Chapter 106

In the early morning, all the pirates in the sailor's cabin were washing noisily. Suddenly someone rushed down from the deck and said, "see the land! We're home! "

The pirates were stunned, then burst out a burst of cheers, and ran to the deck.

Zhang Heng and Malvern were also caught in the crowd and led all the way out of the cabin. When they came to the bow of the ship, they also saw the harbor in the distance. During this time, they had heard the sailors on the ship mention this place more than once.

They praise it, curse it, praise it, and despise it, but there's no doubt that everyone can't do without it.

Nassau, the capital of the later Bahamas, is located on the northernmost island of New Providence in the western Indian Ocean. It has the best harbor in the whole Bahamas. The indigenous people on the island are lucayos, who have lived a life of fishing and hunting for generations. Columbus discovered it in 1492, and then in 1647, the first group of European immigrants set foot on the land and built their homes Stay here.

"You will love this place. If you love freedom and adventure, it's hard to resist its charm." "It was a Spanish colony, and then it changed hands with Britain," he said

"And now?" The farmer's son is good.

"Now, it belongs to us." Goodwin showed his white teeth. "Welcome to Nassau, the hometown of pirates, the land of freedom."

The merchant ship sailed into the bay with the sea lion. The pirates happily put the small wooden boat into the water. Then they couldn't wait to row to the shore. After more than a month's voyage, everyone was suffocated. Now they were thinking about how to get on the shore and release. Except for those who were responsible, they all rushed off the ship.

Difrenna ordered more than ten people, including Zhang Heng, and began to unload the goods. Malvern looked a little nervous. He couldn't help looking towards the kitchen until the old pirate patted him on the back. "Don't worry about that barrel. When you've finished what you're doing, come to the pub and see me." Then he got into the boat.

Zhang Heng and the farmer's son didn't move all the goods to the shore exchange until the afternoon. The person in charge of the inventory didn't go into the kitchen. When it was over, Malvern went back and found that the wooden barrel containing smoked fish was gone.

Difrena called two people, "the plunder is not your share, but let you so penniless get off the ship certainly not." He took out a purse. "Here's 50 silver pesos. It's an advance for you. It should be enough for you to live on shore these days. If you want to make money, you can find some work in the town, but don't sign a long-term contract. Someone will inform you before you go to sea next time."

Thanks to difrenna, Zhang Heng and Malvern left the exchange, but not long after they went out, the latter immediately asked for money.

Zhang Heng knows what he's up to. On the way over, the farmer's son is always peeking at the boats moored on the wharf. Nassau is very close to the American colonies. It won't be long before he can go to New York and Boston to be a young master on his own farm. In any case, it's more promising than being a cook on a pirate ship.

But Zhang Heng knows that he can't run away. If the pirates can't prevent this kind of thing, they won't let them off the ship. But Zhang Heng doesn't remind Malvern. Seeing that the other party wants to break up, he agrees very happily. They share the money and each gets 25 Silver Pesos.

Malvern obviously didn't want to fulfill the agreement with the old pirates. Seeing the silver money in the bag, he rushed to the wharf with the money for the ticket.

Zhang Heng, on the other hand, looks at the town where he is now. In the 18th century, the productivity of Europe has developed to a fairly good level. The Renaissance has just ended. Especially in the upper class, the aesthetic level of architecture and decoration has reached a new height.

But it's different here. Nassau's first impression is that there are no theatres, no towering churches and bell towers, no ladies and gentlemen in gorgeous clothes ready to go to the ball, some low and dilapidated wooden houses and stone houses, and countless palm trees. It's like a huge slum.

The exposed prostitutes solicit business on the roadside and show their chests to the men in the past. The kids run barefoot on the dirt road. At this time, every passenger should pay attention to his money bag. There are pirates with weapons all over the street. They walk by in groups. They just come out of the pub and plunge into the casino. In addition, there are fishermen and peddlers shouting in the market Selling their own goods, the young priest is talking in the open space, about how people wash away their sins.

However, under its crude appearance, there is a tenacious prosperity and vitality.

Standing here now, Zhang Heng can feel the prosperity of this town.

This round is the longest he has ever experienced, 300 days. Plus 24 hours, he will stay in the world for 3900 days, more than the sum of all previous rounds.

This will be a very long journey. Zhang Heng doesn't know what is waiting for him in front of him. Now that the game has begun, he can only move on.

…………Zhang Heng tidied up his belongings. All the props he hid under the floor had been taken out before he got off the ship. In addition, he also had a short musket with two initials FH engraved on the handle. However, it is estimated that its owner is no longer there. It's a dagger that can be used, but even if it's taken out, it can't be sold for a few pieces, and 25 Silver Pesos. It's worth mentioning It is a kind of Spanish silver coin, popular in the colonies.

That's all he has.

Besides these assets, he still has a debt to pay.

Zhang Heng went to several pubs in a row, and finally found the old pirate in the fourth pub near the reef on the west side of the city. The latter was sitting there enjoying the erotic dance on the stage, and saw Zhang Heng knocking on the left side of the door. "If I remember correctly, it seems that I hired two people in the original agreement, so when is our fat friend Come here? "

"He's not coming." Zhang Heng sat down.

"Tut Tut, it's not very wise. He doesn't seem to be sober enough about his situation." The old pirate said with regret, "I hope it's Owen who catches him, not Phoebe, or he will suffer."

Zhang Heng didn't care about the fate of the farmer's son. He said, "when do we start working?"

"In fact, we are already working. Do you see the muscle man with bare upper body on your right side? He is the armorer on Ranger. He borrowed 200 Silver Pesos from me at about this time last year. Now the number has turned to 300. Go and get the money back for me."
