After calling out the first toast, Fang Senyan raised his wine glass again and shouted: "May God bless his wife and daughter in good health.
This toast has not been heard of by these people, and the content seems to contradict the previous curse, but Fang Senyan claims to be from the far East, for Europe, no matter what the impression of the East is, there has always been a veil of mystery, so they speculate that it should be a unique custom of the East, in order to show their broad-mindedness, but there is no one who responds to this sentence.
But Fang Senyan took a big sip of wine and then raised his glass and shouted: "May God Bring Me to His House" As soon as Fang Senyan shouted out these words, most of them were stunned, and then they realized the deep meaning of it, laughed wildly, and raised their cups and shouted: "May God bless his wife and daughter in good health, and may God bring me to his house" After Fang Senyan's contrivedness, he smoothly integrated into the atmosphere of this bar.
However, when he seriously asked these people how they could go to the three large ships in the harbor to be sailors, they were met with merciless ridicule.
It turns out that at this time, these three ships have become legends on the sea, every time they go out, they return with a full load, in popular language, it is the best job that can be reported after eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling after work from ten to four to four droughts and floods, and resting for two hours at noon, and those who want to go there to be sailors can be said to be eager to go through fierce competition, which is more intense than 30 years ago when he was admitted to become a glorious worker, peasant and soldier college student, and more exaggerated than 30 years later to be admitted to the national civil service.
For a sailor like Fang Senyan who only had potential but was not well-known, it was simply an impossible task.
After paying the price of five glasses of rum, Fang Senyan finally understood that he still had two paths to take, the first way was to find a little-known pirate ship to mix in, and wait until he had done something to achieve something, and then slowly try to enter the three legendary pirate ships.
The second way is to be good.
Of course, the reference here does not mean that sex workers go to the XX famous gynecology hospital for a xxx repair surgery and then find a pure love boss to marry, but to join the official fleet------ to be more precise, it means to go to the two British warships south of the port of Tutuga to be a sailor.
When Fang Senyan first entered this world, if he could look back, he could see the flags of these two warships fluttering in the sea breeze.
Choosing the first path is undoubtedly full of dangers and challenges, but of course there will be more opportunities.
As for the second path, Fang Senyan also guessed from the descriptions of these pirates: a fixed salary, a rigid life, relatively small risks but equally few opportunities.
Fang Senyan is not a person who keeps to himself, and more importantly, from a small point of view, in the entire world of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Britain's national fleet has always appeared in a tragic role, and in Plus 4, it was even completely suppressed by Spain's Invincible Armada.
In terms of the general trend, if you make a mistake at the beginning, it is likely that you will be more passive in the future, and you will have to work ten times and a hundred times to enter the core plot.
Therefore, from a short-term perspective, choosing a national fleet is a good behavior with little risk and good reward, but from a long-term perspective, it is relatively a lot of loss.
When he had made up his mind in his mind, he did not hesitate any longer.
The scar Henry in front of him also looked quite bold, so Fang Senyan bluntly asked him to help recommend a ship that lacked manpower, saying that he was willing to slowly earn some travel expenses, and then think of a way to go home.
After listening to Fang Senyan's request, Scar Henry laughed and said: "Mariner Rock, you really want to get on the ship and do things" Fang Senyan smiled bitterly: "I have no way out now, what else can I do but do my old job" Scar Henry glanced at Fang Senyan deeply, touched his chin and muttered: "We don't have a lot of odd jobs on our ship, but we have to raise and lower the sails and scrub the deck, and of course we can't drop when it's time to pick up a knife.
However, although the work is a bit harder, our Captain Armand is quite generous, I don't know if you want to try it------ but I nod my head in this matter, and anyone who gets on the ship has to pass the test according to the old rules. “ Fang Senyan's heart moved when he heard the word "Armand", this guy seems to have appeared in the movie plot of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, and he also appeared as one of the seven pirate kings of the Black Sea, specializing in being active on the Black Sea, commanding Islamic pirates to loot Christian trade ships, and successfully united with the Ultraman Empire and controlled all regions from Morocco to Turkey.
At this time, this guy has not yet made a career.
But there is no doubt that at this time, if you can go to sea with a guy who can be equal to Jacks Palo Barbossa in the future, of course, all kinds of opportunities will be much greater.
"I'm willing to try and pass the test."
Fang Senyan stood up and said categorically.
