Chapter two hundred and twenty-four partners

After the tanker drove out of the dangerous sea area and contacted the transit docked on the high seas, the tanker stopped, waiting for the small boats placed on the transit ship to take Gao Yang and the other six on the transit ship.

The so-called transit ship is also a helpless choice. The reason why the crew members on the merchant ship are unable to resist when facing pirates is that the main reason is that the crew members of the merchant ship are just civilians is that they cannot have weapons on the merchant ship due to restrictions of international conventions.

If you keep driving on the high seas, no one will take care of the cargo ship even if it is equipped with missiles and cannons. However, if you enter a port in another country, once someone finds that there are weapons on the ship, there will be big trouble. The same is true for armed guards. On the high seas, armed guards can use any weapon, but it will not work if they have to bring weapons to the ashore or enter a country's territorial waters. As for ports, there is no need to mention them.

If you don’t plan to abide by the law, it’s okay to bring a brush without weapons at will. However, the sea armed guard is still a legal and highly-watched profession, so the sea armed guards must be subject to law and cannot bring guns to the ashore. In order to solve this problem, the transit ship came into being.

The transit ships are docked on the high seas and are operated by private people. When armed guards board and get off the merchant ship, they are located near the main channel on the high seas. Merchant ships only need to get close to the transit ship to pick up and drop off the merchant ship, instead of having to let the armed guards board and get off the merchant ship at the port.

The existence of transit ships not only avoids legal problems, but also makes it more convenient. Transit ships dock in waters that will not be threatened by pirates. As long as there is no threat, the merchant ship will put down the armed guards without having to take armed guards all the way to the port of the destination.

Gao Yang and their transit ship were modified from an old cruise ship with a displacement of 2,000 tons. After contacting the transit ship, the transit ship sent a small boat to pick Gao Yang and others back on the transit ship.

Everything went smoothly. When I said goodbye to the escort tanker and boarded the boat, it was already past three o'clock in the morning. After Gao Yang got on the transit from a special gangway, he had just walked to the deck, but someone heard a loud voice saying, "You are finally back. According to the time I expected, you should have come back two hours ago. You have not encountered any trouble, are you?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man in his forties, named Anton Seer Kuta, a Scottish American and a partner of Gao Yang and others this time.

Antonsel had been a sailor and became a first mate, and then finally became a captain. She was so familiar with everything on the sea that she could no longer be familiar with. However, Antonsel had just achieved one of his major goals in life. She finally became a captain, but not two years later. Antonsel resigned from a shipping company he had worked for for a long time.

The reason why he refused to be a captain again was related to Anton Sail's encounter with pirates in the Gulf of Aden and was almost kidnapped by the pirates and ships.

At that time, there were armed guards on Anton Sail's ship, but the situation he encountered was a little different when he encountered pirates. At least twenty small boats of pirates surrounded his boats, and the pirates were about to board the ship. The four armed guards on the ship saw that there were many pirates, and they planned to surrender. Anyway, the pirates in Somalia were also very principled, that is, to pay for money but not life. Even if they surrender, the crew would not be in danger of their lives. And these security personnel were very likely to be released directly by the pirates, so the four security personnel only fired a few shots, which attracted the pirates' random guns, and the four security guards actually ceased to wait for the pirates to board the ship.

Fortunately, at a critical moment, a helicopter sent by a warship lifted the siege for Antonsel's ship, so Antonsel did not let Antonsel fall into the hands of the pirates. Antonsel, who was frightened and thrilled, also saw business opportunities from his experience, and thus made up his mind to change his career immediately.

Antonsell, who no longer became the captain, decided to set up a maritime security company. Although he is completely a layman in the security and defense industry, Antonsell also has his own advantages. He has run a boat all his life, and he knows many people and can easily get business. Even if he can only take over the business of the shipping company he used to work for, it will be enough to make him a lot of money.

Antonsel did not have his own personnel and did not know the tricks of the security and defense industry, but he knew Downey's father, and Antonsel naturally got involved with Downey's younger brother, and things went smoothly afterwards. Gao Yang and the others became Antonsel's collaborators.

Antonsel is responsible for the business and the daily life of Gao Yang and his team on the transit ship. Gao Yang and his team are responsible for the force. As for the money they earn, they can share the money equally, and then give 5% of the total amount to Downey.

The reason why both Gao Yang and Antonsel gave Downey Jr. 5% of the money was because the security company established in Antonsel City was not a serious registration and did not join the international NGO organization Maritime Security Association (Sa fans). To put it bluntly, it was in the name of a maritime security company and was engaged in the work of mercenaries. Only in this way can it be free from legal restrictions and the international code of conduct (ICOC) of private security service providers. Otherwise, Antonsel would not be able to make a promise to absolutely guarantee the safety of merchant ships when taking on the job.

Gao Yang and the others agreed that as long as Downey Jr. Downey Jr. found a task for them, they would pay Downey Jr. Downey Jr., and because the company was illegal, Antonsell had to transfer the money to his account safely. Downey Jr. needed to launder him the money, so Antonsell also needed to give Downey Jr. 5% of the money.

The cooperation with Antonsel is still very pleasant. Antonsel is indeed a good person. Unlike an ordinary seafarer captain, he always talks swearing and cannot live without alcohol. On the contrary, Antonsel always has a smile on his face and takes good care of Gao Yang and the others. As long as Gao Yang and the others come back from their mission, no matter what time it is, they will always see Antonsel waiting to greet them. Only when he sees Gao Yang and the others return safely can Antonsel feel at ease.

Gao Yang smiled at Antonsel and said, "I encountered a little trouble, and I couldn't even call it a trouble. When I met a pirate who was a little blind, I was scared away by us."

Antonsel looked at the group standing behind Gao Yang. After confirming that no one was injured, Antonsel nodded and said, "It would be fine if no one was injured. If there is such a situation next time, call me to report my safety."

At this time, Choi Bo and Choi Bo smiled and said, "Captain, don't worry about us. We are not children, and you are not a resentful woman who hopes that her husband will go home. Listen to me, don't stay up late and wait for us next time."

Antonsel smiled bitterly and said, "I have been the first mate for too many years. This is a position that needs to be worried. If I don't arrange my work as a responsible person, I can't sleep at all. I'm afraid my habit will not be changed for a while. Okay, now I'll ask if the pirates you meet are a group of guys who call themselves the Skeleton Gang. You have been leaving this transit ship for a few days. In the past few days, the transit ship here has been talking about the Skeleton Gang that suddenly popped up. I heard the British people's meaning, and they seem to be doing something big."
