The sudden romance was wiped out by the sudden heavy topics. In the following time, Lorraine and Henna didn't have any more conversations, holding each other, going around and around until they came to the busy dock.

What Lorraine didn't expect was that his unexpected encounter today hadn't ended yet.

The majestic Lion was moored high on the bow at berth No. 1 of the pier. Spiritual sailors stood in line. The line was in front. Shaq, who had not been seen for many years, was shaking hands with a noble gentleman on the embankment to say goodbye.

The place where Lorraine appeared happened to be the extension of his vision.

The eyes of the Drake brothers collided in the air, and Lorraine froze for a while, clearly reading the meaning of Shaq's eyes: [Wait obediently].

Waiting for you first...

Lorraine snorted and turned to walk to the other side of the dock.

Berth No. 9 holds the Hyla Lorraine snatched from Lake Pontchartrain. As the flagship of the Caribbean Offshore Caravan, this ship is the ship Leonard took.

After walking halfway, a young captain led a dozen sailors in a trot and chased him, his face flushed and his breathing was short of breath.

"Der...President Drake!"

Lorraine had no choice but to stop, with a cold face, watching the captain get closer and closer.

"President Drake, I am a captain of the New World Fleet, storm officer Tyra Amani of the HMS Lion."

"Captain Amani, it's nice to meet you."

"You don't seem to be happy at all..." Amani gave a wry smile, stood at attention, and saluted, "President, take the liberty to come, mainly because the admiral wants to see you."

"If you call it, you will go, the noble master of Tavistock is still as arrogant as before." Lorraine opened his mouth and smiled, "Tell Admiral Drake, please, the Chamber of Commerce is busy, Lorraine. Drake has no time to accompany, please forgive me."

How come these brothers are like this!

The honest Amani almost didn't fall in tears, and resisted the urge to tie Lorraine to him in a low voice: "President, just see the admiral. It won't be long. The admiral will have a training meeting in the afternoon..."

"Time is money, Mr. Captain, just as you stand in front of me now, you are wasting my money."

"This... waste? How can it be a waste of money to talk to a rear admiral! Did you know? The invitation letter to the admiral’s reception is hard currency throughout the Caribbean. At the auction last time, a letter sold for more than one hundred pounds. !"

"Oh! It's a great honor." Lorraine suddenly realized, "Disrespect, leave."

…

It was easy to say goodbye to Mr. Governor, who was not involved, Shaq rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, his eyes wandering around Amani.

"Admiral..."

"I came back alone?"

"President Drake said, seeing you are busy, dare not..."

"Is it arrogant?"

Amani's face paled: "Um, admiral, anyway, there is still more than half an hour before leaving the port..."

"No need." Shaq boarded the board blankly, without stopping for a moment. "He knows me well."

…

Under the boat of the Hyla, Lorraine saw Leonard and Alves waiting beside him, which surprised him a little.

"Alvis is here too?"

The tall and heroic Alves smiled embarrassedly: "Although the captain didn't plan to see me, after all, I have a job, so I boldly acted for personal gain."

"Fake public for private benefit?" Lazy man listens to the book

Leonard, who was getting more and more familiar with his old temperament, patted Alves on the arm.

"The ocean-going fleet was formally formed. According to the previous discussion between President Parker and I, Admiral Cortrens was appointed as the ocean-going admiral, so that the position of the offshore admiral was vacant. Alves was originally the deputy admiral, and he likes to be in Running at sea is my duty."

"It turned out to be a promotion." Lorraine smiled and stretched out his hand, "Congratulations."

Alves smiled brighter and brighter: "This is all the captain's help."

Lorraine always didn't like to leave compliments in front of her own people, so she waved her hand.

"Leonard, will there be any changes in the commerce during this time?"

"The ocean-going fleet set sail. The first batch of three ships, the original Andes, Lucky Horseshoe, and Jupiter. Of course, the names of the ships have been changed. The French are very satisfied."

"This is where Chuck excels."

"For the Havana peace talks, the Chamber of Commerce was invited in the last three days. President Parker attended on your behalf and accepted the thanks from the French. As a thank you, we got all the business permits of the French New World colonies and enjoyed the privileges of the Fort de France registered chamber of commerce. , A 30% tax reduction in the Pan-Caribbean region."

"A flashy thing." Lorraine narrowed his mouth uninterestingly. "France is not England. The essence of Pan-Caribbean is in the Gulf of Mexico. The furs and minerals of New France are in the entire New France. Now the British merchant ships running that line is tantamount to death, 30% of the time. Tax benefits are equivalent to nothing."

Leonard was helpless and proud: "In fact, President Parker originally asked for the right of freedom of navigation, but...the French were worried that you would smash their port and couldn't talk about it, so they replaced it with the current embroidered pillow."

"Sure enough." Lorraine shook his head clearly, and received information from Hina. "This time I called you here very urgently. I received a military information in New Orleans, and I need you to confirm the authenticity. The original is verified."

Leonard turned a few pages carefully: "Very internal information..."

"Can it be done?"

"At least two days, and I have to go to the Royal Navy Dockyard to sit in person."

"be careful."

Leonard nodded solemnly.

Seeing that the official confession was over, the good man squeezed a narrow smile on his face: "Captain, that is the famous Lion, right?"

"What? Do you want to take a free boat?"

"I'm not crazy..." Leonard rolled his eyes in horror, UU reading www. uukanshu.com "If you use their admiral's boat to spy on the core military situation, no matter how good the relationship is, you will have to hang me on the fort to prove my innocence."

"What's the matter?"

"I think it's rare for the captain to meet his brother, isn't it..."

"Don't talk too much." Lorraine raised his eyebrows and patted Leonard's shoulder, his voice dripping softly, "Don't talk too much, old stuff."

The most important event in Hamilton officially unfolded on August 6, four days before Lorraine’s final sailing to New Orleans.

And because it takes two days to bring the results back to New Orleans at the speed of the water droplets of Azure, the time left for Leonard and Lorraine is actually stretched.

This made Lorraine more and more anxious to arrange enough Bermuda sailboats inside the Chamber of Commerce.

The two sides said goodbye at the pier. Leonard immediately visited a certain district councillor in a horse-drawn carriage. He took the Shanghai Navy's supply boat before falling into the night and sneaked into the heavily guarded Royal Navy Dockyard that occupies the entire Northern Ireland Island.

At the same time, Olves entered the exchange on the grounds of coordinating logistics, and Lorraine and Hina returned to the beach house to wait. Weilan Waterdrop replaced all crew members and transferred to the villa’s private dock at any time. In the incident, the communication between China and China was taken over by the old man under Alves, and no more news was revealed.

One night, one day, quietly.

On the night of August 7, a panic knock on the door resounded in the villa. Henna looked gloomy and opened the door, welcoming the chaotic Alves.

"Calm down!" Hina scolded softly, "What's the matter?"

"Ms. Yesra, old Leonard..." Alves gasped intermittently. "Someone from the Navy came to the exchange this morning and said Leonard had entered the plane and was discovered by the patrolling sailors. Now... I'm already in jail!"
