Chapter 521: Tenglong Chamber of Commerce
Andy knew the reason why the merchant ship was coming the moment he heard the guard's shouts.
The merchant ships thought they were sailors who had just been attacked by pirates or caught in a storm, and after the sailboat was badly damaged or even sunk, the dhow became the last straw.
But as the two got closer, the guard apparently noticed something was wrong.
Andy's low-down pirate hat and glowing skull ring.
Charles, ragged, showed his chest covered in tattoos and scars.
"They're pirates! they're pirates!"
The guard took a few steps back and shouted loudly, but there was no fear in his tone, but a little excitement, dozens of guys dressed as guards surrounded him together, they all pulled out their muskets, looked at Andy condescendingly, and pointed their muskets at him and Charles.
As for Margaret, she blinked, as if sensing that something was wrong, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she cried out loudly.
"Help, help, help me!"
Charles was stunned for a moment, but he instantly figured out what was going on, and secretly glanced at Andy, and noticed the smile on the corner of his mouth, and let out a happy sigh.
Margaret raised her head, the sun shone on her hair, her blue eyes were misty, as if there would be tears left in the next second, plus Margaret's hot figure set off by the leather coat......
The guards on the merchant ship were stunned for a moment, only to feel that something had exploded in their heads.
"Damn pirate, let go of that young lady!"
"Shameless pirates, accept the righteous trial!"
"Don't hurt that beautiful and noble lady!"
"Draw your sword!
The guards shouted word by word, they didn't choose to pull the trigger, and in the undulating sea, the buckshot attack was not very accurate, although most of the guards thought they could hit Andy and Charles directly at such a close distance.
But what if something unexpected happens?
What if you scare that beautiful girl?
Several guards threw down the cable and wrapped it around the mast of Andy's sailboat, making sure that the boat would not be swept away by the waves, and Charles's eyes narrowed, and a faint evil aura emanated.
"Charles, be restrained, take a look at the situation first, I feel that there is something on the ship, at least I have to get on this merchant ship first. ”
Charles nodded, and he leaned to the side and raised his hands to signal that he would give up resistance.
The guards pointed their muskets at them and told them to climb up the cables, and the guards were not afraid that the pirates would jump into the sea and escape, and they would jump ship and escape in the vast sea, unless a miracle happened.
That is, it becomes food for marine fish, then it becomes feces and is excreted, and finally enters the stomach of a certain prawn.
Andy and Charles were caught on deck, and the guards tied them up with thick cables for safety.
"Beautiful young lady, are you alright?"
One of the guards reached out and lifted Margaritra onto the deck, he looked at Olivia, who was dressed in black robes, and asked in a low voice.
"Who's that woman?"
"She, like me, was captured by the pirates, and the robe was taken down from the pirates' ship, and her skirt was ...... ...... by those pirates."
Margaret whispered, just in time for the guards and a few of his companions to hear.
"Wow~"
There was a low, excited exclamation from the guards, as for what they were admiring...... Margaret glanced at Olivia casually and winked at her, with a slight banter.
Olivia pursed her lips, her face flushed in an instant, and she bowed her head slightly, sobbing and walking to Margaret's side.
"Two beasts, damn pirates, you're going to pay!"
"Don't stop me! I'm going to kill them!"
One by one, the guards tried to show off in front of the two ladies, but Charles's exaggerated size after getting the Narmai Slate still had a certain deterrent effect, so that these guys only dared to talk about it.
Andy didn't pay attention to these guys, they were just ordinary guards, and they were also cannon fodder in the event of a raid, and none of the really powerful crew members of this merchant ship appeared.
"Ahem. ”
A cough came from behind the guards, and several of the guards made way of the passage, and an old man with gray temples and a goatee slowly walked over.
The old man looked at Andy and Charles, who were tied up, and frowned deeply, and the wrinkles on his cheeks seemed to be deeper.
Then the old man looked at Margaret and Olivia, who were standing aside with their mouths pouting and watching the play, looking at Margaret's leather coat and Olivia's black robe, the old man sighed helplessly.
"Shut up, all of them!"
The old man took a deep breath and scolded loudly, and the guards who had been talking in a low voice around instantly closed their mouths, and they were silent one by one, and the entire merchant ship was left with only the sound of the sea breeze blowing the sails in an instant.
Andy looked at the old man in front of him and frowned slightly.
Under his perception, the old man didn't seem to be very powerful, but his eyes were very sharp, as if he could see through everything, and his eyes made Andy feel a little uncomfortable.
And it seems that this old man's status on the merchant ship is not low, at least it can be seen from the reaction of those guards that they are afraid of this guy.
"I think, a few of them shouldn't be ordinary pirates, right? Introduce yourself, the old man's surname is Wu, he is a general manager of the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce, today's incident is a misunderstanding, I can call the shots and give a few people some compensation, and take it as a rude apology to my subordinates, how about it?"
"What's wrong with Mr. Wu?"
"I heard you right! Manager Wu wants to compensate these two pirates!"
"Who are they! Legendary Pirate King!"
The guards exchanged in low voices, no one dared to question Chief Wu's decision, they were not even qualified to question it, but the two pirates were easily tied up by them, and this was what they were puzzled about.
"Get out of here! Get back to your posts! Two people, untie the ropes from them!"
Chief Wu listened to the discussion of the guards, clenched his fists, and scolded.
The guards acted obediently, and within the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce, the official chamber of commerce of the Tenglong Empire, there was a very strict class system, and they didn't dare to refute, they couldn't refute, they could only do it.
Andy's expression was a little dazed, and he didn't answer immediately.
This is a very traditional old man of the Dragon Empire, perhaps because of the head of the Chamber of Commerce, Andy can feel a special aura in him.
