Chapter 38: The Bait and the Fisherman

"Welcome to the great Mr. Bacon's Alchemy Lab, each piece of equipment can only have one additional effect, and cannot coexist with the rest of the alchemy effects/additional magic effects, you can be honored to receive the following alchemy services:

"Increases damage to weapons by 1-1. Charge £100 or 1000 universal points" "Increases the armor's ability to absorb 1% damage. Charge £100 or 1000 universal points"

"Adds 20 movement speed to your shoes. Costs £500 or 5000 generic points" (this item is not available because you don't have footwear equipment) (by the way, Fang Senyan's current maximum movement speed is related to agility, which is about 220 points) "Adds an extra ammo space to firearms. Charges £1,000 or 10,000 generic points (this surname is not available because you are not wearing firearms) (this surname is a frustration for weapons like submachine guns, but for single-shot arquebuses in this world, it represents a change in nature) "You can only get the above services at the moment. ”

Fang Senyan looked at this series of hints with some dumbfounded, after he got the plunder dividends from Captain Armand, he originally thought that this was already a lot of money, but now it seems that although the pound cannot be brought out of this world, nor can it be exchanged for universal points, it seems that it can play a very important role at some point. Fang Senyan took out his money bag, which was now a little shriveled, although there was still a pleasant jingle sound from the pound pound when it hit, but Fang Senyan already had a deep feeling of hatred when the money was used at this time.

After paying two hundred pounds, Fang Senyan added a 1-1 attack to his cobalt-steel exoskeleton, and the FBI's special trench coat had a surname that absorbed 1% of the damage. However, at this time, he only had about two pounds left in his body, and he returned to the poor and white state when he first entered this world. After the alchemist Bacon consumed Fang Senyan, Fang Senyan's attitude was finally more polite, so he reluctantly answered in the face of Fang Senyan's inquiry:

"What? You asked me how to start a more advanced service. Oh God, how could I have heard such a stupid question. Child, alchemy is a very, very, very wealth-consuming sacred work, so a higher level of service means more expensive materials, a more horrible cost - so the only way to get a higher service is to prove that you can afford to pay for it. You will only get my approval when you have reached a certain level of total spending with me. ”

"Okay, okay." When Fang Senyan left here, all that was going through his mind was the idea of how to make money. However, it seems that the only way he can get money at this time is to gamble in the bar. It's just that these pirates are also quite shrewd, although Fang Senyan relies on his high perception to win more and lose less, and also cleverly set some traps to deliberately lose, but the pirates seem to have a psychological bottom line, that is, when they lose about two or three pounds, they won't play. Therefore, Fang Senyan had only earned a dozen pounds at most after a hard afternoon, and it was too inefficient to satisfy the appetite of that greedy Mr. Bacon at this rate.

On this night, Fang Senyan returned to his cabin and prepared to rest, after all, he still had to train with the blind Matt tomorrow morning, if he could maintain his best condition, then he would be able to improve his basic footsteps by the first level. But at this time, Kerry slipped into the cabin, looking at the hypocritical smirk on his face and the appearance of rubbing his hands, Fang Senyan vigilantly covered his wallet and said:

"What do you want to do?" Kerry laughed along:

"I heard that you seemed to have taken a lot of dividends last time? I am referring to the currency of the world, the pound sterling. Fang Senyan said lightly:

"Nope." Kerry choked as if he had been choked by the neck, and suddenly screamed angrily:

"How is that possible? Charles clearly said that Armand gave you a few hundred pounds."

"That's my business, okay?" Fang Senyan said very politely.

Kerry spread out his hands and said helplessly:

"Oh, don't be such a brother, I don't want you for nothing. I'll buy your pounds with a generic point, okay? Buy £500 for 500 universal points! If Fang Senyan hadn't gone to the alchemist to consume today, he wouldn't have really made a deal, but now he knew how unreliable the price offered by this guy was Keri, so he couldn't help but said lightly:

"What do you want so much money for?" Kerry was obviously prepared, and said with a foaming mouth:

"Hey, brother, I'm on a mission that will require a lot of pounds to get these greedy characters and will eventually open the door to an alchemist's laboratory that will add all sorts of magical castes to our equipment - think about it, for us! Don't hesitate to give me the money. Fang Senyan said coldly:

"Are you talking about an alchemist called bacon?" After Kerry froze for three seconds:

