"Are you here?" Yaha greeted Xia Ye when he saw her coming in, "I just saw you standing on the front deck, looking at the etheric sea for a long time."
"Um……"
After Xia Ye responded, there was nothing more to say. She was still surprised about the sailor uniform. After looking at everyone in the cab, her eyes returned to Yaha.
"Pfft~" She finally couldn't help it and gave a short laugh.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing." Xia Ye waved her hands quickly.
Then he continued to stare at Yaha.
Yaha is about 1.75 meters tall, and his figure is definitely not slender. Except for the jaw-dropping fullness of his chest, there are looming muscle lines everywhere else.
In addition, his skin color is light brown and his face is neutral. For such a person, after putting on a sailor uniform...
It's surprisingly appropriate.
Probably because she wore a straight black jacket over her top, which suppressed the light and airy feeling of the sailor suit and made the outfit look more neutral.
All in all, she looks like the "Prince-sama" character in shoujo yuri manga that makes little girls scream...
Yes, but the exquisiteness of the facial features is still a bit lacking.
A low-end version of the prince...
Phew~
In comparison, others are much more "normal". The average appearance of the witch is already very high. Even if you pick any crew member at random, their appearance and figure will not be too bad. After everyone puts on sailor uniforms, Xia Ye feels as if she has arrived at a campus where all the members are beautiful girls. .
But this isn’t a campus, it’s a whaling ship. Do you want to go hunting in pleated skirts and stockings?
"Um...what's going on with these clothes you are wearing?" She finally couldn't help asking Yaha.
"What's going on?"
"It's just... uh..." Looking at the incomprehensible expression on the other side, Xia Ye didn't know how to express it, "It's just... why are you all wearing the same clothes?"
"Oh, you said this." Yaha felt that he understood Xia Ye's question, "This is a sailor uniform."
Of course I know this is called a sailor suit...eh? wrong. Are the sailor uniforms in this world really meant for sailors to wear?
"What is a sailor suit?" she asked simply.
"As the name suggests, they are the clothes worn by sailors." Yaha began to educate Xia Ye: "As long as it is a more formal whaling ship, after going to sea, all crew members on the ship must wear sailor uniforms, even the captain is no exception. Of course, The captain can wear an extra coat like this as a status symbol.”
"But why do you want everyone to dress like this? What's the point?"
"Of course... please wait for me." After Yaha finished speaking, he called the first mate over - she was a cute girl wearing round glasses. After explaining, the first mate began to temporarily command Mo Mo on behalf of the captain. Bidik.
Yaha, who no longer needed to be distracted, began to concentrate on teaching Xia Ye.
"First of all, everyone on this ship was recruited temporarily. To put it bluntly, they are a mess. Providing everyone to wear the same clothes will help improve organization and cohesion. Although the actual effect may be very limited, it is at least better than nothing. That's the first reason."
"Yeah." Xia Ye nodded repeatedly like a well-behaved student.
This statement was completely understandable to her, after all, there was a similar approach in the original world.
"Secondly, from a practical point of view, wearing sailor uniforms can allow everyone to intuitively distinguish each person's rank and position."
"Huh? How to tell?" she asked curiously.
"Look at the socks first." Yaha pointed to his long legs, "The black pantyhose are the captain, the black knee-high socks are the first mate, the white pantyhose are the second mate, and the black and white knee-high socks are the chief engineer. As for All the rest of the crew, white knee socks.”
"Ah this..." With just one sentence, Xia Ye's mouth opened wide and she couldn't say a word.
You witches really know how to play...
Yaha didn't pay attention to Xia Ye's expression. She pulled the bow tie tied under her big lapel again and continued to introduce: "Socks mainly distinguish levels, and bow ties distinguish positions. This is more complicated. It takes too much time to introduce each one." I don't have much time, so I can only give you a few examples:
"Management personnel such as captains and first mates are uniformly dressed in black, gunners are in red, helmsmen are in blue, fellers are in pink, and lookouts are in purple... In short, once you are familiar with it, you can immediately identify a person just by looking at what they are wearing. Knowing her rank and position, that’s the benefit of uniformly wearing a sailor uniform.”
Xia Ye was stunned for a moment after hearing this introduction, and finally couldn't help but sigh: "What you said makes sense..."
"Of course!" Yaha said proudly: "This is the experience we whalers have accumulated after countless trips to sea. If you want to hunt whales, you must first manage the crew well. If you want to manage the crew well, these details are necessary. Indispensable.”
Xia Ye nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
But……
"But... why are the sailor uniforms designed like this?" she asked.
This was the key point of doubt in her mind.
When Yaha heard this question, he looked confused: "Is there anything wrong with this look?"
Uh... If there's anything wrong with it, it doesn't seem to be there. You can't just say "it's wrong because it's so pretty", right?
"Uh... that's right! For example, if the skirt is so short, wouldn't it be inconvenient to move around?" Xia Ye finally thought of a reason.
Yaha's expression became even more confused: "Why is it inconvenient to have a short skirt? Only long and bloated skirts like yours will affect your movement, right?"
As she spoke, she pointed at Xia Ye's lower body.
Xia Ye did wear a long dress with a waistband today. After all, she has either been wearing short skirts or shorts for so many days, and occasionally she wants to change her taste.
Besides, I originally thought that a whaling ship would be very sophisticated. Everyone must be wearing long clothes and long trousers, and they would look like butchers preparing to kill whales. But now I look at it - good guy, I have become the most tightly wrapped one. People.
"But short skirts will..."
She originally wanted to say, "But short skirts will reveal your exposure," but before she finished speaking, she suddenly thought - for a witch, there is no such concept as "revealing your exposure," right?
Therefore, it is convenient for skirts to be as short as possible.
So this kind of uniform that looks like Cosplay on a summer night will become a real work uniform.
Everything that seems strange turns out to be so reasonable in the world of witches.
simply……
marvelous! !
"What will happen to short skirts?" Yaha was still wondering about Xia Ye's unasked question.
But she had no doubts.
"Nothing." Xia Ye shook his head and then made his new request: "I also want to wear a sailor uniform."
"Uh...?" This was the first time Yaha heard such a request, "But you are not a crew member, so there is no need to wear such a uniform."
"Although I'm not a crew member...but I am the ship owner! Speaking of which, I'm one level older than you, the captain! It's not too much to wear a sailor uniform, right?" Xia Ye began to make up excuses.
Although Yaha wants to complain that you are not the ship owner, "Ocean Ship Charter" is the ship owner...
But Xia Ye was her guarantor, and he was the guarantor who spent a full 3,500 moles to guarantee her. Therefore, the words "one level higher than her as a captain" are correct.
"I know." Yaha nodded, "But, which level of sailor uniform do you want to wear? Captain's type?"
"I want them all at any level." Xia Ye said that she was no longer a child who could make choices.
Yaha: "???"
"Just pick one of each type of sailor uniform and send it to my room. I can wear whatever I like to wear every day." She began to give orders to the captain.
"...Okay." Yaha scratched his head speechlessly, and finally agreed.
There is no way, Xia Ye is the financial sponsor. Without her, there would be no Moby Dick, and she would not be the captain.
Yaha called the second officer - a silver-haired girl with an eyepatch on her left eye. Then, she told the second officer Xia Ye's request.
The silver-haired girl turned to look at Xia Ye. As soon as she spoke, Xia Ye was startled:
"Fellow Taoist, you want to borrow a robe? It's a trivial matter. Just bring a few more. I was still worried just now because there were too many things in my storage bracelet. Now I just need to free up some space, hahaha..."
