They don't want me to work harder

Page 118

Boom!

Suddenly, a blind middle-aged man with a long beard smashed his wine glass, interrupting the guests' chat.

He scanned the audience and said with a smile: "So what about the Easter champion? In the sea, we, the men of the sea, have the final say!"

"Who is your Excellency?"

"I am the first mate of the Black Shark Pirates."

The man raised his glass and said: "Our captain has a big business to do in Connaught recently, and he is still short of manpower. The reward can be paid in gold coins! If you are interested, you can come to me at any time before dark... Connaught He’s a special prince or something, let’s show him some color right now!”

OK, are all pirates so arrogant?

Are you openly recruiting people and mocking me?

Richard curled his lips and motioned to White next to him:

"Come on, let's pretend to be applying for a job as sailors and get on the ship to see how they plan to impress me~"

Chapter 1: Not good, it’s going to turn into bread!

"What is your name?"

"Charlie."

"What can you do?"

"sailor."

"Is there a guarantee?"

"Big guy over there."

Richard used the characteristics of [Newspaper Tycoon] and casually pointed at a ferocious pirate.

"Oh... come on board."

Huh?

Although I did use the feature... but you ended it like this?

Why don't you continue to ask me how many cows there are in how many acres of land I have?

After dressing up as a sailor, Richard was shocked by the pirates' casualness.

But then I thought about it, it was unrealistic to expect a small third-tier pirate group to be disciplined and disciplined.

So half an hour after leaving the tavern, he, White and Katyusha successfully boarded the medium-sized sailboat of the Black Shark Pirate Group.

Richard looked around.

Counting around on the ship, there were probably only a few dozen pirates. Most of them seemed to be black iron, a few were bronze, and there was one guy who had barely entered the first stage of silver...

Oh, it's a man wearing a captain's hat and carrying six muskets on his waist. He must be the captain, right?

He was waving a chart and excitedly talking to his men: "Don't be afraid of that prince, that kind of person doesn't understand the sea at all! This is our territory, we must have confidence and ideals! We can grab it next week To the hills of gold..."

...Well, he looks almost 50 or [-] years old, but he is still very enthusiastic.

After a while, the ship sailed.

Richard called his companions, gathered them in the corner of the deck, and whispered:

"The opponent is not too strong. Once it is far enough away from the port, we will take control of the ship and find out their purpose and information channels..."

"Hey, you guys!"

Suddenly, a tall, brown-skinned bald man interrupted Richard, with a hint of malicious intent in his eyes: "New here? Why don't you go to work?"

"Sorry, we'll go right away..."

White, who was more familiar with life at sea, took over.

However, the bald man waved his hand, showing two rows of rotten teeth and said, "Don't worry yet."

"I am the boatswain of this ship, and your work is assigned by me. So, do you want to go down to the cabin to move the cannonballs, or wipe the deck..."

As he spoke, he stretched out one hand and rubbed three fingers.

Well, it costs money.

Richard rolled his eyes, wondering if you would be willing to board your ship after your reputation spreads.

But now that the ship has left the port, most people really can't resist.

In addition, Richard thought to himself that it was probably because he was too inconspicuous when applying makeup, which made the three of them look like mediocre and honest little sailors, so they were bullied...

Seeing that Richard and others were silent, Baldhead emphasized:

"Don't you understand what I mean? If you don't pay, you will be thrown to wipe the deck..."

"Yeah! I love wiping the deck!"

Before White could answer, Richard grabbed the conversation and pretended to be cheerful and cheerful: "Where is the mop? Where is the bucket? Please give it to me quickly! If you don't let me do this, I will follow You are in a hurry!"

The bald bosun was shocked, and it took him a long time to say: "You...don't you know what deck wiping is?"

"I know~"

"You just want to be tired?"

"Ah yes yes yes~"

"What a joke!"

"Oh, why are you so anxious?"

boom!

The bald bosun bared his teeth, then threw a few brushes and a basin, and said fiercely: "Okay, then you can do it, I will keep an eye on you! If you don't clean up before sunset... Haha!"

After everyone left, White asked quietly: "Your Highness, are we okay with this?"

"It's not a big problem."

Richard put away his smile, looked at the port farther and farther away, and said lightly: "He will not survive the sunset."

...compared to previous months, darkness comes faster.

An hour after the ship left port, only half of the sun was still on the sea.

Richard held the brush slowly and leaned on the deck to watch the sunset.

The bald bosun came over with a sneer: "Are you lazy? I knew you were lying just now! Oh, wait for the whip!"

Richard looked lazily, but he signaled to White and Katyusha, and then quietly summoned the Thorn of Dark Light under his clothes, preparing to attack...

Boom!

Suddenly a cannon shot shook everyone on the ship.

The bald bosun turned his head and looked towards the stern of the ship with the others, only to hear the lookout above his head shouting:

"Pearl Buck! I saw the Pearl Buck! It's that crazy woman Veronica!"

"Damn it, why did they come to our door? We have never made enemies before!"

"Are you going to take advantage of others?"

"What should I do? It's over, it's over..."

boom!

"quiet!"

Just when all the crew members were panicking, the captain fired a shot and walked onto the bow.

He held the helm, glanced at the faces of everyone on the deck, showed a few gold teeth, and said loudly: "Young men, don't scare yourself before the enemy comes to the door!"

"I've seen that bitch Veronica. Her strength is pretty good, but it's nothing more than that! I'm not afraid of her!"

"Our ship is about the same size as Pearl Buck, but has more cannons. We may not lose the naval battle, so cheer up and fight to the end!"

"As long as we can destroy the ship, we will win this battle! By then, the treasures and beauties will be so numerous that my hands will cramp! Do you agree?"

Seeing that the captain was so confident, the other pirates gradually cheered up and shouted in agreement: "Okay, Captain!" "Let's kill them all!" "I want to capture Veronica and try something new!"

"Haha, you little ones, please obey my orders..."

Boom!

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow fell from the sky and hit the captain hard.

"Grum!"

With a roar, the smoke cleared, and the rest of the crew saw a giant who was at least three meters tall and covered in spiked armor crawling up from the large hole in the deck, holding a tattered corpse in his hand.

Well, it was the original captain.

At the same time, conversations between several mages came from the sky:

"Look at the way the Black Shark pirates just looked like they want to fight us to the end? This is really troublesome..."

"Trouble is trouble, but it's very courageous, isn't it? I quite like it. Doesn't the captain also like torture like this?"

On the deck, the pirates fell into silence for a moment. After a few seconds...

"I surrender!"

"We were farting just now, please forgive us!"

"Captain Veronica is the greatest! Please let us join the Pearl Buck!"

Richard held his forehead.

Ah, really...

Are you all French pirates?

The baguette is tougher than you!
