Chapter 845: Bitter Meat Scheme

"Master, let me go......" came the voice of a dark figure crouching in the corner......

Everyone looked back and saw that it was the indigenous warrior Sarika, and it would be great if he could deliver the message. But how do you get him to deliver the message? This is not land, and even though Sarica is very good at stealing, it is not so easy to enter the other party's sealed cabin. If you are caught and expose the jihua of Zhang Fan's team, it will be troublesome.

"Bitter Meat Trick!" Akon sneered, "That's easy to do, let him accidentally annoy me, and then we'll beat Sarica away!" He turned back to Sarica and said, "For the sake of your fellow countryman, you can bear with it......"

…………

Early the next morning......

"You! How dare you break the Baron's favorite jewel box! You filthy gorilla! Do you want to steal the Baron's gem?! Akon cursed out of breath as he hit Sarica with his head and fell on the deck with his stick. It looks like he's in a rage, and he's been beating this guy for a long time!

Sarica was covered in wounds, but he didn't dare to fight back, and the other native sailors on the side were also trembling, not daring to step forward! This scene seemed to Drake in the helm tower to be very accustomed, these black slaves were just wild and untamable beasts in his eyes, and they needed to be taught a good lesson to be able to restrain their wildness!

Drake chunched on tobacco leaves and laughed "hehe". However, after the native, who was beaten by Akon, passed out with a scream, he muttered, "It's a pity that it's a good piece of material...... These slaves are much better than the paid ones, and they are obedient and capable. It's okay to beat up and get angry, and it's not so much trouble! ”

Akon kicked Sarica and shouted at the other natives waving his bloodied stick, "This is what offends Lord Baron!" You barbarian fellows, work hard for Lao Tzu, otherwise it will end up like him! Do not take the mercy of the Baron as a blessing to you! You must be afraid of the Baron! He is your God! Your lives! All of you! You must worship Him unconditionally! Serve him! ”

Then he turned back to Drake in the helm tower and shouted, "Captain Drake, leave this nasty creature to you, Lord Baron never wants to see him again!" ”

Drake pinched the brim of his hat and smiled: "Then stuff him into those black slaves, don't waste it, transport it to the Caribbean, and exchange it for some gold pounds." As I said, these filthy barbarians are the ones who need a lesson! Your Excellency the Baron is just too merciful......"

"Whatever you want......" Akon angrily threw his stick and kicked the silent Sarica twice before scolding and scolding and slipped into the cabin.

Drake shook his head helplessly, called out to a white sailor, and asked a few men to carry Sarica to the dinghy and to Hawkins' ship loaded with black slaves. It was also on this day that the Hawkins fleet reached the coast of West Africa, in the area of modern Senegal. Hawkins and Drake set foot on the continent with great joy......

Hawkins, who has come to this continent for the third time to engage in the trade of black slaves, is naturally familiar with the way, and the contact with the local tribal chiefs is very smooth. Dozens of slaves joined the Hawkins slave herd in exchange for salt and cheap industrial goods. With such a smooth exchange to the first batch of black slaves, Hawkins looked forward to the prospects of this trip to the African continent.

Without the addition of Zhang Fan's team, everything would be as beautiful as Hawkins' vision. Because with the arrival of this group of black slaves, Hawkins got very bad news, and the ship carrying the black slaves suddenly showed signs of scurvy. This is a terrible thing for ocean-going sailors.

But this bad thing was quickly resolved. Because the mysterious dragon slaying hero of the East, the baron of England for life, is actually a very good doctor. Under the rejuvenation of his skillful hand, the sailor who had scured scurvy quickly recovered. This made Hawkins very grateful, and he felt that he owed the talkative baron a great favor.

Thinking that trade on the African continent was cumbersome, Hawkins quickly forgot about it. The slave trader had to meet the local chiefs every day, not all of whom were greedy people who had no regard for the interests of their own people. On the contrary, most of the tribal leaders were very responsible, and they were only willing to exchange local specialties for their own labor and warriors.

Hawkins hated responsibility, and he wondered if he should use a little force to punish these ignorant indigenous tribal leaders. Let them obediently accept their offers.

