The moment the flask hit the ground, Santiago's tears welled up in his eyes, and he immediately turned around to look at Zheng Fei, endless surprises surging with tears. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Don't cry, the tall and strong guy who once knocked down the bison, I'm here to save you. Zheng Fei pursed his lips and wiped his eyes to signal him to wipe them off quickly.

Santiago sniffed and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, trying to calm his excitement.

"Bastard, who wants you to save you!" he blurted out, twisting his face into the flesh and making a gesture that I was going to beat you.

"Don't want to come out? Then you can play a few more days, bye-bye. Zheng Fei whistled, turned around and left.

"Don't..."Santiago finally stopped stiffening, glanced at the flask on the ground, and softened his attitude: "Do you have anything to eat?"

Zheng Fei had already prepared it for him, smiled happily, and took out a bun of beef from his arms and handed it to him.

Ever since he was imprisoned, Santiago had never been oily, and he had eaten either vegetable soup or moldy bread all day long.

So as soon as he saw the beef jerky, he immediately pounced on the hungry tiger, unscrewed the lid of the wine jug and took a sip of wine and meat, as if there was no one around.

"I thought... You don't want me anymore. He chewed half a mouthful of meat in his mouth and said aggrievedly.

"Didn't I say that there was no one to drink with me. ”

Zheng Fei leaned on the door frame and stared at him quietly, with an indescribable relief in his heart.

Sure enough, it's still much more interesting to have this guy around, life is so wonderful~

Santiago snorted and chewed on it again.

Seeing that he was almost finished, Zheng Fei threw another bag of beef to him, and then turned his gaze back and looked at the king.

"Where is the other person?"

"And?" the king furrowed his brow.

"Yes, my other companion you captured. ”

Zheng Fei was referring to, of course, Brad.

"Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but I'll admit you did a little bit of a trick... conspiracy, but he was the only one who was captured that day, and if you don't believe him, you can ask him. The king pointed to Santiago, his eyes blank.

"Not that day, it was the night I first arrived in London, and I sent a man to... Sneak into the palace and follow you, and he never returns. ”

"Oh. The king couldn't help but laugh, and thought to himself, so you have played with the eyes of the heart.

However, he still shrugged his shoulders: "You know, if the Praetorian Guard catches an assassin who has infiltrated the palace, they will definitely report it to me as soon as possible, but the truth is that I don't know about it. ”

Zheng Fei's eyes stared at him for two seconds, and silently gnawed his fingers.

He could sense that the king was telling the truth, so where was Brad now, what was he doing, and... Alive?

Faintly, he sighed.

"Well, if you want, you can tell me his name and looks, and I'll send the army out to help find him. ”

The king is sincere.

However, this is not out of kindness, but with other intentions.

The king knew very well that due to the appearance of the Sword of Kings and the Knight's Legion, the dream of devouring Zheng Fei's fleet had been shattered, and the most beneficial action for him at present was to have a good relationship with Zheng Fei, and it was best to form an ally.

"No need. Zheng Fei shook his head.

He hadn't forgotten that this was London, Brad's hometown, and where sin began, where Brad had been the devil's incarnation, so how could Londoners know that he had returned?

"Okay. The king pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Is there anything else I need help with?"

"Yes. Zheng Fei tilted his head to look at him, and said slowly: "Get me some cargo ships, the kind that can go to the sea." ”

"No problem, how much?" the king patted his chest.

"Two thousand. ”

Fuck......

I am afraid that this is the heart of the king and all the guards present.

sighed, and suddenly rose.

"You must be kidding. The king shook the corners of his mouth, squeezed out a wry smile, and looked a little stunned.

"Unfortunately, no. Zheng Fei raised two fingers: "I want two thousand big ships, and enough supplies to consume two months." ”

"Are you crazy, you want to take the knight legion on an expedition to the Mediterranean?"

"That's my business, all you need to do is get what I want ready. ”

"I'm sorry, I can't!" the king scolded, holding back his anger, after all, the other party's demands were too much.

"No, you have to. Zheng Fei's tone was unprecedentedly resolute, because there was no other way to bring hundreds of thousands of people to the Americas.

"Oh my God, do you know that all the ships that the royal family can deploy, including warships and merchant ships, add up to less than five hundred, where can I get you two hundred ships?

Zheng Fei raised his hand and pointed to the slowly flowing Thames River along the window.

"Well, there are definitely more than 2,000 ships anchored in the Thames. ”

The king's eyes widened as big as brass bells, and he explained, "That's not my ship, it's a caravan from all nations to trade in London, and I have no right to deploy them!"

"But if it's wartime, you can urgently requisition these ships, right?"

Hearing this, the king's mood eased a lot, and he squinted his eyes with a slight smile: "Oh~ That's right, but you have to pay a large amount of compensation to those foreign merchants... Now the question is, do you have that much money?"

A subtle trace of contempt drifted through his pupils.

The requisition of two thousand large cargo ships required a high cost of at least ten million silver coins, and in his opinion, it was impossible for anyone to have such a large amount of wealth, even Zheng Fei was no exception.

"I didn't. Zheng Fei shook his head, and at the moment when the king showed a sneer, he added, "But you have." ”

The king's smile instantly froze at the corner of his mouth, looking at Zheng Fei like a monster, his dark blue pupils were occupied by the sudden influx of incredulity.

He couldn't find the right words to express his feelings right now, and if he knew of a word called MDZZ, he would definitely use it.

He swallowed and slowed down for a long time.

"That's 10 million silver coins... You're a robbery—" His voice trembled, and the English treasury had been depleted by years of war, and ten million silver coins was definitely a huge expense.

Zheng Fei patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

"I'm sure you understand that if I start a war now, all of London will be mine. But no one wants to see the scene of burning, killing and looting, and 10 million is the price we paid for signing a peace treaty. ”

To be honest, Zheng Fei's heart is extremely happy at this moment.

He remembered that at the end of the 19th century, the British invaders crossed the ocean to China at that time, opened the door of the Qing government with strong ships and cannons, resold opium, looted silver, and caused the people of China to live in misery.

A mere 10 million silver coins is nothing compared to the hundreds of millions of taels of silver and countless antique artifacts that the British invaders stole from China?

The king bit his lip with hatred: "If King Arthur knew that you were using his authority to do such a thing to England, he would not have let you go!"

"If King Arthur had known that men like you had become kings, and had ruled England to this depravity, he would have killed you. Zheng Fei smiled back.
