Chapter 321 The seeds of doubt begin to germinate

“My good captain, you finally wake up.”

Harry said with a relieved look: “After experiencing so many coincidences, I now have reason to suspect that Ye Qing and the savages are in the same group, otherwise how could he have learned the aboriginal language so quickly? In fact, He doesn’t need to learn at all, and the reason why he arranged two injured people for him to be treated is to prepare for the exchange of supplies later!”

“But it’s obviously that we have bought a lot of fur at a very small price. Are these indigenous people going to give us gifts in a different way?” William Bradford said puzzledly.

“Harry saw that his captain was finally willing to listen to him at this time, so naturally he couldn’t be stumped by this question.

He immediately explained: “Captain, you are still too innocent, think about it, if Ye Qing and the group of wild people are aiming for all the supplies of my “five-seven-sevens”, would they care if we give more or less? ?”

“What does this mean?”

“It means that no matter how many materials we exchange for them, they don’t really care. What they want is to exchange all the materials on our side little by little, and then use them to deal with us. As long as we defeat us, we Isn’t everything theirs?”

“It doesn’t make sense. If we follow what you said, then we will not exchange with them in the future, then they will not take advantage.” Captain William still thinks Harry’s statement is too horrible.

Harry disagreed, and continued: “So, Captain, don’t you understand it yet? Perhaps it is because we exchanged too few materials that Ye Qing is willing to teach us the native language so that we can continue to talk to the natives in the future. exchange.”

“But don’t we mean to learn aboriginal languages?”

“So, this Ye Qing is too insidious. The problem with the most difficult clothes we currently need is that we lose our minds and enter his trap. Captain, I can guarantee that even if we don’t ask for it. To learn aboriginal languages, Ye Qing will definitely try to persuade us to learn.”

“Then what is the mystery of them leaving now?”

Harry responded: “I think this is Ye Qing and they are preparing for themselves. After all, if the indigenous people meet us, they are not inevitable. If we win, they will meet us again later. I can also hypocritically sympathize with our encounters, and then integrate with us again and launch another plot.”

“this…”



William Bradford was silent.


Although he believed Ye Qing very much, but Harry’s statement was somewhat extreme, but the question raised was not impossible.

Especially after so many coincidences and accidents, he actually believed Harry a little.

And after Harry said this, recalling that everything from the beginning of contact with Ye Qing and the others to the present, in William Bradford’s imagination, turned into a completely different story.

First of all, Ye Qing discovered the Mayflower early, and then deliberately pretended to be merchants who fell into the water where their ship passed by, and asked them to wait for others to rescue them on the ship, and then explore the reality of their own side. Fortunately, after he waited for the people to land ashore, he colluded with the indigenous people to attack these people and snatch materials.

But after boarding the ship, Ye Qing found that there were a lot of people on the Mayflower, and although the indigenous people seemed to be capable of fighting, once the fire broke out, the battle between the two sides must be very tragic because of the gap in weapons. Even if the indigenous people win in the end, the gain will not be worth the loss.

So Ye Qing had to change their strategy, using the method of gaining the credit of themselves and others, and let the others contact the indigenous people themselves.

After that, as Harry said, under the action of Ye Qing, the middleman, people on his side began to conduct frequent transactions with the indigenous people, and the indigenous people only needed to exchange something that was not valuable to them. Weapons and supplies on your side.

Eventually, when the materials on his side are consumed to a certain level, he will launch an attack and defeat himself and others in one fell swoop.

This story gradually took shape in William Bradford’s mind, and it seemed to be well-founded and logical.

But in fact, because of the role of Harry’s words, William Bradford had extremely serious doubts about Ye Qing, so he also automatically ignored the loopholes in this story.

For example, on the day when they met Ye Qing, the weather was extremely bad and the visibility was extremely low.William Bradford himself only discovered land 0 a few hours later.

Under such circumstances, how did Ye Qing first discover the Mayflower and prepare in advance?

For another example, with the strength of Ye Qing, Zhao Ling, and Funi, even if it is not a problem to deal with everyone on the Mayflower, if they want to rob, why bother to join forces with that group of natives?

For another example, these people on the Mayflower are actually poor and white. What are they looking for?

There are too many vulnerabilities of this kind.

But doubt is like a seed. Once it germinates in a person’s heart, it will quickly occupy the person’s mind and body, making it impossible for people to see things beyond doubt.

William Bradford is in this state now.

Even the more he thinks about it now, the more he feels terrified, and at the same time he deeply blames himself, almost because he made friends carelessly, causing the people on the Mayflower to suffer.

He slammed himself in his heart. He raised his head and found that Harry was still by his side. He hurriedly said: “If things are really as you said, it is really too bad. I blame me for being so innocent. , I didn’t even notice this, but now they are leaving, what do you think we should do?”2.5

“Captain, aren’t you going to hold a farewell party for them tonight? How about leaving this to me?” Harrison smiled.

“Do you have a way?”

At least “Let them be unable to leave tomorrow, so that the indigenous people will not act rashly.

“Well, you go, if someone stops you, just say this is what I mean.”

Harry was ordered to leave, but before going out, William Bradford stopped him: “By the way, don’t let the pastor know about this matter for the time being. He has been very close to Ye Qing recently. I’m afraid for a while. Can’t accept the fact that, in order for things to go smoothly, he still doesn’t know the inside story.”

“I know, Captain, don’t worry if you leave this to me.”

“Harry said, leaving William Bradford’s house, not knowing what he was planning.
