Chapter 424: In-depth cooperation

Crewe was badly injured.
In his decades-long business career, although he was also in danger many times, he has to say that this time was the closest he had to the ghost gate.
He had broken several ribs in his chest, and his body had a high fever. The most terrible thing was that the werewolf family could not give him too good treatment, even if the other party tried everything.
In the end, it was still with the strong will of Crewe that he barely supported it.
"Mr. Crewe, you just woke up, the werewolf guys said, this is a miracle!"
"The old man wouldn't be willing to close his eyes until my kid didn't get married and gave me a grandson ..."
Crewe tried to relax the atmosphere in the tent with a joke, but his efforts were destined to be futile.
More than a dozen large ships carrying cargo, barely docked, only the one he was sitting in, and most of the materials on it had been discarded.
In the face of the desperate pursuit of the pirates, after exhausting his means, Crewe could only order the discarded cargo on the ship to reduce the load and increase the speed of the ship.
Even so, it seems that only a few dozen of them survived in the end.
"What happened to my men?" Crewe just woke up and was still very tired, but he couldn't help caring about his subordinates.
More than a dozen large ships, sailors and guards, numbered in the hundreds. Today, more than 90% of the ships fall into the hands of the pirates, and the life on them is unknown. For Crewe, the rest must not be involved again.
"Mr. Crewe rest assured that the werewolves have settled them. Except for a few seriously injured boatmen who are still receiving treatment, the rest are in good condition."
The so-called good, but relatively speaking.
Just escaped the disaster. Even before going to sea, some people were prepared for it, but those who escaped from the dead still inevitably feel palpitated. It is estimated that for a long time, their mood will be very lost.
"Where's the ship we're on?" After ensuring that the escaped men were properly settled, Crewe became concerned about the ship.
"Although the werewolf tried everything, it eventually sank."
Crewe heard that he didn't feel many accidents, but his loss was still inevitable.
Before he was unconscious, the merchant ship he was riding on became crumbling because he had loved several pirate attacks.
Crewe knows that in this case, the ships may be silent at any time, and they can land ashore smoothly, which is already God's blessing.
But even if he got ashore, he would face a series of troubles after losing the ship to the sea. For example, he lost the means to return to the Greek Empire!
According to the original plan, after the merchant ship successfully arrived at the werewolf port, it only needed to unload the cargo, then handle some trivial matters, replenish fresh water, and then return to the voyage, and then proceed to the next round of transactions.
But now, the pirate attack has lost all the merchant ships under the name of the Klein Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps, when the news of Crewe's long-lasting return came to Carlworth City, the family would judge their accident and then think of a way again. Raise merchant ships and send someone over.
But this time around, the wasted time is gone!
On this trip, the Klein Chamber of Commerce has been considered to be hurting, and coupled with wasted time, I don't know how long it will take to make up for the loss.
As the person in charge, Crewe was filled with guilt.
If he was more decisive at that time, after discovering the trace of the pirates, he ordered the whole to reduce the load and escape, even if they would still lose a large amount of materials, but compared to now, the situation is undoubtedly much better.
Of course, this can only be thought about.
After all, even if he was willing, the boatman on the ship would not agree to this action.
For those scared bed workers, where is the last time they will lose their goods, after all, the Kline Chamber of Commerce will link their bonuses to the profits made by the trade.
"Mr. Crewe, if you have the spirit, we always know what you have experienced at sea."
Although there were other crew members, after learning that Crewe was injured, they kept by his side and did not have time to ask other people.
Besides, the words of ordinary shipmen and guards are not as credible as those of the person in charge.
"Pirates, pirates of pirates, they are driving ships of different specifications, and they flew towards us ..."
Crewe was very calm when he recalled the encounter at sea.
This weather-resistant steward is far stronger than others think. Now that things have happened, for him, how to make up is the most important thing.
Moreover, there are still many companions in the hands of the pirates, and Crewe has to invigorate and find a way to rescue them.
"It seems to be headed by a woman, known as Aimar. Her pirates are extremely brutal. When they chase us, even their companions will obstruct them without hesitation."
The name Aimar has not been heard by A Er and A San.
But when the word pirate came out of Crewe's mouth, they inexplicably sounded what happened in the kingdom of Leica.
For a moment, a flash of aura flashed through Ah Er Ah.
"Looks like the two seem to be thinking?"
Ah Er and Ah San glanced at each other. Originally, they didn't seem to tell each other this kind of speculation without evidence, but Crewe was the most important partner, so they finally spoke.
"We suspect that it was no accident that your merchant ships met pirates."
"In fact, I think so." Crewe nodded, and then said, "Before we came, we had collected enough intelligence and set up a relatively safe route, enough to keep us from those cruel pirates. , But in fact, we not only encountered it, but also ran into them in the most unlikely place. "
Although the sea area where the accident happened was still not far from the werewolf race, the problem is that there is no human territory and there are no islands inhabited by them all around. So, what are the islands there? It was no accident.
But for specific reasons, Crewe couldn't guess, after all, he still had too little information.
But looking at the faces of A Er and A San, Crewe knew that he might be able to learn something that he didn't know from their mouths.
"The two guessed who did something to us?"
"Bimon."
"You mean the royal family of the Orc Empire?"
"It should be them." Ah San nodded, and saw that Ah Er didn't stop himself, so he continued to say: "Last time we also met pirates, Princess A Tan became their captive, but in the end He was safely sent to the imperial capital, and according to the information provided by Princess Ajue afterwards, the Beamon family should support this group of human pirates in secret and help them.
"You mean, the pirates who attacked us were the people who captured Princess Atan?"
