Chapter Eighty-Six: The Kidnapping Plan

Gordon looked at the people in the tavern, and then whispered to Kulich on the side, "Didn't you say that there was some pirate alliance here? These people don't look like pirates." ”

Kulic lowered his voice: "You have to know that 80 percent of the pirates in the Caribbean come from here. ”

"So?"

"Decades ago, these guys pretended to be extraditers to lead passing ships to the reef, and when the ship sank, they would have robbed it directly, tsk, that scene, if it weren't for the rotation of the Spanish Navy and the French Navy for forty years, this place would be so clean?"

Gordon still shook his head and didn't understand, what about pirates?

"Let me tell you this, after a dozen extreme purges, Nassau was also destroyed a dozen times, so the pirates also learned wisely, they began to know how to operate, plunder a little farther, resupply in Nassau, and now most of the pirates who went out of Nassau have taken root in the southern part of the Bahamas, and the dense islands and reefs are their best hiding places. Gordon looked at Kulić with a smug expression, these are all his experience in running a business for more than 20 years, many new captains dare not resupply in Nassau, but he dares to choose this place as a supply port.

"So Nassau is still a free trade port that is not occupied by the state, that is, a pirate port?"

In fact, the whole of the Bahamas was divided in 1670 among six British nobles, nominally British lands, but in reality, unmanageable. ”

Gordon nodded, he already understood, this place is called Pirate Harbor, but not all pirates gather here, and they also have to guard against the liquidation of the navies of all sides, so there is now Nassau.

"Captain, the wine has been returned. ”

At this point, Alan walked back and placed four or five bottles of rum in his arms on the table.

Gordon took a bottle of wine, uncorked it, and took two large sips.

"Ahem...... Ahem!"

It may be a little anxious, a violent cough.

"Captain, you'd better take good care of your body, you can't go on like this. ”

Mickey also picked up a bottle of wine, and Gordon's original body didn't make such a small mistake.

"Ahem, it's okay, ahem, Mitch, tell everyone to be honest on this island, don't get into trouble, get supplies ready tomorrow, and we'll leave when the storm is over." ”

"Got it, Captain. ”

The rain continued to fall in Nassau, and from the back of the tavern, a sneaky man braved the heavy rain and ran into a courtyard high up.

"Captain, it seems that there is a big fish. ”

Because of this heavy rain, Ben Hornigold, who was resupplying, was blocked in the harbor, and of course rested in the best house in Nassau Harbor.

"What big fish?"

From the chair by the window sat a spirited young man, with brown hair, neatly groomed backwards, and a strong body, who looked not like a pirate in anyone, but an elegant gentleman, or even a nobleman.

He didn't look up, but continued to buse what he was doing, writing something.

"Captain, there is an English merchant ship from Havana, and the sailors are squandering in the tavern, and they have heard from one of them what treasure they have salvaged. ”

Ben thought about it for a long time, when he made a pact with Ronchi and Chid to form a pirate alliance, not to plunder the port, just to develop this place, and then expand the alliance with the help of funds, this plan has been going on for more than three years, he doesn't want to destroy it like this.

He raised his head and asked the obscene man, "What is the size of their ships?

If there are fewer men and less weapons, the pirates can get the cowardly merchants to surrender as soon as they are frightened, and they may consider following them out of the harbor and launching a sneak attack.

The obscene pirate shook his head: "They just arrived at the port, braving the torrential rain, at least seventy people came down from the ship, but they are all young people, they should not have seen blood, it is easy to deal with it." ”

Hearing this, Ban also began to feel a little moved, and then pointed to his henchmen on the side: "You bring two people, tie one person back for me, and confirm the news first." ”

"Yes, Captain. ”

In the midst of the heavy rain, four people went out of the courtyard, and the leader was naturally the obscene pirate.

The four of them swaggered back into the tavern, frowning at the somewhat crowded place, but finally found a seat in a corner and sat down.

The lewd pirate stealthily pointed to the table where Gordon was located: "Big brother, it should be the captain over there." ”

The stout pirate looked at the four men at the table, three relatives in their twenties, a somewhat rich fellow, and if nothing else, the fat man should be a merchant, and one of those three might be the captain he had recruited.

He made a look, and several people buried their heads: "This kind of goods, directly tie up the leader, intimidate, absolutely everything, I have seen a lot of this kind of businessman, how can money and life be important." ”

"Mondstadt, the captain just asked us to kidnap people to confirm the news......"

Another pirate whispered.

"I'm going to say to you, why are you so unproductive? That's why I'm a boatswain, and you're still a sailor, listen to me, and for a while, you stare at that fat man, find a place to live, and get straight to it later." ”

The pirate wanted to say something, but looking at the lewd pirate, and the other person were very convinced, and were already eager to try, they had to nod in agreement: "Okay, listen to you." ”

The night was getting a little deeper, and Gordon and his party had finished drinking, and divided into several groups and stayed in taverns and hotels, although the conditions were a little simple, but after all, they were much better than on the ship.

The sailors lived in four or five together, and as for Gordon, he slept in the same room as Kurich, and next door to Mickey and Allen slept.

Gordon didn't close his eyes for three days, he was a little too sleepy, plus he drank a lot of wine, and when he returned to the hotel, he slept upside down, his boots and clothes were not taken off, and he fell asleep, Kurich smiled a little bitterly, and after covering Gordon with the quilt, he also went to another bed to sleep, and everyone was tired during this time of day and night, as the first mate, he didn't have to sleep much more than Gordon, the captain, and how many people could sleep peacefully? Maybe there will be sea water and rainwater pouring down, and the cold wind blowing.

The two fell asleep unsuspecting, unaware that they had become the target of others, and the four pirates hid in the shadows of the staircase, listening to all the sounds disappear except for the snoring of Kulić.

Mondstadt rubbed his somewhat cold hands, then commanded the other three, "Go!"
