Chapter 32: The Charlotte Family

In the early morning, the sun rises.

The villa of the Charlotte family.

Wilsia woke up early, put on a brand new dress, and eagerly waited for today's sailing.

Coles was already waiting in the hall. After all, he only needed to sleep for three hours, and he got up earlier than his sister.

However, although both of them were ready, Ronald, as the head of the Charlotte family, was still picking out clothes for the trip.

A black tuxedo was placed in front of Ronald and he looked at it with a tangled face.

Although this black tuxedo better reflects the aristocratic temperament, it is a bit tight.

The white tuxedo was a bit too monotonous and looked old and ordinary.

How to choose?

"Father, hurry up!"

Velcia urged in the hall.

"Okay, right away." Ronald responded to his baby daughter and finally chose the black tuxedo in his hand.

Although the neckline is a bit narrow, black can better reflect seriousness and seriousness.

Then, he looked at the seven or eight exquisite top hats on the coat rack and was once again faced with the difficulty of choosing.

The red top hat seems a bit too flamboyant and conspicuous, which is not good.

Although the blue top hat is casual, it doesn't match the black tuxedo he is wearing. You can't wear it like this, otherwise you will be laughed at by others.

White hat...

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Wilsia held her face with her hands, looking impatient.

Coles has long been accustomed to his father Ronald's difficulty in making choices.

However, if this delay continues, the cruise ship from Rogge Town to the Sea Restaurant will leave directly.

In order to prevent his sister's anticipated trip to a sea restaurant from being ruined today, Coles helped his father make suggestions and strengthen his choices.

"That black top hat is good."

After listening to Coles' words, Ronald picked up the black top hat marked with a white feather and began to observe it in front of the full-length mirror.

"Son, are you sure?"

Coles spread his hands flat on the sofa like large fonts, raised his head and responded: "Sure, the black top hat paired with your tuxedo is gorgeous. Anyone with a discerning eye will know your noble status at a glance."

After Ronald heard this comment, he felt that the black top hat was indeed very suitable, so he simply selected it and put it on directly.

"As for the cane, is it better to have the standard white one, or the same model in black, or the gold-inlaid sunken wood cane? If you choose the white one, it will be a bit light, and the black one is also..."

Coles was a little confused.

"Why do you even think about the weight of the cane?"

Ronald said with a serious face: "There will inevitably be dangers at sea. If we encounter pirates and plunder, I can still use this cane as a secondary weapon to fight back, right?"

Coles was speechless: "But you don't even know how to use a flintlock. Even if you encounter pirates plundering you, what's the use of using a cane to fight back?"

Ronald rejected Coles's view.

"No, no, no, son, your thinking is incorrect. If we encounter pirates and don't resist, they will treat us as lambs to be slaughtered. We cannot be weak and lucky, we must have the courage to resist."

Coles really didn't expect that his father, who was once a winery employee, could now speak such great truth.

"Have you read anything recently?"

Ronald gestured slightly with the gold-encrusted cane in his hand and replied.

"Oh, I was reading a philosophy book called 'The Slaughter of the Lamb' recently. I learned these ideas from it, how about it?"

Coles didn't want to comment.

"The words have wandered away. Let's return to the choice. I think you have considered it very carefully. This is the most suitable one with a cane inlaid with gold."

…

ten minutes later.

The door to the villa was opened.

The Charlotte family officially went out.

The coachman who had been waiting for a long time on the road immediately drove the carriage towards the port of Rogge Town after receiving the three people.

Looking at the moving scene outside the carriage.

Coles sighed slightly in his heart.

Although the high-level carriages are very stable, the travel speed is still a bit slow, not as fast as the convenient cars of the previous life.

The Charlotte family's carriage arrived later than scheduled because the streets of Rogge Town were a bit crowded today, but luckily they arrived before the cruise departed.

In fact, with the current wealth of Charlotte's family, they can buy a boat to go to the sea restaurant, but this is a bit too troublesome.

Moreover, traveling at sea also requires a sense of ceremony, and it is more appropriate to go on a cruise with other people.

certainly.

Ronald would never admit that he chose to take a cruise because he wanted to save some money.

"Hush!"

As the carriage arrived at the port, the groom also grabbed the carriage and stopped it safely.

"Master Charlotte, we're here."

"Um."

Charlotte Ronald walked out of the carriage. The most eye-catching thing was the brown sunken wood cane inlaid with gold in his hand, followed by the black top hat with a white feather.

After coming to the ground.

Ronald is full of temperament, and anyone can tell that he is a rich man.

However, he couldn't help but cough slightly, and then put his hands on his neck. It was obvious that the tuxedo with a slightly narrow collar made him feel uncomfortable.

Coles immediately stepped out of the carriage. He stretched out his right hand and elegantly led his sister Vilciya out of the carriage.

When the younger sister also landed along the carriage steps, Charlotte's family of three finally arrived at the port.

On the sea, there was an extremely huge cruise ship docked. Its overall color was white and it had more than a dozen huge sails.

This huge cruise ship was enough to accommodate more than a thousand tourists, and there was no problem even if a huge banquet was held on the ship.

The crowd surged at the port, including tourists rushing to board the cruise ship, workers loading and unloading goods, and staff maintaining order.

Standing in this crowded crowd.

Coles suddenly had a sense of déjà vu of the "Titanic", but the huge cruise ship in front of him was far inferior to the steel giant ship in his previous life.

After all, the Titanic was known as the largest passenger ship in the world at that time with the most luxurious internal facilities, and it enjoyed the reputation of "never sinking".

There are two different types of sails and steam, and it takes many years to realize and progress.

However, the technology tree of the pirate world is a bit distorted. Even sea trains have appeared on the Grand Line, and the era of steam ships is estimated to be not too far away.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

When the cruise ship was about to depart.

Charlotte's family also stepped onto the boarding deck on time and boarded the white cruise ship.

The destination of this cruise ship is the restaurant on the sea, and on the way there, there are many entertainment facilities on the cruise ship for tourists to entertain themselves.

"Excuse me, is this the Charlotte family?" The crew member asked the last three people to board the ship.

"Yes." Ronald replied.

"Hello, the luxury room you ordered is here." The crew member smiled and began to lead the way.

"Okay." Ronald fiddled with the gold-plated cane in his hand slightly, not knowing how to hold it now.

After his eyes drifted to a noble man not far away, he also clamped the cane under his arm and began to walk forward arrogantly.

In this regard, Coles could only express helplessness.

Because the previous generations of the Charlotte family had declined, his father had not learned any aristocratic etiquette at all, and now he could only learn and use it now.

When Coles and the other two came to the reserved room, the cruise ship had already raised its anchor and began to spread its sails.

At the port.

The loading and unloading workers were temporarily free and began to talk about the gangs in Rogue Town.

"Have you heard about it? I heard that there was a huge riot in the gangs in the East District Casino last night."

"I know this. My home is not far from there. Later, Colonel Smoker brought the navy to arrive, but the gang forces had been destroyed by a mysterious man!"

"The Rogue Town gang was destroyed? Who has such a strong power?"

"Who knows, but it's good that the gangs have been destroyed. At least we don't have to be forced to pay some protection fees by them for the time being."

"Yes!"

What these port workers don't know is that.

The mysterious man who destroyed the Rogue Town gangs by himself has just boarded the white cruise ship with his family to the sea restaurant.

Only in the evening of the next day will he return to the port of Rogue Town on time.
