How To Survive as a 10000 Hour Freebie Pirate

Chapter 75

##075

Hegemony in the Middle Sea was held by the Os Empire, a huge country that existed across the sea of the Yule continent.

They are called pagans because the laws of religion are different.

Bennett’s Guild has the next strongest naval power.

It is a group of merchants that has been passed down since ancient times, and is a form of association rather than a state.

Next is the Thrang Empire.

Finally, the sun god Jugyo also had a small fleet.

Looking at it from an overall perspective.

Bennett Guild + Thrang Empire + Vatican

VS

Os Empire.

You can look at it in form.

However, because the Bennett Guild was a group of merchants, they were not on bad terms with the Os Empire.

Rather, they had to trade, so they stayed close afterward.

“hmm… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“It’s okay if you don’t know. I just want Bennett’s Guild, the largest maritime force in the Middle Seas, to hold a large-scale naval exercise. That alone will calm you down for a while.”

That’s true, but there was no reason the Bennett Guild would have to do that for Lian.

The biggest enemy is the Oth Empire, but it’s not that they’re on bad terms.

“We would like to do that for the sire of the Synsenrom Empire, but the cost is prohibitive.”

“yes. I bet it is. Still, we want to give you two benefits.”

At Lian’s words, Milano-jung tilted her head.

“The first is news that is a crisis for the Milano Jung family. It will be too late to react later.”

“We are stably cultivating pearls in the sea. What could be a crisis… … .”

If there is a war in the Apennine Peninsula, there may be some disruption to the farm.

Now, this is the land of the Sinsenrom Empire.

There is no force that can pose a particular threat.

“Pearl mines have been discovered inland. on a grand scale.”

“It’s a pearl inland. Such a thing… no way!”

Pearls were common in ancient times.

At that time, pearls from the sea were more mysterious.

Swoop.

Lian offered Chairman Milano Chung a 10% stake in the mine.

“This… … .”

“It is an ancient way. I said the expression was a mine, but it’s safe to say it’s actually a factory. Given the production volume, the price of pearls will drop by 50% in a few years.”

Milano’s eyes widened at those words.

If the price drops by 50%, the margin drops even more.

“There are ways to reduce the loss.”

“Can I hear your Excellency’s opinion?”

“There is nothing difficult. You can act as a sales agent. After all, even in the Synsenrom Empire, there is no market right now.”

The Milano family could subcontract distribution to the Synsenrom Empire.

If you do well, you will be able to defend up to 70%. You can also earn margin through agency, so you can reduce your losses a lot.

“I will write you a letter of introduction, so send someone to the empress.”

“Still, the Bennett Union is not willing to pay for maritime training… … .”

Even if Milano went well in the pearl farming business, it couldn’t be overflowing with money.

The cost would be astronomical if you gathered close to 100 warships and fired a few rounds at a time.

“Of course, that alone won’t move the Bennett union.”

Even if Congressman Milano Chung is a member of Bennett’s union, he is an individual.

Other than letting him live, the overall Bennett combination doesn’t have a big impact.

“So I prepared this too.”

“hmm?!!!”

Milano’s eyes shook.

Things you can never see yourself.

“New Continent Trade Permit!”

“I would like to entrust the transportation to the Bennett Union.”

The right to 5% of hemp leaves obtained from Nerder.

5% might not seem like a lot, but you may have to go back and forth several times with the Going Missha.

If he did that, he would carry hemp leaves all year round and see all the work.

Of course, the amount was too small for the Bennett Union to handle.

But, what is important to them.

“The road to the new continent has been opened.”

They are being bullied by countries that have colonies.

Of course, their position is still strong with various benefits from the Middle Sea, but their position is shaking as new continents and new sea routes are pioneered.

“That way, you will be able to get the minimum margin rate.”

Not all of the New World rejects the Bennett Union.

There are places that have not been explored. If it wasn’t a big port, one merchant ship was precious.

Even if you do brokerage trade with them, you will be welcomed and you will be able to increase your market share little by little.

Of course, the state would hate it, but there were many things that the state could not help because it was not perfectly centralized.

“The 4% is taken care of by Bennett Union. Please give me half of the net profit. The other half is shipping.”

“So generous… However, 1%… … .”

“I have something else to write about.”

Forage was a specialty of the New World, and was sold at a higher price in the southern regions of the Yul Continent.

If you do well in sales, you can expect better profits.

“At this level, we should be able to move the Bennett combination.”

“Then please. I will be touring the island of Sicily for a week. Will you be ready in the meantime?”

“Don’t worry. dismissal! There is no way we will miss the last chance to advance into the new continent.”

“Oh! Please keep training as secret as possible. Even if the other faction knows, they don’t know where it is.”

“Why… I understand for now.”

Milano-jeong tilted her head, but soon agreed.

What’s important to him is the permit for the hemp leaves.

* * *

Sicily is an island near the southern tip of the Apennine Peninsula.

It’s an island, big enough to build a country.

“It is peaceful.”

The scenery was also beautiful, so wealthy nobles living inland came for a vacation in winter.

The villages that sometimes look like the coast are peaceful, and the ports are dazzling with white materials.

“Looks like it. It’s a great place to rob.”

said the vice-captain.

Itchy body shape.

“Heh heh. But not here. There are better places.”

“Hmm?”

“Pass it. I’m going to rob it very heavily in two days, so get ready.”

Ryan brought a map from one side.

“here. Tunis.”

“what. Isn’t this a cultist area?!”

If you move a little further southwest from the island of Sicily, you will find a port that has been influenced by the Otto Empire.

It was also a place often used by pirates as a port of call.

Incidentally, those pirates are mobilized as the Oth Empire’s navy during wartime.

