v2 Chapter 253: Take a walk (1/2)

Zhang Heng didn't expect that there would be an extra person on board when Jackdaw returned, and he looked at Billy aside.

The latter shrugged. ”It wasn't my idea. It was her return.”

Leah politely carried her luggage, ”Can you keep me? I can do a lot of things.”

”It can be, but why don't you stay with your tribal people? Did you manage to escape from that manor for the sake of living a free life?”

”I ... I respect Laeri. He united us in the most difficult moments and led us out of miserable lives. He was a greater chief than his father, but in some things, I and his views There are differences, and I don't feel that the way out for me and my compatriots is on those deserted islands. ”

”Huh?” Zhang Heng raised an eyebrow.

”We may be able to live a peaceful life on that island, but sooner or later those slave dealers will find us again, just like in my hometown, they will still kill the old and weak. People, brothers and sisters, mother and child, if we can't find a real way out, these things will happen again and again until all black people become slaves. ”

Zhang Heng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Elijah's age and insight could say such things. Although it is still limited by the times, in a sense, she has seen farther than La'errie. Zhang Heng asked, ”Where do you think the way out?”

”I don't know,” Leah shook her head. ”I'm still looking, but what I'm good at is not useful on a desert island, so I want to stay here, stay in the civilized world, and play my own role. . ”

”This is not a civilized world, and my crew has basically recruited. You are not a sailor, but a woman ...” Zhang Heng thought for a while and asked Karina on the other side, ”Are you still short of people? ”

The business woman nodded, and said to the black girl, ”I heard that you can read. I happened to open a grocery store in Boston. Go there and help me with my billing. I will provide you with room and board. For a month, wait until the business is back, and raise your salary as appropriate. ”

Leah heard a smile on her face.

After setting up a good black girl, the business woman continued the topics that she hadn't finished before, and she briefly talked to Zhang Heng about several separate meetings with Raymond before, as well as the current agreement reached by the two, and then said, ”Can you and me Going for a walk? ”

Zhang Heng nodded, and Karina walked out of the house and came to Tian Ling.

Today's weather is good, the sun is bright, and the sea breeze is very suitable for walking. Karina has no clear direction, so she just found a direction and went on. The business woman did not speak along the way. Zhang Heng Also kept silent.

This is not because there is nothing to say between the two, it is just that they are enjoying this rare peace, and now three weeks have passed since the riots at Terence Manor, and many things have happened in these three weeks However, so far, the situation has basically stabilized and Malcolm's defeat has been settled.

The latter was also refreshing, and immediately began to sell his various assets on the island, while the other side, without the strong execution power of Malcolm, the elderly Raymond was unable to maintain the operation of the Black Merchants Union. Although no official statement has been issued, everyone knows that the dissolution of the black business alliance is inevitable.

Soon the power of the black market merchants on the island will usher in a big shuffle and return to the previous fierce competition. In the recent period, the black market merchants in Nassau have begun to move, contacting the previously cooperated pirate ships to find new Partner to spy on others' offers.

For some people this means a loss of income, but for others it also means opportunity.
