The crowd drove the boat, dragged Maxim's flagship, and slowly approached the original dock of Maxim. From a distance, there were still some lights on the dock, and after Nangong Yu and the others boarded the dock, they found that there were still some sporadic pirates patrolling the dock.

When they saw a group of strangers landing, they were about to fight back, but they were put down by Massimo and tied up in front of Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu looked at the pirates who were tied up by five flowers, thought for a while, and said, "You pirates, you should have thrown all of you into the sea to feed the fish." ”

Speaking of this, the pirates were shocked and begged for mercy, they could not have imagined that Maxim led almost all the pirates out to sea, but the people were gone, and Maxim's flagship was dragged back by the man in front of him, presumably his own leader must have been killed.

Nangong Yu continued: "Now, you each have your own name, who else is in your family, when did you become a pirate, and where is your treasury? As long as you say it and don't lie to me, then you can continue to stay here." In a few days, I'll send someone here to receive everything. If you cooperate, I will continue to give you a bite to eat in the future, and make sure that you are better off than before, but if I find out that you have lied to me or have concealed something, then I will kill you, and all your families, and all those who are related to you. ”

The people in white looked at each other, and they never dreamed that it would be such an ending. He and others participated in the pirates, and these people in front of them looked like nobles, and according to the law, the pirates were caught, or at least sentenced to hanging. If you think that as long as you say what you know, you can live, and where to eat is different.

When these pirates were stunned, Nangong Yu frowned and said, "Don't you say it, do you have to force me to do it? ”

The pirates had just woken up from a dream, and how could they let go of such an opportunity, so they couldn't help but say out loud what they knew:

"My lord, my name is Alan, the treasury is over there, I'll take you there. ”

"My name is Abel, and we also have a dock where I can take you. ”

......

Looking inside from the dock, the interior of this stronghold was pitch black, and there was a faint unpleasant smell, but when Nangong Yu and the others actually walked in, they all frowned.

Under the leadership of those pirates, everyone walked along the path between the houses, and the houses here were poorly built, worse than the small fishing village where Nangong Yu was born. There are many houses with holes in the walls that make it impossible to live in them when it rains, and it is not known how these pirates can live in such houses. It's just that the area here is not bad, enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

Occasionally, you can see grass nests scattered with some wine bottles, and from time to time you can see many rats showing their heads, looking at the strangers in horror, and then they will swish, not knowing where they have gone.

Everyone walked all the way, looked all the way, and suddenly they smelled a disgusting smell coming to their noses, and they could see that some of the walls were yellow and white at the base, and one of the pirates said embarrassedly: "They have drunk wine, and they are all like this." ”

Anna's face was full of disdain, and her little hands covered her mouth and nose, not only him, but the rest of the people's stomachs began to roll again, feeling that this place was really annoying, and if they lived in such a place, it was better to let them die. Among them, Anna and Massimo, in particular, shook their heads again and again, wanting to go back.

Nangong Yu's expression was as usual, walking in this dilapidated place, looking around, he didn't smell the disgusting smell of fish, he didn't look at this dilapidated place, but the future architectural concept of this stronghold. Where to live in people, where to discuss matters, where to set up traps.

At this time, one of the pirates who led the way said, "Sir, there is our warehouse ahead, and Maxim has put almost all the gold coins there, do you want to go and see it?"

Hearing the gold coin, Jim's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly squeezed to the front, ignoring the unpleasant smell, and said, "Where is the gold coin, take us quickly." ”

The pirate looked at Nangong Yu and saw that he didn't react, so he nodded in agreement, walked a few steps quickly, and came to an inconspicuous house.

The house is even more dilapidated, but from the outside, it is not at all obvious that this is a place for valuable gold coins. I saw that the pirate pushed open the door, and in an inconspicuous place inside, removed the blanket on the ground, and under the blanket, a cellar large enough for one person to enter and exit.

The pirate didn't talk much nonsense, he lit an oil lamp directly from the table next to him, bowed slightly, and slowly burrowed into the cellar. Jim was about to follow, but was stopped by Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu shook his head lightly and said, "Just in case, I'll go down first, and after making sure that there is no problem, you guys will come down." ”

After saying that, he followed the pirate into the cellar.

This time it was Nangong Yu who thought about it a lot, there was no imaginary danger in the cellar, and after the pirates lit all the oil lamps, the scene he saw made Nangong Yu dumbfounded.

