Personality V: I will save everything

Nearly half a month has passed since everyone sailed on the sea...

At first, the three Will brothers were very excited, but when the novelty wore off, they began to feel bored.

Every room and every corner in the cabin has been explored by them, and they have nothing new to play with.

Now, apart from spending time with Mr. Norton on the deck to bask in the sun during the day, they spent most of the rest of the time with Kurt, listening to Kurt's stories.

Of course, Kurt was very happy to tell the story to the three Will brothers. He listened carefully, indulged in it, and never questioned the logic of the story. Of course, Kurt welcomed the audience very much.

As for Norton, his expression has been: ╭( ?_?)╮ since he got on the ship.

Moreover, he has been staying on the deck, not basking in the sun. If you pay a little attention, you can find that he is actually looking at the direction of the sea horizon. He has been looking forward to meeting a little girl surrounded by the beach soon. island so he could find the shells.

To be honest, at first Jose Baden thought that Norton was looking for shells because he wanted the pearls inside the shells, so he specially found a gathering place of sea clams, cast a net, and caught a lot of them containing Pearl sea clams, but when he gave these sea clams to Norton, Norton's expression clearly said: "These are not the things he wants" (?? _ ??).

Moreover, Norton's always low mood made Natasha and Juke very worried about him.

Of course they were very worried, because this kid Norton didn't even want any money! ! !

At that time, Jose Baden caught so many sea clams that everyone pried open the sea clams and searched for the pearls inside the clam meat. However, Norton did not join them at all at that time. He was still lying on the railing and looking at the direction of the sea horizon. .

Seeing Norton's low mood all the time, Jose Baden didn't know whether to say something or not, because he was afraid that Norton would jump into the sea if he said it.

Because...there were actually no islands on their sailing route this time.

Seeing Norton wanting to search for shells on the beach so much, Jose Baden swore that even if he had to delay his flight, he would find an island so that Norton could look for the shells he wanted.

"Eat something." Suddenly, Natasha broke into Jose Baden's sight.

Natasha held the grilled sea clam meat in her hand and handed it to Jose Baden and Norton.

Having said that, Natasha is now very popular with the crew on the ship, not only because she is a beautiful lady, but also because of her neither humble nor overbearing attitude.

The sailors on the ship have never seen a nobleman who is willing to accompany them to deal with the cargo, especially a woman.

Moreover, they originally pried open those sea clams, took away the pearls inside, and then directly threw the excess sea clam shells and sea clam meat back into the sea.

They were wasting it until the lady named Natasha told them that the clam meat was edible.

And what shocked the sailors the most at that time was that the noble lady named Natasha actually set up a rack and grilled clams on the rack.

The mood of the sailors at that time can simply be described as unbelievable. It is impossible to know that those noble ladies on the shore who wanted to turn their noses to the sky would allow themselves to do such a derogatory thing.

Not to mention that Ms. Natasha also shared the roasted sea clam meat with them.

After this incident, Natasha became very popular among the sailors on the ship.

Those rough guys who only know how to sail don't know how to express their gratitude to a beautiful lady. They can only do their best to improve Natasha's sailing experience.

such as:

While Natasha was basking in the sun and enjoying the sea breeze on the deck, help her move a more comfortable chair.

Or when Natasha was going up or down the stairs, she would give way as much as possible and temporarily put down the goods she needed to carry up or down to prevent her from touching her.

Every time when the sailors did these things, Natasha would smile and thank him, and her reputation among the sailors would become higher.

All in all, everyone’s sailing experience at sea was pretty good.

Except for a small incident that happened in the middle...

You know, Muro brought his wild boar on board the ship. It was okay at first, but until halfway, a sailor with a bad mouth made a joke to him.

"You wild boar, isn't this the food reserve you brought?" That's what the sailor said at that time.

then……

Ah...then, there was no more, and then he was beaten up by Muro.

In fact, if Muro was still in the circus, he would definitely not dare to do such a thing, but after all, it was already ten years ago, and a lot can change in ten years.

With the joint efforts of everyone in the manor, Muro's character is no longer as cowardly as before.

So... the sailor was beaten quite badly by him.

Of course, this incident also alarmed the captain Jose Baden.

Under the circumstances, the sailors asked Muro to give them a reasonable explanation.

After all, in the eyes of those sailors, wasn't it just a joke? ! As for beating people so badly? !

At that time, Jose Baden didn't know how to appease the angry emotions of the sailors, because he didn't know Muro very well.

In the end, Natasha, who had a relatively high reputation among the sailors, came forward to calm the matter.

Natasha explained to the sailors at the time:

She told the sailors that Muro had lost his parents since he was a child. He had grown up with the wild boar. In Muro's eyes, the wild boar was his family, so the sailor made such a joke. Only in the future will Muro beat him up.

Naturally, Natasha did not tell what happened to Muro in the circus. She just told the sailors how important the wild boar was to Muro.

Finally, after Natasha's explanation and Captain Jose Baden's pressure, the matter finally passed calmly.

However, although the matter has passed, the sailors always distanced themselves from Muro.

In this regard, Muro was happy to be at ease. He stayed in the room with his wild boar and rarely went out.

...............

The days of sailing on the sea were actually not long ago. Soon Norton, who had been paying attention to the horizon, discovered that land was approaching.

He quickly ran to the front of the ship and leaned half of his body out, causing the sailor standing near him to immediately grab his clothes to prevent him from falling.

But unfortunately, when the piece of land got closer, Norton was disappointed to find that it was not a small island, but an entire continent, and its coastline was the same as the original port, without a grain of sand. , let alone a shell.

Norton: (?_?)

