Whether you want to gain a foothold anywhere, the first thing to do is to understand there first.

And this is what Zhang Heng has been busy with in recent days. He has traveled to every corner of the city of Nassau, and fishermen at the market, drunks in taverns, prostitutes on the street, black merchants on the exchange, of course And the pirates who can be seen everywhere in this city have had various kinds of pleasant or unpleasant communication.

In order to make the process easier, he had to spend 19 silver pesos, but the money was worth it. In return, he basically figured out the situation in Nassau City.

Many people regard pirates as a group of villains, hooligans, Barbarians who are out of civilized society, and speaking from a certain perspective. There is no problem with this secular view. People who become pirates have almost no clean body, so people also It would be natural to think that a city run by pirates is also full of chaos and sin.

But as far as Zhang Heng sees it, this view may be biased.

Indeed, throwing over 1000 pirates who can drink and fight, and energetic pirates in the same city, you can hardly expect them to be safe and not to cause trouble, which is why Nassau is always very lively every day, but if If you are willing to look more closely, not only focusing on those street fights or jealousy in front of the court, you may be able to see the order contained in them through the superficial chaos.

About 63 years ago, the first European immigrants set foot on the land here to build a fortress and city. In honor of King Charles, they initially called it Charles Town, but the island residents soon discovered that they were reclaiming the land honestly. He and fishing were far from taking advantage of bad weather to lure nearby ships to hit the reef, and then go up to grab property for money quickly, so most men on the island began to engage in piracy, and gradually, they were no longer satisfied with waiting for ships Unfortunately it hit the rocks and turned to take the initiative.

At the same time, because of the unique geographical environment of the Bahamas, it also attracted the attention of other pirates. The large and small islands here can help them hide and avoid the pursuit of warships. The pirates in the Caribbean 4 loot objectively also need a Base for supply and sale of stolen goods.

Nassau was born in this context, the name comes from a British prince, but ironically, it eventually turned into a pirate kingdom.

After years of continuous development, Nassau has formed a unique business system.

The pirates went to sea and ransacked, and sold the stolen goods to the black merchants on the island. These black merchants transported the thieves to the ports of Charleston, New York, Boston and other places through their own relations, turning them into legal goods , You can enjoy high profits with almost no risk.

This is the largest business on the island. Apart from this, other businesses are basically based on it, like those courts, casinos, and pubs earn Silver Coins that are distributed by pirates, and Appraisal Master is responsible for robbing pirates. The spoils of war came to evaluate the value. Some information vendors sold their merchant ship information in taverns. The fishermen villains here are a natural supplement to the sailors. There are also some bold weapon merchants and slave vendors.

Nassau does not have a nominal ruler. It is a parliamentary organization responsible for maintaining order. It consists of all kinds of people, including black merchants, captains of pirate ships, and landlords on the island … they jointly run the city.

Zhang Heng speculates that the so-called establishment criterion in the main task should be based on joining the parliament on the island, which is not easy. The big landlord can be ruled out first. These guys are basically the first batch to come to the island. The man, who owns his own plantation and private armed forces, is not realistic for him, who now has only 20 silver pesos for his family.

The road to becoming a black merchant is obviously more difficult, and it is almost impossible for a cargo ship carrying thieves to pass through the customs without a background in the upper society. In fact, there are many families behind the black merchants on the island. They are not small, they use the power of the family to roam the colonial governor ’s office and customs, bribe the officials there, and legalize smuggling. This is not something the ordinary person can do.

Therefore, in this circle, only the captain of the pirate ship seems to have certain operability.

But this is also not simple. Do n’t say that the historical famous pirates, even those who are unknown in this era, can commander a whole boat, let those unruly pirates obediently go out to sea, according to their own orders The action also has 2 brushes, and Zhang Heng knows that there are many more places to learn.

He was not in a hurry, although he had a lot to learn, but fortunately, he had plenty of time.

Four days later, the sea lion called all the crew and went to sea again to start her journey. This was also the first time that Zhang Heng embarked on this battleship. This 4-masted sailboat that once belonged to Fraser was in the entire Nassau harbour. One of the best pirate ships, with 3 artillery pieces, including 32 24-pound artillery pieces, and Eight Sects 9-pound artillery pieces, have an overwhelming firepower advantage over prey.

This time they received news that they were ready to loot a Dutch supply ship and a Spanish merchant ship.

Zhang Heng performed very well in the battle. He successfully rescued 3 companions with a short musket, which also made him further accepted by the pirates. Unlike Malvin, Zhang Heng did not run away after joining the Sea Lion, instead he Renting a house in Nassau instead of sleeping in a hotel, it seems that he is ready for permanent residence.

This also added a lot of points for him. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Heng made a request to Owen. He wanted the latter to teach him how to go into close combat. Zhang Heng had learned from other sailors that Owen was the best Blade Technique on this boat. pirate.

Owen used to be a promising young officer, but because something offended his head boss, the latter sent him to the most dangerous place to complete an impossible task. Owen killed his head in one go. Boss, after he had nowhere to go, he had to leave his hometown and ran to Nassau to become a pirate.

Unlike most pirates, Owen’s character is very upright, and he still retains a part of his style at the naval school, which makes him seem out of place at first, but once the pirates learn that he is a person, they are very willing to make friends, Especially every time he fought, he rushed to the forefront and won the favor of many people.

When the original sailor captain died on the ship, the pirates elected Owen as the new sailor captain.
