"But," An Xiu asked worriedly, "won't they sneak attack on various merchant ships while having a banquet?"
"Will it happen?" Qian Hai looked at An Xiu with a smile, "Why don't you come with me and see if it's over~"
"Me?" An Xiu said dissatisfied: "Why should I accompany you?"
"Because you are a man," Qian Hai asked matter-of-factly: "Do you want Sister Juan to accompany me?"
Just before sunset, three maritime mercenaries rowed a small boat to pick up Qian Hai and An Xiu. Also sitting on the boat were Bi Ziyan and his guards.
"Master Qianhai, it's great to see you safe and sound." Bi Ziyan said enthusiastically.
"Yes, thank you for inviting me to join the fleet, otherwise we would be in danger." Qian Hai smiled.
"No way, no way," Bi Ziyan looked guilty, "If I hadn't invited you to join the fleet, maybe you wouldn't have been attacked by sea beasts at all."
"Hey, that's too far-fetched," Qian Hai asked with concern, "Is your ship okay today?"
"Our ship is fine, two crew members are injured, and the cargo is fine."
"Mr. Bi, I have never done trade before, and I have a question for you," Qian Hai said curiously: "Why do you use ships to transport goods when there is such a convenient thing as a space ring?"
"It seems like you were born into a wealthy family," Bi Ziyan explained to Qian Hai with a smile: "Perhaps space rings are very common in your eyes, but in fact space rings are very expensive, and the capacity of ordinary space rings is also very limited. It simply cannot meet the demand for freight.”
"So that's it." Qian Hai nodded and continued to ask: "Then if, I mean if, there is an accident on the ship, can you quickly run away with your cargo?"
"Haha, that's the last thing I want to happen," Bi Ziyan said with a wry smile: "In that case, I can only use the storage box to temporarily store all the cargo on my ship. But unlike the space ring, a storage box with a large capacity needs to be used Frequent refills for energy maintenance. This means that every minute I use the storage box, my shipping costs are increasing.”
'So, Bi Ziyan can abandon ship at any time. This guy seems to be doing well so far. If there is really chaos tonight, you can take him with you. Qian Hai smiled and nodded: "Oh, sea trade is really not easy."
"Everyone," a mercenary said, "We are here. Welcome everyone to our mercenary ship."
Qian Hai and Bi Ziyan followed the mercenaries to the spacious captain's cabin. At this time, the employers on the other two ships were already sitting at the wine table waiting. One was a middle-aged man who looked a little beaten, and a female swordsman guard stood behind him. , the other looked at a blond man who was not much older than Qian Hai, with a man carrying a shield standing behind him.
"Hahaha, welcome you two," a burly middle-aged man greeted Qian Hai and Bi Ziyan and said with a hearty smile, "I am Luo Qi, the leader of the mercenary group."
"Hello, Captain Luo Qi, it's an honor to meet you." Qian Hai smiled and turned on the tamperer and looked at Luo Qi in front of him, 'Level 38 (orange), late silver? ! Can this little strength lead people to wander around the sea area of the starting point? '
"Stop pretending to be a noble, country bumpkin." The blond man sitting at the wine table broke the harmonious atmosphere. He looked sideways at Qian Hai with disdain and said: "If you were really born into a noble family like me, you wouldn't just be able to afford The little speedboat goes to the place of origin.”
'kindness? What kind of wild nobleman is this from the sea? This kid must be the one who shouted on the boat a few days ago that he didn't want us to join the fleet, right? Qian Hai looked at the blond man and asked, "Sir, are we having a problem?"
"A holiday?" The blond man looked at Qian Hai with disdain, "If there were a holiday, do you think you would still be alive now?"
"Ah?!" Qian Hai immediately looked at Luo Qi in shock, "Captain Luo Qi, do you think you are actually taking orders from this young master? What you are doing is wrong. If you only listen to him Yes, that shouldn’t be our business!”
The blond man was stunned by what Qian Hai said and quickly argued: "Hey! Your kid is--"
"Master Cindry!"
Luo Qi interrupted the blond man with a loud voice. Under the vigilant eyes of the other two employers, he explained to Qian Hai with a smile: "Master Qian Hai, you misunderstood. Our mercenary group is hired by five employers at the same time. At least when we arrive at the destination, No one can hurt you before."
"You are the only one who wants to play this with me," Qian Hai smiled and glanced at Cindry, who was speechless. "If there was really a powerful family on the sea, how could you still hire sea mercenaries?" Can you still hire someone else on a joint basis? Just pretend to be gay with me~'
Qian Hai said to Luo Qi with lingering fear: "Oh, then I'm relieved. You are really a model of integrity among maritime mercenaries!"
"Hahaha," Luo Qi laughed and greeted Qian Hai and Bi Ziyan, "Come on, please take a seat."
After Qian Hai and Bi Ziyan sat down, Luo Qi called his men to start serving food. An Xiu, like the other guards, stood aggrievedly behind Qian Hai without saying a word. He occasionally looked up at Cindry, who was sitting opposite with an unhappy look on his face.
When the mercenaries filled the table with delicacies, Luo Qi raised his glass: "Come on, fellow employers, we have failed to fulfill our responsibilities for causing you some small setbacks today. This is the wine I have always treasured, and today's fresh sea beasts , please enjoy eating and drinking."
"Captain Luo Qi is so polite. It is because of you that we are safe." Everyone raised their glasses and toasted with Luo Qi.
Luo Qi put down his wine glass and looked at Qian Hai, "Master Qian Hai, are you going to the starting point to challenge the underground palace trial?"
'This is when several other employers found out and started to find out about me. Qian Hai smiled and said: "You think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary person. How can I challenge the underground palace trial? I just want to go to Junmo City to have a look."
"Oh?? Jun Mo City?" Luo Qi looked at Qian Hai's lavender short hair and asked with interest: "Could it be that you still have blood relatives in Jun Mo City?"
Qian Hai touched his hair, hinting to everyone that he was a demon hybrid, and said with a smile: "Maybe, I just don't know if I have a chance to see it, so I want to give it a try."
"So, your blood relative is a big shot in Jun Mo City?! If you find a blood relative in Jun Mo City, you will definitely be worth a hundred times!" Luo Qi raised his glass towards Qian Hai, "I will definitely give it to Master Qian Hai. This is your friend."
"Haha, definitely," Qian Hai also raised his glass, "We are friends now."
Seeing Qian Hai's proud look at being complimented, Sindri on the opposite side was obviously even more unhappy. However, due to the mercenary leader Luo Qi, he could only curl his lips and say nothing.
