Chapter 0525 Ghost Ship(2/3)
"Because there is no wind or current here now, and we are so slow to repair the ships!"
"It's only been driving for a long time to repair it. Do you still dare to say it's not a broken ship?"
"this……"
This made the captain suddenly feel that it makes sense, and he couldn't find any reason to refute...
"Okay! Gareth, don't be rude to the captain!"
Gao Wen spoke out at the right time to free the captain from siege so that the other party would not be too embarrassed.
“…”
"Hey, Captain Bearded, why are there no fish in the sea? I've just looked at it for a long time and didn't find a single fish!"
She just thought about fishing to pass the time.
There is no better way to entertain on the sea, especially in this slow and stable sea area, but after watching it for a while, there seemed to be nothing under the clear sea, and fishing and entertainment would definitely not work.
"No fish?"
The captain was stunned for a moment, and then snorted quickly.
"That's absolutely impossible!"
"We have been here many times. The sea fish under the sea are big and plump. Both the Saxons and the Celtics in the south like to come here to catch fish. Last time we passed by, we also had a lot of nets."
There is no place that is more suitable for boats to catch fish than this sea area, because the sea surface is stable, there are also a large number of fish, and of course, Saxon pirates!
While speaking, the bearded captain leaned to the bow of the ship and began to look towards the seabed around him. However, even though he widened his eyes, he saw nothing.
"It's strange, there's really no..."
How could there be no fish?
Even the senior captain who claims to have traveled this sea area many times cannot tell the reason. He has never seen this situation before.
"Stop talking about fish, there is not even a seagull now!"
Gareth did not continue to see the sea surface. She had seen it for a long time. There was indeed no rest here, and there were even no active marine life! Also, even the sea birds and seagulls that specialize in preying on small fish and shrimps are gone. Yesterday, we could still see them flying around the sailboat from time to time to rest.
"I don't know this. It's the first time I've encountered this situation."
“…”
"Everything goes with the flow, God has already made arrangements, and it is impossible to force it!"
As soon as Anne came to the meeting hall of the castle, she saw the dazed king Artoria gathering with the beautiful nun named Meli and other, talking about something. Seeing that they were smiling, they seemed to be having a very happy chat?
“Huh?”
"Are you just talking about something interesting?"
⊙?
Originally, Annie didn't plan to pay attention to these two guys, because Daimao was a workaholic, and the guy he had just met was indeed a little charlatan. She didn't think there would be anything fun about the other party.
But, since she was touched by them and they were laughing so happily, she must have asked the previous question.
"It's nothing in fact."
"Just just now, we talked about the attitudes of our neighbors towards us, Camelo, and then I asked the nun Melis a little about her opinions. Some of her views made me feel very strange."
In fact, it cannot be said to be a consultation, it is just her complaint.
So, this temple nun Meli, who happened to visit him, comforted himself for a while, which made him feel much more bored and felt that the other person's personality was very compatible with his appetite.
"Hello……"
"Let's do it today, Princess Artoria, I still have something to do, so let's say goodbye first."
After seeing a little girl who was afraid of her coming back, Meli, who was not willing to have too much contact with the other party for the time being, got up and said goodbye, for fear that the other party would see her.
Before both parties are familiar with each other and fail to completely let the other party down, Meli doesn't intend to let herself appear in front of the little girl too much, because that would be too dangerous and would probably expose her.
"strangeness……"
"Sister Daimao, why is that guy here again?"
Annie felt a little strange about the little charlatan that appeared several times a day. She vaguely felt that the other party seemed to be deliberately trying to get in touch with this stupid guy?
If you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal...
So, she felt that the other party must want to get something from this sister Daimao! Or, like the weird 'politician's' that Uncle Colson and the others said, they wanted to get some benefits from the future king of Camelo?
"I got along well with that nun, so I specially invited her to visit and have lunch together before."
Artoria is no longer surprised by the fact that a little guy forced himself to nickname him.
She had protested again about this!
But as a result, this hateful little bastard said that if you want to remove the title of "Daimao", you must first pull out the Daimao on the top of your head. How could she agree with such an outrageous thing? So, she let the other party call her randomly.
"oh……"
Annie didn't agree, she wouldn't care too much about these things!
"Hey! Sister Daimao, aren't you bored for these boring things all day long?!"
On tiptoe, he glanced at the pile of parchment documents and decrees on the other side's table, and Little Anne curled her lips and asked in a boring manner.
"ah!"
"I've been used to this..."
