Fifty-five days have passed since the departure of the Jackdaw, and various rumors have begun on the island.
Some people said that Zhang Heng had encountered a storm and lost their way at sea. Some people had seen them arrested by the navy, fierce fighting between the two sides, and finally the Jackdaw was sunk. Some even vowed that they had encountered a mermaid. The crew on the boat were seduced by the song and plunged into the sea ...
But no matter what rumors have one thing in common, it is that they believe that Jackdaw cannot come back. It is no secret that Zhang Heng and the supplies they carried before going out to sea. One and a half months have passed now, even if the loss on the road is not taken into account. The food and fresh water reserves on the Jackdaw have also bottomed out, and still have not returned to Hong Kong. At this time, most of them are less ferocious.
Such things are not uncommon in pirates, especially the newly formed pirate regiment, but because Zhang Heng owns warships, plus the extraordinary recruitment of female sailors, it has attracted more attention.
The island ’s people reacted differently to this end result. The gamblers who had previously beleaguered the Jackdaw were naturally elated, and most of them looked a little sorry for the lively eating party, compared to this tedious ending. They still want to watch the Jackdaw return empty-handed. The new captain Zhang Heng is overwhelmed by his followers.
In contrast, James on the other side was much more straightforward. Hearing the good news, he had a good drink in the tavern to celebrate Zhang Heng ’s love-for-love rival hanging up, but remembered that Annie was also on the ship Suddenly he was not happy again. It took him so much time to turn the latter to the new continent, and he invested a lot of money in the red-haired girl. In the end, however, the bamboo basket was completely empty. James suddenly found that the The rum tasted tasteless.
The only person on the entire island that was really upset for Jackdaw was probably Harry.
He looked a little listless these two days. Without the red-haired demon, he could dominate the streets in the nearby streets. In his pocket, there was a copper Sobe honoured by other little ghosts in the morning, but somehow he always Feel something missing in life.
Harry put his hands in his pockets and kicked the pebbles at his feet boringly, even missing the time when he was pressed to the ground by the man.
The powerful and angry fist fell like raindrops. In the words of Harry afterwards, this had transcended the battle itself. Each of her punches seemed to convey some belief, even if it was a captive in my chest. I can feel something burning.
It is a pity, however, that he would never see that figure again, thinking that Harry could not help but make a sigh of sorrow that did not match his age.
The two bear children behind him looked at each other, only suspecting that his old brain had been dumb.
At that moment, the three saw a figure running from the pier. The man plunged into a casino not far away, yelling while running, "Come back, come back, Jackdaw No. Come back! Hahahaha, I haven't lost yet! "
The two little ghosts were surprised by what they said. During this time, everyone on the island has basically accepted that Jackdaw encountered an accident. After all, if the latter can come back, it should have been back. According to past experience, it looks like this is overdue. Those who haven't returned have basically encountered accidents. I didn't expect that things would even turn around. Looking at my boss, it was long gone.
Harry rushed to the pier in a hurry, and at this time there were already a lot of people watching the crowd. Harry was crowded in the crowd because of his small size. In the end, he was not disappointed in the effort and was pushed by him. Go and see the Jackdaw setting down a boat and rowing here.
But to his disappointment, he didn't see Annie on it, and another woman was sitting on the bow.
The onlookers are estimated to be numb. I don't know where so many women popped up on the Jackdaw. Compared to exploring Zhang Heng's private life, they are more interested in how the Jackdaw's first voyage gained.
However, when several pirates on the ship sent the businesswoman ashore, they swiped back without saying a word, and Karina found the captain of her transport ship in the first place, and did not know to tell the latter No matter what, I saw the latter hurriedly called the sailor. During this period, no matter what people around asked them, they didn't say anything, as if they didn't hear it.
Their unusual behavior actually made the onlookers feel more curious. At this time, some people finally recognized the identity of the Karina black market businessman. She also contacted some captains and colleagues on the island a while ago. Unfortunately, she did not To join the newly established black business alliance, many people thought that she had left Nassau, but did not expect to have come together with the recently emerged Jackdaw ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Then everyone saw the mooring The Breeze sailed to the side of Jackdaw in the harbour. The two ships were connected by a springboard, and the pirates on Jackdaw began to send a box of cargo to the Breeze.
Because they were still a long way from the dock, everyone couldn't see what goods were in the boxes. They only knew that there were a lot of them. In addition, they also found that Karina later found the merchant responsible for the mortgage loan on the island. I stayed in the latter's house for about an hour.
The latter then sent her personally to the door, and by dusk, Karina had boarded the Breeze and sailed out of the harbor, while the pirates on Jackdaw had not disembarked.
Zhang Heng just sent a few elderly people with a tight tone, disembarked and purchased some food, drinks, and fruits to appease those pirates who were agitated because they couldn't get to the shore. According to unwritten regulations, pirates cannot touch the carrier's transport ships. However, the value of the goods this time is too expensive, and there is still no guarantee that someone will take the risk after receiving the news.
Although the following things are no longer related to Jackdaw after the transaction is completed, but with Karina's current assets, she can't eat so much, she can only use the two properties in New Hampshire and Breeze first. The mortgage raised a first batch of funds to cover the share of the pirates on board, and the remaining half of the public funds that belonged to the Jackdaw can only be filled after the businesswoman has sold the goods.
Therefore, Zhang Heng must ensure the safety of the Breeze. In addition, the two are now allies, not a one-shot deal. He also needs the latter to help him continue to sell loot. It is impossible for the businesswoman to be in danger.
He still remembers the lesson of Kidd's treasure. As long as the group of guys on the boat are returned to the island, it won't be long before the island will know that there are a lot of valuable spices on the Breeze.
