Chapter 842 Dearborn

The Golden Route is a paradise for adventurers of all kinds.

Since the beginning of the age of great voyages, corresponding to pirates, many pirate ports have emerged as the times require.

Among them, some ports only accept pirates, which are the key targets of navies of various countries.

On the other hand, some ports are purely known for their high degree of freedom, and the inspection of pirates is very loose, but the law and order in the port is very strict.

This is often a good place for selling stolen goods and leisure in the eyes of pirates, and what comes with the pirates is an endless stream of wealth and huge business opportunities.

From the Spice Islands, one peppercorn worth one Galleon, the pirates can sell it for two or three silver Gnars, and the profit is doubled as soon as it changes hands!

Attracted by 100% profits, these private ports can last forever.

For this huge benefit, the owners of those ports can climb up to any big noble or even the royal family, thus gathering powerful forces.

Even the navy dare not clear such a port easily, unless they are willing to make an enemy of half the world!

"Port Dearborn!"

The Mockingjay towed the merchant ship and slowly headed towards a certain port.

Fang Yuan raised the binoculars, and immediately saw an excellent pier surrounded by mountains and rivers, surrounded by many boats, and continuous buildings on the hillside.

"This is the private port of the Dearborn family. The first Viscount Dearborn was a great navigator. After retiring from the navy, he got this island as a fief and built Dearborn on it. Hong Kong is now the biggest source of wealth for the whole family!"

Bill introduced in Fang Yuan's ear in a doggy manner: "Of course... this is just a rhetoric to deceive the common people. The Dearborn family is nothing more than white gloves. The profit chain of this port can be traced back to at least one duke. Very deep court relationship! Therefore, unless there are wanted pirates blatantly showing up, as long as there are no large-scale public security cases, the navy will rarely intervene here!"

"Well! As long as it's safe."

Fang Yuan has seen a lot of this kind of big nobles raising white gloves in private and indirectly participating in black transactions, so he doesn't think it strange at all.

"There is absolutely no problem with safety. All struggles are prohibited within 20 nautical miles of Dearborn Port. Otherwise, it will be the enemy of the entire Dearborn family! It will definitely attract the navy!"

Bill patted his chest.

Although the pirates in this world are very powerful, the navies of Insman and other navigating powers are not vegetarian.

For example, the Insman Navy claims to have the largest fleet in the world, and as long as there is demand, it can continue to expand.

The war potential contained in it is not even the pirate governor's willingness to provoke easily.

"Actually...even if you count the legendary pirate ship, a pirate governor may not be the opponent of Insman's Royal Navy..."

Fang Yuan said silently in his heart: "In this world, the relationship between pirates and navies, and between pirates and countries is really very interesting."

"However, no one seems to realize the subtleties, maybe I can add to the flames..."

He is not only his own team, there are other secret hands in Insman's land and in the pirate group.

At the right time, it is enough to accomplish many things.

"Your Excellency, Captain... Port of Dearborn is not a pure pirate port after all. The Rose Merchant Guild to which the ship behind us belongs is run by aristocrats. It may be troublesome to sell the goods, and if you want to sell the captive , it's not very suitable here..."

Bill watched the ship gradually enter the port, and couldn't help admonishing Fang Yuan.

If he was the pilot, of course he would not choose this port.

But who made Fang Yuan give the order before? The captain has an order, and he, the newly promoted second officer, has to go even if it is a sea of ​​swords and fire.

"Well... I see!"

Fang Yuan nodded, and said very calmly: "Even if it doesn't work, we can take a rest here to replenish other supplies and manpower!"

Having just experienced two major battles, his pirates urgently needed a place to vent and recuperate.

Although this Port of Dearborn is not suitable in other aspects, it undoubtedly meets the requirements in terms of distance.

And such an armed merchant ship, dragging a large ship into the port, immediately received many attention gifts.

Obviously, no matter how idiotic the sailors were, they knew that this was a pirate ship that had just finished plundering, and the eyes of some merchants were already shining.

And some people looked at the icon of the Rose Merchant Ship thoughtfully.

"Good day, honorable captain!"

When Fang Yuan came to the pier, a tax officer wearing a wig greeted him immediately: "Registration at the port!"

"Um!"

Fang Yuan nodded reservedly, and threw out a money bag.

"We are a ship of the Rose Chamber of Commerce. We just encountered pirates and need to take a rest!" Bill rolled his eyes, stepped forward and began to flicker.

"Okay, the captain of the Rose Merchant Ship - Your Excellency Roger! Welcome to Port of Dearborn, I wish you a wonderful experience!"

Sure enough, the other party did not investigate the authenticity of these remarks, and directly handed over a document.

"Let's go, let's go to the market!"

