Although the sailing direction had been set, it was not easy to reach Windmill Village on Toton Island. It would take at least ten days to reach Toton Island. There was nothing he could do about it. Sailing was a boring thing.
After spending two days, Chu Heng first brought his own ship, the Comet, to the nearest island in the nearby sea. Fortunately, during these two days of sailing, they did not encounter any robbers. Otherwise, the vehicle that Chu Heng had obtained with great difficulty would probably be robbed clean. Who knows, he might even be killed by his peers.
Although there was a navy station on this small island, there were often navies patrolling the town. However, Chu Heng didn't care. After leaving the Black Skeleton Pirates, Chu Heng was no longer a pirate. Moreover, Chu Heng's ship was now under the banner of a merchant, so he was not afraid of being stopped.
Of course, the most important thing was that Chu Heng was not famous at all. There wasn't even a 10,000-yuan bounty. Even if he swaggered in front of the navy as a pirate, he wouldn't be arrested.
After arriving on the island, Chu Heng first cashed in all the goods on the ship into Berries, earning a total of more than 3 million Berries. Perhaps some people would be surprised. The goods on a ship were worth more than three million Berries, and it was just a small ship. Wouldn't he become a billionaire if he plundered a few more ships?
However, if Chu Heng had used his identity as a pirate to bring his subordinates to plunder, only half of the three million would have gone to Chu Heng, and the rest would have been distributed to his subordinates. The captain would be responsible for the purchase of supplies, weapons, and other expenses. Secondly, every pirate must be paid a fixed daily salary. It could be said that Chu Heng could earn a few hundred thousand Berries from each raid. Perhaps, the remaining money that Chu Heng had in the end would not be as much as the dividends from the pirates under him.
It could be said that the captain was very glorious, but behind this glory, there was sadness…
After Chu Heng became the captain, he was able to set the daily salary for the crew. If it was set too low, the loyalty of the crew would decrease, and it would be easy for them to defect. If the setting was too high, the money Chu Heng received would probably not be enough to pay his salary for a few days.
In the end, Chu Heng decided to set the average sailor's salary at 500 Berri according to the market price. It was neither too high nor too low, at least it was acceptable to the sailors. Secondly, for people like Nu Da, Nu Er, Nu San, and Nami, Chu Heng set their salary at 1000 Berries, which was double that of ordinary sailors.
Even if Chu Heng didn't pay them, he wasn't afraid of them defecting. However, since the sailors were paid, he should treat them equally. Moreover, in Chu Heng's heart, these people were definitely the targets that he had to focus on nurturing in the near future. It's just spending a little more salary. I don't have to be so stingy with this money…
(20 sailors, 500 Berri per person. 10000 Berries a day. Including Nuda and the other three, each of them had 1,000, which was 4000 Berries a day. All in all, Chu Heng had to pay his subordinates 14000 Berries a day…If he wanted to be a captain, he really had to have money.）
After instructing Nuda and the others to take turns guarding the ship, Chu Heng logged out of the game. Outside the game, there was an extremely important matter waiting for Chu Heng to do. His sister should be preparing for surgery today. As early as three days ago, Chu Heng had given all ten million to Li Tian Zheng. Now, both the medicine and the surgical instruments were ready.
This operation did not take much time. However, Chu Heng still wanted a few days to take care of his sister. After the surgery, Chu Heng was not at ease to leave his sister with anyone. Having lost his sister once, Chu Heng didn't want his sister to be hurt again because of his helplessness.
After washing his face with cold water and tidying his hair, Chu Heng rushed out of the room. It was still 6:40 in the morning. In the game, Chu Heng had been paying attention to the time because he was afraid of delaying his sister's surgery.
Without hesitation, Chu Heng once again called for a hover taxi and drove to Zhengtian Hospital. Compared to the first time, this time Chu Heng was more familiar with the way to hire a taxi.
Not long after, Chu Heng arrived at the hospital and pushed open the door to ward 102. Chu Heng was surprised to find that not only was his sister in the room, but even the grandparents on the hospital beds had woken up early and were chatting with each other. The content of their conversation was mostly about his sister's surgery.
Seeing Chu Heng's arrival, everyone in the ward looked over.
"Heng, come over quickly." Seeing Chu Heng's arrival, Grandpa Zhang waved at Chu Heng in a very friendly manner.
Walking to Grandpa Zhang's bed, Chu Heng smiled and said,"Grandpa Zhang, what's the matter?"
Unexpectedly, just as Chu Heng finished speaking, Grandpa Zhang gently patted Chu Heng's head and said in a warm and angry tone,""Why are you only here now? Xiaoling woke up at five in the morning and was looking forward to your arrival. Why didn't you think about it? You're going to have surgery today. Why didn't you come earlier to comfort Xiaoling?”
Chu Heng, who had been slapped on the head, suddenly looked aggrieved. It was only seven o'clock in the morning, and there were still nearly three hours before the operation time of ten o'clock. Moreover, he was also unable to leave for the time being. If he didn't arrange things in the game properly, Chu Heng would probably go crazy if his ship was gone and all his men were dead the next time he went online.
However, even so, Chu Heng did not dare to say anything and obediently walked to his sister's bedside. Although his sister had been very sensible since she was young, when she heard that she was going to have surgery this time, she could not help but be a little afraid.
Seeing Chu Heng walk over, Chu Ling was a little embarrassed. Just now, it was because of her that her brother was scolded by Grandpa Zhang.
" Brother..." Chu Ling called out softly. She did not dare to look up into Chu Heng's eyes.
" Mm…" Chu Heng gently hugged Chu Ling's body and said gently,""Sorry, I'm late."
Chu Ling's eyes turned red when she heard this. Although she tried her best to hold back her tears, she still started sobbing. Hiding in Chu Heng's arms, Chu Ling sobbed.
"Brother, I'm afraid…"
Chu Heng gently stroked his sister's back and said with a smile,"What are you afraid of? Isn't Big Brother here? I will always be with you."
"Really?" Chu Ling said softly.
"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?”Ever since he was young, whenever his sister said that she was afraid, Chu Heng would comfort her in this way. Although it seemed childish, every time she heard him say this, her sister would calm down.
" Yes…I believe you, Brother."
The elders smiled kindly at the heartwarming scene between the siblings.
Chu Heng accompanied his sister until 10 o'clock. When he sent his sister into the operating room, Chu Heng looked at his sister with a smile. However, he still felt a little uneasy. Although his sister's surgery was not a major surgery, there was not much danger. However, just because it wasn't big didn't mean that it wasn't big, right?
After sending his sister to the operating room, Chu Heng waited anxiously outside. Even Grandpa Zhang, who was in the ward, strongly requested to wait outside. No matter how Chu Heng tried to dissuade him, it was useless.
When the red light in front of the operating room turned green, Chu Heng's heart jumped when he saw Li Tian Zheng walking out of the operating room with a smile.
"Don't worry, the surgery is a success."
