Chapter 205: Totuga
Outside Port Royal, Wren's nose shrank, the smell of the sea outside Port Royal still made Wren not very adaptable, when Wren and Romon left the original world and came to this world, the time of the original world had come to the beginning of the 21st century. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The city of the early 21st century and the city of the late 17th century are too poor in terms of urban environment and design, but after all, he has been in another world for a while, and Wren is not a pampered person, adapting is not too much of a problem for him.
"Hey, Lord Wren, it's a lucky thing to see you again......"
'Rotten drunkard' Gram seemed to tidy up his demeanor, at least his messy hair was gone, and although he had only wiped it with water, he seemed to be much more energetic.
However, as soon as Gram opened his mouth, the smell of alcohol still revealed that this old sailor who had been in Port Royal for many years was not as serious as he was at this time, at least before meeting Wren, this guy must have been able to resist taking a few sips of rum.
Raising an eyebrow, Wren waved his hand and motioned for Gram to come with him, teasing the alcoholic guy.
"Looks like you've been having a good time lately, Granke, I'm afraid you've been drinking happily on the belly of a prostitute these days!"
Gram narrowed his own eyes, and acquiesced to Wren's ridicule, after all, Wren is now his benefactor, not to mention a few words of ridicule, even if he takes off his clothes and runs naked in Port Royal, this old guy is also willing.
"Hehe, this is still thanks to your remuneration, Lord Rennes, otherwise how could I live so chic with the money I earned when I went to sea......"
Shaking his head, Wren immediately put away the smile on his face and said in a low voice.
"As well informed as you know, I have successfully purchased three ships, and now I need to match them with some sailors, and you are the only one I know who has this channel. ”
Shaking his head violently, his previously slightly drunken eyes instantly sobered up, and Gram looked around for a moment before leaning into Wren's ear and asked.
"I wonder if you recruit sailors, Lord Wren, to trade seriously, or do you need some guys with bad strength and character?"
Wren naturally knew what Gram meant, and the so-called 'guys with bad strength and character' meant those sailors who stretched out their hands well, dared to lick blood from the knife, and even advocated violence, which was commonly known as pirates.
For the recruitment of sailors, Wren naturally got Romon's instructions, and those soft merchant sailors were naturally not what Romont wanted to see, so Wren pulled out a slightly cruel smile.
"Of course it's those loose guys, I'll let them know what order is ......"
Gram's body trembled, although Wren did not show his true strength in front of him, but he was also a person who had experienced wind and waves, and he could still sense the sense of danger that Wren brought him.
There was a moment of silence in his heart for the soon-to-be-recruited pirates, and Gram quickly put the polite emotions behind him.
"For the sake of the gold, let those pirates eat!"
Walking to the harbor, Wren led Gram to a slightly remote part of the harbor, pointed to the three ships moored in the harbor and asked Gram.
"Look, how many sailors do I need to recruit for these three ships? After all, you're an expert in this area......
After thinking about it for a moment, Gram gave an answer in his heart, stretched out two thick black fingers, touched his bearded and razed his chin.
"200 of them, with two hundred sailors, can arm these three ships, and the cabins are stuffed with powder kegs and cannonballs, these three ships will definitely be worthy of the name in the Caribbean Sea by then, and I think you should give them a loud name, Lord Rennes. ”
Gram's vague sycophant only got a noncommittal smile from Wren, and he didn't care about the so-called name, for wizards who target the other world, a false name is always a false name, and it has no practical meaning.
"How's that? Can you get in touch with so many pirates?"
In response to Wren's question, Gram couldn't help frowning and muttered.
"On the port royal side, there shouldn't be many pirates willing to board the new ship......" Noticing Wren's displeased expression, Gram hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Lord Wren, although I can't recruit enough sailors in Port Royal, we can recruit qualified and sufficient sailors elsewhere, or pirate ......"
"Oh?"
Not surprisingly, Wren looked at Gram's smiling squirrel.
"Pirate City, Totuga. I know a guy who is very open over there, and it's funny that this guy happens to be an alcoholic too......"
Gram's expression suddenly became strange, and it was clear that he must have had an unusual friendship with the drunkard he was talking about.
......
The wind was fine and there was no sudden storm, and Wren and Gram boarded an armed merchant ship along the way, and the captain of the merchant ship needed to go to Totuga to sell some goods.
Obviously, the captain of this merchant ship is not very clean, and at the same time has a certain strength, you know, ordinary merchant ships should be cautious, not to mention disembarking in Totuga, even wandering in the waters near Totuga.
However, this was not a big deal for Wren, all he had to do was to arrive in Totuga, recruit 200 pirates there to serve as sailors with gold and force, and take them back to Port Royal.
Gram had been carefully talking to Wren, and from time to time he introduced the situation on Totuga's side, which made Wren not bored on the boat ride.
"Although we all secretly call Port Royal the city of pirates, Totuga is the paradise of pirates. ”
"All-you-can-drink rum, coquettish prostitutes, chaotic environments where muskets and sabers are drawn to fight without saying a word, and especially last but not least, is unacceptable to Port Royal, where there are British garrisons and they need stable order. ”
"In Totuga, as long as you have the money and can keep your money, you can buy anything you want, tsk, if it weren't for my age, I would still choose to live in Totuga instead of Port Royal, those soldiers in ridiculous uniforms are disgusting me. ”
