After leaving the battlefield in Trinidad, Lu Yuan drove the damaged "Siren" and neither followed Misha and others westward to Port-au-Prince, nor "sneaked back" eastward to Havana. 【Read the latest chapter】
He drove the boat straight towards the south of Trinidad, towards the vast and empty sea.
People were coming and going on the deck, and all the sailors who had nothing to do were actively repairing the ship while excitedly discussing the division of the spoils. Lu Yuan promised that as long as the sale of the stolen goods went smoothly, he would distribute the money immediately! The pirates, who had never done such a big deal before, burst into cheers! Think of the cargo of those two heavy ships! It took them a whole night to move it!
During today's battle, everyone went into battle with panda eyes! In the local fleet of Trinidad, those crew members who traveled overnight were evenly matched and did not take advantage.
Moreover, Lu Yuan promised that this time even the two merchant ships would be within the scope of selling stolen goods! Suddenly the total amount jumped to another hundred thousand pesos! Because everyone contributed a lot this time, the crew members were not treated differently from the gunners and the commandos, and they were all divided equally per head! Among them, Lu Yuan was treated as a captain, Misha was treated as a logistics officer, and Jacques was treated as an officer. He secretly calculated and came up with a number, and then...then ran around on the deck like crazy! He would pull out the nails that others had hammered in and hammer them in again!
The scope of the spoils agreed upon this time was the two Frut merchant ships and their cargo, with a total value of approximately 210,000 pesos!
Beyond this. Whether it's the guns on the ship, the newly added china tableware, or the wanted notices after killing those pirates, etc. All belong to Lu Yuan.
First, the 210,000 pesos that the goods were valued at was itself assessed based on 70% of the actual price. Basically in line with the situation of selling stolen goods.
Within the scope of dividing the stolen goods, Lu Yuan used his absolute advantages in planning, sailing, bombardment, and personal strength to directly share half of it, which was 100,000 pesos.
The officers and logistics chiefs, including Auguste, Jacques, Elisabeth and Micha, took away about a quarter, worth fifty thousand pesos. But their specific income depends on the selling price. If the excess profit is sold, half will be distributed among the officers and logistics officers. If it is less than the expected profit, it will be deducted from their share.
Since officers and logistics officers only have a quarter quota. In other words, if the loss exceeds 25%, sales will be abandoned directly. That’s why they all ran to Port-au-Prince! If she could get tens of thousands of pesos at a time, even Elizabeth would think she was rich! What's more, Misha is a money-mad person. As the logistics officer, if she successfully sells the stolen goods, she can get half of it!
The remaining eighty-two crew members were divided equally among the sixty thousand, and each of them could receive close to seven hundred and fifty pesos! This may be the biggest amount of money they can get in their lives! in this era. Most sailors get less than thirty pesos a month…
Jacques slipped down from the mast and rushed to Lu Yuan at the helm. Lu Yuan made new discoveries about this kid... It's not that he likes squatting on the observation deck, he's just shy and afraid of seeing women... when there are women on the boat. He never gets close to Lu Yuan.
Now that Misha and Elizabeth are going to Port-au-Prince together, Jacques has become the highest-ranking person on the ship besides Lu Yuan, and he feels it himself. So I ran to Lu Yuan to brush up on his presence.
"Um, Captain. That's it?" Jacques said cautiously.
"Of course..." Lu Yuan replied seemingly unconsciously, "That's it."
"How could you just let it go!?" Jacques jumped up. He said angrily. Elizabeth recounted what happened in Trinidad vividly! The people on the ship were very angry. Elizabeth didn't know the situation at that time, but many of them were direct participants in that battle! Regardless of victory or defeat, they all thought it was a great battle!
Therefore, Jacques was a little dissatisfied that Lu Yuan actually lifted it up high and then dropped it gently.
No, I am very dissatisfied!
"Of course that's all I can do, what else can I do? If I hurt that McLaren, Elizabeth will also be sad, and it will be difficult to explain to her friends in the future..."
"There's a fleet ahead! It's Morgan! It's Morgan's pirate fleet!!!" The lookout on the mast suddenly shouted, interrupting the conversation between the two people. The lookout looked at the captain in a panic, waiting for him to give an order. The "Siren" has been impersonating the Morgan fleet for the past two days. Now that it meets its real owner, it is inevitable that it will be a little panicked.
