Five days later, on the endless sea, the Liberty Sailor was on full sail.
Tong Guò's life on the ship these days, Xia Zuo has a certain understanding of the ship and Fern.
The Free Mariner had a total of thirty-seven sailors, two handymen, a maintenance mechanic and an apprentice mechanic, plus Captain Fern and First Officer Paul, a total of forty-three women.
Originally, the ship sailed from the British colony of Puerto Barnes, located on the Caribbean island of Cuba, and returned to France, but while passing through the Bermuda Sea, it encountered a storm and then got lost in the whirlpool sea and ran aground on a small island.
There was only one kind of cargo on this ship, and that was the refined cane sugar that is abundant in Cuba, an expensive ingredient that ordinary people could not afford, and on this ship, a whole 500 tons of refined cane sugar were loaded.
Although it encountered a storm, it did not cause much damage because the cargo was sealed well.
For this ocean-going trade, Fern smashed all his belongings, from the important French port of Brest to the port of Barnes in Cuba, it takes half a year to make a round trip, except for the common dangers at sea such as wind and waves, in this era of piracy, this kind of ocean-going trade is very likely to be plundered by pirates.
However, the danger is proportional to the benefit, and Fern has had enough of the North Atlantic weather, and he has decided that, once the trade is completed, he will terminate the North Atlantic trade plan and invest all his financial resources in the Mediterranean.
Originally, Fern was desperate, and without the auxiliary power of the steam engine, it would be difficult for the Freesailor to leave the Whirlpool Sea before a new storm came.
But I didn't expect that the young man who was rescued by chance. It turned out to be a mature mechanic who miraculously modified the steam engine to make it more powerful, and four and a half days ago, the Freesailor managed to break out of the whirlpool. Entered the normal commercial waterway.
According to the agreement, Fern gave Xia Zuo a hundred gold coins as a reward, and arranged the best room for Xia Zuo, and Xia Zuo became the most honored guest on the ship.
There is a reward for the effort, and if this is the case, Xia Zuo knows that he has done nothing wrong. I am also glad that I met a reasonable captain like Fern.
Cabin on the first floor, in the corridor.
There were no sailors wandering, there was no fighting at this time, the merchant ships were in normal motion, and most of the sailors, except for the helmsman, were resting. Some sailors played cards on deck.
Xia Zuo stood in the middle of the corridor, looking at the yellow wanted notice on it, his face was strange.
Those two wanted notices looked like they had been around for a long time, and the handwriting on them had been blurred, but Xia Zuo could still see what was written.
Mystery Android: Wanted bounty of 10 million gold coins.
Shazo Windsor: Wanted bounty of 1,000,000 gold coins.
To put it simply, this is what it means, Xia Zuo actually saw a wanted notice about himself. And it is strange not to see it on the walls of the tavern, nor on the bulletin boards of the city, but on this armed merchant ship.
The portrait of Xia Zuo above is Xia Zuo's appearance when he was fourteen years old, his face looks a little immature, with an inch head, and a scar on his chin, but there is still a sense of immaturity on his face.
Now Xia Zuo is eighteen years old, a standard adult. It may be related to energy, so Xia Zuo's temperament is more like that of his twenties, which is very different from him in the portrait, and he can't be said to be two people who are completely complete, but there are not many similarities. For example, Xia Zuo in the portrait has a scar on his chin, but Xia Zuo at this time does not.
"Mr. Uta, what are you looking at?" First Officer Paul walked into the cabin, saw Xia Zuo, and greeted him.
"Do you think I'm a bit like the wanted criminal above?" said Xia Zuo, pointing to the wanted notice on the wall.
"Well......" Paul looked at Xia Zuo, then at the wanted man above, first nodded, then shook his head, and said: "Yes, there is a little resemblance in the face shape, and there are eyes, but he has a scar on his face, you don't have ...... There are many similar-looking people in this world, Mr. Uta doesn't care, no one will misunderstand you. Paul smiled.
"Thanks, why is the wanted warrant here?" Xia Zuo asked again.
"Black Notice, the highest wanted warrant of the British Empire, distributed to the whole world, these two are what we found and pasted, that android is worth 10 million, as long as you provide clues, you don't need to arrest, maybe we can meet ......" Paul said with a smile.
"Uh-huh, I hope so!" Natsuzo shrugged and turned to walk towards his room.
In the exquisite guest room, the bedside table, the little devil Bud is lying on it, still sleeping, motionless, looking like a sculpture.
Xia Zuo didn't pay attention to him, and just lay back on the bed, looking at the ceiling and pondering.
Look, his current appearance should not arouse suspicion, unless a bounty hunter is eyeing him and suspecting him, or he has met an acquaintance, his identity may be revealed, otherwise, it should be very safe.
What he has to think about now is what to do when he arrives in France.
Buying a boat, traveling the world?
Xia Zuo wasn't sure what he should do, he was a little dazed, he had been on the mysterious island for too long, and even had the idea of staying there forever, but the reality told him that he couldn't do that, not anything else, just his parents in the desert decided that he couldn't stay on the island all the time.
At the very least, he has to go home to see his father and his lovely sister.
Millie was only five years old when Xia Zuo left, and now, five years have passed, and Millie is going to be ten years old, and she doesn't know how tall she has grown.
Thinking of this, the corners of Xia Zuo's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile, Millie didn't know if she still liked to eat metal so much.
Xia Zuo suddenly sat up, turned around and took out his package from under the pillow, and opened it to reveal the golden treasure chest inside.
This is his capital, originally on the mysterious island, he has a lot of fierce beast spirit beads, if they are all taken out, the value of those fierce beast spirit beads is immeasurable, but before leaving, Xia Zuo decided to leave all the fierce beast spirit beads to Guzana, Guzana is also a warrior, successfully awakened at the age of fifteen, is the most orthodox Achaean archer, but the strength is low.
Xia Zuo hopes that those beast spirits will help Guzana become a powerful warrior.
Opening the golden treasure chest, Xia Zuo looked at the dozen or so huge gems inside, thought about it, reached out and took out the smallest blue gem inside, saying that it was the smallest, but the blue should also be the size of a pigeon's egg.
Putting things back away, Natsuzo took the blue gem and went to the captain's lounge.
