is Linny's trust regardless of the reason.

Two weeks later, the cargo ship arrived at the Chardo airport, and Chen Fang was certainly not stupid enough to sell the oil to the authorities, but spread the news and sold it at a price, and in only five or six days, the entire ship of oil was sold out, and the price rose by 70 percent.

Unsurprisingly, the price of Cardo aquamarine oil plummeted due to piracy, but after the purchase price of Chardo skyrocketed, the trafficking of crystal oil, which was originally a lucrative industry, has now become even more lucrative under the ravages of pirates.

"If we don't become mercenaries at any time, maybe we can make money by trafficking crystal oil." Seeing that the banknotes came so easily, the poor and crazy thunderbolt bee couldn't help but blush and heartbeat.

Chen Fang explained very sincerely: "We lack capital, otherwise we will leave half of the extra seven percent to Shen Jun, and we will divide the rest." ”

"It's not good." Thunderbee was inevitably a little tempted, and the mercenary's moral qualities allowed him to resist the temptation.

Chen Fang continued to lure: "This money is an extra income, which we earned back ourselves, and we don't have to worry about our conscience when we divide it." ”

"Don't even think about it." Linni overheard the conversation between the two, and didn't want to pay attention to it, so as not to let the family misunderstand that she was eavesdropping, who knew that Chen Fang was getting more and more outrageous, and actually lured the thunderbolt bee to embezzle the employer's assets, and the good quality of the mercenary made her unbearable.

"This is something she won't give up, and she won't let me do it." Chen Fang is such a person, he knows that the thunderbolt bee is short of money, and he is willing to help, but he will not send money or borrow money, at most he will give him an opportunity to make money.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether it is private or not, escorting a cargo ship full of crystal oil through the pirate-infested area is far more difficult than guarding a few broken mines, and it is also much more dangerous, and it is reasonable to increase the commission, Chen Fang saw the possibility of soaring prices of Shire polycrystalline oil in advance, and proposed to divide the additional income from trafficking crystal oil equally, one for Shen Jun, and one as a commission.

Shen Jun doesn't care about making money, so he wants to give the family a beautiful performance, even if he can barely make a difference, this proposal does not need to increase expenses, and may obtain additional income, so he naturally will not refuse.

Shen Jun didn't have the idea of filling his own pockets, and he didn't keep his own share, he explained the reason and handed it over to the family, the capital of the children of the nobility was not measured by money, but the trust and respect of the family, although it was unintentional, he made the right choice after all.

The truth surfaced, Linnie is still cold, but her heart is by no means calm, since joining the mercenary, her companions have always been unable to make ends meet financially, although she has the heart to fund, but she can't.

Linnie knew that when they were 'hippie smiley' to borrow money from themselves, they didn't feel good, and those who were willing to defend their teammates with their lives were never lacking in dignity, and their skills were not weak, if they hadn't followed them with all their hearts, how could they get to the point where they are now.

Maybe in the eyes of outsiders, the two teammates are burdensome to Linny, but the fact is that Linny's stubbornness drags down the team, and the death and injury of members and quitting are all normal things, but Linny refuses to recruit new members, which eventually leads to the team in trouble.

Chen Fang changed this situation, that is, he freed his companions from economic embarrassment, but also preserved their dignity, and more importantly, Linnie was not as stubborn as before.

The Shen family ended the business of the mine, and the initial task was gone, and the escort mission could be hired temporarily, but Shen Jun decided that Chen Fang would not let him leave at all, and the conditions offered were particularly attractive, and the escort mission was still in accordance with the old rules, half of the extra income was used as a commission, and the commission during the waiting period was paid, and Chen Fang and others did not have to stay in the manor at any time, and they came and went freely.

On the third day back in Cadolan, William Sr. came to the door.

"I heard that a cargo ship was wrecked on Kadoran East Road, but it frightened me, I have been restless these days, and it is great to see you come back safely." Everyone knows that this concern is faked, but the old fox's acting skills are super dazzling, and Chen Fang has no choice but to express his gratitude in a timely manner.

Onlookers were dumbfounded, how intimate can the relationship between two men be? Moreover, Chen Fang seems to have forgotten the miniature locator in the cargo hold, which is ironclad evidence that William Sr. has fornicated with pirates, and he wants to put Chen to death.

After a few simple greetings, old William asked with a smile: "I heard that someone transported a whole shipload of crystal oil to Chardo Airport and made a ruthless profit, it should be Shen Gongzi's handiwork, right?" ”

Shen Gongzi was naturally referring to Chen Fang, and it was 'obvious' who the owner of this manor was. The old fox is very smart, and he can't hide it, at this time, he just asks, not to confirm anything, Chen Fang simply admitted it, and then waited and watched the changes.

"Good! Shen Gongzi really hid it deeply, and three weeks later, there was a party in Bourbon, and I hoped that Shen Gongzi would appreciate it. Old William suddenly changed his demeanor, handed over an invitation card with both hands, and his eyes faintly showed respect.

The invitations are made with great care, every detail is exquisite, and the beautiful patterns at the corners are not simply decorations, but are as important as the family crest.

