People in the heavens are as rich as the enemies of the country

Chapter 16 You can’t rob me if I don’t give it to you

Port Royal, Marina.

Although Tang Sen's game has lasted for five days, its popularity has not decreased but has increased. There are not many entertainment activities in this era, not to mention that it is not just entertainment, but everyone has the opportunity to participate and become rich overnight. Chance.

Not only Port Royal, but also citizens from several islands around Port Royal flocked here. The smart merchants gave up their goods and instead carried travelers who wanted to come to Port Royal, making a lot of money. .

This also caused the originally spacious Port Royal pier to be crowded. Many people could only stand on the boats and watch from a distance. Later, even the sea surface was filled with ships. Port Royal has never been so lively and prosperous.

Governor Swann has always been smiling these days. The large influx of people has brought not only abundant taxes, but also enviable political achievements. For a long time, he has even been able to go one step further.

The only unhappy person is Colonel Norrington. Recently, his soldiers have been distracted, and they are always thinking about running to the dock. The name that appears most frequently on the Royal Navy fortress is "Mr. Tang". Colonel Norrington's ears are all over the place. Already cocooned.

As an officer in charge of the fleet, the income from Port Royal meant nothing to him. Too many people would be trouble. He had to spend more energy identifying pirates among citizens and increase patrols in the offshore waters. number of times——

He had heard that many pirate groups had come up with daring ideas, and those black sails were frequently wandering around.

If it weren't for Governor Swann's dissuasion in his ears all day long, and the upcoming promotion ceremony, Colonel Norrington would really want to arrest the Easterner who has caused him too much trouble, and let him know that there are people in this land. Money can't do whatever you want, and the Royal Family of England will always be above money.

Of course, the main reason is that he cannot let a stupid Easterner affect his friendly relationship with Governor Swan and lose the opportunity to marry Elizabeth.

"Hurry up. Once the promotion ceremony is over, we will send this Oriental man out of the Caribbean Sea immediately."

Colonel Norrington looked at the soldiers in front of him who couldn't help but glance towards the dock, and he swore in his heart: "If we let him stay here any longer, the soldiers will look down on the salary of the Royal Navy."

There are only a few hundred soldiers in Port Royal. Under the rotation system, almost most of the grassroots soldiers have received the so-called "friendly gifts". Some officers even skipped work to receive them, and their wallets were bulging.

"Too sick!"

Norrington couldn't figure out why this Oriental man was so extravagant. He spent tens of thousands of pounds in just a few days. Apart from causing trouble for himself, there was no point at all!

"Are you sure you want to give up the reward of twenty gold coins and choose to challenge for the chance to win five hundred gold coins?"

At the end of another round of the game, Townsend stood in front of the winner and emphasized: "You need to know that if you fail the challenge, you will get nothing."

The winner was a thin middle-aged man with a pale face. He spoke in a weak tone and nodded seriously: "Mr. Tang, I'm sure of it."

"I'm seriously ill. Twenty gold coins can't cure me. I have to work hard."

"I'm sorry to know this." Tang Sen sighed and said, "I respect your choice."

He raised his voice, looked around at the citizens, and said, "Gentlemen, it seems that the seventh challenger has appeared!"

"At the same time, I declare that this is the last challenger and the game ends for today."

"Tomorrow morning, I will play the final game here to decide who among the seven challengers is the last lucky one to win five hundred gold coins."

Everyone froze.

Is this the last day?

Many of them have worked hard to get here, and some have even lost everything, just for a chance to make a comeback, but the game is over before they even get a chance to participate in the game?

They watched as gold coins were delivered to the hands of the lucky ones like running water, and saw that wealth that they could never reach in their lifetime was placed in front of them. And now, this Mr. Tang directly announced that this wealth has nothing to do with him anymore?

"No! Please don't be so cruel!"

"One more round, one more round!"

"Mr. Tang! I came from a far away place and I just arrived! Please give me a chance!"

"Mr. Tang! My mother is about to die of illness. Please, don't stop your game!"

"."

The sounds of pleading, roaring, and crying instantly surrounded Tang Sen.

Tang Sen looked at the various situations in the world with cold eyes, already anticipating their reactions.

In other words, this is the effect he wants.

He raised his hand and pressed down, and the sound suddenly stopped from near to far.

It wasn't until there was silence all around that he cleared his throat and said slowly: "Gentlemen and ladies, I can hear your appeal, and I am also willing to help you. After a few days of getting along, I believe everyone knows me well. "

"I'm not stingy with money. For me, if money can help others, that's my luck."

"But, I'm a traveler and I've been in Port Royal for too long. It's time to move on to my next stop."

"If we are destined, we will meet again on the sea."

These words obviously did not satisfy everyone. Soon, the louder noise completely covered up Tang Sen. Even impulsive people tried to rush up and snatch the gold coins placed on the dock.

Bang——

The sound of a gunshot made everyone who was trying to fish in troubled waters startle and freeze.

Around Tang Sen, dozens of marines surrounded him, their guns pointed at the people trying to rush up.

Warrant Officer Tom put down the muzzle of his gun that was rising into the sky with green smoke, and shouted in a cold voice: "You white-eyed wolves, you can try it. If you attack citizens in Port Royal, we have the right to kill them on the spot."

"."

Faced with the threat of death, no one dared to speak out.

Townsend patted Tom on the shoulder and said, "Don't be so serious, Tom."

Then he gently said to everyone: "I don't want my impression of Port Royal and the image of English citizens to be affected by some people with ulterior motives mixed in with everyone."

"I believe most people are friendly."

"But I hope gentlemen know one thing. What I give out belongs to you. If I don't give it to you, you can't take it away."

His face was still gentle, but for some reason, everyone suddenly felt that Mr. Tang, who was usually friendly, was suddenly full of threats.

Only then did they realize that if such a rich man got angry, no one could bear the consequences.

Tang Sen paused, looked around, and suddenly laughed: "It's not my style to end the day in such an unpleasant way."

"After all, tomorrow is a special day. I hope gentlemen can greet tomorrow with a happy attitude, so I can tell you some good news."

"Although the game session in Port Royal is over, I decided to select some lucky people who can continue to participate in my game and realize their dream of getting rich overnight."

"Of course, please let me keep the specific selection method a little mysterious."

"Gentlemen, let's meet tomorrow."