"Direction?" Lu Yuan asked loudly and nonchalantly.
"East...southeast."
As soon as Lu Yuan turned the wheel, the "Siren" turned briskly to the southeast, heading straight towards the Morgan fleet.
In the golden setting sun on the sea, a forest-like densely packed sail masts were revealed, and then they saw waving black flags and huge ships!
After the "Siren" approached, judging from its size, it looked like a child about to rush into the adult world.
Under the huge pressure, the sailors on the ship gradually became silent. Everyone watched in awe as as many as twenty or thirty warships of various types formed a formation, occupying a large area of the sea in darkness, and neatly moved towards the special ship. Sailing in the direction of Trinidad!
Seeing that the smallest ships in the Morgan fleet were all four-star ships, Jacques felt a little weak. He wanted to climb to the mast to have a closer look. But now...if he leaves, he will definitely be regarded as a coward! So both Jacques and the pirates tried to look indifferent. But the harder he tried, the stiffer and weirder his movements looked.
Lu Yuan chuckled and did not try to correct him. Their appearance will definitely make the pirates in Morgan's fleet look down on them, and in turn make Morgan look down on the "Siren". Well, it's okay to let Morgan look down on him. Maybe it will be more convenient when he needs to trick him one day...
When it's almost close. The "Siren" flexibly turned in a half circle and inserted into Morgan's fleet. Start walking alongside them. This gesture seemed a bit showy, and all the sailors on the ship looked unhappy. It made the surrounding pirates burst into laughter.
Fortunately, during the voyage, the fleet's gun doors were not opened. As the roar of laughter rang out, the sailors of the Kraken took a few deep breaths, and most of them blushed for a moment, then nothing happened. Movements also become natural.
Lu Yuan felt that after he had underestimated the integrity and bottom line of the pirates, he had also underestimated their shamelessness.
Their adaptability is really strong!
As the smallest and most agile ship in the entire fleet, the "Siren" moved freely through the sailing fleet in no time. It was close to Morgan's flagship. No order was sent from Morgan's ship to stop it. The surrounding pirates watched. When the "Siren" actually used a wave to directly connect the hook bridge on the ship's side to Morgan's flagship, they drank loudly. A shout of joy!
The hook bridge is a device used during bang bang jumping, which can directly build a small bridge between two ships. The waves are not big now, and it is even possible for Morgan's flagship to take the "Siren" away.
"Let's go, let's take you to meet Morgan!"
Lu Yuan patted Jacques on the shoulder and walked onto the sloping hook bridge with a smile. He didn't care at all about the unkind eyes on the other side. In any case, the hook bridge is also a tool for jumping and fighting. Of course, the crew members on the Morgan flagship will not be happy if the hook bridge is hung up.
Morgan seemed the same as when we last saw him. There is no difference, they all look unhappy. Last time, it was because he had just been defeated, so it was inevitable that his face would look bad. Why is it like this today? Lu Yuan shook his head. Today was obviously a good thing, but he still looked unlucky... All day long he had the look of someone owing him money. It must be hard being his henchman.
"Can't you just use a normal way to get on the boat?!" Morgan couldn't help but complain. Bad luck to your sister! Of course it would be unlucky to be slapped at sea!
"Hehe~" Lu Yuan said hehe. He took out an envelope and quickly opened it in front of Morgan. The distance not only prevents Morgan from reaching out to grab it, but also allows him to clearly distinguish between true and false. "The surrender of the Port of Trinidad, signed in the name of the Morgan Pirates, is valid for three months! Where is your money? I didn't see it..."
"Huh!" Morgan waved his hands angrily. Six pirates lifted three large wooden boxes from the cabin! The weight of the box was obviously not light. The six pirates with bronze strength had muscles all over their bodies, and it seemed that they had to use all their strength to lift it.
When they got closer, there were three "dong dong dong" sounds, and the box was placed heavily at Lu Yuan's feet.
"Sixty thousand pesos! Letter!" Morgan frowned and said unceremoniously.
