v2 Chapter 148： Tamsui Island (2/2)

After knowing the truth, the island, which was originally unpopulated, became even more barren.

Zhang Heng let the Jackdaw anchor down not far from the island, and he took four people, including Annie and Billy, to the island in a row boat.

Everyone jumped off the stranded boat and walked on the soft sand to the coconut trees. Zhang Heng soon found traces of human activity nearby. He didn't go any further and blew his whistle as agreed. Soon after, A figure came out of the woods.

When Zhang Heng saw someone coming, he was also a bit surprised. At first, he and Karina agreed that the latter would send a hand to bring the news over, but did not expect that it was the businesswoman himself.

The latter looks a little embarrassed. She may have been living on the island for a day or two. Although the ship that sent her left her with enough food and water, a woman can live alone in this environment. It has been a great thing for a long time. UU Reading Books

Karina was also very excited to see Zhang Heng, because the transport ship that brought her here had already returned to Nassau. Considering that it was not a popular route, in other words, if Zhang Heng could not pick her up, she might even Die here.

The business woman murmured, ”I found out according to your request. There is a boat you should be interested in. It set sail from North Carolina half a month ago. The boat was full of spices.”

”spices?”

”Yes, it's nutmegs from the Spice Islands. That ship appeared in a colony in the New World by accident. They were planning to return to Europe. I heard that in London, the value of this thing was almost comparable to gold.”

”How far are we from that ship now?” Zhang Heng asked immediately.

”I asked the captain of my transport ship, and he said that depending on the speed of your ship, it may take more than ten days to catch up with their wind.”

”Let's get on board.” Zhang Heng didn't make nonsense and took the lead towards the boat on the beach.

And Billy was immersed in the news that shocked him so much that he still doesn't know what is going on in the scene right now.

It wasn't until the six of them got into the boat that Zhang Heng explained, ”I asked Miss Karina for a favor, and let her use her relationship in Boston to help me inquire about any prey on this route that is worth our shot.”

”But ... but she's not Nassau?” Billy opened his mouth wide.

”She returned to Boston as soon as we finished talking that day. I chose this as the connection point because it is the uninhabited island closest to Boston on our route, but I have to admit Miss Karina's efficiency It's really amazing. The time I left for her is very tight. She can come here so quickly that she has stayed in Boston for less than a day. ”
