Reborn As a Pirate
Two hundred fifty-five, wait obediently
The sudden romance was wiped out by the sudden heavy topic. In the following time, Lorraine and Henna didn't talk about sex any more. They held each other's arms and went round and round until they came to the busy pier.
What Lorraine didn't expect was that his unexpected encounter today was not over yet.
The majestic Lion was moored at the No. 1 berth of the pier with its bow held high, and the spirited sailors were standing in line. Right in front of the line, Shaq, whom he had not seen for many years, was shaking hands with a noble gentleman on the embankment to say goodbye.
The location where Lorraine appeared happened to be in the extension of his vision.
The eyes of the Drake brothers collided in mid-air, and Lorraine froze for a moment, clearly reading the meaning of Shaq's eyes: [wait obediently].
wait for your head...
Lorraine snorted, turned and walked to the other side of the pier.
The Hyla, which Lorraine snatched from Lake Pontchartrain, is parked at Berth No. 9. As the flagship of the Caribbean offshore caravan, this ship is exactly the ship Leonard is on.
After walking halfway, a young captain led a dozen sailors trotted after him, his face flushed and his breathing short of breath.
De...President Drake!
The helpless Lorraine could only stop, with a cold face, watching the captain run closer and closer.
President Drake, I am the captain of the Navy of the New World Fleet, the charge officer of the HMS Lion, Tira Amani.
Captain Amani, nice to meet you.
You don't look happy at all... Amani smiled wryly, stood at attention, and saluted, President, I'm taking the liberty to come here, mainly because the admiral wants to see you.
Come and leave as soon as you call, the noble lord of Tavistock is still as arrogant as before. Lorraine opened his mouth and smiled, Please tell Admiral Drake that the Chamber of Commerce is busy, Lorraine. Please forgive Drake for being unavailable.
Why are these brothers like this!
The honest Amani almost didn't shed tears, and resisted the urge to tie Lorraine in a low voice: President, just meet the admiral, it won't be long, the admiral will have a training meeting in the afternoon...
Time is money, Mr. Captain, as you stand in front of me now, you are wasting my money.
This... waste? Talking to a rear admiral is a waste of money! Do you know? Invitations to the admiral's reception are hard currency throughout the Caribbean. Last time at an auction, a letter sold for more than 100 pounds Woolen cloth!
Oh! It's a great honor. Lorraine suddenly realized, I'm sorry, please leave.
...
After finally saying goodbye to Mr. Governor, who was confused, Shaq rubbed the center of his brows tiredly, his eyes wandering around Amani.
Admiral...
Come back alone?
President Drake said, seeing that you are busy, you dare not...
Do you think I'm arrogant?
Amani's face turned pale: Well, admiral, anyway, there is still more than half an hour before the port is ready...
No need. Shaq boarded the board with no expression on his face, without stopping for a moment under his feet, He knows me very well.
...
Under the Hyla boat, Lorraine saw Leonard and Olves waiting beside him, which surprised him a little.
Olves is here too?
The tall and heroic Olves smiled embarrassedly: Although the captain didn't plan to see me, but after all, I have the convenience of my position, so I boldly pretended to be public servants.
Fake public affairs for personal gain? Lazy people listen to books
Leonard, whose face was becoming more and more friendly, patted Olves on the arm.
The ocean-going fleet is formally organized. According to the previous discussion between President Parker and I, Admiral Cotterence will serve as the ocean-going admiral, so that the position of offshore admiral will be vacant. Olves was originally the deputy admiral, and he likes to be in Running on the sea, I will do my part.”
It turned out to be a promotion. Lorraine smiled and stretched out his hand, Congratulations.
Olves smiled brighter: This is all supported by the captain.
Lorraine never liked to leave compliments in front of his own people, so he waved his hand.
Leonard, has the chamber of commerce changed during this time?
The ocean-going fleet set sail,
There were three ships in the first batch, the original Andes, the Lucky Horseshoe and the Jupiter. Of course, the names of the ships were all changed, and the French were very satisfied.
That's what Chuck is good at.
The Havana peace talks, the chamber of commerce was invited in the last three days, President Parker attended instead of you, and accepted the thanks from the French. As a gift, we have obtained the business licenses of all French New World colonies, and enjoy the privileges of the registered chamber of commerce in Fort-de-France , a 30% transaction tax reduction in the Pan-Caribbean region.”
Fancy things. Lorraine pursed her lips boredly, France is not England. The essence of the Pan-Caribbean is in the Gulf of Mexico, and the fur and minerals in the entire New France. Now British merchant ships running that line is tantamount to suicide. 30% Tax benefits are equivalent to nothing.
Leonard was helpless and proud: In fact, President Parker originally asked for the right of free navigation, but...the French were worried that you would blow up their port and they would not be able to negotiate, so they replaced it with the current embroidered pillow.
Sure enough. Lorraine shook her head knowingly, and took the information from Hana, This time I called you very urgently, I received a military report in New Orleans, and I need you to confirm the authenticity, use Original verification.
Leonard carefully flipped through a few pages: It's very inside information...
Can it be done?
At least two days, and I have to go to the Royal Navy Dockyard to sit in charge.
be safe.
Leonard nodded solemnly.
Seeing that the formal explanation was over, the good old man squeezed out a narrow smile: Captain, is that the famous Lion?
What? You want to hitch a ride?
I'm not crazy... Leonard rolled his eyes in fright, If I take their admiral's boat to spy on the core military situation, no matter how good the people inside are, they will have to hang me on the fort to prove my innocence.
What's the matter?
I think it's rare for the captain and his brother to meet, don't they...
Don't talk too much. Lorraine raised her eyebrows and patted Leonard's shoulder, her voice dripping softly, Don't talk too much, old man.
The most important event in Hamilton officially began on August 6, four days before Lorraine's final sailing time for New Orleans.
And because it takes two days to bring the results back to New Orleans at the speed of Weilan's water droplets, the time really left for Leonard and Lorraine is actually stretched.
This made Lorraine more urgent to arrange enough Bermuda sailboats inside the chamber of commerce.
The two sides said goodbye at the pier. Leonard immediately visited a certain regional councilor in a carriage, and before dark, boarded a naval supply boat and sneaked into the heavily guarded Royal Navy dock that occupied the entire Northern Ireland island.
At the same time, Olves settled in the exchange on the grounds of coordinating logistics, Lorraine and Henna returned to the beach villa to wait, Weilan Water Drop replaced all the crew, and transferred to the private dock of the villa to be ready to go at any time. The incident, including the communication and communication between the middle schools, was taken over by the old man under Olves, and no news was released.
One night, one day, quietly.
On the night of August 7th, panicked knocking on the door resounded through the villa. Henna opened the door with a gloomy expression, and welcomed Olves in a mess.
Calm down! Hana reprimanded softly, What's wrong?
Ms. Yesra, old Leonard... Olves panted intermittently, Someone from the navy came to the exchange this morning, saying that Leonard was going to be spotted by the patrolling sailors. ... already in prison!