After receiving Norton's melancholy and resentful eyes, Jose Baden shrank his neck subconsciously. He didn't want to... He originally just thought that Norton wanted the pearl, and he also helped him during the voyage. He caught a big net of sea clams, but who knew he only wanted their shells, not the pearls! ! ≥﹏≤

"Stop it, Norton, be happy. We are just here to play. Don't be so resentful. We will search with you on the coastline later. We will find shells." Qiu Ke helped Jose Ba from behind. Declare the situation.

Speaking of which, the manor owner's decision to divert attention was really correct. After sailing on the sea for a period of time, Qiu Ke's condition improved significantly. Although he was still very thin, at least he didn't look scary. That's the point.

"Hmph! ＜(｀^′)＞" This is Norton's current attitude towards Jose Baden. Generally speaking, he just ignores him and is very angry.

But soon, Norton could no longer be angry. To be precise, his attention was attracted by the cruel scene that happened next.

He saw several Indians falling to the ground, while the North Americans on the side were beating them with whips, not treating them as human beings at all.

What's even more exaggerated is that this is a port with a lot of people, and such things happen nearby. So how many more cruel things are happening deeper in unknown places?

Norton's eyes kept looking over there. He didn't know how to react.

Jose Baden silently walked behind Norton, stretched out his hand to cover Norton's eyes, "Don't look." Jose Baden said this, and then grabbed Norton's arm with his other hand and pulled him Pull to the side.

Jose Baden didn't want to and couldn't control it, or in other words, as a navigator and the first mate of a ship, how could he not know that these things were happening?

To put it bluntly, why didn't Jose Baden's family start out by doing this kind of business? It is the very famous slave buying and selling movement in history.

Who now looks at the atrocities committed by North Americans against Indians? Jose Baden doesn't feel anything at all, because in his mind, this is normal.

He would take Norton away just because he thought this behavior was more violent. He just didn't want to dirty the eyes of his "family", so he took him away.

If Jose Baden did this, he would probably pick up a pistol and shoot them directly in the head instead of beating them to death with a whip, because it would be too violent.

"Let's go, I've made a reservation in advance for a good hotel." Jose Baden turned Norton's head to the other side while trying to lead the way.

But through the fingers of Jose Baden, Norton still looked at those poor Indians, one of whom was even just a little girl.

...............

Jose Baden brought everyone to the hotel he prepared, because the hotel was opened near the port, and in order to receive the sailors who came from afar with all kinds of priceless goods, this hotel The hotel is very resplendent.

To sum it up in one sentence, it seems very expensive.

Of course, this summary is just for ordinary people, everyone in the manor and Jose Baden, of course they don't care about the money.

After settling into his room, Norton looked out the window at the street below.

The North Americans on the street were all happily living their own lives, but the more they did this, the more Norton would think of the Indians he saw when he just got off the ship.

"They will die..." Norton's words were affirmative, because he was sure that those Indians would not survive.

Norton just saw a strange ornament on the wall of the hotel lobby.

When he got closer and pushed aside the feathers and strange hairs, he discovered that they were bones, and they were human skulls.

"This is made of the skulls of those lowly Indians~" This is what the waitress said to him at the time. Her tone even said that it was just an ordinary wooden board.

"Ugh..." Thinking of this, Norton almost vomited.

He covered his mouth desperately, but his stomach was still churning.

"Hmm... Gulu gulu..." He picked up the water glass prepared in the room and drank it down. After several large glasses of water, he finally suppressed the nausea that was rising in his stomach.

Norton sat dejectedly on the edge of the bed. He didn't know what he should do in this situation.

Sudden! Norton has decided!

.....................

"Hahaha... I heard you right, you want to buy this lowly thing." The North American in front of him looked up and laughed, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.

In fact, in the eyes of this group of North Americans, this is indeed the most ridiculous joke in the world. A British man from afar came to North America just to buy a few Indians? !

The North American in front of me finally laughed enough and said that he would never sell it again.

At the same time, he thought that the British man in front of him just didn't know the policies of North America.

"Every Indian scalp you cut off could be exchanged for a considerable income."

So the North American in front of him said that it was impossible for him to sell it. The Indian himself could give him a lot of income, so why would he sell it?

Unless the British man in front of him could give him a price he couldn't refuse.

But this is very strange. The British man in front of him actually wants to spend a big price to do a business with him that is destined to lose money.

Norton looked at the North Americans in front of him expressionlessly, laughing and discussing loudly.

Norton actually didn't understand why he did this, he couldn't even understand why he was here.

Maybe it's because Norton really can't stand the torture of his own conscience, although for Norton himself, this conscience comes out of nowhere.

None of this has anything to do with him, but he still wants to take action...

"Tell me, how much do you plan to pay?" asked the North American in front of him, although he wanted to see how much the British man was willing to pay to buy this business that was destined to lose money.

"A stone," Norton replied.

Hearing the British in front of them say this, the North Americans were even stunned, but they soon realized it. After a long time, it turned out that the British just wanted to come and laugh at these Indians. The value of a person is not as good as a stone.

But soon, Norton's actions dispelled their original ridiculous thoughts.

Norton took out a diamond larger than his fist from the purse he carried.

The light emitted by the diamond attracted North Americans from the entire street.

"Wow... are you sure?" The North American who was doing business with Norton was completely stunned. With such a big diamond, he could buy a large piece of land in North America, but he had to use it to buy a few... Indians.

"Yes, I'm sure." In fact, to Norton, this diamond was nothing at all, it was just his "lunch".

As we all know, eating diamonds is Norton's way of becoming "fool's gold."

But sometimes Norton will eat diamonds directly as food, for no other reason than to satisfy his desire for money. After all, eating those valuable things can satisfy him well.

Norton tossed the diamond gently into the hands of the North American people in front of him.

"The deal is done?" Norton raised his eyebrows.
