Chapter 389

At 10 a.m., the future set sail on time and slowly entered the Aldabra atoll in a serpentine column with the new code.

At 1115 hours, they looked out at the sunflower, which was much more free in shallow water, in the south area of the atoll.

The mottled colored sail is the symbol of the sunflower. Close to 3km, the tricolor Viola flag raised by the sunflower shows its belonging. The sunflower is still Drake's charming flower.

Aldabra atoll is a vast shallow sea area. The deepest water depth here is less than 10 meters, with an average of 7 meters. Colorful coral waves on the blue sea and white sand, like a dream and like a paradise.

Shallow water is a common representation of complex hydrology. In this water area, brigantin such as sunflower can travel freely in most of the sea surface, while Galen such as futureship needs to look for those cobweb like waterways.

The waterway is winding and changeable. The future can only maintain the floating speed and can hardly raise the cross sail.

But that's Pierce's purpose.

The Portuguese ships will not have a shallower draft than the high-speed cutting-edge ships of the secret service formation. Even if they are familiar with the sea area, they can't come and go freely.

In this way, the ambush site can only be set at the wide and deep atoll exit. They are free, and the secret service fleet can also raise cross sails to minimize the possibility of being shot at their own high speed.

It would be better if the battle could be postponed. As long as ladies enter the battlefield, even in this battle, which is not aimed at winning, they can win some valuable booty.

The enemy who cooperates is the good enemy.

Pierce thought so. Looking at the connection between the sunflower and the future, Dylan took the observers to the ship's side.

Observers are still confused.

The trip was pleasant, relaxed and smooth. Although Dylan snapps didn't read much, he was talkative and interesting, and getting along with him was never boring.

Drake's diet on the ship is also unique. All kinds of pickled vegetables, smoked and air dried meat, fresh sea fish, live poultry and fresh eggs, as well as dried, stored and foamed Oriental style bean products make the menu of the whole journey delicious and rich, even less than half a maggot.

They are still drinking tea on the ship.

Sailors and guests have tea bags that match their personal tastes, while ordinary sailors cook thick and astringent tea soup. Except for the strange rule that tea must be eaten, living on Drake's ship is almost the same as living on the manor.

This trip made them fully appreciate Drake's wealth and strength, as well as the arbitrariness of this powerful chamber of Commerce.

The observers are called distinguished guests and enjoy an independent cabin on the same floor as the captain. They do not participate in duty and have senior drinks and designated escorts. However, they have no right to express any opinions on the voyage. Any sloppy sailor can turn a deaf ear to their requirements.

Even if most of their demands are reasonable and well intentioned.

Like this voyage across the atoll.

Aldabra island is the most desolate place in Africa. Its atoll belt is broad, deep and shallow, and its hydrology is complex.

In addition to special business needs, African maritime merchants often choose to detour to avoid the atoll, but Drake's people choose the seemingly short cut crossing.

The observers thought they had just made a strange mistake in judging the environment. They found out that the fleet itinerary was made by the young adjutant of Dylan snapps and organized a group to remind him.

As a result, pierce had them forked out of the cabin and threatened them fiercely. Whoever dared to say that he was not weaned would be hung on the rudder to feed the fish.

How savage! How uneducated!

After that, the observers did not express their opinions. They just tasted tea and wine.

They knew nothing about the planning of the voyage, let alone that today, in the center of the atoll belt, there was a brigantin dressed like a clown who would join the fleet until they saw it with their own eyes.

There was a slight tremor on the deck, and the two ships were connected. The observer asked Dylan curiously, "Captain, is this ship?"

"This is our fleet's communication ship xiangyanghua. Like the Navy, Drake chamber of Commerce has professional communication ships in ocean configuration. Their high speed is the only way for the whole chamber of Commerce to maintain smooth communication."

"Professional communication ship? Brigantin?" the observers were only amazed.

There were three people on the xiangyanghua. The first was a young English gentleman, the second was a beautiful oriental lady, and the last was a black skinned savage who dressed himself as a gentleman.

The beautiful miss Dongfang walked the fastest and surpassed the gentleman on the narrow board. Pingtingting stepped in front of old Dylan: "where's the young master?"

Di ethics certainly pointed to the stern cabin.

"Goodbye!"

The wayward woman said to go and gave the focus of the deck to the elegant men.

Faramin and Hashim boarded the ship together and walked up to old Dylan and the observers.

Old Dylan raised his hand to introduce: "Hashim in Leo dipura, our navigator, master of astronomy from Bernier University and the Godson of the count of loviston in the Swiss Federation, Hashim, business observers from France, Spain and the Netherlands, come with us to investigate the business environment of the East African route and explore the possibility of joint progress of the four chambers of Commerce in Asia."

Hashim made a standard gentleman's salute to the observers.

"Hashim dipura says hello to all gentlemen and may God shine on your life," he said in Latin.

The observers were hit harder than when the three younger sisters Shaw came and went. Mr. medori of the Netherlands opened his mouth: "Luo... The Godson of count lowesden, master of astronomy, a black..."

Mr. mobadi of Spain stabbed the unfinished words in Melinda with his elbow, put on a spring smile and said them word by word with a strange accent.

"I haven't heard such authentic Latin for a long time. Mr. despra's accent reminds me of those old pedants in the church Library in Madrid. In order to interpret the Trinity, I was almost kicked out of the library."

Medori's mouth opened wider: "church library? Latin? Not savage?"

The matched companion was so stupid that Mr. Illich of France found himself unbearable.

He put aside his companion and went to faraming: "I don't know this young gentleman?"

"Faramin snapps, my proud son." old Dylan laughed. "Faramin, this is Mr. Illich from the rosetari chamber of Commerce in France."

Faramin smiled and said hello to Illich and the other two.

At the end of the greeting, montbadi of Spain tentatively asked, "Mr. Tidu, is it one of the plans of this voyage to meet in the atoll belt?"

"I guess you want to add another word, sneaky."

Dylan's frankness surprised the three observers. Medori of the Netherlands was the most forthright and immediately said, "yes, sir, sneaky."

Dylan ordered the sunflower to separate, led Hashim and faramin, and accompanied the three observers to the bow.

"Drake will not hide anything from his allies. My son set out a few days earlier than us and his destination is Mombasa. Kenya is the key break for us to open up Asian routes. As the organizer of this joint survey, Drake has the obligation to let us go smoothly."

Illich of France frowned: "you mean... Playing the front station?"

"With a little gift, we will be welcomed like friends in Mombasa. This is the treatment that a noble gentleman should have, Mr. Illich, do you think so?"
