Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 24: A Trial

Just like the Beidiwan people, the ancestors of pirates who robbed the entire continent, the Remit people also left a significant mark in the history of the continent.

The ethnic motto of the Beidiwan people: revenge is a must!
The racial motto of the Remit people is: be penny wise!
Most of the Remit people are eloquent, greedy and cruel. They have no country of their own and have been wandering around the continent.

They can be found from coast to coast.

It’s just that this ethnic group is extremely powerful. Not only did they create the “Golden Yuan Sequence”, they also have a huge and united business group.

For ordinary citizens, it is normal to earn money domestically and spend it domestically.

These people who have no country earn huge wealth in a country, but most of them will transfer it out and continue to suck blood.

Obviously, no royal family in any country would like these guys who parasitize on their bodies like tumors.

Compared to them, I even think those Beidiwan people who only know how to rob are more handsome.

However, the Remit people, who are already quite powerful, have an even more powerful backer.

In their propaganda, their ancestor is the only God believed in by the Old World, the Creator!
Although the church did not directly acknowledge their claims about the Creator, it did not deny them either.

Only a very small number of upper-class people know that every year the church's central church receives huge religious donations from major business groups in Remit.

The motto of the Jinyuan Sequence: Money speaks, truth is silent, and they have played this to the extreme.

In short, although many people hate the Remit people, not only can they not get rid of them, but they often have to cooperate with them with a pinch of their nose.

Some kings even had to borrow money from them when going to war.

[Blood Eyes] Salman has obviously suffered a lot from them in the past.

He turned to the first mate, Miles, and whispered, "I leave it to you. Make sure you raise the money to repair the Man-eating Shark!"

He returned to the captain's room without looking back.

He didn't want to deal with the Remit people at all, and he was even more worried that he would not be able to control himself and smash their heads, which would attract the law enforcement team from Anchor Bay.

"Yes, Captain!"

As the most senior pirate on the Man-eating Shark besides Salman, First Mate [Bonebreaker] Miles' duties include logistics and selling stolen goods.

Of course, he was no stranger to the Remit merchants and knew how difficult they were to deal with.

There is no way. Ever since the disappearance of the North Sea Pirate King [Whale Hunter], the Anchor Bay has adopted the captains' consensus system.

After the most powerful pirate captains distributed the profits, every drop of oil produced here had an owner.

It makes money faster than looting!

Now that they have stopped at this berth, if they don’t sell it to the Golden Palm Trading Company, I’m afraid no other black market traders will come to collect their spoils.

If you don't sell it for the time being and instead rent the warehouse inventory at the port, the numbers on the rental bill will definitely make you question your life.

At this time, he could only accept Salman's order with a bitter face.

'Although the Man-eating Shark often used killing to create fear, it was nothing in the eyes of the real pirates.

There were also not enough stable lootings to attract the attention of large trading companies and to assign special reception staff to them.

This time we can only deal with these scavenging vultures.'

All he could do was pray secretly in his heart that after converting the goods stolen from the Pelican into cash, he would be able to meet the requirements for repairing the ship.

Otherwise, the next crew member missing on the ship might be me.

"Hey Yo, Hey Yo"

Under his command, the sailors quickly shouted and lifted out various cargoes in the bottom hold using a crane converted from a mast.

The merchant Remit, who called himself Michael, came to the deck of the Man-eating Shark with his assistant and evaluated the price of each item with a smile.

Everyone knows the market prices of bulk goods such as textiles, ironware, etc., and there is a bottom line even if the prices are lowered.

The items with the most tricks are artworks, jewelry, and various aristocratic luxury goods with the most complex ingredients and the highest added value.

Among the pirate group, only a very small number of people are literate. How much artistic appreciation can we expect from them?

Isn't it just that the black market merchants have to say whatever they want?
At most, after being cheated too many times, relying on his rich experience of being cheated, he would choose a less cheating black market merchant from the crowd of cheating people. But even though he had prepared himself mentally for being cheated, the Remit merchant in front of him still disappointed the first mate Miles.

He never looked at anything without devaluing it to the point of being worthless.

Others bargained in half, but he lived up to the racial motto of the Remit people and cut directly to the ankle.

Clang——!
At this time, the philistine-looking profiteer Michael casually pulled out a gorgeous scimitar and shook his head:

"Apart from the gold plating and blueing, it's just a pirate's scimitar that's sold out. I'll give it £8."

At this point, the first mate Miles' face had already turned a little blue, and it took great willpower to resist the urge to draw his sword.

Even if he had little knowledge, he knew that this noble collector's knife inlaid with gems was definitely worth more than 8 pounds.

But prices are determined by supply and demand.

Niche luxury goods have completely different prices for different buyers.

He had no idea how much the knife was worth, nor did he know what made it valuable, and he didn't even have the ability to bargain.

With a smile on his face, Chamille held a knife in one hand and deftly took out a jewel necklace from the exquisite silver jewelry box with the other hand.

The silver chain is not surprising, but the large gem on the pendant is a blue with a slightly purple hue, giving it a unique, hazy velvety texture.

His eyes lit up and then quickly receded, shaking his head and saying:
"Iolite necklaces are plentiful near volcanoes. They are worth nothing at all, 3 pounds at most."

Not only the first mate Miles, but the other pirates also had gloomy expressions.

Every piece of trophy here is stained with their blood.

Because of this robbery, they were targeted by the navy and lost the lives of more than half of their companions.

The dead are gone, but the living still hope to live a rich life.

Although the words were different, the visual sense of "being eaten by bugs and bitten by rats, with a bare body and a torn face and a tattered coat" made them break down immediately.

"and many more!"

Just as Chamille was about to pick up another piece of jewelry, Byron, who had been watching coldly from the side, suddenly spoke up and stopped him.

Under the puzzled gazes of a group of pirates, he walked up to the merchant.

She lowered her eyes slightly, glanced at the scimitar in his hand, and corrected him casually:

"It is 85 cm long and weighs 1.2 kg. It is made of white steel, blued, and has a gold guard inlaid with rubies. It is one of the 17 main variations of the Fisher sword.

Craftsman: Thomas Blinka, master swordsmith of Hattings.

Although this is just a collection used to show off wealth, both the craftsmanship and materials have reached a certain extreme level of ordinary objects.

Compared with the extraordinary artifacts with [Cutting Inscriptions] made by [Craftsmen], the only difference is the unique extraordinary ability.

Considering its quality and the reputation of the knife maker, its value should be around 100 pounds.

Even a [Craftsman] would directly recycle weapons of this level, and as a training material for novices to enchant, there would be no problem selling them. "

She looked at the necklace in his hand again and continued to correct him:
“The sapphire on this necklace is not cheap iolite, but the highest quality sapphire!
The weight, clarity and cut are all first-class, weighing 62 carats, and the cutting was done by Candice Boston, a master jeweler from Hattings.

The most valuable thing is that it is a genuine 'cornflower blue', which is known as the highest rating for sapphire color along with 'royal blue'!
If we take it to Florence, the art capital of the Holy Silver Empire, and in this only empire whose national flower is the cornflower, it will surely be sold at a sky-high price.

£800 is a very reasonable price.”

Byron looked at the profiteer Michael, who opened his mouth silently in front of him, with a confident and determined look, and he did not give in.

In his eyes, both this batch of goods and this pirate ship had long been named Lancaster.

His uncle [Mad King] and his father taught him since he was a child that the most unforgivable evil in our territory is tax evasion!

As a noble gentleman, you must be thrifty and manage your household well, and cherish every penny you own as you would your eyes.

That's right, although the money is yours now, sooner or later it will all be ours.

Waste my money, that's a no-no!
