48 Hours a Day

The atmosphere on the deck was a little weird, and the imaginary scene of argument did not appear when Olf showed up.

Orph was really like an old man, pushed one step backwards by the fierce gunfire of black gunmen, and he fell off a cliff.

Though Goodwin has always felt comfortable with his winning tickets, it was unexpected that things were going so smoothly that it created a sense of unease in his mind.

Olf looked around again at the people around him and said, "Yes, you have reason to be unhappy. It's been a tough day, for both of you and me, but what I'm saying is, from today on, these tough days are about to pass, and you ask me what I've been doing lately, and I think it's time I told you. ”

The uncertain hunch in the hands of black gunners grew stronger and stronger, and reason told him that Olf should not be allowed to go on, but now he could not find a reason to interrupt each other. The statement before the vote was free for everyone, and it was impossible for him alone to criticize Olf unilaterally without allowing the latter to justify himself. So Goodwin could only comfort himself that the big picture had been settled, and that he had fought for all of them individually, many of whom exchanged interests with him, and that such an alliance should be stable.

The attention of the Wolf to all of you is now attracted, and this is the satisfying opening, “I've known most of you for a long time, and you should know what I am, and I've never hidden anything from you in my past, and yes, before I came to the Sea Lion, I used to sail with Kid, the greatest captain in the Caribbean, until he was arrested, hanged in London, and those guys copied his home, but only found a small amount of gold and silver.

“I know you've heard rumors that he's hidden everything he's looted all these years in a secret place, and now I can tell you that it's true. ”

The story of Kidd, the most powerful pirate in the entire Caribbean Sea between 1695 and 1699, had fifty artillery guns on the Quetta Merchant, powerful firepower that even frightened many colonial seaports, and legend had accumulated remarkable wealth in just five years.

And after his death, the whereabouts of these riches were unknown, as was his Merchant Quettav.

“I have also been investigating the whereabouts of the treasure since Kid's death, and now I have a clue that we have reason to believe that we are close to it. ”

Olf had to wait until the buzz of people turning to hear him continued, "Forgive me for keeping this from you before, not because I didn't believe you, but because I feared that the news would be heard by other pirates, but now I have to confess to you. ”

Olf finally glanced at Goodwin, whose back had been soaked with sweat and pale, and just three minutes earlier he thought he was ready, but he still didn't expect to be turned over in such a completely irrational way that he knew, as a pirate, how seductive Kid's treasure was.

Even at a certain moment, he couldn't help it. And the others, his allies, how many more are willing to stand beside him now, risking losing a large share of the treasure at hand to dismiss Olf.

He plotted for such a long time to be a good man, shrugged warmth at the new arrivals, endured the strange conditions and preferences of other allies, and now all this has lost its meaning, and Olf is unwilling, just like the drowning man desperately wants to grab the last straw, and he says, “Vote, vote... I haven't lost. ”

However, Olf's last words completely shattered his remaining hope, “Now, who wants to sail with me in pursuit of the legendary treasure?! ”

After a few seconds of silence, the pirates burst out cheering, shouting together, "Treasure! Treasure!! Treasure!!!” At this moment, everyone's face is full of fanaticism, and no one takes a look at the black gunner who's lost his soul on the other side. At this moment, Goodwin feels abandoned by the whole world.

…………

“The results are here!” Malvin rushed down from the deck the first time, to Zhang Hengdao, who was doing push-ups in the cabin, "the result came out, and Goodwin was holding the ticket, but Mr. Olf used only a few words to completely reverse the situation, you didn't see Goodwin's last face, I was a little worried about him. ”

The farmer's son paused and excited, “And we're going to be rich this time! You know the guy named Kid, the big pirate, I heard when he was hanged, half the city in London went out to watch, and now we're going to look for the treasure he left behind! ”

Marvin looked around and lowered his voice, “After being tied up by the pirates, to be honest, I feel like I'm getting old every day, but now I'm starting to think that maybe it's not a bad thing, it's fate that set us up to board this ship. ”

“Huh.”

The son of the farmer opened his eyes and said, "What do you mean? Think about it. Aren't you excited about the treasure left by the Great Pirate King? Previously on the deck, I was thinking about how to spend it when I got the money. I'm going to buy two plantations in Boston, buy a bunch of black slaves, and then I'm going to take out all the rest of the money and spend it on the booze. You know, that woman named Daisy in the buffet always looks down on me, even when I serve her, I don't care, and when I get the money...”

“Marvin," Zhang Heng finished his last push-up, got up and wiped the sweat off his neck, interrupted the farmer's son's dream, "you haven't seen the treasure yet, it's not too late to wait until you see what you want to do. ”

“Sorry," the farmer's son also realized that he had lost his temper, mainly because the atmosphere on the deck was too hot. Everyone was inspired by the four words of Kid's treasure and his spirit was in a state of exhilaration.

This also gave Zhang Heng a hint of vigilance in his heart. Although he did not support Goodwin, it did not mean that he felt that the latter's concerns were unreasonable. The helmsman was indeed too close to the captain, which was not a good thing for the rest of the ship, especially this time he also saw how an experienced helmsman manipulated the mood of the crew.

A powerful captain, coupled with an old-fashioned rudder, has much more control over the ship than many would imagine.

Compared to them, Goodwin was like a dental toddler, with neither side at all on a scale, and his ending had been doomed from the moment Goodwin decided to challenge Olf.
