Four hundred and eighty chapters lost youth

"Don't you want to wait here until the result of their negotiations comes out before leaving?" Carl was very confused about Hong Tao's style of doing so much. Since they all slipped out, there was no difference between four months and five months. Why are you so anxious to go back?

"Don't treat your cousin as a fool. I don't have any suggestions for negotiations. Staying here is a hindrance. You have also made clear the conditions with the Venetians. Bargaining is not your strength, so it's better to leave it to William. Everyone should do their own work well. My job is in the East. I'm so anxious to go back mainly because I'm going to discuss future matters with Mettini while the Port of Cape Town has not been completely controlled by the imperial government. Otherwise, where would I go to get so much sugar and rum?" Hong Tao himself didn't want to leave. The climate in Naples is very pleasant. Except for that cellar, everything here is quite beautiful.

"Are you really going to hand over the route to Carl Fort to Metini? I'm worried that one day the Empire's warships will suddenly appear here..." Carl was not very emotional, and he was very conflicted. The establishment of the Jinhe Empire also had his contributions to it. Hong Tao was his savior and saved it twice. But he really didn't want to see the Imperial warships horizontally domineering in the Mediterranean. According to Hong Tao's character, the captain he brought out might not be much better. Once those warships come, not only his cousin's country will suffer, but the entire northern Mediterranean will be in chaos.

"I said you have been depressed all day long. It turns out that you are thinking about this. Don't worry, the Imperial Battleship will not come in a short time, and the routes transporting sugar and rum will not be handed over to Mettini, let alone to the Royal Navy. I want you to complete this difficult task." Carl's concern made Hong Tao shake his head, and his heart was considered a white ****.

"Give it to me! Let me go to Cape Town by myself!" Hearing Hong Tao's explanation, Carl was no longer worried and began to be surprised.

"What's wrong? Have you lost your sailing skills over the years? Don't tell me that you can't go to Cape Town, then it's meaningless to stay here. Just follow me to go back to Jinhe City." Carl's expression made Hong Tao very worried. He considered other issues himself, just forgot about Carl's navigation skills. He has been wandering near the sea these years. If he forgets his sailing skills, it will be troublesome. Now it's too late to find someone, and the whole plan has to be redesigned.

"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten... But don't worry about telling me this route? Are you not afraid of telling William?" Carl was not worried about his navigation skills. He would never forget this thing after learning it. He just felt that the burden was too heavy.

He knew very well what the route from Cape Town to Carl Fort mean. Hong Tao once told him that this was the last section of the road connecting the two regions. If others knew about this section of the road, it would be very troublesome to the Empire. It would be difficult for Huang Jian's Navy to take care of it at such a long distance. Unless the Empire intends to start moving towards Europe, it would not open this route. Even after staying in Carl Fort for so many years, he did not know how to return to Cape Town.

"Hahahaha... Carl, you're out!" Hong Tao couldn't help laughing when he heard that Carl was actually worried about the safety of Cape Town.

"What? What am I?" Carl instinctively thought that Hong Tao scolded him again. The emperor had more swear words than anyone in the world. Carl couldn't guarantee anything else. The world's number one genius in cursing is guaranteed to be Hong Tao, no one!

"Oh, this is a word from my hometown, which means that you are old and can't keep up with the times. Maybe you have been here for too long and know a little about the outside world. But it's okay, you will soon have the opportunity to go back to Cape Town to check out and go back with me. No matter how your cousin talks with the Venetians, you need to go back and go to Sun City by yourself. Whether it's Golden River City, Kalamba, Cape Town or Sun City, you have your own share.

Son, we are partners, you have the right to know where they are. Of course, you have the right to sell them, but before selling, it is best to make sure that the other party has the ability to buy them. If Mettini wants to do so, he can destroy William, Louis and Henry several times by himself. He will take his dark-skinned army and directly fight the people here back to the Viking era and let them continue to go to the northern sea to catch fish and eat them, hahahahahaha."

Carl's concern was completely unnecessary. Hong Tao was not afraid that Europeans would know the existence of Cape Town, and even if they knew it, it would be useless. Now Cape Town has become a real intercontinental fortress, where people need people, resources, and geographical location. Even if the whole European countries unite, they will not be able to get it under Metine. The reason why he did not allow Cape Town and Carl Fort to navigate each other was actually protecting Europe, or that he did not intend to let the empire's hands stretch too long to avoid being greedy for too much.

"Hehehe... I remembered the way we killed whales on the sea back then. At that time, we had only one small sailboat, and we were afraid that it could not resist the water leakage of the waves all day long, so we had to chase whales on the windsurfing. When I first ate whales meat, I thought to myself, I would eat this kind of meat all my life, it was so delicious. It was from then on that time that I realized that the whales' belly was so smelly. Sometimes when I fell asleep in Carl Fort, I would wake up in a dream. I smelled the smell coming from outside the window, and thought we were killing whales with Old Man Rong on the beach." As I got older, Carl, who was originally optimistic and straightforward, has become a person that is easy to recall, which shows that he is really old and is very nostalgic for his youth.

"Don't lyricize with me, this is not an easy task. In the next few years, you may have to hide this secret in your stomach, and then take the fleet back and forth between Carl Fort and Sun City, and from time to time you have to go to Cape Town. The ship will use your armed cargo ship to arrive at Sun City and meet Luo Youde. You two will discuss what you need. I have no other requirements. Don't tell anyone the location of Cape Town and Sun City for the time being, and you can lead it alone, is it okay?" Hong Tao is very annoying to people lyrics with him, especially when it comes to age. He doesn't want to know at all times that he is already an old man almost fifty years old. When no one mentioned it, he deceived himself only at thirty years old.

However, in the next twenty days, Hong Tao would feel that he was really old at any time. After he and Carl returned to Carl Fort, they only stayed for a few days. After just finishing the later arrangement with Jiang Zhuyi, they didn't even give him time to proclaim the debauchery in the daytime, and were dragged to the boat by Carl because Hong Tao didn't know why he suddenly broke the road, but he should let Carl be the captain and be the sailboat himself. Carlbo didn't wait to taste the captain's taste. It was not an ordinary captain, but a captain who could order the emperor to be the sailboat.

In fact, Carl didn't have to follow Hong Tao at all. He learned navigation skills with Hong Tao, and even learned more than the graduates in the navigation school. As long as he gave him the accurate chart, he could find the accurate route and port location according to the chart. But he still wanted to take another sea adventure with Hong Tao on a small sailboat, not for anything else, but just to commemorate the youth he and Hong Tao had lost.

He commemorated it, but it hurt Hong Tao. If the two of them wanted the boat to sail at full speed, they had to do all the work of the five people. This is not called sailing at all, it should be called escape, just like a nuclear-powered cruiser behind them urging their lives. Carl was not happy to sail at a slower speed, and sometimes he begged and sometimes lost his temper. Anyway, as long as Hong Tao did not speed up his life, he would not let Hong Tao remain peaceful.

"My old bones are almost tossing you away. This is the last time. If you dare to get on my boat again in the future, I will throw you down!" The voyage of more than 9,000 kilometers was not stopped in the middle and there was no supply. It was a new record. Unfortunately, it was not officially certified. When the lighthouse of the Signal Mountain came into view, Hong Tao simply ignored the sail rope and lay directly on the deck. Now he just wanted to sleep.
