Infinite Movie World

Chapter 680 A person's decision can be changed

Xue Di took Lin Hai to the port.

A dock manager wearing a wide-brimmed sun hat came up to him, "Hey, you're going wrong. This is the merchant shipping port, and the passenger ship dock is on the other side!"

Xue Di said flatly: "You are right, we are here to rent a boat."

The dock manager was startled, and then said with a smile on his face: "So it's the big boss! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I don't know what kind of boat you two want to rent?"

"Fast, strong, and it's better to have the captain and sailors attached." Xuedi said briefly.

The dock manager said with a smile: "That's simple. We have twenty or thirty fast and strong ships moored in the port of St. Maarten! The captains and sailors are also very rich, but the price may be slightly more expensive."

Lin Hai asked, "What price?"

The dock manager said: "Renting a boat starts at least one month, 1000 gold coins per month. If there are special requirements, additional money will be added. Of course, before renting a boat, you have to pay 130% of the dock management fee. Service fee and stamp duty, etc., total [-] gold coins."

This amount is definitely a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but it is nothing to Xue Di.

Just now Xufeng had given her a starting capital of 3000 gold coins.

Although Xue Di wanted to refuse, but finally accepted.

Xuedi asked: "Is there any ship that has been in contact with pirates recently?"

The dock manager was stunned for a moment, "You are talking about unlucky ships, right? Don't worry, I won't introduce you to unlucky ships that encountered pirates recently."

Xuedi said blankly: "How much is the rent for the unlucky boat?"

The dock manager sneered, "Do you still dare to rent a ship that is unlucky? Are you afraid that your money will be wasted? Or even your life will be ruined?"

Xue Di said coldly: "This is my own business."

The dockmaster shrugged, "Okay, now I wish..."

He looked down at the ship registry in his hand, and then said with a smile: "There really is such a ship—the Caesar. This ship encountered the Barbossa pirate ship three days ago, and all the cargo was looted. If it weren't for the fact that the captain and Barbossa are from the same village, the Caesar would have been sunk long ago. The rent of this ship is not expensive, 500 gold coins a month is enough, but... the captain has been scared out of his wits , will not go to sea in a short time."

Xue Di said lightly: "Okay, this is it."

The dock manager quickly said: "Wait, I just said that the captain was frightened. He won't go to sea in a short time."

Xue Di said coldly: "You don't need to worry about that, you just need to arrange the release of the Caesar the Great."

The dockmaster shrugged, "Of course, just pay."

Xue Di glanced at Lin Hai, and Lin Hai immediately handed over 130 gold coins for the dock management fee to the dock manager.

The dock manager said cheerfully: "I'm going to arrange the preparations for the voyage here. Oh, yes, the captain of the Caesar is in the fire bar in St. Martin. The captain's name seems to be... Wait for me to check."

The dockmaster flipped through the thick register, glanced at it, and said, "Here—Abbot Charles."

"Okay, got it." Xue Di turned around and walked towards the town.

The Fire Bar is easy to find, it's near the pier, and it's exclusively for the crew.

It reeks of alcohol and the floor is full of vomit that hasn't been cleaned for days and nights.

The bar was full of smoky smoke and drunks.

There is also a bar girl who shuttles among the drunkards, dressed in cool clothes, but with an average appearance and figure.

It's hard to find top-quality goods in this kind of place.

Lin Hai whispered, "Xuedi, let me go to this kind of place."

Xuedi said expressionlessly: "No need."

She walked straight towards the bar.

The bartender glanced at Xuedi's terrifying scarred face, and then said with disgust: "Where did you come from? Get out of my bar quickly! Don't affect the appetite of my guests."

Xue Di said coldly: "I'm asking someone, Aibo Charles."

The bartender didn't pay any attention to Xue Di's question, and directly took out a dagger and stuck it on the bar in front of him, "Get lost!"

Xue Di lowered his head and glanced, and found that the bar counter was densely covered with traces of blades.

Obviously, this is not the first time the bartender has threatened others.

But this is understandable, after all, the Sailor Bar is a mixed bag, as the bartender who manages the bar, if you are not tough, you may not be able to support it.

Xuedi took out a gold coin expressionlessly and threw it on the bar counter.

The bartender's eyes lit up, and he put down his dagger to get the gold coin.

Xuedi then quickly grabbed the dagger, and ruthlessly thrust the back of the bartender's hand on the bar counter.

The bartender screamed in pain.

A few strong men who were drinking next to the bar stood up with a huff.

Xue Di flashed his thunder sword, turned his head and said coldly: "You are looking for death!"

How did those strong men stand up and sit down? They didn't even have the courage to look up.

The bartender said in pain: "Forgive me! Forgive me!"

Xuedi said coldly: "I asked you a question, but you haven't answered me, and you can't make a request until I get an answer."

Saying that, Xue Di inserted the handle of the knife forcefully again.

The bartender hissed in pain, "I say! I say! Captain Abbott Charles is in room 203 on the second floor."

Xue Di drew out the dagger, and said coldly: "Gold coins reward you for healing."

After finishing speaking, he ignored the bartender who was trembling with fear, and went straight up the stairs to the second floor.

After finding room 203, Xuedi kicked the door open.

The people in the room got up from the bed with sleepy eyes, "... who is it?"

Xuedi asked coldly: "Abbo Charles?"

"Yes, but who are you? It's really rude of you to break in like this!" The middle-aged bald man with a decadent expression frowned and protested.

Xue Di said coldly: "You don't need to know who I am, all you need to know is that I came to rent your boat and gave you 10 minutes. Within 10 minutes, I will meet you on the Julius Caesar."

"Wait!" Captain Charles said with a frown, "Didn't the dock manager tell you that I have no plans to go to sea anytime soon?"

Xue Di said coldly: "The dock manager did tell me, but a person's decision can be changed."

Captain Charles sneered, "To tell you the truth, I encountered pirates at sea and came back by luck. I am now in a bad period. When a captain is unlucky, he will ruin the whole ship! You rent my ship Aren't you afraid of bad luck when you go out to sea?"

Xuedi said coldly: "You met pirates, and the pirates let you go. You are not unlucky, but lucky. After all, you survived. Very few captains can survive after a pirate attack, right?"

Captain Charles was startled, scratched his head and said, "...So, I'm lucky?"

"That's right." Xuedi said coldly, "But if you meet me and don't do what I ask, you will be in bad luck."