In other words, a pirate and a warship at the same time.

Although they were private pirates, they did not hesitate to raid merchant ships as well as ports and villages, and proudly carried out the slave trade.

“So you are going. It comes along better than that.”

Lian looked at the radar and confirmed that the mysterious fleet was following.

There are also battleships with a total of 10 ships.

Even if it was Lian, it was difficult to do anything to line up alone.

I don’t know if it’s 1:1, but if it’s 10 ships… … .

“Hria Min.”

“yes! Count. All right!”

She was getting used to the sea too.

Contrary to concerns, there was no sinking into the sea.

I was able to leave it because it was an ironclad ship, but if it was a wooden ship, I would not have been able to leave it because of anxiety.

“Let’s shift. Go in and rest.”

“I can do more… … .”

The reason she was displeased was because she did not know when a battle would break out.

Rian had knowledge of combat from the start, but she only learned the helm.

I couldn’t teach all the manuals.

From nob le mt l. com

Just because you’re good at piloting doesn’t mean you’re good at fighting.

“Look around the ship when you have time. The artillery room is good, the engine room is also good.”

You need to know how the ship operates so you can maneuver it to help you in battle.

I had to make them interact with them whenever I had time like this.

Hria Min’s sociability was not very good.

I think I’m the type who is confident in my head, but can’t do it well in action.

“Speak with the gun room and engine room crew. And make a report out of it. Depending on how sincere you are, I will increase the amount of time you can steer a day.”

“hmm… all right!!”

With those words, she immediately left the mission.

Once I entered the fire room.

“Oh my. why are you so pretty?! what what there… ?! ashamed… … !!”

The first to encounter was Charlotte.

She stopped wiping the small-caliber hemp, then stuck her arm into the hole and wiped it vigorously.

“Cool?! I guess he has no shame! lol.”

Naturally, it made Hriamin take a step back.

‘female… don’t wait First, the engine room… … .’

She moved cautiously up the stairs and further down.

square. two spaces.

bottom of the ship.

The air temperature was high there, as it was part of the engine room.

A noise echoed from far away… … .

crackle. supportive!

I heard an unusual noise somewhere I wasn’t familiar with.

regular noise.

Hria Min naturally moved there as a musician.

“Are you tuning the instrument?”

She stood in front of the door where the sound came from and listened.

support position! direct! support support~!

It was definitely a sound full of noise, but it must be said that it scratches people’s hearts in a strange way.

It’s the tone you’ve been looking for for a long time and that you’ve been wanting.

Of course, the teachers who taught me would have been frightened if they heard it… … .

“Ahh… … .”

She hesitated outside for a while.

Again, because of her personality.

He was bright, enterprising, and adventurous, but had difficulty dealing with people.

Clap!

then the door opens

“It’s a surprise!”

“Aww! what!”

Both the person in the room and Hriamin were surprised.

“sorry. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop… … .”

“yes?! What?”

The person who came out of the room was a woman about her age or a little older.

His hands were covered with oil-stained gloves.

“however… Aren’t you an executive who came as a helmsman?”

“That’s right, but… … .”

“ah. I’m a magician mechanic. If that’s what you’re here for, I’ll fix it right away.”

In fact, she was fixing a broken speaker near the bridge.

Even though he was at the lower end, he was surprisingly good at circuits.

The only peculiar thing was that she had no fingers.

“Then can I watch from the side?”

“yes. You are an executive… Of course you can. If you wait, I’ll bring the accessories right away.”

She ran back.

“A child like that also becomes a pirate.”

Hria Min was also a child, but Going Mishaho, who had a lot of peers his own age, was just amazing.

“By the way, where is the instrument that made that sound earlier?”

She looked around for something that made a noise.

But no matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find it.

It was just a small room full of magic tools.

“You waited long?”

The mechanic hurriedly moved around the room.

The room was small, with a narrow bed barely enough to lie on and a small work shelf.

When two people entered it, it was cramped.

‘Is this a private room?’

A single room was not given to a low-ranking member, but since she was the only woman in the engine room, it was a consideration.

Still, his dexterity was not bad, so he was treated like this.

Of course, the head of the institution was a woman, but she was an executive, so of course she was in solitary confinement.

‘It’s not even half of my room.’

By the way, Hria Min also came in as an executive, so there was a private room.

“sorry. If you feel uncomfortable here, go to the common workroom… … .”

“no. That sound just before that.”

“yes?!”

“Jing~ jing jing~ jing jing.”

“Ahh. That sound made you uncomfortable.”

Hria Min shook his head.

“Not that. I like that sound.”

“yes?!! It was being repaired because of the noise… … .”

“I love that noise!”

It was the moment when Ninedevil was born to terrify everyone.

She said it a long time ago.

It was the nine fingers that created this genre of music.

* * *

Ten warships chasing the Going Misha.

They all sailed slowly with their flags down.

Moonlight! Moonlight!

A tall-looking figure was holding a compass.

A kind of location tracker.

Of course, Ryan knew that.

-west… Captain. Something like this… … .

– Leave it alone. hehehe.

This was possible because the Going Missha had a genius related to communication on board.

“Cardinal. How would you like to deal with it?”

“no. Not far from Sicily yet. There is no need to scratch it and leave a sore.”

However, the Going Missha started to move southwest from Sicily.

“Cardinal!!!”

“What are you thinking? no way… With these infidels!”

The only group on the Yule Continent that allowed contact with the Os Empire was the Bennett Association.

Even hostile countries have to trade with each other… … .

“Isn’t this an opportunity?”

“okay. Maybe we can officially bury it!”

For reference, the northern part of the Middle Sea was the Yule Continental country, and the southern part was the sphere of influence of the great Osu Empire.
