Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 154 The Battle of Flying Sails
Deed of Sale?
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly became a little strange and ambiguous.
Paladin Dixon, who has never cared about etiquette, couldn't help but whistle, and looked at Wells with a playful look in his eyes.
At first, this bald man who was more than two meters tall was taken aback by Wells's beauty and delicacy that surpassed that of a half-elf. Even if Midi explained it carefully, he still refused to believe that Wells was a man, believing that this was a lady dressed as a man.
Unexpectedly, this beautiful young man now exposed himself that the ironclad ship with such fierce firepower, plus two three-masted schooner clippers, was actually just to catch a woman and come back to sign the deed of sale?
Although this is definitely not a glorious thing, this stroke is big enough, extravagant enough, and squandering enough.
Hearing this, Kanina, who was regarded as the "prey", and Sothea, who was almost caught, naturally turned extremely ugly, and the eyes that looked at the beautiful man Wells were even more contemptuous, disgusted and hateful.
Even Midi couldn't help but frown.
The reason why he broke into the ship alone, captured Wells, and then let the two sides sit down and negotiate without fear of trouble, was because of the quality that Wells had shown in previous naval battles, and the skills used by this ironclad ship, which aroused his interest and thought that he could use it for his own use.
But now, if the beautiful man in front of him is really such an abominable prodigal who spends excessively and forces good people to become prostitutes, then his thinking will naturally be overturned.
No matter how high the talent and IQ are, if the personality is bad, then everything is meaningless, not only can it not be a help, but it will even become a scourge.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Seeing the flickering eyes of everyone, and the glint in Midi's eyes, Wells was a little confused at first. But soon, Dixon's evil gaze made him understand what was going on.
Wells, who was fairer than women, suddenly appeared two flushes, and he didn't know whether it was shame or anger, and his voice suddenly raised an octave: "When I say the deed of sale, I mean that the maritime aspect is not what you think, don't think crookedly these two women are not as good as I am, how can I be interested?"
"Maritime?" both Kanina and Sothea looked skeptical.
Seeing that the other party didn't believe that he was moving for the sake of "maritime", Wells didn't care, just sneered, and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "Do you think that as the young master of the Feifan family, life will be very good?"
As the saying goes, everyone has their own difficulties, although Wells, as the sixth heir to the Feifan family, seems to outsiders to be majestic, but from the perspective of the family, he is just the "sixth" heir. There are four brothers in the front of the queue alone, and there is a talented and imposing sister.
As one of the few big families on the West Coast, the Feifan family not only has a large number of caravans and fleets, but also controls a number of trade routes with other countries, and has extremely close business contacts with the Hamilton family.
For a family like this, the internal competition is naturally extremely fierce.
Wells is in sixth place and is in an awkward position of not being up or down.
He himself is a level 3 mechanic, which is already a relatively low level in this turbulent era when monsters mutate and level up easily. To make matters worse, his mother came from a small merchant family and had no background at all, but it was because of her beautiful birth that she was favored by the head of the family.
In normal times, the mother is favored, and the son can naturally benefit. However, Wells's mother died eight years ago, so Wells himself can be said to have faded out of the sight of the head of the family for a long time, and without the strong backing of his mother, it can be said that he is single-handed, and he can't fight against the top few siblings at all.
It would also be a good thing if we completely withdrew from the succession competition.
It's just that the succession of the Feifan family is based on age, so Wells can't get out at all.
Unless he dies, he can only stay stuck in the sixth position.
And sixth, it is a position that is very likely to threaten the top few. Once the first few people tore their faces and started to fight, it is impossible to say that the fishermen will benefit from the fifth and sixth places.
Naturally, Wells will not receive a lot of "care" from the previous big brothers and sisters because of this reason.
The strength is weak, but he can't get out, and he can only struggle helplessly in the whirlpool of power.
This is the greatest sorrow of Wells over the years.
Now, he has learned from the pain and finally decided to give it a go, so in recent years, he has spent countless efforts to secretly research an ironclad ship powered by a magic array, which greatly surpasses the ships currently owned by the Feifan family in all aspects of performance.
After the success of the study, Wells was naturally ecstatic. In this way, whether it is to enhance his strength or to get rid of the whirlpool of family inheritance, he has a certain amount of bargaining chips, and he can use the ironclad ship to directly go to the head of the family to make conditions, or from now on he will become a talent specializing in skills, and he will no longer have to look at anyone's face.
