Chapter 61 Politicians Come
On this day in history, Rome Island got at least 1 billion gold coins, or at least 200,000 lions.

With a huge roar, the Black Pearl was launched, and the trembling hull signaled that it would leave the dock, leave the Mahu Port in the province of Thunder Province, and return to Rome Island full of slaves.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute! We are going to get on the boat! We are going to Rome Island!" Two ragged people on the dock ran to the Black Pearl, which was about to leave the port.
"Who are you? Do you have a boat ticket or do you want to board the ship to work on Rome Island? The sailor on the Black Pearl threw down the soft ladder and looked at the two people and asked.
"We are looking for the island owner of Rome Island. He knows my master." The middle-aged man among the two climbed onto the deck and gasped.
At this time, the sailor on the ship found that the middle-aged man was carrying a dagger. With a bang, the two sailors pulled out their swords and asked loudly, "Don't you know that you can't carry weapons on board?" Several Romer soldiers in the distance heard the sound and looked this way at the same time. They vigilantly pressed the hilt of the sword with their hands and stopped talking and came over.
"We didn't mean any harm. We just came here to find Rudolf Arcado." The young man gasped and said, obviously both of them were tired after running all the way.
"The island lord is not something you can see. He is so noble that he has to see many big shots every day. How can he have time to see you!" A sailor curled his lips and said.
"Don't care whether he can see Lord Rudolph or not, let's put down their sword first!" The guard who rushed over said.
"Okay, okay, okay, don't do it. We'll just give it to you." Under the eaves, they had to bow their heads, and the two quickly threw their protective daggers to the soldiers.
"What's going on?" Old Tom came over and said, "Who are you?"
"My name is Ca Vera, and he is my bodyguard's name is Buck. We are from Bello Province." Vera straightened her messy hair, rubbed her hand against her clothes, and reached out to old Tom.
"So, Mr. Vera, can you tell me what's wrong with you coming to this ship?" Old Tom did not stretch out his hand, but stared at the two men in front of him with caution.
"Let's turn to Mr. Rudolph Arcado." Vera withdrew her hand awkwardly and said with a smile. A mouthful of white teeth was exposed.
"I have to say that you are lucky. Do you have any skills? I will introduce you to the relevant person in charge of the island. Old Tom will take some homeless people back to Rome Island every time to enrich the number of civilians on the island.
"No, no, no, Mr. Captain, we are going to see Mr. Rudolph Arcado. I know him." Vera quickly clarified her purpose. He didn't come to Rome, he came to Arcado.
"Hahahaha." Old Tom laughed. The soldiers and sailors behind him also laughed.
"Sir, why are you laughing?" Vera didn't understand the current situation, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
"Mr. Vera, do you know how many people say they know Lord Arcado every day and then ask us to take them to see Mr. Rudolph?" Old Tom asked Vera with a smile.
"After seeing Mr. Rudolph, some of them want to contact business, some are praying for charity, and some are even just worshipping and want to see themselves. So Mr. Vera, now Mr. Rudolph has not received outsiders at will. Old Tom looked at Vera with mocking eyes.
"So, Mr. Captain, did anyone see Mr. Rudolph to be loyal to him? Is he willing to sacrifice his life and challenge the gods for the world he dreams of? Vera looked at old Tom and looked straight at him with unwavering eyes.
"It seems that this time we met a guy who really knew Rudolph." Old Tom said seriously, and he waved his hand: "You give them two body-changing clothes, go to the food cabin, get them something to eat, arrange two hammocks in the sailor's rest cabin, and rest with the sailors in the evening. Mr. Vera, if you need anything, you can talk to the sailors on the ship. The cabin below is red. Don't enter the door randomly. You will be killed by the soldiers on alert.
"Thank you, Mr. Captain." Vera took a breath, and a nervous heart finally relieved. He could immediately see Rudolph Arcadol.
Two days later, the Black Pearl took the fleet to the wharf of Jianye Port. Old Tom, with seven or eight guards, took Vera and Buck to Arcado's castle.
Rudolf Arcado, do you remember me? Ka Vera." As soon as they met, Vera looked at Arcado with a smile and asked.
"Villa, you came earlier than I thought, and you are much more embarrassed than I thought. Has anything happened?"
I didn't completely follow your arrangement. I don't believe that you can predict the future, so after I went to Bello Province, I spent money to donate a local civil service, and then worked hard to realize my ideals. I managed the people under my rule well. Vera did not hide anything and said that she did not follow the original agreement: "When I am proud, disaster comes to me."
"The local clergy began to blackmail me, for which I was taken away thousands of gold coins by those greedy parasites, and then my policy was rejected by the local pastor, who told me that Adams in the north was in turmoil and my idea of reducing the tax collection could not serve the war. These damn sticks, they are simply killing chickens to get eggs!" Vera continued to say angrily.
"Then, why did you fall like this?" Arcado asked with a smile.
"Finally, they dismissed me and confiscated my father's property. They said that my loose policy encouraged those farmers and businessmen to refuse to pay taxes. My father argued and was killed by those damn beasts." After saying that, Vera began to cry.
"It seems that you have essentially known this evil world, so what are you going to do in the future?" Arcado patted Vera on the shoulder and asked.
"I, the last person of the Ka family, Ka Villa, hereby swear that I will serve Rudolf Arcado all my life, sacrifice my life, drip my blood, and vow to help Rudolph Arcado change the world." Vera knelt in front of Arcado and swore loudly.
"I, Buck, the three generations of servants of the Ka family, hereby swear to serve Rudolf Arcado all my life until his death or the end of the world." Buck also knelt down and swore after his master.
In 36179, the creation calendar, on April 26, 1574, the man known as the wisdom sword villa came to Rudolph Arcado.
