Chapter 22 Problems that can be solved with money are not problems

An hour later, the Spreading Wings, the Rising Sun, and the Goddess of Victory, Elis, carried Neval and the captured pirates to an island about forty kilometers southeast of the site of last night's robbery.

The island, which Regsar named Thundering Island, is not that small, and if you look at it from the tall deck of the Spreading Wings, you can't even see the border on the other side of the island.

And the lateral distance between the left and right, according to Neval's naked eye estimates, is at least more than five kilometers.

In the distance, some women and children gathered on the beach, and three huge magic steamers approached, and the group of women and children made a commotion and made a sound of chirping, and some of them were jumping and seeming to be very excited.

"Are these the relatives of your pirate group?" Neval asked Regsar beside him.

"Hmm. Regsar nodded expressionlessly.

"How many people are there on the island now? I mean add these women and children. Neval asked again.

Regsar glanced at Neval with a strange expression, and his heart moved, and a look of surprise crossed his face.

These three ships are equipped with weapons of such power, and I am afraid that they are not ordinary merchants.

This guy now cares about the women and children on the island, and they are the ...... Are they actually human traffickers?

Seeing the strange expression on Regesar's face, Neval didn't know that he was wrong, but it didn't matter, now that Regesar and more than a hundred of his men were in his hands, he was not afraid of what tricks he could come up with.

"Tell me how many people there are, and if there are enough people, maybe I can think of a better way to cooperate. ”

Hear Neval say the word "cooperation" again. Regsar still felt a little unbelievable.

He couldn't figure it out anyway. What is the value of being able to cooperate with him.

"Hmm...... Plus brothers. There are now just over 500 people on the island. Regsar replied honestly.

"Five hundred...... It's not enough, but it's okay. Neval thought for a moment and gestured behind him.

Behind him, the two sailors on the Spreading Wings nodded and left, and after a while, Regsar heard the sound of several crashing waves.

"Let's go to the island together. ”

Puzzled, Regsar followed Neval to the side of the Winged Wings and saw Neval holding on to a rope. Slipped straight down.

Regsar looked down and saw that Neval had landed on a ship that was slightly larger than the wooden sailboat they were using, but it was also made of fine iron.

"Let's go down. The two sailors behind him gave Regesar a push.

At this point, Regersar didn't think much about it, grabbed the rope, and slipped down easily.

A moment later, several sailors similarly slipped down the rope.

Then Regersar saw Neval press a button on a platform that looked very complicated at the bow of the ship, and the hull shook slightly, and then rushed forward.

In just a few moments, the ship was able to increase its speed to extremely high speed. Completely faster than the fastest boat Regersar had ever seen in his life when it was downwind.

Regersar looked at the meter-high waves raised by the sides of the ship on both sides, and his heart was full of surprise.

I was just on that huge steel monster called the Magic Steamer. He thought it was very fast, and now the boat was much faster.

It only took two minutes for the boat to carry the group over a distance of more than 1,000 meters between the Spreading Wings and the pirates.

Neval and the sailors jumped out of the boat and carried Regsar to the island.

Behind them, several identical iron boats came to rest, with the spray of the waves.

In addition to the dozens of sailors with strangely looking crossbow arrows jumping down from above, there were several young men and women who were well-dressed and elegant, and whose skin was far less tanned than that of the sailors.

"Commander Regesar, pick a few people who are more familiar with the situation on the island and lead them around the island. Neval smiled and said to Regsar.

Regsar finally couldn't help it: "I said, what the hell do you want to do? But if you don't kill or not, if you don't let go, what do you want?"

"I told you that I want to work with you. Neval smiled slightly, but Regersar wanted to punch him in the face.

"We're all pirates, what can we do with you?"

"Don't look down on yourself too much. Neval smiled and waved his hand. "Pirates are also valuable, especially if you still have this nice island. Alright, as I said, pick a few people out. Remember, don't play tricks, your hundred or so brothers are still in my hands. ”

Regsar glared at Neval, walked over to the stunned relatives of the pirate group, and confessed.

After a while, five young women and two old men came out of it.

Neval took a look, asked the two old men to retreat, and divided the other five young women into three groups, and the young men and women with different temperaments who were also divided into three groups, and cooperated with the ten sailors who came down from the ship, and headed for the island.

