Chapter 1142: Surprising Changes at the Pier
Just after dinner, Taylor came with a serious face. He first gave Alan two brightly colored pills, the red one was poison, and the incubation period was 40 days, enough for them to complete the sea journey. The green one is the antidote, and the endotoxin will be released within half an hour after taking it. Allen handed the red poison to Diego in front of Julian and others, who swallowed it very simply, and then raised his hand and said: "Now you believe it, I am very sincere."
Allen put away the antidote and said, "I will give it to you when I arrive at Ark Port."
"I believe in you, just as you believe in me." Diego shrugged: "Then you must talk about business, I won't bother you, let me go." He said to Taylor again: "Thank you for the dinner, They're really delicious. You know I've come all this way, but I've lived a life worse than that of a tramp, and the miserable days are at an end."
After Diego left, Tyler closed the door, making sure he was the only one in the room, after Alan, Julian, Edward, and Thorin. The big businessman said in a deep voice: "My people in Twilight Castle have just received news that what Mr. Diego said has happened. Not long ago, several people broke into the castle and found Birgan. Follow us."
Ling Lin sighed: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen." He turned to Julian and Allen again: "Thank you, Your Highness, and everyone for trusting me and letting me know about this."
Julian smiled and glanced at Allen, who said, "If Mr. Thorin is a spy, then we can only blame Grand Duke Elizabeth for being blind."
"It's fine to say this behind the Grand Duke's back, but don't say it in front of her." Thorin said nervously.
The others laughed, but in the face of the enemy, this burst of laughter was a bit of a taste of bitterness.
Edward pondered: "If I were the eagle dog sent by Howson, if I have found Birgan now, I would use the power of the lord to deal with us openly. Tiger Shark Port is a port city. Once the other party locks the city, they can The only way to leave is by water. So I think the vultures will then ask the lord to close the port so that ships cannot leave the port. In this way, we can only sit in the city and wait to die."
"What's more, although under Mr. Taylor's arrangement, we didn't attract too many people's attention when we came to Tiger Shark Port. But if you want to investigate, there are some ways to contact Mr. Taylor. For example, the daily food consumption is an obvious one. We nearly 100 people have to eat a lot of food every day, as long as we check from this aspect, we will find out." Edward said with certainty: "So we have to go tomorrow, no matter what. So For one thing, the vultures won't check on Mr. Taylor because we're distracted. And when they want to investigate too much, then I think Mr. Taylor has already taken remedial measures."
Taylor nodded: "Just give me a day or two,
I can make a fuss about food use and make sure they can't find any mistakes. "
"In other words, all we have left is the headache of leaving the port." Julian said: "But don't forget that there is another point, the merchant ship we want to use is also related to Mr. Taylor. There must be no problem according to the previous plan." , now that the Condor is involved, if the original merchant ship is used again, it may bring trouble to Mr. Taylor."
"About this, I have an idea. It can leave Hong Kong, and let Mr. Taylor separate from us." Edward laughed.
The evening breeze is gentle.
Charlie yawned, helped the helmet on his head and complained: "This damn sea breeze is almost rusting my new set of armor."
The two guards next to him laughed, and one of them said, "Captain, what are you afraid of if the armor gets rusty? Just don't get rusty there."
The other said: "The captain is not afraid of rust, just call that Roberta Nassau. The woman will grind it, the captain is happy before it's too late."
Charlie said unhappily: "You two bastards, what else do you do besides thinking about women all day long? Stop talking nonsense and turn around quickly so you can go to sleep."
Charlie was the captain of the harbor guard, and every night, after the ships settled in, the guard had to make one, sometimes several, rounds. In case any ship forgets to fix it and is taken away by the waves, then tomorrow the guard office will ask those merchants to lift off the ceiling. It's not that this kind of thing has happened before, and Charlie doesn't want to deal with those tricky businessmen. He preferred a woman like Robella, whose mouth could do other things than please him with eloquence, the kind of thing a man would like.
Charlie licked his lips when he thought of Robella. It's a pity that it's his turn to be on duty tonight, otherwise, he would be enjoying the service of that little mouth on the bed right now.
"Hey, why are there still people here?" A guard yelled, and raised the lantern in his hand, a kind of lantern with a cover so you don't have to worry about being blown out by the wind.
Under the lights, there was indeed a team heading towards the pier. Charlie frowned: "Look."
He stood in the middle of the road and asked loudly: "What's the matter, it's so late, what are you doing at the pier?"
"Captain Charlie, right? I'm Jeter."
