Chapter 1665: Companions. (3 more please customize)
As the sun rises higher and higher in the early morning, Black Pearl Harbor is already full of people.
There are more than ten ships parked in the port. Black Pearl Harbor is surrounded by the royal knights today. All merchant ships are docked today. All the merchant ships docked at this moment are slave ships that are about to be sent to the Han Dynasty.
Many civilians gathered outside the knight's encirclement, and they all came to see what was going on.
The last time Black Pearl Harbor was full of people was when Princess Field came back and Prince Eddie and the others went to sea.
This time there was no prince or princess in Sweating, and then there was such a big battle at Black Pearl Harbor, so the civilians were particularly curious, and they started talking about it.
"What do you think His Majesty the King is going to do?"
"I don’t know, didn’t Her Royal Highness the Princess and Her Royal Highness the Prince lead the knights to sea last time?"
"Yes, yes, why are so many knights sent this time?"
"Don't donate your eyes. How are those knights? See clearly that they are all slaves."
"Yes, they are not knights, they are slaves"
"What does His Majesty the King want to do by sending so many slaves? Could it be......"
"Could it be that Your Highness the Princess and Your Highness the Prince have stabilized in another continent? Where did these slaves serve them in the past?"
"......"
The civilians were all discussing each other, and no one knew what His Majesty the King was planning this time.
Surrounded by the knights, there is a familiar figure, that is Duke of Woods.
This time, he was appointed by King Sandra to escort the 5,000 slaves and 300,000 gold coins to the Han Dynasty.
In the past few days, he had been persuading King Sandra to agree to the Han Dynasty's request. After all, establishing a port in Jinsui City was a beneficial and harmless thing for him.
But King Sandra was very stubborn. He said that he must ensure that Prince Eddie was safe and sound, and that there was news about Princess Field.
This made him very distressed. After all, this trip to the Han Dynasty would take more than two months.
It will be more than two months before Prince Eddie is brought back. With such delay, the establishment of the port will not be completed until mid-summer.
The longer the establishment of the port is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be for the nobles. This means that the goods they purchased during the period were purchased at high prices and they earned very few gold coins.
"The Duke must be worried about the port."Rilla said.
The elf girl learned that Sandra's slaves were sent to the Han Dynasty today, so she also came to the port. Of course, she needed to come here in disguise.
Duke Woods walked over and saw the elf girl, wondering. ,"Come here?""
He then looked around to see if there were any spies of the king nearby. After all, the suspicion of approaching people from the bank privately was not small.
Ruila waved her hand and said,"Don't be nervous, Your Majesty the Duke, I escaped a lot this time. People don’t need to worry.
Duke Woods breathed a sigh of relief and asked,"What's the matter with you coming here this time?" Does His Majesty the Han Dynasty have any instructions?"
"Oh, I have nothing to do, I just came here to take a look and make sure that the slaves were really delivered as expected."Rilla shrugged her shoulders.
In fact, she mainly wanted to see if Duke Woods had made any small moves. After all, the other party just agreed to the conditions of the Han Dynasty, and it was very likely that he would also instigate rebellion against the Han Dynasty, so she still had to be careful. That's better.
Duke Woods nodded and said,"Miss Rila, you have also seen that everything here is the same as the requirements of His Majesty the Han Dynasty."
"Well, indeed I did see it, but this time I want to go to sea with you."Ruila said lightly.
"What? Do you want to go to sea with us?"Duke Woods wondered.
Ruila nodded calmly and said,"Yes, I have been here for a long time. It is time to go back to the Han Dynasty."
The elf girl received a telegram from Chang'an City yesterday evening, asking her to return to the Han Dynasty with the people from the Flanders Empire. The main reason was to watch them carefully on the way to prevent them from having any bad thoughts.
Duke Woods said something. He nodded thoughtfully and said,"Okay, have you brought all Miss Rila's things? We're going to leave soon"
"Don't worry, I've got everything, not much."Ruila patted i's backpack behind me.
"That's good, Miss Rilla, just log in to the main ship, and the best room inside is reserved for you. Duke of Woods said cheerfully.
Rilla nodded and said,"Duke of Woods, do you also want to go to sea together?" Or are you just here?"
"Of course I want to go to sea together. Didn’t His Majesty the Han Dynasty say that he would welcome me there? Duke Woods smiled.
Ruila raised her eyebrows slightly and said,"Indeed, our Majesty welcomes you very much. If you come over,"
"So I'm going to go over there now. You say the Han Dynasty is so good, but I want to see it with my own eyes and make sure that the decision I made is correct."Duke Woods raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Trust me, you won't regret it."Rilla smiled.
Duke Woods turned around, looked at the slaves boarding the ship one after another, and sighed,"I wonder why the Han Dynasty wants so many slaves?"
"The Han Dynasty was a rapidly developing kingdom, and of course it needed more manpower." Ruila said officially
"Well, I'm starting to look forward to it. Duke of Woods said seriously
"Oh, by the way, Lord Duke, after you go to the Han Dynasty, what will happen to Jinsui City?"Rilla asked.
Duke Woods waved his hand and said,"Your Majesty has so many right-hand assistants and I am not missing one, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. If His Majesty believed their words, he wouldn't listen to you alone."Rilla shrugged her shoulders.
"Our family has sworn loyalty to His Majesty the King for generations, so of course he believed me."Duke Woods looked a little proud.
Rilla blinked and said,"That's it. The reason why your Majesty sent you to escort these 5,000 slaves and 300,000 gold coins was not because of your status. In his eyes, it is more important"
"so what? I am still just a Duke and have not received any useful position."Duke Woods is a little dissatisfied
"What else does the Duke want?" Ruila asked curiously
"I believe Miss Ruila should be very clear about what I want, otherwise I would not cooperate with your Han Dynasty. These are things that our King cannot give me."Duke Woods smiled.
Rilla raised her eyebrows slightly and said,"Okay, then I understand."
