The sudden romance was consumed by the sudden heavy topic, and for the rest of the day, Lorraine and Henna didn't talk about sex anymore, holding each other around and going around until they came to the busy docks.

What Lorraine didn't expect was that his unexpected encounter today had not yet come to an end.

The majestic Lion was moored at berth No. 1 on the pier with its bow held high, and the spirited sailors stood in front of the queue, and Shaq, whom he had not seen for many years, was shaking hands with a noble gentleman on the embankment to say goodbye.

And Lorraine's appearance happened to be an extension of his vision.

The Drake brothers' eyes collided in midair, and Lorraine froze for a moment, clearly reading the meaning of Shaq's eyes: "Wait obediently".

Waiting for you......

Lorraine let out a grunt and turned to the other side of the dock.

Berth 9 is home to the Rain Frog, which Lorraine has stolen from Lake Pontchartrain, the flagship of the Caribbean offshore caravan, the same ship that Leonard was aboard.

Halfway through, a young captain trotted in a dozen sailors to catch up, his face flushed and his breath short.

"Virtue ...... President Drake! ”

Lorraine, who had no choice but to stop, with a cold face, watched the captain run closer and closer.

"President Drake, I'm Captain of the New World Fleet, and Stormtrooper Officer Tira of HMS Lion. Amani. ”

"Captain Amani, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"You don't look happy at all......," Amani smiled bitterly, straightened up, and saluted, "President, I have taken the liberty to come here, mainly because the Admiral wants to see you." ”

"Beckoning and going, the aristocratic lord of Tavistock is still as arrogant as ever." Lorraine pulled her mouth away and smiled, "Trouble to tell Admiral Drake, the Chamber of Commerce is busy, Lorraine. Drake doesn't have time to accompany him, so please forgive me. ”

How can these two brothers be like this!

The honest Amani's tears almost didn't fall, and he resisted the urge to tie Lorraine over and whispered: "President, let's meet the Admiral, it won't be long, the Admiral has a training meeting in the afternoon......"

"Time is money, Mr. Captain, just as you are wasting my money by standing in front of me now."

"This ...... Waste? How can it be a waste of money to talk to a rear admiral! Did you know? Invitations to the Admiral's reception are hard currency throughout the Caribbean, and last time at auction, a letter sold for more than a hundred pounds! ”

"Oh! It's a pleasure. Lorraine suddenly realized, "Disrespectful, farewell." ”

……

Saying goodbye to Mr. Governor, who was so inexplicable, Shaq rubbed his brow wearily, his eyes wandering around Amani.

"Admiral......

"Came back alone?"

"President Drake said, "Seeing that you are too busy, you dare not ......"

"Do you think I'm arrogant?"

Amani's face turned pale: "That, Admiral, anyway, there is still more than half an hour before the port is ready......"

"No need." Shaq boarded the boat with a blank face, not pausing for a moment, "He knows me well. ”

……

Under the Rain Frog, Lorraine was slightly surprised to meet Leonard and Olvis, who were waiting beside him.

"Olvis is here too?"

The tall and heroic Olvis smiled embarrassedly: "Although the captain didn't plan to see me, after all, I had the convenience of my position, so I boldly pretended to be a public servant." ”

"Fake public and private?" Lazy people listen to books

Leonard, whose face was becoming more and more like a good man, patted Olvis's arm.

"The ocean-going fleet was formed, and as I had previously agreed with President Parker, Admiral Corterence would be appointed Admiral, so that the position of Admiral of the Offshore Sea would be vacant. Olvis turned out to be the deputy admiral, and he liked to run on the sea, so he took it seriously. ”

"It turned out to be a promotion." Lorraine smiled and held out her hand, "Congratulations." ”

Olvis smiled even brighter: "It's all the captain's support. ”

Lorraine has always disliked flattering words in front of her own people, so she waved her hand.

"Leonard, has anything changed in the Chamber of Commerce during this time?"

"The ocean-going fleet set sail, and the first batch of three ships, the original Andean, the Lucky Horseshoe and the Jupiter, of course, were all named, and the French were satisfied."

"That's where Chuck excels."

"The Havana peace talks, the Chamber of Commerce was invited in the last three days, and President Parker was present in your place to receive the thanks of the French. As a token of appreciation, we were granted permission to do business in all the colonies of the New World and the privilege of being registered with the Chamber of Commerce of Fort de France, which exempted us from a 30% transaction tax exemption in the Pan-Caribbean. ”

"Flashy stuff." Lorraine pursed her lips boringly, "France is not England, the essence of the Pan-Caribbean is in the Gulf of Mexico, the furs and minerals of the whole of New France, and now the British merchant ship running that line is equivalent to seeking death, and the 30% tax benefit is equivalent to nothing." ”

Leonard was helpless and proud: "Actually, President Parker originally asked for free navigation, but ...... The French were afraid that you would blow up their port, and they would not be able to talk about it, so they replaced it with the embroidered pillows that are now there. ”

"Sure enough." Lorraine shook her head knowingly, and took the information from Henna, "The matter of calling you here this time is very urgent, I received a military intelligence in New Orleans, and I need you to confirm the authenticity and verify it with the original." ”

Leonard carefully flipped through a few pages: "Very internal intelligence......"

"Can you do it?"

"At least two days, and I'll have to go to the Royal Navy dockyard myself."

"Stay safe."

Leonard nodded solemnly.

Seeing that the formal explanation was over, a narrow smile appeared on the good man's face: "Captain, that is the famous Lion, right?" ”

"What? Do you want to hitchhike? ”

"I'm not crazy...... Leonard rolled his eyes in fright, "if you take their Admiral's ship to spy on the core military intelligence, no matter how good the people in it are, they will have to hang me on the turret to prove my innocence." ”

"What's wrong with that?"

"I think it's rare for the captain and his brother to meet, isn't it ......?"

"Don't talk too much." Lorraine raised an eyebrow and patted Leonard's shoulder, his voice dripping softly, "Don't talk too much, old thing." ”

The most important event in Hamilton officially unfolded on August 6, four days before Lorraine's final voyage to New Orleans.

And because it would take two days to bring the results back to New Orleans at the speed of Azure drops, the time left for Leonard and Lorraine was actually stretched.

This made Lorraine more and more desperate to have enough Bermuda galleons inside the chamber of commerce.

The two sides parted ways at the docks, and Leonard immediately visited a district councillor in a horse-drawn carriage, and before night, he sneaked into the heavily guarded Royal Navy dockyard, which occupied the entire island of Northern Ireland, on a supply boat of the Navy.

At the same time, Olvis entered the exchange on the pretext of coordinating logistics, Lorraine and Henna returned to the beach house to wait, and the blue water drops replaced all the crew members, and the private dock of the villa was ready to go at any time, and the whole incident, including the exchanges between the various centers, was taken over by the old man under Olvis, and no more news was revealed.

One night, one day, quietly.

On the night of August 7, a panicked knock rang out at the villa, and Henna opened the door with a gloomy face and ushered in the chaotic Olvis.

"Calm down!" Henna scolded, "What's wrong? ”

"Lady Yesla, Leonard Sr. ......," Alvis gasped intermittently, "someone from the Navy came to the Exchange this morning and said that Leonard had been caught by the patrolling sailors, and now ...... Already in jail! ”
