Cosa succede
- Dantès wins the captain’s trust, conceals his identity, and discovers his changed appearance after a haircut and shave in Leghorn.
- He accepts three months of employment and passes Monte Cristo without landing because he lacks equipment and fears suspicion.
- Smuggling voyages bring earnings, but a clash with customs officers leaves Dantès wounded and largely unmoved by another man’s mortal injury.
- Jacopo nurses Dantès and refuses payment, prompting affection and lessons in navigation.
- After two and a half months, Dantès plans to hire a vessel but cannot devise a solitary landing.
- The captain proposes Monte Cristo for a profitable exchange, and Dantès supports the plan while concealing his joy.
