Chapter 43: Dewey's Plan to Get Rich


The Black Pearl ship that was already wearing a new flag, turned around and sailed towards the nearest port.


After a day and a half of traveling, the former pirate ship met the imperial naval battleship that had previously chased them for two days.


After the confrontation, the officers of the imperial naval warships were surprised to see that the pirate flag on the mast had been replaced by a strange flag.


The men later reported that the meaning of the flag image on the pirate ship was ‘surrender’. They are not pirates.


The next business becomes easier.


The captain of the imperial naval battleship gave the order and received the ‘surrender’ pirate ship, then discovered that the Young Master of the Rollin family who had been missing for days was on that pirate ship.


The Young Master even captured the pirates.


The imperial naval captain rounded his eyes. Under imperial law, the nobility was entitled to dispose of his captives. Exceptions to traitors of the state who commit major crimes.


However, for a matter as trivial as Young Master Dewey dealt with some pirates, the captain of the naval battleship was willing to let it go.


After all, he was the Young Master of the Rollin family, the eldest son of Earl Raymond.


Earl Raymond, who had served as admiral of the imperial naval expeditionary fleet, had many networks in the imperial navy.


The naval captain would certainly not make things difficult for Earl Raymond's son.


After the two ships stopped side by side, the esteemed Young Master Dewey moved onto the battleship in a canoe. For safety, the captain of this battleship even sent two armies of soldiers to monitor the pirates on the pirate ship.


“Young Master Dewey!” The captain of a naval warship is a typical naval soldier. He was not wearing armor, just a uniform. His body is short, his skin is dark, his hands are big. “Our entire fleet has already spread out to look for you in the nearby waters. The fleet lowered orders that anyone who found your ship could get a month's vacation at Walker Harbor. God bless! I got a gift this big,” he said ending with laughter.


Dewey was astonished. The whole fleet is looking for him?


Although his father used to be a high-ranking admiral in the navy and was now the second important person in the imperial military, the man disliked him. It seemed that he couldn't possibly search for it in a big way.


Confused, Dewey and the captain spoke in the captain's room. Dewey immediately understood a few things.


It seemed that he had become the imperial military's bargaining tool against the Magic Union.


If it finds him, a big problem can be reduced.


If it did not find him, the conflict between the military and the Magic Union would become severe. Everyone doesn't want to see that.


“Both of these people ...” The captain looked at Vivian and Joanna who were behind Dewey.


“My friends,” lied Dewey.


He couldn't possibly say that, “They two were witches messing up the military camp. Did you see that girl in the armor? He almost killed me! He was the one who attacked the local military camp!”


If he said that, it might cause chaos.


Joanna's magic has fully recovered. If he wanted to, he could kill everyone on these two ships easily.


The captain was not stupid, but he did not ask further, but rather missed the topic. “Then, rest. I will prepare food and water. I'll prepare whatever you need. Don't hesitate. My brother once served in the imperial expedition fleet. He was a soldier under your father's command. I also have great respect for Mr. Raymond. He is the pride of the imperial navy.”


Before exiting, the naval captain could not help but ask, “I'm sorry for my sassness, Young Master Dewey. What are you going to do with those pirates? They are fugitives, you ..”


“They are my prisoners. I'm entitled to handle them, aren't I?” dewey said with a smile. “It just so happens that I will have a fleet and will put them in my fleet. I need some experienced sailors. Besides, I quite liked their ship.”


Actually the naval captain wanted to remind Dewey that he had not inherited the title officially, so should not have a private army.


However, actually all the descendants of the imperial great family would obtain the title. It's all just a matter of time. Who's really going to bother him?


“I've named that ship with ‘Black’ Pearl. It will be my fleet,” Dewey continued with a smile.


“Then, what is the name of your fleet? Oh, no, not that I want years, but anyway they're pirates. Even though it is already yours now, after arriving on the mainland, I will have to fill out some documents and cross them off the naval extermination targets. So I need to know your fleet name.”


Dewey chuckles. He pulled the captain walking to the deck of the ship to see the Black Pearl ship that was next door.


“Do you see the flag on that ship?” Dewey smiled happily.


“See.” The captain was astonished. “I've never seen such a weird flag. What means?”


When someone from Dewey's previous life saw the flag, he would definitely faint.


On the flag there is a large round letter ‘M’.


“McDonald,” Dewey replied without changing his expression. “My fleet name is ‘Mada McDonald. You can record this name in.” file


Seeing the captain leaving in confusion. Dewey thought, how funny it would be if someday the flag of ‘McDonald’ fluttered in dozens of warships.


After sailing for several days at sea, the two ships arrived at Walker Harbour, a port town on the east coast of Lille Province.


It is a typical coastal port city as it is bow-shaped naturally, also being the best sheltered port. Various merchant ships and privately armed merchant ships of various sizes were moored there. The piers were full of sailors coming down for fun, busy employees, tax collectors, porters, and freight carriers.


There were also large and small-scale pubs and prostitutes dressed conspicuously. They will drain the last coins from the pockets of the sailors who have been at sea for months.


After the two ships stopped, Dewey and the others finally arrived on the mainland.


Dewey felt his feet slightly limp when stepping on land for the first time after a few days at sea.


Fortunately, he managed to survive. Other than that ….


Dewey reviewed the smile and touched his head without changing his expression.


He was wearing a beautiful hat and had changed into a navy officer uniform without a rank mark. He looked like a handsome young naval officer, just too young and skinny.


Walker Port is a civilian port, not a naval port. There is no navy here. The nearby local garrison army camp had a thousand infantry.


