Chapter 40 The Conflict of Smugglers

From the moment the chef appeared, the surrounding crew members did not even dare to say a word. When they heard the chef's words, they all smiled. One crew member flattered him and said: "Brother, it's better to think about these brothers." Another crew member also took the opportunity.

He said: "How about we only serve the eldest brother!" He turned and glanced at the beautiful captain, and said with a flat mouth: "That guy over there... doesn't know how to feel sorry for the brothers." The first crew member was indignant.

He snorted unjustly: "She agreed to put this fat guy in here." The chef snorted, but smiled slightly, with an unfathomable expression on his face.

The fat man was a little shocked and thought to himself: "Is there something wrong with these crew members? Even the captain doesn't take it seriously." He turned his head and looked at the female captain with frowning eyebrows. He couldn't imagine it at all.

, how could the captain of a smuggling ship full of desperadoes be such a young and beautiful girl?

Tian Xingjian stared blankly at the beautiful captain, but he didn't realize that the middle-aged chef had been looking at him impatiently for a long time. The fat man was shaking his head in disbelief, when suddenly a pair of big hands twisted his collar and pulled him away.

Lifting it up fiercely, the fat man reflexively prepared to take action. Suddenly he realized that he was now mechanic Zhang Yuan, a guy who could only get beaten in front of these people. He desperately controlled himself and prepared to chop at the opponent's neck.

holding his hand, he shouted in panic: "What are you doing? What are you doing?"

The middle-aged chef said sternly: "I never say anything twice. I tell you to eat it quickly. Hehe, how dare you turn a deaf ear to my words and look at women lustfully. Is this woman something you can see?"

As he spoke through gritted teeth, he used his muscular arms to pull the table over, forcefully dragged the fat man out of his seat, and dragged him all the way to the door like a dead pig. He kicked the fat man somersaulting with a flying kick and roared.

Said: "Get out! If you let me see you again, I will destroy you!"

The fat man had an extremely frightened expression on his face, his mouth was open, his whole body was shaking, and his eyes were full of tears, as if he would completely collapse and cry in another second. When the performance reached an emotional point, it felt like tears were about to roll down.

Suddenly a clear and crisp voice came: "Uncle Eric, don't scare the guests..." The fat man glanced timidly, but it was the beautiful captain standing at the door of the restaurant, looking a bit dashing and a little bit shy.

weak.

Eric chuckled and said, "Audrey, what kind of guest is this? Don't you think of this smuggling ship as a passenger ship?" He didn't seem to buy the captain's account at all, and his expression changed as he spoke.

: "What class has this guest booked? Do you want me to serve him personally?"

Captain Audrey's face changed. She obviously didn't expect Eric to contradict her in public, and said angrily: "Eric, I respect you and I'll call you uncle. Find out who is the captain on this ship. Do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Although her voice was soft, there was an undeniable courage. "You are all my father's old brothers. Why do you want to have internal strife just after the old man left? It doesn't matter whether I am the captain or not. Don't think that I want to occupy him."

Whoever is qualified to sit in this position will take it!" She looked at Eric coldly and smiled and said: "Uncle Eric, if you want to sit in this position, you might as well say it. They are all my father's old brothers, and no one will say anything about you.

Bullying my own niece!" As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence. Although several crew members felt a little bored, Eric's face turned red and white, and he couldn't tell whether he was ashamed or angry. Finally, he groaned and turned around.

Entered the restaurant.

Tian Xingjian saw that Audrey had quite a bit of fierce and cold courage, and secretly said in his heart: "No wonder a girl can lead a group of big men to do such a desperate job. The use of excuses to defeat Eric is not ordinary.

What a girl is capable of." When all the crew members dispersed, Fatty noticed that Audrey sighed softly, and her face that was tough and cold just now suddenly became weak and helpless. She looked like an ordinary girl who had been wronged. Her eyes

A thick fog floated in the air, and he felt like crying. The fat man sighed in his heart. Being the captain of a smuggling ship full of contradictions, even a very strong man would have a headache, let alone such a girl.

