Chapter 40: Bait and fisherman

"Welcome to the great Mr. Bacon's alchemy laboratory. There can only be one additional effect on each piece of equipment, which cannot coexist with other alchemy effects/additional magic effects. You can be honored to obtain the following alchemy service items:"

"Adds 1-1 damage to weapons. Charges £100 or 1000 utility points"

"Adds the ability to absorb 1% damage to armor. Charges £100 or 1000 utility points"

"Increase movement speed by 20 points for shoes. Charge 500 pounds or 5000 general points" (this attribute is not available, because you do not have footwear equipment) (By the way, Sheyan's current maximum movement speed is related to agility, which is about 220 points )

"Add an extra space for firearms. Charge 1,000 pounds or 10,000 utility points (this attribute is not available because you are not wearing firearms equipment) (this attribute is very weak for weapons such as submachine guns, But for the single-shot arquebus in this world, it represents a fundamental change)”

"You can only get the above services at present."

Fang Sheyan looked at this series of prompts in a daze. After he got the plunder dividend from Captain Armand, he thought it was already a huge sum of money, but now it seems that even though the British pound cannot bring Out of this world, it cannot be exchanged for general points, but it seems that it can play a very important role at certain times. Sheyan took out his purse, which was now a little shriveled. Although there was still the pleasant jingling sound of the pound pounding in it, Sheyan already had the deep feeling that he would hate to use up the money at this time.

After paying two hundred pounds, Sheyan added a 1-1 attack to his cobalt steel alloy exoskeleton, and the FBI special windbreaker was attached with the property of absorbing 1% of damage. But at this time, he only had about two pounds left, and he had returned to the poor and white state when he first entered this world. After alchemist Bacon consumed Sheyan, his attitude towards Sheyan finally became more polite, so he reluctantly answered Sheyan's question:

"What? You asked me how to open a higher level of service. Oh, God, how could I hear such a stupid question. Boy, alchemy is a very, very, very, very wealth-consuming sacred work, so performing higher levels of service It means that you will spend more expensive materials and pay more horrible costs-so the only way to get more advanced services is to prove that you have sufficient ability to pay. When your total consumption with me reaches a certain level, you can will be approved by me."

"Okay, okay." When Sheyan left here, his mind was full of thoughts about how to make money. But it seems that the only way for him to get money at this time is to go to the bar to gamble. It's just that these pirates are quite shrewd. Although Fang Senyan relies on his high perception to win more than lose, and cleverly set up some traps for intentional losses, the pirates seem to have a psychological bottom line, that is, they lose to about two or three times. Stop playing around sterling. Therefore, Sheyan worked hard all afternoon, and only earned ten pounds at most. It is really inefficient to satisfy the appetite of that greedy Mr. Bacon at this speed.

That night, Sheyan went back to his cabin and prepared to rest. After all, he had to train with blind Matt tomorrow morning. If he could maintain his best condition, he might be able to improve his basic footwork by one level. But at this time, Kerry slipped into the cabin, seeing the fake smile on his face and the way he was rubbing his hands, Fang Sheyan vigilantly covered his wallet and said:

"what you up to?"

Kerry said with a smile:

"I heard that you seemed to get a lot of dividends last time? I mean the pound sterling, the currency of this world."

Sheyan said lightly:

"No."

Kerry seemed to be choked like a chicken strangling his neck, and suddenly cried out in frustration:

"How is it possible? Charle clearly said that Armand gave you hundreds of pounds."

"That's my business, okay?" Sheyan said very bluntly.

Kerry spread his hands and said helplessly:

"Oh, don't be like that bro, I don't want yours for nothing. I'll buy your pounds for GM points? 500 GPs for £500!"

If Fang Sheyan hadn't gone to the alchemist's place to spend today, maybe the deal would have been real, but now he knows how unreliable the price Kerry offered, he held back his breath and said lightly:

"What do you want so much money for?"

Kerry was obviously prepared, and said froth:

"Hey bro, I'm on a quest that will require a lot of pounds to get rid of these greedy plot characters, and will eventually open the door to an alchemist's laboratory that will add all kinds of magic to our equipment. Fantastic property - come to think of it, it's for us! Don't hesitate, give me your money."

Sheyan said coldly:

"Is the alchemist you're talking about called Bacon?"

