Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Bruno has always attached great importance to the sea control of Merlin Bay.

Because the Idar Territory is a noble territory huddled on the eastern border of the empire. Apart from being forced to watch the sea, Bruno really can't think of any other way to expand.

Unless the huge Norman Empire falls apart in an instant and falls into a melee, all Bruno can do is to quietly develop and then start the pace of magic industrialization as soon as possible, so that the Idarland can become a country that can look down upon all threats. The presence.

For him, perhaps living silently as an aristocratic master waiting to die is the most comfortable choice, but in this era of extreme scarcity of entertainment activities and cooking techniques, this is also an extremely boring choice.

Therefore, with the help of the wonder construction system, Bruno has always regarded "making Idarland a pearl in the eastern part of the empire" as his goal, urging himself to keep moving forward.

This is not only to enable him to live a better life, but also to enable the serfs and civilians who live in poverty to live stably.

After all, the education Bruno received in his previous life and his life experiences made it difficult for him to remain indifferent to the current situation of this era.

And the most important thing is that in this era of feudal autocratic monarchy, Bruno does not want to entrust his life to the hands of others!

It is the patent of the Emperor to decide life and death with a single word, and Bruno, who comes from a highly developed Earth society, does not want to become a victim of this kind of aristocratic politics at some point in the future.

Therefore, no matter which angle he started from, the French Islands hanging far overseas were the objects he must develop.

It is not only a bridgehead for Bruno to set his sights overseas, but also a retreat prepared by Bruno for himself!

It is precisely because of this that the Merlin Bay, which is blocked between the mainland of Idar and the French Islands, has naturally become a place that Bruno must control.

This is the lifeline connecting the Farland Islands and the Idar Territory, and it must not be missed!

After not seeing each other for many days, when Captain Jack saw the young Earl again, he only felt that Bruno was becoming more and more handsome, and his every move revealed the demeanor of a nobleman and the temperament of a superior.

Standing in front of Bruno, Captain Jack organized some words, and then said carefully:

"Your Majesty, the pirates entrenched in the territorial waters of Basel have been wiped out by us. Except for those who are still available, the rest of the pirates have been controlled and escorted here with the ship to be dealt with by the earl..."

Bruno couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard that another pirate prisoner was being escorted to the Idar territory.

Although it has received the first batch of prisoners of war (pirates) from overseas a few days ago, the ninth production team is always short of people!

As the production team with the lowest cost and the largest amount of labor in Idar, Bruno is eager to put all the criminals and even potential criminals in Idar into the ninth production team for labor reform and make great achievements for Idar. due contribution.

Of course, the so-called minimal waste does not mean the deprivation of necessary food resources, but the reduction of the supply of non-daily necessities as well as the types and varieties of food, so as to ensure that the members of the Ninth Production Team can maximize their effectiveness.

Whether it is at the Baths of Caracalla or at the construction site of the Great Roman Aqueduct, if you look closely, you can almost see the figure of the ninth production team of Idar. They played an extremely important role in the construction of the wonders of Idar!

so……

"You and Liszt and White Barrel will take over and send those prisoners of war with less serious crimes to the ninth production team. Shabi has a way to make them docile." Bruno was particularly interested in this. .

"The villain understands."

Captain Jack nodded quickly, and then continued: "It's just... Lord Earl, I don't know how the Coral Island pirates should arrange their next actions..."

In fact, what Captain Jack is most worried about is that Idar will kill the donkey and wait until he has wiped out all the pirates in the waters of the Kingdom of Basel to settle accounts with his future wife. Therefore, his mood at this time can be said to be extremely uneasy...

"Don't worry, the Stuart family will keep their word. Since they have chosen you to manage the Coral Island Pirates, that is my Lord's trust in you. As long as you are loyal to the Idar Territory, I will not burn bridges by crossing the river." It’s a matter of fact.” Bruno smiled.

"Thank you, Lord Earl, for your careful cultivation! I will definitely work for Lord Earl wholeheartedly!" When he heard Bruno's promise, Captain Jack suddenly beamed with joy.

His anxious heart finally calmed down at this moment.

"It's just...since you can be considered my subordinates, then naturally you can't go around using the name of this coral island pirate all day long..." Bruno said in a deep voice.

As the supreme ruler of the Idar Territory, Bruno would never allow his subordinates to have non-staff members like the Coral Island Pirates.

Even if they are ordered to rob, they must have strict rules and regulations like the Idar bandits before, and know what can and cannot be robbed. Otherwise, they will cause trouble for the Idar leader.

Therefore, in addition to robbing merchant ships and controlling Merlin Bay for the Idar Territory, Bruno also needs to find something to do for these pirates who only know how to eat, drink, and gamble. They find the meaning of life and get rid of low-level interests such as eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling as soon as possible.

"I will obey the earl's orders!"

"I plan to establish a new branch. What's the name? It's called Idar Whale Hunting Company!" Bruno said enthusiastically.

Forming the collected pirates into a new whale hunting company was a wise decision made by Bruno after considering it for a long time!

Today's coral island pirates are actually more like the second-line army of the Idar Territory.

They do not have the same sophisticated warships and rigorous training missions as the navy, but they can also provide a certain degree of maritime support to the Idar Territory when necessary, and become the eyes of the Idar people to supervise the entire ocean.

Therefore, it is extremely appropriate to establish an Idar Whale Hunting Company.

On the one hand, whales are full of treasures. Every time a whale is hunted, Idarland can obtain extremely high economic benefits.

You know, those giant creatures wandering in the deep sea have made Bruno envious for a long time!

There are only a few hundred pirates on the Coral Island, and the weapons and equipment are relatively backward. Therefore, even if they try their best to hunt whales, it may be difficult to catch three or five whales in a month.

This will hardly reduce the group and number of whales, and it will not affect the ecological balance of Merlin Bay at all.

On the other hand, the process of hunting whales is also a process of continuous cooperation among pirates. Coral island pirates can exercise themselves and improve their combat capabilities while hunting whales.

Moreover... this basically does not require Idarland to provide military expenses. On the contrary, Idarland can also obtain high profits through the whale hunting company. It is simply killing two birds with one stone!