"I don't think it's necessary yet, and if we get to the Ivory Gold Coast and haven't harvested yet, it's not too late to think about force. Now is our first stop, and there are many African tribal leaders waiting for us to trade. If we use force now, the clan leaders behind me will probably not dare to trade with us. You know, on this continent, bad news can be blown to distant places......" Drake proposed very cautiously.

"One more thing, I want to select some clever fellows from the black slaves to be trained, like a circus teaching monkeys tricks and learning the basics of navigation. You know, the black slaves you get in Cape Verde are born sailors, and they are not as water-ignorant as the black slaves on the mainland......" Drake came up with a bold idea.

"These filthy barbarians are born robbers and thieves, aren't you afraid that they will rebel?" Hawkins asked rhetorically, shamelessly. These real robbers always take it for granted that they rob others.

Drake said proudly, "I personally trained a group of black slave sailors from that baron, and they are very good. It's so much better than the vampires we brought in from Plymouth Harbour! Those guys only know how to drink, and they can't do anything! You think, cheap sailors who don't have to pay their wages don't have to be reminded by rum that it's time to work! They rarely eat steak and only need a little pig food to be able to work hard for you. Even if they beat them hard, they didn't dare to resist. ”

"As long as we don't teach them how to use muskets, these guys will just work! We just need to hire a group to be ruthless. Trustworthy guys just keep an eye on them! This kind of person is a pirate in Plymouth Harbour, and he catches a lot of them! Truth be told, these black slaves are much more loyal than those pirate sailors if you treat them a little better. The black slaves under Baron Shi Fan all regarded him as a god! Hehe, I'm going to say this guy really has a ...... in this area."

When Hawkins heard about sailors who didn't need to spend money, his heart was already moved, "You're right, but those sailors who have followed us for many years and are loyal are still very useful." You can do this, in this case, I am afraid that the number of black slaves we can sell this time will be less. But if what you said is true, it can save us a lot of gold pounds......"

…………

In the cabin of the 'Holy China Ark', Akon Daxiao said: "This sudden sepsis has helped us a lot!" Uh, I don't know what's going on over there in Sarika......"

…………

"Do you really think those Orientals will help us?" A strong black man with a strange tattoo on his face asked.

Sarika fell to her knees on one knee and swore an oath over her heart: "The gods of Rada are above, and they are the true Roko (elves of herbs). Perform a sacrifice and herbal folk remedies, a festival and the guardian of the temple. The god Rada sent to rescue us our good Voodoo (Voodoo elves). We can trust them. They are different from those white devils! Sarica swears by the name of her ancestors! ”

The strong black man with a tattooed face nodded solemnly, "Sarika is a warrior blessed by the god Rada, I can believe your words." I will find a way with the priests to spread the terrible plague on these brothers...... Are you sure those Orientals can heal them? Know that once we summon the Demon Hand, there is no way to get rid of it! ”

"Those magical Orientals have the ability to drive away the hands of demons, I have seen it with my own eyes!" Sarica nodded earnestly.

The strong, tattooed man, who was silent for a while, said to a thin black indigenous man beside him, "Are you willing to sacrifice your life for everyone?" In return, your mom and brother will never starve......"

The thin black man immediately knelt down, "It is my glory to give my life for the messenger of the Rada God!" ”

The strong tattooed man silently stroked his head and muttered, "I'm afraid you're going to be in a lot of pain......"

Sarica looked away, he knew that this summoning ritual would be very bloody, as they had used this plague-summoning ritual to curse their opponents. It must be sacrificed to the living. In the tribe can also use captives as a bloody medium for rituals, here only their own people are sacrificed. And they don't have any weapons or knives now, which means that the wizard must tear the emaciated brother alive with his hands and take his entrails out in front of the eyes of his owner, and the brother can't shout out loud to get the attention of the detainers......

…………

The fleet traveled south along the coastline of West Africa, stopping at each simple anchorage to find the local tribes, to meet with the chieftains, and to exchange cheap industrial goods for slaves or goods. Although the ships of Zhang Fan's team also followed everyone, under the strict review of the book demon, the transaction volume was very small each time, and they were only exchanged for gold and gemstone goods......

"It's a long way from the Ivory Coast and the Gold Coast, and there's going to be a lot of gems, ivory and gold there, and we're not in a hurry right now." The book demon drank tea and said unhurriedly.
