Chapter 71 Preparation

Drake found that his words could not only convince the other party but also himself. Seeing that the strong woman in front of him was about to be impressed, he decided to add fuel to the fire.

"Finally, let me tell you the truth about this arms trade with the Kingdom of Leif. Although the kingdom does not expressly support it, they will acquiesce in this action. We don't even need to go to Kahn Island for transit. The navy and customs have

Act as if you can’t see it.”

This point moved Santia, and she finally gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

"Then have a good time cooperating. This business of yours will consume almost all the weapons in stock in the Kelange region. If there is a war, the kingdom's reserve forces can only fight with shotguns and wooden clubs."

Drake didn't care and said: "Bruguet is an island country originally. Our energy is on the navy. If a powerful country can land on our land, we can only say that if the navy known as the strongest in the Western Hemisphere is defeated, then we will not

What reason is there to continue fighting?”

Santia said half-jokingly: "You sound like someone from the navy."

"We and the Royal Navy are originally the same type of people. We all rely on cannons and sabers to fight for ourselves at sea. It's just that they are legal pirates recognized by the Kingdom. We are just the underground navy. A hundred years ago,

We might even be able to get a plundering license granted by the king himself, and then we can hang the navy flag together with the skull and crossbones flag."

What Drake said is true. When the Western Continent opened up new routes a hundred years ago, many pirates were recruited, and the major kingdoms even let their regular navies occasionally play the role of pirates.

"Maybe, but I appreciate the name Pirate King more than Pirate Commodore. Please drink coffee, please."

At the same time, the Northern Route from Dunland to Bruguet docked at the pier of Eggsburg, and Jacob, who was dressed in an ill-fitting formal suit, was walking down the gangway.

Looking at the steam freighters emitting black smoke all over the port, and the towering cranes transporting the goods on the ship to the conveyor belt, Jacob had to sigh: "This is a big city, Les and this country known as the North Sea

The Pearl Eggsburg is too small in comparison. By the way, the address is there."

I checked the pockets of my clothes and found that this suit belonged to Martin. I didn't have the money to customize a decent suit of clothes, so I borrowed it this time because I had the opportunity to go on a business trip.

After digging out the address in his pocket, Jacob decided to take a public carriage to the district called Pride. Firstly, he could see what the public carriage looked like. Secondly, the funds given by Martin were limited. It was said that this

Prices in the city are higher than in the capital of Dunland. I don’t want to be squeezed into a third-class cabin when I go back. It’s already very difficult in the second-class cabin without a separate bathroom. I want to go back to a third-class cabin where several people can get into and out of bed. Jacob

Bu would rather swim back.

After asking about the public carriage stop at the port in the broken Western Continental Common Language, Jacob found the exchanged Bruguet currency, which was a one-pound note. He felt the raised pattern on it and felt it.

There was a special dark green color-changing ink. Jacob had to sigh that it was more sophisticated than the mark in his own country. He even heard that this encrypted currency was almost counterfeited, leaving Dunland with only metal foreign currency for a period of time.

, refused to accept banknotes.

The weather in February has begun to get warmer. Annick was crowded on a public carriage on the way to work. People around him had changed from thick cotton coats to light woolen coats. The guy in front of him was a little strange. The clothes on his body seemed too big.

On the 1st, after getting in the car, I kept looking at the surrounding scenery through the window, and then some words that I couldn't understand came out.

Foreign? It sounds very special, the accent is very crisp, the mouth is tense when pronouncing it, and the mouth needs to be in a state of tension at all times. This is from Dunland, right. Indeed, there are many people who work as mechanics in Bruguet. I hope the Church of Justice will work hard to popularize science.

Given by basic education. Among the countries in the Western Continent, workers in Dunland have the highest literacy rate. They not only learn their own language, but also make the common language of the Western Continent popular among everyone. This is even better than the education in the wealthy Low Countries.

Annick didn't pay much attention to it. The most important things this month were that Princess Elizabeth was coming to inspect, and the second was to prepare Emma's birthday and engagement gifts.

Looking at the watch, the princess will arrive at the train station in Gonya District in almost seven hours. Today, a guy like me who is usually free-range has been summoned to protect the safety of the princess.

After arriving at Section 9, Annick conveyed the above message, but as expected, he did not receive much welcome.

The No. 1 slacker in Section 9, the dynamite maniac Norbert, said directly: "Isn't he just a half-grown child? How can he be thrown away? The royal family has its own bodyguards, why should we go there?"

Merlin knocked him on the head and reminded:

"Of course I'm not asking you to protect the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess. You're just going to stand guard to show the Kelange region's respect for the royal family. Do you understand?"

Annick also agreed: "Of course we don't need to stand at the door of the train station waiting for people to get off the train. There is a special guard of honor to do this. Our task is to hold the car and circle around the train station. The most important thing is to let the princess and the royal family

People see people from the special operations department working, otherwise why would we get high salaries and not have to pay taxes."

Norbert knew that this decision could not be shied away from, so he could only curse and pack up his clothes.

Matthew was in a daze, unable to turn his eyes.

"Hey, what are you thinking about, Matthew?"

After hearing Annick's question, Ma Xiu came back to his senses and explained: "Ah, senior, I was wondering how beautiful this princess of the kingdom is. It is said to be the brightest pearl of Lumang."

What pearl? Annick doesn’t care, since he has nothing to do with the royal family anyway.

"Can't you just look at the photo? Wait a moment."

Annick remembered the "Person of the Century" that Miss Rose had typed for him, and then he turned it out in his office and handed it to Matthew.

"Wow, what a beauty, senior. If I were a man, I might fall in love with him."

Matthew pointed to Princess Elizabeth on the black and white cover and said.

"They are good-looking. After all, they are members of the royal family. After many generations of marriages, the royal family always picks out good-looking ones for marriage. If they are ugly, I have to wonder if His Majesty the King has been cheated on."

After Annick finished speaking, everyone in the room immediately fell silent, and then only Norbert said: "Section Chief, you are so awesome, you dare to make fun of His Majesty the King. I thought I was very brave to make fun of His Majesty the Princess.

Compared with the section chief, I am still too timid."

Well, Annick forgot that this was still a different world after all, so he spoke out his thoughts on earth at once.

"Go and prepare a gun. You'd better go take a bath in the bathhouse. I don't want people to say that my men all stink."

"Really? Why don't I think so?"
