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

Chapter 48 I don’t need the loyalty of pirates

"Let's forget this little incident. We don't care about one more body here anyway."

Facing the silent pirates, Tang Sen continued: "As you can see, I brought something."

He picked up a blood-stained gold coin on the ground and said, "If you want to get them, it's useless to rely on swords and guns, at least it's useless for me."

"They will only be used as rewards for those who surrender to me."

At this point, Tang Sen randomly named a pirate and said, "Do you want these gold coins?"

The pirate trembled all over, looked at Tang Sen at a loss, and begged for mercy: "Don't kill me!"

"I don't like to ask a second time." Tang Sen said lightly.

Hearing this, Tom had already raised the flintlock gun in his hand.

"I don't want to! I don't deserve it!" The pirate felt a chill on his back and shouted quickly.

Tom dropped the gun in frustration.

"I think so too." Tang Sen looked at him: "You are skinny and missing two fingers. A person like you has no value to me."

Not only did the pirate not feel resentful because of Tang Sen's humiliation, but he breathed a sigh of relief, licked his face and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang is right."

"I've heard of the rules of pirates." Tang Sen ignored him and continued to the crowd: "You guys don't have such a thing as wages. After being recruited on board, the spoils are distributed according to status and record. But I'm not a pirate, so I’m not going to follow pirate rules.”

"My rules are simple, I pay and you work hard."

"How much ability do you have, how much money do you get?"

He pointed to the gold coins on the ground and said: "These followers of mine will stay here. If you can defeat one of the followers, you can get one hundred gold coins from here. If you can defeat two of them at the same time, you can get Two hundred gold coins.”

"And so on."

"Do you understand the rules I mentioned?"

The pirates looked at each other, and there was an uncontrollable exchange of words among the crowd.

"Sounds good? One hundred gold coins is a lot of money!"

"You are crazy, you have to take your life. Those followers are devils who will never die!"

"That's right. How can you make such easy money?"

Tang Sen naturally heard these discussions, coughed slightly, and said: "The standard of defeat does not require you to kill my followers. Of course, you can't kill them either."

"As long as you can leave any fatal injuries on their bodies, you will pass."

Seeing the pirates' eyes light up again, Tang Sen continued: "By the way, let me add, what I just said is to get so much every month."

"One hundred gold coins per month?"

Someone screamed.

"Isn't this faster than robbing money?"

"It's a joke. How much income can you get from robbing a merchant ship? Even if you are fatter, it is only a few hundred pounds. The bulk has to be divided among the captains. You can only get a few pounds at most."

"Besides, there are more times when a fat sheep is not found for months at a time."

"No, I have to try. Who would be a pirate when there is such a good thing?"

"Look at those followers. They are all top players. Do you think you can beat them?"

Tang Sen allowed them to discuss for a while, then raised his hand and pressed it down.

The tavern quickly became quiet, the corpses on the ground were still hot, and the fear of Tang Sen was enough to make the pirates shut up.

"We'll be in Old Bernie for three days, and anyone can come and challenge us during those three days."

"Of course, I have to remind you that it's best to be a little self-aware about yourself."

Tang Sen said quietly: "My followers will not die, but you will really die. Don't expect them to show mercy to scum like you."

Turning around, Townsend shouted to Jack Sparrow who was hiding behind a vase in the corner, pretending that he didn't exist: "Captain Sparrow, you are a local snake, please keep an eye on me here."

"I'm not! I can't!" Sparrow jumped up in shock: "Why don't you lock me under the Dauntless? I would rather be with the smell of the prisoners' feet than stay here."

"It's not your choice, Captain Sparrow." Tang Sen waved his hand, and Tom strode over and picked up Sparrow.

"I regret it. If I had known better, I wouldn't have told you so much about Tetuga." He kept mumbling: "It's over. My reputation in Tetuga is completely over."

"How do you have a reputation? Are you in debt, or are you committing fraud everywhere?" Townsend curled his lips, not bothering to listen to what Jack Sparrow said. The great Captain Sparrow was found to be doing things for others, which would make Turtle The girl's confidence collapsed.

No one needed to direct them. The pirates began to clean up Old Bernie's Tavern skillfully. Tom walked over and whispered: "Mr. Tang, do you really want to recruit pirates to join the Army of the Undead?"

"These scum have no loyalty at all!"

"Don't worry, Tom." Townsend smiled: "I don't need their loyalty either."

"Tom, my enemies are very ferocious and dangerous. Facing them, even with the curse of immortality, requires great courage."

"So, I need more ferocious people. They will rush to the front and must not retreat. It is obvious that the pirates of Tetuga are stronger than Port Royal in this regard."

Tom hesitated and said, "But they are pirates and may rebel."

"Rebellion?" Tang Sen raised his eyebrows, smiled, and suddenly changed the subject: "Tom, I haven't asked you yet, how do you feel after receiving the curse?"

Tom was a little confused, but he said honestly: "To be honest, I don't feel very good, Mr. Tang."

"Although I am no longer afraid of swords and guns, I can no longer feel the joy of rum flowing on my tongue, I can no longer eat anything, I can no longer feel cold, and I can no longer feel warmth, especially at night - "

"When I looked at my palm that had turned into a skeleton, I even had a feeling that I hated myself."

He paused and said, "However, when I think that this is for Mr. Tang's goal, I think everything is bearable."

"I'm sorry, Tom." Tang Sen patted him on the shoulder: "You are the person I trust most. Only you can help me lead the army of the undead."

"I will not be ashamed of Mr. Tang's trust!" Tom stood up straight and said forcefully.

"So, do you understand?" Tang Sen said.

"What?" Tom looked confused.

"." Tang Sen was speechless.

Although this warrant officer from England's Royal Navy was indeed loyal, he was not exactly smart.

Tang Sen could only explain: "If even you can't bear the curse, then do you think those pirates who are used to freedom and use rum, food and women as the source of motivation for living can endure it?"

"No, I think they'll go crazy," Tom surmised honestly.

"Yeah, they're going to get crazy."

Tang Sen said quietly: "In order to lift the curse, they are willing to do anything, and the key to lifting the curse is in my hands."

"Either they overthrow me, or they direct their madness at my enemies."

"A double-edged sword?" Tom suddenly understood: "Is this why Mr. Tang asked me to select people in the fleet who are loyal enough to Mr. Tang in advance? We people will become Mr. Tang's shield and contain those pirates?"

"Can you do it? Tom." Townsend asked.

"Of course! Mr. Tang! Those pirates can't cause any trouble before I die."

Tang Sen smiled: "What's interesting is that you can't die now."

The second round of recommendations will start tomorrow. As promised, there will be more updates tomorrow.