This is an invitation from the upper nobles, which is of great significance to the lower nobles, and the father of the golden lion received such an invitation when he was down, and since then he has risen to prominence and has become a pillar of the country.

For capable and ambitious people, an opportunity is more precious than anything else, but Shen Jun ......

In any case, the opportunity should not be missed, Chen Fang took the invitation on his behalf first, promising to go to the appointment on time, and the old William was relieved, and after explaining some details, he left in a hurry.

"It's a great opportunity, take it." Chen Fang prepares to return the invitation to its original owner.

"You accepted the invitation, I won't go!" Shen Jun retreated to the corner of the room,

"You are Shen Jun, I accepted it on your behalf." Chen Fang reluctantly reminded him, and at the same time he was a little angry.

"They invited you, they invited you maybe for the sake of trafficking crystal oil, what can I do when I go?" Shen Jun exuded the courage to fight to the death, and it was hard to imagine that this was just for an invitation.

"This is a gathering of nobles, and those present must also be nobles, besides, trafficking crystal oil is your Shen family's business, how dare I make decisions casually? Think about your father, he is looking forward to you......" Chen Fang put the invitation in front of him and shook it, this guy actually closed his eyes.

"I feel that you are more like a nobleman than me, didn't old William admit his mistake, I authorized you to handle the negotiation of selling crystal oil, so it's always okay, right?" Shen Jun was really forced to rush and ran into the study as if fleeing for his life.

"I don't understand what these noble children think? Isn't it just going for a meal? "The thunderbolt wasp was thrilled to witness the drama, which was ridiculous compared to the struggle in the midst of a hail of bullets.

Chen Fang said meaningfully: "Aristocrats also have their own difficulties, and it is not easy for anyone. ”

Being strong doesn't mean that he doesn't feel bitter, for seven years, he gave up the life he wanted and lived in torment every day, but it was only after joining the mercenaries that he felt the taste of happiness. Born in the powerful Chen family, how good can the fate of an inferior nobleman be? After surviving in that environment for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some psychological shadows, and Shen Jun's situation is more serious.

Linnie is willing to accept this sentence, it is not easy for people to live. But when Chen Fang said it, there was a feeling of moaning painlessly, did he know the difficulties of the nobles?

"What are you going to do? Do you go to the meeting on his behalf? ”

"I'm afraid it's the only way, help him finalize the business first, who told me to ask for my own hardships and suggested that he sell crystal oil." Chen Fang wanted to cry without tears.

Linnie frowned and said, "Do you think William's invitation is for the sake of crystal oil trading?" Do you trust him, you forgot about the miniature locator found in the cargo hold? He is probably a fellow pirate, so aren't you afraid that he will do you something bad under the guise of a party? ”

"You care about me?" Chen Fang couldn't help but be flattered, and didn't wait for a long time to talk back, only then did he remember her principle, nonsense is to be ignored.

The good days have passed for too long, and it is inevitable that people will forget the lesson, Chen Fang put on a serious look: "Old William runs a refinery, he can't have anything else to do with me except to talk about crystal oil, according to my speculation, he may want to sell crystal oil together." The locator in the cargo hold was not put by him, and the party was not held by him, and the host of this banquet should also be his host, he just came to deliver invitations. ”

"Why do you think he didn't put the locator?" Linnie asked.

Chen Fang analyzed unhurriedly: "First of all, he didn't know in advance that I could put his workers on the boat, if I let my workers carry them, he wouldn't be able to put the tracker?" If he was going to put the tracker, he should put it in a gas drum. Besides, cutting off the transport lines did him no good. He owns the only refinery in Cardolan, and as long as he can get started, the money will roll in, so why stop working himself? Even if he reluctantly said that he wanted to make huge profits, at this point, if he had an affair with pirates, he could completely transport crystal oil to make a fortune by himself, without having to find me. ”

Linnie also thinks this analysis is very logical: "However, if he wants to cooperate with you, why didn't he mention it the first time?" ”

Chen Fang explained while thinking: "At that time, Old William still didn't trust my ability, why was it necessary to be tempted by the whims of young people, why don't you take a look and talk about it?" He sold me crystal oil first, observed my ability, if I can ship the crystal oil out, it is not too late for him to talk to me about cooperation, Cardoran sells crystal oil alone, he is not afraid that I can run away. If I fail, he will still be able to sell a shipload of crystal oil without losing anything. ”

Linnie suddenly felt a burst of coldness: "You know that old William is that kind of person, and you are still willing to cooperate with him?" ”

"Why can't we cooperate? As long as it is in his interests, there is no need to worry about being betrayed. Actually, it's not a matter of our will, it's whether we're qualified enough to work with him, and Cadoran is full of ore, which is sent to the factory to refine crystal oil at little cost. Old William has such capital in his hands, why worry about finding someone willing to cooperate? He is qualified to select partners, and those who are selected by him do not suffer, and this invitation is an olive branch handed to the lower nobles. Chen Fang, who was born in a wealthy family, has a deep understanding of the essence of cooperation, as early as when he was only a few years old and did not understand what a woman was, marriage was advanced by the family as a bargaining chip.

Finally, a message pops up through the goggles, interrupting Linny's questioning.

"We might have found new teammates." A smile appeared on his always cold face.
