Jing Zhengwei had the idea of "praying mantis stalking cicada" from the beginning.
Not refusing, not taking the initiative, not admitting, Jing Zhengwei not only wanted to take advantage of all the benefits, but also wanted to build a chastity memorial. He can be said to be an old capitalist. He was like a team leader who didn't do his homework. After waiting for the desk to copy the homework, he asked
The teacher reported it and took the opportunity to take away his deskmate’s homework and give it to himself.
From the very beginning, when Jing Zhengwei noticed that Magnolia was colluding with the fleet, he had already sentenced Magnolia to death and had no intention of keeping Magnolia. But as the saying goes, make the best use of everything, and don't pull it until you can't hold it in anymore.
Shit, anyway, Magnolia is a pig that is killed if it is killed early and killed late, so why not just fatten it up before killing it?
Jing Zhengwei's original plan was to wait for Bai Magnolia and the others to conduct two more trades before catching them all in one fell swoop. His judgment on Bai Magnolia and the others was quite accurate - when they were ready to enjoy the glory and wealth and wash their hands in the golden basin, Jing Zhengwei would stop them.
Take away their golden basin and send them to surrender.
This is the boss’s caring heart for his employees.
Of course, the reason for "slave trade" would not be used on the surface. After all, it is not illegal, and there are several chambers of commerce making money from it. Jing Zhengwei plans to use the name of "colluding to defraud capitalists" to turn them over to banks.
As for the Blood Association, and how the Silver Blood Association will use them, that has nothing to do with Jing Zhengwei, a clean and law-abiding entrepreneur.
Le Yu sighed quietly.
"Even if you praise me like this, I won't be happy. Besides, your words can't move me either."
Bai Magnolia immediately knelt down and said: "I am willing to be the young master's pawn and get all the benefits for the young master without damaging his wings."
Hei Qi also knelt down after hearing this. Mr. Wu paused and slowly knelt down as well. Only Baolong, whose head was still bleeding, cursed loudly: "My money has been robbed, and you still want to be his dog!? You guys?"
Are you cheap?"
Le Yu was also a little curious: "Don't you think I will leave you as a scapegoat sooner or later? Why are you still willing to do things for me?"
"When the world changes, things will change. When things change, be prepared for changes." Bai Magnolia said calmly: "Isn't the young master greedy for the profits of the slave trade? The young master is in an embarrassing situation in the Jing family. Only a large amount of money can make the young master more powerful in the fight for the master of the family.
More chips.”
"Since the young master has chosen to show off with us at this time, it means that the young master is no longer satisfied with a one-time harvest, but needs a safe, reliable, and continuous gold mine. As long as we continue to 'hidden' the slave trade from the young master, I am prepared to
The yin and yang ledger can clear the suspicion for the young master, and the young master can make a lot of profits without damaging his reputation. "
Baolong shook his head, looked at Bai Magnolia and others and cursed: "You are crazy, what is the difference between doing this and kneeling down to beg for food? And kneeling down to beg for food, you can still survive. If you do this, it means that all the money belongs to him, but the pot is all his."
It’s all ours, you’re kneeling like this and eating shit! Eat shit!”
Le Yu said nothing, but his expression clearly agreed with Baolong's opinion.
Magnolia shook her head: "The civil war in Tianji will continue for at least two or three years. In these two or three years, no one knows what will happen. And as long as the civil war in Tianji does not end, the master will be able to use us. In the end,
The important thing is, even if the young master drinks soup and eats meat, the juice flowing out from his fingers is still wealth that we cannot earn in decades."
Le Yu asked: "But these are all in the mirror after all. Once there are signs of unification in the sky, your end will be extremely miserable."
"Not necessarily," Bai Magnolia seemed to have no worries: "Even if the civil war in Skyrim subsides, the warlords who have good relations with the Silver Blood Society may be unified. We slave traders are just icing on the cake for the rulers, not a necessity to provide help in times of need.
, the Silver Blood Society does not necessarily need these 'gifts' from us."
"Moreover, as the number of Shining People in Skadi increases, we might also be able to find a foothold in Skadi. Master, have you ever thought about how the most unruly Skyrim people now have to survive in order to survive?"
