"Deal, be your mistress? I'm afraid I can't agree to this, although the terms are very tempting, but I can't accept it. When Lily heard the word trade, she immediately became alarmed, and Radha and Carol had told her about it.

"Not yet, whether to discuss it later. I have some industries in the U.S. that are growing very big, so I need a boost, a mouthpiece, a mouthpiece to help me and my business speak. I don't want you to be my spokesperson without principles, but I want you to slowly grow into a real reporter, a real director, and even a real TV manager. In the future, newspapers and radio stations will join, and it will gradually become a media group. And if you have this ability, maybe you can have a greater development, no longer limited to the role of a journalist, but also a higher and broader stage. This has the added benefit of not having to worry about your brother's tuition fees anymore, and you can also settle down in the United States and have a house with a small yard. "Hong Tao is talking nonsense this time, he didn't even see what the TV station looks like, so he began to make a wish casually, and he still has a nose and eyes, and what kind of media group, this pie is boundless.

“…… Can you make me think about it? I want to think about it......" Lily is so embarrassed right now. Although she didn't trust Hong Tao, the temptation was a bit too big for her to refuse. Every condition that Hong Tao offered was poked at her soft underbelly, as long as she agreed to Hong Tao's seemingly loose conditions, then her ideals and family would ...... All of these problems are basically solved. But looking at Hong Tao's smiling face, Lily gritted her teeth and didn't agree immediately, she wanted to think more and ask more.

"Of course. This is a major event related to the fate of your life, and it must be carefully considered. You think slowly, I won't bother you anymore. I went to the bow of the ship to make a call. "Hong Tao is a master of fishing, so he is very tolerant and energy-consuming. Every time he encounters such a moment, he treats it as if he is throwing a fishing bait himself. The fish is naturally happy when it is hooked, and it is normal if it is not hooked.

Lily said that if she wanted to think about it, then let her think! On the sailboat, there was nothing for her to listen to except Radha and Carol, and she might refuse herself without asking Radha and Carol, if they were seduced by the two of them. Even if Lily jumps into this big pit, the most ruthless pit for you is often the person you treat as a friend. In order to give Rada and Carol a chance to pit people, Hong Tao deliberately avoided the back deck and went to the bow of the ship with the maritime phone, he happened to have something to ask Eliza.

According to Lada's estimates, in about one day, the Mad Mouse III will sail out of the windless zone and then enter the low-latitude trade wind zone. From here all the way to Miami. It will be the control area of the northeast trade winds, and the sailboat will always eat the wind on the starboard side, once again turning the driver into a diver. But it doesn't matter, even the westerly wind belt and the Drake Passage have broken through. The important thing is that he has to decide which route he wants to take to get to Miami, because there is a sea area known as the Devil's Triangle in between.

If you don't want to go, then the voyage will be extended again. He was to first go west from the south side of Puerto Rico into the Caribbean Sea. Then head all the way northwest through the sea between Mexico and Cuba. Enter the Gulf of Mexico. Then turn northeast and sail back to the southern tip of the Florida Peninsula against the trade winds. You have to go around the tip of the peninsula for most of the time to get to Miami. Roughly speaking, at least 2,000 kilometers more will be run.

Why do you want to avoid the Devil's Triangle? Nonsense, if that place is a tourist attraction, can it be called the unlucky name of the Devil's Triangle? There must be trouble! Hong Tao is not clear about the specific trouble, he has never been to this sea area in his previous life, but when he was in elementary school, he heard that there is a place called the Bermuda Triangle. There are often some unbelievable things happening there, either the ship suddenly disappeared, or the plane suddenly disappeared, and they are all mysterious disappearances that do not see people alive or dead, and generally no wreckage can be found, and it is said that Nima has something to do with aliens. Anyway, he'd heard the news about this sea, and it was basically all negative, and none of the positives were there. Compared to the Drake Passage, the Devil's Triangle is more impressive in Hong Tao's mind.

According to Hong Tao's character, he is definitely unwilling to do this kind of thing that is not very brilliant and relatively risky. Crossing Cape Horn and Drake Strait is a feat that can be flagged in the annals of history, and it is worth the risk, but there is nothing to be honored with crossing the Bermuda Triangle, and that broken place is not without ships passing by, and the past is gone. The fucking thing about it is that you don't know when it's sick, and all of a sudden it's going to give you a whole guy, and Hong Tao doesn't want to be the one on the mysterious missing list.