The fat man was speculating on the contradictions of the smuggling ship, but Audrey found that the honest-looking fat man in front of her was staring at her intently, and suddenly said with a pretty face: "Your name is Zhang Yuan, right?" Seeing the fat man

Cringing to answer, Audrey waved her hand disdainfully and said: "Since you paid the money, we will be responsible for sending you to your destination. Don't cause any trouble on this ship. There is no one you can mess with here."

Come on, I don't care whether you live or die if something happens!" Her expression changed rapidly, her voice was cold and sharp, and she didn't look weak at all. The fat man nodded pitifully with tears in his eyes.

, Audrey snorted coldly, turned around and left.

There was no one at the door of the restaurant. Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Tian Xingjian quickly sneaked into the bar next to the restaurant. After all, the route of the smuggling ship was much further than that of ordinary cargo ships, and it was impossible to pass through the giant space jump point guarded by the fleets of the belligerent countries.

, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they usually take detours from public galaxies and pass those ultra-small jumping points. The trip that can be reached in four or five days will take a month. If they stay in that shabby cabin every day for this month,

But it's life-threatening, and it's worse than being in jail.

The fat man walked into the bar with a pitiful and cowering look, found a remote seat, sat down, and ordered a glass of wine. Like most honest and honest ordinary people, he only drank with his head hanging down. Anyone who passed by would scare him.

Jumping, as if he was ready to stand up and make way for others at any time. He originally had a naive face, but now that he is disguised, his face has become more honest, and he is so fat that people cannot be wary. He is drinking,

A hand was put on his shoulder. The fat man trembled. When he looked up, he saw an old crew member with greasy clothes. The old crew member chuckled, sat down opposite the fat man and said, "Fat man, give it to me."

Order a drink."

The fat man had seen this old guy in the restaurant just now. When there was a conflict, he stayed aside and watched the fun. He cursed in his heart, but his face looked like he was afraid of being beaten. He nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, okay

." He didn't dare to wave to the waiter, so he stood up and trotted to the bar. He nodded and hunched over, bought a bottle of wine from the bartender who rolled his eyes and looked impatient, took it back, poured it for the old man, and said with a flattering smile:

"I'll borrow your boat for a short journey. You'll take care of me along the way. I'll give you a toast."

The old man chuckled. He drank the wine in his glass and said, "I heard you are a mechanic? Hey, there are actually many ways to get to Mozic, why do you have to get on this ship?" The fat man thought to himself: "Damn,

Don’t I know? It takes at least half a year to travel from another country, transfer all the way, and arrange flights. By the time we get there, the day lilies are already cold." But he smiled and said: "I have something to do. I am in a hurry to go back.

Many of my friends went this way." The old man shook his head and said: "If I don't say you are stupid, it doesn't matter if you take a smuggling ship, why did you bring a [Hurricane] on board?" The fat man heard this.

, understood immediately, and asked with a pale face: "Don't others bring mechas?" The old man smiled strangely: "Yes! But no one dares to bring such a jealous mecha! This machine

A is the latest mecha that was just released a year ago. Hey, I want to fucking steal it from you..." He pointed at the other people in the bar and said, "Not to mention these guys."

The fat man trembled all over and said: "Old man, this is too unjust. I paid for the boat ride and didn't cause any trouble to you." The old man squinted his eyes and smiled: "No trouble, no trouble, I'll throw you into the garbage chute."

Throw it away, there will be no trouble." The fat man was about to cry, and said in a trembling voice: "Old man, don't scare me. I am naturally timid. This is a smuggling ship, not a pirate ship. Otherwise, you can send me back first.

Isn't it okay if I don't want to take this boat?" The old man drank one drink after another. He ignored the fat man's pleas and acted as if he was sitting on the fishing platform. Later, when he saw that the fat man was about to shed tears, he acted like a

He looked really helpless and said: "My old Ivan's words are still useful here. They have to sell our power cabin to save some face. Without power, this ship can only hang in space. Since you are a mechanic."

Master, just move to the power cabin and help out when you have nothing to do. I told everyone that there are not enough manpower...but the protection fee..." The old man's cloudy eyes almost narrowed into a line.

, a black hand spread out and placed in front of the fat man.

The fat man thought with laughter in his heart: "This old immortal is really an old ghost. He scared people half to death with just a few words. Anyway, I can't prove it. Only a fool asked others if they wanted to steal his mecha. I found it.

