Our island owner is always playing dead

"Of course it's true!" Ye Limo emphasized again.

Ye Limo was also very happy to see Sorel so pleasantly surprised. He knew that Sorel would be very happy to hear such news.

It was the first time for the steady and mature Sorel to be so carried away, saying: "Your Majesty, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time. We finally have more than just Hope."

Ye Limo agreed, "Yes, we're going to have a new boat, and we're going to give the boat a new name."

Sharing this good news with Sorel made Ye Limo feel even happier. It seems that this is the meaning of sharing.

Saurel was very happy, and his face, which usually had no expression, was beaming at this time, and the joy was beyond words.

Ye Limo continued: "Sorrell, I will leave it to you to buy a new merchant ship. You can buy it from Mr. Zhongxi. Maybe he will give us some help for the sake of old acquaintances!"

Sorel said with a smile: "Yes, Your Majesty, I have talked with Mr. Nakashi several times, he appreciates you very much, I told him that you want to buy a new merchant ship, he is very supportive, and talked to me about different Merchant ships have different advantages and disadvantages, so I have some understanding of merchant ships. Now, you told me that I can buy a ship, and I already have some ideas in my mind.”

Ye Limo was very satisfied and said, "That's great, you did a good job, Sorel."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The butler brought snacks and juice, and Sorel ate it very unceremoniously. It was really not easy to eat such delicious food when going out to sea.

Ye Limo asked: "Saurel, I don't know how much you know about what Prince Gather did before? Are there any related rumors about them? Is there any similar news in the newspapers?"

Sorel is a smart person. The housekeeper said so before. Ye Limo felt this way even more after Sorel became the chief merchant. I believe that the smart Sorel will definitely pay attention to all kinds of news on the shore. I will definitely pay attention to inquire about Prince Gather.

Sorel swallowed the food in his mouth, and said: "I have indeed heard something, Your Majesty, there was a time in Yazhilin that there were several times more patrolling soldiers on the street than usual. I know, I must be looking for His Royal Highness Prince Gather again. And it should be an order issued by their king. On the other hand, I heard that Prince Alagu, who was once the king's favorite, has been left out in the cold, and the king has refused to see him. His Royal Highness."

Ye Limo couldn't help but frowned in thought, to the point of refusing to meet him, it meant that it was really serious.Members of the royal family want to see the king, even if it is a prince, they have to get the permission of His Majesty the king. Now the king refuses to see his favorite son. What happened to make the king so angry?

"Is there any more?" Ye Limo asked.

Sorel asked Ye Limo to wait a moment, and he asked his servant to fetch the newspaper he bought on the shore.

The heat island is far away from the mainland, and has not yet established diplomatic relations with other countries. If you want to know what is happening on the mainland, you must obtain information from newspapers issued by each country.Every time Sorel returns from overseas, he will bring a lot of newspapers to Ye Limo.

The newspapers were arranged according to different countries. Ye Limo found the newspapers of the Aodonglan Empire and looked through the headlines.

Sorel said: "According to the situation published in the newspapers, the war situation is not optimistic, and it seems that there is a tendency to expand. Now the war has spread to four countries, and several surrounding countries are also eager to try."

Ye Limo already knew this fact. From the moment Ronald started to think about increasing taxes to expand military spending, it can be seen that countries on the mainland are very interested in participating in the war.

Civilians hate war, which will make them lose their peaceful lives, but those in power like war, because war will bring them benefits and divert the increasingly profound contradictions accumulated in their country.

Returning to the matter of Prince Jiaser, Ye Limo asked: "Prince Jiaser did not do anything that harmed the interests of the Aodonglan Empire, did he?"

Sorel said: "Based on my understanding, no, Your Majesty. Although His Royal Highness Prince Gather is not a gentleman, he is not stupid. He knows the bottom line of his actions. Please don't worry."

Sorel also understood that Ye Limo was worried that Prince Jiaser would cause a catastrophe, and the hot island that took him in would become the target of the Aodonglan Empire to vent their anger.

Ye Limo nodded and said, "If I didn't know that His Royal Highness is reliable, I wouldn't let him stay on the island for so long."

Opening the newspaper and reading a few news, Ye Limo said, "I guess, after a while, Prince Gather will offer to return to China."

Sorel didn't want to understand, Ye Limo looked at him with confusion, and said a little proudly: "Let's wait, if he really proposes to go back, I will tell you how I thought of it."

Sorel nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The butler smiled and said, "I believe His Majesty's guess, His Majesty is always so smart."

Although Ye Limo felt a little shy, he seemed to be used to the housekeeper's compliments.

