Chapter 169 Maritime Products and Trophies

A month later, the crew on the Cold Raven were almost high on land, spending a lot of gold coins in their pockets, and even more so, they were already in debt when they returned.

Zhang Heng doesn't know how that guy did it. At least 40 gold coins were divided among everyone who went out last time. This money is enough for ordinary people to live a good life for two or three years, but on the good side, these guys are now hungry again and miss the smell of the sea.

And it happened that Karina brought back some valuable intelligence this time, so the Cold Raven sailed again after a period of finishing and manning.

At the same time, women businessmen and black gladiators who remained in Nassau acted.

Karina had launched an offensive step by step before the Black Business Coalition, who had rented a warehouse at the pier and then sent a message to the island's small and medium-sized pirates, expressing her willingness to buy the loot they had received while sailing at a more favourable price than the Black Business Coalition.

The news is still a source of concern on the island, and although Karina is a woman and has just arrived on the island, she is beginning to be known to more people as a partner thanks to Cold Crow's last dream first voyage.

Especially among small and medium-sized pirates, we all know that there are other channels outside the black merchants' league that can fight loot. For this group of people, the black merchants' league is not as polite as those with strength, because they themselves can't grab anything of value, so the purchase price given is very low.

And there was no agreement between the two sides. Karina chose them as her target, but the captain of the Breeze, Marlon, looked at the long line in front of the warehouse and was a little crying.

Most of these guys are dressed in shabby pieces, and the weapons are very diverse. Although they all call themselves pirates, they look more like beggars and gangsters to Marlon.

Imagine what kind of trophies these guys can offer.

An old pirate trembled to the table, and Marlon even suspected that he was older than his great-grandfather, who had been in the ground for years.

The old pirate put a basket of crabs on the table in the bewildered gaze of the bookkeeper.

The latter had to refer to the sign on the back that said second-hand goods trading and said politely, "Sorry, sir, we don't take seafood. ”

“Watch your mouth, kid. I was in Nassau when I was your age, but nobody knew. Even Henry Morgan was welcome to see me. This is a trophy I grabbed on this voyage.” The old pirate warned.

“But… this does not change the fact that they are seafood, sir.” Young bookkeepers are straight forward.

Marlon knew the young man, whose name was Jim. He personally recruited on the boat last year. It was not easy to find someone who could do arithmetic literacy these days, and the latter has been dedicated. The news of Mr. Figan's accident came out some time ago, and the crew on the Breeze ran half way. What Marlon didn't expect was that Jim, the best job seeker, stayed instead.

The first thing Marlon did after making money this time was get Carina to raise this South Carolina guy's wages, but at this point he leaned in front of the warehouse and watched the latter struggle to explain to each other the difference between seafood and trophies could not help either.

“I took it from the fishermen, so it was a trophy, and your boss said you bought it, and this is my trophy.” Old pirates staring, shouting, “is there a problem?! ”

Jim had sweat on his forehead, "I think there might be some misunderstanding, sir. ”

The woman merchant beside him couldn't keep watching. The other pirates after the team showed impatience and said to the bookkeeper, "Give him five copper sobbies, we've taken this stuff, let the next person come quickly. ”

Jim's sniffing face also revealed a relaxed look, sending away a vampire with a grumbling, disgruntled old pirate, and the next pirate to come pulled two glass balls out of his pocket.

“This is a total disaster.” Marlon muttered to himself, and then he said to Karina, who walked over and gasped, "Do you know which colonial port we dragged these things to, they wouldn't sell? Didn't we just talk about this when you got to Nassau? We didn't make any money from these guys. I thought we had a consensus. Why are you now spending your energy on these guys?

The captain of the transport sighed, and said, "With all due respect, I think what we're doing right now is just a waste of time. With this money, it's better to have a poor kid like Jim who works so hard, having fun at the Buddhist Home on the island. Look at him, I bet he's still a baby. ”

“Thanks for the reminder. I know how to tell if the cargo is worth anything, Captain Marlon.” The businesswoman said, "If you can find the second Cold Crow on the island and we'll work together, I'd be happy to get rid of all those guys over there. If you can't, keep your mouth shut. If you're really bored, go to the Buddhist Garden and find a woman to fuck you, or come and help. ”

“I still prefer the former.” Marlon put his hands in his chest and was ready to slip away, but he took a few steps and stopped again, "was it my hearing problem or did you really say the three words" fuck yourself "? ”

“Is there a problem?” Karina asked backwards.

“I just remembered the first time Mr. Figan took you aboard the Breeze. How old were you, eight or nine? Dressed like a porcelain doll, you carry your own dress and keep it off the deck of the boat, as if it were dirty, frowning the whole way, just trying to get it over with, I can't imagine that little lady going to be what she is today, and you really did it, Miss Karina, starting to get into this place, and faster than anyone thought, and your father would be proud of you.” Marlon was emotional.

“It's early, it's not easy to survive in this place. Especially since our opponent is still a huge one, I have to hang my brains out to get a chance to catch a breath. ”

The businesswoman paused, "But thank you, Uncle Marlon, for not leaving our house even after what happened. ”

Marlon waved, “When I was most depressed, Mr. Figan gave me this job, I won't forget this grace, but now, I don't want to waste my energy on meaningless things, so I went to the Buddhist Garden to do it myself. ”
