Chapter 53 The East India Company's Proposal
Chapter 53 East India Company Recommendations
Although Lan Ze said very politely, Lan Ze was telling the truth, in this country composed of nobles, even the East India Company could not arrest a single earl and a baron.
But this time Gary came prepared!
took out an envelope from his arms, which contained three arrest warrants signed by His Majesty the King himself, Count Gary was very excited to throw the three arrest warrants on Lan Ze's face, he had always wanted to do this, but unfortunately he never dared, but this time, His Majesty's arrest warrant gave Count Gary a hope, Lan Ze was about to end!
However, the three arrest warrants were not thrown on Lan Ze's face, but were blocked by the kerosene lamp that Lan Ze picked up on the side, and then the kerosene lamp shattered, and the burning kerosene ignited the three arrest warrants, and the sudden fire made Count Gary startled, and reflexively ducked back, and when he reacted, the arrest warrant had been burned.
"Damn it! Lan Ze, you actually dare to ruin the king's arrest warrant! Someone will kill Lan Ze for me! Looking at the black ash on the ground, Count Gary had an ugly face, and looked at Lan Ze gritting his teeth and said, and the soldiers around him quickly drew their swords.
"Gary, you are so bold that you dare to slander the nobles! What to see! Don't give it to me yet, Count Gary tied me up! Looking at the navy that had already drawn his sword, Lan Ze shouted, and shouted at Count Gary with righteous words, and at the same time shocked the surrounding navy.
"Damn, who do you say slanders the aristocracy? You criminal! Count Gary looked at Lan Ze very angrily, but Count Gary was even more angry, and the surrounding navy was undecided.
But this can't be blamed on these soldiers, although the Royal Docks belong to the British Empire, but they also belong to the territory of Governor Swan, and there are more than 2,000 guards to guard the force, with the arrival of their own 3,000 people's navy, the Navy of the Royal Docks has also entered a state of alert, in case the two armies exchange fire, it will be bad!
"I'm a criminal?" Lan Ze snorted coldly: "You said I was a criminal, what about your evidence?" As long as there is no evidence, I see who dares to touch me today! I am also an earl of the British Empire no matter how I say it! β
"Damn, you've burned all the wanted warrants! You told me to go up there and find evidence! Damn it! Looking at the gray and black on the ground, Earl Gary's face was ugly.
"Alright, Count Gary, it's time to put an end to this farce, all the soldiers stand down!" A man who was not tall and dressed as an aristocrat walked over, and the surrounding navies gave way.
"Beckett?" Governor Swan said with some uncertainty.
"It's Lord Beckett," Beckett said emphatically, "Earl Swan, long time no see." "A faint smile, a gentle temperament, kind facial features, standard aristocratic etiquette.
Lord Beckett, or should be called Marquis Beckett, this man exudes kindness at every point, but all the kindness combined makes Lan Ze feel a false aura, which makes Lan Ze a little displeased, frowned, and looked at Lord Becket in front of him in confusion: "Who are you?" β
"Lord Beckett, who is now mainly in charge of the East India Company's trade and enemy plunder in the Pirates of the Caribbean, I don't know if my answer is satisfied?" With a smile, Beckett made a very standard aristocratic etiquette: "If we can, I think we can talk in another place, after all, this kind of weather is really not a good choice outside." β
"Lord Beckett, I think my hall should be perfect for conversation, it's warm and cozy." Governor Swan hesitated for a moment, and then made a suggestion, and there were a lot of things going on today, so that his mind could not react a little.
"This is fantastic, my friend, it just so happens that I have brought black tea from London, and I'm sure you'll love it, by the way, do you have lemons?" With a good-natured smile, Governor Swan led Lord Beckett to the living room of the Governor's Palace.
Sometimes the gap between people is really big, for example, Beckett in front of him is obviously much stronger than Gary in terms of brain and eloquence.
From the customs of the Caribbean, to the mysterious East, the icy North and South Poles, and the exotic animals of Australia, no matter what the topic is, as long as it comes to the customs and customs, Beckett can always talk about it.
Similarly, the black tea brought by Beckett is also very good, ruddy and clear, fragrant, especially in this elegant and comfortable environment, the hearty hot and cold snacks and high-end tea sets are matched together, which has a special taste.
Silver tea set teapots, all sparkling silver and crystal clear. On such a gloomy rainy day, the silver tea set will become more and more shiny and crystal in the dark weather, instantly attracting attention.
Although the lack of elegant music is a bit disappointing, the crisp sound of raindrops is still a good accompaniment.
Both sides were very restrained from mentioning the arrest warrant, but as the conversation ended, Beckett bared his sharp fangs.
