Chapter 232

On the sunny slope near the wharf of Luxi manor, three brand-new and neat red roofed buildings are brand-new scenery.

They are the residence of three dock managers of the manor.

It was the weekend. It was far from quiet as usual. The children's laughter overflowed in the corners of the house, and the reunion lights danced between each lattice.

Ofey is trying Monica's makeup.

She sat upright in front of Monica's dressing table, allowing Monica to play with her beautiful face, and then looking at the strange look after her makeup, the young girls huddled together and yelled.

That's enough laughing, that's enough noise. Ophy is lying on Monica's bed with scattered sideburns. Monica holds the back of the chair and looks at her unkindly.

"Ophy, I heard you lost the gift from Mr. Judea today?"

"Eh?" Sophie sat up in shock in her dying illness. "You... How did you hear that!"

"Have you forgotten? At the weekend, I will be a tutor in the manor, responsible for teaching Indians to read. It is an independent employment."

"Oh! Those cheap..."

"You curse, housekeeper lady." Monica smiled cunningly. "Ophy, teach me how to capture the hearts of excellent men?"

"Excellent? Sweetheart?" Sophie's red face was full of dullness. "Monica, are you misled by something strange, such as... Indian?"

Monica biofi is also confused: "You are, my friend! Don't you think Mr. Judea is not excellent? He is already Drake's core sailor under the age of 20. He directly enjoys the share of the General Chamber of Commerce and his status is similar to that of a member of the board of directors. I heard from my father that he once joined the Navy. Before he retired from the army, he was appointed as a major. The president commented that he was the top helmsman in the world. It was his talent that made him try his best Dug him up from the Navy! "

"This man... Is really hungry?"

Monica thought she was going crazy: "then what do you think of him?"

"Dirty, smelly, unclean mouth and bad heart. He can eat a hundred pounds a meal. He has no virtue all over. He eats on the ship and waits for death by virtue of his relationship with the master. He is a scoundrel among the scoundrels."

"Are you serious?"

Sophie tilted her head and thought seriously: "Maybe... Birds of a feather flock together. The pagan master has the worst mind and has a vicious brain blessed by the devil. He is surrounded by some strange creatures. Sour children, sneaky and evil witches, and French people who take different women back to the manor every day are always preparing strange potions. Ms. yesla is the only person different from them , upright and sassy. Unfortunately, she is also a pagan or black... No, she is an Egyptian. "

Monica doubted the good friend's eyes for the first time

"Sophie, can you take the liberty to ask, what kind of person do you think I am?"

"You? Very good. I like it very much."

"It's not such a comment. It's as sharp as just now."

"Why do you suddenly want to hear me scold you? I wouldn't scold originally, if it's against my heart..."

Before she finished, she suddenly heard a sharp whistle floating in the air, short and capable.

She suddenly reacted and said that she didn't seem to see the annoying Dylan tonight. She couldn't even see Barto who likes to drink at the door and hill who likes to sleep on the roof.

Three annoying old guys disappeared when they were not on duty, but the three ladies showed no doubt.

This means

Ophie jumped up with a whoosh: "Monica, where's your father?"

"Father?" Monica was stunned. "It seems that his mother said that the president is going to sail at night tonight. They must have gone to command the Charon to leave the port?"

"Ah! That evil pagan! He's running again!"

……

The slender pier is full of busy scenes.

People come and go, carrying their shoulders and pushing their hands.

Lorraine temporarily decided to start smuggling, and Lucie manor did not show any panic.

In the afternoon, the double longitudinal sail cage express carrier pigeon, which was specially used for letter communication, left Luxi fishing port first.

The boat, formerly known as the shrimp boat, is only 5 meters long and has four sailors. It can sail and paddle. Under various wind conditions, the average speed is 7 knots and the maximum speed is nearly 14 knots.

At this rate, it took her less than two days to get to New Orleans, and the letter could be delivered to Carmen as soon as tomorrow night.

In the evening, the Charon was ready to set sail.

The Charon is a large sloop that sent Lorraine last time. It has a captain of 15 meters, a crew of 20 and a minimum of 6.

The characteristic of this ship is that it can perform stably under a variety of wind conditions. The speed, steering and wave resistance are moderate. It needs few sailors, but the supporting cabin is large.

Most of the time, this kind of ship is used as a fishing boat at the edge of the continental shelf. It is not only the most high-quality and cheap fishing boat in the open sea, but also the most shabby and can not afford the desire of looting.

Lorraine took a fancy to her poor and adaptable characteristics and used her as a ferry to connect the Jackdaw with Luxi manor and realize the traffic connection between the two "strongholds".

