Yang Fan, set sail!

Theresa and her team did not delay too long, and the fleet began to return as planned.

The Miluo Island under Link was piloting the ship in front, followed by two passenger ships filled with mountain people.

The passenger ship was rented from the Sverak family, and the crew members used their own people.

The two passenger ships are equipped with only crew members who can maintain the minimum number of people sailing, and the sailors are guest stars of the mountain people.

To keep it confidential, Link had to do so, and the two passenger ships will be returned the next time the two parties traded.

Fortunately, Skull Island is not far from Miluo Island, and the journey is calm and the voyage ends in just two days.

The moment he got off the gangway and stepped onto Miluo Island again, Link felt extremely at ease, as if the island gave him a sense of belonging.

People who have been wandering on the sea for a long time have a kind of nostalgia for the land that ordinary people cannot understand.

After disembarking, Link directed everyone to unload the goods.

Not long after, the dedicated secretary arrived.

"This is our new member, Frank of Rodok, from the Old World."

The mountain people on the passenger ship got off the boat one after another and observed the strange island somewhat restrainedly on the berth dock.

Link called Frank and introduced him to each other.

"This is my secretary. Just call him Carl. He will lead you to familiarize yourself with this island later."

After saying that, he explained the origins of these mountain people to Carl.

After the items on the cargo ship were unloaded, Link asked Tony and others to store the cargo as soon as possible, and announced that a banquet would be held later to welcome the new companions.

"Did something happen on the island during the time I left?"

"Sir, I know how Manager Bob contacted the Duke."

"oh?"

Link and Carl were taking the mountaineering people to the manor. Because the mountaineering people were large, he chose to walk.

"How did he contact?"

"I was told by my servant two days ago that a carrier pigeon flew into the manor."

"Carry Pigeon?"

It turned out to be a carrier pigeon communication. Link once guessed whether Old Bob also had a magical item with the same effect as his bell for long-distance communication.

"Yes, sir, this is the news brought by the carrier pigeon."

Carl said, pulling a small thin roll of parchment from his pocket.

Link took it, spread it out, looking at the dense black handwriting on the pale yellow paper.

Carl explained the purpose of the paper to Link.

"The Duke will send a governor here next month?"

Link frowned and wondered if the Duke was already unable to bear the old Bob's greed behavior, so he sent the governor to control it.

"Sir, we must prepare in advance. If the governor takes office, there will definitely be personal guards to follow him."

Carl reminded.

"Especially those who come to investigate Old Bob will definitely have many guards.

Carl, have you ever known about these foreign governors, how many guards will be accompanied by these escorts?"

"As far as I know, the personal guards and accompanying guards are usually between a squadron and a brigade."

"That is to say, 50 to 250 people, according to the worst plan, two or three hundred professional soldiers."

Link thought while walking.

"Don't worry about these, I'll notify everyone of the meeting in the manor tomorrow."

Half an hour later, I arrived at the manor. Many long tables were placed on the open-air square in the manor, filled with food. Various processed foods purchased on the boat arrived first under the transport of the carriage.

Hundreds of mountain people were taken to the manor by Link and sat scattered under the guidance of their servants.

"No need to be restrained, you are the protagonists at today's banquet."

Link looked at the mountain people who were sitting on the table and chairs, looking cramped, and called Frank to ease the tension of the tribesmen.

Frank was somewhat flattered at Link's reaction.

After getting off the boat, the name and attitude of the people on the island towards Link made him realize that Link should be the owner of the island.

As a nobleman with such a large island, he treated the mountain people with courtesy, which made Frank, who was used to seeing the ugly faces of the nobles, still a little at a loss.

The mountain children on the seats are the happiest. They don’t care about these complicated things and only have delicious food on the table.

He reached out and held many pastries that he had never seen before, and put them carefully in his mouth and chewed them. He had never enjoyed the wonderful taste that he had spread in his mouth, making the innocentest smiles bloom on their faces.

Soon, the Vigia guys on the island also came to the banquet.

Link arranged for them to sit cross-seat with the mountain people.

Wine is the best tool to resolve strangeness.

It didn't take long before these mountain people and Vigya guys began to blush and call each other thickly, with their necks.

Link felt the lively atmosphere off the court, and turned around and played wine with Frank and others.

Finally, before he got drunk, he announced to the old friends of Miluo Island with his tongue that the mountain people had officially joined the "Milo Island Family".

At this point, Frank and his tribe finally agreed with Link.

Another night of hangover, Link, who was woken up by Carl, dragged him to the conference hall of the manor.

Several of his old men sat on the conference table in the hall.

Link sat down and looked at his subordinates who were also confused.

"Everyone wakes up! The banquet is over, it's time to talk about our current situation."

"Jon, oh, my most trusted subordinate, let's talk about the situation of those guys in these dungeons."

Link saw Jon's resentful gaze, and the failure to go to the Pirates Conference to meet the world was an eternal pain in his heart.

"Boss, that David's mouth is so smelly that he keeps cursing. I put him in the water prison and haven't visited him for two days. The others are almost gone."

"Have he scolded me?"

"Some, he scolds anyone."

"That's okay, keep locked up. Where is that Remy?"

"He said he was willing to trade ransom for freedom, if we could send him back to Nord."

"Oh, I think so beautifully. I'm not short of money now. What about the soldiers under their command? Are there anyone willing to be loyal to me?"

"It turned out that there were some, but later they didn't know where they heard that you killed Old Bob, so they didn't want to."

When Link heard this, he glared at Tony.

"Sir, most of these soldiers were recruited from the Duke's land, and their families and property were there.

After the death of old Bob, we are equivalent to declaring war with the Duke, and they cannot support us."

Carl explained on the side.

This completely cut off Link's intention to recruit surrendered troops.

"Then arrange them to do things, log wood, pave roads, and work hard labor at the docks. They can't let them eat my food for nothing!"

Link arranged for the mountaineering people to live on the plains inland Miluo Island. Because of the hot climate, simple wooden houses can meet their living needs.
