The Pearl, which was scheduled to leave today, was stopped by Gordon, saying that he still needed to purchase something, and re-asked Kulich to send the crew all the silver coins to correct it for a day.

This proposal was supported by everyone, if you ignore Kurich's murderous gaze.

The income from this voyage has only gone into the account of three hundred silver coins so far, and more than a hundred have been spent here.

And Gordon didn't have the heart to take care of him at this time, but stared at Aldrich and Alva who came out of the Loren.

The Doron is a glamorous slur on the surface, scavenging slaves and looting treasure from the African lands, but secretly it also has ties to pirates. After all, pirates also need a way to sell their stolen goods.

A month earlier, Aldrich had acquired a treasure map from a pirate leader, which was supposed to be a full-sail, three-masted merchant ship sunk in the northeastern waters of Havana due to a storm.

The ship, called the Elizabeth, was a priceless ship that carried jewels for the royal family, surrounded by a fleet of royal navy guards who had been scavenged from the American continent and carefully selected for the finest jewels.

But in the sweeping storm twenty years ago, the departing ships were barely spared, and the Elizabeth sank into the sea with three frigates.

According to the records of the star map and sextant at that time, plus the speed and current at that time, the approximate location of the final sinking of the merchant ship was calculated.

This map looks invaluable to Aldrich.

However, the truth of the news is a question, and he has become accustomed to hiding in the dark for a long time, and he does not want to be pushed to the forefront because of this incident.

If this kind of thing is exposed, it will not only be subject to official pressure, after all, he is part of the East India Company's fleet, but it will also cause a pirate carnival to include him in the scope of prey, unless he will never go to sea again for the rest of his life.

Aldrich was satisfied with his current situation, so he was not prepared to take the risk, but was prepared to find a suitable buyer in the various ports and make enough profits, rather than standing in danger.

Amos had been in Cayenne for almost a week, and the buyers were still preparing to mobilize funds for today's trade.

But the night before, Amos and the two sailors had been killed in the alley, and their belongings had been swept away, including the chart, which had not been used as an indicator, and it would have been a fool's dream to catch a shipwreck in the middle of the sea.

So today it was not only the guards who were looking for the Assassin from last night, but also Aldrich's men, nearly seventy sailors poured into the harbor to search for the whereabouts of the Assassin.

"Who knows about the treasure map?" Aldrich asked Alva on the side.

"Captain, I never mentioned it to anyone, and if Amos was the same, only the three of us and the buyer would know. ”

"Donner, I knew this slick merchant couldn't be trusted, go, and set up his exchange!"

"Wait, Captain, but we don't know if Amos himself drank too much and said it, which led to his death, and Donner has too much power in this port, so we better not clash head-on." ”

Avar was a little speechless.

Aldrich stared at him: "Don't mother-in-law, just say anything." ”

Avar continued: "This matter is not suitable for making a big fuss, if this matter is known to the world, it is impossible to say who will end up with the map. ”

Aldrich kicked over the barrel by the harbor: "If it was really Donner's order, we will put up with it?"

Avar approached Aldrich and whispered, "We're ...... ...... like this"

Aldrich nodded, then instructed the sailors to inquire about the Assassins throughout Cayenne, and then led Alva and the two to Donner's Exchange.

went straight to the second floor and pushed open Donner's office room.

Donner, who was checking the accounts, didn't even look up, and could tell who was coming by listening to the footsteps and the rough push of the door.

"I heard that your boatswain, the stumbling-looking Amos, was cut down?"

Aldrich lifted a chair and sat down, his face gloomy.

"Did your people do it?"

Donner stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head, and said with interest: "You just brought someone to Xingshi to ask for the guilt? Besides, you think I will kill someone because of two thousand gold coins? You really underestimate my exchange." And as far as I know, the assassin last night was very professional, and this kind of person is very expensive, and you really value him when he uses it against Amos. ”

He shook his head, and went on with his business.

"The deal is canceled, you don't have the goods in your hands, get out. ”

Donner didn't raise his head, but walked in from outside the door with two strong men with knives, staring at them.

But Aldrich didn't panic at all.

"We can continue to trade because Amos is not really a treasure map. But to avoid surprises, I propose to set it at tomorrow's pier. ”

After saying that, he didn't wait for Donner to answer, but turned around and left.

Downer thought about it for a long time and decided to continue trading.

"Strange, is the money all ready?"

A secret door opened from the side of the room, and out of it came a middle-aged man who was a little blessed.

"Boss, the money is ready, but Aldrich's words don't seem to be true. ”

Donner shook his head and said it didn't matter.

"I don't care if he is confident that he can get the treasure map back tomorrow, or if he is a dead duck with a hard mouth, we will inspect the goods first, if not, then let him not eat and walk around. ”

The man who became Strange nodded, then closed the secret door again.

Inside, there is a cave, a staircase leading directly to the ground, and there is a huge space inside, filled with gunpowder, guns, cannons, and scimitars.

Donner is not so kind as he seems, this seemingly legal and orderly exchange is secretly selling weapons, no matter who it is, as long as they can afford it, the profit is extremely huge, you must know that the reason why pirates are suppressed by the regular army is that in addition to the lax discipline, there is also the restriction of weapon supply.

The sailors of the Loren had been out for a day, but all they heard were rumors, nothing practical, and Aldrich, when he returned to his ship, had already arranged for all the sailors to be on guard, and there might be a surprise attack by the enemy at night.

Yes, he told Donner that the map was fake on purpose, and if it was really Donner's man, or if his target was really a treasure map, then there was a high probability that he would visit again tonight, and all Aldrich needed to do was wait for the daring assassin to throw himself into the net.

If you say that you guess wrong, of course, you can only consider yourself unlucky, which is already the most likely possibility at present, isn't it?