In this way, Lorraine can control the location of cross dressing at sea.

Lorraine Drake will not appear in any form in the field controlled by Edward, and Edward KENWAY, a future smuggler, will not have anything to do with young English maritime merchants.

At 9 p.m., Lorraine, Hannah, pierce, Noah, acharin, Daniel and bell appeared together.

Dylan ran up with his whistle in his mouth, peeped at Bell lying on the scooter, and stood at attention in silence.

"President, the preparation of the Charon can be completed in half an hour. It is expected that the ship can leave the port normally at 10 o'clock at the latest."

Lorraine smiled apologetically: "on a whim, please."

"We apologize for not being ready to leave at any time!"

"I don't blame you," Lorraine waved. "Prepare a spacious cabin for Daniel and bell. They will live together."

"Yes!"

What needs to be explained is very simple. Discuss the destination with the captain of the Charon and send bell and Daniel on board like placing goods. The rest rest rest in the wharf cabin and wait for the final preparation for the voyage.

As a result, the preparation for the voyage had not been completed, but the fiery ophy first bumped into the cabin.

"God, sir, you want to run away again?"

"What is escape?" Lorraine rolled her eyes angrily. "Ophy, the housekeeper in England won't rush like you."

"That must be because they didn't meet a master who left without saying goodbye at any time!" ophy gasped, "master, as..."

Clang!

Monica and Dylan smashed into the cabin one after another. When they saw the room full of self-help sailors and tit for tat Lorraine and ofey, Qi Qi rubbed his hands awkwardly.

Ophy was surprised. "Monica, what are you doing here?"

Lorraine sadly continued: "the teaching assistant is probably afraid that I will misbehave towards my housekeeper. As for the dock Administrator..."

Dylan snapped to attention and saluted: "my subordinates are worried that the little girl will disturb the president's elegance!"

"Look, that's it." Lorraine reluctantly spread his hand.

Sophie and Monica blushed with shame. Monica waved again and again: "no, President, I want to stop Sophie..."

"Why stop her?"

"Because..."

Ofey raised her hand to block Monica's words and looked back at Lorraine with dignity: "Sir, as the liaison between the General Chamber of Commerce and the sub chamber of Commerce, I have the obligation to remind you that it is your responsibility to explain your position at any time and keep your subordinates in smooth contact!"

"I feel that as a capitalist who pays everyone, I have the right to act arbitrarily."

"No! It's your duty to pay, and it's also your duty to make decisions at any time on key issues."

"But I have entrusted the affairs of the branch to President chuck Parker and vice president Leonard. Except for a few issues related to the survival of the branch, they can make a decision."

"But there are still a few matters related to the survival of the branch, aren't there? Although President Parker is annoying, I agree that no one is free in front of capital!"

Acharin whistled admiringly.

Lorraine glared at him, turned back and pretended to be meditative.

After a delay of more than a minute, Lorraine raised her head: "Miss McCarthy..."

"Ophy!"

"I'm talking to a contact, not my housekeeper."

Ofey puffed up her cheeks angrily, but finally acquiesced to the change of address.

Lorraine cleared his throat and continued, "first of all, congratulations on your success in persuading me."

"Secondly, I regret to tell you that your request is difficult."

Ophy had a bad hunch: "why?"

"Because..." Lorraine dragged a long tone, "even I don't know where I'm going next."

"Huh?"

"The Amazon jungle is very big. The Maya once established a great civilization there. I want to find their pyramid, but even if I find it, I can't guarantee that it's the feather temple I'm looking for, so I don't know where I'm going."

"Feather... Feather what?"

"Feather temple." Lorraine waved his hands. "The Maya believed in the sun and believed that a strange snake with bird feathers was the messenger of the sun. They built a pyramid temple to worship it. The sacrifice was gold, a lot of gold."

Aofei was stunned when he heard it. Subconsciously, he said, "a lot of... Gold?"

"A lot of gold."

When Lorraine was almost out of words, Hill's report came out of the door: "president, the card ring can leave the port!"

"Great!" Lorraine picked up the belt with a long knife beside the wall and said to ophy with a smile, "when we find the temple, I'll ask bell to bring you the feather god statue. That's the deal."

The sailors burst out laughing with Lorraine. When they were all gone, ofey didn't react.

"Wait! You still haven't told me where you're going! And why do you have to give it to me!"

Of course, no one paid attention to her at all.

In the late night, the sounds of nature in Luxi were all over the field, and the cries and responses of ships leaving the port came from a distance, lingering around the cabin for a long time.

Monica stared at her furious friend.

"Ophy... In every way, you're a magical girl... Really."
