It didn't take long for Ling Tianqi to arrive. As soon as he entered the door, he held the captain's hand, which was particularly intimate. However, the more enthusiastic he became, the more unhappy the captain became. At this time, Ling Tianqi grinned, and the afternoon sun reflected on his white teeth, reflecting a dazzling light, flashing the captain's eyes sour.

"Friend, I've done my best, and now I'm still a little close, so let me carry the boat first, so that I can make money and pay you back." The captain said in a calm tone and with a sincere attitude.

"That's ......" Ling Tianqi stretched out his voice and said from the bottom of his heart, "It's not impossible......

Looking at Ling Tianqi's high attitude, the captain forcibly suppressed the idea of attacking, maintained a sincere attitude, and said in a humble tone, "If you have any requirements, please say." ”

"Although our Ling family is not a famous family, it has been passed down for hundreds ......of years," Ling Tianqi said slowly.

"Does it have anything to do with me?" The captain couldn't help but interject.

"Of course it is! You ...... all three of my sisters ...... "Speaking of his sisters, Ling Tianqi rarely stammered, and he couldn't say "" or "bullied" directly.

"What?" The captain asked knowingly.

"In short, don't harass them in the future, I'll give you a boat, and I'll give you an extra 50 gold, so that you can prepare supplies and recruit sailors."

"No problem." The captain replied dryly.

Ling Tianqi looked at the captain suspiciously, shook his head, and said, "I don't believe it!" ”

The captain shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "And what do you want?" ”

"That's it......" Ling Tianqi touched his chin and thought for a while, then said, "Write a guarantee." His idea was simple, to show the guarantee to his sisters when the time came, and then to say that the captain would give them up for a few dozen gold coins. In this way, they will definitely hate the captain to death, and they will never see him again.

It's just that he was immersed in pleasant fantasies, but he didn't notice that the captain was using his left hand when writing the guarantee......

Next, the captain informs the first mate to sail the Beidou to the port, arranges for the accountant to go to the supply market to buy supplies for the voyage, and then goes to the "Heart of the Sea" bar with the iron slag to recruit sailors.

"Heart of the Sea" and "Lisbon" are about the same size, both in Piazza Maid, across the central fountain.

When he arrived at the bar, the captain wrote a wooden board to recruit sailors, put it on a round table in the middle of the bar, and ordered two glasses of ale, and drank with the iron slag while waiting for the interviewers.

News of the Beidou's recruitment of sailors soon spread throughout the town of Luoyan. It didn't take long for people to sign up.

The first one came was a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with fish scales tattooed on his face and neck.

"Boss, I have a job." "What's it called?" "My name is Rui...... Rick. "What will you do?" "I can snore."

"Okay! Let's get on board. With a wave of his hand, the captain threw out two silver coins and told the tattooed man to go back and pack his things.

Iron Slag was puzzled, and when the strong man was gone, he asked the captain what was the use of snoring? The captain replied in a low voice, "Sailors should be stupid, the ship is very lonely and boring, and there are too many ideas, and they usually can't stay long." ”

The second one was a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, carrying a shoulder bag and fair skin, who looked to know that he had just come out of his home and had not yet experienced the wind and frost of sailing. He introduced himself as Doudou, from a nearby farm, and his dream was to be a sailor, throw himself into the arms of the sea, smell the salty air, get away from the noisy crowds, and find spiritual sustenance......

Seeing that the young man was weak and still in a crepe, the captain estimated that he didn't want to study and just ran away from home, so he waved his hand and said, "We don't recruit child labor." ”

"I ...... I don't want a salary. The young man said timidly.

"Okay! Let's get on board. "The captain waved his hand, how could he miss it if he didn't want money!

After receiving the approval, the boy sat directly on the other side of the round table, he had nothing to pack, and his luggage was in his shoulder bag.

At this moment, a hot girl staggered over. The girl had red hair, a bee waist and hips, a tight leather coat with rows of leather buttons, three daggers pinned to her waist, her round and slender thighs, and her mouth was dry, and the belt hung loosely on her hips, and a large pistol was tied to it.

"I ......"

"Okay! Let's get on board. The captain interrupted the girl with a wave of his hand.

"I want to ask where is the bathroom?" The redhead asked faintly. The captain suddenly felt bad, and pointed in a dejected direction.

"Thank you." The girl nodded politely and turned away, leaving only a faint fragrance.

Over the next two days, the Beidou recruited more than a dozen sailors. Seeing that it was almost over, the captain put away the plank and prepared to leave, when a short and stocky middle-aged man stumbled into the bar, rushed to the captain, and shouted out of breath, "I...... I'm going to get on board too. ”

"It's full." The captain refused without thinking about it, and the person who came was none other than the former captain of the Beidou - Feng Yun.

"I know how to cook! Braised pork with potatoes, stewed chicken with mushrooms, smoked fish with coal, shrimp boiled in red wine, crab sashimi ......"

"This ......" Listening to the delicious dishes, the captain hesitated.