Not only do you have free labor, but you also charge protection fees. It’s so damn dark.” With a painful look on his face, he took out the electronic credit card specially prepared for him by the military, and said tremblingly: “Uncle Ivan, protect me.

How much is the fee?" Old Ivan gestured to him to put the credit card back and said: "Don't be here. Anyway, I won't charge you too much if I suffer a little loss. Alas, you look pitiful too. Drink, drink."

The old man's face was flushed with pride, and he kept drinking. From time to time, he lowered his voice and told the fat man mysteriously some of the so-called inside stories on the smuggling ship to win the fat man's trust.

How could Tian Xingjian let go of such an opportunity? While pouring wine for old Ivan, he was digging out the inside story. This old man had no scruples after drinking too much. It wasn't a secret anyway, it was just some entanglement of right and wrong.

Xiangzi, it didn't take long for the fat man to get an overview of the situation on the ship. It turned out that this old [Apollo] civilian medium-sized transport ship was purchased by Audrey's father. This group of people were originally just idlers and poor people.

He also led the crew single-handedly. As long as he was around, no one in this group dared to stab her. But not long ago, Audrey's father suddenly passed away due to illness. Smuggling was originally just trying to make ends meet.

, a snake can’t survive without a head. The old captain is the most loyal among all the smuggling ships, and Audrey grew up on this ship, and the ship belongs to her family, so inheriting the position of captain is undisputed, but

Everyone has selfish motives, and the crew leaders on this ship each have their own factions. Moreover, the smuggling ship is a man's job after all. Being led by a young girl, these people all feel that it is a bit unsavory. In addition, the old captain is dead.

, some nobles also have Audrey's idea. If Audrey can accompany them, everything about entering the customs and receiving the goods can be easily discussed. However, Audrey would rather die than obey. The Gacharin Empire

Most of the relationship was severed, and now everyone's financial resources were affected, and the conflicts became more and more serious.

Old man Ivan drank a glass of wine, smacked his lips and said: "Since Audrey took over as captain, this ship has never been clean. Although Eric is a cook, apart from the old captain and me, there are only

He is the oldest person on this ship. This guy is ruthless and in charge of where everyone eats. There are quite a few guys who listen to him. Besides him, there are also former first officers who want to be captains.

Chang Anthony, that guy is not a good person. If these two people didn't accept each other and secretly competed with each other below, so that Audrey could find a balance, otherwise they would have taken away the power. Hehe..." Old man..."

He raised his head and poured down another glass of wine, and said mysteriously: "These two guys not only want to be captains, hey, they also want to be the filial son-in-law of the old captain."

"Holy shit..." The fat man recalled Eric's ferocious appearance, and then thought about Audrey's beautiful face that could make any man feel suffocated upon meeting him, and he felt angrily: "Isn't this a bastard chewing barley and wasting food?

"Listening to Ivan's words, the fat man sympathized with Audrey, but at the same time he became more and more worried about An Lei. This world is a world of the jungle, and An Lei's personality is not suitable for missions behind enemy lines. If anything happens, it will really make things worse.

I regret it for the rest of my life.

Although the old ghost Ivan coaxed and lied, he was still the steward of the power cabin after all. No one in the increasingly busy bar came to trouble Tian Xingjian, including the crew members who were in the restaurant just now, and they just passed by.

At that time, he raised his eyes and threatened, and when he saw old Ivan staring, he let the pitiful fat man go with a strange smile.

While he was drinking, the spacecraft suddenly turned off its power engine, and the whole bar went dark. After a few seconds, when the emergency lights were turned on, the spacecraft began to vibrate violently, as if it was about to fall apart. The fat man turned pale.

, this time I am not pretending, I am really scared. It is obvious that the spaceship is passing through the space jump point. The current jump does not require a survival capsule. The entire spacecraft is a large survival capsule. The engine is useless during the jump.

, the spacecraft has accelerated through the acceleration device of the jump point before entering the jump point. Only after passing the jump point, the spacecraft engine will restart. At such a high speed, the overall force of the spacecraft is very large, and such a dilapidated transport ship

, it may turn into a piece of rotten iron at any time during the space jump. Seeing the old ghost Ivan's mocking look, the fat man almost cried.
