Chapter 157: Taiman earns money, Taiman spends

The Grand Fleet acted together, far less fast than the [Golden Deer] itself.

It wasn't until another three days on the east-west route that the privateer finally returned to the Tayman Islands.

During this time, there were many fewer sailors in the privateer fleet, who had just mixed up with each other's familiar faces.

It's just that no one notices that anything is wrong.

Because there was only one cause of their death, all of them died because they accidentally fell into the water when they got up at night.

It's just an accident.

No one knew that Byron's [Wild Hunting Legion] was almost full of 100 people.

When he activates the logbook [Echoes of History], it is equivalent to calling up all the historical records of an object or a person from childhood to adulthood.

Naturally, dissidents, spies, instability in nature, evil in nature, and so on were all swept away.

Not only those die-hard henchmen of [Hook], but even all the unknown people he mixed in when recruiting sailors were all swept away.

Byron also had many gentler and safer ways to purify the ranks.

But he really has too many secrets on him, he doesn't dare to take any risks at all, and he doesn't have so much time to waste.

Anyway, everyone in the fleet has already signed the [Ten Commandments of Pirates], the ninth commandment: death to the betrayer.

Whether or not they had been overboard, Captain Byron had not broken the commandments.

To put it bluntly, they also died by accident (suicide).

What is more important is that, in accordance with Byron's consistent principle of "instant incentives", the routine distribution of spoils has already been completed simultaneously in these three days.

Even if a dozen or so teams joined them in sacking the city of Tlaxcopan, the main goal of the Hattings Expeditionary Force was not gold and silver, but the blood of transmutation.

The proceeds of the public robbery of the Pioneer Pilot Colonial Company also exceeded 580,000 pounds!

Sixty-five per cent of that was divided between the nearly two thousand crew members and the natives of Chichen Itza, and an average of more than £200 per person.

That was the total income of a farmer in the Old World who did not eat or drink, and worked hard for twenty years.

The gold coin was dazzling, and in the face of a small accident, not only was no one questioned, but everyone sang the praises of his justice and generosity as a captain.

Even the darker ones feel that with a few dozen fewer people, they can get an extra share, which is really good.

"The ships disembarked and lined up in battleships."

Sixteen privateers sailed into the urgently expanded harbor under the leadership of the Golden Deer, and successively reeled their sails and lowered anchor.

Afterwards, the marines, the natives of Chichen Itza, and sixteen sailors on ships, nearly 2,000 men, disembarked and lined up in the renovated port of Georgetown.

Many people couldn't help but crane their necks and look at the town on the shore.

"Is this our new location?

Really clean and nice view. If you retire in the future, it might be a good idea to settle on this island. ”

"It's really different from other places.

Most outsiders come to the Bantaan Islands with a complete vote-and-go mentality, and hardly ever think about bothering to build a territory.

In particular, the Kingdom of Castile serves as a typical representative.

They developed the sugar industry for decades, cultivated sugar cane on the islands, and destroyed much of the land because of their unsparing efforts.

Our Pioneer Pilot Colony Company is different, and it seems that it wants to completely move the territory of the Old World here. ”

"I heard that Captain Byron is already the governor of this Greenville county.

Wouldn't the next step be to explore the island of Yucatan and help the beautiful countess establish an independent kingdom? ”

The pirates and natives all looked at the town with some eagerness.

A few wide streets paved with gravel that can accommodate four horse-drawn carriages in parallel make the town look exceptionally clean and tidy by the topography.

Not only can you not see the excrement and dirt that can be found everywhere in other places, but the roadside is also planted with extraordinarily lush teak trees that act as street trees.

The town is well planned with a well-planned building system, the governor's palace in the center of the town, fountain squares, banks, commercial houses, bazaars, townhouses, garden villas

Up to the docks are the lighthouse, large warehouses, bars, inns, blacksmiths, wineries, and docks.

On the other side of the hill beyond the town, the foundations of a castle built to bastion standards have begun to be laid.

Not only the original townspeople, but also many indigenous slaves from various tribes of the eastern islands were also busy here.

When completed, it will be a horn to the town.

The old fur seals who have attacked coastal cities know that as long as enough artillery is placed in the fortress, and a [fortress expert] is arranged to guard the fortress sequence "not an inch of land".

With the firepower configuration of the battleships of the Bantaan Islands, which is no more than a nominal battleship of the fourth rank, it is impossible for it to be attacked from the outside.

Nearly two months have passed since Byron and Catherine took over the territory.

The originally very dilapidated town has long since changed greatly with the continuous supply of funds and human resources.

The pirates in the privateer fleet saw it and became more confident in their own power.

Heroic, patterned, and rich!

Even the royal colony of Jamestown is not as vibrant as the Taiman Islands.

Why did those kings and nobles like to build wonders, build luxury carriages, and buy luxury goods?

These are all direct manifestations of a leader's strength.

For pirates who don't know a few big characters and only have wealth in their eyes, this simple and direct stimulus is especially appealing to their appetite.

Many of the pirates in the group buzzed when they saw their new station, eagerly discussing all things Tayman.

"Ahem!"

While the pirate general "Bill" disappeared as usual, Byron stood in front of everyone and coughed lightly twice and gave his own order:

"Right now, the [Tarsal God] and the [Funeral Bird's Beak Plague Doctor] are still roaming around, and the smallpox virus is everywhere outside.

Even a quarter mortality rate is no joke for us.

