Chapter 349: Having Fun
There are Tongyun densely in the sky, and the cold northern wind rang over the above West Port.
There are no one over the streets in the city, and the residents have shrank at home. In this special period, no one wants to go to the street to cause trouble.
More than 20 days ago, a group of pirates who did not know where came out suddenly attacked Western Port. The kingdom of the kingdom stationed here was completely destroyed, and the pirates quickly occupied the city.
These guys are just the devil rushed out of hell. Those who dare to violate them were dragged to the square to publicly punish them. In Chengping, the residents of Xigang who had heard pirates who had heard of pirates from the older generation had been deeply told by the older generation. The ground felt what was a big deal.
The pirates came to visit the door from house to house. For civilians, they forced the owner to make half of the money in the family after entering. They only took half of them, and they also had a good name.
As for those who are noble, they are not so lucky, they are concentrated in the city hall.
In the most luxurious room of the city hall, Edward, the nattoo, was looking at the ledger, and the radian of the corner of his mouth slightly showed that he was very satisfied with his heart.
"Alas ..." A light sound sounded at the door of the room.
"I thought the pirates, the pirates and the seas before, was a hero who looked like money like dung. I did not expect that in reality he also loved wealth as ordinary people."
The young wizard said so ironically.
Edward didn't care about his irony, picked up the cigarette butt on the table and smoked two, and spit a cigarette ring very comfortably.
"Young people, why do you think I want to do the pirate? In order to seek excitement adventure? In order to establish the reputation of the world? Hahaha, that's all the labels that others posted to me. Besides ..."
Edward stood up and walked to the window, looking at the wharf in West Port.
"To maintain a real fleet, especially the pirate fleet licking the blood of the knife mouth, it will not work alone. You have to have money, you have to have the ability to manage money. Not to mention the money we need There is no bottom hole, after all, the His Royal Highness has not really above the ground, and the support is always limited. "
Natson stalls and said, "Okay, you're right. How much did you get gathered in the past few days?"
Edward raised the account book and replied proudly: "[Donation], the inventory of the city hall ... Calculated in Aldo's gold coins, there are nearly 50,000. Oh, after all, Oldo's maritime trade is not developed enough. We if we want Being a port city in a gap, the money that can be grabbed there, but go to the sea. "
"Oh! By the way!"
The pirate head patted his head, "Our money will continue to increase. Remember the [bill] we sent to Jingyao during the previous days? There are still some not the account."
"Hum!" Natson said funny: "Most of them have arrived? His Majesty of our great King Rhodney allowed this kind of enemy."
The appearance of Edward's manager took it for granted, "The support of the nobles is the cornerstone of the kingship. If forcibly forcibly, those who are noble are enough to drink a pot of the king, especially in the south and the sensitive period of rebellion. Neston, you look at it, you look at it Let's, even our dazzling His Royal Highness, even with our help, he has to seek the support of the nobles in the future. "
"Huh! That gang only knows the parasitic parasitic lying on the country's body."
Nathan is obviously disdainful.
"Do you still have to release the pig's pork in the city hall?"
"Of course, those who get the account, I will naturally release it, I Edward is a person who has a believers. As for the time limit -that is, the day after tomorrow -I have not yet arrived ... Believe people ""
Nathan smiled slightly: "Mr. Captain, maybe you can extend the deadline to receive more money."
Edward shook his head: "I'm afraid the Baron Aber will not give us too much time, counting the days, is it almost coming? I have to say that this baron is really a cautious person. Perhaps just from the royal guard's guard He promoted to military generals, he didn't want to leave his unjust resume in his first battle.
"I just found out what he was waiting for."
"Oh? Listen."
"Your fellow -Northwest!" Nathan said ironically: "Abbot is waiting for the fleet from the Northwest Bay!"
Edward's eyebrows were obviously a little surprised. "It seems that the victory of pirates the previous year made the lords there greatly increased confidence, and dared to send the fleet to not far away to loyal to the king."
"Mr. Edward, I don't think they are loyal to the royal family. It is said that the maritime trade in the Northwest Bay and the area around here is becoming more frequent. We have a thorn on their throat. Is it? "
The pirate leader was silent, and he fell into thoughtfully.
Received the report today. A ship who went out to perform patrol missions did not return at the scheduled time. Could it be ...
"Nathan, let's go tomorrow. Of course, leave a small gift for the Aberrt who comes from a distance."
"Hehe, are you scared?"
"What do you say. Remember, our purpose is to make the enemy exhausted, not to open up the second battlefield for Jils. In order to handle the materials of West Port, the ship's ship has returned more than half. Now We only have 30 ships, everything is careful. "
"Tsk tsk! Mr. Edward, I agree with your caution, but facing a fleet of only 12 ships, aren't you too cautious?"
No mistakes, one sentence, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
"12 ships? Are you sure?"
"12 ships! I'm sure! My informant counted them one by one in Kiel Harbor, and the red flying dragon flags they hung are easy to identify."
"Kiel Harbor? It's not far from here."
"How about another raid?"
"With the incident in West Harbor, the enemy won't be stupid enough to let us succeed a second time."
Nathan raised his hand and clenched it tightly, "Then wait for them to fall into the trap."
Edward nodded: "Okay, young man, your suggestion makes me a little tempted. At that time, we will only leave a small gift for Lord Abbott on the shore, and then all members will snipe the Northwest Fleet at sea. However, I can only wait until the day after tomorrow, because I really have to leave the day after tomorrow."
"Yes Something else?"
"Yeah."
Nathan suggested: "If there are only 12 ships, you only need to leave half of them."
Edward pressed his forehead in distress, "I can't stand you. Why do you feel more like a bloodthirsty pirate than me?"
Nathan grinned, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "Okay, I admit that I came here to have fun. The bigger the fun, the better, the more exciting the fun, the better. Ordinary days are too boring."
The pirate leader sighed: "I lost to you. I will leave you half of the ships, and my deputy will also stay to cooperate with you."
The young wizard narrowed his eyes, he recalled the Jingyao granary, and the raging fire brought him a lot of happiness.
It seems that new happiness is coming. How long can it be savored this time?
