Central New World, Quindo Township.

An unfamiliar brig clipper docks upwind in heavy rain.

Normally, the dockmaster would not have levied a port management fee on a stormy day for a small boat that temporarily docks.

This is a bad rule, a man who begs for a life at sea is commonplace in a storm, and if he takes refuge in the port and has to collect money from others, he will be scolded by someone poking his backbone.

But the administrator can't help it, the battle a few months ago caused the lord lord to lose more than a dozen transcendent private soldiers, what a pension that is, plus the silver coins lost in the vault for some reason, although some of them were recovered, it still made the lord sad.

The damn vampire ran away in the end!

Therefore, in the past, the taxes that could be collected or not, but whether they were required or not, now all have to be paid.

The caretaker plans to take a mail boat to Tavare to try his luck when he gets this month's salary, but he can't stay here, everything in the town is much more expensive, the salary has dropped, and the job is even more annoying!

Not to mention the vampires who may return at any time, if they don't come this year, maybe they will come next year, so they can leave early and feel at ease.

The caretaker boarded the brig and saw only two crew members.

The balding one smiled at him and didn't speak.

Another crew member stepped forward to greet him, "Hello sir, we are passing fishermen, isn't this about to come to a storm, and we have rushed here to take shelter." ”

The administrator said helplessly: "Where did you come from? Fishing in the open sea is dangerous! Although it stands to reason that I can not charge your management fee, but the newly promulgated regulations of our lord require you to pay a management fee when entering the port, and I can only estimate the price according to the catch on your boat." The hatch is open, let me go down and have a look. ”

The crew of the brig is hairy and bald, and the two of them make a boat and go back to the place where the 5,000 silver coins were hidden. I want to hurry back to Tavare and start a new life with this large sum of money.

Unexpectedly, the sky was going to keep people, and a sudden storm was approaching, so the two had to turn urgently and go to Kunduo Town to avoid the storm.

The administrator's request made the two of them embarrassed, our ship was clean and there were no fish, and there was a box of silver coins in the bilge, so what do we say?

Oops, good luck today, go down the net and pick up a box of silver coins!?

This time, the two of them came out with the brothers in the mirror group behind their backs, so naturally they couldn't refuse to inspect in the name of the mirror group. So the bald man standing behind the administrator made a neck wipe motion with his hand around his neck.

After seeing it, Mao Foot waved his hand quietly, greeted the administrator, and said kindly: "Brother, this really doesn't need to trouble you, we just came out, and we haven't caught anything yet, otherwise, you go buy a glass of wine, just when our brothers are like this, we have to trouble you to come and see the reparation." ”

As he spoke, he shook hands with the Administrator cordially, and slipped the pouch containing ten silver coins into the Administrator's hand.

The bag was opened, the caretaker cushioned, estimated that there were about 10 silver coins in the bag, smiled knowingly, and told Mao Foot a few polite words such as paying attention to safety, then sorted out the raincoat and turned to go ashore.

The administrator walked away, and the bald man said, "Brother Hairy Foot, you are so powerful, you can easily send him away." ”

Maojiao said: "Don't look at this kind of person, dealing with them is not something that can be done by giving red envelopes." If it is less, he will forcibly go down to the cabin to check, then I can only cut him.

If you give too much, it won't work, he will suspect that we are tired here, so maybe he will go to the lord to report it, and then bring a patrol to check. ”

"Then how do you know that 8 silver coins plus 1,200 livres are enough?"

"Even if it is a boatload of good fish, he only collects twenty or thirty silver coins in taxes, and he can't get it himself, and I give less than ten silver coins, all for him personally, of course he is willing. Give some banknotes, it means that we are also bitter haha, there are really no silver coins, just waiting for the catch on the boat to sell for money. He is better than less. ”

"Brother Hairy Feet, you are so powerful! When we wait for the Empire, we still need you to take care of our business, you just need to tell me how to make a difference. ”

"Hey, bald, I was just about to tell you about this, I don't think we can go to the Empire. ”

The bald man hurriedly said: "Ah, why can't I go, I still have to marry a girl from the south!"

Mao Foot smiled angrily and said, "The southern girl can marry without going to the empire! Have you noticed? In the past two weeks, the privateers in our regiment have not gone out. ”

"Yes, if we don't sail, we have to be on call every day, and we can't use the excuse to go fishing. ”

"So I thought about it all the way, and only now do I understand that the empire is going to be in chaos!

"Do you want to mess up? Brother Hairy Feet, you can make it clear. ”

"The Duchy of Stuart is going to war with the Duchy of Castia!"

"Why are we going to fight the Southerners?"

"It's not us! The New World can't fight! It's the Empire that wants to fight!"

"No, Brother Hairy Feet, why don't we go out to collect taxes, it's going to be a war?"

"You don't read books or newspapers!

Castilla and Stuart must have a battle to fight, and this is a multifaceted competition, and I tell you that you don't understand it either!

Anyway, as long as you know this battle, it will definitely be fought.

What a good excuse for war, the newspapers on both sides have been scolding each other for several months, and the people's emotions have stirred up, and this battle will not be fought this year, but it will definitely be fought next year.

Before, I didn't know how long and how big this battle would be, and I didn't bother to think about it, this is not to get money, we have become rich, but we can't let our money be lost in vain, so I've been thinking about it for the past few days.

The empire definitely can't go, whether it's to go to Londinium or Port Moussey, it's not safe, far from the sea, and our brothers don't know how to make a living, so it can only be a seaside city!

Our Mirror Regiment hasn't been out to loot lately, and it must be that the Governor of Neutra wants to behave neutrally when the war starts.

I can guess what he will say: 'The New World is the New World of the New World's people, and we will not sacrifice the children of the New World because of a war that has nothing to do with the New World.' ’

So it's just the opposite of thirty years ago, this war between the two countries can't be fought in the New World, but we definitely can't stay in Tavaré, which is controlled by the Mirror Regiment, and the aristocratic chick who went to Ryo last time ......"

"yes, that chick is so beautiful!"

"That leg...... Gee...... Don't interrupt!

That chick must have fled back to Ryo, so we definitely can't go to Ryo!

In this way, the only place suitable for you and my brother in the New World is York City!"

"But, I want to go to Ryo, that long-legged chick, and the southern girl!" the bald man rarely objected to the arrangement of hairy feet, and this time seemed to be very insistent.

"No, if you go, you will be caught by yourself, can you stop a lightning arrow from that chick? There are rich people there, if they are really discovered, they can't escape. ”

"Alright then, let's go to Yorktown! buy a house, buy a land, marry a woman!"
