Chapter 327: Arriving at the Supply Depot
People who have never been to the sea usually have a longing for the sea, and they envy those who live by the sea. Usually shout a few words on the Internet, the sea is a man's romance, and our journey is the stars and the sea or something.
Even if this kind of person arrives at the beach, he will only feel that the sea is really vast, and the sun on the seaside is really poisonous, well, and the seafood by the sea is really cheap, and the people who live here are really happy......
When these people actually sail into the sea in a boat, I'm afraid they won't think so.
The sea is indeed very vast, but when you really step into it, you will have a sense of panic, the surrounding is extremely empty, there is only one small boat floating in the wind between the whole heaven and earth, coupled with the scorching sun, heavy labor, and monotonous diet, many people will suffer from anxiety or wilderness phobia.
Moreover, sailors were usually a high-risk occupation at that time, not only were they busy maneuvering saillines, scrubbing decks, tidying up their belongings, repairing ships, doing all kinds of heavy and dangerous work with no protection, but they also had to deal with all kinds of pirates who blocked the way, and if they were unlucky, they also suffered from occupational diseases such as sepsis. As a result, many sailors squander their money as soon as they come ashore. Because they don't know if they will live until the next time......
This group of sailors under Li Mu is like this. As soon as the ship docked at the Gold Coast supply point, the sailors disembarked in groups and went to have fun.
And Li Mu, under the leadership of the first mate, exchanged all the supplies on the ship for supplies, of course, all kinds of fruits, meat and rum accounted for the majority. This made the first mate very happy. After all, such a generous captain is very rare. Most captains keep the necessities at a very low level in order to control costs. It is really rare for a captain like Li Mu to purchase supplies at any cost.
The person in charge of the goods was a middle-aged white man named Occam, who was said to be Dutch, but he did all kinds of business, and it is said that there were even pirates who sold stolen goods from him, but no one has confirmed this. Well, those who can be confirmed are either gagged with money, or tied up and thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
Don't say how Occam is a person, at least he is a child who is not deceived in business. Although the first mate kept talking about the loss, the quality of the materials delivered by Occam was still guaranteed. After the first mate's identification, at least none of these rums are fakes mixed with water.
After solving the problem of supplies, Li Mu sent the first mate to transport the supplies back to the ship, while he himself took Shuang'er to wander around the streets of the supply point.
The supply depot is small, about the size of a small town, and there are even indigenous women who can be seen selling furs, ivory and other specialties in exchange for salt and cloth along the streets.
Some people may think that the main profit in the triangular trade was black slaves, but this is not the case. A large part of the profits at that time were high-value items such as furs, ivory, and precious stones. The slave trade was only one part of it, and it was only widely known because it was a bloody process.
Li Mu is not interested in this matter, anyway, it has nothing to do with him, if someone hits him on the head, he doesn't mind throwing the other party into the sea to feed the sharks. You know, it's not far from the slave trade route, and many shark groups depend on this route for their livelihood.
He mainly wants to see if there are any local specialties and delicacies in this supply station, and by the way, to see if he can pick up any clues or quest clues to find some treasures.
The former is the need of the twins. With Shuang'er, a snack item, Li Mu has become accustomed to collecting local delicacies whenever he goes to a place. Li Mu thinks this is a good mood of life. Life always has to be a little fun, otherwise, what is he so desperate for in pursuit of immortality?
As for the latter, it is a habit of Li Mu himself. Perhaps because of his adventurous nature, Li Mu would habitually see if there were any clues to the treasure whenever he went to a place, and he went to ask the world by chance again. At that time, he didn't do anything in the mission world, and Leng bought a treasure map and dug up more than a hundred treasures. This time the Pirates of the Caribbean world is also a world with a huge treasure trove, and every movie revolves around one or a few treasures.
Moreover, these are just the tip of the iceberg shown in the movie, and there are even more that are not shown. For example, the golden city of the Incas, the treasures of the Mayans, the mysterious witchcraft of the Indians, the Atlantis under the sea, the Kraken and the mermaid, the North Sea Monster, etc., are all widely known, as for those who are not famous, there are even more of them, maybe you can dig up a treasure chest with a shovel on a desert island, well, it may be a rum hidden by some unscrupulous captain......
Anyway, Li Mu is planning to experience the fun of a treasure hunter in this world.
The reality, though, is a little harsh. Although there are many treasures in this world, there are not many of them that can be encountered in a small supply depot. However, Li Mu was not disappointed by this, anyway, it was a rainy day to beat the child, and he was idle. It's just a walk away. Moreover, looking at the pair carrying a large number of delicious shuang'er next to him, Li Mu felt that this time there was still a huge harvest. Making the people around you happy is the greatest happiness.
Just when Li Mu accompanied Shuang'er to happily stroll through the market of the supply point, on the other side of the sea, in other corners of the world, one by one gamers also entered the world of Pirates of the Caribbean.
In a remote alley in the port of Havana, four strangely dressed people suddenly appeared. A cat rummaging through the garbage looked at the four people who suddenly emerged from the void, and meowed in fright.
However, the four of them didn't care, but instead took a step back and looked at each other.
"Yo, isn't this Brother Chicken Leg? I haven't seen you for many days, how are my days? Suddenly, a young man in leather armor seemed to recognize the person opposite.
The man known as the chicken leg brother wears an outdoor hiking outfit with a black vest full of pockets and a chicken leg in his mouth. Brother Chicken Leg took the chicken leg off his mouth, looked up and down, and the young man in leather armor on the opposite side patted his head and suddenly realized, "It turned out to be Abin, you, long time no see, long time no see, I didn't expect that day of farewell, we have met now." Then the chicken leg turned to the side again, "Ah, Goddess Momo, you are here too." It's a coincidence. ”
"It's so annoying, they're boys, have you forgotten?" The "girl" in the black dress said silently and shyly.
"It seems that everyone knows each other, this is easy to do, meeting is fate, why don't we form an alliance for the time being, and deal with other players together, you know, this is a team battle world." At this moment, a short, small man with a pair of big cute ears stepped out of the shadows.
