Savior Simulator

The ruling class of the Fijian Kingdom has not learned its lesson so far and is still stubbornly sending more troops to the New World in an attempt to suppress the intensifying independence movement and maintain the colonial empire and the global trade system derived from it.

Musk is not optimistic about the prospects of war in the New World.

The sovereign nation crossed the ocean and went on an expedition, but the rebel party received support from locals and even foreign forces. If it continued to be consumed, it would be a matter of time before it lost this colony.

It would be better to stop the war and stop the bleeding as soon as possible, de facto recognize the independence of the colonies, and strive through negotiations to get the colonial government to recognize at least nominally that King Fijian is still the head of state of the colonies.

Musk did not want to expose his political leanings in front of people he had just met, so he changed the subject and asked Captain Dantès about a private matter.

"Mr. Captain, you are a Hailan man and are very familiar with the local trade industry. Do you recognize a man named Francisco Corleone?"

Captain Dantes was stunned for a moment and looked at him hesitantly: "In Hailan, this name is too common. Which Francisco Corleone are you referring to?"

"I heard that he has been involved in the shipping trade and has also been involved in the insurance industry. He is about 50 years old and always wears a platinum ring set with sapphire iris on his hand."

After listening to Musk's description, Dantès frowned, seeming to be trying to remember something, but finally shook his head with a wry smile.

"Sorry, the information you provided is too vague. I can't remember this person at the moment. By the way, why are you asking about this person?"

"My father has an unsettled account with Mr. Corleone, and I want to talk to him about it." Musk replied calmly.

"Excuse me for being rude, who is your father?"

"Leonardo Justice, do you recognize him?"

"Leonardo Justice..." Captain Dantès murmured to himself, his face suddenly turned strange, "Is he Mr. Justice who is in the tea trade?"

"It's my father." Musk noticed the change in the captain's expression, and his heartstrings couldn't help but tighten. "Did my father have any dealings with you during his lifetime?"

Captain Dantès hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Mr. Justice, do you remember the tea ship that bankrupted your father? I was the first mate on that ship. Oh my God, it was a nightmare to think back on it!"

"The mob from the colony rushed onto our ship, opened all the boxes filled with tea leaves, and pushed them into the sea. The fine tea leaves floated on the sea like water plants."

"At that time, I and the sailors on the ship tried to stop the mob from committing an attack, but we were beaten up and almost died!"

Captain Dantès wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said to Musk with lingering fear: "I'm sorry that I failed to protect your father's goods at the beginning, and I also regret his subsequent misfortune."

"Of course I can't blame you, Captain. You have fulfilled your obligations. I only blame my father for his bad luck. Of course, what is even more abominable is my father's business partner Francisco Corleone. If he hadn't taken the money If I run away and leave the huge debt to my father to carry alone, I won't end up in despair and commit suicide..."

Musk couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Mr. Dantès, you have many friends in Hailan and are familiar with the place. Could you please take the time to help me investigate the current whereabouts of Francisco Corleone?"

Faced with the young man's expectant gaze, Dantès hesitated for a moment, as if he had something to hide. It wasn't until Umberto came over that he nodded and said he would try his best.

After finishing this conversation, the cargo ship "Good Luck" blew its whistle and began its half-month voyage.

It was Claire's first time to experience long-distance sailing. When she first boarded the ship, she felt that everything was new and interesting, and she was very excited.

And when the freighter sailed into the open sea and was hit by wind and waves, the deck began to bump and rise. Claire's face became ugly. First she covered her forehead and complained of dizziness, and then she vomited.

It was obvious that the poor redhead was seasick.

Umberto, Musk, Lisa and Paul had not experienced such intense seasickness and thought it was just a minor problem and would be fine after a while of getting used to it.

Claire thought so too. After taking the seasickness medicine provided by Captain Dantès, she returned to the cabin and lay down to rest.

The next morning, Musk noticed that she looked listless and sick.

When I asked her what was wrong, I learned that her seasickness was okay, but she had another symptom of insomnia.

"The hammock on the ship is so terrible! I lay on it and my body kept swinging from side to side with the hammock. I couldn't help but worry about falling out. As a result, I didn't sleep well all night!" Claire complained angrily.

"Isn't that right, Sister Claire? I think the hammock is like a cradle. I fall asleep when I rock it. It's very comfortable!" Lisa said she couldn't understand.

"When you were performing in the circus, you were not afraid of dancing on a wire suspended in mid-air. The hammock was only three feet above the ground. How could you be so worried about falling?"

Gao Fei also felt incredible.

"The devil knows why, maybe I was born not suitable for sailing!" the red-haired girl said angrily.

Although she had many discomforts, she did not regret participating in this ocean voyage. She optimistically believed that the difficulties were only temporary and that she would be able to regain her energy as soon as the ship docked.

A week passed like this, and Claire finally got used to life on the sea. However, she caught a cold on the morning of the day when the "Good Luck" arrived at the stopover of this trade route - Molasses Island. She had a high fever and kept coughing.

Originally, everyone had already discussed that while the ship was docked and unloading, they would go to the island to play for an afternoon, have dinner and come back.

Now Claire is sick. After Lisa's treatment, she has improved, but she is still very weak and can only stay on the ship to recuperate.

At this time, Umberto made a decision that touched Claire very much - to stay on the ship to take care of her.

As for Musk, Lisa and Paul, they still went to the island to play according to the original plan.

"Don't go too far, be careful not to get lost, and come back early." Umberto reminded the three young people.

"Mr. Esposito, I'm on vacation on Molasses Island and I'm very familiar with the environment here. I'll be a guide for Musk and Lisa, so you can rest assured!" Paul Porter patted his chest and promised.

Umberto was not at ease with this frivolous young nobleman, and he reminded Musk and Lisa: "Don't meddle in other people's business in unfamiliar places. If someone picks on you, hide if you can. Come back as soon as possible, and I will help you deal with the subsequent troubles."

"Don't worry, Brother Umberto, we will be careful." Musk said solemnly.

It's the end of the month, book friends who have monthly tickets, please support me, thank you very much!