In her previous life, the country she ruled was much larger than that of Camelo, almost the entire southern region of Britain, and the military and political affairs she handled every day were at least several times more than now!
She still remembered that in the era where Artoria lived, the kingdom that had lost the protection of the Roman Empire began to decline increasingly, but internally, gradually collapsed...
So, in order to save everything, she tried her best to fight and work hard!
At that time, for her country and for her people, she resolutely gave up as a woman and became a 'real' male king!
She frozen her heart and even lost human feelings... and for the sake of the survival of the kingdom, countless unjust souls were piled up under her sword, and the things she had to deal with every day were at least ten times more than now!
Although, what she did in the end was useless.
Thinking about the situation back then, and thinking about the preferential treatment of doing things according to your true thoughts, what is she dissatisfied with? As she said, she has become accustomed to being called a king, and also used to being busy with the king.
"It's really boring!"
"It's wrong for you to be a king like this!"
Anne herself has almost never had to work hard as a king. She doesn't have to do anything except occasionally being pulled by some bad guys to attend meetings!
"But I've always been like this before..."
Artoria didn't think there was anything wrong. Now she managed the entire Camelo in an orderly manner. Although she did not immediately return to the prosperity she had before the turmoil, she believed that everything would always get better.
"What about your former country?"
After holding her little bear, she jumped directly to the other party's table and sat down, Annie asked casually.
“…”
After a while of silence, Artoria could only smile bitterly and could not say anything. They had argued about this before, and she had not returned to the country where she was electing the king... had long since disappeared.
But now everything has never happened, she firmly believes that she can do better!
"Let me do this, let me tell you a story I've seen. What do you think?"
Anne turned her big green eyes and then suddenly said sly, with a tone that sounded terrible, and those who knew her would definitely know what bad idea she was making again!
"You can still tell stories? Well, then you can tell me, I'll listen!"
Artoria smiled and looked at the other party, then said while dealing with her own affairs.
Now here, there are many troubles that need to be decided by her.
For example: those griffins who made her love and hate ate a lot of food and meat in just three days, which is almost a month-on-month supply of a thousand-man legion!
In three days, her Camelo Kingdom provided them with more than a hundred cattle and sheep! And this was just a basic guarantee. They still needed to go out to hunt wild animals from time to time to maintain that high consumption... So now, she had to re-plan and plan to let the government officials plan several large ranches and pig farms in two places in the north of the city to meet the daily needs of the griffins.
However, it takes a long time to achieve results. In the short term, she still needs to find ways to satisfy them as much as possible. At least, she must fill the gap in their insufficient prey when they go out to avoid starving or starving them to death!
Now the meat food in Camelo is gradually becoming difficult to acquire. Due to the sudden addition of a group of special food guys, the price of meat in the market has risen by several levels, and gradually it feels like supply is in short supply, so she is planning to let those breeding officials change to a large number of freshwater fish?
But no matter what, she must solve the problem of griffin well, so there will always be a solution! At least, they are not short of money now, which saves her a lot of trouble.
And this is just one of the troubles!
What is even more troublesome now is the trade issues with neighboring countries and territories...
Artoria didn't understand, why did she cut off all trade with Camelo if she didn't provoke them?
Otherwise, how could she be so embarrassed now that she is even rich and it is difficult to buy what she needs?
Just now, she had the idea of sending troops to attack the kingdoms and territories against her Camelo, but the nun Meli persuaded her in time and suggested that she should not cause unrest before being crowned, and it would be best to solve it in a peaceful way?
"That's how it is!"
"Once upon a time, two hungry dumb guys were given the gift from an old man who meddled with the business of the other: he gave them a fishing rod and a basket of fresh and huge fish."
"One of them asked for a basket of fish, the other asked for a fish rod, and soon they parted ways... The person who got the fish set up a campfire with dry firewood and cooked the fish. He swallowed it voraciously and had not tasted the meat flavor of the fresh fish. In a flash, he ate all the fish and soup... Soon, he starved to death by the empty fish basket."
"The other man continued to starve with a fishing rod, walking towards the beach step by step, but when he had already seen the blue sea in the distance, his last little strength was used up, and he could only die with endless regrets."
"And then, there were two hungry fools who also received the gift of the nosy guy, a fishing rod and a basket of fish... This time, the two of them did not go their separate ways, but discussed going together to find a river or sea that they could fish! On the way, they only cooked one fish at a time. After a long journey, they finally arrived at the beach..."
Annie started to say something casually, regardless of whether the other party was listening seriously.
To be continued...