The natives who are committed to Skadi, but as time goes by, won’t they become disloyal?”
Le Yu was shocked. This was an angle that Jing Zhengwei had never thought of.
Yes, Skadi is a vast land with few people. Trading slaves in such a large amount like this group of slave merchants is almost equivalent to migrating for the people of Skyrim. When the number of people in Skyrim reaches a certain level, the landowners of Skadi will face a backlash.
"But what does this have to do with you? You are just a slave trader, and the 'gratitude' of those Skyrim people to you is definitely no less than to the landlord of Scardy."
"Hate does not last forever, only interests last forever." Bai Magnolia smiled and said: "Sir, when the civil war in the world ends, there will inevitably be exiled warlords, are you right?"
Hearing this sentence, many people were stunned. Le Yu blinked: "Do you think..."
"Yes, just as the young master thought. If I can assist the exiled warlords to reach Skadi, liberate the Skyrim slaves, and even further establish a regime belonging to the people of Glorious Skyrim in Skati..."
Magnolia's eyes were full of madness: "When the time comes, I will become a distinguished guest of Tianji and the Silver Blood Society. As for my past slave trading deeds, I will only be recorded by historians as 'a conscientious businessman who assisted the people of Tianji to escape.'
.Black will become white, businessmen will also become officials, and history will be written by those who live to the end."
First, transport the population through the slave trade, and then transport the army to liberate the slaves to start an uprising war, and gain status and benefits from the war... Such a wild idea made Le Yu stunned when he heard it.
Jing Zhengwei only saw the first floor and thought Magnolia was on the second floor. Unexpectedly, Magnolia was on the fifth floor!
Bai Magnolia turned to look at the crew and said loudly: "You bunch of sea bastards, are you willing to live like humans are not humans and ghosts are not ghosts? Don't you want to live like a noble master, with rich clothes and fine food every day, and marrying a married woman?
If you have seven or eight wives and give birth to a bunch of sons, others will respect you when you go out, instead of like now... Do you think those bosses, guys and girls who smile all over your faces mean they respect you? No! They know that you are
A group of dead people who have no future today, they just laugh at the money in your hands, and they will make fun of you when you die!"
The crew members were so excited by what Bai Yulan said that even Baolong didn't refute, and Mr. Wu gave a wry smile.
"There is no room for us to survive in Xuanzhu County, unless you are willing to live like ants. If you want to be a big boss and have food to eat and clothes to eat, then you have to work hard! Go gamble with your life!"
"Everyone can gamble with their lives, but many people don't even have the opportunity to gamble. And this is the opportunity I found for you - swear allegiance to the prince to the death, the wealth will belong to the prince, and the fate will be mine!"
Bai Magnolia looked at Le Yu: "Master, if we lose the bet, you will have no losses and enjoy all the benefits; and if we win the bet, you will also gain a loyal overseas ally. Of course, no matter what I say in return, Master
You must also think that I am farting. But Sijiadi and Dongyang District are across the sea, and trade is frequent. If one day, Yulan comes to power in Sijiadi, and the young master becomes the head of the Jing family, we will be natural allies in the shopping mall, and interests are greater than any agreement.
Be firm."
"So, sir, please believe in my determination——"
"For the benefit of the young master, and for our future, I am willing to be the young master's pawn!"
The other crew members knelt down one after another, and even Baolong was no longer domineering. Everyone said in unison: "I am willing to be the master's pawn!"
The sound echoed in the warehouse, and the guards looked at each other. The tense atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed. Many people secretly put down their guns, including Mi Die and Li Sang.
They originally thought tonight might be a bloody night, but they didn't expect it to have a happy ending.
Le Yu looked at each crew member and saw no hatred in their eyes, only unwilling ambition in their fiery eyes.
Even Baolong's eyes were burning. Even though he made no secret of his contempt for Le Yu, his desire was more sincere.
"There are too many parts of your plan that require luck." He said quietly: "Let's not mention my actions... What if the Skyrim area is peacefully reunified without the exiled warlords? What if the exiles are not strong enough? What if the Skyrim people hate it?