With the expansion of the war, the number of refugees on the mainland not only did not decrease, but also increased.Even in a calm and peaceful city, war is a topic that everyone often brings up.

Coupled with Sorel's persistent advertisements in newspapers for seeking relatives, the heat island, which hosts refugees, is becoming more and more popular with refugees. Some people target the heat island when they flee.Therefore, Sorel brought back more and more refugees each time.

Hearing that Solaire was summoned by Ye Limo as soon as he arrived at the harbor, Sullivan immediately ran to Ye Limo's residence.He felt that the threat from the Chief Merchant was great.

Seeing Sullivan coming, Ye Limo said, "Sullivan, it's just right, you can have dinner with us!"

Sullivan glanced at Sorel, and quickly agreed, "Okay, Your Majesty, I am very glad to be invited by you."

After spending too much time with Ye Limo, Sullivan doesn't feel embarrassed at all.

During dinner, Ye Limo told Sullivan about the situation of each country, and said directly by name: "Now countries are not only vying for control of the sea, but land disputes on land have not decreased. The heat island is independent from overseas, so it can protect itself wisely." , what will happen in the future is also difficult to predict. However, I think the current situation does not allow us to be too optimistic."

Sullivan is the commander-in-chief of the navy, and Sorel is the chief merchant. These two are a spear and a shield to the outside world. Only by making good use of this spear and shield can the heat island be kept from being disturbed.

Sorel has received some education and grew up on the mainland, so he has a better understanding of the relationship between countries and is more sensitive.Sullivan was born as a pirate, so he lacks a lot, but he has mastered the navy of Urushima. If this force cannot be used properly, it may cause some disasters.Therefore, Ye Limo intends to give Sullivan extra lessons so that he can understand the relationship between countries more quickly.

Sullivan said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that if other countries have evil intentions, neither I nor the soldiers will let them go easily!"

Ye Limo nodded in agreement and said, "You are right to think so. However, Sullivan, international relations are not such a simple matter. For some countries, perhaps his real purpose is not to attack you, but to provoke you The anger of you, let you do it first, and then they have a reason to do it, so they have a reason. This kind of practice of making a fuss and building plank roads in the dark is not uncommon in the world. What I am worried about is that you are out of the desire to protect the heat island. The mood is just being used by others."

Sullivan couldn't help but ponder, international relations are indeed much more complicated than he imagined.When encountering the government army before, you don’t need to think too much, it must be the enemy. Now that you encounter the government army, you have to think about the other party’s intentions, think about the methods and tricks the other party will use, etc.

After thinking about it, Sullivan felt that he, a novice, might not understand the rules and would bring some troubles to the hot island, so he said: "In this case, I will obey His Majesty's order. If His Majesty says no to fire, we will not fire. If His Majesty says to fight, we will fight to the death."

Ye Limo said: "At the moment, this is the case. In the future, when you go out to patrol the sea and meet opponents, you have no time to ask for instructions. You still have to make your own decisions. Our current policy is to resolutely not take the initiative, no matter how verbally provocative or disgusting the opponent is." What happened to provoke your anger, you all need to hold back. As long as the other party fires the first shot, you can do it without any scruples."

Fighting also takes up a reason.Heat Island has no status in the international arena now. If the first international show falls through, it will be subject to more restrictions and exclusion when it conducts international diplomacy in the future.

Sullivan repeated Ye Limo's words, nodded and said, "I see, Your Majesty, I will convey your meaning to the soldiers."

Ye Limo said: "That's right, let the soldiers understand that they are burdened with the fate of the heat island, so they can't do what they want. Sorel bought some newspapers and came back. After I read them, I will choose some news. You take the soldiers to learn and understand, so that they have some understanding of the current situation."

In addition to combat effectiveness, soldiers should also improve their own quality.

Sullivan agreed without hesitation, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Ye Limo likes Sullivan very much, and will agree to his request without hesitation.As a king, Ye Limo has a lot of things to think about every day. If he explains everything, he will be very tired.

Next, Ye Limo took the initiative to talk about asking Sorel to buy a merchant ship

It was only then that Suo Laier vaguely guessed that Ye Limo's gold coin was presented by Sullivan. He was shocked in his heart, but kept a very calm face.Sullivan used to be a pirate, and I heard that his father was also a pirate, so it is not surprising that he has a lot of personal wealth.

Sullivan agreed very much: "The soldiers always say that there is not enough wine, and buying more wine can meet everyone's needs."

Ye Limo asked: "Apart from wine, do you need anything else?"

Sullivan thought for a while and said, "Not for the time being. I'm used to life at sea, so you don't need much for other things."
