Chapter 557: The Soul of Sin

The gradual departure of the fleet was not an adventure for the English, but an operation to make a fortune, an operation that gave them a good reward.

For these, the English people in North America, do not care.

And for them, what they care about most is women.

At present, with the accumulation of population, especially the increase in male immigrants, the demand for women is increasing.

And the back and forth of the fleet will take at least half a year, so after Andrews returns, the remaining half a year will be very tormented by everyone.

In particular, the two supply ships that arrived later were mostly male immigrants, and there were very few women, and the number of men had exceeded 500, while the number of women could only exceed 50, and the proportion was too disparity.

In this regard, in the past few months, rape, infidelity and other incidents have emerged one after another, so that Governor Gilbert is overwhelmed, and even busier is His Excellency the Judge, who can be entangled so much that he can't stand it.

"Your Excellency, you have to find a way, this kind of thing needs to end here!"

The judge in his thirties wore glasses and a deep exhaustion on his face, and it was clear that he had not had a good time these days.

"If it continues, the whole colony will be in jeopardy.

Just now, I also heard that in the big dormitory, there are often howls of grievances at night, and when working during the day, many people are limping and people's hearts are in turmoil! ”

Looking at the judge's aggrieved and eager expression, Gilbert, as the governor, was also extremely unhappy in his heart, this kind of thing is very small, but it will endanger the stability of the entire order.

As the Governor, it was his main responsibility to stabilize the entire colony, and at this time, he was very difficult to face such a thing.

There are not many solutions.

"Or, my Mr. Treasurer, spend a little money to buy some female slaves from the sea!"

Looking at his friend Alan. Brady, Gilbert asked with some embarrassment, this kind of thing, for a gentleman like him, is a little difficult to talk about.

"Yes, but I'm afraid that everyone is unwilling, there are emotions, after all, there are some ...... that"

Allan. As a treasurer, Brady has always been stingy about spending money, but recently because of the sale of sweet wine, the colony has become rich, and he is still willing to make this little money.

However, as soon as his words came out, everyone suddenly fell silent, for black slaves, immigrants must be emotional, but for the sake of social stability, this emotion can be ignored.

"My lord, the sow in the pigsty is gone, go and see it! Restless!! ”

Many high-level officials were discussing the content, and suddenly there was a shout of an immigrant outside the door, which was rapid and high, directly breaking the silence among everyone.

"My lord, I was about to go to the pigsty to have a look, but I found that the sow was missing, and only the boar was hitting the wall in uneasiness!"

A young immigrant was stopped outside the door, but screaming, nervous and uneasy, his face pale, as if he had guessed something.

"Let's go, let's go and have a look!" Gilbert frowned when he heard this, this sow was bred with another boar in the pen, and the whole colony was counting on it to breed pigs, and if anything happened, it would be bad.

For the only sow in the colony, especially the sudden bad premonition in their hearts, they suddenly became uneasy.

As for why this person went to the pigsty, there is no time to investigate now.

Knock knock, knock knock –

The sound of everyone's hurried footsteps seemed to be beating on their restless hearts, but instead prompted their steps to become more messy.

"Whew-woo-woo!" "Cool-" "Whew-"

"Woo-" "Hum-hum~"

After searching for most of the day, I finally found a wood, and then I heard a scream, which made the people who heard it sad and those who saw it wept.

Outside the woods, hundreds of immigrants held on to the trees, laughing non-stop, and some even looked like relatives, as if they knew the people in the woods.

Some people, holding their buttocks, have unpredictable expressions on their faces.

Most of them sighed, and they were speechless for this kind of scene, and they couldn't come up with any words to say.

The few people inside, as if intoxicated by it, couldn't extricate themselves, and didn't notice the people outside the woods.

Gilbert and the others looked for this place, looking at each other, and the Governor looked at the few figures that were faintly visible inside, as well as the huge sow body, although it was obscured by the leaves, but it was clearly visible.

"Alas! Let's go, let's go! The Doge sighed when he heard the snorting from inside, then shook his head, drove everyone away, looked at them one last with a look of shame, and then departed.

Seeing that the Governor was like this, everyone could only be reluctant, no, they left with a pale face, and their steps were fast, as if they had been pricked by a needle.

About half an hour later, three young, strong, but adrift migrants, carefully carrying an exhausted, half-fat sow on a plank, departed step by step, and then slowly placed in the wide pigsty.

After looking around, the three of them shook their heads and left carefully, ignoring the angry gaze of the big boar in the pigsty and the miserable eyes of the sow.

All this happens without words.

"Gotta go, hurry up, go buy blacks now, urgently-"

As soon as he returned to the office, Gilbert sat down on the bench and said angrily and impatiently to the treasurer.

As the Governor-General, he did not expect that the current situation had become so bad that if it continued, the collapse of the entire colony would be possible!

"If you buy it now, it may be too late in time, and the sooner this kind of thing is resolved, the better! O filthy soul! ”

Pastor Graffro made a cross on his chest, his eyebrows lowered, and he said with pity on his face.

"It must be the invasion of the devil, which has defiled their confused hearts, and only to spread the glory of our lord can this vile and sinful soul be touched, and their sins washed away, and the light of our lord may shine again on Edwardton, a.m.—"

Hearing the priest's words, Gilbert couldn't help frowning, to be honest, at present, it was a very bad plan to make enemies with the Indians so quickly.

However, things have come to this point, and the number of immigrants is accumulating, and more and more land is needed, so it is necessary to develop it first.

"But, Lord Governor, as a judge, allow me to explain that those men have violated the laws and regulations of the colony and destroyed public property, and I am about to put them on trial, so please delay the time a little!"

Just as Gilbert was about to speak, His Excellency the Judge suddenly spoke.
