Power and Wealth

The day has passed.

Two days have passed.

This morning, Dong Xuebin woke up, flipped out of bed and lit a cigarette, then stepped on his shoes and walked to the deck. He looked around. This side was still a deep sea area, and he could not see the mainland anymore. Apart from the sea, the surrounding area was obviously still far from his destination. By boat is no faster than by train, and no faster than by plane. Dong Xuebin already had this psychological preparation, he knew it was urgent.

“Dude.” Dong Xuebin called a crew member.

The crew put down what was in their hands and looked back at him, "What's wrong? ”

“Ask me something.” Dong Xuebin: “How far is it from the area of piracy? ”

The crew looked a little strange, "A boat was hijacked just the other day, so the captain let us go around a little bit, but now this should be a pirate area.” He extended his fingers to the west, "that's where the pirates are based. There's not even a political axe. We should be somewhere far away from the pirates now, but maybe we'll meet. Let's hope for blessings. ”

Dong Xuebin stunned, “This way? ”

The crew said, “That's it in the morning. Didn't you see the look on everyone's face? ”

Dong Xuebin glanced around. After all, the crew on several decks looked alert and said: “Do you know how many pirates there are? Faction too? ”

"I don't know exactly how many people, but there must be more than one chief. I hear there's a lot of them, and there's not a lot of competition over there. ”

“What wave of pirates robbed the ship the other day? ”

“I don't know about that. I haven't seen them either. If we saw them, we wouldn't be able to escape. The pirate boats are much faster than us. ”

“Well, thank you. ”

"I didn't mean you," said the crew. "You really shouldn't have come this time. ”

Dong Xuebin nodded, “Thanks for the reminder. ”

The crew also wanted to say a few words, but see Dong Xuebin's expression, still didn't say anything.

These days, all the crew have basically met Dong Xuebin. They also know that Dong Xuebin is here for tourism. It seems like he is experiencing life. Everyone listens to him and shakes his head. Although he admires Dong Xuebin's young man's courage, he still thinks that he is a little unknown. There are so many boats, so many routes. The chances of encountering pirates are not too great, but it is not absolute. If he does, he is likely to be killed by pirates. It is not too late to hide. No one would have thought that there would be such people as Dong Xuebin, but he is still travelling? Even a few of their sailors, if it weren't for the cold, would probably have quit. If they were wealthy, who would have risked their lives to run this route?

Privately, many members of the crew are also discussing Dong Xuebin.

“This young man is not afraid to die. ”

“I think he's a petite habit. Don't you know anything about it? ”

“But it's not bad to sail so many days without seasickness. ”

“Look at his little body. I don't know how long it'll last. What kind of trip is this? ”

“Yeah, in case you run into a pirate, I think his legs are getting soft. ”

“Phew, phew! What are you talking about? ”

“Yes, yes, a smooth sail, certainly a smooth sail! ”

Dong Xuebin listened to the discussion of the sailors around him, but he did not listen. He stared straight at the grounds of the pirates in the distance for a long time and looked at them with contemplation. The next day after the departure of the Republic's warship, it is estimated that he had already set sail, and he did not know that he had not reached this area. Now he must still be in the hands of the pirates. Dong Xuebin wondered how to meet his daughter and go directly to the pirate base? But it's full of ocean, I'm afraid it's unlikely, or you can stop yourself from landing on land? Find the pirates again?

Dong Xuebin wanted to think about it, or felt that the latter's chances of success were greater. Therefore, he probably had an idea in his mind, and repeatedly planned it over and over again.

Five minutes… ten minutes… half an hour… Suddenly someone shouted on the deck.

“Eh, ahead is...”

“There's a boat ahead! ”

“Captain! Captain!”

Dong Xuebin also saw that there was indeed a white object just ahead.

Niu Dazhang walked up to the deck and looked away with a telescope. Suddenly, Niu Dazhang's face changed dramatically, "Turn around! It's pirates! ”

“What?”

“Pirates? ”

The crew is in a mess!

Bull shouted, “These bastards! How come the sea is so far away? Still parked there? What's this for? Who are you waiting for? ”

In general, pirates are responsible for hijacking boats. These are speedboats, the lifeboats of some of the staff left around when they went to the park to paddle boats. They are about the same, extremely fast and easy to navigate. So when they first saw a boat several times bigger than the speedboat, the crew didn't take it seriously. Who wants to be a pirate? The pirate boat still stops there and waits quietly? This is clearly beyond their perception!

"“ Come on! Turn around! ”

Everybody's in a hurry, they're all busy!

“No!” cringed the cow with the telescope: “Here they come! It's coming our way! There are speedboats next to us! ”

A speedboat?

And a speedboat?

Everyone looked pale and panicked.

In the face of death, the crew had solved everything.

But of course their cargo ships are faster than each other's speedboats, and then you see the pirates getting closer and closer!

It's over!

I can't hide!

Niu Dawei also saw the big picture go, and he wrestled the telescope on the deck angrily, "These bastards! Guys, it's a dead end! Fight them! ”

But no one responded to him.

Pirates have guns.

If they are captured at will, the state can still ransom them, and there is a chance, but if they resist, their lives will not be saved!

The crew were all grieving.

Niu Dazhang also said something, seeing everyone like this, he sighed heavily and said nothing more.

Only Dong Xuebin looked calmly at the white dots not far away, his eyes slightly squinted and looked at them without blinking. Where's the pirate's boat been parked? How many speedboats and a master ship? Know they'll take this route? That's obviously not possible. Could it be that these pirates are the ones who hijacked the gang? Already made a deal with the Republic's warships here? They parked the boat there a long time ago. Is this waiting for the Republic's warships? It's possible!

Dong Xuebin couldn't help but smile cold!

I'm not going to look for you, are you looking for me?

Well done! Save me a lot of strength!!
