C2989 Passing through the successful Calais

The galley became the scapegoat for the release of anger. The French cargo ship, which could not afford to pay a hike fee, crashed into the ship out of control due to its emotional state.

The huge impact shook the boat. Fortunately, they were inside the narrow Port Said, and both of them were moving very fast, otherwise, something big would have happened. Once the boat was broken, they would not be able to leave.

Hearing the insults coming from the ship across the river, the sailors of the Calais growled in their native voices, "Are you all crazy?" You want to hit your own people without even having eyes? Damned bastards, you all have no brains, we're not stupid … "

As the two ships intersected, both sides seemed to have met face to face, and upon hearing the familiar sound, the French Merchant Shipping s immediately gave up. God! You... You are also French ships... "

"Isn't that nonsense? "You know the political scene in your motherland has changed, yet you still don't want to think of a way to get through it. You guys are dumb, but we're not stupid …"

"What the hell? If you don't create a few identities, you want to stay in the sea? Fortunately you guys were born in the nineteenth century, if it was in the 16th or 17th century, then trash like you would be a snack on the high seas! "

His scolding caused the faces of his fellow countrymen to redden. Initially, he wanted to vent his anger on the British, but in the end, he accidentally injured one of his own and was ruthlessly scolded.

But there was no way to retort, because the other party was completely right. The Ocean trade was just so dangerous and complicated!

A merchant ship had left the motherland and entered the dangerous open sea. Not only did they have to face the harsh weather, they also had to deal with the huge waves that would arrive at any moment. At the same time, they also had to deal with the countless pirates!

That era belonged to the era of the armed merchant ship, all the cargo ships needed to have cannons in order to dare to operate the Ocean trade!

However, it was not enough to guard against pirates. There were even more dangerous private ships, which meant the pirates of a country!

In that era, Britain was one of the founding nations of the pirates, many of which carried the queen's personal plunder certificate. They piloted cash warships to rob enemy ships on the high seas, and even warships dared to take a bite out of them!

In order to be safe, the cargo ship owners of that era would prepare several sets of identity ships, changing their flags in advance whenever they encountered danger.

This was already a type of unspoken rule in the ocean trade. Even in the 21st century, many internationally renowned ship kings would like to register their ships in many small countries of South America.

Of course, there were deeper reasons as well. For example, smuggling, arms trafficking, high technology products … A lot of black and gray business is done on the high seas.

The sea is always a place where sin can be contained, and there is no law on the high seas!

Carefully inspecting the hull, the galley discovered that there were no major obstacles, and that their normal course was not affected. On the one hand, they didn't want to make things difficult for their fellow townsmen, and on the other hand, they didn't dare to cause too much of a ruckus.

Once the conflict broke out, it would require the garrison and officials of the canal to come to trial. If outsiders, especially the British, were allowed to board a ship and discover the treasure of such a large ship, would they not take advantage of the situation?

The British Museum is just a Pi Xiu who can't eat anything. Once they discover so many cultural relics, they will definitely rob them!

Just like that, the two ships shook hands and stealthily entered the canal through the disguise of Jia Lai.

However, after entering the canal for only half a day, the sailor discovered that there was a problem. The place where they had just hit had a very small amount of seepage. It turned out that a small gap had appeared between the joined decks.

The gap was easily filled, and the boat had the right tools on board. But the most frightening thing was that this leak affected three wooden boxes filled with seawater.

The captain was flustered. He quickly cleaned up the warehouse and had the sailors repair the deck as soon as possible. The three damaged wooden boxes were opened, and the porcelain, bronze, and jade artifacts began to be repackaged.

Just when everyone was glad that they did not see the damage, a terrifying thing happened. A box was filled with pictures and books, and the Yuan Ming Yuan's 40 maps were right at the bottom.

Even if the crew didn't know how to protect cultural relics, they knew that paintings were not allowed to touch water, so they quickly sent them to the deck to dry.

I thought this was the Middle East, the Suez Canal of Egypt. The paintings in the sun in China shouldn't attract too much attention. Who would care about such things?

However, it seemed like fate had arranged for him to do so. With just a mere 0.001 seconds, the Ghost Eye on the left side of the capital city recognized the national treasure. Calais' identity was now completely exposed.

Hangzhou stopped moving. They hung up the flag, turned back to the anchorage and pretended to repair it. The left side covered their mouths without making a sound. They were all greedily watching the distant Jia Lai.

All the sentries started to gather at the Suez Bay outside of Suez. Even the cavalry on both sides of Red Sea had appeared.

In the vast sea of sand, the Bedouin Tribe ambushed fifteen thousand valiant cavalrymen. They hid in the desert, waiting for their master's orders.

La Deng and the others would definitely not make a move in the canal area, this was English and French's territory, the moment they make a move, the local garrison would definitely appear.

The ambush was at the exit of Suez Bay, Sakil Island!

The Jia Lai ship had no idea that she had entered the Bedouin's encirclement. They did not know that on the sand dunes on both sides of the dark blue seawater, there were many natives wearing yellow camouflage robes staring at them.

The location of the ship was being transported to the next stop at any time using fast horses. Even if it was late at night, the herdsmen could use lighting signal to communicate with it.

There were a lot of fishermen along the shore of Suez Bay. The cargo ships that the boats were looking forward to were selling dates, fruits, fresh fish and other specialties … The Jia Lai was one of the ships that was heavily cared for.

In the busy and narrow Suez Bay, the ship's speed simply could not increase. It took a full 48 hours for the Jia Lai to finally be able to see the surface of the Red Sea.

Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, a few boats passed by on Sharkil Island, and the veiled dancers came up to them and offered them their water fumes and their belly dances.

There were even female dancers who were secretly selling them prohibited spirits!

The Jia Lai had really let her guard down. It was possible that the few days they spent in Suez Canal were too tense, they had been afraid of exposing themselves in front of the British all day long. Now that they had seen the surface of the Red Sea, these people were suddenly enthralled.

Despite the captain's objections, the rest of the crew had requested for the dancers to board the boat with high votes. They were really holding their breath during the long voyage!

One by one, the female dancers, whose faces were covered by veils but whose bellies were bare, boarded the boat. Boxes of liquor smuggled in from Europe were lifted up onto the deck by ropes.

After the music started, the dancer began to twist her hips. The scent of hormones filled the hot air!

In a short while, more than ten bottles of alcohol were consumed. When the dancers were about to take out the wine from the wooden box, countless figures suddenly appeared on Sharmie Island, taking advantage of the darkness to get closer.
