After letting Frederick send the people out, Varian urged Wodek to prepare a fleet to return to Boravice. He not only had to collect the food and supplies needed by Boravice, but also had to recruit people to go to Boravice, which was announced to the outside world as Blackwater Island.
The people of Bolavis eat fish every day and are almost vomiting. Varian must transport a batch of wheat while also taking care of the people on Whitesea Island.
Then, Varean met with the sea merchants who were clamoring to leave. These guys threatened Varean that if he did not give them the cheap labor and food monopoly that they could whip before, they would all leave Brownsea Island.
Varean first spoke to calm them down, and then kicked them away after his fleet was formed. Varean didn't know how Tone Sudin had tolerated these guys before, but he couldn't stand it anymore.
It is also possible that he will do the same as him and kick them out once the fleet is ready to be formed. However, six ships are obviously not enough in the dangerous Baltic Sea, so he will do this after the fleet is larger.
However, with the huge Boravice behind them, the fleet of four ships left after Tone Sudin took away two of their ships did not need to sail far, but only needed to transport the rich resources developed by Boravice.
Then Carmenla came to Varian again and said that many dock workers were dismissed without reason by sea merchants, and many people had no food to eat. After the fishing tax was abolished, many fishermen went out to sea to fish and quarreled over the scope of the fishing grounds.
The distribution of sea fish around Bailang Island is not even. The good places have long been occupied by previous fishermen, and these new fishermen are naturally unwilling to accept this.
Varean had no choice but to incorporate all the unemployed people on the island into the fleet. It happened that the previous crew members had been poached by merchants. When Tone Sudin escaped, he was afraid of causing trouble, so he only took two ships. The other crew members were poached by merchants who wanted to destroy the White Wave Island fleet.
After letting Kanepali divide the fishing grounds, Varean also had to solve the financial problem. Tone Sudin took away all the gold coins from White Wave Island, which required him to handle it carefully, otherwise White Wave Island would go bankrupt.
At this time, Varean didn't know that the Lord of Truth had already moved all of Tone Sudin's gold coins back and placed them under Xia Lan's bed.
Port terminal,
The delegation waiting for news was observing the island ruled by the Code family. The previously busy port seemed a little deserted, and there was no change on the faces of the common people, who were still numb. They just felt that they had a more generous lord.
The attendant behind the chief, Marcus Ster, suddenly asked, "Viscount Ster, how do you feel about Brownsea Island now?"
The other barons who were traveling with them stopped respectfully and looked at the man who was about forty years old. Although his rough skin from wind and sun made him fit the identity of a servant, he always had a convincing temperament that made him the center of attention.
"I have no way of judging. Lord Mido, Varian Code is too biased towards the common people. Without maritime merchants, it will be difficult for Brownsea Island to develop."
The man pretending to be a servant is the Earl of Hanyue Island, Ash Mido, the ruler of the southern part of the Poro Islands. When the Poro Islands were fighting each other, he had united the entire southern part of the Poro Islands.
The Thirteenth Council sent Tone Soutine to Brownsea Island ten years ago, also with the intention of planting a nail behind him and curbing other developments.
The reason why Ash Mido did not reveal his identity was that he was afraid that the Thirteen Councils would misunderstand that he was the one who instructed the Code family to occupy White Wave Island. Now the Poro Islands are no match for Zilaner Island, and the conflict between the two sides must be reduced.
"Do you think the story about the Code family that Varian Code told you is fake? Kron Code never came to the Baltic Sea, and the story about Blackwater Island was also written by him.
So far, we have only seen him and a few attendants. Although there is a golden warrior, he looks very old. White Wave Island is so important to the Code family's foothold in the Baltic Sea, how could it be handed over to only a few people?
The guards in the castle are obviously civilians, and their armor must have been stripped from Toné Soutine's soldiers."
Listening to Ash Mido's analysis, Marcus Ster said quietly: "I saw them transporting supplies to Blackwater Island. It doesn't seem fake."
"Could it be that Blackwater Island is real, but Kron Code is fake? Varyan Code uses his brother's name to rule Brownsea Island, but what's the point of this? It just tells us that he has to obey the orders of Blackwater Island?" An accompanying baron asked puzzledly.
"Whether his brother Kron Code is on the run in Midgard or on Blackwater Island, these are the news you have inquired about. If you want to know, just ask Varyan Code directly.
Perhaps Kron Code is just a cover for Varian Code to attract Tone Sudin. After all, only the eldest son who holds the core inheritance of the Code family is attractive enough.
Ash Mido straightened his sleeves and looked elsewhere, leaving everyone else still deep in thought.
"Varean Code threw out such a smokescreen, obviously trying to hide something."
"Did he find the Lost Land?"
"Hahaha……"
Bolavis had disappeared for five hundred years, so how could he be found by the Blackwater Clan who were jointly expelled by Tudor and Tilan?
The crowd walked on the dirty and messy streets. When the skinny people of Bailang Island passed by them, the envoys all had complicated expressions, and some even touched their chests with heartache from time to time.
This group of nobles are the elites of the southern sea area. They dared to cross the sea with only a few people to reclaim the territory that was still a deserted island.
Ever since Kanepal opened the maritime era, countless illegitimate sons or second sons like them have lost their lives while going out to sea with the fiefdom order. Those who survived had a difficult time, and everyone was able to hide their emotions very well.
But at this moment, looking at the many people in the territory who were only covered with a piece of rag and had whip marks all over their bodies, he couldn't help but reveal his true feelings.
This Tone Sudin is such a scumbag, he actually treats precious people as consumables. These people are gold coins, how can he waste them like this?
Every time they passed by a tortured and numb citizen, they could not feel the slightest sympathy for the expulsion of Tone Soutine's family, which was also a noble class.
This bastard who killed his own son and adopted a son as a slave is too extravagant. He only knows how to enjoy himself and uses such crude methods to develop his territory.
The more they see, the more they despise it.
But when they saw the castle left by Tone Soutine, everyone couldn't help but show envy. If the conditions of being dogs for the Thirteen Councils were not too harsh, they would not consider it.
