vs 168 O'Connor's Bad Idea

"That's bad, isn't it?"

"That's right, Duncan. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this is simply terrible. O'Connor stared intently at the busy harbor in front of him as he spat into the sea. Damn British. โ€

O'Connor was of Irish descent, and therefore rightfully hated the British, and now that hatred was stronger than everโ€”for no reason at all, that British colonial officials in Cape Harbour had forbidden any of the passengers on the Black Swan to go ashore.

O'Connor believes that this was a deliberate action by the British, because he was of Irish descent, and many of the mercenaries on board were Irish immigrants, followed by blacks, Chinese and Mexicans, all of whom were the targets of British discrimination, so the port authorities must have done it intentionally.

"Damn British!"

"yes, they do damn it." Duncan was almost as unhappy as O'Connor. For the first time as a U.S. citizen, he had to be stranded on a passenger ship for some inexplicable reason that no one knew about, and that was obviously unreasonable. "Sooner or later, those guys will pay for it."

After a few seconds, Duncan emphasized again. "They're going to pay the price."

O'Connor sighed heavily. Revenge on a few pesky Britons is as simple as hiring a few thugs or even sending a squad of mercenaries outright to pay them dearly. But the problem is that there is no value in just taking revenge on these little people, and the real meaningful action is to take revenge on the whole of Britain, which is yet an impossible task...... Wait a minute.

O'Connor suddenly came up with a great idea...... He thinks it's a good idea. "What do you think of the Boers, Duncan?"

"Boers?" Duncan, who was complaining to himself, slowly raised his head and shot two confused glances at him, "Sean, why did you suddenly mention these guys?" โ€

The Boers, Qin Lang had hoped that they would be the company's first overseas users, but the guys preferred to wait for Kaiser Wilhelm II to make good on his verbal promise - in fact, it was not even a verbal promise, and the stupid Boers would never want to receive military aid from Germany, not even a Mauser rifle.

What's even more unfortunate is that their attitude also makes Qin Lang very unpleasant. Based on Duncan's understanding of him and his past performance, Qin Lang will definitely take revenge; While it is unclear exactly what he would have done, it is certain that the Boers would have paid dearly for their mistakes.

Of course, that would happen later, and Qin Lang hadn't mentioned any new plans against the Boers...... So what does O'Connor mean?

"I have an idea." O'Connor said.

"Let me think about it," but Duncan wasted no time thinking about it, "that shouldn't be a good idea." โ€

It is a well-known fact that Duncan has hardly ever come up with any good ideas, but rather many bad ones, such as the absurd plan to form a labor association in the factory, which was stifled by Qin Lang and Rachel, which of course disappointed him, but other than that, just out of jealousy, he thought that O'Connor could not have come up with any good ideas.

And, of course, easy water.

His attitude disappointed O'Connor. "You really break my heart, Duncan." He shook his head, "I haven't said anything yet, and you've already concluded that it's not a good idea." โ€

"I'm confident in my judgment."

"Your judgment? Duncan, that sounds like a joke. โ€

Regardless of whether O'Connor said it was true or not, Duncan felt a little annoyed, so he said, "Sean, you know that Qin once said that all bad ideas look like a good idea until it turns out to be a bad idea. So, whatever your plan is, it's best to wait until we return to San Diego before bringing it up. โ€

"At least Qin will listen to my plan before he says so." O'Connor grunted and shrugged, but gave up on telling his mind about the plan. Of course, deep down in his heart, he had no doubt that he had an excellent idea in mind and was happy about it.

In fact, O'Connor's plan was simple: arm the Boers and use them to get revenge on the British.

Anyone, including the Boers themselves, could easily see that it was only a matter of time before Devasland was eventually annexed by the British. But the Boers would not so easily admit defeat and lay down their arms and surrender to the British, they would choose to fight to the end, while trying to delay the military assistance provided by Kaiser Wilhelm II - but they would never wait for German assistance, which Qin Lang had foreseen.

