If the route is really cut off, the inventory and stock in Tortuga Port will be enough for him to use for a year or two at most.

After completely getting rid of the support of trade in various waterways, the population of Tortuga will also drop sharply. A small island will never be able to support a large population by itself.

And now these sailors in London, England are actually trapped on an island larger than Tortuga Port.

There are several islands in the British Isles. Only the islands in the southeast of Great Britain have a large area of ​​continuous flat land, while the north is more rugged mountains and hills, so there is nothing special about growing food here. Ideally, raising sheep is a more cost-effective way, so England often laughed at Wales and Scotland as country bumpkins, which had a lot to do with raising sheep.

There are often fist-sized stones in the hilly land, and it takes a lot of energy to cultivate the land there.

At this moment, it has to be said that the geographical conditions of the European continent are unique, the geographical conditions of the Central Plains are also unique, and the North American continent is a god-given place, which is simply the place where farming civilization should rise most.

But history is just a joke. Time is so ruthless. The North American continent did not give birth to a great civilization to rule the entire world. Instead, because it is too rich, people's lives have been limited to the original model.

It is possible for them to scatter a handful of seeds into the ground and survive. Similar to the African continent, they are divided into one tribe after another, and human society has not united against nature.

Therefore, no large civilized groups and city-states have been formed, and naturally they have no strength to resist these people from the Western world to explore the New World. To be precise, they are invasions.

After a huge thanksgiving event that lasted for a hundred years on Thanksgiving, the whole of North America turned into a howling hell.

In the next few centuries, how people discover the new continent will continue to be staged here. As for those damned aborigines, in their eyes, they shouldn't exist, because they discovered a brand new land.

Zeng Yunfeng's fingers gently pushed under his nose, a little uncomfortable with the turbid air here.

The moment Zeng Yunfeng opened the door and came in, some people's eyes fell on him.

Zeng Yunfeng was well dressed and wore a hat, he didn't look like a down-and-out sailor at all.

Everyone looked at him in a daze. When a person playing a musical instrument saw Zeng Yunfeng coming in, he hurriedly greeted him, "Man, are you here to interview sailors too? Captain Jack will welcome you."

He took a look at Zeng Yunfeng's height, and Zeng Yunfeng was a full head taller than him. He put down the small musical instrument in his hand that looked like a pipa and said, "Dude, what a coincidence that you came, there are more than a dozen of us If you come later, maybe you won't be able to board this legendary ship."

"Jack Sparrow's boat is not a boat that everyone can get on." He smiled and walked in front of Monkey King.

Zeng Yunfeng looked down at him, stretched out his left hand and said, "Johnny Brown!"

Zeng Yunfeng didn't say much, the person in front of him watched the tall Zeng Yunfeng say his name coldly, he was stunned for a while, and then he stretched out his left hand to shake him.

"Uh, hello, my name is Scott, welcome to come, sit down for a while, you can have an interview after a while, and you can also meet our captain!"

"Would you like a drink?"

Zeng Yunfeng took a look at the man who was not tall, wearing a broken leather hat, and holding a pipa-like instrument in his hand, and said, "Is there any golden rum?"

"Oh man, you can be kidding. You don't have to drink golden rum. Golden rum is a scarce thing here. If you want to drink golden old rum, it is at least aristocratic in London, England, or at least you have to drink it." Spend this amount!" He stretched out his hands and flipped them back and forth a few times.

Zeng Yunfeng raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that after traveling around the Caribbean Sea, the price of golden rum has doubled, and the price is ridiculously high.

Scott looked at the expression on Zeng Yunfeng's face, and said with a smile: "Don't be depressed, buddy, if you really want to drink, you have to pay for it yourself, Bill won't buy you a drink."

"There is no golden rum here, but there is wine. Would you like a glass?"

"Why not!" Zeng Yunfeng took off his hat and sat down at a table with candles lit.

Although it was broad daylight here, the dim indoor conditions made it necessary to light candles in the room.

Speaking of it, Zeng Yunfeng thought of an interesting story, that is, because Britain collects taxes heavily, there is even a window tax, so many people can only build as few windows as possible in order to avoid taxes, so the houses are transparent. The lighting is very poor, and it looks gloomy.

Even some rich people can only make some fake windows for castles and houses, and there is no way for light to pass through.

So when I see some rich people here, they can know how rich they are just by looking at how many windows they can open in their houses.

Only those who are not short of money can open a lot of windows, and the landlord of this kind of tavern is obviously not, so the lighting conditions here are very poor, so bad that you can only light candles, and some places inside are dark, only candles Twilight keeps people from doing things in the dark.

And these sailors who were drinking may be very immersed in this atmosphere. After all, looking at women by candlelight, the more beautiful they look, no matter what a woman looks like, no matter how much powder she puts on, she still looks good.

A glass of wine was served in front of Zeng Yunfeng. The wine glass was a wooden cup. This kind of wooden cup had a small mouth on the top and a large bottom, which looked like beer.

Zeng Yunfeng didn't care, picked up the wooden cup and took a sip, smacking his lips, the taste was not bad, but the astringency inside was still very strong.

At this time, I heard a room inside say: "Next!"

And a sailor opened the door from the inside, and said excitedly: "Haha, I have also applied for the job. Who wants to buy me a glass of wine too!"

The people next to him cheered as if they were sharing his joy, Zeng Yunfeng glanced at Scott, he shook his head and said, "Man, now it's your turn, go and meet our legendary captain, maybe he will fall in love with you Maybe."

Zeng Yunfeng picked up the hat and put it on his head, smiled, stood up and walked into the room, Scott exclaimed: "Wow, this guy is really a strong guy, if I meet him at sea, I will definitely not Surrender hesitantly, because it is too terrifying to face such an enemy."

Someone next to him said, "Hey, Scott, you better play your instrument, we need you!"

Scott smiled, sat casually on the steps of the stairs next to him, and played the pipa-like instrument in his hand, and the atmosphere of joy permeated again for a while.
