Chapter 473: On the Wrong Boat
“Well, all right. I admit it…you’re right. Then, wise man, let’s have a conversation in a wise man’s way? I can see from your seemingly invisible observation that Trump is a man of vision. If I really had any sense in this deal, you’d be a good opponent. However, I wouldn’t be depressed about it. On the contrary, I would be very happy. Because I don’t intend to play any tricks in this deal. I believe you will be a good helper for me.”
At this point, Lei Luo paused and asked, “But, by the way, I’m really interested to know what you want to see from me.”
“If I tell you, you might not believe me,” Tolle said.
Lei Luo almost immediately said with a smile, “No, I’ll believe you. I’ve always believed the words of smart people.”
“I’m observing your age,” Tolle said.
Lei Luo blinked his eyes in disbelief. “Huh? You just want to know my age?”
Tolle replied, “It’s a little weird, but it’s the truth.”
“If that’s all, why didn’t you ask me directly?” Lei Luo asked, amused.
Tolle hesitated for a moment, but he still answered, “Asking the answer directly makes me feel unfulfilled. I like to observe on my own.”
Lei Luo looked at Tolle speechlessly for a while and shook his head in disbelief.
After being stunned for a while, Lei Luo asked, “Why do you care so much about my age? Are you worried that I’m too young and inexperienced for this deal?”
“No.” Tolle shook his head and answered honestly. “I want to know who is older between us.”
This time, Lei Luo was completely stunned. He stared at Tolle with wide eyes for a long time before finally laughing.
“You really look like a woman. Only a woman would care about something like age, right?”
This was just a joke, but what Lei Luo didn’t expect was that Tolle seemed to be quite unhappy, and his tone was a little stiff.
“No, I’m not a woman.”
After saying that, Tolle stood up and left the dining table.
“Hey, I’m just making an analogy. You don’t have to be so serious, right?”
Lei Luo spread his hands and sat on the spot with an innocent look on his face.
Just as Lei Luo and Tolle’s ship was sailing toward the mother nest of the Grizzly Pirates, another ship was also sailing in the sea.
This ship set off from the Bright Pearl and stopped at the Holy City of Beauty to go to the famous sacred place of recuperation, the Eye of the Lover.
The main passenger of this ship was a travel group of civil servants.
When the ship arrived at the Holy City of Beauty for its normal stop, these usually high and mighty officials kept shouting.
“It’s already late, and they’re still stopping for so long. Are they all such inefficient idiots…”
“Wasting other people’s time is equivalent to a slow murder. Haven’t you heard of such a classic saying…”
“I want to complain to your headquarters. It’s necessary to review your operating speed…”
The guests kept howling, causing the crew members to feel upset.
In order to calm down these shouts, the crew members especially changed the usual practice of checking tickets before boarding the ship. They let the guests board the ship first and then checked their tickets.
The crew members thought so. There were only over a thousand people anyway. Compared to the total number of passengers of 120,000, it was nothing.
However, because they were greedy for a moment of convenience, they had harmed one person.
“How can this seat be yours?”
When Arthur boarded the ship and asked a certain person to give up his seat, that person looked at Arthur strangely.
Arthur’s original intention was to use the facts to convince the other party, but what surprised him was that he was the one who was convinced in the end.
“Please, sir, please take a good look. Your ticket doesn’t belong to this ship at all.”
“Ah?” Arthur looked at the ticket carefully and found that it was really like that. “This…is bad.”
“Then…Then why did the staff member let me in when I entered the customs?”
Arthur looked at the passenger innocently.
“How would I know?” Although his tone was not very friendly, the passenger was still kind enough to explain to him. “Maybe he was mistaken like you?”
A few minutes later, Arthur was sent to the captain.
In the beginning, the person who received Arthur appeared very amiable, “May I know your name, sir?”
“My name is Lothar,” Arthur replied in a seemingly simple and honest manner.
The captain nodded, “Oh, it’s Mr. Lothar. May I know if Mr. Lothar has been on our ship before?”
Arthur shook his head, “No.”
The captain asked again, “Then…may I know what you do for a living?”
“Unemployed,” Arthur answered.
The captain asked again, “Then…is your family very rich or has a strong background?”
“My family has been poor for three generations.”
As soon as Arthur finished his answer, the captain’s face immediately changed. He slapped the table with his fat hand and pointed at Arthur, shouting, “How could you be wrong? It’s either your character or your IQ. Choose one. Which one do you admit to?”
After suffering for a whole day, the captain finally found a person who could vent his anger, so his scolding was very smooth.
“Uh…” Arthur was stunned for a while. “Can we sail back? It’s not long now. I might be able to catch up with my ship when I go back.”
“You wish. Energy fees, labor fees, and the mental damage that we suffered from the prolonged harassment of these perverted guests. Do you know how much this is? Do you know how much it is?”
As the captain spoke, he knocked on the table excitedly.
“Then what exactly do you want?” Arthur asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, the captain pulled out a uniform from his body and threw it at him.
“From now on, until we arrive at the Eye of the Lover, we will be crew members. Through this, you can pay the ticket price.”
Three minutes later, Arthur, who had an unlucky look on his face, walked out of the crew room with a basin in his hand.
His first mission was to clean up the dirt that he spat out for an old man with a weird personality.
Arthur finally saw this old man with a weird personality after dedicating all the swear words he knew in his life to the captain.
Before he walked to the old man’s side, the old man’s eyes were closed.
When Arthur was about a meter away from the old man, the old man’s eyes suddenly opened.
Although it was only a slight opening, Arthur suddenly felt a strange numbness all over his body. It was as if his entire body could not move at all.