Fang Yuan left the butcher to guard the base camp, and took Bill on the road: "And... next time, don't give me a fake name!"

"Sorry, Captain!"

Bill immediately fell silent.

"This captain! If you need to sell any supplies, please consider our Violet Chamber of Commerce!"

"Captain, do you need strong sailors?"

"I have the best bar here, the hottest woman in Port Dearborn..."

...

As soon as he got out of the pier, Fang Yuan was almost surrounded by enthusiastic businessmen. If he hadn't had several big and round servants, he might have jumped on him.

The real big pirates all have their own ways of selling their stolen goods, and even run chambers of commerce secretly.

And even a small gang like the Tiger Pirates had regular merchants who sold stolen goods, and they could get relatively generous prices.

Fang Yuan squinted his eyes. The contact person of the Violet Chamber of Commerce looked like a big fat man with a shiny face, but he had no doubt that if he really negotiated business with the other party, he could sell the goods in his hand at a price of 30% Go, it's all in the favor of lady luck.

"Leave a way! Make a way!"

When encountering this kind of thing, Bill did his part to open the way ahead and took Fang Yuan away from the pier.

"Captain, we Mockingjays used to have some tricks, although Fred is dead, but for pirates, this is a normal thing..."

Seeing that there was no outsider beside him, Bill's eyes flickered, and he said to Fang Yuan.

"Oh? It turns out that the former Mockingjay also has sales channels here. Very good, you can contact them!"

Fang Yuan nodded: "Also... If I want to buy a boat, what can the dock here provide?"

"I'm afraid at most it's the same armed merchant ship as the Mockingjay before. After all, this is just a small port..."

Bill looked at Fang Yuan's face: "Captain, if you want a larger and stronger ship, such as a navy's third-tier battleship, then you'd better go to the Nightmare Sea. There seems to be a large-scale war in the nearest Bloody Mary Harbor." Auctions, and the docks there can build Tier 3 battleships, or customize according to the owner's wishes..."

"Nightmare Sea, Bloody Mary Harbor?"

Fang Yuan touched his chin.

The most prosperous route in this world at present is the golden route from Insman to Nightmare Sea, Golden Sea, Pirate King City, Coral Sea, Spice Islands, and the East.

After entering the Nightmare Sea, you will completely leave the offshore category, and the possibility of encountering giant sea monsters will increase greatly, and there will be various dangers.

At the same time, the chances of obtaining wealth also increase instantly.

"The Nightmare Sea is already a part of the golden route, and the pirates entrenched in it are no worse than the Tiger Pirates..."

Fang Yuan pointedly said: "Of course... If you just move in and out quickly, if you're not too lucky, you won't just meet..."

"The pirate governor entrenched in the Nightmare Sea should be Blackbeard, rumored to be very bloody and brutal... And my favored one, the octopus pirate group that Orlando belongs to, seems to have been active in the Nightmare Sea, but later encountered another Big crisis, being eliminated...'

He thought of more information.

...

Just when Fang Yuan and his group were walking in the market.

A black shadow stared at the rose merchant ship for a long time, finally turned around, walked through the streets and alleys, and finally entered a mansion.

This is the mansion of the Dearborn family.

Soon, this information was sent to the contemporary Viscount Dearborn.

"The merchant ship of the Rose Chamber of Commerce..."

The viscount is about fifty years old, with gray hair at the temples, cold and sharp eyes, thin lips, and a nose like a hook: "Have you been robbed by pirates?"

To be honest, matters of this level are generally not worthy of his attention.

After all, in order to attract more pirates to sell their stolen goods, Dearborn Harbor must strictly abide by the principle of neutrality.

However, if you add a noble lady on board, it is worth discussing.

"The daughter of Viscount Quinn, Elizabeth...that is the lady who is about to marry Viscount Charlie..."

Viscount Dearborn pursed his lips.

Viscount Charlie is not only handsome and extraordinary, but also has many properties under his name, and behind him is Insman's wealthy family.

Strictly speaking, Elizabeth was able to marry because she had climbed a high branch.

Moreover, Viscount Dearborn knew very well that Charlie's wealthy family was inextricably linked with his backstage.

Although outsiders don't know this, but because of emotion and reason, I have to lend a helping hand.

"I just received the news that Elizabeth will be returning to the country on a rose merchant ship...Unexpectedly, I encountered pirates..."

Lord Viscount hesitated a little.

First of all, out of the need to maintain his reputation, he couldn't blatantly deal with Fang Yuan and his party by smashing his own brand.

Then, he didn't confirm Elizabeth's situation, whether she was killed, captured, or something else happened, maybe even the other party was on another ship and didn't encounter all kinds of bad luck?

Many thoughts flooded in, causing Lord Viscount a headache.
