Black sail

Chapter 37 XXXVII. The Game
Everything has been negotiated, from the reception location, precautions, and specific remuneration.

Neither side had any more questions.

During the banquet, the waiter gave the Earl's family the two-copper-coin heavy gold rum brought by Liszt. The expressions of the four of them were quite exciting, and it was the first time that something so spicy and low-quality was served.

Li Si Te is not a person without a sense of value, and his group of fugitives cannot stay overnight at the Earl's house, and they should leave after eating and dessert.

This is the first time I have seen the Earl, and it may be the last time.

Li Site and his party took Jinlong to leave. If there is a destiny, they can cooperate in the future.

After Heifan and his group left.

The earl's son looked at the empty long table dumbfounded.

Treating guests to dinner here in the Western Continent is the same as Li Site's hometown. No matter whether you can finish the meal or not, the noodles must be full. It is normal for a nobleman to treat guests with twenty or thirty dishes.

Upholding the idea of ​​not losing money, Li Si Te packed his mother's clothes and went home. The cows and horses on the boat were the standard civilians of the Principality of Bema who were only willing to eat meat during the Chinese New Year.

"Is it really suitable, one hundred golden dragons a day..."

The earl's son thinks that his father is a bit too generous, plus the [-] gold dragons given to them by the sheriff before, yesterday's [-] gold dragons, just now was another [-], and then [-] gold dragons will be sent over. It is already an astronomical figure that cannot be used up in several lifetimes. Even for the entire family, it is a huge expense, and a piece of thigh meat was gouged out.

"There are no people who can reach their level. They know in their hearts that this is a mission to escape death. This is not the money to let them work, but the money to buy their lives."

The count walked to the window, and half of the low-quality rum was still in the glass. He tasted this choking spicy seriously. The so-called pirates are such wonderful creatures. The land has also created lunatics who can't be viewed from the perspective of the terrestrial environment, and dance on a tightrope with their lives tied to them.

"A pirate's life...is it worth the money?"

The earl's son also understands that this matter is of great importance, but the privateer certificate is not a matter of friendship, and gifts have been arranged in advance, and everything added up is really worthless.

"You still have a lot to learn. You should know that the secret port we opened has been losing money. The berthing fees for smuggling ships and pirates are only a drizzle, and the tariffs you can avoid are quite limited. It's not as good as my relationship and I sent a lot of money to the admiral, do you understand why I keep driving it?"

asked the count to his son.

He guessed for a while, "Because... the other nobles in Linden City also have secret ports. If we don't open them, it will only make them bigger and bigger?"

"Well... it's pretty smart, but that's just one thing. It's like a big restaurant in the inner city. If they grow all their ingredients and raise them in captivity, they will save a considerable amount of money, but only fools would do that. You have to understand, After the business grows, there will be great difficulties. Some things must be entrusted to others, some money must be earned by outsiders, and some wronged money must be spent. The steel blade is on."

The count didn't say much anymore, he was young and didn't understand what it meant, even if the lord arrived safely in Lavender Town without any pursuers, he would never be sent out with his own boat, he had to be completely picked out, as long as he was stained with With the slightest relationship, the lives of the whole family are in danger.

Besides, it is impossible without chasing soldiers, and Heifan and his group must understand that.

The earl's son was stunned. Should he spend it on the steel blade or not? Do he have to buy a probability or something?After all, what the earl said most often is that the world is a completely chaotic gambling game, and all people can do is to continuously increase their probability of success in the game and the trial and error costs accumulated by chips.

The latter is sometimes far more important than the former.

More than an hour later.

Secret Harbor.

The food on the boat tonight is very bad, and it is served by the swamp chef Wollman, and the complicated cooking process is also very particular. First, boil a large pot of water, then pour in the uncut vegetable leaves, sprinkle some seasonings, and finally Junk ingredients often require only the simplest of cooking methods.

The process took Mr. Wollman 2 minutes and his time was limited.

Because the lunch was quite luxurious, they were suddenly brought back to reality, and the sailors on the ship looked at the boiled vegetable leaves in the bowl in a daze.

"Forcibly raised, picky eaters, right?"

Walman is not feeling well, Archer is paralyzed into mud again, and he drank too much fruit wine made by the wood elves, and he is still a little weak, and now he is lying on the infusion in the ship's infirmary to sober up.

"How is Archer?"

Woerman saw Micah come out, and asked, it's better to die, so that a chef can be hired on board, Archer is a bit like the roommate with cerebral palsy that he met in school, daily necessities such as soap rolls I don’t buy it myself, I only use other people’s, so I can’t say how bad it is, it’s just disgusting, plus I’m a drunkard, I like to pretend I don’t know the occasion, and I’m so disgusted by people that I’m almost full of talismans up.

"Fortunately, I don't know how his liver grew."

Micah used a special diuretic to check Archer's liver function. The indicators turned out to be quite normal. He was born to be a drunkard.

At this time, Li Si Te and his party came back.

"Fuck! It's done!"

Ren yelled, because no one came to kill Li Site and the others, they were all alive and kicking, knowing that the matter was settled, big job, start!
"Why did you come back with something?"

Xia Di took a closer look and found that what they were carrying was a drawer box for packing meals.

"Isn't this brought back for everyone to have a try?"

Li Si Te and his party put down the drawer and called for all the sailors to come over.

Although it was already cold, it was still possible to eat it. After opening the drawer, the eyes of the people on this boat almost popped out after they had never seen such big ingredients.

A few people volunteered to make some mashed potatoes to serve.

"There seem to be more people."

Li Site looked at the people on the first deck. Because the big bunk at the bottom of the ship was not very ventilated, he liked to stay on the deck before going out to sea.

"Today, eight people were taken in. They belonged to a group of bandits from the north. Their lair was raided by the local Viscount. Only eight of them survived. They have the experience of escaping from death, so they should be reliable in killing."

Oaks said this to Li Site, and briefly tried the skills of these people, they were the most able to fight among the small roles, and it would be no problem to be a silver-level adventurer.

"Captain! I heard that there is a big job ahead, so you can do whatever you want!"

The sudden appearance of a big man with tattoos of skulls on his bald head made Li Si Te unable to deal with it.

Li Si Te was very impressed with this bald tattooed guy, he was very energetic.

"It's still early, don't rush. You should go to Linden City to stock up on the goods these two days, and you should be familiar with the process. Starting tomorrow, if the goods on the order have not yet been delivered, you should pay attention to them. They must be completed within ten days, and all will be shipped." Get on the ship, we will go to sea within half a month. This is not a joke, it is a big deal. If there is any lack of supplies during the voyage, it will kill people. If you do it well, you will be promoted, just like the navy, private eighth One month of silver coins, ten silver coins for a skilled private first class, thirteen silver coins for a private first class, twenty silver coins for a captain with ten sailors, you should be able to be a captain with your size."

Li Si Te made a judgment. Next, the core members have to deal with big tasks. No matter how many of these small roles there are, they can’t stand up to Killing Brother. It’s quite a positive comparison to hand over the chores of loading goods to this tattoo guy. I figured out that I wanted to be a part-time official.

The tattooed man immediately laughed.

"If it doesn't work, please behead me."

He said so.

Li Si Te was in awe, damn it, this young man.

"Then I'll leave it to you. There are not only dead wages on the ship. Like every pirate ship, there are dividends. Then it is considered a golden dragon. You understand what I mean."

Li Si Te patted the tattooed man on the shoulder.

The next thing to do is to compete with the backbone, the matter of the sky punisher and the moon swordsman.
