Round Bullet Power (Level 1): The round bullet fired by the artillery has stronger lethality and penetrating ability, with the additional attribute: Destruction, causing a lot of damage to enemy targets with small hulls.
Jackdaw Hull (Tier 2): Increased the ship’s hull size and loading capacity, increased gun bays, and a new gun type: Cannon.
This series of upgrade consumption will completely consume the 2,500 materials that have just been saved, together with 7,500 silver coins. Although Gordon’s gold coins can’t be taken out, it is no problem to use it as a ship’s upgrade consumption.
The whole ship was completely new, all the damage disappeared, the hull rose directly to sixty meters, thirty-six broadside guns, four bow guns, plus two cannons.
“Don’t worry everyone, these are normal circumstances!”
Gordon climbed the ship building and shouted, but the feedback he received was embarrassing.
After putting aside the first novelty, the crew accepted the change very quickly. Some sailors stopped to look at the two cannons, or touched the brand-new deck, and then the sailors continued to sail, and the sweepers continued to clean. .
After all, the change just changed them to a bigger ship, which might have been better, but the Jackdaw was just a very mediocre ship, neither like the fastest black pearl, nor like a flying one. The Dutchman can dive and is probably a decent cruiser.
“captain!”
Only one man rushed over, and that was newly recruited boatman David Brook.
“Well, David, what’s the problem?”
“I’m resigning, sir, your boat doesn’t need a boatman at all!”
After the Jackdaw entered the Caribbean waters for two battles, David was in charge of repairing the ship. He spent untold hardships plugging holes in the ship, clearing debris, and re-strengthening the support columns, especially after jamming. During the war at the mouth of the Ronnie, the bottom of the Jackdaw was leaked. The sailors used the winch to press the water out, while dragging it ashore and tying the hull to the palm trees and coconut trees on the beach, which was barely completed. Repairs to ships.
As a result, Gordon’s return was just a simple upgrade, which erased all traces, leaving David with a deep sense of frustration, life was worthless, and everything he worked hard and worked hard for was a joke in the captain’s hands.
“No no no, every ship needs a boatman in charge of maintenance, David, you’re good enough, you just need to get used to the Jackdaw.”
Gordon tried to keep them, but now their manpower is too few, and even the gunners for forty artillery pieces are not together, and he has no time to recruit a boatman in Europe.
David was just a child’s mentality, and was coaxed back by Gordon, but he was very uncomfortable looking at the empty ship. He needed more crew members to ensure the normal operation of the Jackdaw.
They set sail in the evening, bypassed Port of Spain at night, and then headed north to the Royal Fortress, which is the later port of St. George. Of course, now, this is a port belonging to the French, and there is not even a decent pier, according to Gordon’s memory, there has been a big improvement in the past year, the introduction of cocoa, coffee and cotton, coupled with the large trade of black slaves, established the economic status of the plantation here.
The future is always full of changes, and he can’t always drag the disgruntled Jackdaw at sea, so they temporarily modified the route and prepared to stop at the French-ruled port.
The distance of one hundred and fifty nautical miles allowed the upgraded Jackdaw to arrive at this spring port on the third morning.
Like Lisbon, the four seasons here are like spring, and the city is built on the mountain. The most striking thing is the huge royal fortress, standing on the top of the mountain, with artillery covering the entire pier.
The fortress built in 1650 is still strong after decades, and as long as it remains in French hands, it ensures that the land is still under French control.
No one wants to have a conflict here, after all, the port is not rich and the French are not easy to mess with.
Captain Gordon had been drilling in the virgin jungle for nearly a month before he saw the calendar on the ship. The time had come to November 4th, and he had been in this world for nearly half a year.
The sky is a little dark today. As the sun gradually moves towards the Tropic of Cancer, the climate change on the sea is likely to attract hurricanes at this time. The wind blows the waves a little bit, and almost all ports are moored at the wharf, which is not a good climate. .
Following the footsteps of Gordon and the others, there was a little bit of freezing rain floating in the sky, causing the pedestrians to shrink their necks, and then drilled into the room.
The Jackdaw paid the berthing fee very well, and then brought people ashore. There are no decent hotels here. The main urban area is very small. , Among those coconut trees and palm trees, it is also a good experience.
Of course, this way of life is better than staying on the Jackdaw, they have just set sail, and they are leaving just to recruit some sailors here, so it is only Gordon who disembarked with Mickey and two sailors towards the Go to the taverns of the city.
Pushing open the door of this tattered tavern, the fireplace in the tavern warmed the atmosphere a lot, but the smell here is not good. In the early morning, the mess caused by the hangover has not had time to clean up. The messenger of the tavern worked hard. After picking up all the stolen goods, the bartender at the bar disappeared.
“Looks like we didn’t come at the right time?”
After speaking, Gordon shook his head and was about to turn around and leave. Taking advantage of this time, he could go to the exchange to have a look. The ships are only ballasted for supplies and those grabbed cannons. The larger space should be able to load more of goods, wealth comes from accumulation, and he can’t let his ship run empty.
“Wait sir!”
As soon as they arrived at the door of the tavern~www.mtlnovel.com~, they were stopped by a well-dressed Frenchman with gold-rimmed glasses, who spoke in very difficult English.
“Allow me to introduce myself first, August Barre Bonnet. Just call me Bonnet. I’m a businessman. I think I might be able to help?”
Although Captain Gordon was a little depressed after being down, he did not treat himself badly. The sailor who was well-dressed and experienced the killing was strong and sharp, and he was not a small role.
“You can call me Captain Gordon. I want to recruit a group of sailors. Is there any way for you? My ship is the Jackdaw, a privateer belonging to England.”
Feeling the blowing cold rain, Gordon wrapped his coat and stared impatiently at the man who was still thinking. Of course, he also knew that recruiting a group of people in the French port to work for the British privateer, It seems a little too much.
