Theft, murder, "jianyin", robbery... No matter what type of crime it is, there is only one sentence in the Caribbean, piracy.

Most of the endings are hanging on the hoisting cargo shelves at the dock, which is that simple.

When Lu Yuan drove a group of return sailors and August away from Port-au-Prince, what was left behind was a sinking ship and two bodies hanging from the dock, swaying in the sea breeze.

Old Helende may be a saint in the orphan and widowed mother he has always sponsored, and in Misha's eyes, he is probably a hard-mouthed elder. Reginald might be the pioneer of black liberation, Martin Luther King of this era. But these are not enough to stop Lu Yuan's determination. He doesn't care or have no interest in understanding why they betrayed, which will not change the result... Because Lu Yuan can only be considered a little conscience at most, and is very far away from the saint.

If the Nanyang Navy of the Ming Dynasty was the lid of the Caribbean powder barrel, then there was no doubt that Lu Yuan was the lid of the contractor team. Because Lu Yuan, a guy who stole the limelight, appeared, the three teams had not started to make a large-scale merger. Moreover... due to frequent personnel exchanges, they now have a stance of not wanting to make a merger.

When Lu Yuan drove his ship away from Port-au-Prince to the south, Elizabeth took Misha and the super battleship "Ark Royal" and plunged north into the Gulf of Mexico. I don't know where he ran. Lu Yuan only received a letter left by Elizabeth in Port-au-Prince, which said all the contents of his desire to "trade" with him - using the gold of the Inca Empire and the support of "Ark Royal" regardless of loss, in exchange for a chance to help Lu Yuan assist in capturing the "Flying Dutchman".

If he didn't agree, he would transform Misha into a lace edge... Lu Yuan was amused and crying. Because Elizabeth was obviously avoiding him and was carrying Misha all the way. Elizabeth seemed to be... directly frightened.

He goes east, she will go west; he goes south, she will go north immediately. The slogans are shouting, and people are running fast!

To be honest, although Lu Yuan had never seen the "Flying Dutchman", this ship was a Dutch Frute sailing ship in the past. Although it was also a one-star ship, it was already a big gap from the current design concept. For example, it has a high center of gravity, and the number of artillery is only half of the current one-star warships. The forecastle and stern tower are very high. There is no wheel rudder installed... etc. It is certain that apart from magical abilities, the basic data is definitely not as good as the "Ark Royal"! The gap in the design concepts of the two warships is nearly a hundred years...

But the "Flying Dutchman" may not be the most powerful sailing ship, but it must be the most suitable for Elizabeth. Death, the treasure of this undead master.

The significance of this ship is not in this world... Lu Yuan can even clearly judge that this is probably the basis for Elizabeth to build the Mage Tower. - It's like Lu Yuan. If he saw a floating city in the age of Naserel, he would definitely grab it without hesitation and convert it into a magic tower - I want it to float over the Baldur Gate twenty-four hours a day to show off! Then I see those old guys so envious and jealous that their eyes turn green... It's very satisfying to think about it like this.

Although Lu Yuan believed that he was still the only person who reached the full value of his navigation skills, and it was not easy to break through to level 100. However, the people from the three teams still used equipment, titles and skills to make up for the gap with him. In addition to not obtaining active skills, he could already officially own a one-star battleship.

Lu Yuan was a big pit dug by the main god for a month on the shipwreck island. His development momentum was cut off all of a sudden, making everyone surpass him.

Unless he stops and leaves the world with settlement points, he leaves the world. Otherwise, a flagship that is less than the top and less than the bottom. He can only fight a guerrilla warfare and becomes Lu Yuan’s biggest shortcoming. As for the rest, the lack of supply bases needed by big ships, the lack of national power as a backing, etc., all become a worry of happiness.

Therefore, how to strengthen the "Erona" has become the top priority.

Lu Yuan took out two golden scrolls and placed them on his captain's table.

One was only one elbow long and had a light golden color. It was one of the two golden scrolls given by Master Oren of Trinidad. After leaving the shipwreck Island, his carpenter level jumped up a lot, reaching level 67, which was enough to interpret this scroll that required sixty-year-old woodworking level.

When he unfolded the interpretation, he was both surprised and unsurprising to see that after making drawings for the "blue boat canvas" that made blue sails, he gained a new partially reinforced drawing.

———————

"Oron's long-barrel cannon" manufacturing drawings:

Gold manufacturing drawings specially used to strengthen artillery of various caliber.

Spanish shipbuilder Oren, one of the inventors of the Garen warship, was committed to making up for the design flaws of the Garen warship in his later years. He will always make the overall way of manufacturing magic warships, trying to split them into strengthening the various components. "Oren's long-barrel cannon" is another achievement he has accomplished.

Requirement: Carpenter level is greater than 60. (limited to use in Luyuan)

Number of usages: 10/10

Note 1: Each time you use the drawing, you can upgrade thirty cannons of the same caliber and the same material to "Olen long tube cannons". In addition to the brand new ordinary cannons, copper ingots XXX, iron ingots XXX... and additional property worth 12,000 pesos (coins, jewelry, dog head gold... etc. are all available).

Thirty Oren long-barrel cannons can be made at each use.

Note 2: Oren long-barrel cannon, this cannon that is strengthened by magic cannot be repaired after being damaged. (The caliber remains unchanged, range, penetration power +20%, and recoil reduction by 20%)

———————

If there is a powerful ship, this kind of artillery will be like a tiger. Otherwise, it will be useless if it is strengthened just by strengthening the artillery.

Lu Yuan turned his gaze to the golden treasure chest of the big octopus. When he was approaching the two-meter-long dark golden reinforced scroll, a knock suddenly sounded outside the door.