"Not sure. In fact, according to the information provided by the princess, the head of the pirates should be a man, but other than that, I can't figure out who else can trend the pirates to do it for you."
Although Asan wasn't sure if the pirates belonged to the same group as they had encountered before, he did not doubt that the Beamon family had a reason to operate on merchant ships, which made Crewe somewhat surprised.
"Mr. Crewe is human, and it is normal to not understand our orc empire."
This should not be something disclosed to human beings, but one side and the other side are in a cooperative relationship and it is necessary to explain it to Crewe. On the other hand, Ah II and Ah Sam do not feel that this matter can be concealed.
After all, even if they didn't say that, once they returned to the human world, Crewe had the opportunity to ask their Princess A Tan.
Based on A's and A's understanding of her own princess, the latter will not hide it.
Therefore, what is doomed to be concealed might as well be explained as soon as possible, which will affect the relationship between the two sides.
"There are many royal families in the Orc Empire, and Beamon is one of them."
Crewe nodded. This was public information. He already knew it, but what happened next was beyond his expectation.
"The royal family of the orc empire is not fixed. Although the conditions are somewhat harsh, the royal family has changed over the centuries. The fox family has become a priest because of its superb status as a production priest. In addition, it cooperates with your Guild today to become more powerful. In the eyes of the fox, the foxes have already reached the qualifications for promotion to the royal family. "
Crewe got it.
In the past, despite their detached status, the Fox family was still under the royal family, otherwise they would not almost become a vassal of the Beamon family.
Today, the development of the Fox clan has surpassed the imagination of the Beamon clan. The current royal family cannot easily allow an original younger brother to set foot in their field and divide the power in their hands.
According to A Er, all orcs and royal families have reasons to act. The reason why they particularly suspect the Beamon family is because they are too deeply involved with human pirates.
"Mr. Crewe, we are very sorry for what happened to you this time, but you can rest assured that it is because of the Fox family, and we will properly compensate you for your loss."
This time, the merchant ship of the Kline Chamber of Commerce was attacked by pirates. It seems that it is not directly related to the Fox family, but Ah Er still offered to compensate.
For the Fox family, gold coins were originally moldy accumulated in warehouses, and maintaining the relationship with the Kline Chamber of Commerce was the most important thing.
Seriously, Ah Er is very worried that if the Klein Merchant learns the reasons for this, he will not interrupt the transaction with them.
After all, no one wants to be stared at their lives all day long.
In order to avoid this, Ah Er did not hesitate to launch a gold coin offensive.
In fact, Crewe really had some ideas in the beginning, but after all, he had seen the businessmen with strong winds and waves, and was keenly aware of the business opportunities.
The deal with the Fox clan has already made the Kline Chamber of Commerce profitable.
What if the Foxes could really become the nobility of the Orc Empire? Taking it a step closer, what if the foxes take the throne? How much money can the Kline Chamber of Commerce make?
Of course, although the gains are huge, the danger of operating this thing is equally great.
As said before, the current royal family will not do anything to touch the fundamental interests of the fox family, and will definitely try their best to cut off their promotion channels.
In this case, using human pirates is a relatively gentle method for them, after all, they don't want to completely turn their faces with the Fox family.
But if things really reach the point of irreversibility, perhaps those imperial royal families will make their own shots.
This is an option that is directly proportional to the dangers and benefits.
If it were an ordinary person, he might have run away with his tail in his hands, but who is Crewe?
Steward of the Kline Chamber of Commerce!
What is a chamber of commerce?
Of course, it's just for making money.
Businessmen are crazy, as long as they have enough interests, they can even send themselves to the gallows!
So after Crewe groaned, he immediately made a choice!
Although he was only a steward, he believed that the family would agree with his decision.
"Aer, I want to meet with your patriarch personally. Can I arrange it?"
Crucian struck up his spirit and tried to get in touch with the fox clan through Er Er, because he wanted to confirm for himself whether the fox clan really had the ambition to become a royal clan.
And he will also suggest that the family adjust its relationship with the Fox clan based on the answer to this question.
"No, UU reads www.uukanshu.com because I'm here."
The tent was raised again before Crewe could get the answer from Er Er's mouth.
Fox patriarch Afra came in and followed her, along with a strong werewolf man.
"Introduction, I'm the chief of the werewolf tribe, Marcus!"
"How did the two patriarchs appear here at the same time?" Although Crewe already had the answer, he couldn't help but want to confirm from the other side.
"I originally planned to come and talk to Mr. Crewe personally. When I arrived, I heard about the encounter between Mr. and the caravan. I guarantee that regardless of whether the merchant ship was attacked by the Beamon family, the Klein Chamber of Commerce will The losses suffered will be shared by the Fox and Werewolf races! "Afra said with a smile.
Crewe heard, his eyes lightened slightly.
He didn't care too much that the other party would take the initiative to bear the losses of the Klein Chamber of Commerce. Although the loss was indeed large, as long as he maintained the trading relationship with the Fox family, he could make it all in one or two trips.
What Crewe cares about is that the patriarch Avra ​​just said.
When Afra said of compensation, she was not referring to the fox, but the werewolf!
Even if he didn't know much about the orc empire, Crewe knew that the relationship between the werewolves and the foxes was originally not good, but the relationship was eased only because of their interests.
But now, the two patriarchs seem to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, which makes Crewe have to think more.
"Mr. Crewe, the Fox clan hopes to reach a deeper cooperation with your chamber of commerce, and the Fox clan needs more support!"
"This is also the expectations of the werewolves." Marcus patted his strong breasts, adding.
Crewe no longer needs to ask the Fox family whether they have ambitions. After all, the other party has already given the answer. Now, what he needs to think about is how to help the Fox family reach the summit!
