Chapter 846 Ivory Coast

After more than ten days of treatment, when those white people were about to recover, on a dark and windy night, the black slaves' riot broke out! They robbed the white sailors' muskets. Although they could not shoot, they gave the musketers no weapons for self-defense! Fortunately, several white sailors who did not sleep at night found some clues and warned them in advance to run into the depths of the continent with the benevolent Baron, which finally saved their lives. But two fast merchant ships were robbed by those ungrateful slaves!

After hiding in the jungle deep on the mainland for a few days, everyone returned to the bay in fear and found that it was empty.

"These damn black slaves! If Drake hadn't taught them how to drive a boat, how would this happen?!" The mate of the big merchant ship cursed resentfully.

"If Drake hadn't taught them to sail, we would have been killed by them all! Where do you think they will go if they don't have a boat?!" The captain of the merchant ship said helplessly.

The first mate turned blue when he heard the words. Yes, if these slaves hadn't sailed so that they could return to their Cape Verde Islands instead of running deep into the mainland. I'm afraid that these people can't avoid the pursuit of the indigenous people who have lived in the jungle since childhood! This is really thanks to Captain Drake for teaching them how to sail.

After the great success, Zhang Fan and the book demon took the Willis amphibious vehicle to chase the Hawkins fleet along the coast. They took the captains of the two merchant ships, and the others put them on standby for rescue.

A week later, Zhang Fan drove the strange car Willis to catch up with the fleet in a place called Freetown, which is a very good deep-water port. Although there is only one simple dock, it is enough to anchor Hawkins' fleet. The fleet has been here for five days. Waiting for a batch of gold transported from the depths of the mainland!

When Hawkins heard that the slaves had escaped, his anger almost overturned the whole fleet! Of course, he can't blame Zhang Fan's team, because more than a dozen black slaves under the baron also escaped! And in order to save these black slaves, he almost died.

"You idiots! There are so many muskets that will make these black slaves escape! It's just a bunch of pigs! No, it's more stupid than a pig! Those chimpanzees are much better than your idiots who can only pour rum into their stomachs!" The droplets in Hawkins' mouth sprayed on the faces of the two captains who came back to report. It was a pity that they had just recovered from a serious illness and their legs were still weak.

The whole musket team was infected with a terrible plague! If it hadn't been for Baron Shifan's superb medical skills, we would have died on the African continent! Those chimpanzees are more adaptable to those viruses than we do, and some of them recover themselves! You should know that rats and flies can spread viruses, but they rarely get sick by themselves!" The captain tried his best to defend himself and put the blame on the plague.

"It's a big mistake to save those dirty chimpanzees! Why don't they stink and rot on the beach!" Hawkins did not realize that he asked Zhang Fan to treat the black slaves.

"It's your idea to cure those niggas..." The captain of the merchant ship retorted in a low voice and almost made the angry Hawkins explode, which added fuel to the fire!

Drake in the cabin saw that the situation was not good and sneaked away. I'm afraid my cousin will blame himself for teaching those black slaves to drive a boat, right?! Drake shrank his neck and ran to Zhang Fan's boat, but met Aken coming towards him.

Aken grabbed Drake's skirt and asked loudly, "What kind of caravan are you?! How could our Baron have suffered such a heavy loss! Aren't you boasting that black slaves are risk-free? Fortunately, our baron didn't buy a lot, and our boat didn't stay there, otherwise we couldn't afford to sell your boy!"

"This is definitely an accident!" Drake cursed and swore, "I promise to make up for your losses!" Listen to me, Housekeeper Aken, the gold in this place is very cheap, and we can buy more..."

"Gold?" Aken let go of Drake.

In the past few days, he waited for Zhang Fan's news on the ship, and Xuanyuan Star Yoda didn't even get off the ship and left all the affairs to Drake to take care of. After meeting Zhang Fan, who had just returned today, he was worried about whether Hawkins would doubt himself and met Drake, so he took the lead. Unexpectedly, Drake was more guilty than him, which relieved Aaken.

"Yes, Mr. Aken, gold has no feet and will not escape. It can also make the cargo at the bottom of the ballast, and the sailing is more stable!" Drake looked at no one around and muttered a few words in Akan's ear.

"Diamond?!" Acon pretended to be surprised. His memory is so amazing that how could he not know that this real world belongs to the specialty of Sierra Leone - diamonds!