All of them spent 10 days in the Taiman Islands as a group, practicing every morning, learning to read and write, and practicing swordsmanship, and spent the rest of the time freely.

However, rest assured, Georgetown Harbor has an abundant supply of drinks and food.

And according to the colonial co-construction agreement, the 'Song of the Nightingale' owned by the Newman family in the royal colony has opened a branch in the port.

During this time, everyone recuperated and soon we had a lot of hard battles to fight. ”

Byron didn't directly ban all places of sound and sex with a wave of his hand.

He knows that any idealistic policy that does not adapt to the times will only be slapped ashore by the torrent of the times.

Even those rogue warblers will not understand his actions, let alone appreciate him, and even the privateer group will be in turmoil, pure thankless.

Of course, the approval of the establishment of "Song of the Nightingale" had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he did not receive any taxes from the sheep.

"Yes, Captain."

"Roar, long live the captain!"

They had been in the jungle for more than half a month, and when they came back, they received a huge sum of money, and they were ready to swing guns and clubs on land and spend a lot of money.

With a warm bed, delicious food, sweet fresh beer, and fragrant beauties, life is complete in no time.

"The Lighthouse Weekly says that the hapless ghosts who escaped from the Intraterress have all been cursed by the 'living dead'.

I can't even enjoy the wine and the beautiful woman, and I have no hope for the rest of my life. ”

"yes, thankfully we didn't go.

If only a few more days of life and death would have been able to lift the curse of the living dead for them if someone said they could lift the curse of the living dead.

Even if it is selling their souls, there are many people who are willing to do it, right? ”

However.

Before they could carry their money bags, they rushed into the small town of Georgetown, which was beginning to take shape.

I ran into a large group of clerks of the Doge's Mansion under Catherine's leadership, as well as men from various industries under her name.

They held colorful billboards and delivered the most intimate service to a group of pirates.

"Gentlemen, would you like to know more about the deposit business of Pioneer Bank?

We don't need any hosting fees here.

The public funds of the privateer fleet, as well as the savings and private money of Admiral Bill and Captain Byron, were managed by Miss Catherine, the treasurer and bank manager. ”

As soon as they heard their propaganda, even a lot of pirates greeted them.

"I'm going to the bank to do business.

The money I got from the last distribution was deposited in the Pioneer Bank, and His Excellency Captain's choice was one word: insurance. ”

"Is it really insurance?"

"Insurance, why not? We open a bank, can we still trick you? ”

"There is such a good thing. I'm going to make a deposit too! ”

"I Exist"

After a while, the bank clerks who worked on the spot were surrounded by dazzling gold.

Of course, Mr. Byron dared to vouch for his own discipline, and there was no childcare he had arranged, absolutely not.

After they have passed through the bank, they are not finished.

A few more clerks stood on the side of the road, brandishing inferior books with extremely coarse bindings, and shouting:

"Limited time discount, in-house teaching materials for the 721 Captain Fission mode, you can be self-taught even if you take your captain with limited energy.

Not thirty or forty gold pounds, nor twenty or ten pounds.

Only 998 bronze folls!

You heard it right, the unit is Copperfur.

The hand is fast, and there is slow. ”

One gold pound is equal to 20 silver nauts, and one silver nat is equal to 15 copper folls, and one copper ver can buy a standard weight of ver bread.

This shoddy book, which doesn't have a few pages in total, costs more than 3 pounds, which is equivalent to half a year's salary for a farmer, black, really black.

But there are so many people who buy it!

Who wouldn't want to be a transcendent captain?

And didn't you hear people say that this is an internal top-secret textbook, a limited-time discount?

If this time limit is exceeded, what should I do if the price increases?

There is a good saying, you can't save education if you save food and drink, this is an opportunity to change your fate.

Then there was the blacksmith shop, which doubled as an arms dealer, and a pile of wooden boxes was placed on the docks.

"Gentlemen, to celebrate the return of the privateer fleet once again, we are now offering weapon blind boxes in our shop.

What can be fired once a pound depends on luck, fine swords, crossbows, flintlock short muskets

There's even research notes and advanced materials from the [Gunner] Expert.

To grab is to earn, limited to 200 per day, until sold out. ”

Artillery has always been a technical position, and when it comes to distributing spoils, they take as much as officers.

Seeing this, the pirates immediately swarmed again.

"We also have co-branded coupons from seven or eight merchants of the Old Captain's Tavern, Song of the Nightingale, and the Oak Inn, and enjoy group purchase discounts"

"Bring me one."

"The Governor's Mansion has to give us benefits even if it makes less money, what a good person."

"Conscience, the merchants here are too conscientious."

It has nothing to do with whether the temperament is cunning and ferocious, a group of uninformed country pirates have suffered losses from being uneducated.

Where has it experienced this level of marketing bombardment?

Before he walked into the town, the fat money bags on his waist that had been obtained from the spoils had visibly dried up.

It's like being robbed by a group of murderous pirates.

Robbery?

Look at what this said, how can robbery come with money quickly.

The main thing is that Taiman earns money, Taiman spends, and wants to take it home!

And that's it, the pirates also want to sincerely say "thank you" to Miss Catherine, the [Mithril Dragon] who provided all these "discounts".

Not only them, but Byron, who clutched the [snakeskin bag] on his waist and wanted to avoid someone's sight, couldn't escape.

Soon he was forcibly dragged into her boudoir by her own sister.