If you don't want to cross, you can go around, and you can go to Miami by going to the Caribbean, and you can go to Miami if you slow down! Yes, Hong Tao thinks the same way, but this time he has a heart, and he doesn't want to cross it anymore like when he crossed Cape Horn. He wanted to ask about the situation on this side of the Caribbean before deciding whether to take the western route or the eastern route.

Sure enough, when Hong Tao and Elisa finished talking on the phone, their expressions became even more melancholy. Eliza told him on the phone that if she were the captain of the ship, she would rather go to the Bermuda Triangle than choose to enter the Caribbean, because the sea was not very safe, it was not a natural disaster, it was a man-made disaster.

You've probably seen an American movie called Pirates of the Caribbean, right? It's about this part of the sea, and even though it was a century or two ago, there is no such thing as large-scale piracy in this area, and it's the backyard of the United States, and it doesn't allow it to be a pirate's paradise. However, piracy is gone, and another industry has arisen again, and that is smuggling, smuggling of all kinds!

You can look at the names of the countries around the Caribbean: Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, Puerto Rico, Dominica, Haiti, Jamaica, Cuba, !!

Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Hondras, and Nicaragua are all traditional countries that have been smuggled from land to sea, charging north one after another. As soon as it gets dark, there will be all kinds of runabouts in the Gulf of Mexico and the northern Caribbean, and fishing boats will start to move.

If smuggling alone is enough, then look at some of the more ruthless countries, Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, immigrants in these places are almost synonymous with drug traffickers in the United States, where do they come from? Look at the map, except for Mexico, the only way to go is by sea. Of course, in addition to human traffickers, drug traffickers are also very powerful in Mexico, but they generally prefer to travel overland.

In the end, there is only one Cuba left, and compared with other countries, Cuba is still relatively honest, neither playing with people nor drugs, at most it is engaged in infernal affairs with the United States in the Florida Strait or something. You send a few small boats to transport spies, and I send a few small boats to catch spies, and it is a lot of fun, and it is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Whether it is a ship of human traffickers, a ship of smuggling and trafficking drugs, or a ship that dumps weapons into the United States, all of them are not good at stubble! They generally do not rob passing merchant ships, cargo ships, and fishing boats, but when they encounter a rich man's yacht or sailing boat, they still have no psychological burden to tie up a ticket with a sheep. And they also have a tradition of kidnapping tickets, hiding you in the rainforest or mountains of their country, and taking the ransom, giving the ransom does not necessarily mean that the person will be released, whether you are dead or alive depends on their mood.

On the left is man-made disasters, and on the right is natural disasters, which is really enough for Hong Tao to scratch his head. Since the start of the round-the-world voyage, Hong Tao's ship has always carried three national flags, the American Star-Spangled Flag, the Canadian Maple Leaf Flag, and the Chinese Five-Star Red Flag. Before going to a sea area or a country's port, he would choose whether to hang all three flags or remove one or two according to the country's diplomatic attitude.

For example, in the waters of Mexico, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil, which have relatively good relations with the United States, he hung all three flags, and filled the multinational missions. If he catches up with a country that doesn't like to see the United States, but doesn't say anything about it, and secretly hates it in his heart, he will tear off the Stars and Stripes Banner and keep only the Canadian and Chinese flags, so that he can also avoid eating the melons of the old United States. In this way, he didn't dare to stop at all ports casually, for fear of catching up with the local political turmoil or something.

But at present, it seems that it is not easy to fly the flag of any country, and those traffickers and drug traffickers may not know the Canadian flag and the Chinese flag. The American flag is even more afraid to hang it, that is to invite disaster and cause trouble, the countries of Central America have basically been bullied by the United States, the government does not dare to squeak, and the people below are not so easy to speak. Even if there are weapons in the cabin, they are only used to scare the pirates, and if they run into these armed smuggling boats, it is estimated that it will not be of much use. Those guys are outlaws, and they all have real guys in their hands, so they don't know who is hitting whom. If you don't use a weapon, you might be able to save a small life, but if you use a weapon to resist, it's even more troublesome. (To be continued......)