What about you? What if Scarty’s suppression is extremely severe? What if everything turns out to be the worst?”
"That's my fate." Bai Magnolia clasped her fists and said, "Of course, the actual plan will be more detailed, and I will also find my 'partner' early. But as the young master said, there are only three points of the entire plan that we can
If you work hard, the other seven points will be left to fate."
"But I have no choice. Apart from betting on my own life, I have no other chips at all."
Le Yu: "From the very beginning, you were going for Scarty?"
Bai Magnolia nodded: "Yes. Even if the young master doesn't find out, I will confess my thoughts to them. This money is not enough for us to buy status in Xuanzhu County. If we want to get ahead, only Scarty is ours."
Way out.”
Le Yu was silent for a moment and asked: "But if from the beginning, you had not colluded with the fleet to carry out the slave trade, but settled down to be a supervisor in Weiling, then you would be able to live a peaceful life without risking your life."
Bai Magnolia looked at Le Yu blankly, and suddenly smiled: "Sir, you haven't investigated my past, right?"
"I was an orphan before, but I was lucky enough to be adopted by my mother-in-law, and I lived a peaceful life for a few years. There were several other children who were adopted with me, and one of them was Hei Qi, who was a few years older than me."
Everyone looked at the taciturn Heiqi, and then they understood why Heiqi would rather offend Baolong than unconditionally support Bai Magnolia's decision.
"Later, my mother-in-law's son owed gambling debts, the house was taken away, and my mother-in-law was beaten to death. We children were left homeless to find our own way. I was actually okay, because I was pretty good-looking, so I became a concubine in a wealthy family.
I even received a good education.”
"Later, when I got older, the young master who was serving me also married a wife. She didn't like me, so the young master wanted to let me leave freely after many years of friendship. I spent a few years in a daze, and almost contracted the haze addiction. Later, I met Black Flag.
That’s why I took the initiative to work in Weiling.”
"As the young master said, my life is quite peaceful, and my life is good. Black Flag has been much worse than me in recent years." Magnolia shrugged: "It's just this kind of calmness, the calmness of the wind and the sun.
.”
"We grasses fall down when the wind comes, become barren when the fire comes, flood when the rain comes, and are buried when the snow comes. When the weather is good, we can still live peacefully, but when the weather is bad, we will
If we disappear, no one will remember us...because next year new grass will grow vigorously."
"In this world, most people are grass, a few people eat grass, and Mr.... you eat meat."
Le Yu shook his head: "Those who eat meat are also on tenterhooks. You see, the Jing family is now a den of wolves and tigers fighting each other."
Magnolia breathed out softly: "Sir, being a meat-eater has many risks, but it is still much better than being accidentally trampled to death by wild beasts."
"Sir, I just hope that one day I can be like you and live... like a human being."
Immediately, the warehouse fell into silence.
Even the sailor who was shot through the hand did not speak. He stayed aside to bandage his wounds and looked expectantly at Magnolia and Le Yu.
Is this why birds of a feather flock together... Yin Minghong thought to himself.
Under a man like Jing Zhengwei, any of his subordinates are ambitious conspirators. Even Yin Minghong had to admit that although Bai Magnolia's plan was very outrageous, it was indeed possible to succeed, and the benefits
The rewards will also be thousands of times higher.
Jing Zhengwei had no reason to refuse at all. He asked for the money, and he didn't lose his reputation. He even invested in a future warlord of Sjiati - although the chance is slim, once he succeeds, maybe Jing Zhengwei will still be mentioned in the history books.
I can leave a good story about government and business... Ha!
And Bai Magnolia didn't just plead. He encouraged the crew as he spoke, binding everyone to him. What's more, he also deliberately revealed his special relationship with the chief captain Black Flag, which made Jing Zhengwei even more impossible.
Deal with him.
Otherwise, once the fish is dead and the net is broken, Jing Zhengwei will lose the entire fleet, and the loss will be immeasurable. Even if it is a taboo, Jing Zhengwei will definitely choose to cooperate with them, not to mention that Magnolia has given so many steps for Jing Zhengwei to defeat, so that everyone can have face.
, it can be described as a win-win situation.