"Did you... take the wrong box?" Lu Yuan's hand holding the letter swayed, and his toes gently kicked the box beside his legs. The box looked as light as a rubber ball, flying on Lu Yuan's toes, shaking the coins inside.
"Oops, why does it sound like there are only two thousand pesos? There are so many coins in it. Where did you find so much change? Do you drive a bus?"
Morgan didn't listen to Lu Yuan's sarcasm at all. He looked at Lu Yuan's hand shaking the envelope in surprise. As Lu Yuan's hand shook, the letter was actually breaking into pieces, very slowly, bit by bit, into pieces of paper and fell on the deck!
"Stop!" Morgan stared at Lu Yuan fiercely for a long time before saying, "I took the wrong one... Go and exchange for three boxes!" He ordered loudly.
"Yes", the big men on the side agreed, and they came over to lift the wooden box in twos and twos, but Lu Yuan stretched out his foot and stepped on one of them. No matter how hard the two big men tried, the box was like taking root and did not move at all!
"I'm short of change recently," Lu Yuan spread his hands innocently.
"This box is for you!" Morgan waved his hand, like getting rid of a fly, turned around and never looked at Lu Yuan again. Lu Yuan whistled and sat idle on the box waiting. Jacques looked at this and that, he was so nervous that he could hardly breathe!
After a while, six big men brought up three iron boxes again and placed them at Lu Yuan's feet.
Morgan glanced at him sideways, paced back and forth, and said, "This time you...",
Unexpectedly, before he started to speak, Lu Yuan's acrobatic hands were grabbing at each other, and the iron box full of gold coins was thrown up like a toy, and they were stacked together. Then Lu Yuan swung his cloak and threw the four Cover the box! "Dang-dang-dang!" When he opened it again... all of your sister's things had disappeared!
"How about this magic trick?!"
Morgan was stunned, feeling that his mind was in chaos, and he had forgotten even what he wanted to say.
"Here's a letter for you! See you later!" Lu Yuan quickly waved his hand, and the letter in his hand spun and flew smoothly towards Morgan. This forced Morgan to stop talking again to receive this very important letter! But when he held the surprisingly slow-flying letter in his hand, Lu Yuan had already pulled Jacques and jumped back to the "Siren", and was putting away the hook bridge with a smile...
Morgan felt a tight breath in his chest, which was much sadder than last time! Lu Yuan's quick and slow actions actually completely ruined his planned arrangements! Now Lu Yuan had returned to the boat. He turned the sail slightly and turned the boat into a headwind state, and the boat stopped. This caused the pirate ships that followed to dodge in a hurry, and immediately distanced themselves from Morgan's flagship.
Morgan looked at the Kraken, which was almost out of the fleet, and knew that his plan was in vain and he had lost more than 60,000 pesos.
Fortunately, the letter of surrender was true, which finally gave Morgan some psychological comfort.
But what Lu Yuanjia said above made Morgan almost vomit three liters of blood!
"You don't know how big McLaren's background is, right? In order not to cause trouble for you, I'll help you put them away! This service is free, so you're welcome!"
****
After breaking away from Morgan's fleet in the blink of an eye, Lu Yuan swung the wheel and steered the ship out of Morgan's route.
He looked at Jacques' hesitant expression and chuckled, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"Did you plan to sell Trinidad early on?" Jacques asked cautiously.
"Yes. I've already contacted Morgan before the fight started!" Lu Yuan told the truth. If it weren’t for the sake of making a good sound, I wouldn’t go through such a big circle! Even if the fleet and the port are tied together to fight, he can still win! It's just a miserable win.
"Then you...didn't you say forget it?" This is what Jacques is most confused about. He clearly agreed to let me go...
"Of course forget it?!" Lu Yuan looked at Jacques in surprise, then patted him on the shoulder earnestly and persuaded, "You are still young, you need to remember to 'treat others with mercy and be kind to others'! Look at what we are doing They robbed the goods, sold the port, and didn't even leave the ship behind... If they did this, they would be slapped in the face! Of course, forget it next! 'A gentleman does not care for himself'!"
"Captain..." The expression on Jacques' face now was comparable to Morgan's. "You...are really the captain!" (To be continued...)