This prosperous port city provided a lot of taxes to the empire every year. Maritime trade also provides many advantages.


Dewey came out of the harbor and immediately felt the prosperity here.


This place is different from the empire that feels grand and full of luxurious atmosphere, also different from the peaceful harmonious cities on the Rollin Plain.


His first impression of this place was a lot of people.


There are different types of people on the road. Drunken sailors, pot-bellied businessmen, as well as horse-riding tax collectors.


Both sides of the street are shops.


Dewey even saw the Magic Union stronghold in this port city.


Under the protection of the naval army, Dewey was not free enough to get around. He immediately returned to the inn. The entire inn was rented by the navy.


Well then, what's next?


Dewey waited patiently.


Two days later, Knights Robert, Joline and the others arrived. After getting word from the Magic Union with magic, they immediately rushed here without sleeping.


Knight Robert looked thinner and tired, also very guilty. Joline looked pale. The wounds on his body had just recovered. After traveling, he was also very exhausted.


These two men were carrying a thousand Rollin family cavalry.


At the same time, they also brought bad news.


Dewey's disaster puts the Rollin family at the height of a conflict with the Magic Union. In this kind of situation, despite not wanting to become enemies of the Magic Union, the Rollin family was forced to fight the Magic Union for honor and dignity.


It put Earl Raymond in a difficult situation.


And according to the Earl, all of this was due to his eldest son.


Not only did Robert's knight bring in a cavalry army to protect Dewey, but it also carried the Earl's harsh rebuke and orders.


Dewey had to immediately return to the castle on the Rollin Plains, then was barred out for a year. His allowance was also cut for one year, so there were no more three hundred gold coins per month. Dewey is also prohibited from interfering in any property in the family's territory.


During his sentence, Dewey was not allowed out of the castle and had to obey the old housekeeper in the castle. That's punishment.


If Dewey causes problems for the family again, the punishment given may be more severe.


But Dewey doesn't care. He had expected that he would be punished by the Earl.


Banned for a year? Coincidentally Dewey plans to settle in the castle for the next year because he needs a lot of time to digest. Huh!


Three hundred gold coins per month? Dewey doesn't care anymore.


“I am forbidden to go out and interfere with family property. That only? There's nothing else? In that case, I am not forbidden to do anything or send anyone to do anything, right?”


Robert shakes. “Um .. should not.”


“Good.” Dewey smiled with satisfaction. “Oh, Joline, have your wounds healed? Real nice. I happen to have one thing that I have been thinking about for a long time and it seems like it can only be left to you.”


Dewey then sent everyone out and invited Joanna.


“Joanna, look. He's your partner.” Dewey smiled as he said, “You won't change your mind, right?”


Joanna felt helpless. “Alright, boy. I owe you my life. But remember, only this time. I'm just helping you do this.”


Dewey's request to Joanna was very easy, namely sailing on the Black Pearl ship. His job was to rob all the found pirates.


Dewey thought that now he could not do business, had no capital, nor was he experienced in maritime trade. The allowance has even stopped being given. Where did he get the money for magic experiments and build his McDonald's Fleet?


After racking his brain, he found the answer.


Rob.


Robbing the imperial navy? Dewey doesn't have the guts.


Robbing a merchant ship? Dewey doesn't want to cause any more trouble.


In that case, he could only rob pirates.


Robbing pirates did not prohibit the law, even including behavior supported and appreciated by the imperial navy. The one who gets the heads of some famous pirate captains will be given a huge reward.


Therefore, he made use of Joanna who was a master and ship of the Black Pearl who was familiar with pirate circles to sail.


Others could not find the pirates, but Captain Jack Sparrow certainly could. After all, they were pirates before.


So, the next business will be easy.


Rob.


Robbing money. Those pirates must have had savings made by robbing for years. Their savings could happen to fill the void of Dewey's current pockets.


Robbing people. Dewey can continue ‘menawan’ the pirates. Rebellious pirates could be sold to the imperial navy for gifts, while obedient ones could serve as his personal fleet.


Robbing ships. Dewey could not accept that his McDonald's Fleet only had one Black Pearl ship. He had no money to buy a ship, then could only seize a pirate ship.


Joanna's power is the greatest guarantee.


How to buy and sell without capital like this certainly occurred to others as well. However, who could make a great magician help him do this at all?


The witches are acting haughty. Even the palace minister could not necessarily ask for their help.


Fill the bag as soon as legally possible. That's Dewey's mind.


It cannot be fully handed over to Joanna. Joanna would only help him for three months because she owed Dewey a favor. Three months later, the girl was gone.


When persuading him, Dewey certainly did a bit of cheating, like looking into his eyes.


Therefore, Joline is the best candidate to do this. These female knights had experience of adventure, robbing, catching people, getting gifts and so on. He was most familiar with such a job.


In addition, with the family name Rollin, the navy out there will not make it difficult.


After arranging everything, the magical girl and the female knight set off. At this moment, someone who had been waiting for a long time outside the door finally ran in. As soon as he entered, he knelt before Dewey and hugged his feet.


“My dear Lord, I am Sia, your most loyal servant.”


Dewey took a quick look at the former horse feeder, then smiled as he said, “Oh, my dear Sia, long time no see.”


Sia suffered quite a bit over the past few days. He knew very well that everything he had right now was thanks to Young Master. If the Young Master had an accident, he would probably return to be a horse-feeding giver.


“Already, Sia. You're dirtying my pants. Take care, we'll go home.”
