Chapter 336 Nationality

From Paphos to Nicosia, just walk along the A6 highway. The whole journey is about 160 kilometers, and it takes more than an hour to arrive.

The Mercedes-Benz S600 bulletproof car runs on the highway at a speed close to 100 mph. Thanks to the car's own weight of 5.3 tons, the car runs extremely smoothly on the highway.

Yang Jing was sitting in the spacious back seat, Ge Ge snuggled into Yang Jing's arms, and the two of them looked at the post together.

Henry Boardman, a great pirate active in the Caribbean Sea in the early eighteenth century, nicknamed 'Sea Serpent', was a Welsh native of England. It is said that he once worked on the same British slave ship as 'Black Baron' Bartholomew Roberts Later, the two were captured together by the great pirate Davis, and the two joined Davis' pirate team together.

Henry Boardman is ruthless, but he is very proficient in naval warfare. If he hadn't injured his right leg in a battle, which made it difficult to walk on his right leg, perhaps Davis would not have promoted Bartholomew Roberts to his His left and right hands, but this Henry Boardman who is as poisonous as a sea snake.

Later, Davis was killed by the Portuguese, and Bartholomew Roberts took over Davis's pirate team, and Henry Boardman immediately became Bartholomew Roberts' right-hand man and number one military adviser. It is said that Henry Boardman planned Bathalomew's surprise attack on Port Teresa.

It was only after Bartholomew conquered Teresa Port that the figure of Henry Boardman suddenly disappeared. Some people said that he died in battle, and some said that he was quietly killed by Bartholomew. Some people said that he and Bartholomew couldn't get along and went to South America to start a new one. Anyway, during that nearly two years, Henry Boardman disappeared strangely.

However, just three months before Bartholomew died in that battle off the coast of Guinea, Henry Boardman suddenly appeared and became Bartholomew's right-hand man again. No one knows where Henry Boardman has gone for nearly two years, but what is certain is that Henry Boardman did not betray Bartholomew, nor did he die in battle.

On February 10, 1722, Bartholomew's pirate fleet encountered the British fleet off the coast of Guinea, and a fierce battle broke out between the two. During the battle, Bartholomew was killed by a piece of shrapnel in his throat. , but the pirates were not confused by Bartholomew's sudden death, because at the critical moment, Henry Boardman stood up and became the backbone of the pirates. Under the leadership of Henry Boardman, the pirates escaped the attack of the British Navy and successfully entered the South Atlantic Ocean.

It’s just that man is not as good as God. Henry Boardman, who led the pirates to enter the South American waters, unexpectedly encountered a rare hurricane in the South Atlantic. Although it was only a first-level hurricane, it was not something the pirates’ wooden boats could withstand. . In the end, among the huge pirate team consisting of dozens of pirate ships, only two ships survived the sinking. The other ships, including Henry Boardman's flagship 'Royal Fortune', all sank forever in the cold deep sea of ​​the South Atlantic Ocean. under

After reading the post, the two looked at each other.

Grid took a long breath and said: This 'Sea Snake' Boardman is really unlucky. It is not likely that a hurricane will form in the South Atlantic Ocean in a few years. I didn't expect him to catch up once it formed.

The South Atlantic is very strange, hurricanes are rarely formed, and in some years even a tropical cyclone cannot be formed. Compared with the North Atlantic across the equator, the South Atlantic is like a delicate and quiet little girl, far inferior to the North Atlantic north of the equator. The Atlantic Ocean is so violent that more than ten or even dozens of hurricanes are formed in a year.

Of course, the fact that there are few hurricanes in the South Atlantic does not mean that there are no hurricanes. Unfortunately, this Mr. Boardman encountered a hurricane in the South Atlantic, and his army was wiped out.

I didn't expect that this Bodman with the nickname of 'Sea Serpent' was actually Basha Luomyu's right-hand man and a fellow townsman. If what is said in this post is true, then the nautical chart in your hand is worth it. Deliberate. Grid continued.

Huh? Yang Jing just burst out a question word from his nose.

It's not easy. If what's said in this post is true, then this Mr. Boardman disappeared for nearly two years after Bartholomew raided Teresa Port, then we Can it be guessed that Bartholomew robbed the entire port of Teresa and gained huge wealth, but there is no place to hide the wealth, so Bartholomew arranged for his most trusted Mr. Boardman to go to These treasures are hidden in the extreme northern region, but in terms of the navigation technology of that era, it is not so easy to reach the extreme northern waters. It was normal for Boardman to spend nearly two years back and forth in that era. Except for the dozens of days at the end of summer, the northern sea area is navigable, and it is not navigable at other times.

