48 Hours a Day

Chapter 147: Starting

It was a lovely day for the Cold Raven to leave port.

The sky is clear with no clouds, the sea breeze is brisk, and the gulls circle at the top of the mast.

There are still a lot of people watching the harbour, which is rare for a new pirate group.

Zhang Heng also heard about what had happened on the island over the past few days, and it was said that there were also a number of casinos that had set up casinos dedicated to his first voyage with the Cold Raven, betting on how many loot he had been able to grab for the first time out of the sea, with the lowest odds of getting nothing, which also meant that the vast majority of people didn't like his first show.

After all, the ship's performance and firepower are not representative of everything. A good captain can win a headwind war, and a newcomer like Zhang Heng has a good chance of burying a great situation.

Billy was the earliest on the day, as the helmsman on the Cold Raven, and he had arranged for everyone's work to be ready before he left the sea.

Zhang Heng was the last to arrive as a captain, and he was still with Annie.

Seeing a lot of people blow their whistles at the pier, if it wasn't for the little punch Annie made on the Golden Swallow, Nassau had never seen a woman become a pirate before, let alone hold such an important position as sailor, so today could be a historic moment.

However, given that they are now living in a house, it is intriguing to think in some direction.

So when Zhang Heng and Annie appeared together, the surrounding area suddenly sounded another obscene language, people were just such a creature. In fact, many people on the island had suffered losses from red-haired girls, knowing that she was very strong, but because of some kind of dark psychology, people were still more willing to believe that she had sold out her flesh in exchange for this sailor's position, so people expected anything to happen when she got aboard.

James stood red-eyed in the crowd, angry and jealous, he was the first to come into contact with Annie, who was a wealthy lady who lived with her mother and had an unrealistic pirate dream. He was the one who encouraged Annie to escape from home and come to Nassau with him. Of course, he knew what the real situation was like here. When Annie had spent all her money, she was left to marry him after constantly running into the wall.

He coveted the red-haired girl for a long time, not only because of the appearance of the other's body, but also because the father of the latter was quite rich. Although the father and daughter were now in the cold war, when the water reached them, Annie was pregnant and her father could not ignore her grandson or granddaughter.

The implementation of the first half of the plan was smooth. Although he almost lost his grandson after playing cards and Annie ran out of his place of residence, James remained confident, like most rebel teenagers, wherever he ran, he eventually had to bow his head to reality. When the red-haired girl with no pennies was hungry, she would surely return from the rain.

But he didn't expect another Zhang Heng along the way, not only to let Annie live in her own place, but also to solve her meals and daily expenses, and James didn't believe there would be such a good person on the island, there was only one possibility - the same thought he had fought for.

James couldn't help but be shocked and angry when he learned he had one more competitor. He wanted to confront Zhang Hengdang, but when he learned that the latter was from the Sea Lion, he spurned again. No one in Nassau knew the name of Blackbeard. Of course, touching his crew would have to consider his anger, which he could not bear.

After that, Jaime only dared to sneak up on Annie after Zhang Heng went out to sea, persuaded her to leave the house and go back to him, but the red-haired girl didn't seem to have any such thoughts, and several times later, Jaime obviously felt Annie's disgust for herself was getting stronger. In fact, if the two of them had not been company for some time before, they would have come to Nassau together, and the red-haired girl could have come sooner.

That afternoon, James stood up trembling for half an hour in the field, and although he was still alive, he knew he had little chance in the short term.

Now look at the two people walking together, James is also the most exciting person in the crowd, and unlike other people who see the noise, he even yells angrily, causing people around him to frequently look at each other.

“I warned you,” Zhang Heng said to Annie beside him, “when you walk with me, something like this will happen. ”

The red-haired girl didn't care, “What are you afraid of? If I dare to be your sailor, how can I care what others think? Besides, these guys only dare to take two cheap sentences in their mouths, none of which can be fought, and when we get home full of them, they will naturally shut up. ”

“Are you so confident in me? ”

“Because you have the strongest sailor on the island. ”

“ ………… ”

Billy and Diffrena were worried that Zhang Heng and Annie would be influenced by the guys on shore, but they knew how worried they were when they saw them.

When the anchor was put away and the sail was lifted, the Cold Crow left the port in a slow sea breeze, while Billy stood in the middle of the deck and looked at Zhang Heng on the bow.

The latter nodded, the helmsman of the Cold Raven clapped his hands and attracted the sailors' eyes. “I got word ashore that there was a Spanish merchant ship carrying a perfume on its way to New York, and we all knew how fast this thing was going to hit the New World. That's why we were willing to sail immediately. The boat is not far from us now, and if it goes smoothly, we can catch it in less than a week. If we can grab this shipment, we can each divide at least 100 silver coins, so let's work hard and take our first victory together! ”

The pirates scratched their hands and nothing moved them more than a fat prey, and the sailors on board were eager to get into battle immediately.

Billy was satisfied with the amount of morale he had shown on board, but he had travelled so many times, it was clear to him that every time he set sail, it was the most morale of a ship, and over time, boring sea life would soon become boring and morale would decline, especially when he could not find a goal for some time in a row, and anxiety would spread among the crew, which was the beginning of trouble.

Billy just wants the first flight of the Cold Raven to go smoothly.

Zhang Heng also returned to the captain's room after setting the course and took the necklace that Simon had given him out of the drawer.

[Name: Hunter's Blessings]
