"So the reason why Malcolm was able to control Eugene, let him muster his hands to oppose and frame Normand, was not because he had control of Eugene, but because he had control of Eugene's son?" Annie returned the weapons she had kept for Zhang Heng to the latter.
Zhang Heng took over the weapon, "yes, many colonies have zero tolerance for pirates. If this thing is exposed, his son will not only be unable to get along in the Navy, but also be in danger of being hanged."
"No wonder Eugene is so obedient." Billy said, "so if we want Eugene to help accuse Malcolm, we have to solve his problem first. Did Carmen tell you who the two survivors are?"
Kalina shook her head. "Eugene didn't tell her her specific name, but it should be able to find out. There will be records at the customs of the people who survived the pirate robbery. I can write to the people there to investigate."
"Then our next job is to find out the two survivors, find a way to kill them, or tie them up."
"This thing I'm afraid it's not easy. If it could be done, Eugene would have done it himself. He would not be willing to be threatened by Malcolm all his life. Even if he didn't have the ability, he could pay someone to do it. "
The businesswoman said, seeing that Zhang Heng didn't open her mouth, she picked her eyebrows and asked, "what's the matter?"
"Nothing. I thought of something." Zhang Heng said, "but now I don't know if this road is right. Can you lend me two hands to use it? I want someone to go to the colony and learn something about it. "
There is no doubt that Zhang Heng and the crew of the Jackdaw are already on the reward list of each port, especially himself. Although he often wandered on the sea during this period, and his skin has been tanned a lot, his oriental characteristics are still very obvious. In fact, Zhang Heng is very interested in the North American colonies of this era. After finishing his main task On the premise of earning enough money, I don't mind going around if I have the chance. By the way, I can also visit Roscoe, who is a senior citizen.
The latter taught him the skills of controlling the sail and observing the wind direction, which was regarded as his first teacher. However, he gave up the idea just after a turn in his mind, mainly because the risk was too high.
It's a pity, but as he is now, in this copy, it's doomed to be impossible to set foot in the civilized society again.
"Of course." Karina nodded and said, "you can choose my people."
Zhang Heng chose two smart looking guys from the second-hand goods trading office, told them what to investigate, and gave them 40 silver coins for the journey. They were both surprised and delighted, and set out to return to the colony that night.
And Zhang Heng himself is not idle, found before Eugene's illegitimate son stayed in the Pirate Group.
Strictly speaking, that pirate group no longer exists. Just like most pirate groups on the island, it existed for a short time. It was dissolved in less than a year. It was not a big pirate group. Even at the most glorious time, there were only less than 30 people, almost when Eugene's illegitimate son joined, and the biggest business they did was in Japan He robbed the cotton merchant ship nine years ago.
Some of the remaining people joined other pirate groups and died in the sea one after another. Some of them went back as fishermen. With the help of brooks and others, Zhang Heng spent more than a week to find a guy who was on the ship.
After asking a few questions, Zhang Heng expressed his thanks to the other party.
At this time, the investigation results from Karina's side came out, and Karina finally knew why Eugene had to swallow his anger all these years and couldn't get rid of Malcolm's control.
Malcolm sent one of the two survivors to the navy fleet and the other to the governor's house as a guard. In this way, Billy's previous plan would not work. Unless Charleston was shelled again like Queen Anne's revenge, it would be unrealistic to take them away or kill them.
The businesswoman once again felt a strong sense of frustration. They thought they had found Malcolm's weakness, but after so much effort, they finally walked into a dead end. The latter was like a monster without any flaws. Karina could not help but once again doubt who would be the final winner of the war between her and the other party, after all, even the first one Norman De, the president of the black business alliance of the first generation, was defeated by Malcolm in the end. By contrast, she was just a newcomer.
After four days in a row, Karina didn't find another solution, and she became more and more anxious until Zhang Heng knocked on her door and said, "come on, the person you borrowed from me has come back. It's time for us to meet Eugene."
"Now? Are you sure you can persuade him to give up the life and future of his only son and stand on our side? "
"There are almost 80% chances." Zhang Hengdao.
The businesswoman was surprised and said, "how is this possible?"
"It's not as complicated as I thought. I'll explain it then."
They took advantage of the night to come to the Hayman manor. This time, drew, a black man, had been waiting for them at the door. He led them to the study on the second floor, where Carmen and Eugene were both there. The latter was very excited after reading the letter in his hand. "How can I know what you said is true?""If you've read that letter, you should know that your son didn't board any pirate ship before he left Nassau. His travel expenses are earned by his odd jobs on the island all these years." Zhang Heng said, "when Mrs. Smith introduced you and your son to me, she said that soon after the fire, the relationship between your father and son deteriorated, and there was no contact. Until now, that's why Malcolm's plan works well."
"Do you think I didn't do any investigation at that time? I found the pirates on the ship, verified the fact that my son was on the ship, and commissioned the customs to check the records of the two men. They were indeed the survivors after being hijacked by the pirates. Or do you want to say that Malcolm did these things several years ago in order to control me?"
"No, Malcolm is not a God, it can't be arranged so early, so the survivors are real, the pirate ship is real, and the robbery is also true, but the person on the ship is not your son. Malcolm must have found out about it by accident. After understanding the relationship between your father and son, he found that there is something to use in this matter There is only one person he really needs to buy, that is, the helmsman of the pirate ship
Zhang Heng hesitated, and then said, "I found the old man on that ship, which was similar to what I expected. At that time, the flow of people on that ship was very frequent, which was also a problem faced by all the small and medium-sized pirate groups on the island. If they could not get enough booty, they would not be able to leave people. In fact, many people usually either fish or farm land. When they heard that there was a ship to go to sea Most of the people on the boat didn't know each other, or they got off the boat after a short time and forgot about it. However, it happened that there was a boy on the boat who was about the same age as your son. That's why Malcolm thought this thing could be used. "
