An hour later, Lorraine returned to the dock with two strong workers and saw a magical scene in her eyes.

    Lake stood on the deck in high spirits, talking and laughing with three well-dressed gentlemen.

    There are about a dozen dockers on and off the ship who are busy unloading goods.

    Their actions were standard and neat. A group of people lined up in long rows, like an assembly line, picked up the vegetables in the bottom cabin, transported them off the ship, sent them to the large carriage parked on one side, and piled them into the carriage neatly.

    Lorraine crowded into the boat with a question mark on his head and took the workers he hired to Lake: "Sir, this is..."

    "Little Lorraine, let me introduce you." Lake laughed and dragged Lorraine into the crowd. "Mr. Martin, Mr. Thomas and Mr. Peter. They are generous local businessmen who have just bought our whole ship."

    Lorraine saluted the three gentlemen one by one. After a few polite greetings, Lorraine apologized and took lecla aside.

    "Sir, did you say just now?"

    "Er..." Lake''s face flushed slightly. "I just got off the ship... Mr. Peter happened to be on the side."

    "And then?"

    "He apologized for the coachman''s jokes about my behavior and invited me to his restaurant. When I heard that he was a caterer, I tried to tell him that our ship was loaded with a whole cabin of fresh vegetables."

    "Then he ate all the goods?"

    "For him, we have a lot of goods." Lake seriously corrected Lorraine''s words, "so he contacted his friends. Mr. Martin runs a pub and Mr. Thomas is a usurer..."

    Lorraine said in disbelief, "in order to buy vegetables, they also borrow usury?"

    "What are you talking about?" Lake hurriedly dragged Lorraine further. "Mr. Thomas has more than 30 thugs and needs ingredients. He''s a buyer!"

    A ship of vegetables, three buyers, lake used seasick Kung Fu to sell the goods at a high price of 36 pounds, both money and goods.

    Considering that the cost of the shipment was less than 28 pounds, Lake made a profit of nearly 30%.

    This money is too easy to earn

    Lorraine looked at Lake with a complicated face: "Sir, you may be a born businessman..."

    "Really?" Lake liked the compliment. "What did you do just now, little Lorraine?"

    "I''ll find some people to clean up the traces of your casting..."

    Unfortunately, as a devout Protestant, Lake denied his relationship with witchcraft.

    In his opinion, Mr. Peter was his first noble man in black harbor. He not only bought all the dishes of the attic chamber of Commerce, but also introduced him to the second noble man, Mr. Thomas, a usurer.

    Lake heard from Mr. Thomas that a black market businessman was selling a batch of Oriental porcelain recently. The quality was high and the price was low.

    This coincides with the information that lake bought from brokers.

    He was so excited that he immediately left Lorraine to see the boat, got into Mr. Thomas''s carriage and entered the port area. He was ready to take advantage of this evil wind to buy exquisite Oriental porcelain from the black market merchant named old Barry and go back to Plymouth to make a lot of money.

    Lorraine had no choice but to smile bitterly.

    So, at night.

    The cargo on board was empty. Mr. Martin and Mr. Peter took the workers with them. The workers hired by Lorraine also completed their work. They cleaned up a new stern cabin, which was clean and tidy. There was a smell of sea water everywhere, and there was no strange smell.

    Lorraine is satisfied with the cleaning effect.

    He readily paid a shilling each, then put away the planks, sat bored on the deck and stared at the clear sky.

    The pier is quiet at night.

    The port could not find the vitality of the day, and there were sporadic lights left by the berthing ships, silent everywhere, and no one near or far.

    Everyone ran to the port.

    There are solid land, enchanting women and spicy spirits, each of which is a devil enough to make sailors sell their souls.

    If they don''t spend their last penny, they will never be willing to board the ship and leave the port.

    Lorraine suddenly missed the heir.

    There is Sir Leighton there. He never needs to worry that his exuberant energy has nowhere to vent, unlike now

    He wanted to tie the knot again.

    Are you crazy?

    Mingming only called once two hours ago

    He got up impatiently, strode up the sail net and climbed to the high observatory.

    At an altitude of 22 meters, the moon in the sky was within reach. At this time, Lorraine felt a trace of peace.

    "That''s weird..."

    He stretched out his palm and circled the brightly lit port area not far away in the center of the circle, frowning and meditating.

    From the time he returned to the sea again, his energy became very strong.

    In the previous three days, he operated the Atlantis beauty with a standard crew of eight at sea alone, and had to distract himself from taking care of lake, a land duck. He slept less than two hours a day, but he never felt weak.

    Today, I had a good trip. I had nothing to do when I arrived at heigang. In the dead of night, he simply began to get upset.

    His heart is like a fire. In the fire, something is coming out

    Are you sick? Or eager for success?

    While thinking, Lorraine saw the three carriages driving out of the port area, and the fat Lake sitting on the shaft of the first carriage was waving to him from a distance and excitedly.

    "Little Lorraine! Put down the board! Open the bottom cabin! We''re going to be rich!"

    ……

    Getting rich

    Standing side by side on the stern deck with lake, Lorraine watched seven or eight big men walking awkwardly on the ship and carrying bags of spices into the bottom cabin. He was not only confused, but also vigilant.

