Chapter 106： Black sail articles (11) (1/2)
In the early morning, the pirates in the sailor's warehouse were washing and noisy, and suddenly someone rushed down from the deck, ”See the land! We are home!”
The crowd of pirates burst into cheers and ran towards the deck.
Zhang Heng and Malvin were also taken out of the cabin between the crowd. When they came to the bow, they also saw the distant harbor. During this time, they had heard the sailors on the ship more than once. To this place.
They praise it, curse it, praise it, and spur it, but there is no doubt that everyone cannot do without it.
This is Nassau, the capital of later Panama, located on the island of New Providence, the northernmost part of the western Indian Ocean. It has the finest harbour in the Bahamas. For fishing and hunting, Columbus discovered it in 1492, and then in 1647, the first European immigrants set foot on the land and set up a settlement.
”You will fall in love with this place. If you love freedom and adventure, it will be difficult to resist its charm.” Derwin introduced to them, ”This was once a Spanish colony and later changed hands to Britain.”
”What now?” The farmer's son wondered.
现在 ”Now, it belongs to us.” Goodwin showed a white tooth. ”Welcome to Nassau, the home of the pirates, the land of freedom.”
The merchant ship sailed into the bay with the Sea Lion. The pirates happily put the small wooden boat into the water, and then they can't wait to row to the shore. Everyone was stunned for more than a month when they went out to sea. In addition to the release, all the people in charge rushed out of the boat.
Difraina ordered more than a dozen people, including Zhang Heng, and began to unload. Malvin's expression was a little nervous, and he couldn't help but look in the direction of the kitchen until the old pirate patted his back. ” Don't worry about the wooden barrel, wait for you to finish the things at hand, come to the tavern for me. ”After that, he also took the boat.
Zhang Heng and the son of the farmer did not move all the goods to the onshore exchange until the afternoon. The person in charge of the inventory did not enter the kitchen. At the end, Malvin went back to see and found the smoked fish in it. The barrel was gone.
Difraina called two people, ”This robbery is logically without your share, but it is certainly not good for you to disembark with such a penny.” He took out a purse, ”There are 50 silver here. The peso is an advance for you. It should be enough for you to live on the shore these days. If you want to make money, you can find some work in the town, but do n’t sign a long-term contract. Someone will notify you before you go to sea next time. ”
Thanks to Difraina Zhang Heng and Malvin for leaving the exchange, but the latter didn't go out long before they sullenly asked for money.
Zhang Heng knew what he was working on. On the way before the two came here, the son of the farmer was always stealing sight of the ships parked on the wharf. Nassau is very close to the American colony. It won't take long to get to New York from here Boston, being a young master on his own farm, no matter how you look at it, is more promising than cooking on a pirate ship.
However, Zhang Heng knew that he could not run away. If those pirates could not even prevent such things, then they would not be so relieved to let the two off the boat, but Zhang Heng did not remind Malvin what he saw. At this point, he agreed happily. The two sides split the money and each got 25 silver pesos.
Malvin obviously did not want to fulfill the agreement with the old pirates. When he saw the silver coins falling out of the bag, with the ticket money, he hurried to the dock.