The Boers would also eventually understand that the promise of the German emperor was just a blank check, but by that time they would no longer be able to stop the war with the British, so they would do everything they could to buy weapons and equipment everywhere. It is at this time that the company will be in front of them again in the right place and bring them what they need.

Of course, the weapons and ammunition would never be free, and on the contrary, they would be quite expensive, but even then, the Boers had no choice but to accept them all. However, the number of those weapons was also not enough to turn the Boers around, and only allowed them to inflict large enough losses on the British army.

O'Connor thought that by doing so, he would satisfy both his and Qin Lang's demands: he wanted to take revenge on the British, which would be done by the Boers; Qin Lang hoped to teach the Boers a lesson, and the British army would help him do this - the British would redouble their revenge on the losses inflicted on them by the Boers, many Boers would die, and the rest would lose everything they had before.

It's a great idea. Although it was still a little rough, it was indeed a good idea, and he was sure that Qin Lang would definitely agree to this planโ€”however, it was just wishful thinking on his part.

There was a fatal flaw in the plan, but he did not see it.

So O'Connor was still happy, and he laughed, and the resentment and anger in his heart that had arisen from being forbidden to go ashore by British officials vanished in an instant, as if they had never arisen before; Now he's in a great mood.

His laughter confused Duncan considerably. At first he couldn't figure out why he was so happy all of a sudden, but soon he realized that it was clearly because of the "great idea" he had come up with.

"You're laughing too soon, Sean." He admonished, but O'Connor didn't listen.

Duncan shook his head, rather regretting that his admonition had not had the desired effect. He was tempted to say something more, but his mind was empty and he could not think of any suitable words, and finally, after a little hesitation, he reluctantly gave up the plan, and turned to leave.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw the captain of the "Black Swan" walking towards them.

"Captain Henderson," Duncan smiled as he walked toward the captain, "you've got a call back from San Diego?" โ€

In fact, he didn't want to smile at him at all, in fact, Duncan wanted to beat this guy up. From the moment he was asked to turn around and search for the Freedom, Henderson was complaining about the losses he would suffer, and then he began to demand an increase in the amount of commission on the lease.

A complete villain. That's what Duncan had to say about him.

But Henderson was one of the few lucky people on the passenger ship who was allowed to go ashore, and Duncan and O'Connor could only entrust him to send telegrams to Qin Lang and Rachel and be responsible for receiving calls; Although they neither liked nor trusted this nasty guy, now they also have no choice. So Duncan had to give up the idea of beating him up for the time being and smile at him.

However, although Henderson is a money-hungry villain, as long as it is what he promises, he will definitely do his best. "Mr. Sandy, I've got a telegram from your company." He said loudly, as if to make every pair of ears hear, "Now we can set sail for Djibouti." โ€

"Wait, Captain." Duncan stopped him, "What did the telegram say?" โ€

Henderson shrugged. "Liberty is being overhauled in Chile - its boiler has failed. However, your company has found another cargo ship to transport the goods and people on board, and they will join you in Djibouti. So you don't have to worry about anything, Mr. Sandy, and we're good to go. "We've wasted too much time," he stressed. โ€

"I said it, and I'm very sorry for that." Duncan breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the "Freedom" didn't sink into the sea with the people and cargo on board, and Qin Lang also found a new ship to replace her, which is really good.

He grew happy and nodded. "Let's go, Mr. Henderson."

Henderson didn't say anything more, just smiled, and turned around and walked towards the bridge. Of course Duncan could feel it, he seemed very happy, and of course it was not surprising, he had always wanted to get to Djibouti as soon as possible, and now ......

"I can bet you that he must have done something in the telegram."

"What?" Duncan turned his head sideways and looked at O'Connor in confusion, "Why do you think that, Sean?" โ€

"Don't you think it's strange, Duncan? Henderson would raise the rent every time he saw us, but he didn't say a word about it just now. It seems to me that he must have made this request to Qin and Rachel in our name in the telegram. โ€

"And Qin and Rachel also agreed." Duncan snorted, "This guy will definitely pay the price." โ€