    Spice is the harvest of lake''s trip.

    He went with Mr. Thomas to old Barry''s warehouse to talk about business. He had planned to choose a set of Oriental porcelain at a suitable price and return to Plymouth to make a lot of money.

    Lorraine never thought that lake would make a lot of money.

    Although we can''t tell whether porcelain is true or not, Lorraine knows the depth of the porcelain industry better than 99% of Europeans.

    What blue and white porcelain, cloisonne, Jun cellar, Ding cellar, Dou color porcelain

    Porcelain is a work of art, and its value is never judged by weight. Lake is just a qualified cobbler. What can he understand?

    The best result of his trip was to find a set of tea set loved by English upper class society. Because tea sets have the attributes of luxury goods and daily necessities, as long as they sell better, they won''t lose money anyway.

    But who knows, lake has found three whole carts of spices, nearly 500 kilograms

    Things got weird.

    Lorraine subconsciously touched the sword on her waist and asked in a low voice, "don''t you think things are going too smoothly today, sir?"

    "God bless us." Lake crossed his chest gratefully. "Little Lorraine, more than 400 kilograms of spices... Even if it''s just inferior goods soaked in sea water and transported back to Plymouth, we can easily sell 100 pounds. That''s more than 250% of the profit!"

    "That''s the problem, isn''t it?" Lorraine frowned deeply. "Spices are not as easy to trace as porcelain. If they can sell for a hundred pounds, why should old Barry sell for forty pounds?"

    "He has no boat!"

    "Sell it to the French?" Lorraine pressed. "It''s a spice. It''s in short supply all over Europe!"

    "This..." Lake finally woke up, but he was still lucky. "Little Lorraine, Mr. Barry is a black market businessman and specializes in the supply and marketing of pirates. I guess his identity should be a wanted criminal. Once he leaves black port, he has to go to jail."

    "You even think of him as a wanted criminal and dare to do business with him?"

    "This is black Harbor..."

    Lorraine felt a threat.

    Dunninger said that when the profit reaches 10%, businessmen will be ready to move; When the profit reaches 50%, businessmen will take risks; When the profit reaches 100%, they dare to trample on all the laws in the world; When the profit reached 300%, they dared to risk hanging.

    Lake is now obviously more than desperate, but old Barry seems too rational

    "Sir, I think..."

    "Two distinguished gentlemen."

    Suddenly a humble greeting came from behind his ears. Lorraine was creepy. Subconsciously, he protected lake behind him and held the handle of the sword tightly.

    He turned around and saw that the speaker was the leader of the spice worker. He seemed to be frightened by Lorraine''s reaction. He stepped back and was on guard.

    "Sir, I''m Mr. Barry''s worker. Look..."

    "We know who you are." Lorraine squinted and interrupted him. "Have you finished your work? Why do I see more than half of the spices on the carriage and you stroll in front of us?"

    The leader swallowed his saliva, crossed Lorraine and looked at Lake sincerely.

    "Sir, there are too many goods and the workers have worked hard for another day... Can you ask the people in the ship to help? We are willing to give an appropriate reward."

    Lake shook his head apologetically. "Sorry, there are only me and little Lorraine on this ship. There are no other sailors."

    "Really?" the leader retreated a few steps, and even his voice became low.

    His voice and his response made the scene suddenly nervous. Lorraine Qiang pulled out his sword and pushed him to the stern regardless of lake''s opposition.

    Lake struggled and nervous, but also paid attention to his most cherished reputation. He muttered all the way: "it''s very impolite. Educated people shouldn''t be questioned!"

    "Sir, that''s enough!" Lorraine took his sword, sank his shoulder and put it through God. "He doesn''t care if you lie. He just wants to know if there are any of our people on board."

    "Ah?"

    The leader in the shadow laughed.

    "What a clever boy and brave."

    After a pause, he walked out of a line of seven or eight men with knives.

    They were all former Spice workers.

    The leader took the machete from one person''s hand, waved it twice, and looked at Lorraine with a grim smile.

    "A boy who doesn''t know how to live or die meets a stupid master. No wonder you dare to do business with the businessmen of black port without the consent of the black port Committee..."

    "What are you... Doing?" Lake said incoherently in horror. "Mr. Barry... Mr. Barry..."

    "Your friend Mr. Peter is bankrupt. In order not to let his beautiful wife and daughter fall into the dust, he paid you and your boat to the creditor, Mr. Thomas."

    The leader explained with a smile.

    "Mr. Martin of the committee is the witness to prove that you traded in black port without the permission of the Committee. In this way, you lose the protection of black Port Law."

    "It''s not expensive for Mr. Thomas to sell you to Mr. Barry, with a man and a boat, for a hundred pounds, just to pay Mr. Peter''s arrears and Mr. Martin''s remuneration."

    "Therefore, on behalf of Mr. Barry, I declare that you and your property will belong to the Barry chamber of Commerce from this moment." the leader raised his knife and said word by word, "accept your life, Englishman. Those who follow will prosper and those who go against... Will die."
