The woman who sold the camera to Zuo Lan a few days ago, upholding a sense of justice, reprimanded the behavior of the auction. The items being auctioned today not only make them thieves, but most importantly, there are also many people from Taihui Country here.

"Mr. Captain, you are going too far. Have you forgotten that there are many people from our country on this ship? Your blatant theft is very rude."

As Taihui people, none of them left, just to ask the captain what the auction item meant.

"When I looked at the list, I felt something was wrong. At first I thought our country was going to auction the ship, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

"Captain, you are committing treason. I can tell you clearly here, Taihui, you can't go back."

"Captain, you'd better give us an explanation."

Zuo Lan carefully surveyed the crowd around him. Obviously, he couldn't take pictures of this information.

The auction became a mess. Amidst the scolding of the group, the captain's face was covered with sweat. He had no choice but to give up the auction and leave with the captain from Taihui.

This is considered a failed shoot.

Wu Peng realized the resistance of the matter, but he did not expect that the resistance of this group of people would be so great.

He could only leave with Zuo Lan angrily.

After returning to the dormitory, Wu Peng was in trouble. He thought for a long time before saying: "If not, just go to the captain and see if you can buy the information directly."

In this regard, Zuo Lan raised objections: "But we can't figure out now whether it is necessary to buy this information. Maybe it is a waste of money."

Wu Peng spread his hands: "Then what should we do? I think this is still an opportunity. There are no competitors, so we might be able to miss it."

"Is the risk worth taking?"

"It's worth it. After all, we have a long time here, so we can't come here in vain."

Zuo Lan fiddled with the camera on the table with a painful expression.

Wu Peng scratched his head: "You won't come again, will you?"

While they were thinking about countermeasures, there was a knock on the door of the dormitory.

"Please come in."

Zuo Lan said to the door.

The boatswain opened the door and came in, holding a bottle of wine in his hand.

The two people in the dormitory couldn't figure out the situation and were confused.

The boatswain explained: "This is a gift from our captain. He asked me to apologize to everyone on his behalf. This time it is our auctioneer's fault. Please forgive me."

Zuo Lanwu Peng looked at each other and smiled, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

Zuo Lan walked over and took the bottle of wine, and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "I am very interested in that ship. Can I talk to the captain?"

The boatswain was stunned at first, and then he quickly closed the dormitory door and confirmed with Zuo Lan again: "You want that ship? Are you kidding, you can't think clearly, right? That ship is a hot potato now. Curse.

Ah, aren't you afraid?"

"I have never believed in any curse in my life. Is it okay to introduce me to the captain?"

The boatswain seemed to be looking at a child who was failing, and after being silent for a long time, he still managed to hold back a series of dissuasion: "Forget it, you don't live on the sea, and you don't know some legends. The sea is very mysterious, and there is really a curse.

The most important thing is that after the ship becomes an exhibition hall, people will still die. Taihui's military has decided to sink her into the sea. In other words, even if you get the information, you may not get the ship. In the end, you will still get the ship.

A waste of money.

I feel that the captain from Taihui is a liar who specializes in defrauding money. Listen to me, the ship is not worth it, why not spend some money on your lover?"

Zuo Lan chuckled after hearing this. He put his hand on the bosun's shoulder. It was obvious that the bosun had a good impression of him.

After he finished laughing, he looked back at Wu Peng and said solemnly: "After hearing what you said, I am really interested. Please tell me about it to our captain."

"You, you."

The boatswain stared at Zuo Lan for a long time before reluctantly leaving.

After waiting in the dormitory for another whole day, around evening, the bosun came again.

The two people in the dormitory greeted him happily and asked about the outcome of the matter.

The boatswain first sighed, then shook his head: "Don't make any noise, follow me."

Zuo Lan and Wu Peng looked at each other and followed the boatswain.

They walked quickly along the way, trying to avoid making noise as much as possible while maintaining a traveling speed.

Until the boatswain led them to a deckhouse.

The boatswain opened the door and warned: "I will be outside. When you have finished talking, I will knock on the door three times."

"As for that?"

"Too bad, it wouldn't be fun if someone found out."

As the door closed, this cabin came into view. During the day, the captain was sitting in front of a round table. A few beams of light came in through the portholes, and a dim oil lamp swayed in front of the captain.

All three people wore masks and took their seats one by one.

As soon as he sat down, the arrogant-looking captain eagerly got to the point: "How much money do you have?"