Drake quickly covered his mouth and said softly, "Don't let anyone know that the diamonds here are all raw ores, but I know a diamond acquirer in Antwerp. He has a way to find the best craftsman to process for you... You know that diamonds are the most beautiful of all gems! What kind of dragon are you looking for? This thing must be indispensable..."

"If the fleet goes further, it will reach the Ivory Coast, which is rich in African ivory, if you don't like it. There is also the 'Gold Coast' in front, which is not only full of gold, but also diamonds... There are also dazzling red sapphires. Although most of them are raw ores, I think you will like it..."

"Original mine?" Aken began to medit.

"Yes, raw ore! So not many people know, and the cheap price is like picking up for nothing..." Drake said softly, and he was eager to show loyalty to his owner.

Aken nodded and said to Drake, "I have recorded this, but the baron doesn't need Antwerp's craftsman. He has his own gem processing master... Oh, don't tell anyone about this..."

"The baron has his own master of gemstone processing?! What a surprise!" Drake was very surprised. "Of course, please rest assured that I will keep it a secret."

Aken waved his hand and sent Drake away. He immediately walked into the cabin and summoned Goblin Yoda. The little guy came immediately, "Aken, what did you say? There is a gemstone mine here!" Goblin is a branch of the dwarf family, with a unique talent and deep obsession with mining and gemstone processing!

"Diamond! African diamonds! You should have heard about it, right?!" Aken took out a handful of gems in the poisonous tooth dragon's nest, "These gems were made by the poisonous tooth dragon in Africa. Drake just revealed a message to me that there are a lot of diamond mines in this place. From today on, we will consume those black people, and we must..."

Yoda jumped up and interrupted Aken, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?! Be sure to find those ores! What are we waiting for?" He dragged Aken and ran out.

Goblin's gemstone identification ability is much stronger than his other abilities! Any stone is in his hand. As long as he touches it and smells it, he will know what it is. Sure enough, there are native diamond mines here, and Goblins found some diamond native ores from the indigenous markets. He was annoyed that he wasted five days in the cabin!

Maybe the strong fortune of Zhang Fan and the book demon brought good luck to everyone. On this day, the gold that Hawkins had waited for five days was finally shipped from the depths of the mainland. Although there are also Muslim countries on the African continent, generally black is very backward, the roads in the jungle are rugged, and transportation is very difficult.

And luckily, Goblin Yoda found a gray stone used to press the linen cloth in the car pulled by the African elephant transporting gold, which turned out to be a diamond ore! Although it is separated by a thick stone shell. Goblin's keen mineral perception still made him smell the lovely smell of diamonds!

"This is a large diamond with high purity!" Goblin summoned to Aken, "I can even feel it calling me! What a beautiful and pure gemstone!"

Those black Muslims who transported gold didn't care when they saw a small monster holding a big stone cling to the warehouse cloth, but kicked Goblin and the stone far away.

Goblin Yoda quickly rolled and climbed back to the ship with the diamond mine in his arms! In its small cabin, take a small helmet with a mining lamp, take out some tools, and start ponder the ore. Aken also came immediately when he heard the news. The two guys were busy in the cabin for most of the day. Aken finally saw a bright light flashing under the faint light of the goblin headlights...

............

"Where did you get these stones from?" Under the translation of the book demon, Aken inquired about the black man who transported gold.

"They don't speak clearly..." The book demon translated the words of the black man to Aken, "These should be abandoned ores. If you like them, there are many on the workshop..."

"What ore?" Aken's heart lit up.

"Of course it's a gemstone..." The black man took out a few light green, light red and white gems from his pocket and handed them to the rich man from the sea in front of him, hoping that these gems could be sold at a good price.

Goblin pulled Arken's trousers and said, "These are all olivine and rutile. In the future, rutile will be used for welding rods, which is of little value and the output is very large."

Aken's eyes turned, "I don't know if these beautiful-looking transparent gems can be used to coax the Western dragons."

"Ok, isn't there a lot of such gems in the nest of the poisonous tooth dragon..." The book demon laughed and said, "But diamond and cheap olivine and rutile are produced in the same kind of ore called pamberlite, which is formed by volcanic eruptions from the earth's crust. However, the amberlite that produces olivine and rutile is shallow, while the kimberlite that produces diamond is ejected by volcanoes from the deeper crust and wrapped in these shallow kimberlite ores. These indigenous people don't understand and think they are all the same gems. But this time we may have met a good diamond-producing Kimberlite cylinder..."
