The gourmet among pirates

Chapter 133 Huge interests hidden in the dark

In response to Morin's inquiry, Carter smiled softly and replied calmly: "Governor Morin wrongly blamed me. I did not deceive the Governor."

"The Governor must have seen it when he came here just now. According to the special order of Her Highness Elizabeth, we built the naval branch for you completely according to the level of a naval fortress. This is much more difficult than building an ordinary naval branch. Quite a bit. As a result, the progress of the project will naturally slow down."

"And Mr. Governor. Although the main body of the fortress is almost completed now, the subsequent construction of the interior of the fortress, the layout of various defense facilities, the layout of pipelines, and the improvement of the interior decoration of the fortress are the most time-consuming. After all, a real naval fortress will have to be put into use for at least hundreds of years if nothing else happens, and the quality here is really anything but sloppy."

"In addition, everything in Rogge Town was destroyed by the Golden Lion. We have no ready-made tools and materials. All the materials we use need to be transported from other islands. After coming and going, we consume The time will naturally increase.”

At the end, Carter showed a wry smile. Compared to before, this wry smile seemed much more real to Molin.

Could it be that I really blamed her wrongly?

Seeing Carter's wry smile, Molin couldn't help but have such an idea, but in less than a second, this idea was rejected by Molin.

impossible!

Mo Lin didn't wait to think about it.

Carter continued: "And...Governor Morin also knows that the main task of bringing so many people here is not actually to help you build a base."

"Six months ago, I came to Rogge Town after being ordered to excavate the remains of the Celestial Dragons in Rogge Town. After half a year of digging, the results I achieved are still very impressive."

"Except for one noble Highness, we have found the remains of more than a dozen other world nobles in the original Rogge Town Square. But... precisely because of this, the world nobles have ordered me to The remaining remains of His Highness must be found as soon as possible, so now I can only mobilize hundreds of workers to continue to help you build the base. This is already the maximum number of people I can squeeze out. If there are more... I'm sorry There’s nothing I can do for the time being!”

After speaking, Carter apologized to Maureen with an apologetic look.

After listening to Carter's words, Mo Lin frowned slightly.

"Is that right?"

Carter nodded: "Of course, I don't dare to joke about the world's nobles, and although this matter is obscure, with Governor Molin's current status, it is not difficult to find out if you really inquire about it carefully."

After Molin took a deep look at Carter, she stopped worrying about this matter.

"In that case, Director Carter can tell me how long it will take for my branch base to be officially completed and put into use."

"It will take at least 5-6 months!"

With that said, Carter was prepared and took out a document and handed it to Molin.

It records the progress data of the fortress in detail.

"I see!"

Mo Lin did not open the document in front of him, but left directly with Taoyao and Ace.

······

After watching Mo Lin and others leave on a warship.

Director Carter came to a residence in Rogge Town alone, took out a phone bug from a dark partition, and then dialed the phone silently.

"...Sir, I have sent away the naval governor of the East China Sea!"

"Well, although the other party has some opinions, he has no doubts! But I estimate that the navy will protest against world conquest by then. In this case, we will not have much time left."

"Don't worry, sir, he didn't stay on the belt for too long. In addition, in those places on the island, I have already made disguises for them and asked them to evacuate. Even if it's like today A Governor of Morin won’t find anything with his knowledge, color, and domineering perception...”

Gu "Okay, I understand, sir!"

After reporting to an unknown big shot, Director Carter disappeared into the shadows in the corner and quietly left this inconspicuous residence.

······

What Carter didn't know was.

Behind a pile of construction materials less than a hundred meters away from her, Maureen, who had left and returned, almost watched her leave after she made the call.

A distance of one hundred meters was nothing to Molin, who had mastered the power of sound waves.

Therefore, this phone call that Carter thought was secret was clearly heard by Mo Lin.

"It's interesting. I didn't expect that there are so many things hidden in a small Rogge town."

After Carter disappeared, Maureen hid in the night and quickly moved around Rogge Town.

Until almost an hour later.

Mo Lin stopped at the entrance of a hidden mine.

"Is it here?"

Because of Mo Lin's "departure", the mine, which had been temporarily suspended, was reopened.

In fact, in the phone call Carter made just now, she did not want to reopen these mines so quickly, but the big shot on the other end of the phone seemed to be impatient. For him, every time the mine was shut down, every minute Seconds are huge losses.

In this regard, after struggling hard to no avail, Carter could only accept his fate and quickly reopen the mine.

After all, she is not the only one who has that adult at the new address of Rogge Town at this time.

Therefore, when Molin arrived here, he saw miners one after another, pushing carts of ore in and out of the mine.

Even though there was a lot of distance, Molin could still see the golden light shining on the carts of ore.

There is no doubt that this vein is a gold mine of staggering value.

After taking a look at this gold mine, which was said to have considerable reserves, Mo Lin hurried toward the next destination thoughtfully.

the next few hours.

In addition to the original gold mine, Molin also saw with his own eyes the jade mine, silver mine, iron mine, and a ruby ​​mine being mined.

······

After carefully visiting the entire island, Maureen finally knew how far Carter had dragged his fortress, and even concealed the real reason why she had found the last Celestial Dragon remains.

interest.

Incomparably huge benefits.

These huge, unknown interests are the reason why Director Carter sent by the World Government and the big shot behind her chose to take desperate risks.