As soon as Lu Yuan raised his hand, he put away the identified "Oren long-drill artillery manufacturing drawings" and the dark gold scroll, and then took out a book and placed it on the table to pretend. Now, except for August and John on the ship, he could not trust anyone else for the time being.

"Please come in," Lu Yuan crossed his fingers and looked at the shipbuilder Henrik Van Dyke and his first mate John Workman walked in together. Lu Yuan saw the two of them talking enthusiastically and frowned slightly. To be honest, he did not trust Henrik Van Dyke, this guy who loves money like life. But he lacks a qualified ship carpenter on the ship now. Masters like Henrik are rare and scarce resources. As long as he is willing to continue working on the ship, no one will drive him away.

There is obviously a reason for John to approach Henrik. The people on the shipwreck island have left. Among the remaining people, Father Padley is engaged in theological research every day, and only Henrik can provide him with some support. Otherwise, even if he is the first mate appointed by Lu Yuan himself, he lacks enough prestige. Because no matter August or the sailors who have been re-uploaded, they are all "old ministers", and it will take some time for him to suppress the situation.

It is understandable that Lu Yuan secretly gave an annotation.

"Is there anything?" Lu Yuan asked first. He is busy planning now, and he will only play the "Flying Dutchman" two weeks later. He does not have much time to be polite.

"I want to provide some advice on how to strengthen the Dog War...Erona." Henrik looked casual and cunning, and the obvious mid-way change made Lu Yuan even more annoyed. "You have talked to me a few times recently... Although in my opinion, this ship is perfect, whether it is business or... doing other businesses, it is enough. You know. Larger ships are sometimes not that convenient. But the recent situation has made me guess that you seem to be in urgent need of a comprehensive upgrade of the ship, and maybe I can provide some help."

"Tell me." Lu Yuan didn't comment. He wouldn't see any traces of bait and pounce on him.

"1.5 million pesos!" the old man offered without hesitation.

"Oh?!" Even John looked at Henrik in surprise. He didn't expect that he would speak loudly! But Lu Yuan didn't seem to care about his nails, "1.5 million... is the price to complete the full upgrade of the 'Erona'? Or is it just the price you provide information?"

"Of course..." The old man showed a shameless look on his face and said with a smile. "The price of information provided, and the money for upgrading is calculated separately."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan sat upright and looked at the old shipman Henrik very seriously, "I just wanted to say why don't you go and rob me? But I know, you are robbing me!" He leaned back to his chair again. "What can you bring me? 1.5 million pesos... Are you buying me a new battleship? Sun King or Royal Ark?"

"But you need it urgently now, and only I know the news about this enhanced ship." The old man said fearlessly.

"Oh? Only you know?" Lu Yuan looked at his eyes tightly, and after a while he sneered, "Isn't it just in the Pirate Port of Bermuda? We just passed there! And there was no need for an introducer there, changing the ship is one of their main sources of income!"

"How...you can see my thoughts!" Henrik was shocked!

Lu Yuan changed the topic without comment, "If you can only provide such a suggestion, I will give you 50,000 pesos! If you participate in the transformation and the results can satisfy me, I will consider increasing the bonus of up to 500,000 pesos."

The big number that Lu Yuan threw made Henrik swallow his saliva. He scratched his gray hair awkwardly. Seeing Lu Yuan close his eyes directly and posing for refusal to bargain, he could only agree helplessly. "Okay, we'll make a deal! You should know that I'm going to return to the UK in the future. An old man like me needs a happy and rich retirement life. There is really not much 500,000 pesos..." Looking at Lu Yuan's gradually frowning brows, Henrik could only stop his longing and said it readily.

"I know that I can go into the Bermuda waterway and be able to set out at any time."

"Yeah," Lu Yuan nodded, "If you need it, I will go find you."

After Henrik left, Lu Yuan turned his gaze to John.

"I can't command both the gunner and the musketeer," John admitted very directly, "You need to recruit a new adjutant."

Lu Yuan rubbed his forehead. He had no connections in the Caribbean. Edward, the only brother who could pull into the bowl, ran away now and was missing. Where to go to find the musket officer.

"Do you have any way?" Lu Yuan could only try to ask. As the ship grows bigger and bigger, the number of sailors on the ship has exceeded 400. These people can no longer be managed as extensively as before, and they can directly divide them into stormtroopers and gunners. Now these people need to be subdivided into musket teams, stormtroopers, sailors, attendants, gunners, porters... Each of them requires the appointment of special adjutants.

"I used to have a colleague..." John felt a little embarrassed because he recommended this person, which was originally the purpose of his visit today. "He is a guy who commands muskets very well. But when he was in Port-au-Prince, I heard that he offended his superiors and is now at home..."

"Okay, John. I agree!" Lu Yuan interrupted him directly and agreed. As the first mate, John would better have some confidant subordinates, so that he can command. "But I want to take the boat to Bermuda, you need to recruit this yourself..."

"Hanfrey...Hanfrey Douglas!"

"Well, recruiting Hanfry Douglas, I can tell me what I need, I can only wish you a smooth journey."

"Thank you! Captain!" John took off his hat happily and bowed, "I hope you can understand that I have some relatives with his wife. Now I heard that he is not doing well alone in the Caribbean. If he can't send money back, his wife and daughter may not be able to live in the UK. Thank you very much for agreeing to my unreasonable request."

"Please pay some settlement fee first..."

"Thank you again!" John saluted another time, then walked backwards towards the door.

"Wait!" Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something, and he called John. He first looked up and thought for a while, then took out the space box and searched... a black pearl, a ballast stone, half a piece of blue jelly, and a few bottles of strange-looking potions... Finally, Lu Yuan finally found a note from the bottom. "Ah, that's it!"

He took it and handed it to John Walkman.
