Chapter 112: Lack of people

The next day, a large sail-powered ship was slowly heading towards the port of Velen in the south.

On the ship, Kemp and his men were happily chatting with the crew on the deck.

Some soldiers were so bored that they took out their fishing rods and sat on the edge of the boat to fish.

And some people were leisurely drinking wine and playing cards.

…

As for Embiid, because his family did not leave with the earliest family ship, but waited for his return at the port, they boarded the rear troop transport together.

At this time, the family was having a reunion in the cabin.

Originally this was a very beautiful thing, but because his second daughter was so seasick, he still couldn't relax and was taking care of his daughter in the cabin.

At this time, Kemp opened the door and came in, greeted his niece briefly, then winked at Embiid and left first.

Embiid knew that Kemp had something to say, and although he was reluctant, he could only leave his daughter to the care of his wife.

The two came to a remote corner of the ship. Kemp looked around to make sure there was no one there, and then said: "We were deceived by that sword master!"

Embiid had been absent-minded. Hearing this, he raised his forehead, wrinkled the word "three", and glanced at Kemp: "What do you mean?"

"I asked those crew members." Kemp said angrily: "They can't get 100 gold a year at all. One-fifth of this amount is considered good."

"That's it?" Embiid laughed when he heard it: "If it's just that, just get angry slowly! I have other things to do, so I won't talk anymore."

Kemp grabbed Embiid's hand and said anxiously: "What do you mean 'just this'? Why did we run out? What's your attitude?"

Embiid patted Kemp's hand gently, then sighed and said: "Kemp, just tell me about the salary. Don't complain to others.

And don't show any dissatisfaction in front of the Lawson family. Got it? "

"You know what you're talking about?" Kemp's eyes widened, and he was about to burst out with anger: "It's about the life of the whole family and the survival of my subordinates. You tell me to swallow my anger?"

"Alas!" Embiid sighed heavily and put a hand on Kemp's shoulder: "You don't seem to understand our situation.

Although we are safe now, we are actually homeless and have offended everyone in the world.

At this time, except for the Lawson family, no one in the world will be willing to accept us.

In other words, our life and death are all in other people's hands.

Once you show any dissatisfaction.

Believe me, the butcher's knife will fall soon.

No one will believe defectors. In the eyes of big people, this kind of thing only happens zero to countless times.

If you still want to live well and want your family to live well, don't act out of emotion.

Whatever treatment they give us, we will kneel down obediently and give thanks.

If you want something better, show your loyalty and perform well.

Instead of doing nothing, just trying to negotiate terms!

You have to understand that even if the sword master lied to us, he did not promise us anything at that time.

He just said that the lowest sailor could get 100 gold, didn't he?

As for high salary, that is all based on our own imagination.

And our willingness to take risks and leave our original location is not entirely due to being deceived by the other party's rhetoric, but more due to other reasons, isn't it? "

When Kemp heard this, he was immediately discouraged and froze on the spot, unable to speak for a long time.

Embiid patted Kemp on the shoulder again: "Kemp, along the way, whether it is the arrangement of the team, the supporting knights, the spectacular port, or the behemoth underfoot.

Of course, there is also the magic pet and the unfathomable magician.

The Lawson family has shown us its unparalleled strength.

We have every reason to believe that we will get better development here.

The premise is that we have to show our true ability.

So, comfort your men, don't complain, don't make trouble, okay? "

After Kemp heard this, he felt completely depressed. He turned his head and stared at the blue sea water, not knowing what to think.

…

At this time, Ethan and Angelina were taking a bath in the hot springs at the Big Tree Secret Sanctuary in the Northland.

Angelina was naked, pressed tightly against Ethan, and happily said in Ethan's ear: "Guess how much money we made recently?"

"I don't know!" Ethan smiled: "Just tell me."

"Almost more than 600 gold." Angelina looked proud: "It's only been about 20 days! If it takes a year, well... I'll do the math, it's just..."

"About 10,000 gold!" Ethan helped Angelina calculate it.

"That's right!" Angelina kissed Ethan and said, "It's such a big sum of money. Lili and I get a headache every day from counting the money.

However, it is a pity that the money seems to be of no use here. "

"Haha!" Ethan couldn't help laughing when he saw Angelina having nowhere to spend money, but how could the money be useless?

After thinking about it, he said to Angelina: "You should keep all this money as your own money!

Ask Andy to convert all future income into money orders and pay them once a week.

Then through the Chamber of Commerce, it will be transferred to the account that the family handles for us. We need to transfer all the money to the rear.

Remember, we only need bills of exchange measured in gold coins of the Duke of the North, not imperial gold coins. "

"Okay!" Angelina said with a smile: "But Ethan, since you want to transfer the money to the rear, why not use the imperial bill directly?

If you use the bill of exchange from the North, you have to exchange it for the gold coins of the Empire before you can use it. Isn't it very troublesome?"

"It's not a big deal!" Ethan explained: "Your sister told me that the gold coins issued by the Duke of the North have a gold content 7% higher than those issued by the Empire, but the purchasing power is the same.

If we use the bill of exchange from the North, those chambers of commerce are very happy to accept it.

Anyway, they are the ones who deliver the goods, even if they have to deduct a 4% handling fee because they need to be re-smelted.

We can still appreciate by 3 %, no matter how you look at it, it's a profit. "

"Ah!" Angelina was shocked: "We didn't do anything, and the value increased by 3% in the end? Is the Eagle Duke a fool?"

"Haha!" Ethan laughed: "He is not stupid, he has his reasons for doing so.

You don't have to worry about these.

However, you may need to pay attention to the exchange rate ratio given by the Chamber of Commerce. They have a special agency that will test the gold content of the Northland gold coins.

Once the Chamber of Commerce reduces the exchange rate ratio to around 0, we will ask Andy to pay the Imperial bill instead of the Northland bill. "

"It feels so troublesome!" Angelina heard Ethan say professional terms, she had a headache.

"It's so troublesome to make money in this world, and it's all man-made troubles." Ethan stroked Angelina's little face and continued: "You have to work hard recently.

Later, I will find a special financial officer to take care of everything, okay? "
