I tried this story, but it didn't end well for poor Bartolemeu and I encountered much misfortune on the way. I got to Martinque and traded the sandal for the silk, but on my way back I got caught in a storm and some silk fell overboard. The storm (as well as the fact that the rum fell overboard too) pissed the crew off, they mutinied, and me and my first mate were forced to kill them all. When I got back to the smuggler's town, Marin would not talk with me, so I figured it was because I lost the silk. So I set out to buy silk from a store somewhere. Unfortunately, another storm hit and my bark capsized. So I sailed the longboat to the nearest town, where moneyless I tried to raise funds for another ship by pickpocketing. I was caught and killed. And so ended the misfortune filled short career of Bartolemeu o Portugues.
Oh well. Time to start over.
