Chapter 116

"I'm going to challenge Orff the next time I go out to sea. There will be a lot of people supporting me at that time. In fact, I've won far more than half of the votes, and we're on the verge of victory." Goodwin reached out and said sincerely, "I don't want to say that until the final result comes out. It seems that I am arrogant, but Orff's time is over. Join us. The future is ours."

Hearing this, the farmer's son was so excited that he immediately went to hold the friendly hand of the black gunner. However, Zhang Heng sat still in his seat.

Goodwin's hand hung in mid air for a few seconds, and his face gradually changed.

Zhang Heng said politely, "I'm quite satisfied with the current state. I don't have any idea to change for the moment."

Goodwin is still making the final effort. "I can understand that as a newcomer who has just been on the ship for more than half a year, you don't want to offend the old man on the ship and be afraid of revenge, but you also need to know that when the war begins, no one likes the wall riding faction."

Although the black gunner's words were euphemistic, the threat was also obvious. He was warning them not to think that only Orff would take revenge on the other side.

Malvern raised his heart to his throat and wanted to shake the hand instead of Zhang Heng.

The latter was silent for a moment, and finally reached out his hand. Goodwin saw that his intention had been achieved, and the corner of his mouth was also raised. However, after listening to Zhang Heng, "sorry, I still insist on my previous position, and I don't want to get involved in this matter."

The smile on the black gunner's face solidified in this moment, "you will regret your choice." Then he looked to Malvern on the other side. "What about you?"

The farmer's son is a little scared, but he has been with Zhang Heng for a long time, but this kind of vague threat doesn't make him betray, but he really doesn't understand why Zhang Heng refused such a good opportunity.

If Goodwin hadn't lied, he would have won this time.

The black gunner is now cold faced, and no longer has the enthusiasm of the past. In his previous plan, Zhang Heng and Malvin should be able to easily get the two votes. Whether it is the harmonious relationship between the two sides before or the promise he has given, he can be said to be very sincere. He really can't think of any reason for them to refuse.

Now this result was unexpected before he came. Without any further discussion, Goodwin didn't want to sit down any more. He got up and left without any excuse.

Looking at the back of the black gunner, Malvern's face was worried. Anne upstairs was very happy. She should have heard something and looked down. "If you can't get along with the sea lion, join me in the team!"

“…………”

"Spread your medicine well, don't let the wound get infected." Zhang Hengdao.

But the farmer's son seemed to be aware of something and said tentatively, "you Don't you think he can't win? "

"What are you afraid of? Do your own thing well. No matter who wins or loses, can this boat leave the cook?"

Malvern curled his lips. "I'm sorry for you. If Goodwin can replace Mr. Orff, you promise that he can become the sailor on the ship. Now, whoever loses or wins is not you."

Zhang Heng doesn't like it. He won't stay on the sea lion all the time, and he doesn't care about his position. As long as he can learn something, even without the reminder of the old pirate Fraser, he won't stand on Goodwin's side, because he cares more about keeping a good relationship with those skilled old people than the new ones.

But he won't tell anyone about it.

This time, the rest time for the pirates was very short. In less than three days, the sea lion sailed and anchored again. Goodwin was not flustered, but had the feeling of being ready.

There is only one possibility that this situation will happen, that is, Orff is flustered and doesn't want to leave him time to lobby any more, but the black gunner doesn't care any more. Even if there is a little accident in Zhang Heng and Malvern, he has already got enough votes to support him to take the helmsman's position and become the number two character of the sea lion.

On the night of going to sea, Goodwin summoned all the people to the deck and began his speech with full confidence. "My brothers, I don't know if you have noticed that although our fighting is still brave and our skill is still vigorous, our income has declined in recent times when we go to sea. Don't you wonder why this situation occurs …”

Griffin, the bookkeeper on board, rushed into the storeroom in a hurry, where Orff was checking the supplies and fresh water reserves for the voyage.

"Bad news, Mr. Orff. Goodwin is agitating the crew to remove you!"

"So?" Orff checked the book one by one without looking up.

"So Shouldn't you do something? If you go on like this, your position as helmsman will be lost. " The bookkeeper stammered.

"Why do you say that?"

"I have reason to believe that Goodwin is well prepared this time. I heard that he has visited many people before, with new people as the main goal. If it is limited to five years, the ratio of new people to old people on the sea lion is 2:1, that is to say, he can get two-thirds of the votes." Griffin said quickly.Orff finally closed his inventory book and put it into the bookkeeper's arms. He encouraged, "well done. There's no problem with the accounts. Keep it up."

The latter was stunned by the speech.

"Well, I'm busy with the affairs of the outsider. Next, it's time for me to end the farce outside."

As Orff walked out of the cabin, the black gunner's speech came to an end Based on the above reasons, we have reason to suspect that Mr. Orff can no longer perform the duties of helmsman and safeguard the interests of the crew. "

His voice fell, only to find that there was no cheering around this time.

See Orff, in the latter years of accumulated prestige, the crowd automatically gave way to a road.

Although the two sides were rivals, the black gunner didn't want to lose his bearing. He cleared his throat and said politely, "Mr. Orff."

However, Orff, as if he had not seen him, glanced at all the sailors on the ship. He looked a little surprised, because the people he thought would be here did not appear, but it did not affect what he would do next.

He looked back and said, "I have to admit that I haven't paid enough attention to you recently. I have heard those private complaints about the recent decrease in booty. Some people suspect that I colluded with the captain and infringed on the interests of the crew. I can understand that this is also human nature."

He continued with a pause, "some people think that I am too old to fight bravely without this Mr. Goodwin. I don't deny that. As for the contradiction between the new man and the old man, every ship has it. No matter how to deal with it, one party always feels that he has been wronged. I see it, but I don't pay attention to it, so it's also my fault."

The crowd gradually became agitated. Everyone thought Orff would refute Goodwin's accusations one by one, but unexpectedly, he admitted them all.

What's this, ready to give up?