It's a pity that the opportunity has not yet come, and the family's first heir, Sharan Feifan, Wells's most feared eldest brother, has already gotten the news, so he intends to monopolize Wells's research results under the pretext of saying that "there are only ironclad ships but no seafarers, and they can't exert their true strength at all".
At this point, Wells has no room for maneuver.
Unless he builds his own fleet, the ship, the blueprints, and even the technical staff he brought up will be embezzled by Brother Shalan.
However, as a weak heir, where does Wells have any mature seafaring strength in his hands?
In desperation, he could only find a way to borrow some ordinary crew members from his mother's family, and then tried to use this newly launched "Conqueror" to catch some real famous captains to serve him.
The strategic thinking is clear, the tactics are ingenious, and the ironclad ship is also very powerful, but unfortunately, Wells met Midi in the first battle.
So, it became what it is now.
Regarding Wells's statement, the two female captains were still skeptical.
Still, Midi didn't doubt it.
At his level, the amount of intelligence in his hand far exceeds that of an individual, go ashore to investigate, and then verify with Belmar, he will naturally be able to know the situation of the Feifan family in recent years.
Wells is a smart guy and probably wouldn't lie about it, that doesn't make sense.
And if there was not much exaggeration in what he said, Midi suddenly felt that his opportunity had come.
Midi's ultimate goal is to find Sky City, and before everyone else.
To achieve this goal, it is necessary to have sufficient influence and control over the entire West Coast region in the shortest possible time.
How do you get started? It's nothing more than four words.
Maritime.
Dojo.
As for the dojo, Midi has her own conclusion.
In terms of maritime affairs, isn't Wales the best entry point?
For the newcomer, it was undoubtedly the best opportunity to get in touch with the big maritime families on the West Coast.
Besides, he really didn't expect that this man, who was more beautiful than women, was actually a genius mechanic, and he personally designed the ironclad ship
In Midi's mind, although this person can't be equated with Master Norton, his importance has risen to a new level.
In the previous life, although Midi had not heard of the name Wells Sail, this did not mean that he was not talented, but it was quite possible that he was unfortunately wiped out in the family strife.
But in this life, since he was encountered by a commander like Midi who attaches great importance to skills, how can there be any reason to stand by and watch?
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Wells is just a commoner, as long as he has this kind of talent, this kind of talent, Midi is willing to do it
As soon as Wells spoke, countless thoughts had already turned through Midi's mind, and now, he had a conclusion in his mind.
"I have a general understanding of the situation. Midillo groaned, and finally spoke, with a majesty in his tone, and the whole hall became silent because of this, "Don't think about the deed of sale, but if it is a normal employment contract, what do the two captains think?"
"What?"
Sothea and Kanina looked at each other, unresponsive for a moment.
How did this hidden Mr. Feiai suddenly become the lobbyist of the Wells?
Even Wells, who has always been extremely flexible, is stunned at the moment.
He was the attacker, the perpetrator, and now the loser of the battle, the prisoner of Midi. Under Wells's best expectations, the next result was nothing more than being taught a lesson by Midi, and then bleeding profusely, using his hard-earned private money to redeem himself, and if he didn't do it, he would have to put this ironclad ship on board.
But now, Midi is going to help him recruit the captain?
Wells couldn't figure it out.
But he wisely kept his composure, and continued to wait without saying a word.
Canina, on the other hand, immediately stood up after coming to her senses, glanced at the calm Wells with angry eyes, and finally stopped at Midi's face with a nail-like gaze.
"Okay, I just know that you must have deliberately smashed my boat, and then deliberately came out to save me, one sang with a red face, the other with a white face, and the last thing was to force me to obey, do you treat others as fools?" Kanina said angrily.
Her words are naturally full of empty speculation and full of loopholes.
However, Midi didn't care, and didn't even bother to refute, but turned her eyes to the other person, the red-haired female captain of the Southern Sky Star.
"The attitude of the Albatross, I already know. What about you?" asked Midi firmly.
"Mr. Fiai, Canina's ship has suffered heavy losses in the previous battle, and many of its crew members have died, so it is inevitable that the attitude will be excessive. Sothea stood up, bowed slightly, and then, looking earnestly at Midi from the front, "But, for the hiring of the Feifan family, I hope you can give a better reason, a reason that is favorable to everyone, otherwise, I will not be able to make a decision." ”
