Chapter 854: Mirroring a cat and imitating a tiger
In the Pirate Bay Palace, in a certain stone room, the morning light awakened the whole world, and the Royal Council of the new day was held as scheduled. However, compared to other human principalities in the Augu continent, the Pirate Bay Royal Council seemed a bit childish, and it could even be said that it was
Plant and play house.
Although the stone sculptures carved all over the wall are extremely exquisite, when put together, they are stubborn and nondescript. The gods and the old gods have become neighbors, and the words spoken by the Holy Text are actually the language of the elves and the trolls.
The picture scroll ranks before the orcs.
If Christine were here, she would probably go berserk. As a serious advocate of etiquette, Christine's way of dealing with this situation was to destroy it with her own hands.
But no one in the Pirate Bay seemed to care. At least the three Pirate Bay ministers who were in the stone room at the moment had no objection to this, and were instead proud of it.
"The new order arrived yesterday, but this time the requirements seem a bit harsh, as if the other party has seen through our tricks."
"If we cannot make huge profits between the Principality of Sayel and Qianliu Island, then this request is tantamount to a servant paying tribute to his master, and it is also the kind of behavior in which the return cannot meet the expenses."
"Are those idiots in the Augu continent a little too fanciful? You must know that what our Pirate Bay really relies on is not the Principality of Shayulu, but the dwarves."
"So I personally think that this trip to Ogu should still go to Qianliu Island first. Gold coins are everything, and verbal promises are nothing more than the jellyfish in the Cold Halberd Sea. Although they are beautiful, they are worthless."
Wilhelm is the financial officer and treasure hunter of Pirate Bay. He was originally the first mate of a certain pirate group. He is not only acrimonious, but also likes to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers.
It is precisely because of this character that he not only ended up involving his captain, but was also hunted down by a certain force into the Cold Halberd Sea. During the half month he was captured, he not only relied on his eloquence to return to the throne again,
He gained freedom and even became the right-hand man of the new captain. But late one night, Wilhelm poisoned everyone and then followed the ocean current to Pirate Bay.
Although his strength is mediocre, his mind is different from ordinary people, and he likes to control the overall situation. Therefore, he eventually became the financial officer of The Pirate Bay, assisting Isaac "with all his heart" while trying to replace him.
It's just that compared to managing a pirate ship, managing the Pirate Bay treasury is more difficult. The confusing accounts are annoying, and the current situation of often making ends meet is difficult to explain to Isaac.
Wilhelm regarded this as a kind of experience and secretly asserted that as long as he was perfectly qualified for the position of financial officer, he would be able to completely replace Isaac and become the new master of the Pirate Bay in the future.
"Be careful what you say. If your words are heard by Mother Freya, it will probably be equivalent to reaching the ears of Grand Duke Shayeru. I don't need to tell you the consequences. You will at least be quartered by five horses."
"The Lord of Charybdis Vortex seems to dislike pirates, so our route has never been able to extend to the Elven Continent and the Principality of Floy."
"In this case, The Pirate Bay can only choose to conduct trade with the Principality of Shayulu, and the other party is willing to provide reciprocal protection."
"As for the so-called 'dwarf allies', I think it's just a joke. Everything is based on interests, and only interests are the strongest ties."
"So instead of wasting time on Shayul orders every day, it is better to recruit more high-level professionals to strengthen the strength of The Pirate Bay."
Rudolf, the commander of Pirate Bay, is a mysterious man who wears a mask all day long. He was also a pirate many years ago, and he also arrived at the dream land, Charybdis Vortex.
However, it happened that the masters of the mermaid tribe were patrolling the Cold Halberd Sea, so the pirate ship Rudolph was on was instantly sunk, and half of his face was finally torn off.
The seawater eroded the wound, and the wound gradually turned white and rotted. Maggots were parasitized in the rotten flesh, and those maggots eventually became Rudolph's food.
Finally, he arrived at Pirate Bay and became the commander with his strength as a swordsman. His gratitude to the Isaac family is beyond words, and he can only express his gratitude by working hard.
Therefore, he can be said to be the most meticulous person in this imperial meeting, and he is also the sworn enemy of Finance Officer Wilhelm, because the two have very different ideas.
But at the same time, he had to admit that given the current situation in Pirate Bay, becoming the eagle dog of the Principality of Shayalu was the best choice. It might be shameful for the world to swallow one's anger, but only by surviving would he have a chance to make a comeback, or even completely compete with the opponent. Rudolf didn't like Finance Officer Wilhelm's style, but he also admitted that what he said was true, and The Pirate Bay was in such an embarrassing state.
However, Rudolph still had a backup plan. At least Bailey, the Divine Blessing Knight, admitted that he would help Pirate Bay once, no matter who the person he wanted to kill was.
Compared with those foreign enemies, Rudolf always felt that this promise would eventually fall on his own people, and there was even a high probability that it would be realized on Finance Officer Wilhelm.
But before that, Rudolph was unwilling to break up with the other party. Because no matter what, even if the other party's ability to manage property could not be called exquisite, it was unmatched by anyone in the entire Pirate Bay.
"The only topic of today's imperial meeting is this order from the Principality of Shayel. As for the personal grudges between the two of you, I have no interest in knowing about it, and I don't have the time to get involved."
"The conclusion is actually self-evident, because no matter how much we resist, we cannot directly reject this order. Because the Principality of Shayeru is one of the few trading partners of The Pirate Bay."
"So no matter how bad the other party's attitude is this time, The Pirate Bay must abide by it. It's just to avoid Qianliu Island. It means losing thousands of gold coins. The Pirate Bay can still bear this price."
"Instead of debating here whether we should compromise with the Principality of Shayel, we should find a way to reach the Sun-Chasing Hills where the Trolls live as soon as possible and establish friendship with those foreign races."
"Because only in that way can The Pirate Bay fundamentally break away from the shackles of the Principality of Shayul and truly have a chance to become the overlord."
"But before that, we can only choose to swallow our anger and never rashly violate the will of the Principality of Shayulu, which may even affect the friendship with the dwarves."
Maldini, the governor of the Pirate Bay, Golden Hook. Although he is usually cruel and tyrannical, he is a thoughtful person. And compared to the passionate commander Rudolf, he is more suitable for managing the Pirate Bay. That kind of
The vision is no less than that of any minister of the Principality of Augu, and it is the insight that can truly revitalize the Pirate Bay.
"Wilhelm, put away your hypocrisy. As long as I am the governor of The Pirate Bay, those ideas of yours will never come true!"
"Rudolf, if you are just a fool, get out of this stone room as soon as possible and save me from wasting my words, because a fool only deserves to live!"
Consul Maldini first took a sip of ale, and then glanced at the two of them coldly. As Isaac's only surviving pirate partner, he felt there was no reason to betray, let alone allow this chaos to quietly change.
Looking for a balance in the panic, his bottom line is that the Pirate Bay is not captured by a certain force. That's why Maldini is so angry, not only angry about the increasing incompetence of the old captain Isaac, but also angry about the two bugs in front of him.
The golden hook on his left hand can be lost to Isaac, or it can be used to pierce the opponent's throat. Pirates are pirates, and the only reason to choose to stay is only because of hope, not old feelings.
