Chapter 1062 Sea Storm
The ruling class of the Fijan Kingdom, which has not learned its lesson so far, is still stubbornly sending troops to the New World, trying to suppress the growing independence movement, and maintain the colonial empire and the resulting global trading system.

Musk is not optimistic about the prospects for war in the New World.

The suzerain country has crossed the ocean, labored on expeditions, but the rebel party has received the support of the locals and even foreign forces. If it continues to be consumed, it will be a matter of time before this colony is lost.

It is better to cease the war as soon as possible to stop the bloodshed, to recognize the independence of the colonies in fact, and to try to get the colonial government to recognize, at least in name, that King Fijan is still the head of state of the colonies through negotiations.

Musk didn't want to expose his political inclinations in front of the people he met for the first time, so he changed the subject and asked Captain Dantès about a private matter.

"Mr. Captain, you are from Hailan, and you are very familiar with the local trade industry. Do you recognize a man named Francisco Corleone?"

Captain Dantès froze for a moment, then looked at him hesitantly: "In Hailan, this name is too common. Which Francisco Corleone are you referring to?"

"I heard that he has done shipping trade and dabbled in the insurance industry. He is about 50 years old and always wears a white gold ring with sapphire and iris on his hand."

After listening to Musk's description, Dantès frowned thickly, as if trying to remember something, and finally shook his head with a wry smile.

"Sorry, the information you provided is too vague. I can't think of this person for a while. By the way, what are you asking about this person?"

"My father has an outstanding account with this Mr. Corleone, and I want to talk to him about it." Musk replied calmly.

"Excuse me, is your father?"

"Leonardo Justice, do you recognize that?"

"Leonardo Justice..." Captain Dantès muttered to himself, his face suddenly became very strange, "Is that Mr. Justice who is in the tea trade?"

"It's my father." Musk noticed the change in the captain's expression, and his heartstrings couldn't help but tense, "Did my father deal with you before his death?"

Captain Dantès hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Mr. Justice, do you remember the tea ship that put your father out of business? I was first mate on that ship and, my God, it's a nightmare to look back on!"

"The mob in the colony rushed aboard our boat, unpacked all the boxes full of tea, and pushed them into the sea. The best tea floated on the sea like water plants."

"At that time, the sailors on the ship and I tried to stop the mob from committing violence, but we were beaten so badly that we almost died!"

Captain Dantès wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said to Musk with lingering fear: "I am sorry that I failed to protect your father's cargo at the beginning, and I also feel sorry for his later misfortune."

"Of course it's not your fault, Captain, you've done your duty, it's just my father's bad luck, and, of course, my father's former business partner, Francisco Corleone, who hadn't taken the money Run away and leave the huge debt to my father alone, so that I won't end up in the point of suicide in despair..."

Musk couldn't help gritting his teeth.

"Mr. Dantès, you have a lot of friends in Hailan, and you know them well on the ground. Can you take the time to help me investigate the current whereabouts of Francisco Corleone?"

Facing the expectant eyes of the young man, Dantès hesitated for a while, as if he had something hard to say, until Umberto also came over, he nodded and expressed that he would do his best.

At the end of this conversation, the freighter "Lucky" blew its whistle and began its half-month voyage.

It was the first time for Claire to experience a long-distance voyage. At the beginning of boarding the ship, she felt that everything was novel and interesting, and she was very excited.

And when the freighter sailed into the open sea, under the impact of the wind and waves, the deck began to bump up and down, Claire's face became ugly, first he covered his forehead and complained of dizziness, and then he vomited.

It was obvious that the poor redhead was seasick.

Umberto, Musk, Lisa, and Paul did not experience such a strong seasickness. They thought it was just a small problem, and they would be fine after a period of adaptation.

Claire thought so too, and after taking the seasickness medicine provided by Captain Dantès, she returned to the cabin to lie down and rest.

By the next morning, Musk found her looking listless and ill.

I asked her what was wrong, only to learn that her seasickness was fine, and she added another symptom of insomnia.

"The hammock on the boat is terrible! I was lying on it, and my body was constantly swaying with the hammock. I couldn't help worrying about falling out, and I didn't sleep well all night!" Claire complained bitterly.

"Isn't it, Miss Claire? I think the hammock is like a cradle. I fall asleep when I shake it. It's very comfortable!" Lisa said she couldn't understand.

"When you were performing in the circus, you were not afraid to dance on a steel wire suspended in mid-air. The hammock was only three feet above the ground. How could you be so afraid of falling?"

Gao Fei also found it incredible.

"God knows why, I'm probably not born for sailing!" said the redhead angrily.

Despite many discomforts, she did not regret participating in this ocean voyage, and optimistically believed that the difficulties were only temporary, and she would immediately regain her vitality when the ship docked.

After a week like this, Claire finally got used to the life at sea, but on the morning when the "Lucky" arrived at the halfway point of this trade route - Molasses Island - he occasionally felt a cold, developed a high fever, and coughed profusely .

Originally, everyone had already discussed that, taking advantage of the time when the ship was unloading at the port, we would go to the island to play for an afternoon, and then come back after having dinner.

Now Claire is sick, and has improved after Lisa's treatment, but is still very weak, so she can only stay on the ship to recuperate.

At this time, Umberto made a decision that moved Claire very much—stay on board to look after her.

As for Musk, Lisa and Paul, they still went to the island to play according to the original plan.

"Don't go too far, be careful not to get lost, and come back early." Umberto told the three young people.

"Mr. Esposito, I spent my vacation on Molasses Island and I am very familiar with the environment here. I will be a guide for Musk and Lisa, so you can rest assured!" Paul Porter patted his chest and assured .

Umberto was not at ease with this frivolous aristocratic young man, and told Musk and Lisa: "In a strange place, don't meddle in your own business, if someone finds fault, hide if you can, come back as soon as possible, I will help you deal with it Follow-up trouble."

"Don't worry, Brother Umberto, we will all be careful." Musk said solemnly.