In fact, he also knew very well in his heart that if he hadn't won Scar Henry's favor in two things, breaking his wrists and inviting him to drink, then with his little charm, he really wouldn't have had the opportunity to join the "Bells and Wine Glasses" pirate ship.
Scar Henry and Made, who was behind him, glanced at each other, and an unknown mysterious smile appeared on their faces.
Several pirates waiting for the bar next to him saw that Fang Senyan had successfully "applied", and they also accosted and squeezed over, but they were ruthlessly rejected.
Half an hour later, Fang Senyan was standing on the deck of the "Bell and Wine Cup".
It was a three-masted galleon in the North Sea, between medium and large, with a slender hull painted with wide stripes of gray and dark blue, a high mast hung with Latin sails carefully sewn from tarpaulin warp and weft, dozens of gray thick sail ropes intertwined in the sunset, like a spider's web, there was a feeling of catching everything, and a few white seagulls with flirtatious claws still on the empty lookout.
The bumping horns of the bow of the ship rise high, reminiscent of the protruding tip of a unicorn's head.
The deck is made of slope planks that have grown for at least thirty years, providing considerable protection while reducing the chance of being ignited by fire, and its surface is scrubbed fairly clean, indicating that Scar Henry is at least a good first mate.
Because a clean deck is not only a visual and sensory pleasure, but more importantly, details determine success or failure, and it is inevitable that the boat will be violently bumped and swayed in the middle of the sea, and the dirty deck surface will double the chance of you falling, which is definitely a nightmare start, and even a serious accident in the middle of the sea if the consequences are serious.
There was no doubt that Scar Henry caused a small stir when he brought Fang Senyan back to the ship.
This caused the entire pirate ship to climb up lazily and welcome the unfamiliar face to board the ship in the form of onlookers, these guys in tattered variegated clothes, with swords and knives at their waists, lazily scattered all over the deck, with their hands clasped in front of their chests, looking up and down with an intriguing eye.
"God, you let a damn stranger defile our deck without the captain's consent, Made, you fool, if you immediately get down on your knees and apologize and give me your axe, then I can act as if none of this happened."
The man who spoke had just stepped out of the cabin, a guy with a visor felt hat with two white feathers stuck in it, and if it weren't for his dark skin and deep wrinkles, he would have had a bit of an aristocratic appearance.
And Fang Senyan even noticed that Ma De, who was very rude when he spoke, involuntarily shrank back, obviously this person had considerable power on the ship.
Scar Henry stood up at this time, and said in a loud voice: "Mr.
Charles, as the first mate of the bell and glass, I think I have the authority to make adjustments to what is wrong on the ship, and your duty is to get everyone exactly where they should go, and that's it."
Charles was suffocated by Scar Henry, but said forcefully: "Only the great Captain Armand had the authority to appoint the crew directly.
You can only recommend it, unless he can pass the test of convention, I will never approve of such a stranger boarding the bell and the wine glass will also suffer an inexplicable curse."
The last sentence caused a large group of exclamations, and Fang Senyan, as a senior crew member, had already made things very clear by watching from the sidelines at this time.
He was clearly caught up in a whirlpool of power struggles.
Here we have to talk about the main components of the pirate ships of this era: First of all, the captain is the commander-in-chief of the whole ship, the main decision-maker, the highest danger, can manage everything in an emergency, but usually does not take care of anything.
The first mate can be understood as a housekeeper: in charge of internal affairs, assigning manpower, eating, drinking, lazing and sleeping, in charge of goods [to calculate the center of gravity of the cargo, the stability of the ship, but also to distribute the goods, the simple explanation is that you can't load the goods that arrive at the port first, as well as the type of goods, you can't pack tea with fruits, once the fruit breathes back, the tea is finished; Rubber and oil drums are not good, in case of oil leakage, if the general cargo ship is loaded with dozens or hundreds of goods at a time, of course, there is no good first mate.

Finally, there are the characteristic characters of this era: the navigator: at this time, there was no radar, and only the stars, the compass, and the weather could be relied on to locate the ship at sea.
Drawing routes, nautical charts, etc., requires a great deal of experience and expertise.
The navigator is like the eyes of the ship, guiding the right direction, and at the same time, because of the high level of culture, they will also work as a priest and missionary, talk to the pirates who feel lonely and afraid, solve their mental problems, and spread the faith to the primitive inhabitants
