People in the heavens are as rich as the enemies of the country
Chapter 17 It’s time to leave Novice Village
"How many ships do we have now?"
"Thirty-four ships." Warrant Officer Tom followed Tang Sen step by step and whispered: "There are eight large sailing ships and the others are small sailing ships. In the face of a price tag that exceeds 30% of the market price, those captains are happy to lose a few With the freedom of heaven, I placed them in a remote place in the town where no one could inform them."
"Not bad." Tang Sen did not hesitate to praise him and said, "In just a few days, you were able to buy so many merchant ships without letting anyone know about it. I am very satisfied."
"I don't dare to take credit. Without Mr. Tang's financial resources, I wouldn't be able to do this kind of thing." Tom said modestly.
"Where are the supplies? Are they all ready?"
"Each ship has prepared supplies for three months when fully loaded, including salt pork, cheese, flour, and rum. Most of them come from Port Royal, and a small part is purchased from merchant ships." Tom said: "The main thing is The number is too large. If there are any more, the movement will be too loud and people will notice it.”
"Three months?" Tang Sen pondered for a moment: "That's enough. How is the situation at the Naval Fortress?"
"Under the gold coin offensive, Captain Morgan, who manages the armory, has already handed over the certificate of surrender and proved his loyalty to Mr. Tang. The ordnance can be shipped out at any time. As for the grassroots soldiers, because of the rotation in the past few days, everyone has no regard for Tang. The gentlemen were all very respectful, but there were so many people and I was worried that the news would be revealed, so I did not negotiate with them."
"You did the right thing." Tang Sen said: "There is no need to worry about the grassroots soldiers. This kind of thing needs to happen naturally. I just need to ensure that their guns will not be pointed at me."
"Finally, have you made arrangements for tonight?"
"I have already contacted the maid named Jillian." At this point, Tom hesitated: "Mr. Tang, I don't think such a person can do anything well. She is as timid as a mouse and can't do anything well." Disguise, if something unexpected happens, it may ruin Mr. Tang’s affairs.”
"Why don't you let me take action? I can take out what Mr. Tang wants without anyone noticing."
"Tom, are you questioning my decision?" Tang Sen said calmly.
"I'm sorry!" Tom quickly lowered his head: "I definitely didn't question Mr. Tang's intention. I just wanted to better complete what Mr. Tang told me."
Tang Sen glanced at him and then explained: "You can't do this, she must do it."
"There is an old saying in the East that everything is worth its weight in gold. The closer we get to the end, the more cautious we must be. We must not expose any clues that would allow Governor Swan to associate the matter with us, lest we fall short of the success."
"Do your job, tomorrow will be a great day."
After talking about the matter, Tang Sen and Tom parted ways and returned to the Governor's residence. Governor Swan came out with a glowing face. Before he could get closer, he loudly said: "Mr. Tang, I have prepared the clothes for you to attend the promotion ceremony tomorrow." , come and see if you are satisfied with it.”
"Governor Swan seems more anxious than me." Townsend joked: "Could it be that he can't wait to let me go?"
"How is it possible? Mr. Tang is joking." Governor Swan laughed and said: "I wish Mr. Tang could stay in Port Royal forever. With Mr. Tang in Port Royal, the development of Port Royal is simply rapid. You don't know, because As soon as you did it at the dock, many businessmen were waving their money to buy shops in Port Royal, and the town had to start expanding again."
"I didn't understand what Mr. Tang wanted to do before, but now that I think about it, Mr. Tang has given me a big gift!"
"As long as Mr. Swan is satisfied." Tang Sen said: "There will be a big gift tomorrow. I hope Mr. Swan will not be too surprised by then."
"Then I have to look forward to it."
The two of them chatted and ate as usual until Tang Sen returned to the room. The day was as uneventful as the previous few days.
But Tang Sen stood in front of the window, looking at Port Royal in the night, but he couldn't fall asleep.
This is the last calm before the plot begins.
During these few days in Port Royal, all he faced was the peaceful side of the world. Relying on his endless money bag, he seemed to be able to do anything, but he knew very well that this was just an illusion.
I was only in the Novice Village and had not been exposed to the weird and terrifying side of this world at all. But when I really faced those things, the role of money was better than nothing.
It is impossible for a mortal to try to obtain the heart of Davy Jones, and it can even be said that the possibility is extremely slim.
But Tang Sen had made all the preparations he could think of.
"Whether you live or die, it all depends on this."
Forcibly driving away the anxiety in his heart, Tang Sen withdrew his gaze and kept reviewing his plan in his mind.
"Step One, Jack Sparrow's Compass."
"The second step is the stone box of Aztec gold coins."
"Step Three, the Heart of Davy Jones."
"If nothing else happens, the first step will be successfully completed by tomorrow."
Tang Sen was awakened by a violent knock on the door.
I looked up and looked out the window. The sky was just bright and the entire Port Royal was shrouded in a thin mist.
"What happened?" Tang Sen put on his coat and opened the door. Outside was the governor's butler. This man who usually maintained an elegant demeanor looked anxious at this time.
"Mr. Tang, I'm sorry to wake you up." He spoke quickly: "Please check your belongings. Miss Swan's room was stolen. She was awakened by a nightmare and found that the room was in a mess. Damn it, there were actually The thief is so audacious as to reach into the Governor's Castle."
"Huh?" Tang Sen showed a surprised expression: "I remember that the Governor's Mansion is protected by night patrols, right? How could such a thing happen?"
He paused and asked, "Is Miss Swan okay?"
"That damn thief didn't hurt Miss Swan. He just took away all the jewelry and property in the room." The housekeeper said angrily: "It's not clear yet. I suspect there is a thief. The Governor is very angry and is investigating. All servants and guards.”
"Take me to see." Tang Sen quickly put on his clothes and followed the housekeeper down the stairs. He saw all the servants and guards lined up in the living room. Governor Swan, contrary to his usual decent posture, only wore a silk suit. Pajamas, and even forgot to wear a wig, exposing the somewhat bald head.
It can be seen that he is so angry that he no longer cares about his image.
Townsend can understand him.
After all, no one can accept that his most beloved daughter was attacked at night.