After they left, Neval entered the island's pirate colony with dozens of heavily armed sailors and Regsar behind him.

Although this pirate Regsar has been in business for a long time, the Thundering Pirates are only a group of pirates after all, and the resources are not very abundant, so so far, there is not even a decent house on this island, and the residents of the island only live in random tree houses made of wood, and they can't even do the most basic shelter from the wind and rain.

Neval observed the condition of the houses and seemed more satisfied.

After a while, he pulled Regsar to sit down on a stone in front of a treehouse.

"Hey, Captain Regesar, looking at the situation here, you Thundering Pirates don't seem to be doing well. ”

Regsar snorted, "Nonsense! If you really have money, who would run to be a pirate." ”

"Well, that makes sense. Neval nodded, the smile on his face even brighter. "So Captain Regesar, do you want to give the people of the pirate group a better life?"

Regsar narrowed his eyes and looked at Neval for a moment.

"Are you kidding?"

"No, I didn't mean to joke. Captain Regesar, I actually do mean to cooperate with you. You see, we actually came all the way from the Duchy of Stantin, and we are not familiar with the situation here, so we are very much in need of the cooperation of you, who is familiar with the nearby seas. ”

Regsar shook his head as he glanced at the three giant steel ships parked outside the island.

"You don't need our help at all. If you need to familiarize yourself with the neighborhood, you can go to Nissi City and ask for help. ”

"To be honest, we did go to Nissee City for business this time. But well...... Captain Regesar, I'm sure you should be well aware that there are some things that are difficult to do through the guò authorities......"

Looking at the meaningful smile on Neval's face, Regsar's heart moved, and his mind instantly became active.

Listening to what this guy is saying, he seems to need something else...... Help?

Thinking of this, the expression on Regsar's face was no longer as cold as just now, paused, and asked, "Then you sue me, what is the benefit to me and our pirate group by cooperating with you?"

"The first choice is money. Neval touched it casually in his bosom and pulled out a handful of gold coins.

The sun was blazing, and the gold coins reflected a golden glow on Neval's hand, causing Regesar and the islanders to breathe quickly as they watched from afar.

"Secondly...... There are many benefits beyond money, but I'm afraid you won't believe it if I say it. That's it......" Neval glanced and beckoned to one of the sailors behind him. "Hayes, come on. ”

The sailor walked over, glanced up and down at Regosar, then at the inhabitants of the surrounding islands, and shook his head with a look of disdain.

Regersar was furious at the sight of his gaze, and was about to glare back, only to be drawn in by his next sentence.

"Hey, my name is Hayes, and I'm from the sea outside the Black Rice Wasteland, on an island called Carrasga, and I used to be a pirate just like you. Life on the island used to be a little bit better than you do now, and it was just as hard. But since we were in the heart of the Elder, life has been completely different for everyone......"

......

"Neval, is it okay for you to do this?" In the distance, Neval's lieutenant asked Neval as he looked worriedly at Hayes and Regsar, who were talking. "But the elder said, as long as we find out the route this time, we will have completed the mission. Aren't you afraid that the elders will be angry?"

"What do you think...... Do I dare to make my own decisions without the Lord's instructions?" Neval glanced faintly at his deputy.

The deputy was surprised: "So...... Is that what it means to grow up?"

"I can't say that it is exactly what I mean to be an adult. Neval shook his head. "However, before leaving, the Lord General explained to me in private, asking me to find an opportunity to find a sea supply base similar to Carrasga Island in the waters of the Ruerson Kingdom. I was wondering how to complete this task, but this group of pirates came to the door. ”

The deputy suddenly realized: "I see, no wonder I have always said that with our reserves, we can speed up and definitely get to Nissi City in time, but you have been unhurried, but you are always worried about supplies." ”

Neval smiled, "This is the first time I've come out and done the task alone. If you don't do it beautifully, how can you make the elders look at it differently?"

The deputy nodded, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

Neval looked at Regesar, who was listening intently in the distance, and smiled, "It's easy. The elder said that problems that can be solved with money are not problems. And this group of pirates is just short of money. (To be continued......)
