Chapter 161 Purpose
"Don't worry, the governor won't do that." Charles said to the person in front of him
"How do you know that you are the governor?" The passer-by looked at the guy in front of him who didn't even have eyebrows.
"Of course he is—" Lily was about to retort, but Charles directly pressed her back.
"Let's go, let's go to other places." Charles turned and walked out of the square.
There's no point in arguing with him. He will naturally understand when the new decree is reposted on the notice board.
Charles continued to walk forward with Lily, and the two of them crossed the square and arrived at the so-called island center area.
Of course, due to the lack of building materials, the situation in the heart of the island is not much better than before, but the people here are better dressed.
In addition to the staff serving the Governor's Mansion, the people living here are the exploration crew who worked hard with Charles.
The small number of people made the place look a bit empty, except for some houses, there were also some stones placed in some open spaces.
"What is this?" Charles took it out and saw something engraved on the stone. "John 3"
"Mr. Charles, I know this. Tiaotiao told me that everyone used these stones to mark this as his land. When the air route is opened in the future, they will build many houses here and rent them out. make money."
"Oh, this is the first time I've seen you." Charles put the stone back in his hand.
At this moment, Charles suddenly saw that the guy walking across him looked familiar.
That was Frey, cook on the Narwhal. At this time, he hugged the two sexy women on the left and right, talking and laughing as he walked.
Tall and thin, he stood between two plump women, and that scene seemed a bit comical.
"Mr. Chef!" Lily yelled, drawing Frey's attention.
Seeing that it was his own captain, Frey ran over quickly with a look of surprise on his face. "Captain? Is your injury healed?"
"It's much better." Charles pointed to the woman next to him? "Who are these two?"
Frey said with a smile on his face: "I just came home four days ago, and they were waiting for me at the door, begging me to let them be my wife. Where can you find such a good thing? Of course I I agree."
"I can't tell, did the two of them come here because they saw you as a talent in the heart of the island?"
"Yes, but isn't this a great thing? Captain, do you know? This woman's skin is really soft to the touch, much softer than the ones sold on the street. Feel it if you don't believe me."
"I didn't see that Lily was still there, what are you talking about?" Charles frowned slightly.
Noticing the white mouse on Charles' palm, Frey was a little embarrassed. "Lily, sorry sorry."
"How are you doing on the island? Nothing wrong?"
"You mean the Finance Department of the Governor's Mansion? Don't worry, I'm absolutely fine. I'm working hard."
Speaking of this, Frey paused for a moment and said with some hesitation: "Captain, we are all on our own, and you know about my affairs. I don't know anything except cooking. For this kind of critical place, you'd better I'm really afraid of making trouble if I ask someone else to come."
"If you don't do this, then what are you going to do?"
Ferre stared at the boss, "Captain, why do you have to do something? Isn't it good to have fun all day long? Isn't it just for enjoyment that we become islanders?"
"What about the Land of Light? You don't plan to go either?"
Frey chuckled. "Captain, if it's true according to what you said, it's actually not worse to keep up than to be below. There may not be such women who come to your door at the top, don't you think so?"
Charles stared at him so hard that Frey felt a little terrified. "Captain, have I done something wrong?"
"It's nothing, you did a good job." Charles turned and left with Lily.
Charles looked along the street towards his crew quarters. He discovers that the island is more corrosive to the crew than he thought.
Most of the crew can't wait to start their imagined life in the heart of the island.
Looking at their exaggerated appearance, Charles came up with a word in his mind, nouveau riche.
Of course, not everyone is so depraved. The doctor huddled in the room all day long, not knowing what to do, and the bandages devoted themselves to the naval construction of Hope Island.
Finally, Charles found his chief engineer, James, in a banana field.
The tall James wore a huge hat and carefully inspected the leaves of the banana trees in the field.
Seeing Charles waving to him, James greeted him with a simple and honest smile on his face, "Captain, is your injury healed? Little Lily, hello."
"Not bad. I saw you so carefully just now, do you know anything about this?"
"Well, in fact, my grandfather took me to plant ryegrass. It's just that my grandfather fell ill later, and the employer didn't want me. I had no choice but to come to sea as a sailor."
"Really? Did any women climb into your bed?"
"Captain, what are you talking about, I was married, and my wife has a child in her belly."
When it comes to the child of birth, James' face is full of happiness. "I really want to see them right away. They should have given birth by now, and I don't know if it's a boy or a girl."
Charles looked at his smile, thought for a while and said, "Is your wish to be with your wife and children?"
"Hehe." James scratched his head in embarrassment. He suddenly thought of something, put his hand down quickly, and straightened his face.
"Mr. Charles, but don't worry, as long as you need, I can put everything down and go back on the deck!"
Charles shook his head. "No, the matter is over, stay on the island well, you really want to help me get the agriculture on Hope Island right."
Without waiting for James to reply, Charles turned and left. This time he did not turn to go to the hayloft, but walked in the sun.
Charles in the sun is divided into two worlds with other people in the hayloft.
Sensing Charles' emotional change, Lily raised her small head and looked at him.
"Mr. Charles, are you unhappy?"
"How could it be? It's just a little emotional. Everyone is very happy and happy, and they don't go to sea to worry about it anymore.
Women, family, money, they have found everything they need, and the Land of Light is just a dispensable place for them now.
Fortunately, the surface exit has been found, so it doesn't matter if they follow up or not.
Charles turned his head to look at the dark sea next to him, and he suddenly felt that everything that happened in the past nine years was like a dream.
"Mr. Charles, don't worry, no matter where you go, I will always follow you." Lily hugged Charles' coat and leaned against it with her little head.
Charles ran his hands through Lily's hair and looked up at the cracks in the sun in the sky. "This dream is finally about to wake up."