After Kerry froze for three seconds:

"Oh, damn it! How did you know that?"

Sheyan took out a heavy money bag, and there was a charming clattering sound of coins colliding inside, and Kerry's eyes showed fiery hope again:

"Listen, I'll always know more than you. Tell me honestly what you're going to do with £500, and I'll give you the purse."

"You promise? Do you dare to use the nightmare mark for notarization?"

"no problem."

"Okay, you win, that greedy old bastard has squeezed money to an outrageous degree, if you are willing to pay double the alchemy price, then you can get the alchemy scroll for this service - this thing can Bring out the nightmare space! Some high-quality and best-selling alchemy scrolls can even be sold for a fairly high profit—give me the purse!"

Fang Sheyan nodded, threw the heavy purse in his hand, then drove Kerry out of the cabin and locked the door, and then lay down lazily on the bed with his hands behind his head. Soon he heard a scream from outside, and that voice belonged to Kerry. The reason for the screams, of course, was that the seemingly plump purse was filled with pennies (the unit of British currency). Similar to Chinese "fen". 1 pound = 240 pence (1 shilling = 12 pence, 1 pound = 20 shillings)

When Kerry, who was full of expectations, opened the clattering purse, the disappointment caused by the huge gap in his heart can be imagined. And this purse was also a prop used by a shrewd gambler pretending to be a rich man in the bar during the day. Of course, he was beaten up by the pirates and thrown face down on the street, and the only property on his body was taken by Sheyan. to pay off gambling debts. After Fang Sheyan got the news, he immediately understood why that damn old Barry would evaluate the value of the token so high. In fact, it was true. As long as someone has a certain charm and enough funds after getting the cross, then It should at least be able to earn 100% of the profits back!

Kerry obviously didn't have the guts to come back to Sheyan for a theory, because logically speaking, the deceit he used in his relationship with Sheyan was nothing less than that, Sheyan did this thing just to get back a little interest. But Sheyan didn't close his eyes to sleep, there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was waiting for something. Not long after, there was a short knock on the door outside, Sheyan's eyes flickered and he said:

"who is it?"

"It's me, Mr. Boatswain." It was the second officer Robben who spoke.

The man hurried over and said:

"I have to come here to inform you that your cousin is borrowing money in your name on the ship. While he keeps preaching how close the relationship between you is, he doesn't hesitate to borrow money at high interest rates. Money. If he doesn’t come out with the loan and interest by the due date, then I’m afraid he will be in big trouble, and even you will be very, very passive.”

Obviously, this is the cunning Kerry's counterattack. Since Fang Senyan said that the relationship between the two was extremely close in order to make an agreement, at this time he took advantage of the situation to magnify this fictitious intimacy, so as to use Fang Senyan's reputation to borrow money! After thinking about it for a while, Sheyan opened the cabin door to look for Kerry, but he obviously underestimated Kerry's adaptability. By the time he got to the deck, Kerry had already boarded the barge and rowed several meters towards the shore Now, and he was already carrying a very plump and clanging purse in his hand, and more importantly, it was full of fine pounds!

Seeing Sheyan standing on the deck, Kerry smiled triumphantly and shouted:

"Dear cousin, don't worry, I set the repayment date in seven days."

Obviously, after seven days, the two who were the contractors had already returned to the real world. However, who can tell whether Kerry will enter here in the future? Once entered, it may not be necessary to enter with Sheyan again. But Kerry can never go near the Bell and Wineglass again, and Sheyan's hard-earned boatswain's status must not be easily given up! This means that most of the bad debt on Kerry's back will be counted on Sheyan. If Sheyan reneges on the debt, it is inevitable that his reputation will plummet. Obviously Sheyan is also aware of this, and he roared a little out of composure:

"Don't even think about going back to the ship, just wait to be chased to death by the guards of Turtuga Port!"

Kerry shrugged regretfully, and said with a smile:

"I'll be back as soon as I finish my errands. My dearest cousin, don't be angry. Mr. Shire and I are also on good terms. Even if you don't let me go on board, he will accept me."

Sheyan watched blankly as the boat carrying Kerry disappeared into the darkness. His expression looked helpless and angry, but only when he got closer could he find the sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if watching Like a hunter who catches his prey into a trap!