"Oh, shit! How do you know? Fang Senyan took out a heavy money bag, which contained the charming clatter of coins, and Kerry's eyes showed fiery hope again:

"Listen, I always know a lot more than you do, and if you tell me honestly what I'm going to do with £500, I'll give you this money bag." "You promise? Do you dare to notarize with the Nightmare Mark? "No problem." "Well, you've won, that greedy old bastard has squeezed money to an outrageous degree, and if you're willing to pay double the alchemy price, then you'll get the alchemy scroll of the service - this thing can take out of the nightmare space! Some of the high-quality and best-selling alchemy scrolls can even be sold for a fairly high profit - give me the money bag!"

Fang Senyan nodded, threw the heavy money bag in his hand, and then drove Kerry out of the cabin and latched the door, then lay down lazily on the bed with his hands behind his head. Soon he heard a terrible scream coming from outside, and it was none other than Kerry. The reason for the screams was, of course, because the seemingly plump purse was full of pennies (the British currency coinage unit). Similar to the Chinese "points". £1 = 240p (1 shilling = 12 pence, £1 = 20 shillings) When Kerry, full of anticipation, opened this rumbling purse, the disappointment caused by the huge gap in his heart can be imagined. And this money bag is also a prop for a shrewd gambler disguised as a rich man in the bar during the day, of course, he ended up being beaten face down by the pirates and thrown down the street, and the only property on his body was also taken by Fang Senyan to pay off his gambling debts. After Fang Senyan got the news, he immediately understood why that damn old Barry would evaluate the value of that token so highly, in fact, it was true, as long as someone could have a certain amount of charm and enough money after getting the cross, then they should be able to earn at least 100% of the profit back!

Kerry obviously didn't have the courage to come back to Fang Senyan for a theory, because it stands to reason that the tricks he had used in his dealings with Fang Senyan were only excessive, and Fang Senyan only recovered a little interest in this matter. But Fang Senyan didn't close his eyes to sleep, the corners of his mouth showed a sneer, as if he was waiting for something. It didn't take long for a short and gentle knock to sound outside, and Fang Senyan's eyes flickered:

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Mr. Boatswain." It was Robben who spoke.

The man hurriedly ran over and said:

"I have to come and inform you that your cousin is borrowing money from you on the ship, and he is constantly preaching about the intimacy of your relationship, and at the same time borrowing money at a high interest rate. If he fails to repay the loan and interest when the time comes, then I am afraid that he will be in big trouble, and you will be very, very passive. ”

Obviously, this is the counterattack of the cunning Kerry. Since Fang Senyan had previously said that the relationship between the two was extremely intimate in order to agree, then at this time, he took advantage of the situation to amplify this intimacy, which was originally fictional, so as to use Fang Senyan's reputation to borrow money! After Fang Senyan thought about it, he opened the hatch to find Kerry, but he obviously underestimated Kerry's adaptability, and when he walked to the deck, Kerry had already boarded a barge and rowed several meters to the shore, and he was already carrying a very plump and jingling money bag in his hand, and more importantly, it was full of colorful pounds!

Looking at Fang Senyan standing on the deck, Kerry smiled smugly and shouted:

"Don't worry, dear cousin, I've set the repayment date for seven days later."

Apparently, seven days later, both of them had already returned to the real world. But who can say for sure if Kerry will be here in the future? Once you enter, you may not enter with Fang Senyan again. But Kerry can never get close to the bell and the wine glass again, and Fang Senyan's hard-won status as a boatswain must not be easily abandoned! This means that most of the rotten debts on Kerry's back will be counted on Fang Senyan, if Fang Senyan defaults, it is inevitable that his reputation will plummet, obviously Fang Senyan is also aware of this, and roared with some gaffes:

"Don't fucking think about going back to the ship, waiting to be chased to death by the guards of Tutuga Harbor!"

Kerry shrugged his shoulders very regretfully, smiled and said:

"I'll be right back when I'm done, my dearest cousin, don't be angry. Mr. Charles and I have a good relationship, and he will accept me even if you don't let me on board. ”

Fang Senyan watched the ship carrying Kerry disappear into the darkness a little sluggishly, it seemed that his expression was a little helpless and angry, but only when he got closer could he notice the sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if he was a hunter watching his prey fall into a trap!
