Chapter177 【Imagination of Shipping】

It was the fourteenth day of the Cold Wind Month in the year 1637 of the Great Navigation Calendar.

Li Jiu finally arrived at Leuthe.

It was early morning when we arrived, but there was not much sea fog, or perhaps the wind was strong today and the fog dispersed.

In short, Li Jiu saw Leuthe clearly.

Leuthe is huge, bigger than Tut, and even bigger than Naso. Lijiu can't see the border at a glance. The whole city is filled in front of his eyes, spreading continuously into the island, all the way to the distance.

On the hillside, there is no end.

No wonder Leutech is the core of the Calabis Sea Area, a cargo distribution center, and this scale alone shows it.

Seeing this, Li Jiu thought of his own Innsmouth and Tut. With such a small scale, he didn't know when it would develop to this point. Also, if such a big city could be occupied and turned into a 'pier'

, I don’t know how many navigation certificates can be produced in a month, it’s an absolutely astronomical number, right?

It's a pity that with Li Jiu's current strength, let alone occupying this place, it would be good to gain a foothold here.

Putting away these thoughts, Li Jiu took a deep breath. The morning wind blew against his face. His current mood was quite good.

The main reason is that there are no big troubles for the time being, and his recent income from sailing certificates is pretty good. As of today, his number of sailing certificates has returned to 129, and he has reached another milestone.

His personal strength, astrologer's rank, has also been promoted to the second level of Weather Maker. Yes, the bottle of Weather Maker potion fished out from the sunken ship at the bottom of the sea has naturally entered his stomach.

His Astrologer's first-level potion had been digested in his recent adventure and was almost overflowing.

Now he has a dual-class second level. Although he can't be called very strong, if he really talks about it, he will definitely scare a lot of people.

After enjoying the morning wind on the deck for a while, I turned around and saw Rio Ke watching Leuthe in a daze.

In the past two days, Yue Ke has been in a state of confusion because he doesn't know what to do in the future.

Even if the voyage came back successfully, the Governor's Mansion has been completely offended!

Although it was the people of the Tribunal who scared Nathan away, the people of the Tribunal were riding on his ship.

He didn't think Nathan wouldn't remember the Golden Hart.

He is a villain who is determined to retaliate. This time the Tribunal has caused him such a huge loss of face, he will never let it go.

In the future, if the Golden Deer wants to go to Naso, I'm afraid that the front foot will only enter the vicinity of Nasuo, and the back foot will already be surrounded by pirates.

Flint couldn't even protect him.

There is no need to run this route.

So which way to go?

He has relied on this route to make money for the rest of his life. Without it, he would have made almost the same amount of money, but he still had a large group of people to support.

A little desperate.

"Captain Rioco, don't look so sad, just smile, nothing is impossible." Li Jiu knew what Rioco was worried about, but his worries were not necessarily opportunities for Li Jiu.

In the past two days, Li Jiu has learned about Rioco's identity and business in detail.

Although the Golden Deer is just a two-masted armed merchant ship, and Rio is a timid-looking guy, in fact, he does quite a lot of business.

Because he was protected by Captain Flint, the top legendary pirate in the Calabis Sea, he had almost no safety concerns, so his investment in this area was very small, which is why the Golden Hart seemed a bit shabby.

In fact, all the good stuff was loaded on his boat, and in order to load more cargo, the manpower on his boat was almost controlled to the minimum limit that could drive the boat.

From this we can see his character, which is a bit petty and stingy.

But you can't blame him. He comes from a poor sailor family. He joined an armed merchant ship as a merchant when he was still under age. When he rescued Flint, he was still a handyman on the ship.

It wasn't until Flint crossed the waters of Calabis that he became prosperous. He had enough money to buy his own ship and used Flint's name to do business.

He owns a large-scale business in Leutach. Because of Flint's relationship, the merchants in Leutech also give him a lot of respect. He even has a seat on the board of the Leutach Merchant Association.

.

Li Jiu liked this very much.

The Merchants Association of Leuthe is a very important organization. Ninety-nine percent of the merchants in Leutehe are in this organization. Although it is unofficial, it covers almost 60-70% of the shipping business in the entire Calabis Sea.

To have a place in this organization is to become a member of the council, which will give you great convenience in shipping and reap huge benefits.

For example, Talina's father, Don Estan, is a member of this organization and is the deputy director of the council. It is precisely because of this position that he has become a wealthy man in Leuthe.

Li Jiu really wanted to get involved in this organization because he was no longer alone. He had two islands behind him and nearly 10,000 citizens to feed.

Tut has not completely returned home yet, and is in urgent need of a very sweet cake to prompt Tut's people to recognize him as the new lord, thus transforming him into a new 'pier'.

Before he could find a new unowned island with excellent resources, Li Jiu could only turn his goal to shipping.

In the past, the maritime trade between Leuthe and Tut was not prosperous because it included Naso, a necessary place, and there were pirates along the way.

On the one hand, the risk of smuggling things from Leuthe to Tut is too high. Except for some desperate businessmen, few people will do this. On the other hand, it is also the guidance of the merchants association and the formulation of some resolutions to allow the merchants to do so.

They were only willing to go to Naso and were not willing to go further to Tut, which resulted in poor trade in Tut on this section of the route.

If you can have a certain influence in the merchants association, you can change this situation to some extent.

Of course, the most important thing is the pirates. If we can deal with the pirates along the way, then this route will be smooth.

It's just that it's not possible for the time being.

But it is not impossible to avoid it, for example, Captain Flint is behind Rio.

This is the second reason why Li Jiu likes Rioco, and it is also the more important one.

If we can get in touch with this captain, then most of the shipping business will be settled.

You know, although this captain is a member of the Nassau Union Council, he has been feared by the Governor's Mansion because of his reputation. There are also rumors that he is likely to be the next Governor, so his situation in Nassau is not that wonderful.

.

Therefore, Li Jiu was very confident that he could use Rioco's relationship to establish this line.

Even this captain is currently not in the waters of Calabis, and he doesn’t know when he will return.
