This man looked to be in his twenties, very young, and very handsome, but he did not have the so-called aristocratic temperament, at least not like the master of the Molik family.

Su Mo inquired a few words, but the other party looked arrogant and could not get anything out of his mouth.

We finally arrived at Earl Molik's Mansion, and the guards let him go without even asking any questions. This shows that this man is quite energetic. No wonder he was able to take him straight into the Earl's Mansion.

Su Mo waited and waited in a side hall.

Fortunately, he wore more than one hat. When the time came, he changed his hat to another one. At least he didn't show any flaws in front of the servants who were serving tea and water.

After waiting for more than two days, Su Mo saw Count Gresham Molick, who was similar to the rumors. He was in his fifties, had blond hair, and was dressed in exquisite and meticulous clothes.

If the young man was arrogant, when he came to the earl, he almost ignored everything.

"How much money did you bring, and what do you want from the Earl's Mansion?" Earl Gresham Molick didn't even intend to come up to speak. He sat directly on the main seat. The young man who brought Su Mo spoke on his behalf.

.

They say that noble etiquette and gentlemanly demeanor are just that.

In their eyes, Su Mo was a lowly pirate and a desperate outlaw.

"We hope that the Earl's Palace will help us rescue Mr. Martin. How about money, two million gold coins?" Su Mo stood up, touched the brim of his hat, and saluted the noble Earl.

"Two million!" the young man screamed strangely.

He is just a high-level errand boy in the Earl's Mansion. His sister is the Earl's mistress, so he can come and go freely. He has never seen such a large sum of money. The people he received in the past could spend 10,000 gold coins, which was already very generous.

"Martin, I know, but do you have two million gold coins?" The Earl looked calm, but he finally spoke.

Even though Captain Sam is one of the top ten pirates, and even though the pirates do business without capital all day long, in fact, their wealth is far less than that of the great nobles who set up factories on the shore to grow cotton.

What can be grabbed is basically wealth, and no one will take gold coins on a long voyage.

Normal shipping trade is a barter between merchants, taking things that are abundant in one place and selling them to places that are scarce, and the price paid is things that are abundant in other places but scarce in this place.

It is not in line with the principle of maximizing profits for me to take gold coins to a place to purchase and then bring them back.

What the pirates can steal is the goods. After they steal the goods, they must sell them to get gold coins. However, they cannot sell the goods at sea and can only sell them on the shore.

These illegal goods cannot be sold in normal markets and can only be sold to people who handle dirty goods.

Not to mention the high price, even if it is the original price.

Under normal circumstances, pirates' goods can be sold for 30% to 70% of the original price. This also involves the risk of being discovered and confiscated, and the pirates may lose all their money from their work.

It was hard to get the money, and it didn't belong to the boss.

Pirates are a "population-intensive" industry, and it is difficult to protect themselves without manpower, so big pirates have thousands of younger brothers working for them.

These guys cannot be shrouded in the halo of protagonists, they need to share the interests of the pirate industry chain.

The pirate boss worked hard for a month to make a deal, and more than half of it was given to his men to maintain their survival needs and stability.

If there is no business, the bosses will have to pay for these guys from their own pockets.

Captain Sam spent two million gold coins to get an assistant?

Earl Gresham Molick would not believe it, unless Martin was really Captain Sam's close lover, and loved him to the point of going crazy and dying.

Two men, disgusting or not!

"Lord Earl, can we talk alone?" Su Mo glanced at the young man and felt that it would be a pity for this young man to be silenced because he was so handsome.

"Go down." The earl waved his hand, and the young man walked around the ghost gate and finally exited.

"Okay, there are only two of us here, then I will open the skylight and speak frankly..." Su Mo said.

"Haha, is it possible that you want to assassinate someone?" Earl Gresham Molik shook his clothes and asked with a sneer. If he didn't have two million gold coins, he guaranteed that not only the guy in front of him would not survive tonight, but also those things.

Captain Sam, don't even think about living in peace in the future.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, you can read this letter." Su Mo raised his hand with a letter on his fingertips and slowly handed it to the other party.

Earl Gresham Morlick was shocked and confused, but he was so powerful that he didn't take such a pirate seriously at all.

Even if Captain Sam came in person, there was no way he could be killed in his heavily guarded living room. As long as he made the slightest noise, five hundred swordsmen would immediately rush in and kill him.

"Bang!" As soon as the letter was opened, Earl Gresham Morris immediately smashed the marble coffee table next to him.

The coffee table is like white jade, carved into a work of art that looks like a child. It is probably worth a lot of money. This is really a pity.

In the eyes of the Earl, the other party absolutely ignored his anger.

"Okay... okay..." Probably he was going crazy. After reading the letter, Earl Gresham Molick said several good words, but he quickly calmed down.

"Help us rescue Mr. Martin, what do you say now?" Su Mo asked.

"It's just a traitor. Just kill him." Earl Gresham Morlick said disdainfully. He was the Minister of Taxation and was no stranger to negotiations.

You must destroy your opponent's chips to the core in order to better demonstrate the importance of your own chips.

"Oh, your lord, do you want to say that there are three heirs in Master Todd's generation?" Su Mo didn't wait for the other party to respond, shrugged and asked leisurely: "But what does that have to do with you, your lord?"

You only have such a son, so don’t say stupid things about having another one. You are already so old, do you think you are Lord Macaulay?”

Earl Gresham Morlick was so angry that his eyes were popping with stars, but he couldn't refute.

The ninety-year-old guy has a new son, which has become a joke in the aristocratic circle. It's ridiculous that the old guy Macaulay is in the middle of the game, but he still thinks that he is still as good as before.

This pirate in front of you should not be underestimated!

"Perhaps you have an illegitimate child. I know that many nobles have illegitimate children, but what will the Duke think? Is he willing to let the family fortune that he has worked hard for end up in the hands of a humble illegitimate child?" Su Mo continued to make additional cuts.

.

These damn nobles should all die.
