Chapter 1193 - 699: O’hara Products, Only the Best! (Part 2)

"Boss, since this ship is so good, why didn’t you bring it out before? I remember you said that two fast ships were lost during trade, and those were fast ships."

The new recruit asked, "Why bring it out when going to a dangerous place like O’Hara?"

"Nonsense, can other places compare to O’Hara? No matter how powerful my ship is, it can’t withstand attention. In other seas, if damaged, it might be over! But it’s different in O’Hara!"

The merchant said, eyes gleaming, "As long as I reach O’Hara’s territory, even if the ship is destroyed and the cargo is plundered, it doesn’t matter. The disaster will send someone to take revenge for us. Maybe I can earn another fortune! Just those bounties might be worth more than my goods!"

Without comparison, there’s no harm.

If the ship is destroyed elsewhere, then it’s really gone, leaving nothing behind.

But if destroyed in O’Hara’s domain...

Hey!

Guess what!

Win big time!

Even if someone dies, compensation money can still reach their family!

If by luck they don’t die, then they’ve hit the jackpot. Not only can the goods be sold off, but huge compensation can be obtained!

O’Hara’s business environment is so good it makes him cry!

"Is there no risk at all?" the new recruit asked.

"Of course there are risks. That’s ensuring we successfully enter O’Hara and reach our destination safely."

The merchant laughed, "But it’s okay, my ship can’t be caught by average pirates."

"What if someone like you also bought an O’Hara ship?"

"In O’Hara’s territory, there’s nothing to fear, you can act like you didn’t see those ships. The better ones you can even invite for a drink. But once outside, it’s hard to say, then it’s each to their own skills. Risk is certainly there, but high risk comes with high reward!"

The merchant sighed, "It’s a pity, I’ve made too little money these days, damn war, that Red Hair and Blackbeard are too disruptive. Fortunately, the disaster handled them, otherwise..."

As he spoke, he really shed tears, "Otherwise, I couldn’t repay my loan!"

"Boss! Aren’t you wealthy?!" the new recruit said incredulously, "Why do you still have loans?"

"I have no money! I started as a small merchant, back then O’Hara’s rules hadn’t radiated throughout, only valid on the main island. At that time, I got lucky, in the sea area planned on the main island was robbed by pirates and that ’ghost man’ gave me everything including the cargo, ship, and a head. With my savings, borrowed from the villagers, I barely gathered a hundred million Belly and paid the ship’s down payment."

"The loan for this ship I took from ten years! Ten years! The disaster gave us a 10% interest, I have to pay eight hundred million Belly!"

"Eight hundred million! Even selling my entire family wouldn’t be worth this penny!"

Saying this, the merchant was filled with regret.

"Boss, can’t you just not pay back? That’s the sea..."

The word ’pirate’ hadn’t left the new recruit’s mouth when he felt a chill through his body. He turned around to see that half the people on the ship were giving him cold glances, while the other half looked at him as if he was some ancient relic, fearful and amazed.

"Throw him into the sea."

The merchant pointed, and a burly guard came over, lifted the new recruit by the back collar, and walked him towards the ship’s side.

"Boss! I misspoke! Spare me, spare me! Don’t you remember, we’re blood relatives!" The new recruit’s legs struggled constantly, shouting loudly.

"Throw him into the sea!"

The merchant said coldly through clenched teeth.

Splosh!

Very soon, the new recruit plopped into the seawater with a soft splash.

But then the ship also came to a stop.

In the tumultuous environment of the New World, the sea area is not safe, and this new recruit is not very good at swimming, quickly disappearing into the water after some flailing.

That’s when the merchant waved his hand, "Pull him up."

A big net was thrown from the side of the ship, fishing the new recruit back up.

Once back on the deck, the recruit first spewed out a big mouthful of water, coughing and vomiting on the side.

"If you weren’t related to me, I could’ve killed you for that comment. How can you be a merchant without a steady mouth? In O’Hara, if you say the wrong thing, there’s no remedy! What do you think pirates are? Annoyances?! They’re a bunch who don’t care about anything!"

The merchant walked up to the recruit and said, "Hopefully, this time you’ve learned a lesson, think before you speak! What do you think the disaster is? Let me tell you, across the whole ocean, in the entire world! No one can owe him money!"

...

"No one can owe me money!"

Elsewhere on the sea, two pirate ships faced off against each other!

The bow of one pirate ship bore the head of a giant beast, and a stout man with hair pointing in every direction like spikes stepped on the railing, bent over with a hand on his gun, shouting, "It’s time to pay up! Even pirates have morals!"

"Bullshit! I paid your money a long time ago!"

On the other ship, equally with lush hair but unusually smooth, a captain confidently stood on the railing of his ship and shouted, "You only lent me twenty million Belly! I paid you long ago, why do you want me to pay more!"

"Don’t give me that! We agreed before, we’d go out for fun, I’d pay once, you’d pay once! And yet every time I meet you, you say your earnings were bad, couldn’t pay! I footed the bill every time, aren’t you counting them? Every time claiming you had no money! Do you think I’m blind? Look at the deck piled up with stolen goods!"
