After receiving Teach's reply, the envoy left the Pirate Island and took a boat back to his country. After arriving at the palace, he immediately met Kamehameha IV. In the study, Kamehameha IV was wearing a black military uniform and a short haircut.
He was dressed meticulously. He had an oval face and looked extremely handsome, but he had a big beard that gave him a rugged air.
Kamehameha IV looked calmly and asked: "How is the situation?"
The envoy leaned forward a little further and replied respectfully: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Teach has agreed to meet with you."
A smile appeared on Kamehameha IV's face and he said: "Very good, implement the follow-up plan immediately."
"yes."
The envoy nodded, bowed and retreated. Kamehameha IV stared at the envoy's leaving figure with a cold look on his lips, which was in stark contrast to his peaceful eyes.
…
Teach left the island with a group of pirates to meet Kamehameha IV.
Thomson followed with serious eyes and a hint of worry in his eyebrows, and said: "Captain, I always feel a little strange when meeting King Kamehameha this time. Although you brought a thousand pirates with you, you are full of momentum.
But I always feel that something is wrong, so we might as well return to the island and let King Kamehameha come to the island. This will make it perfect."
Teach sneered twice and asked: "King Kamehameha is as timid as a mouse. If you ask him to come to the island, will he dare to come?"
"Don't dare." Thomson replied immediately.
Tiqi rolled his eyes and said, "Since you know you don't dare to come, your idea is feasible."
Thomson smiled and continued: "I'm still a little worried."
Teach stopped, waved his hand, and said energetically: "President Li just said yesterday that we want to be a qualified pirate with quality. At that time, you clapped your hands vigorously and said yes, agreeing with President Li.
President Lee said that a quality pirate must be brave and courageous. King Kamehameha invited me to meet to discuss the purchase of weapons. This is a normal thing, but you didn’t dare to go.
, can this be called bravery? Is it still what a quality pirate should do? With me here, don’t be afraid, we are here to make money, there will be no problems.”
Thomson said in his heart that President Lee mentioned five aspects, and also said that qualified pirates must have wisdom. Now he is recklessly meeting King Kamehameha. This is a sign of lack of wisdom.
Unfortunately, Thomson could only think about it in his mind.
He couldn't stop this.
Thomson could not persuade him, so he could only tell the pirates under his command to cheer up and be as careful as possible.
It took a group of people half a day to arrive at a small island at the border of the Kingdom of Hawaii and Pirate Island. This was the location set by King Kamehameha, and Thomson had also sent someone to inquire about the situation in advance, so the group of people arrived.
Arriving at the island, after they arrived, they waited for about half an hour before Kamehameha IV also came to the island with his soldiers.
When Kamehameha IV saw Teach, he had a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Captain Teach, I often hear your name like thunder. Today is the first time I see Captain Teach."
, I’ve never heard of Captain Teach as a hero, handsome, and admirable.”
Teach's face was also full of smiles, and he responded with a smile: "His Majesty the King has praised me. In fact, I am very ordinary. I did not expect that King Kamehameha is also a personable man."
The two parties sat down, and the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared.
Teach put his own gun next to him and said straight to the point: "King Kamehameha, this time you are buying weapons from me, how many machine guns are you planning to buy?"
Kamehameha IV replied: "A thousand machine guns, I wonder if you have so many weapons."
Tiqi looked like he was pointing the way, and he was full of pride and said loudly: "Not to mention a thousand, even ten thousand machine guns, I have no problem. The question is, can you afford the money?"
"Money is no object," Kamehameha IV replied.
Immediately, Teach revealed the price of the machine gun, and after some discussion, the two parties settled on it.
Kamehameha IV looked urgent and said: "Captain Teach, because Britain and the United States are increasingly interfering in the kingdom, I urgently need weapons and equipment for the army. If you rush back now, can you send the weapons over tomorrow? "
Teach replied: "Okay, I will go back to pick up the goods immediately."
"Thank you."
Kamehameha IV nodded, turned around, stood up and left.
After watching Kamehameha IV leave, Teach also returned to the island with a group of pirate soldiers. After returning to the island, it was already evening and it was getting late. Teach ordered Thomson to prepare to sell The weapons of Kamehameha IV were to be transported directly tomorrow. At the same time, Teach came outside Li Zhen's room and knocked on the door.
After entering the house, Teach said with an apologetic expression: "President Lee, I met with Kamehameha IV today. He has decided to buy a thousand machine guns and will need the goods tomorrow. Therefore, I will need them tomorrow." I am escorting machine guns there, so I want to wait until I come back to practice it for you. Please forgive me."
Li Zhen said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. I understand Captain Teach. You make money by selling guns, which is equivalent to making money by selling weapons produced by Chinese factories. It doesn't matter if you wait a little longer."
"Thank you, President Li, for your understanding. I have some things to deal with and will go back first."
After he turned and left, Li Zhen also went to rest.
…
Early in the morning, the island is bustling with activity.
All the pirates knew that Teach had made a big deal, selling weapons to Kamehameha IV. Therefore, many pirates rejoiced and were extremely happy. Teach still brought a thousand pirate soldiers to escort them. One thousand machine guns left Pirate Island and went to trade with Kamehameha IV.
After Teach arrived at the trading island, he made a deal with Kamehameha IV.
Kamehameha IV paid the money, took the gun, and said with a smile: "Captain Teach, this is the first cooperation between us. It is very pleasant. I hope we can cooperate again in the future."
Tiqi looked at the piles of money and felt extremely excited.
Counting the money feels so good.
He waved his hand and said happily: "I also look forward to cooperating with His Majesty the King again. Even if His Majesty the King encounters difficulties in resisting the British and American troops, you can ask us to take action. Of course, if you need compensation, well, we will see you later. "
After saying that, Teach took the pirates and walked away.
Kamehameha IV stared at the back of Teach and his group as they left, with a sneer on his lips. After these people took the money, they were all extremely excited, and some were already immersed in the excitement of getting money.
Even though such pirates were proud and tough at heart, they had lost their combat effectiveness. Kamehameha IV used money to buy guns, on the one hand, to equip himself, and on the other hand, to paralyze the opponent.