And in this cellar, there are more than a dozen barrels of gold coins, some of which have even been scattered on the ground, dazzling with golden eyes. It is divided into many compartments, and in each compartment there are a lot of goods that have not yet been sold, and even there are several barrels of pepper. There are also many glassware, textiles, and even more cured meats, all stored together.

Nangong Yu turned around and beckoned the others to come down.

When the others saw the other party's items in the cellar, Jim's biggest reaction was Jim, his eyes lit up, his chubby body pounced directly on the gold coin, and his mouth kept muttering: "So many gold coins, so many gold coins, hahahaha, I like gold coins the most." ”

As he spoke, he "wandered" among the gold coins.

Rosa gave him a white look, but Rosa's eyes were also full of light, she came directly to the pepper, reached out and grabbed a handful, and said happily: "There are so many peppers, rich, rich." ”

Anna and Massimo were nobles after all, and although they were more restrained, the expressions on their faces were still quite shocked.

Nangong Yu finally persuaded all of them to return to the ground, but the eyes of these people were full of reluctance, until Nangong Yu said: "Okay, these things will be put here first, and they will be used later." ”

Walking out of the cellar and looking at the sky, the east side was already white, the sun was about to rise, and after a busy night, everyone was tired. Nangong Yu decided to rest for a while and then return to Venice. After taking care of other trivial matters, he came here and set up his own base.

Roughly speaking, after this place, Nangong Yu is very satisfied, if he wants to train an elite army, there is no doubt that this will be a good place. One is the location is secrecy, and the other is that it is not far from the exit of the Adriatic Sea, which is the throat of all ships entering and leaving the Adriatic Sea, and the strategic location is very good. Third, as for the problem of money, the gold coins in the treasury I just found, about tens of thousands of gold coins, are enough to support myself for a while.

The only problem is that it can't attract the attention of people with a heart here, Nangong Yu frowned and thought bitterly for a long time before he looked at Massimo with a smile. It seems that Massimo has to be the boss here.

Back at the docks, the pirate pointed to a nearby building and said respectfully, "My lord, this is our dockyard, and more than half of our sailing ships are repairing there, do you want to go and have a look?"

Hearing the word "dock", Marco's eyes lit up, but the others were not very interested in the dock, so Nangong Yu arranged for four sailors to accompany Marco to the dock to have a look. On the one hand, in order to protect Marco's safety, on the other hand, he still has some things to arrange.

Arriving on the ship, Anna could not resist the fatigue of the whole night, and went back to the cabin alone to rest. And the rest of the people, obviously having their own ideas, all stayed on the deck, looking at Nangong Yu with burning eyes.

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "If you all have anything to say, say it." ”

Jim smiled, took the lead in speaking, and said tentatively: "Nangong, what are your plans for those gold coins?"

Nangong Yu understood what he meant, and said, "I'm going to leave a part of it for renovating here, after all, this is our base in the future." If there's any leftover, I'll give it all to you, I think, you and Rosa, not just chefs, but also businessmen. ”

Jim and Rosa were stunned for a moment, smiled, and said, "You can see this, we are indeed merchants, so we are very interested in gold coins. ”

Nangong Yu said: "We will definitely need a large amount of gold coins to support it in the future, so the problem of money will be solved by you, and you will be responsible for the finances of the base in the future, okay?"

Nangong Yu is not inaccurate in seeing people, after getting along along the way, and after arriving at Lagusa, Jim has all his attention on the market of Ragusa and all kinds of goods that can be traded, and the goods that are currently full of goods in the cabin are Jim's doing. And Rosa and Jim are obviously a couple, and handing over the base's finances to the two of them is the best choice.

Jim and Rosa looked at each other, and they were full of joy.

Nangong Yu followed suit, looked at Anthony, and said, "Anthony, we will have a lot of sailors in the future, and these sailors need a shrewd person to manage, how about you?"

This sentence directly asked Anthony's heart, he didn't contribute anything along the way, and the task assigned to him by Nangong Yu at this time just met his expectations, and he could also see that the current head of the team had changed from Massimo to Nangong Yu, so he had no opinion.

At this time, Marco and several sailors also returned to the ship, looking at Marco's blushing face, he knew that Marco was very satisfied with this dock, and before he could speak, Nangong Yu said: "Marco, this dock will be yours in the future, and all our ships will be handed over to you in the future." ”

Marco laughed and said, "No problem, Nangong, as long as the materials are enough, I promise to build you the best sailboat." ”
