Chapter 755: Quite wealthy

...

At the foot of the hill, a beautiful woman with long, smooth, dark blue wavy hair was standing quietly looking at the two people talking on the hillside.

"Hey! Ain, what are you still doing here?"

A man with long arms, dressed in strange clothes and looking like a ninja, walked over.

"Didn't I ask you to come and inform Mr. Zefa that we can set off? I've been waiting for quite some time, why are you still..."

"Shh~! You're being too noisy Binz!"

Ian made a silencing gesture.

"What, what's wrong?"

Binz thought he had encountered some kind of situation, so he immediately looked around vigilantly and put his palms to his ears to increase the reception range.

"Hahahaha!"

After waiting for a long time, I could only hear Zefa's hearty laughter echoing in the sea breeze.

"What is Mr. Zefa doing today?"

Binz asked doubtfully.

"The teacher was having a great conversation with General Bailong. I have never seen Mr. Zefa smile so happily in many years, no, I should say I have never seen him smile so happily, so I didn't want to disturb their conversation."

The corners of Ain's mouth rose slightly, revealing a sweet smile.

"Yeah, it's been a while since I heard Mr. Zephyr laugh so happily! It seems that leaving the navy was the right decision for us!"

"Let them chat for a while. I'll go and let everyone on the boat rest for a while. We're not in a hurry to set sail anyway."

After Binz finished speaking, he turned and ran towards the warship on the shore.

...

"Hahahaha! So, I can only talk to you. If it were the other guys, I'm afraid they would have started fighting right now!"

Zefa was enjoying himself very much. He tilted his head back and drank the liquor in the bottle in one gulp.

"Ah! Not bad, not bad, really good wine! But if I want to drink such good wine again in the future, I'm afraid I can only try my luck on a pirate ship!"

"Don't bother. Just contact me when you want to drink it. Give me the address and I'll arrange for someone to deliver it to you right away."

Ajin said with a smile.

"Hahaha? Forget it. Once the World Government finds out what I did, they might classify us as pirates or the Revolutionary Army and issue a bounty. Then we'll be enemies. If you, the future Admiral of the Navy, send me some wine, wouldn't that be a crime of treason?"

Zefa waved his hand.

"It's okay. I'll tell them that it was just a bait I put out to find the enemy's location."

"Stinky boy!"

Ajin made up an excuse and made Zefa laugh again.

"Hahaha, well said. If one day in the future we really become enemies, you must not show mercy!"

"But seeing you are so eloquent, I am relieved. Otherwise, you would be at a disadvantage if you were to take the position of Admiral at such a young age and talk to those old men who have lived for hundreds of years."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zefa, I know what to do."

There is a strong sense of confidence on Ajin's young face.

"That's good!"

"... "

Finally, when the two had finished talking, Ain stepped forward, bowed, and spoke softly.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, General Jin. Teacher Zefa has everything ready and can leave at any time."

"Okay! Thank you for your hard work, Ain. By the way, how about you reconsider it?"

"In fact, you don't have to leave with me. You will have a better future if you stay here, and you don't have to live a wandering life on the sea."

Ain shook his head when he heard this, and said in a firm tone.

"Teacher Zefa, please stop saying such things. Binz and I have already made up our minds to follow you out to sea."

"I see. Let's go and prepare to sail!"

Zefa stopped persuading him and just turned to look at Ajin and spoke seriously.

"The fools on this ship are all sailors who left under my coercion."

"Teacher Zefa! That's not it..."

Upon hearing this, Ian hurriedly tried to explain but was interrupted by Zefa who raised his hand.

"Jin, you know that they are all good marines with a sense of justice. They are also your junior brothers and sisters. So if I fail one day, you have to take care of them for me."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zefa, as long as I'm still in the navy, they can come back anytime."

Ajin nodded and said.

"Hahahaha, great! I feel relieved with your words."

Zefa stood up, patted Ajin's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Alright, I'm already very pleased that you came to see me off without any hesitation. After seeing you off for a thousand miles, there will always be a farewell. I have to leave too. Let's meet on the sea next time!"

"Okay, Mr. Zefa, remember to take care of yourself."

Ajin took out a small black and gold card from his pocket and handed it to Zefa.

"What are you doing?"

Zefa retracted his hand and did not take it.

"I'm sorry, we just went through a war and are running short of weapons and equipment. I can't use my position to help you get some warships and weapons. Take this Global Bank card. I have some Baileys in it. When the time comes, you can buy whatever you need."

"Take it back quickly. How much money do you have? Your salary and the bonus for killing pirates are all earned with your life! How can I take it? When we go out to sea, we will ask the pirates for any supplies we need. You can keep it for your family. You are not a child anymore and you should consider it."

Zefa waved his hand and refused.

"Teacher Zefa, please don't argue with me about this. The importance of money is far beyond your imagination. Without money, many things cannot be carried out. With such unstable income from killing pirates, when will your new navy be able to scale up?"

"Of course I know how important Bailey is."

"That's fine. They are willing to follow you and leave the navy to suffer. Do you really want them to suffer? How can you enforce justice if they can't even have enough to eat?"

As Ajin said this, he turned around and stuffed the bank card directly into the hand of Ain who was standing beside him.

"General Jin?"

"He is too proud to admit it. Ain, you keep it for Mr. Zefa. The password is eight eights."

"The money in it isn't much, but it should be enough for you to get through the most difficult initial stage."

Ajin said calmly.

"Enough to get through the initial stage? You don't have billions of Baileys in here, do you?"

Zefa pondered over this sentence and asked with a frown.

Ajin didn't say anything, but the expression on his face said it all, Zefa's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Shouldn't you..."

"Don't let your imagination run wild, Mr. Zefa. My money is absolutely clean."

"Even if you are an admiral, how much do you earn in the navy? Even if you don't eat or drink, you may not be able to save billions of berries, right? What's more, I heard that you are very generous on weekdays, often giving benefits to your soldiers, and even paying out of your own pocket to compensate the casualties."

Ajin scratched his head and didn't know how to explain.

"Cough cough."

Ajin said with an awkward smile.

"Couldn't it be possible that my family is already wealthy? With quite a bit of savings?"

"Bullshit, you are an orphan, where did you get your wealth?"

"That's right, no, why are you still swearing, Mr. Zefa?"

"I am telling the truth. How did you get billions of Baileys? Did you embezzle or take bribes? Did you steal without paying the salary? Or did you extort the people's money? Tell me the truth now."

Zefa continued to ask.
