Chapter 1388 Golden Rum

"No, you heard it wrong. You are blaspheming. Royer Smith is an extremely cruel guy. According to rumors, one of his eyes was smashed by the musket from the opposite side, and He dug out one of his own eyeballs with a knife, stuffed it into his mouth and ate it, how can such a person be called benevolent, you must have heard it wrong!"

"I didn't hear it wrong!" The two of them started fighting after speaking.

Such things are not uncommon in the port of Tortuga, where fights often occur because of quarrels, and gun battles are more common because of fights. This is a chaotic place.

Zeng Yunfeng walked on the pier and shook his head.He disdains the chaos in Tortuga Port or the freedom that Jack Sparrow said.

However, it is not easy to interfere without authorization. It is precisely because of this that the pirate port can mix dragons and snakes, and it also has a lot of room for maneuver. If it is a regular port, it will not give pirates too many opportunities.

For example, in terms of tax collection, the Port of Tortuga is a completely tax-free port where people can trade freely, of course it should be those merchants who are not afraid of death.

Because the transactions here are not just transactions, they can even turn into robbery. Merchants without certain strength dare not dock here, and it will definitely be a nightmare.

Walking to the center of the port, there are singing, dancing, and constant laughter. There are also the sound of cracking wine bottles and the sound of punching and fighting from time to time. You can also hear bursts of cheers from eating melons. .

Of course, most of these people are pirates and sailors, and some are prostitutes screaming and cheering, as if life and death are not happy if the two sides do not fight each other?

There are too many such things in Tortuga, and you can even pick up some drunks on the side of the road who don't know where to go, and just dump them in the mud.

Zeng Yunfeng hated the road conditions here. It was precisely because this was not a tax-collecting port that there was no one to maintain these infrastructures.

So most of the roads are muddy roads, especially on rainy days. If you walk for five minutes, a thick layer of mud will accumulate on the soles of your feet, and your shoes will be two or three times heavier than before.

The so-called free port management is usually disorder and chaos, and the same is true in the port. No one collects taxes, no one manages the ships in the port, and no one takes care of the docks. All these are allowed to develop freely, so the port is also dilapidated. soon.

Seeing this, Zeng Yunfeng shook his head. This should have been a very good free trade port. Although there is no need to collect taxes, it is possible to grab some profits through the prosperity of the port to re-nourish the port and make this free port become more prosperous. more prosperous.

But these pirates never stood up and thought about this issue. They just spent money like water here, but they didn't bring a new look to this place.

In Zeng Yunfeng's mind, people can be pirates and enjoy disorder, chaos and freedom, but it doesn't mean that they should watch this place being swallowed up by time and slowly becoming dilapidated.

If the port is not repaired, there will be problems when the ship docks. If the road is not repaired, the transportation of goods will become very unsmooth. If the environment is not taken care of, this gold selling cave will become a rotten mud pit, which will smell bad Dirty and messy.

As soon as Zeng Yunfeng arrived at the port, he met a person at the port. This person was none other than Gris Allen.

"Captain, you are back."

"Why did you come to Tortuga?" Zeng Yunfeng nodded, and went to a direction of the pier, which was an area he had marked out separately as the residence of the White Iron Pirates, although he only had three ships now.

He is so strong in this place, and the resident is quickly taken care of.

In less than a month, the residence of the White Iron Pirates had become the busiest place in the port. There were drinks, ironware and various weapons for sale. Of course, brothels and casinos were indispensable, but these were outsourced.

Zeng Yunfeng didn't have the energy to take care of these messy things.

And the ones who earn the most are undoubtedly the casinos and bars. As for the flesh and blood business, there is a question mark.

All the sailors who come here will visit one place, that is the bar, and then the weapon shop, no matter which pirate wants to change weapons here, whether it is a cannon, a gun, or even a variety of sabers, they are all sold here.

Long ones and short ones, big ones and small ones, powerful ones, and small ones are all here, but there are not many of them.

Where did the original weapons come from?Of course it was stolen, could it be that Zeng Yunfeng could do it himself.

First, Zeng Yunfeng didn't have so many material sources, so he couldn't make weapons by himself. Second, he didn't have so many people, so it took a lot of effort to make weapons.

He is also very short of necessary manpower, and now he can only rely on robbing, and the pirates in the Caribbean Sea, which were about to be wiped out, have turned into chaos again because of the arrival of the White Iron Pirates.

In the tavern, Jack Sparrow raised his glass and gulped down the rum. After taking a sip, he let out a big breath, "It's a pleasure, it's a pleasure." He wiped the wine stains on his beard.

Gibbs answered from the side: "This is the most popular rum here, and it is said that it was brought by the White Iron Pirates. It is the best-selling rum here. If you can dance a pirate dance after drinking, maybe you will be able to sober up in five or six hours, it is really the best thing."

Gibbs said while smacking his mouth and said: "There is a better wine called golden rum by sailors, but golden rum is too expensive, its price is the same as gold, Royer Smith is a gold-swallowing fiend, and with a bottle of wine he swindled the sailors out of their money."

"But these sailors came into his tavern one by one like flies, and offered their money, and now even this tavern is selling golden rum."

"Hey, according to them, if you don't drink a glass of golden rum in your life, you don't count as a pirate, and your life will be in vain."

Jack Sparrow raised his eyebrows and said, "Is the golden rum you mentioned really that delicious?" He snapped his fingers, "Dylan, bring me a glass of golden rum."

The bartender quickly brought a glass of golden rum to Jack Sparrow, and Jack Sparrow was a little fascinated by the smell of the wine, and then said: "Royes Smith is still a little capable, at least this wine is very good, it smells It’s intoxicating.” As he spoke, Jack Sparrow took a big sip from his wine glass, but Gibbs next to him just sucked his teeth, and with just this sip of wine, at least five shillings were gone.