"Mr. Lanzer, I don't know if you recognize a pirate named Jack Perry!" Sipping black tea, Beckett's movements are still very elegant, but Lan Ze hates it, this kind of hypocritical elegance.
"Jack Perry?" Lan Ze smiled: "Although I don't want to admit it, I don't think I can fool you, that's right, I know Jack Perry." β
"A wise answer, in fact I have ample witnesses to prove that Mr. Lanzer and Mr. Will had a long contact with the pirate Jack Perry." Putting down the teacup in his hand, the silver spoon became more and more shiny on a gloomy rainy day.
"You're warning me?" Lan Ze frowned and looked at Beckett with some annoyance.
"No, I'm just stating a fact," Beckett shook his head and looked at Lan Ze: "Mr. Lan Ze, you are a smart person, you should know very well that your current situation is not good, although the three wanted warrants have been burned by you, of course, you can refuse, but you and I both know that you are not safe now." β
Beckett picked up the lemon slicer from the table, cut a slice of lemon, put it in the teapot, shook the small silver-plated teapot, and said casually: "Actually, you also know very well that most of the so-called witnesses are also fake, and I am also helpless about this matter, but there is no way, Mr. Lanzer and Mr. Will should be the only people who can find Jack Perry, so you have no choice." β
"It's a vicious plan, but what does it have to do with me?" Lan Ze took a sip of the black tea that Beckett had refilled for himself and nodded: "The black tea is good." β
"How could it not matter?" Beckett looked at Lan Ze in surprise: "Count Lan Ze won't think that if you burn a wanted warrant once, there won't be a wanted warrant next time, right?" β
"I'm not that naΓ―ve, but I just need to keep the wanted warrant out of me, the weather in the Caribbean is not good, the sea is not peaceful, you say? Marquis of Beckett. Looking at Beckett in front of him, a trace of coldness flashed in Lan Ze's eyes, the threat of Hongguoguo directly, as long as you dare to come, I will dare to kill! Who is distressed when I see it!
"You're right, Mr. Lanzer, the weather in the Caribbean is good, but it can't be that bad for the rest of your life." Beckett's face was a little ugly, and Lan Ze's threat made Beckett feel that the plan that should have been a sure victory might not go well.
"Of course, the weather in the Caribbean can't be so bad forever, but in the next year or two, it probably won't be that good." Lan Ze looked at Beckett and sneered, it takes a lot of time to travel from London, England to Port Royal in the Caribbean, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation of three thousand people is not a small amount, especially in the British Empire, which is now adrift, and this guy in front of him is not simple.
Throughout Pirates of the Caribbean 1234, the highest personal IQ is recognized as Captain Jack Perry, and Elizabeth's EQ and IQ are also very high, especially in critical moments, such as setting fire to rum, and the captain who was almost killed in the second part.
But if you talk about strategy, if you talk about the big picture, Beckett is definitely an invisible genius.
When Pirates of the Caribbean was in the first part, the navy was in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, although it was very majestic, but the pirates were not afraid, but in the second part, Beckett appeared, without a single soldier, Jack Perry went to the end of the world, although the magic compass did not arrive, but got Jones's heart.
In the third part, the overall strength of the pirates was greatly damaged!
As for the fourth part, except for a very few pirates, most of the pirates have been managed by the British Sea, and even Blackbeard almost made a wedding dress for the navy.
Although unremarkable, this Beckett is not simple.
Beckett looked into Lan Ze's eyes, his eyes were scrutinized, the two looked at each other for a full five minutes, Beckett sighed: "You're right, a year or two is indeed a bit bad, and I don't have time to waste Mr. Lan Ze here, exempt from wanted warrants, plunder permits, titles of the highest marquis, and no more than a thousand subordinates, and no more than five thousand acres of territory in Ireland, this is the greatest possibility I can give." β
"What do you need? That compass from Jack Perry? Or Jones' heart? Lan Ze sipped his black tea and looked at Beckett with a smile: "If you want these two things, your chips seem to be a little insufficient." β
"If you don't have enough chips, Jones's heart and Sparrow's compass are all good things, but I want to know Tiadom's whereabouts!" Beckett's eyes stared at Lan Ze, especially when he said Tia Doma, his eyes stared at Lan Ze's eyes without blinking, but Lan Ze's eyes were very flat, or had to be flat.
"Tia Dom? The goddess of the sea? Forget it, heart and compass, you choose one. Lan Ze shook his head and rejected the other party's proposal.
"Can't you?" Beckett sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I want Sparrow's compass." β
"Deal!"
"Deal!"
In the strange eyes and confusion of everyone, the two reached a deal.
However, Lan Ze didn't see the haze of excitement that flashed in Gary's eyes.
