Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 157: Island appointment

Five days were neither long nor short, and soon passed. Soon Charles, covered in gauze, was able to walk slowly on the sand to bask in the sun.

But every time he walked out, Charles always felt that his first officer looked at him strangely.

"Captain, this is normal. If someone else wears the same clothes as me every day, I will be very upset." Dip, who handed him coconut milk, said in a low voice.

"Don't mention him, how are you doing?" Charles asked with his back in the shade of the tree.

"Oh, Captain, please forgive me. I am not a black dog at all. When I was a beggar, they were the most annoying."

"If you can’t, I’m going to learn. Didn’t I find some people to teach you? You’re only 17, what are you afraid of? If you fail, you will not be able to study in one year or two years but not three years. It’s our people."

Dip scratched his head with embarrassment. "That would have caught many people by mistake. Why do I have to do it? Didn't the second officer want to be this?"

"Kernona has his own business. You are young and malleable. The job of a sailor is similar to that of a sheriff. Now there are few people on the island. You can just try it. When there are more people, you don’t want to take over. It's easy."

"Captain, are we really going to sea in the future?" Dipp opened his hands and feet, lying on the ground in a big font. The words were a little melancholy.

Charles took a sip of sweet coconut milk. "Perhaps."

He has found the surface, the mission of the Narwhal seems to be completed, and his sailing career seems to be really over

"When I thought of staying on the island for the rest of my life, I suddenly felt comfortable at sea."

"Isn't it better to live longer on the shore than to fight at sea? Isn't everyone joining the expedition ship for this day?"

"I thought the same way before, but suddenly when such a day came, I was not as happy as I imagined, and I still felt that I was going to sea with you for excitement."

Charles looked at the captain who was lying on the sand. If it weren't for his mobility now, he really wanted to run over and kick him.

A good life, however, must live a hard life.

"Captain, do you remember when we met? I competed with other beggars to grab a piece of brown bread that fell on the ground, but I was too weak and I was beaten by others. It hurts me. I still remember."

"As a result, did you tell me you wanted to be full? I nodded, and then you took me to the Rat."

"It's nothing. At that time, a sailor died, just by chance."

"Hey, for whatever reason, you saved my life anyway."

While Dip on the ground was twisting and stretching his waist, Charles suddenly saw a black mass at the base of his neck.

"What's on your neck?"

Dip sat up immediately, unbuttoning his shirt excitedly and showing it to him. "I think your tattoo looks pretty, and I got the same one."

A dead spider shrunk into a ball was tattooed on Dip's neck.

"Bump!" The coconut shell hit Dip directly, and Charles scolded Dip severely: "Do you know what it is, so you dare to get tattoos on your body? Get it off quickly!!"

This kind of imprint is something of a cult, and God knows what bad influence it has.

"Captain, isn't it just a tattoo? It's no big deal." Dip didn't care.

Just as Charles walked towards Dip, he saw a person holding a few simple umbrellas walking towards this side of the thatched shed. The leader was his first mate bandage.

"Someone...look...do you want to use...he wants to see you..."

Charles' eyes followed the bandaged fingers to a handsome young man with blue pupils and white hair. White shirt, black trousers, and a blue sweater. It is very incompatible with the surrounding environment.

"Good morning, Lord Governor of the wise Shenwu. I know that you are both happy and confused when you occupy a new island. You don't know what people to hire and what to pay them. At this time, I should be used. It's time." The young man spoke and instantly took the right to speak.

"who are you?"

"Under Leonardo, I am a person who can help you solve your current troubles. With all due respect, it is a very unprofessional time for you to push all the trivial matters on the island to a layman. , Your island will be a mess of thick mushroom soup."

Charles saw this guy's goal, and after a long time he came to apply.

"He is a layman, so are you an insider?"

"Yes, I used to be the Minister of Administration of Yeongdo Island. My professionalism can solve your question very well. I don’t need much, as long as I need a small house located at 500 square meters in the heart of the island and a weekly salary of 30,000 yuan. Echo's salary."

Charles walked to Leonardo and looked at him calmly. "Youngdo's Minister of Administration? So young?"

"Does the Governor judge a person by age? No matter how old the beggar on the road is, he can only change from a small beggar to an old beggar." Leonardo had confidence and calmness in his eyes.

Charles puts one hand on his shoulder~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I have been to many islands, and Yeongdo is one of them. Why don’t I remember that the Minister of Administration of Yeongdo is you? "

"Your Excellency, how long have you been to Yeongdo? Your position will change." Leonardo didn't seem to panic.

Charles stared at his blue pupils and slowly leaned in. "You should know that I was a desperado before becoming the governor? If you know you lied to me, do you know how I will treat you? The former Secretary of Finance of Yeongdo?"

Looking at the cold eyes under the bandages in front of him and the hard as iron palms on his shoulders, a drop of cold sweat slipped from Leonardo's forehead.

Leonardo shook his hands, and a confident smile reappeared on his face. "What's uncertain about this? I have indeed served in the next level. You can ask any Yeongdao people."

Charles slowly relaxed his hands, and turned his head to look at the bandage, "Yes, he will be the Minister of Finance of our Guangming Island from now on, and you can hand over some of your affairs to him."

"Hmm..." The bandage nodded, and led Leonardo to the hayloft in the distance.

Not knowing if it was an illusion, Charles suddenly felt that the pace of walking with bandages was a lot easier.

"Captain, did you just appoint? It's too sloppy, right? What if he has ulterior motives?" Dip said with wide-eyed eyes.

"That's your business, Director Dip, what should you do next, don't I need to teach it?" Charles returned to his original position and sat down.

Dipp looked at the left and right with a look of embarrassment, and finally sighed helplessly, turned and walked towards the straw shed. "If this guy is a liar, I will hang him up to fish for sharks!"

"Remember to get the tattoo!"

"I know, I know."