Yin Minghong thought that Jing Zhengwei would receive a wave of weakening tonight, but he didn't expect that Jing Zhengwei actually strengthened!
Damn it, why are they struggling all day long, while profiteers like Jing Zhengwei are having a smooth sailing?
Is this world really about murder and arson with gold belts and repairing bridges and roads without corpses?
Can slave traders live in glory and wealth and hold high positions?
After an unknown amount of time, they heard Young Master Youyou say:
"Everyone, get up. Since you want to live like a human being, don't kneel down so easily."
The crew members looked happy and stood up quickly. Some even couldn't help but pick up the wine bottle next to them and laugh loudly. The guards also relaxed and were sincerely happy for the young master.
"Thank you, Master!" Bai Magnolia stood up and clasped her fists in thanks, with a black flag, Mr. Wu followed suit, and even Baolong hurriedly showed off a nondescript etiquette.
Le Yu walked up to Bai Yulan, patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly shouted: "Second Master, come here!"
Yin Minghong pointed at himself in surprise and walked over confused.
Does Jing Zhengwei want me to join the fleet?
Or do you want me to go to the Skyline District to recruit troops?
Or should I just go to Scardy and wait for the opportunity to help Bai Magnolia and the others raise the flag for an uprising?
Yin Minghong had thousands of thoughts running through his mind, but his face was expressionless. He walked up to Le Yu and asked, "Master, what are your orders?"
"This is Yin Minghong, the second master of Hongyue. These are Bai Magnolia, Black Flag, Mr. Wu and Baolong." Le Yu introduced him and said to Yin Minghong: "Second master, I have something to ask.
Please."
Yin Minghong showed a serious attitude: "Dare you disobey me."
"Is such that."
Le Yu held Yin Minghong's shoulder with his left hand and pulled out the long knife from Yin Minghong's waist with his right hand.
Zheng——
When the blade of the knife cut across her neck, Magnolia was still immersed in the excitement. Although there were many difficulties in the future, and although the risk of gambling this time was extremely high, he, the chess piece, finally had a chance to become a chess player.
He believes in his own ability. Even if he cannot be immortal, he can at least achieve a spectacular ending!
So no one expected it.
No one could react.
When they came back to their senses, Magnolia's beautiful head had already flown up, with a smile full of expectation on her face.
"Kill these culprits." Le Yu threw the knife back to Yin Minghong, who caught it subconsciously.
The noisy laughter suddenly stopped.
The guards once again raised their guns and aimed them at the crew.
Mi Die and Li Sang quickly came to Le Yu's side.
"Why?" Black Flag caught Bai Magnolia's body, looked straight at Le Yu's back, and in a gloomy voice asked everyone the question they wanted to know most.
Obviously as long as he agreed, Jing Zhengwei would be able to take advantage of everything without taking any risks, and even invest in a bright future for Ali. But killing them would only result in heavy losses.
Jing Zhengwei has no reason to refuse, why is this?
"Why?" Le Yu stopped.
Because Jing Zhengwei’s memory reminds me that Magnolia has a backbone in her brain and must not be left alone, otherwise the backlash will happen sooner or later;
Because Black Flag's prestige is too high, keeping him will only make the fleet alienated and difficult to control;
because……
Because even if you want to live like a human being, you can't treat others as less than human beings.
On the earth of silver and blood, only flowers of evil virtue will grow.
Jing Zhengwei is.
Magnolia too.
So does Feng Zhen.
Just like Feng Zhen of the human trafficking group, Bai Magnolia takes this road. It’s not that they don’t have a choice. In fact, they have choices. Just like Feng Zhen could choose to escape with others, Bai Magnolia can also choose to escape under threat.
Ling Haimao settled down.
But they feel that the world is not kind enough for them to choose a calmer path that does not hurt others.
They have been dealing with this world for many years, and the valuable experience they have gained tells them:
They must hurt others in order for them to survive.
Le Yu is not judging them from above, he is not qualified to do so.
He just wanted to be there for those who were hurt,
Just looking for justice.
Le Yu turned his head, glanced at them, and said casually:
"I, Jing Zhengwei, act with authority, why do I need to explain to others?"
