Wait! Raine suddenly woke up.

The treasure map showed the island's location, but there was only a big red cross on the map, no indication of the location of the treasure chest! That means even if they arrived at that place had to do a carpet search. But the island was now silent in the sea, and the carpet search was too difficult.

No wonder Goldwell could be so generous to show them the treasure map.

Raine intends to observe again.

Avril held the treasure map pretending to look at it for a while. It's a bit strange to look at it again, so she stood up and returned the treasure map to Goldwell.

"By the way, Boss Goldwell, you gave me the treasure map just like that. Aren't you afraid that I will remember the location of the hidden treasure?" Avril was unexpectedly thinking about this, too, worthy of being Raine's acting Captain.

"Hahahaha, Captain Avril, you are joking. The treasure map is generally divided into two parts. Here only recorded the general location of the treasure. To find the specific location of the treasure hidden need to see this treasure log. This also recorded the traps around the treasure."

At the same time, Avril and Raine marveled at Goldwell's old cunning.

"Well, let's discuss first. After all, I just changed ships. There is not much money on me. Thirty pearls are also a bit expensive." Avril said with a shake of her head.

Goldwell's slightly embarrassed smile still said atmospherically, "No problem, but Captain Avril, if you want to buy it, you have to do it before it's too late, don't let someone else buy it then."

"Okay."After saying that, Avril and the others went back to their clear corner to dock.

Now that everyone was at the mission release point and just about no one was here, Avril came to the bow and sat down.

Avril and Raine said at the same time.

"Captain, I think only an idiot would buy that treasure map."

"Let's buy that chart!"

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Raine had just said he wanted to buy it, and Avril said that only an idiot would buy it as if it was tailor-made.

"Ahem, Captain, I didn't mean you ..." Avril rubbed her nose and said awkwardly.

"......" Raine was speechless.

"Well, captain, do you really want to buy it?" Terry and the others also came over. Only White was chasing and playing with the little Booty. They sat side by side with Avril. Everyone also leaned together on the bow, "Captain, there really is no island around the trading market. I used to fish with Armin and Arsan, and we never saw an island. "

"Right, Captain, even if you do find the location, it's hard to say whether the treasure is still there or not."

"Captain, we only have 29 pearls now, and we can't afford it."

The crew was united in their opinion.

Raine deliberated for a while, he was able to find the location, but Terry was right. Whether there is treasure is another story.

Or just go to the treasure location? But the bottom of the sea is still too dangerous with no treasure log. The complex terrain is difficult to search for a comprehensive, plus there are traps. It's too dangerous.

After thinking for a long time, Raine also didn't decide. He asked, "Terry, this kind of treasure is probably worth how much?"

"Hard to say, but most of these low-level treasures are left by small forces or individuals. They are generally worth no more than 500 pearls, but we can't rule out someone being particularly lucky." Terry said.

"500 pearls ... even if there are no 500 pearls, 200 is okay, with 30 pearls bet 200 pearls ... hiss ~."

This feeling is similar to gambling.

"Now we also have nothing to spend money on..."

Before Raine could finish his sentence, he was immediately countered by the crew.

"Why not? Captain, you can't tell the cost of food and fuel without being the head of a household, huh? I also want to talk to you. We need to buy a boiler. We can't eat dried fish always in a long voyage, right?" Avril immediately said.

"Now we have foot thrusters, but Dad has bad legs. Maybe he can't use the thrusters. It just so happens that I saw another sale of wooden power arms ..." said Armin.

Terry also said, "The ship lacks some necessary living supplies. Soon to be winter, we may need to add some quilts."

Raine instantly felt a headache. It looks like there are quite a lot of places that need to spend money.

After thinking for a while, Raine suddenly thought of a question, "Since we are so poor, why don't we gamble when we have such a good opportunity?"

Raine looked at the crew, "If we lose, there's nothing to say about this. Let's keep doing the hard work. It should be okay to prepare these things in time for winter, but if we win, all these problems can be solved!"

"But Captain, are you sure you can find the treasure?" Arsan asked with a frown.

"I'm sure I can find the treasure!" Raine said with certainty, "In fact, I've already found it! I just need the treasure log to know the mechanism and find the exact location of the treasure."

"What! Captain, you've already found it?" The crowd all looked back in shock at the ship's board.

"What else? Do you guys really think I'm an idiot?"

Several people's attitudes suddenly changed, "Oops, Captain, you should tell us earlier! We just didn't want you to spend money frivolously. Those things to be bought won't cost many pearls."

Raine sighed long, "I think you all have itchy skin, right? Do you want to go to the sea for a few days?"

Avril and others spat out their tongues.

Raine didn't have time to pay attention to them. He muttered to himself, "We're still short of a pearl ... hey, I shouldn't have let you guys go shopping for food in the first place!"

"No, no, no, Captain, don't be so ruthless." Avril immediately balked at Raine.

Terry thought about it and said, "Captain, in my experience, this treasure map consignment price is unlikely to exceed 20 pearls. Goldwell is estimated to have secretly added a lot. Let's wait a few days for no one to buy. He will naturally lower the price."

"Terry, are you sure?" Raine asked.

"Sure, none of the ships here have the ability to explore the seabed. Rest assured, it absolutely can't be sold! Captain, if you are not sure, I'll keep an eye on him these days."

........................

Two days later, Goldwell was still peddling charts, but unfortunately, people were only concerned about other tasks.

At this time, Raine rowed over in a leisurely manner.

As soon as he saw Avril and the others, Goldwell immediately perked up, "Captain Avril. You're here. How about it, are you interested in that treasure map?"

Avril stretched her head to look at the side of the transport task and said inadvertently, "Oh, we discussed later, we think it is impossible to find, and the price is also so high that we wouldn't buy it. Boss Goldwell, what's a good transport task today?"

Goldwell was obviously a little disappointed, but it seemed he didn't want to give up yet.

"Captain Avril, well, can I come to your ship? I have something to discuss with you."

"Something? Is this a good mission?" Avril had a strange look on her face.

"Uh ... well, it's a mission, sort of."

Not much time, Goldwell threw down those guys looking at the mission and ran to Avril's ship, "Let's talk in the cabin." Goldwell said mysteriously.

All this has not eluded Raine's eyes, with his years of shopping experience to see, with his crew's brain, the Godwell will be cut a high price as if cut off a layer of skin ...

"Too cruel ..." Raine could not help but feel some sympathy for Goldwell.