Daughter-in-law, do you mean to say that the reason why this Mr. Boardman has disappeared for nearly two years is that he hid the treasure stolen by Bartholomew in the extreme north?

Grid nodded and said, Besides this reason, I really can't think of any other reason to explain what Boardman has been doing for nearly two years.

After a pause, Grid continued: And people in later generations know that Bartholomew's pirate ship once reached the waters of Newfoundland, but I think this is a bit unreliable, after all, Bartholomew was at his peak. It only lasted about four years. During these four years, he was busy enough to control the Caribbean Sea, West African Sea, and South American Sea. Then why did he go to such a remote place as Newfoundland? There It’s not where the North Atlantic route passes, even if Bartholomew controls the North Atlantic, he should also control the sea area where the North Atlantic route passes, instead of going to a place like Newfoundland, where birds don’t shit and chickens don’t lay eggs!”

Yang Jing nodded slightly and said: The only explanation is that the pirate team that appeared in the waters of Newfoundland was not the pirates led by Bartholomew himself, but the pirates led by Henry Boardman. As for this pirate team Why did I go there? The nautical chart in my hand is the explanation—they went to the extreme north to hide treasure!

That's it. Only this reason can explain why these pirates went to such a remote sea area. Grid said excitedly, clenched his fists.

Husband, when the weather gets warmer and the waterways in the extreme northern seas are open, let's go treasure hunting according to this nautical chart!

Okay, as long as you like to go, then let's go treasure hunting. Yang Jing said cheerfully.

By the way, Gege, why do you know so much about that Pirate King like Basha? It's understandable if Chris and the others know so well. After all, Americans, especially American men, have a pirate dream in their hearts, but you...

She glared at Yang Jing in disbelief, Why, we women can't understand pirates? Besides, do we need to know more about Basalome Roberts? Yang Jing, have you read One Piece yet?

One Piece? Why should I watch that thing? I'm not a child. As soon as the words came out, Yang Jing realized that something was wrong, and quickly apologized: Daughter-in-law, you know I didn't mean it that way.

Gege waved his hand generously and said: It's okay, I knew you would definitely not like this kind of comics. But I was very fascinated by One Piece for a while when I was a child. In One Piece, it was recognized by the world government The tyrant Bartholomew Bear, one of the famous pirates Shichibukai, was designed based on Bartholomew Roberts.

Yang Jing made a look of being completely defeated, Well, my dear Princess Baiyugege, you have completely defeated me!

The flowers and branches trembled with a giggle.

Laughing all the way, I arrived in Nicosia without knowing it.

In the evening, they stayed at the hotel booked by Lin Dan. The next morning, Yang Jing and Gege came to the Cyprus Immigration Office again and completed all the procedures in more than two hours.

Of course, Yang Jing still needs to go through a series of procedures to cancel his Huaxia nationality after returning to China, but that is not a troublesome thing.

In other words, when Yang Jing signed the last name on those materials, he has officially become a Cypriot.

After completing these procedures, Yang Jing felt a little empty in his heart for a moment, as if he had become a child without a home.

But he quickly buried this emotion deep in his heart.

No way, in order to prove the loophole of that guess, Yang Jing had to make this choice. If the guessed loophole is true, then compared to the restrictions imposed on him by the space-time paradox, Yang Jing feels that it is worthwhile to lose his Chinese nationality.

To take a step back, even if the loophole in that guess is not true, the worst case is to restore Huaxia's nationality. Yang Jing is very clear that although it is difficult to restore Huaxia's nationality, it is for ordinary people. For a billionaire like him, no country in the world will reject such a billionaire as their country of citizens.

Huaxia is no exception.

Not to mention that I will invest huge sums of money in my hometown, and will continue to search for mineral resources such as oil fields for Rongbao Mining. So as long as you want to restore your Chinese nationality, it should not be difficult.

In the evening, Mr. Papalokas and his wife attended Yang Jing's invitation. The place where Yang Jing treated guests was the only Michelin two-star restaurant in Nicosia. Although the consumption was not high, it could be seen that Papalokas and his wife were very happy.

After this meal, all the affairs of Yang Jing in Cyprus are basically over. In the small town of Pissouri, he bought a holiday villa for US$8.7 million and successfully obtained Cypriot citizenship.

After everything here is done, Yang Jing and Gege are ready to fly back to China. It’s okay if you don’t go back, Mr. Yang’s youngest son, Yang Zhengyu, called Yang Jing and said to meet up as soon as possible to discuss the development of the Grand Canal
