Lakes and mountains, boundless sky and sea.

The lake and the sea have different scenery, even the vastness of Lake Nicaragua has a border.

The edge of the field of vision is on Ometepe Island. There are two towering volcanic cones on the big island in the middle of the lake.

The remains of these two volcanoes are the parents of Lake Nicaragua. I don’t know how many thousands of years ago the volcanic eruption created the Rivas Isthmus that separated the lake and the sea. It also created many starry green islands on the lake, making the lake look like a picturesque surface. .

The tour of the lake on the Saint Caroline has been going on for half a day.

The sun was high in the middle of the sky, Lorraine and others had lunch with Mara, and finally it was time to talk about business.

Parasols and lounge chairs were set up on the deck. Lorraine and Mara were seated on the left and right. Mara crampedly hoped that Henna would go to the back deck to enjoy the scenery. From this alone, Lorraine knew that he was not good at stealing dogs and rats. Of activities.

But Lorraine still cooperated with him by letting Hannah go to the back deck, and let Leif and Barto protect them, so that Hannah could not fall down due to the bumps on the boat.

Mara let out a long sigh of relief.

It took him a while to regain his dignity, beckoned for two glasses of wine, and gently pushed towards Lorraine.

"Havana's white rum, the world's best taste."

Lorraine toasted his thanks.

From the perspective of social etiquette, this time is Lorraine's speaking round. He should express his gratitude to Mara just right, and at the same time be flattered by his attention and hospitality over the past two days.

Only in this way can Mara say the classic prologue "I am very optimistic about you".

However, Lorraine didn't say anything, tasting the wine, leaning on the chair, maybe the angle of the parasol was not set properly, he even closed his eyes comfortably.

Mara was a bit hard to get off, he hesitated for a long time before testing the opening: "Ruhr, you are not curious why I am so diligent to you?"

"Huh?" Lorraine Yi opened his eyes, "Isn't it because we see each other as we did?"

"Uh...Of course, we saw it right away..."

"Great." Lorraine patted his chest exaggeratedly. "I thought I wished that we had friendship."

"Friendship is real!" Mara confirmed in a strong tone, "Friendship is real, but..."

"but?"

Mara immediately sat upright: "Ruhr, do you know why I was sent to San Carlos?"

"Isn't it a normal assignment and transfer?"

"Assignment and transfer?" Malahhaha laughed, "My dear Ruhr, my uncle is the admiral of the garrison fleet, how can normal transfers send me to the desolate San Carlos!"

"Your family is a rich man and a plantation owner. You probably don't know the stubbornness in the army."

Lorraine also straightened up and looked at Mara with interest.

Mara finally found the rhythm he had imagined, and with a big wave of his hand, he pointed in the direction of San Carlos.

"There is San Carlos, a fortress in the rainforest, a barren town, and an inexhaustible gold mine in our hands."

"From June to November each year, in just five months, goods worth millions of octagonal gold coins will travel between the two oceans through the small San Juan River. They all have to pay taxes in San Carlos. Half of the tax revenue of 10,000 gold octagonal coins belongs to the king and half remains in the locality."

"Who will control the considerable amount of money? In theory, of course, it is the local civilian army. The waste is the force of this town, responsible for city defense and trade order on the San Juan River."

"However, the fact is that they cannot protect this fortress and this important tax card. Just like last October, it was our **** battle with the grenadiers that locked a large pirate regiment with the intent of looting in the Holy Land. At the source of the Juan River, the fort on the city wall has the opportunity to send the ferocious pirates to the bottom of the river and feed the piranhas that will never feed!"

Lorraine heard unexpected information for the first time: "Pirate regiment? Did you wipe out a pirate regiment last year?"

"Yes! A powerful pirate group consisting of five ships is said to be the pirate king of the Caribbean. According to the information seized from their flagship, that pirate is the famous [Fly Thomas]."

"You actually killed a pirate king silently...Isn't there a canonical punishment?"

"The corpse was not found in the capital, and we can't even promote it." Mara shrugged regretfully. "But we captured the fifth-level flagship named Shengshi, and she stopped in the port of Grenada. We took the ship, The grenadier took the gold coins, and San Carlos took the other gains on the boat, and everyone was happy."

"That's...it's a shame."

Lorraine desperately digested the unexpected news.

Thomas the Fly, the only one of the six existing pirate kings, died silently on the San Juan River, and the Brotherhood at Sea seemed to know nothing about it.

The first thing Lorraine thought of was Thomas' pirate king token.

There is no publicity, no announcement, this thing that is enough to make the pirate world crazy is probably still lying in a corner of the commander's residence and no one cares about it.

In other words, you won't be thrown away as rubbish, right?

Lorraine had an urge to wipe his sweat. He looked at Mara with enthusiasm in his eyes, and his mind had already drifted out of the clouds.

"Ruhr? Dear Ruhr? My friend?"

Lorraine was startled for a moment, and cut a smile in the blink of an eye: "I'm listening, Mr. Major. Although you didn't say it clearly, I know you want to use my raw face to do something. The reason is... probably comparable to San Carlos. Related to income."

"Damn, you are actually smarter than you look!" Mara cleared his throat, "Ruhr, you know? Because the three troops together guarded the peace of San Carlos, so from the beginning of the establishment of San Carlos, between us There has been an agreement that the fortress commander will control the local profits, and the commander’s term of office will be every year. On May 5th of each year, the governor and admiral will be appointed according to the status of the three troops."

"May 5th? That's not..."

"It's less than a month!" Mara approached Lorraine and lowered his voice. "Last year's appointed party was the civilian army. This year, because of the pirate eradication, he will be re-elected."

"That's why my uncle sent me over. I need to make them make a difference. Some trivial problems show their stupidity and incompetence."

"for example?"

"For example, a company commander was playing with fire in a warehouse storing ammunition, accidentally causing the ammunition warehouse to explode..."

Lorraine raised his eyebrows: "This will cause a lot of casualties, right? And the ammunition depot..."

Mara waved his hand indifferently: "Some lowly pioneers, it is easy to add, not to mention their own accident, and they will die if they die."

His eyes burned: "Moreover, detonating the ammunition depot does not necessarily cause much casualties~lightnovelpub.net~ There are two ammunition depots in the fortress, one in the center of the barracks, the other in the east city, at the corner of the southeast city wall. "

"You are really thoughtful..." Lorraine hesitated, "Mr. Major, I want to know what I can get from it. You know, if this incident is exposed, my behavior is no different from treason."

"You will have my friendship, dear Ruhr." Mara sneered coldly. "The friendship of a future fortress commander, the friendship of a young officer who has plenty of room for growth and is highly used."

"It seems I have to agree."

Lorraine closed his eyes again, moved and helpless, like a helpless **** who was tempted and threatened at the same time.

"Don't hesitate, Ruhr, it's easy for you. I never misunderstand people."

Mara ordered someone to change into the new wine, handed it to Lorraine's hand, and touched it lightly.

"Cheers to our long friendship in Japan."
