48 Hours a Day

Sam, the black prince, as rumoured, did not empty the cargo on the Goddess Spear for the sailors on the ship in distress, but only halved the artillery above, confirmed that the latter was incapable of fighting back, then moved some wood to repair the Veda, and let people go.

But those sailors didn't thank him for it, and they lived so long at sea that they had nothing to gain. Hate and anger were hidden in their eyes when they looked at the pirates.

Sam looked like he didn't care. He said to Zhang Heng, "We are bandits. It's normal for people to hate us. I didn't expect them to thank me for letting them go, just because I didn't want to do it myself. If any of them later became pirate hunters, I would also welcome them to hunt me down. Life is too short, stay happy and most importantly, there is no need to always worry about what happened later. ”

Zhang Heng didn't think that Black Prince Sam was much older than him, but he was so popular. Perhaps that's why others liked him so much. Zhang Heng initially maintained some caution against the gang of thieves because of the black merchants, but when he came into contact with Sam, he found that the latter was indeed a very worthy friend.

Especially in a brutally cold-blooded pirate world, it is a miracle that he can maintain this character.

However, Zhang Heng was still a little strange. Before on the Veda, Sam, the black prince, showed a friendly attitude towards him that clearly went beyond the scope of the first meeting, so he took the opportunity to ask the question he had always wanted to ask, "Have we met before? ”

“Oh, you said this," Sam the Black Prince laughed, "You and the red-haired Miss Annie did me a favor, although you didn't know that you guys had been commissioned by Fraser to catch a thief before, and finally killed him, and I've been looking for him for a while. ”

“Hmm?”

“I had a friend who wasn't on my boat, but he was a good friend, he was working on another boat, he had just been on the helm, he was happy that day, so he had a few more drinks, but when he left the tavern he found his wallet missing, it was filled with the pearls he'd just switched, his money for the pearls was a public asset on the boat, and the crew entrusted him with a more portable storage, and the next morning, people found his body by the reef beach. ”

Sam also flashed a sad color in his eyes when he said, "The man you killed, he's a recidivist, and he likes to do things like pearls, usually wandering around the pearl merchant's house, looking for tail prey, but I also learned later that my friend was a very brainless man, and he couldn't think of any other way to prove that he hadn't eaten those pearls, so he ended up using the dumbest method. ”

Black Prince Sam shook his head, "I don't hate the guy who stole his pearls because it was his way of life, just like us, but I also wanted to avenge my friend, but it was just my own personal vendetta, and I didn't use the power of the Pirates, and the guy slipped more than I thought, and I couldn't do much energy on land because I went out to sea, and then I came back and I heard that he was dead. ”

“Fraser told me your names only recently, and anyway, it's over now, and my friends can rest in peace.” Black Prince Sam Dao.

Zhang Heng also finally figured out the causes and consequences of all this.

In order to prevent Hutchison from coming back to trouble, he offered to have the Raven accompany the Veda back to Nassau, and Sam, the black prince, naturally wouldn't refuse, as the relationship between the two was close.

On his return journey, the latter often came to Zhang Hengchat on a small boat. Zhang Hengdun knew from him a lot of secrets only the captain knew.

The day they talked about the distribution of power on the island, Black Prince Sam picked his eyebrows and seemed surprised, "Would you like to join the island's council? ”

Zhang Heng nodded, it was about his main task. He had no boat before and was not famous enough on the island, so he didn't think much about it. Now the Cold Raven and his name have spread throughout Nassau. Although much of this is due to contradictions with the Black Business Alliance, many times the crisis coexisted with opportunities. Now he withstood the pressure and led Cold Raven through the initial troubles and became more famous. So joining Parliament can also be put on the agenda.

“Actually, that parliament is of little use," Black Prince Sam scratched his head, "which is an organization where everyone works together to maintain order, but has not actually held several meetings since its inception. Nassau is a homeless land, no one on the island likes to be in charge, the landowners don't care about anything other than their own land, the pirates have the way the pirates handle things, as for the black market businessmen, they seem to have their own set of rules of procedure, and they won't be able to resolve their conflicts through the parliament once the Black Business Coalition is established. ”

“The last time you were sitting together was two years ago, because someone got word that the Spaniards were going to attack this place for a while, but then it got a little nervous, and since then there have been fewer people who wanted to join, mainly when they first went to the council to swear, that it was to defend Nassau and other things, before everyone took it seriously, and now it is discovered that there is a real possibility of a war, that joining the council has no real benefit other than a name, and fewer people are interested.” Black Prince Sam shrugged.

“What are the conditions for membership in Parliament? ”

“There are no hard demands, generally as long as they have the strength and prestige to contribute to the island, the only threshold is the need for a joint election of more than seven members of the council," Black Prince Sam said, "Buddhist owner Clay, because the girls under his command serve well and make an indelible contribution to the stability of the island, said to be the first to be elected to the council, why, are you really interested? The seven co-sponsors I can help you with, in return for helping me kill Jacob before. ”

“Then trouble Captain Sam.” Zhang Hengdao.

Black Prince Sam did not take this small matter seriously. He was very interested in the battle of Queen Anne's Revenge shelling of Charleston and was trying to learn a little more from Zhang Heng's relative, but the light outside the starboard window suddenly darkened.

Together, they looked up and saw a cloud of clouds over their heads.

“Has the weather changed so quickly?” Black Prince Sam touched his nose, "it was fine before, and the damn weather was so much better than a woman's. ”
