"If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do!" Xu Mo said lightly, "I heard that someone retreated from the battle, and spent money to kill him, and afterwards bragged in front of his companions how brave he was, and he has become a real man!" ”

"Shut up!" Blakeney blushed, "How could you have known about this, that tavern room was just me and Victoria!" ”

"Victoria? Oh, that's the Dutch beauty of that night! Tsk, poor Dutch girl, I thought I could taste the taste of a beautiful Swedish boy, but I didn't expect someone to ...... battle," Xu Mo gushed endlessly.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up!" Blakeney pounced with his teeth and claws, trying to block Xu Mo's mouth, but Xu Mo was easily pushed away.

"You, how do you know?" After failing to catch Xu Mo a few times, Blakeney finally realized that compared to the poor seafaring knowledge of the stormtrooper, his personal combat power was not something he could fight against.

"It is aristocratic etiquette to answer other people's questions before you let them answer your own questions, Blakeney...... Excellency! Xu Mo said lightly.

"Damn!" Blakeney glared at Xu Mo viciously and sharpened his teeth. After staring at each other for a long time, little Blakeney finally sat down on the floor like a deflated ball, pursed his lips, and began to answer Xu Mo's previous two questions. In Little Blakeney's explanation, Xu Mo finally understood why he was so despised by Little Blakeney before.

The 'Black Triangle Trade' in the Atlantic, also known as the slave trade, was in which European slave ships departed from their own countries to load salt, cloth, rum and other supplies, exchanged them for indigenous slaves along the Central Route through the African route, sold them to plantations cultivated by European colonists in the New World, and then exchanged them for plantation products such as sugar, tobacco and rice, and then returned to Europe through the New World Route. Between Europe, Africa, and the New World, the shipping routes roughly form a triangle shape, and because the aborigines of Africa who are trafficked are all black, it is also known as the 'black triangle trade'.

As for England's Northern Sea Route, it started from London and went north, along the coast of Norway through the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the Greenland Sea to Svalbard, and the ships that took this route were not merchant ships, but whaling ships. This vast sea is full of dangers, and there are three seasons of the year, when huge blocks of ice float down from the direction of the Arctic Ocean, and if you are not careful, you can lose your ship, and only in summer can you have a normal route.

The North Sea countries, including Sweden, have numerous whaling ships that hunt whales in this area, and over the course of a season, each whaling ship is almost completely loaded with whale oil if it is lucky. Whale oil on a whaling ship is usually worth between £10,000 and £30,000, almost as much as a Spanish colonial ship returning home on a New World route.

If the armed Swedish merchant ships disguised themselves as pirates robbed ~ the whaling ships of England and exiled their crews to the vicinity of Norway, then it would not be a few days before England learned of this on the merchant ships returning from Northern Europe. Although the Northern Sea Route is not England's main maritime interest, but because England is an island country, and the North Sea belongs to the gateway of England, it has been regarded as a forbidden country by England for generations, and it is impossible to allow pirates to rob ~ their whaling ships in this sea area.

After listening to Blakeney's narration, Xu Mo certainly understood why he despised himself, the reason was simple, the black triangle trade was one of the main reasons for the formation of the era of sea power. Not to mention the Northern Sea Route, many of the whaling ships in this area belong to Swedish ships, and it is also one of the most active areas of Viking in history. It's like a Chinese asking another Chinese person, what is the Great Wall and what is the Terracotta Army, can it not be despised?

"Now, you should tell me why you know!" Blakeney said angrily.

"Know what?" Xu Mo was immersed in thinking and didn't react for a while.

However, hearing Blakeney's white teeth gurgling and grinding, he was about to turn into a man-eating maniac, Xu Mo hurriedly said: "You have to know that the most kind people in general, that is, the most obscene people, the most romantic people, and the most gossipy people. In particular, the first night experience of a fourteen-year-old boy is enough to make some people let go of their desire to hunt for beauty, turn into thieves, and eavesdrop on the corners of their companions! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Mo unfolded his body, opened the door and went out as soon as he slipped through the smoke, leaving Blakeney alone. At this time, being in the same room with Blakeney is too dangerous, although his strength is very strong, but it is not fun to be bitten by the little tyrannosaurus rex desperately.

"Charlie John Lochevfer!" Half an hour later, the sonorous words coming from Xu Mo's room were as cold and piercing as the cold wind howling over the Arctic Ocean.

"Yawn!" Charlie, who was holding a certain Dutch beauty in the tavern, couldn't help but sneeze, feeling an inexplicable chill coming from his body, and couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart, "Got a cold?" ”

In the large hotel where Xu Mo lived, all the officers on the Vestelos were gathered, and several hotels not far from it were the residence of the sailors. However, at present, there are few people in the hotel who remain in their rooms, and most of them have left.

Xu Mo had just run out of his room and unexpectedly met Dinah at the top of the stairs. Dinah looked at Xu Mo with a smile, and said leisurely: "Why can't you help it, do you finally want to learn from Charlie and find a Dutch beauty to solve the physiological problem?" ”

"I'm hiding from the Tyrannosaurus!" Xu Mo pulled Dinah into her room and cautiously looked outside the room, then closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hahaha! Little Blakeney is so cute! After listening to Xu Mo's narration, Dinah laughed heartily without any ladylike image, laughing so much that tears came out.

"Alright, stop laughing, be careful that he hears!" Xu Mo hurriedly covered Dinah's mouth, "By the way, have Selena and Yahan made any moves in the past few days?" ”

"No, they're quiet, but the two don't seem to be muttering together lately." Dinah said strangely, "Boss, why didn't you deal with Arham the last time you acted, did you want to pry their corners?" ”

"Even if Selena and Ahan have a competitive relationship, their corners are not easy to pry, not to mention that I will not lower the criteria for selecting team members, no matter how strong Ahan's ability is, if you want to join our team, you must pass my test first!" Xu Mo said lightly.

Immediately, a strange smile appeared on Xu Mo's face, "What's more, who said that I didn't make a move on Ahan in the last operation?" Sometimes it's not killing people that is the only solution. ”
