"Ready... ready... change the strings with the wind!"
"Tighten the string!"
"Go down and sail to leeward!"
"Prepare to lower the sail!"
"Oar room, paddle left!"
"Raise the foresail!"
On the slightly undulating sea, Flower sailed slowly along the current, stopping and going, going in circles, or turning. The voice of the captain Kosto, with its own loudspeaker effect, kept ringing throughout the ship, giving various instructions. The twelve sailors were busy controlling the ship.
According to the size and tonnage of Flower, twelve sailors are simply not enough to operate it, and the full configuration is thirty sailors.
The work of thirty people was done by twelve teenagers, who were all newbies. The pressure was understandable. Flower's sailing was also intermittent, and it was always unable to sail smoothly towards the goal.
But anyway.
Under the command and instruction of Kosto, Flower still stayed close to the seaside and sailed toward the north dock area. Half a day later, they successfully reached their destination through a combination of teaching and learning.
This is a rocky beach.
Flower moored in the bay for a short while, as a lunch break, and gave swimming lessons to the sailors.
"The coast is not like people's legend, sea monsters eat people. This is not the living area of sea monsters! Sea monsters live in the deep sea, and you will basically not encounter sea monsters when sailing offshore... Of course, if you are unlucky, you will be eaten by a sea monster while basking on the shore."
Kosto tried to dispel the sailor apprentices' fear of deep water, but his speaking skills were obviously not up to standard, and the sailor apprentices were even more afraid to go into the water.
Swimming on the beach can be stressful for a long time, let alone Deepwater Bay here.
"Captain, we already know how to swim." An apprentice sailor defended in a low voice.
"Can deep water and shallow water be the same? They are absolutely different. You have to overcome your fear of the blue sea water. It will save your life at the critical moment!"
"How could it be? We are on the boat and we will never run into the water for nothing."
"Idiot! When sailing on the sea, waves often roll up sailors and they fall into the sea. If you can't swim, you won't even have time to hold on until rescue!"
"Well, Captain, I'm just here to be a sailor's apprentice. I have no intention of going sailing."
"You have no such intention, why are you here to learn sailing? Do you think I, Kosto, am easy to fool?" Kosto was furious, pointing at the sailor apprentice's nose, and shouted, "I am the captain Flower appointed by the lord, and I will go out to sea for trade for the lord in the future. You will be the first group of sailors! You can fool me, but you dare to fool the lord?"
Sailor apprentices, be submissive.
Suddenly I felt like I was on a pirate ship.
Kosto also gave up his persuasion and threatened directly. "I have been authorized by the lord to be fully responsible for navigation matters. Advisor Flower Town must also cooperate with me. Remember, whoever dares to escape or disobey my orders, I will hand you over to the patrol team of Lord Karl!"
Hearing the name of the patrol team, the teenagers became even more timid.
The lord is indeed noble and inviolable, but they all say that the lord is the embodiment of kindness. They are not afraid, only in awe. But the patrol team is famous - Liszt has always wanted to build the patrol team into a police station where "the police and the people are one family", but it is a pity that there is no hope.
The existence of corporal punishment such as caning is destined to make people fearful.
Karl is even more meticulous in enforcing the regulations to repay the lord's trust in him. Any civilian who makes a mistake will be whipped directly.
He refused to release the water even with a whip.
As a result, everyone's expression changes when they talk about the patrol team.
Seeing the faces of the teenagers, Kosto was very satisfied. After waving the stick, he started to wave the carrot. "Don't be afraid of the sea. The sea is the same as the land. If we can farm on the land, we can sail on the sea. Going to sea is the most correct decision for you. There is endless wealth overseas, and there are also women with super big breasts and super big butts!"
"Really... are there really women with big butts?" A teenager overcame his fear and swallowed.
"Of course, I once went to an island where the war had just ended. The women stood in a row and everyone picked. I picked the woman with the biggest butt..." Kosto said in a nostalgic tone.
"What happened next, Captain?"
"Later?"
"Yes, Captain, what about you and that big ass?"
"Later." Kosto licked his lips, "Then I gave her three Copper Coin. In fact, she only needed two Copper Coin to spend the night comfortably, but I gave her one more Copper Coin. That towering mountain gave me an unparalleled experience. I swear, it can stuff your head inside and suffocate!"
Kosto made a circle with his hand.
Very large circle.
The teenagers were stunned by how huge it was.
Gudong.
Gudong.
The teenagers swallowed their saliva one after another.
"Okay, the break is over, it's time for class, boys! If you want to Waves a turbulent woman, you must study hard according to my requirements. When you become a qualified sailor, you can spend two Copper Coin and have a wonderful night! Now, dive and swim!"
The teenagers immediately overcame their fear.
He screamed and threw himself into the sea.
Kosto took out a wooden wine bottle from his arms, removed the stopper, and took a delicious sip - he understood what these teenagers wanted, after all, he was young too.
After taking a sip of wine, he returned to the captain's cabin and carefully took out a one-meter-long cylinder from the box - this was the telescope sent by the lord's servant yesterday. The lord assigned his telescope to Flower. It was this telescope that allowed him to understand the lord's views on navigation!
"He longs for the sea more than any nobleman!" Kosto feels that his future is bright. A nobleman who yearns for the sea will undoubtedly support his voyage.
It was precisely because of this that he had the confidence to go to the administrative office and negotiate with consultant Gortai to get benefits.
Holding the telescope, he walked to the deck.
To him, the swaying deck was more stable than the land. He picked up the telescope and began to look into the distance. The distant scenery seemed to suddenly come to him.
A wonderful transformation, it feels incredible.
"Only a noble noble like the Lord can make such incredible items!"
He looked at the sea level in the distance for a while, then at the thick smoke of the Thorn Ridge in the distance, then at a few seabirds walking on the rocky beach, and then at the steep rocky mountains on the shore.
suddenly.
He frowned slightly and saw that there seemed to be a cave on the cliff washed by the sea on the Rock mountain range. "Cave? The mountains here are not high. Are there caves? What kind of cave could it be? There seemed to be a seabird flying out of the cave just now. Is there a seabird?"
The guillemot is a gull-like seabird that builds nests on cliffs near the sea. Its eggs are very popular among nobles.
Some nobles would even arrange for serfs to risk their lives to collect sea turtle eggs.
"Guinea pig eggs are an indispensable delicacy on the nobles' table. If I discover the place where the guillemots nest collectively and contribute it to the lord, the lord will be very happy and reward me heavily!" He felt himself getting excited, "This way I will have money to attract more sailor apprentices!"
