Chapter 1764 Entrustment from an acquaintance

Jack Sparrow approached the uniformed personnel and asked in a low voice: "Man, we have no money, and I want to ask, what will happen if we don't pay the fine?"

"Yes, we have no money!" Gibbs also frowned.

As pirates, evading fines and evading taxes is their strength. To be precise, their strongest strength is running away.

At this moment, Gibbs is ready to start his engine and prepare to slip away at any time.

The uniformed officer smiled and took out two pieces of paper from his pocket. It was the exact same reward order that the bounty hunter just brought out.

"Jack Sparrow is a famous pirate."

"It's Captain Jack Sparrow." Jack Sparrow emphasized the word captain.

"Okay, Captain Jack!"

The uniform officer then looked at Gibbs again, and said, "You, Gibbs, a pirate first mate."

"You are all well-known figures in the sea. If you can't pay five silver coins, it will make people laugh."

"and"

"And what?" Jack Sparrow was naturally happy when he heard that he was the captain.

But when he heard the uniform officer say that he would be laughed at, he hesitated a little, but Jack Sparrow was often laughed at, so he didn't care about it.

"And you may not be able to escape at all." The man put the whistle in his mouth and blew it again.

The sound of the three-part long whistle immediately attracted many uniformed personnel wearing red hoops, and immediately surrounded Jack Sparrow and Gibbs in the middle.

The uniform officer raised his eyebrows, "Captain Jack, who has no money, come with us?"

Not surprisingly, Jack Sparrow and Gibbs fell into the hands of the local sheriff.

"Picking quarrels and provoking trouble, littering, and disturbing public order." Suddenly, Jack Sparrow and Gibbs had several charges on their heads.

In the prison, Gibbs looked at the small window on the prison with a look of hopelessness.

"Captain, will we be sent to dig bird droppings?"

"Shut up!" Jack Sparrow was in a bad mood at this moment, he was so unlucky that his teeth would get stuck after drinking cold water.

He feels like this is what he is doing right now.

There was a click, that was the sound of a key passing through the prison door and opening the lock.

"Jack Sparrow, the two of you have been released on bail, and you can go out after completing the formalities."

Gibbs froze for a moment, while Jack Sparrow looked out the door curiously, he wanted to see who bailed them out.

This time their cell door was opened directly, and a person outside looked at the two with a smile.

Gibbs also glanced back at Jack Sparrow, and the two looked at each other suspiciously.

Who is this man?They didn't know each other at all.

"The two gentlemen may not know me, my name is Lawrence Barkley, and I have been commissioned to bail the two gentlemen out."

"But there is a premise."

"Is there a premise?" Jack Sparrow sat back abruptly.

"Sorry, I'm fine here, I don't want to go anywhere."

This man was still smiling, but what he said later made Gibbs furious.

"Sorry, Mr. Jack Sparrow, maybe you still don't know what crime you have committed and what consequences you will get."

Gibbs turned to look at him, questioning and puzzled on his face.

"You have committed the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, disturbing public order, and interfering with public health. You will be punished for several crimes. You may be sent to Kamchatka."

"Kamchatka? What is that place?" Gips was not very familiar with this place name.

"Oh, that is a remote place. It is said that it is barren and full of savages, and there are volcanic eruptions all year round."

"And it's often icy and snowy, which belongs to a place where birds don't shit."

"Of course you will be exiled there and handed over to the local mining staff!"

"Volcano?" Gibbs shuddered. Others might not be very well informed, but he did know something.

For the volcano, he can only think of two words, sulfur.

"Are you going to send us to dig for sulfur?" Gibbs' voice was a little eager.

"Mr. Gibbs really knows a lot." Then, the man took out another piece of paper and waved it in front of Gibbs.

"Mr. Gibbs, this is a gambling debt you owe, but this gambling debt has now been transferred to our company, that is to say, according to this gambling debt, you may have to repay a large amount of money, as well as interest .” With that, he handed over the gambling debt contract to Gibbs.

"Although interfering with public order and picking quarrels and provoking trouble are petty crimes, at most you can be punished with a fine and several days of imprisonment, but because you owe a lot of money, if you can't repay, the debt will be transferred to us, and we can apply for compulsory exile , so you and Mr. Gibbs may have to sell your labor to pay back the money!"

As he said that, the man took out a small abacus from nowhere, started to fight, then looked at Gibbs and Jack Sparrow and said, "Well, you may have to work in Kamchatka for ten years before you can return the money." Pay off all gambling debts."

Gibbs stood up abruptly, "Fart, I just borrowed five hundred silver coins, how could it take ten years?"

"Sorry, gambling debts belong to usury. Although you have wiped off some of the interest beyond the usury when it was transferred to us, the labor assigned to Kamchatka may not have the salary you imagined, so ten years is basically lowest."

"Of course, if you are willing to still work on the volcano in the midst of the ice and snow." As he spoke, he thought again, "Maybe it will be reduced by another two years."

"In other words, the two of you must stay in Kamchatka for at least eight years before you can regain your freedom and pay off your debts."

Digging Brimstone Gibbs knows all too well that this is a job with no bottom line.Digging sulfur can really dig dead people.

The feet will rot, the lungs will be injured, and the throat will be sore and uncomfortable. I have to deal with the smoke from these volcanoes every day, and the road I walk is also bumpy.

What's more, it is said that the Surveyor is still a place of ice and snow. As soon as Gibbs thinks about it, he feels that the rest of his old life is almost ruined.

Jack Sparrow was unusually calm. He looked at the man in front of him and smiled, "Is there a second choice?"

The man smiled, "Sure enough, it is Captain Jack, who can always grasp the key to the problem."

"Indeed you have a second choice." He said.He took out another item from his bag and handed it to Jack Sparrow.

"This is a letter of entrustment. As long as you complete this entrustment, your gambling debts will be canceled and you will get 1000 gold coins."

Jack Sparrow hooked the corner of his mouth, "Trident! Are you from Roy Smith!"

"No, no, no, we don't have that much energy to get in touch with the consul. This is what a former acquaintance of yours asked me to bring to you."

Jack Sparrow looked at Gibbs next to him, the two looked at each other, and Gibbs nodded.

"Looks like I don't have much choice, does it?"

The man raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, I accept the commission!"