There are some unwritten rules for deep-sea fishermen, one of which is that when the old captain asks to get on board, the new captain should not refuse. However, there is another rule that when the old captain has a majority of support, he can revolt and regain control of the ship.

These two rules may seem contradictory, but they are full of ancient wisdom. In contrast, the old captain is more familiar with the ship and can provide good construction in times of crisis. And if the new captain has no leadership, it means that the deep sea is not suitable for cruelty and should be eliminated. Of course, the new captain has the right to refuse the old captain's request, but this will give him a bad reputation, reduce the credibility of the major organizations in the coastal towns, and be ridiculed as cowardly.

However, Captain Xia Yihan has always paid little attention to fame, and in the circle of deep-sea fishermen, it can even be said that he is notorious.

"You're also responsible for mopping the floor." The captain hesitated for a while, still hoping that the other party would retreat.

"I have a good team spirit and can do any dirty work." Captain Feng Yun replied.

"Swear to be loyal forever." "I swear, from today onwards, the direction of Captain Xia Yihan's smoke ring is my eternal route." "No wages." "You don't need to be paid."

"Okay! Let's get on board. "The captain really can't refuse a free chef, and the captain of the Beidou has a decent cooking skills and reputation in the circle, and it is said that the only drawback is that he is rather verbose and often talks about trivial things.

Once the recruitment is complete, it is time to wait for the supplies to arrive and the sailors to familiarize themselves with the new ship. For the next few days, both the captain and the iron slag were busy with their own business, the former hanging around and bragging, and the latter racking his brains to make money to buy compressed biscuits.

That night, the captain came to look for iron slag just after dinner and invited him to go with him to the "Hound Dog Farm" to visit the traditional activities of Luoyan Town, and try his luck by the way.

The iron slag drove up the red comet, caught the captain, twisted the accelerator, and galloped away with a "whoosh".

The captain in the back seat only felt a strong push back force, but he didn't expect the iron slag car to look old, but it ran with extraordinary power, and the sound of the engine was extremely fine, and he knew that it was not an ordinary cargo. How did he know that the locomotive of iron slag embodies the hard work of Lao Niu, the crystallization of Nataxia, the essence of Wilderness Heavy Industry, and the pride of Harley Industries, just to not attract attention, and specially made the shell old.

If there is a king in the locomotive, then this red comet is the king.

More than ten minutes later, the locomotive drove out of Luoyan Town and headed south along the gravel path. After a while, a sparkling light appeared on the dark horizon. When you get closer, there is a large circular arch covered with colorful neon signs, faintly reading: Hound Manor.

Behind the arch is a large open space, where dozens of searchlights are hung high, illuminating the clearing. The middle of the open space is fenced, and some staff members dressed in white and racing dogs in shortshirts of various colors run around in it, which looks very noisy. Outside the fence, many makeshift tents were erected, and people gathered around the tents, pointing and pointing inside the fence, and from time to time bursting into laughter.

Running dogs, the rules are similar to running horses on Silver City, but the cost is much lower, after all, it is easier to raise a dog than a horse, and it is also cheaper.

"Come on, come on, try your luck." The captain pulled the iron slag and encouraged.

Iron Slag touched his forehead and scratched his hair again, the captain said that he was trying his luck, it turned out to be just betting on the dog, it was just a fool.

"Come on! If you hit a double storm, you will be rich! You can buy as many compressed cookies as you want. The captain continued to encourage.

Iron Slag was unmoved, and asked, "What if I lose?" ”

"I've never lost a dog bet." The captain swore an oath.

During the conversation, the two came to the edge of the fence, and the greyhounds wearing colorful shirts and numbers were driven to the starting line and lined up to prepare for the race. When Tie Slag was in Sand City, he also saw others betting on dogs, but he didn't participate in the betting, just to make a scene.

"You have good eyes, help me see which dog is more energetic, you see that number six, the big black dog, looks quite fierce, how about it?" The captain asked excitedly.

"It's not a fight, what's the use of being fierce." Iron Slag rolled his eyes and said.

"Makes sense!" After speaking, the captain took out the monocular and looked at it carefully. Iron Slag also looked over, he was a traditional evolutionary, so he had excellent eyesight, and he could see clearly at this distance without the help of tools.

There were nine greyhounds on the starting line, and the slag looked at it from beginning to end, and apart from the fact that two of them were a little sick, it was impossible to tell which dog had a better chance of winning. He had an idea, and whispered close to the red comet's sound sensor, "Alice, analyze it." ”

In order to keep it secret in front of outsiders, Alice did not make a sound, but directly displayed the answer on the screen of the locomotive.

"Dada...... Da ...... – The scanner needs to emit a green "Roentgen ray...... will expose our intentions......

"Dada...... Da Da Da ......" - Alice Jianyì...... Pure image number jù analysis...... However, the error is high...... Accuracy 56%......

"Dada...... "Toot ......" – according to the dog breed...... Hair color...... Temperament...... State...... The number three has the highest win rate......

"Number three is good." Iron Slag turned his head and said to the captain.
