Chapter 186 Shipwreck x Going out to sea
"Alas! Later, I rescued a sailor from a merchant ship, and learned that the merchant ship belonged to a small noble in the kingdom, and it was transporting goods worth tens of millions of berries. That merchant ship was the entire fortune of that small noble, and seeing that there was no hope of reviving the family, they simply gave up."
"After chasing and fighting for so long, I didn't get anything in the end. Do you think I'm at a loss?" Tiechui sighed heavily, looking very regretful.
If they succeeded in robbing that merchant ship, their pirate group could enjoy themselves for several months without having to sit in a cheap tavern and drink.
"Damn it!" Thinking of this, Tiechui couldn't help cursing in his heart: "Aren't nobles supposed to be a bunch of pigs? Don't they value their lives more? How come they are so courageous now?"
"Haha~, then you are really unlucky. The duck that was in your mouth flew away." The other captains gloated.
Their happiness is not fake, but genuine.
As colleagues, they don't want anyone to live better than themselves.
There is a saying that goes, I'm not afraid of my brothers suffering, I'm just afraid of my brothers driving a Land Rover.
Although they are not even friends, the same principle can be applied to them.
"But you are really brave. You actually go directly to the waterway to plunder." A pirate captain sighed.
"Yes! There are navy patrols on the waterway regularly, so you don't have to worry about being caught." Another pirate captain echoed.
"Heh~, the navy." Tiechui chuckled and said nonchalantly, "The waterway is so long, how could the navy patrol it all the time?"
"And even if the navy finds out, so what?"
"The worst that can happen is a fight." Tiechui replied arrogantly.
"That's true, but..." the third pirate captain hesitated.
Tiechui immediately interrupted him and said disdainfully: "If you want to get rich, don't be timid. We are pirates, how can we be afraid of the navy."
The captains looked at each other in bewilderment. Xia Jieren also sighed in his heart, "How arrogant! Short-sightedness really hurts people."
While everyone was thinking, Tiechui continued to teach his own success theory: "As long as you rob those weak merchant ships, there will be no danger."
"After they robbed the enemy, they ran away, making it impossible for the navy to catch up."
Then he changed the subject and said, "Moreover, hundreds of ships sink to the bottom of the sea every year on the waterway."
"As long as we act quickly enough, the Navy won't receive the distress message."
"I admire you! I admire you!" Whether it was false or something else, the other pirate captains all complimented Tiechui.
Hearing the compliments from everyone, Tiechui became even more proud.
He laughed heartily, picked up the bottle and gulped down the drink.
Even though the wine ran across the corners of his mouth and dripped onto his collar, he didn't care at all.
"Are there a large number of ships sinking on the waterway every year?" Xia Jieren touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This is really good news. Why didn't I notice it before."
"Gate, let's go." After saying that, Xia Jieren got up and left.
After leaving the Pirate Bar, Xia Jieren came to an alley and told Gate, "Go back to the palace."
In an instant, a gate of light appeared out of nowhere and Xia Jieren stepped in.
A few seconds later, Xia Jieren appeared in his bedroom.
Leaning casually on the sofa, Xia Jieren immersed his mind in the heart net.
Arriving at the empty Sky Palace, Xia Jieren called out softly, "Kerrigan."
The next second, Kerrigan's figure appeared in front of Xia Jieren.
He was in no mood to admire Kerrigan's graceful figure and exquisite appearance. He said impatiently, "Kerrigan, hatch another batch of Devourers and Sea Lords, and have them search for sunken ships on the seafloor along the main shipping lanes between the islands."
“I expect there will be quite a lot of gains.”
"As you command, Lord." Kerrigan bowed in response.
"I'm really looking forward to it." Xia Jieren looked expectant and eager to try.
He was eager to experience the fun of treasure hunting.
So he ordered again: "Kerrigan, make arrangements. I will go to the sea to look for treasure tomorrow."
"Can you please not go out~" Kerriganton pretended to be pitiful and advised.
Xia Jieren's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down and said firmly, "Don't worry, I'm only active within the coverage area of the heart network, and I'm protected by the navy, so nothing will happen."
Kerrigan hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed reluctantly: "Okay."
The next day, Xia Jieren got up in high spirits.
He was looking forward to this outing.
When he was on Blue Star, he was very much a homebody and rarely traveled far.
"I finally came to the world of pirates, I must take a good look at this world." Xia Jieren thought to himself.
Today, he plans to take a train to Eastbourne and enjoy the scenery along the way.
Just as he was walking out of the palace with Gate, Xia Jieren suddenly thought of something and turned back.
"I remember I seemed to have promised Litte that I would take her out to play when I had the chance." Thinking of this, Xia Jieren went straight to Litte's office.
I knocked on the door, but no one answered.
"Where is Queen Litte now?" Xia Jieren casually pulled a maid over and asked.
"Master Xia Jieren, Queen Litt is washing." The maid replied respectfully.
"Okay! Tell Queen Litte that I'm waiting for her in the office." Xia Jieren said.
"Yes!" the maid agreed, and then she hurried to report.
five minutes later.
Queen Litt and Butler Kiel walked into the office.
"Lord Jieren, what brings you here so early?" Litte asked curiously.
"Can't I come to see you if nothing happens?" Xia Jieren pretended to be unhappy.
Litt waved her hands and explained hastily: "No, of course not."
Seeing that Litte was a little embarrassed, Xia Jieren smiled slightly: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Then, Xia Jieren stated the purpose of his trip: "I plan to go out to sea to look for treasure, and I would like to ask if you want to go with me."
Litte was very excited, but also a little conflicted.
After thinking for a moment, Litt said, "I'll go!"
"Okay! Let's go then." Xia Jieren said.
While speaking, he looked at Butler Kil in confusion, "Why didn't Butler Kil object this time?"
"This shouldn't happen. According to the previous routine, he should have jumped out to object at this time."
After thinking about it for a while and not getting any results, Xia Jieren stopped worrying about it.
He opened the door, walked out of the office, and chatted with Litte as they walked.
Butler Kiel followed silently behind him.
When Xia Jieren proposed to take Queen Litte out with him, Butler Kil wanted to object immediately.
But he remembered that the current strength of the Kingdom of the Netherlands was enough to protect the safety of Queen Litte.
And since Litte looked expectant, he finally couldn't speak and chose to remain silent.
Soon, Xia Jieren brought Litte to the Royal Capital Station.
