Chapter 241: News of the North

Gordon smiled with relief, this world is really nothing, gold and silver coins are hard currency, but unfortunately he can't take out all his gold, which is the most angry.

"This little devil may have never seen so much money in his life!"

Mickey was speechless, and he himself was a little envious, where did the captain come up with so much money?

"The gold will be there. Gordon just sighed, and his thoughts flew to the thing Wilson was talking aboutβ€”the Erka.

It was Wilson's bargaining chip, and it was Gordon's acceptance.

The Spanish crown controlled several gold mines on the east coast of Africa and established a local mint, which was transported back to Spain every year by a large ship, but the ship's existence was highly classified and it never docked in port after leaving the shore.

During his brief time as a Templar, Wilson stumbled upon information about the ship, which owned a supply ship named the Delloy, and if he found it, he would be able to find the whereabouts of the Erka.

It is reported that the Oka sets sail every year on Christmas Eve in December and takes advantage of the ocean currents that surround the coast of Africa to begin this journey of about 40 days.

"Millions of gold coins, ......"

Gordon unconsciously lamented that this was not a million pounds, but a million gold coins of full fineness, worth a fortune.

Squeak!

The dilapidated wooden door was pushed open, and it was still the same little sailor, but his attitude was completely different, with irrepressible snickering joy on his face.

"Mr. Gordon, Captain, please come over. ”

Gordon just nodded, and left the little broken cabin with Mickey and the sailor.

The captain's quarters of the Far Voyage were located at the stern of the cabin, and were crowded, with some cargo piled up in the corners.

The captain of the ship was unexpectedly young, probably less than thirty years old, but the scar on his face added a lot of hideousness.

It was breakfast time, and the captain stretched out his hand to sign for a seat, and the sailor brought a lot of rich breakfast.

Gordon didn't understand Dutch, but the captain knew more or less a little English.

"My sailor said you were generous enough to bring me a great deal, and I wanted to hear it. ”

Gordon picked up a piece of bread and dipped it in the vegetarian soup and ate it in a big bite, not at all thinking that he was an outsider: "I want to go to Kingston immediately." ”

The young Dutch captain paused for a moment as he ate: "With all due respect, sir, the present Kingston is not for my ship to interfere with, and I advise you not to go there in the near future." ”

The captain raised his head and looked at the three people in front of him with a scrutinizing eye, he was a man who knew people, and felt that he could see a lot from a person's temperament.

Outstanding!

This is Gordon's strongest feeling for him, everyone's behavior, when dealing with things, their conversation and behavior, coupled with long-term living habits, and the confidence of their own strength, will form a person's aura.

Gordon has a thinking that is beyond this era, a strong physique and a kind of presumptuous chic, although he is smelling of the sea, but he can't hide the atmosphere of the "big man".

"Who are you? There should be your name on the sea. ”

"That's why I had to go to Kingston, my ship and my people were waiting for me. ”

The young captain took a closer look at Gordon's face, "You know what? you reminded me of an interesting man who defeated the undead of the Black Pearl, who had set foot in the primeval jungle of El Dorado, whose wealth was said to buy all of London. Merchants see it as a savior, and pirates see it as fat......"

"Oh, when did I become so famous?"

Gordon muttered to himself, but nothing disturbed the person in front of him.

He just took a bite of bread and continued, "But you can't be him, because yesterday afternoon, the ship named Jackdaw had engaged dozens of pirate ships in this sea, sank two of them, and went north with the flames, which is why I am here." ”

Gordon never thought he would be able to get news of the Jackdaw here, after all, the sea was so big, and one of the ships he casually boarded had witnessed the naval battle of the Jackdaw.

"And another ship? Where else should there be a big ship? The Jackdaw shouldn't have just one ship. ”

Gordon asked abruptly and aloud, causing the latter to froze for a moment.

"I don't know, there was a blast of gunfire at that time, we didn't dare to get closer, and there was a ship you were talking about, maybe there was, maybe not. ”

"Do you know where the Jackdaw is going, take me to him, it's all yours!"

Gordon's words were so unequivocal that he pulled out a large amount of silver coins from his pocket, so much so that the thing completely exceeded the volume of the legs.

"Where did you get it from?"

It was an expected question, but it was not from the Jackdaw's sailor, who rose from his stool in shock, and stepped back in some panic as he watched the silver coins spread all over the table.

The captain of the Far Voyage, who thought he had seen strong winds and waves, was helpless for the first time in the face of extraordinary strength.

The silver coin fell from the tabletop with a dull sound on the wooden floor.

"I'm the captain of that ship, take me to it!"

The captain of the Far Voyage was silent, staring at the silver coins on the table in a daze.

"Deal!"

After all, gold and silver coins are the most convincing things in the world.

"My name is Simpson and Rickard, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Captain Gordon!"

Rickard finally recognized Captain Gordon's identity, after all, there are indeed only a handful of captains on the sea who can bear the name of a wizard.

This time, Gordon's treatment was no longer the stinking dark utility room, but a tidy room, a few hammocks a little monotonous, but just right.

In view of Gordon's unintentional or deliberate reputation on the sea, all men on board were ordered to observe etiquette and be treated in the best possible way.

Simpson was stunned as he looked at a table of silver coins in the captain's room, which definitely exceeded his income for a year, after all, the Far Voyage was just a small ship, and the harvest of each ship had to be exploited by the Chamber of Commerce.

The ship sailed towards the north, and the journey should be dangerous, but as long as there is enough money, there will be someone to take on the mission of life, not to mention that his guests have a great name and strength beyond ordinary people.

Simpson charted a course in the direction he remembered the Jackdaw had left, chasing the drift along the fairway, but the process was very difficult, after all, there was a wind and waves that blew away the mark last night, but thinking about the silver coins on the table, even if it was difficult, it had to be found.

Gordon hung quietly in his hammock, which he hadn't slept in for a long time, following the ship and the waves rocking.

He touched the black mole in his palm, felt the beating of the Norwegian sea monster's heart, and he was calling to fulfill his promise to make this sea the name of Captain Gordon instead of the fat sheep.