Zuo Lan didn't say anything, and Wu Peng didn't say anything either. The three of them just looked at each other.

Finally, the captain couldn't bear it anymore and said again: "Why are you so interested in that ship?"

"Friend, are you mistaken?" Zuo Lan said with a smile, "You are interested in that ship, right? We are much more interested in you than that ship. I especially want to know why you are interested in that ship."

The ship is so persistent.”

"I can't tell you this right now."

"Okay, let's get to the point. I want to see the value of what you're selling. Otherwise, we won't bid."

"Okay, let me tell you." The captain leaned back on the chair, "I have the clear time and place of the ship's sinking in my hands, and I also know how to bypass the guards in the exhibition hall, and I also know how to

This ship is sailing. As long as you are willing to keep the ship, I can build it for you, provided that I also want to be the captain and pay a sum of money."

"No more?"

"No more."

Hearing this, Zuo Lan and Wu Peng laughed loudly. They never expected that the captain in front of them was such an idiot.

This also made Zuo Lan more curious. He smiled and asked the wise captain: "Are you related to the captain here? Otherwise, would someone help you like this? Isn't he your father?"

The captain blushed with embarrassment from the two of them. If it weren't for the mask behind him, his expression would have been wonderful.

After hearing that the two had laughed enough, the captain took the initiative to confess: "My father knows this captain, and because of their friendship, the captain is willing to help me."

"Then why doesn't he just help you get the boat? Then he becomes a wanted criminal with you."

"This..." The captain no longer knew how to answer. He said in an angry tone: "If you don't want it, then please leave."

Zuo Lan raised his hands and quickly relaxed the atmosphere: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, but you have to tell us why you are so persistent."

"For revenge."

"revenge?"

The captain picked up the wick of the oil lamp, struggled for a moment, and then slowly said: "To avenge my crew members, they did not enjoy the treatment of heroes, and their families did not get any pension. Everyone said it was a curse.

In fact, it is not true. There were no mysterious deaths of the crew members. They were killed by pirates. And the rumors you heard are also false. The people who died in the exhibition hall were all family members of my crew members.

We were obscured by heavy fog during a patrol, and therefore lost contact with the fleet. Because we disappeared so suddenly, many people thought that we disappeared out of thin air.

Of course, weird things also happened. Our compass failed in the fog. When we broke out of the fog, we couldn't locate our direction for a period of time.

Being trapped in the fog, our ship could have gone in any direction."

Zuo Lan asked: "Didn't you anchor?"

"No, it was all caused by my arrogance. I didn't think such a fog would stop us, so I ordered to continue moving forward. After we left the fog, we used many methods, such as ocean currents and the sun, to determine where we were.

general location.

We decided to return and try to get in touch with the fleet. What a coincidence, the radio also failed. Just behind our ship, we can see some small boats following us. Those are pirates. We attack them all year round, but no matter how hard we attack them, we can’t.

I can’t finish the fight.”

"Wait a minute!" Zuo Lan interrupted the story again, "Did you just mention the radio? What is that thing?"

The captain looked at Zuo Lan in surprise at first, and then he felt relieved after thinking about it. He explained: "It's normal if you don't know. Now, this is still military equipment, but it is not kept secret. It is a communication device. I

How can I explain it to you? It means to emit pulse signals into the air and emit the required information by adjusting the wavelength. The shorter the wavelength and the higher the frequency, the more messages are emitted. That’s probably what it means.”

"I... don't understand... at all."

"Let me make it simple." The captain wanted to skip this popular science link quickly, "That is to say, didn't we use letters to send messages in the past? With the advent of wireless, the distance that used to be ten days, twenty days or even longer can be covered in the blink of an eye.

can be passed on.

For example, take the ongoing war as an example. It takes two months to transfer intelligence back and forth between the enemies, but it only takes tens of minutes for us to write it. There is such a set of equipment on this ship. Please, can I continue talking?

Is it done?"

Wu Peng was much more interested in this kind of high-tech equipment than Zuo Lan. He asked again: "Then how to send it?"

"Just use electricity. Please stop interrupting me, okay?"

Wu Peng stood up and said to Zuo Lan: "You continue to listen, I will go out and take a look."

Needless to say, Zuo Lan also knew what Wu Peng was doing. He planned to study something he had never seen before, and this kind of thing would play a decisive role in a war.

When Wu Peng left the deckhouse, Zuo Lan extended a friendly hand.
