Black sails

Chapter 33 XXXIII. Family Banquet

Tightly flick the smooth fingers, the soft white flesh of the palms, and the warm breath lingering around the ears.

Li Site is extremely comfortable, and this fingering technique is quite particular.

Morrison is a restless person. After drinking tea, he paced back and forth in the room, turning into a stress monster.

Li Site's good mood was gone. There would indeed be something important to do later.

"Oh, by the way, I brought a bottle of wine."

Li Site almost forgot to give a gift and handed the rum he bought with two copper coins to the count's son.

The earl's son took it and looked at it. He had never been exposed to this kind of wine. In his eyes, it was a rare novelty, possibly a valuable specialty of Tianguo Port.

"Come here, why don't you give me a gift?"

The earl's son was polite and asked the servant to bring it to the table during the dinner later.

"What kind of job is it? Your farm should have a lot of customers. It's time to use it. Why do you have to find us?"

Li Site probed.

"The village does have a lot of customers, and most of them are martial artists. They must be professionals who are familiar with the East China Sea to run it well."

The earl's son looked at the wall clock and saw that the time was almost up.

Li Site raised his eyebrows, and he guessed very well.

At this time, the door of the tea room was knocked slowly and crisply twice. After obtaining the consent of the earl's son, the elegant middle-aged butler in a tuxedo entered the room with his hands behind his back.

Bow to the earl's son,

"Master, the banquet has been prepared. The master, madam, and eldest lady have all taken their seats. If it is convenient, I will take a few distinguished guests to the main hall."

The butler said respectfully.

The earl's son couldn't ask for more.

"Isn't it time to turn your intestines again? It's a delicious meal today."

Morrison made explosive remarks that completely ruined the atmosphere.

Turning the intestines means that if you haven't eaten good food for a long time, a sudden change of greasy and meaty food can easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort and make you sick.

"please."

The middle-aged butler smiled awkwardly, not expecting these pirates to know any etiquette.

The tea room is in an annex building. To get to the main dining hall, you can go to the main building through the arch bridge built between the high floors of the building.

Leaving the teahouse, walking through the bright corridor to the covered bridge connecting the buildings, the sea breeze is cool. Standing on this covered bridge dozens of meters above the ground, you can see a different scenery of the entire Linden City. You can almost take in all of it. fundus.

The three of them stopped on the covered bridge.

The housekeeper and the earl's son also waited wisely, knowing that this manor belonged to the top area of ​​Linden City, and this kind of scenery was rare for them.

“I didn’t expect Linden City to have such a side.”

Li Site stood on the guardrail and marveled. He had been to Linden City many times in the past few years, but they were always in chaotic muddy areas such as Miharang, slums, and markets. Only by standing at the highest point could he appreciate the east side. The beauty and grandeur of the densely packed buildings in Dagang.

If you don’t consider your position, it would be a pity to give these ice-free ports on the east coast to the current brainless king of Beima. If the emperor were to directly build them, it would not be a problem to make them look like beautiful illustrations. The land price in this city is still high. It can be doubled tenfold or even ninefold.

"If you are not wanted, you can open an office here, help adventurers with power training, and in turn become a bounty hunter, killing pirates."

Before boarding the ship, Morrison's bounty was the most common human life lawsuit in the Department of Justice. He did not provoke the government or big forces, so Oakes said that the origin was clean, and it was not a big deal if he was only killed by a bounty hunter. After all, the bandits of Bema Principality are now The system of the Justice Department has become paralyzed. Most of the officers and soldiers who specialize in apprehending fugitives are shady soldiers who only exist on paper with empty pay. Now the Justice Department is just a platform for the separatist forces to collect money and hire bounty hunters to take charge of local security. The palace's The influence is slowly being eroded by the brain-dead king.

"When I was at Pedan National Arcane Academy..."

Fin wasn't done yet.

"Stop it, you can go."

Li Site didn't want to listen to Fen's pretense at all. He went to Oxford in the Western Continent every day. You have played, seen and eaten, right? You guys are all mountain cannons, right?

In addition, Li Site almost lost his strength. He was the only one holding his hand on the edge of the guardrail and could see the lower edge of the covered bridge.

I don’t know where Swann practiced his skills.

If it weren't for Li Site's high psychological quality, he would have been almost shocked. Si Wan was squatting under the covered bridge, hanging upside down with his amazing finger strength against gravity, with only one head exposed, and he also had one hand free to do something to Li Site. Even if I made a no-questions-asked gesture, I wouldn’t be afraid of falling to my death from a height of dozens of meters.

Li Site felt relieved and asked Si Wan to do the detection to see if there was any ambush. He should be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Years Ship. It seemed that he was indeed looking for a serious job.

After the group crossed the covered bridge, Swann climbed onto the bridge nimbly and followed behind like no one else, making no sound at all while walking.

five minutes later.

Main hall.

In an unusually spacious room, three crystal lamps are suspended to provide dense lighting. Facing the Wabi-sabi style long table made of precious stone with imitation log texture, the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows almost hollow out the entire peripheral wall, and the sea breeze sways the gauze curtains.

The most advanced interior designers must know how to use light and shadow. There are only three chandeliers in the house that focus on the dining table and the natural light of the night sky at the window.

The exquisitely carved horseshoe-leg seats made of the finest golden nanmu, and the snow fox fur cushions that are popular among the aristocrats.

"Welcome to my humble home. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

The count saw the three people coming in and spoke politely.

The earl sat at the head of the long table. He was wearing loose casual clothes at home and did not dress up specially. His wife sat next to him. She was ridiculously young. On the right side sat the earl's eldest daughter. The earl's son also sat down at this time, and then He is a confidant with a resolute face.

"How can this be a humble place? My boat is ninety-nine levels into the abyss."

The ninety-nine levels of the abyss here in the Western Continent are equivalent to the eighteen levels of hell in Li Site's hometown.

Li Site and his party were sitting on the left side. They were not particular about the order. For convenience, Li Site was closest to the earl.

Nobles are very particular about where they eat. You can tell your identity from the position. Morrison's eyelids twitched. The count looked like he was in his fifties, with white temples. His wife was younger than his daughter. She looked so good. Called a handsome man, with his snow-white neck exposed, wearing a low-cut evening dress, and hanging a crystal necklace on his chest, who can withstand this? My little mother is literary.

"Everyone knows the name of the captain, and these two must be famous on the east coast..." The count thought about the words, because pirates' nicknames are very ugly, and they often choose the worst words, and they also use the worst words. It has to be popular and easy to spread before it is widely known. Usually it is extremely vulgar, so forget about the title, "First mate and gunner."

Because Black Sail and his gang are extremely rampant, they are on the blacklist of the Governor of the East Coast. The bounty order clearly states which positions are good at and which weapons. It is equivalent to giving bounty hunters a free guide. What is their weakness? Speed. Go ahead and kill.

"It's ridiculous. A bunch of people just went out to sea to make a living. They all have a bad reputation."

Li Site started to chat with the earl, talking here and there, but they didn't get to the main topic.

After some courtesy.

The count began to introduce his family members and a close confidant.

Just when the cronies were introduced.

"I don't know what abilities you pirates have to attract the earl's attention."

The cronies suddenly started to get angry.
