Chapter 1855 Shit Luck
"Report, leaders, the pilot boat in front hit a sunken log, and a big hole was broken in the cabin. The boat behind thought it was attacked and stopped urgently. Because our boat team ship As soon as the speed was lifted, there were so many ships that it was not easy to stop them, causing some ships to collide. "
A Japanese pirate ran all the way from the deck into the cabin, half-kneeling on the ground towards Xu Hai. Others reported.
"Trash! What do the people on the pilot boat have to eat? They can't even find such a big dead wood in the river!"
Maye yelled, he was in a bad mood at the moment.
"That, that, I heard that the piece of sunken wood is half floating and half sinking in the river. Most people can't see it if they are not careful."
The Japanese pirate explained in a low voice that one of the Japanese pirates on the pilot boat was not related to him. Normally, he doesn't want him to be implicated in a life-long friendship.
"You can't see it if you're not careful?! That's not because you're not careful enough!" Maye scolded even more fiercely.
"Brother Ma, calm down. Come over here and I'll ask you, what does the dead wood look like when the front ship encounters it? Is it freshly cut down?"
After listening to the report of the Japanese pirates under his command, Xu Hai immediately became vigilant, stood up and continued to ask questions.
"Leader, this is not a newly felled tree. It is an ebony tree that has been sleeping under the water for who knows how many years. For some reason, it just came up from the bottom of the water in the past two days. It is pitch black." The Japanese pirate shook his head and replied truthfully. road.
Hearing that the trees were not newly cut down, Xu Hai put down his guard and sat back relaxedly.
"Dark bird wood?! Hahaha, that ship is really unlucky. I learned this before when I was an apprentice to an old carpenter. Ebony is very valuable, almost as much as one or two birds of wood. One tael of silver. A piece of dark wood that thick is worth at least a thousand taels of silver. Haha, although the front boat hit a hole, we got a lot of windfall. This is a good sign. God is blessing us."
After hearing this, Chen Dong laughed. , I feel like this is a good sign and can boost low morale.
“Made, it’s easier for them.”
After listening to Chen Dong's words, Maye curled her lips. He also knew that this was something that could boost morale. This was just like the emperor liked to hear the auspicious news. As soon as he heard the auspicious news, he couldn't wait to tell the world.
Their raid on Suzhou was a huge defeat. The morale of the Japanese pirates under their command was low. Let's continue to boost their morale.
Phoenix Qilin and the others have not been able to encounter it, and the dark wood worth a thousand taels of silver is a rare good sign for them.
“Well, since Brother Chen and Brother Ma have said so, it will be easier for them this time. As the pilot ship, they did not observe the river carefully, which caused the fleet to collide. Originally, I wanted to I'll punish them."
Xu Hai nodded and let the Japanese pirates on the pilot ship go. He was really planning to punish them severely.
Giving both kindness and power has always been the only way to control people.
The Suzhou strategy failed, and kindness cannot be given, so now they can only show force. This time they are lucky.
Soon, the news about Xu Hai, Chen Dong, and Maye’s reward of Wuchenmu for the lead ship spread throughout the fleet. After the pilot ship received the news, it immediately burst into earth-shaking cheers. This heavy and thick ebony wood can give each of them ten taels of silver, how can they not be happy.
On this trip to Suzhou, many of their comrades died, but little was gained. This windfall was a good bonus.
At least, their harvest from the trip to Suzhou was suddenly ahead of 99% of their fellow Japanese pirates.
The Japanese pirates on other Japanese ships admired their bad luck.
There was a big hole in the cabin of the original pilot boat. It was simply repaired with wooden boards and it was barely able to stop water from entering. However, it is no longer possible to ride on it. We must go back and do some repairs. Now we can only use ropes. Tie was towed back to Torin's lair on other ships, and the crew on the pilot ship dispersed to other Japanese ships.
As for the important task of piloting, it was left to its Japanese ships.
Soon, the Japanese pirate fleet set sail again.
"Mad, it's so beautiful that Muheiteng and the others actually hit a bird tree. That shit is so lucky. I don't know if we have such shit luck." On the new pilot boat, a The five big and three thick Japanese pirates began to curse in admiration.
"Haha, Hei Niu, don't stop dreaming. It's a once-in-a-hundred-year chance to encounter a bird's nest tree on this river. I still hope to encounter one. Do you think the bird's nest tree is a bad thing? Big carrot, can you just hit it if you want? "
The other Japanese pirates on the boat laughed and cursed at the Japanese pirate Black Niu's whims.
"Damn, we always have to have dreams. What if we are lucky enough and encounter a piece of dark wood? They are fucking Japanese pirates with no conscience, and no one can compare to them. Who is noble and unreasonable? A bad guy can have shitty luck, but we can’t have it?!”
The Japanese pirate named Hei Niu spat into the river and retorted unconvinced, with greedy eyes. Stare at the river.
The Japanese pirate fleet traveled along the river, and there were not a few Japanese pirates on the boat who stared at the waterway like Hei Niu.
Many Japanese pirates on board were staring at the river, hoping to have the same bad luck as Heiteng and others.
However, obviously they didn’t have that kind of luck, and they didn’t encounter another piece of ebony wood until they arrived in Kunshan.
The river where the Japanese boats sailed made a nearly ninety-degree turn when it reached Kunshan, turning to the north. The Japanese pilot ship reduced its speed and took the lead in turning. The rest of the fleet behind them also reduced their speed and slowly followed. Steering.
Due to the turn, the Japanese pirate fleet was concentrated at this turning point at this moment, and it was a little blocked.
The black cow on the pilot boat was greedy for money. He kept staring at the river in front of him without giving up. Suddenly, a black shadow in the river jumped into his eyes, and his adrenaline suddenly started to boil.
"Niao Chenmu, another piece of ebony wood, look quickly, look forward like crazy, is that the ebony wood in front of you?!"
Hei Niu excitedly pointed to the piece of black wood in front of him. Ying shouted, his eyes glowing with greedy golden light.
After Hei Niu said this, all the other Japanese pirates on the pilot boat were immediately attracted and looked at the hand of Japanese pirate Hei Niu.
“Damn it, it seems to be really sunken wood, but I don’t know if it is black sunken wood.” The other Japanese pirates on the boat also saw the half-floating and half-sunken wood in the river in front, and they couldn’t help but get excited.
"Quickly, what are you still doing? Come and salvage it quickly and see if it's a birdwood. If it's a birdwood, we're just out of luck. Haha, when we get back to our lair, we can also find a few Japanese girls to show off. It’s evening.”
Hei Niu drooled with excitement. The other Japanese pirates on the boat showed off their skills, throwing Zhujun and others up, and salvaging the sunken wood in the river. (End of this chapter)