In the team over there, a man trotted over on a horse first, jumped off his horse when he came near the guards, he was a dark middle-aged man. Charlie recognized him. This is Captain Jeter. He has been employed by the Golden Sail Chamber of Commerce for many years, and he has a little friendship with Charlie. Seeing him, Charlie was stunned and said, "Captain Jeter, who are you?"
"Isn't there a batch of goods to be shipped to the south tomorrow? The boss temporarily added some goods and asked us to load them on the ship first, so that we can set off when the port opens tomorrow morning." Jeter said with a bitter face: "Businessman, no profit It’s not happy, it’s just that we have to run around and work hard for most of the night.”
"It turns out that's the case, then you should be busy and let me know when you leave." Charlie knew very well that Taylor, the boss of Jinfan Chamber of Commerce, is now a big hit in Tiger Shark Port. Not to mention that he and Jeter had some friendship, even if they didn't, they wouldn't dare to make things difficult for Jin Fan's people, so they let them go.
Jet jumped on the horse and said, "Wait for me to find you a drink."
"It's settled." Charlie patted his horse: "Go and get busy."
The team passed right under Charlie's nose. What the captain didn't know was that Captain Jet's smile disappeared as soon as he entered the dock. He led the team to the vicinity of the three Jinfan merchant ships. The captain boarded the ship and woke up the sailors on the ship, and then opened the cargo boxes one by one. But there was no cargo there, but a steel front warrior and a blacksmith from Longlance Town.
From one of the cargo boxes, Lucy jumped out. She nodded to the captain, raised her hand, and ordered the steel front warriors to board the ship in three batches. The blacksmith in Longlance Town followed closely behind, and then Jeter went to the boat again and met with the other two captains. They quietly untied the ropes that fixed the ship, and the sailors also took their positions, which was a team ready to leave the port at any time.
After doing all this, there was a shower of horseshoes from the direction of the entrance of the pier.
Charlie also heard the sound of horseshoes. He was startled, and hurriedly took the guards and ran towards the entrance of the pier. After a while, he saw a group of iron cavalry galloping in this direction. Charlie knew something was wrong when he saw the situation, but he mustered up the courage to shout: "Who are you? Stop all of them." , this is an important place on the dock, no intrusion is allowed, and offenders will be arrested!"
The knights stopped, and the man in front had eye-catching silver hair. He smiled slightly and said, "Are you sure?"
Birgun kept cursing, but sat helplessly on the carriage. The carriage was heading towards the port, and there were no guards behind the carriage, only the man named Searle and his dozen or so men. Searle asked him to go to the pier in person overnight and ordered the port guard to close the pier and prohibit ships from leaving the port. Birgun had intended to issue the order tomorrow, but Searle insisted that he must do so.
Considering that if he didn't do this, the man would probably use force again, so the count could only curse in his heart, but he had to go to the direction of the port after dinner.
Searle sat on the horse with a gloomy face. They have received information, and they are sure that Julian and Allen are in Tiger Shark Port. As long as the port is closed and the city is blocked, those rebels will have nowhere to escape. At that time, it is only a matter of time before they are caught. If you do this job well, Searle will be promoted. Thinking that he was about to be promoted to Rotten Vulture, he felt hot all over.
At this time, a pillar of fire suddenly shot up from the direction of the port. The pillar of fire seemed to lick the night, and the sound of explosions from afar made the horse panic even more. Searle said badly to himself, ignored Birgan, and shouted: "Everyone follow!"
He flew away with his men.
A bad premonition is rising in my heart.
When he arrived at the port, several ships were on fire at the pier, and three others left the port. Searle ran all the way to the pier, looked at the three merchant ships hidden under the night, and couldn't help but roared. He turned around, his eyes were bloodshot: "Go get the person in charge of the dock!"
A few minutes later, Charlie with his armor broken was thrown at Searle's feet. At this time Birgan also arrived, looking at the messy pier, Birgan screamed: "What's going on?"
Searle kicked Charlie on the ground: "Maybe this gentleman can give us an answer."
Charlie didn't know Searle, but he knew Bergan. Immediately threw himself at his feet and howled: "Sir, this is none of my business. The opponent is too strong, and there are so many people, we can't stop it."
Searle pulled him up and pointed to an obvious gap on the pier: "Whose boat is that?"
"It belongs to the Jinfan Chamber of Commerce. Their merchant ship was supposed to set sail tomorrow."
At this moment, another carriage drove into the pier. A man jumped off the carriage and shouted at Birgan from a distance: "Master Earl, you have to help me this time no matter what. Those bastards not only robbed my ship, but also robbed my cargo and the captain." They. If I can’t find them, my loss will be difficult to estimate.”
Birgan felt dizzy, because that man was Taylor, his biggest creditor.
