Bringing the Farm to Live in Another World

Chapter 381: Arrival at Port

Although Little Gold's fury cost Zhao Hai a three-masted warship, it was not a big deal for him since these things were essentially free gains. The most important part was that he finally understood Little Gold's strength, and now Zhao Hai also realized why those gorillas listened to Little Gold so well; he truly was the strongest among them.

Zhao Hai hugged Little Gold and suddenly burst into laughter, saying, “Good job, Little Gold! But remember next time, don't get angry for no reason; it’s too frightening.”

Little Gold looked at Zhao Hai with confusion, chirping a couple of times as if asking why he shouldn't be angry. Seeing his adorable expression made Zhao Hai laugh even harder; he really loved Little Gold's looks.

Laura and the others also regained their composure, finding Little Gold's appearance quite amusing. His innocent big eyes completely contrasted with the raging King Kong from just moments ago.

At this time, the three ships had been fully controlled by Zhao Hai. They were now Zhao Hai's ships, and he immediately instructed them to take down their pirate flags before storing the ships into his space.

He didn't want anyone to know he had this many ships as it could attract unwanted attention, which would be detrimental to his future development.

Even though Zhao Hai was developing smoothly and had a good partnership with the Karlqi Family, it was precisely because he didn't pose a threat to them. If the Karlqi Family discovered that he had the power to threaten them, would they still cooperate with him as they did now? Zhao Hai had his doubts.

There’s a saying in China, “While you cannot prevent others from having malicious intentions, you must be cautious.” This was especially true when dealing with large families like the Karlqi Family; he had to remain vigilant or it would lead to disaster.

One should never trust the feelings of big families; instead, you must believe that your interests align with theirs. Only then will they support you; otherwise, you will receive no backing—no feelings, only interests.

Therefore, Zhao Hai would not reveal all his cards. If it weren't for not wanting Smith and the others to know about his space, he wouldn't have needed to go through the trouble of finding a small island close to the deep sea to serve as a base; he could have just released live firefly fish.

However, Zhao Hai didn't do that. He wanted to create some trouble so that others couldn't figure out his cards. Only by doing this could he ensure his safety.

He was thankful he had taken this approach; otherwise, he would have missed out on Little Gold and the Vajra Tree, both of which would have been significant losses for him.

The pirate incident had settled down, and Zhao Hai had transformed those pirates into high-level undead beings. He also understood the background of the situation.

These pirates belonged to a pirate crew known as the Black Fish Pirate Crew, consisting of four three-masted ships. The reason they attacked Zhao Hai and his group was that they had gone to Monkey Head Island.

Although Monkey Head Island was a place sailors generally avoided, it was still an enticing location. When the pirates noticed Zhao Hai’s group heading in that direction and coming out unscathed, they naturally wanted to see what they had acquired there.

It is known that on the continent, the most valuable things are not necessarily treasures; sometimes, a very peculiar magical beast might be worth a lot, and it would be worth the risk to pursue that.

The primary factor was, just as Laura said, they had their eyes on the Peach Blossom, a five-masted ironclad ship, which was incredibly important for a pirate force.

However, they did not expect to provoke a magical beast. The moment Little Gold erupted in anger, the pirates knew they were doomed; those who wished to surrender sadly found that Zhao Hai did not give them that opportunity.

After defeating the pirates, they continued their journey without encountering any further attacks. Ordinary pirates would see a three-masted warship and a five-masted ironclad ship and would steer clear; they wouldn’t take that risk.
