I really don't want to be the pirate king
Chapter 8: Rewards and Undercurrents
Aaron's recovery ability is extremely good. After resting at home for seven days, the injury was almost fully recovered. The band was removed and the wound healed, but some scars were left.
But he did not work immediately. He took this opportunity to rest for three more days before returning to the shipyard.
"The attack that happened not long ago was very dangerous, especially the heavy gunner Foreman, who was a very cruel person."
Hamid stood in front of the crowd and said: "But our shipwrights at Huntingdon Shipyard are not lambs to be slaughtered. We not only defeated the Forman Pirates, but also captured their cadres, so we deserve to be rewarded." As a reward, everyone can get a reward of 100 million Baileys."
His words made the shipwrights a little excited. One million beli is already two to three months' salary.
"Among these people, Aaron made the greatest contribution. He single-handedly defeated Foreman, helped defeat the pirate group, and foiled the enemy's conspiracy. He can be said to be the biggest contributor to this battle."
Hamid looked at the tall young man in the crowd and said with a smile: "So this time the shipyard decided to reward him with 500 million beli."
"Without Aaron, we would all be in trouble this time."
Steward Wilson said with a smile: "He should be given a generous reward."
"Brother Aaron can kill Foreman by himself. It's really amazing."
16-year-old Neil said with a smile, "I support this decision."
The people at the shipyard were filled with gratitude for Aaron. Without him, they would have been caught at sea.
"Not only that……"
Hamid added: "Forman's bounty is 1000 million Baileys, which has been handed over to the Navy for redemption, and also given to Aaron, totaling 1000 Baileys. This is the silver note of the Silver Crown Chamber of Commerce. .”
1000 million 500 million Baileys?
When Aaron heard this number, although he was not very interested in money, he was a little excited. With his monthly salary of 30 beli, he could probably save about 15 beli every month.
Fifteen million beli would take eight to ten years to save, which is a huge amount of money.
"Thank you Mr. Hamid."
Aaron walked up and took the silver note. With this note, he could go to the Silver Crown Chamber of Commerce to directly withdraw the deposit inside.
"This is what you deserve!"
Hamid patted him on the shoulder, and then said: "Not only that, Aaron, your salary will also be increased, to 40 Baileys per month."
40 beli a month has reached the income level of a senior worker in the factory. Originally, Aaron would have to work for ten or eight years before he could earn this income based on his meritorious service at the age of about 30.
With a reward of 500 million yuan and an increase in salary, Aaron's harvest this time was very generous, which made him very happy.
"so……"
Robin looked at the large number of items Aaron brought back and said, "Brother Aaron bought so many things after he got the reward?"
"Ah."
Aaron took a paper bag, handed it to Robin, and said, "I also bought you some clothes to see if you like it."
"Thank you."
Robin took the paper bag and took out the clothes. He found a dark blue skirt and a white knitted collar. The material was high-quality and the style was beautiful.
Robin picked up the clothes and compared them on his body. He liked the clothes very much, and then asked with some worry: "But my clothes are women's. If you buy clothes for me, will it make people suspect that there are other people in the family?" ?”
"Don't worry, I found a store I don't frequent often and told the seller that I wanted to give my cousin clothes. After describing the size, she recommended me."
Aaron smiled and said: "And it's been so long, no one will pay attention to me."
"I can rest assured that."
Robin hugged the skirt with a happy smile on his face, "Thank you, brother Aaron."
"No need to thank you."
Aaron rubbed Robin's head and said, "If you need anything, you can tell me. We are very rich now."
"That……"
Robin licked his lips and asked cautiously: "Can you buy me a cake? Not too sweet."
She hadn't had cake in a long time. The last time she had it was at O'Hara, where Dr. Cloba bought it for her.
I didn’t like eating it when I was in O’Hara, but after I left and was traveling around, I really missed the taste of cake.
"no problem."
Aaron smiled and said, "I'll bring it back when I come back tomorrow. Is there anything else?"
"I……"
Robin hesitated and said, "I also want a history book."
"no problem."
Aaron agreed, "I will go to the bookstore tomorrow and bring it back to you then."
. . .
At the port of the town of Stadt, a sea ship slowly arrived at the port. The deck was lowered, and a man wearing a top hat, a windbreaker and a suitcase stepped out.
The man was about 1.9 meters tall, with a slender body and a handsome face under the hat, but his eyes had a cold look.
He stepped on the ground, stood still, looked around, determined his direction, and walked towards the distance.
At this time, a young man in plain clothes ran towards this side. When he came not far away, he accelerated his speed and bumped into his body.
At the moment of physical contact, the boy's hand reached out and touched his pocket.
The young man is a thief active in the port. He dare not steal from locals because he was beaten badly when he stole from the wrong people several times. So now he only steals from outsiders, targeting rich people who are well-dressed.
He strikes fast and hard, and has a strong stealing ability. He is somewhat famous among these half-grown children.
As the man with the suitcase stepped off the boat, he noticed his bulging pockets and approached him.
But the moment his hand touched the pocket, he suddenly felt severe pain in his wrist. He saw that his forearm had been broken, the arm bones were shattered, and only the skin was left connected, and the palm of his hand hung limply.
"what!"
The young man let out a cry of pain, attracting the attention of the people around him, who all gathered around him.
The man, taking advantage of this opportunity, walked into the crowd and walked quickly towards the distance.
He took out a piece of paper and kept asking others. He came to a house, walked up the steps and knocked on the door.
Ta-ta, tap, tap-ta.
The sound sounded rhythmically, and after a while the door opened, and a middle-aged man appeared inside and welcomed him in.
"Mr. Edwin, you are tired from the journey. Please take a rest first."
The middle-aged man took the hat and said, "Your room is ready."
"I'm not here to rest."
Edwin pulled down the windbreaker and handed it to him. Underneath was a strong figure holding up the shirt. As he walked inside, he asked, "Benson, are you ready for the intelligence I asked you to collect?"
"Ready."
Benson took the windbreaker, hung it on the hanger, and then said: "The person who killed your brother was a shipwright named Aaron. He was 20 years old and was an adopted orphan. However, his adoptive father died four years ago. , now he is the only one left, living in a house in the West District, and the address has been obtained."
"Live alone? This way you can avoid killing too many people."
Edwin nodded and asked again: "Where are the weapons?"
"A suitable katana has been prepared for you."
Benson said: "If you want it, you can give it to the adults at any time."
"very good."
Edwin raised his head and showed a guilty face, "Although my idiot brother chose to become a pirate, but he died, my biological brother still has to avenge him."
But he did not work immediately. He took this opportunity to rest for three more days before returning to the shipyard.
"The attack that happened not long ago was very dangerous, especially the heavy gunner Foreman, who was a very cruel person."
Hamid stood in front of the crowd and said: "But our shipwrights at Huntingdon Shipyard are not lambs to be slaughtered. We not only defeated the Forman Pirates, but also captured their cadres, so we deserve to be rewarded." As a reward, everyone can get a reward of 100 million Baileys."
