The old and sophisticated Captain Hawkins glanced at the unmoving lady of the northern aristocracy who was sitting there, and then quickly turned his gaze to the young Spanish man beside him and smiled, "Oh, this is the daughter of my trading partner in Plymouth, Brenda. ”

"Brenda? Well, people live up to their name, giving the impression of a successful businesswoman. The young Spanish man recalled the fake name that Captain Hawkins had casually chosen, smiled and put his right hand on his left chest and bowed slightly to Isabel, "Young and beautiful Miss Brenda, please accept the sincere greetings of a plantation owner from Tenerife." ”

"I didn't expect this muddy ball to be a plantation owner?!" Isabelle's hand rubbed her glass lightly, and suddenly she thought, "Damn, how could the captain call me a merchant's daughter!?" ”

Unhurriedly, he put down his glass, stood up, smiled at the Spanish man, and deliberately asked, "Okay, then, can I know the name of the rich grower?" ”

When Isabel stood up, the adjutant of maritime affairs and the artillery commander who were sitting at the table with her almost stood up, and Captain Hawkins hurriedly glanced at the two of them, and the two of them cautiously sat down again.

"Cassiano Avigliana." The Spanish man did not notice the small movement between the captain and the two, and said his name to himself.

"It is my pleasure to meet you, Mr. Avigliana." Isabel just smiled softly.

Then, Isabel turned to Captain Hawkins and said with pretended enthusiasm, "Captain, I believe that the replenishment of each ship is not yet complete. I thought, can I stay on this island a little longer? ”

"Absolutely. Uh, it's almost lunchtime, Brenda, we can get some food here and get back on board. Captain Hawkins' casual remarks immediately gave Isabel a chance to make a legal raid.

"Yes, Captain." Isabel nodded in agreement, thinking that the Spanish plantation owner would invite herself, the captain and the others to the island's plantation for lunch.

Just thinking of this, a hearty laugh erupted from Kasiano's mouth, "Miss Brenda, may I invite you and the captain to my plantation for lunch?" ”

The sudden change made Captain Hawkins not dare to make a decision lightly, and hurriedly looked at Isabel. Isabel smiled, glanced at the captain, and then looked at Cassiano across a wine table, "Well, your opinion is very good, after lunch, take advantage of the afternoon trade wind all the way south." ”

Soon, the group left the tavern with a smile and a smile. While Cassiano was looking for the manned carriage, Isabel walked with her two crew members to an uninhabited open space with a relaxed expression, looked at the sapphire sea in the harbor and said with a smile, "Baldwin, do you want to loot the treasure?" ”

The two men standing behind her glanced at each other with a light in their eyes when they heard the word "treasure." hurriedly took two steps forward, and after looking at his partner, Fast quickly lowered his voice and asked, "Captain, how do you grab it?" ”

"You heard this Mr. Avigliana talk about plantations, didn't you?"

"Yes, Captain, we hear you very well."

"When we've finished lunch on this gentleman's plantation and left, you'll be ready to go."

Baldwin listened carefully to her words, and looked at the various ships on the harbor with a calm expression, "Captain, you will be discovered by others during the day. ”

Isabel paced leisurely, admiring the scenery over the sea and continuing to lay out the legitimate raiding mission, "It's okay, when we leave, you two will immediately re-enter the plantation premises. If this gentleman asks me about you, I can say that you went to the bathroom. ”

"Well, that's a good idea. Also, what should we do if we are seen looking for treasure in the plantation? ”

"Baldwin, we are not pirates, we are legitimate raiders. Under the authority and protection of the royal family, he is being entrusted with a mission to seek justice. ”

The artillery commander on the side, Fast, laughed and patted Baldwin on the shoulder, "My old fellow, do you still feel sorry for the lives of the Spanish colonists and the slaves he bought from Africa to work in?" ”

Baldwin, the maritime adjutant who had listened to his companion for many years, pouted, nodded with a sneer, "That's right, the Spaniards and Portuguese are plundering treasures, slaves and spices everywhere, why should we allow such robbership of theirs to exist legally?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the three people standing on the side of the road laughed in unison. At this time, the plantation owner Cassiano rode back to the road outside the tavern on horseback with two black male ** subordinates who only had a few circles of canvas around their lower bodies.

By the time Kasiano jumped off his horse, Isabel and the other three had naturally walked back to Captain Hawkins. When she saw the other man smiling in her direction, she still had the courtesy smile of a noble lady who was very different from the status of a raider.

When Captain Hawkins caught first glimpse of the carriage, he hurriedly smiled at the plantation owner, "Sir, is your plantation on those hills behind us?" ”

The others present, with the exception of Isabel, developed a strong curiosity about the black slave retinue. Several men took the opportunity to walk up to the side of Cassiano's riding horse and looked the black slave up and down, occasionally touching the slave's hair, face and arms with their hands.

Artillery Commander Fast pinched the bony arm of the black slave and looked at Baldwin curiously, "Old fellow, this is the living goods produced in Africa?" ”

With his back to the crowd and the slaves, Cassiano smiled and glanced at Isabel across from him, then turned his head and smiled at the captain, "No, let the captain, Miss Brenda, and the gentlemen walk to my plantation, and God will punish me severely." ”

Isabel deliberately did not grasp the hilt of the handguard sword at her waist, but put her hands on her hips and looked at him with a smile, and suddenly said in Spanish, "Monsieur Avigliana, what if I don't want to ride in a horse-drawn carriage, but a carriage drawn by a man?" ”

"Absolutely. Oh... Does Miss Brenda speak Spanish? It was so good that I went to pray to God as soon as I got back. ”

"What are you going to pray to God, sir?"

Captain Hawkins knew that Isabel spoke Spanish, so he didn't feel weird about the two conversing in Spanish. Instead, the focus was on two black slaves. When Kasiano was a little speechless, he hurriedly said to him, "Sir, I'll go see your slave." ”
