Chapter 297: Haibaofang
As soon as the three masters died, according to the rules, all the guards in the same company had to bear the responsibility for the ineffective guards, which was a crime to kill the head.
Fortunately, at that time, the leader spoke, thinking that the enemy was too strong, and everyone was a desperate guard, and there were heavy casualties, so they should not be held responsible.
In this way, the few surviving guards can be regarded as escaping death, but if the responsibility is not pursued, there will definitely be no reward.
Wang Husheng has become a waste, and naturally he can't fight at sea anymore, and it is difficult to even be a logist, so he has to retreat from the fleet.
Thinking of his past achievements, and the Wang family is indeed not easy, he arranged Wang Husheng in the Fire Thief City, and gave him a guide sign to make a living.
At that time, the rules were still very strict, and just such a guide sign was also worth a lot of money, and many people couldn't ask for it, and it was more than enough to support their families.
But Wang Husheng went through this catastrophe, but he was completely depressed, and there was no catastrophe that would not die and there would be a blessing, but he borrowed wine every day to drown his sorrows, and died within a few years.
At that time, Wang Pipi had just come of age, and the Wang family was a small family with a small family, and there were not a few branches in total, and most of them were not mixed well, but they were all begging for a living in the "Black Flag" system, and they could be regarded as the natives of the Fire Thief City.
Wang Husheng died, and his wife had long been missing, so Wang Pipi had to fend for himself, but fortunately, there were family elders to help take care of him, and finally let him inherit Wang Husheng's guide brand, so that he would not be reduced to begging on the street.
This is Wang Pipi's past, the children of the poor have long been in charge, and he doesn't have much ability, although he didn't die after taking the transformation potion, and he also opened up the sea of qi, but he has no talent in martial arts cultivation at all, and he is far worse than his father.
At this age, Wang Pipi has barely advanced to a two-star martial artist, and in the Little Black Tide District, it is really the bottom of the salted fish battle five scum, and many areas where the radiation is too strong, he can't get close, he is really a weak chicken.
But if you want to be a guide, this Wang Pipi is very talented, at least a few streets better than his father, and in the entire guide of the Fire Thief City, Wang Pipi is also a well-known industry elite.
It's a pity that in this day and age, although the "Black Flag" is still strong and invincible in the nearby seas, with the inheritance of generations, various stereotypes and bad habits have gradually accumulated, and now this dominant pirate group is becoming more and more bloated and rigid.
The most obvious is the enforcement of the rules, which is far less than before, and the rules formulated in those early years seem to be very good, which has also created the rise and prosperity of the "Black Flag".
But now, no matter how good the rules are, the process of implementation has completely changed, and even many rules have not been implemented at all, and some have long been forgotten.
Wang Pipi's guide industry is also facing such a problem.
In the past, the licensing system was strictly enforced, and no sign was absolutely not allowed to engage in guide work, and once it was reported and caught, it was all killed.
According to Wang Pipi, when he was a child, his father was still a pirate on the ship, and when he was on vacation, he often took him to the south gate of the city to see the head of the thief to exercise his courage.
At that time, there were often black guides who were on duty without a license, and they were caught at the south gate and beheaded.
But now, there are more unlicensed black guides, and there are a lot of them in the outer city, that is, there is a place like an inn, and they don't dare to enter, and other places are flooded at all.
These black guides not only disrupt the market, but also often collude with bandits, robbing and killing guests, causing a very bad impact.
But over the years, Wang Pipi has not seen a few times the black guide was caught at the south gate to beheaded, and even if there were, it was to provoke people who shouldn't be messed with, or to do it up and down without doing it properly.
In the past, it was reported one by one, but now it is reported and no one cares, I don't know how many people have made a fortune by relying on this gray chain of interests, how can they cut off this road of wealth?
This kind of practice naturally makes the reputation of the Fire Thief City worse and worse, and there are often merchants and travelers who come and go, and no one knows where they died.
Of course, most of the dead are unlucky ghosts who are not strong enough, or there is no backstage, the influence is limited, and the Fire Thief City is still prosperous, but in the eyes of a discerning person like Wang Pipi, the city is declining a little bit.
Returning to the wizard industry, being manipulated like this, the license brand that was worth a lot of money before is naturally not very valuable.
But it's not worthless, and it even has a certain value, especially an old family heirloom brand like Wang Pipi, which is filed in the "Black Flag".
It's much better than those new brands that didn't have a record later, at least ordinary people don't dare to touch a hard bone like Wang Pipi, otherwise something will really happen, and it will not end well.
"Alas, in fact, I also know in my heart that if it weren't for the fact that our Wang family is a senior veteran of the "Black Flag", although there are no big names, after all, it is an old pirate family for many years, and it can be regarded as having some foundation in the fleet.
Otherwise, just with such a brand, even if it is filed, it still can't scare those bold guys. ”
Wang Pipi smiled self-deprecatingly at the end, then pointed to a shop in front of him, and returned to the topic: "Brother Dog, that "Haibaofang" is the largest seafood trading house in the Fire Thief City, specializing in all kinds of high-end seafood, including the "Snow Salt" you want. ”
"Well, go in and have a look, whether you buy it or not, it's good to look at the vision first. ”
Chen Mu strode over, and Wang Pipi hurriedly followed.
When they arrived at the door, they were guarded by two guards with spears, these two people were wearing good sea beast skin armor, and their figures were also tall and mighty.
Click!
Seeing Chen Mu and Wang Pipi coming, the two of them crossed the fishbone spear in their hands violently, blocking the door, and the man on the right raised his eyebrows and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"
Yo, Chen Mu was also a little confused, saying that other people's families were doing business, and they were afraid that the guests would not come, why did this business seem to be afraid that the guests would not be scared away, it was simply wonderful.
Wang Pipi was knowledgeable, and hurriedly stepped forward with a dry smile, flipped his palm, and showed his guide sign: "Hehe, two big brothers, this is a guest I brought, he wants to buy some "snow salt", so I brought him over." ”
His guide sign is a piece of dark fine iron, with the emblem of the "Black Flag" engraved on the front and a coded record on the back.
The production style of the brand is very rough and not fine, but the carving on it has a unique style, and at a glance you can see that it is a product of the "black flag" in the early years, which is much tougher than now.
