Chapter 196: I don't know if I'm alive or dead
Chapter 196 I don't know whether I am alive or dead
While the villagers of Cocoa West Village were still shocked by the troubadours who fell from the sky, the Dragon Pirates who were resting in a natural harbor on the same island also welcomed a special group of guests.
"You say let's throw the money at a human-guarded bank?"
The leader of the Dragon Pirates, Aaron, is a serrated shark with blue-gray skin, a long, pointed, jagged nose, and the iconic fins of the fish-man race on his back, just like other fishmen.
At this time, he was laughing and looking at the human in front of him, as if the proposal he had just made seemed very funny to him.
In the captain's room of the Dragon Pirates warship, a group of fishmen gathered around Ah Long sitting on a large wooden chair, and across from them, stood a middle-aged man.
The only human male in the room, dressed in an ironed plaid suit without a trace of wrinkles, and a round-brimmed hat was grasped in his hand and pressed to his chest, revealing his neatly groomed short hair on top of his head.
This human man named Antonio did not show a trace of anger at Aaron's ridicule, and maintained a proper smile from beginning to end, it is said that fish-people are naturally stronger than humans, this statement Antonio does not know whether it is true or false, but at this time, the fish-man Aaron in front of him is indeed stronger and taller than ordinary people.
Antonio is not short, but he still needs to look up to meet Aaron: "Sir, our bank is just taking care of your property and providing corresponding financial services. ”
"Your money is left in the cellar and can only be moldy, but leave it to us, and we will not only convert this unsolicited property into your legitimate income, but also serve you when you need it, and help you spend your money," said Antonio, "I heard that you are going to settle here, and although this natural harbor is good, are you going to eat and sleep here with your men?" As long as you become a customer of our bank, we will provide you with building materials and a professional engineering team to build the building you want, saving you and your warriors from worrying about such work. ”
Ah Long said disapprerovingly: "Your proposal is good, but it's a pity that you humans are too weak, and I don't feel at ease if I put the money with you." ”
"Since the opening of the bank, it has always had a good reputation in the East China Sea, and there have been no problems so far, so why should you be worried?" said Antonio.
"That's only because the East China Sea is the weakest sea...... Ah Long said this, suddenly stopped, and then changed the conversation, and asked curiously, "Your bank has a good reputation in the East China Sea?
"Of course, there are many big customers in Tokai who are worried about the source of their assets like you, and they all choose to store their assets in our bank after the inspection. Antonio said.
Aaron's eyes rolled: "I do want to build a base here, if what you say is true, then I can call the shots and put some of the property in your bank." ”
"That's great," Antonio said excitedly, "I don't know how much Bailey you want to deposit......? ”
Aaron interrupted the gushing Antonio, stretched out a finger and said, "I'm going to keep 100 million Baileys with you, but I have the conditions." ”
"What conditions?" asked Antonio.
"I'm still not very worried about the security of your human bank, so I'll have my subordinates join you to personally escort this money to your bank, and check whether you have the ability to protect my property, and if you are satisfied, I will deposit more money with you." Aaron rubbed the armrest of the seat and said slowly.
Antonio looked at Aaron's face and didn't answer for a moment.
Seeing this, Aaron asked, "What, you don't agree?"
Antonio quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile that did not change: "This is a quite reasonable request, how can you not agree to it? ”
"Then you get off the boat first," Aaron waved at Antonio like a commanding man, "I'm going to arrange for my subordinates to see who will go with you, and I'll leave with you in your boat in a moment." ”
When Antonio left and stood beside Aaron, a strong fishman with bulging muscles and a body as strong as an inverted triangle, but with a pair of sky-beating hairstyles on the top of his head, asked, "Boss Aaron, don't worry about handing over the money to humans?"
There were also fishmen next to him who echoed: "Human beings are so weak, if they can protect their property, they will not be easily enslaved by us, how can they protect our property?"
"Fellow citizens, you're so right," Aaron seemed to appreciate his companion's remarks and attitude toward humanity, and patted the armrest of his chair with a laugh, "Of course I don't believe they can protect their property, so that's why I'm sending you there." ”
"The fool man said before that they have a lot of customers in their bank, and they must have saved a lot of money, and we need to rob villages and towns, and we need to collect money one by one, how can it be convenient to rob a bank directly?" Aaron looked left and right triumphantly, and when he saw his companion showing a sudden realization, he shouted, "Croopie!"
The strong man who asked the question before, and the strong man with a comb to the sky answered.
"Hachi!"
A dumbfounded, octopus-like fish-man with suckers on his body and six arms subconsciously responded.
"Chirp!"
Ah Long finally ordered a fishman with a long face, and instructed the three of them: "To deal with this group of inferior races in the East China Sea, it is enough for the three of you to lead the team, in addition to the three of you, I will send thirty of your compatriots to follow their ships in the sea, and when you reach the destination where the bank is, you will rob all the money in their bank!"
Aaron couldn't help but laugh at Antonio's stupidity: "These humans really don't know whether they are alive or dead, and they actually came to us to do business?"
"Huh?" The octopus fish man named Hachi, who was named by Aaron before, with six arms, seemed to react: "Are we going to rob them? Aren't we going to do business with them? Spend money to let them help us build a house?"
"Spend money?" Ah Long sneered, "In this era, as long as you are stronger than others, you can dominate others at will, as a higher race, why should we spend money to hire humans who can be easily enslaved? Doing business, it is indeed doing business, this time it is equivalent to them spending money, let us teach them a truth, in this world, weakness is the original sin!"
……
On the other side, Antonio, who was the account manager of the Flash Gold Bank, also returned to his ship, and several bank staff on the ship hurriedly greeted him, and they were full of admiration for Antonio who dared to board the ship of the Dragon Pirates alone and negotiate business surrounded by a bunch of alien criminals.
"How's it going, manager?" asked one of them.
"These fish-men are dumber than I expected," Antonio shook his head, then asked rhetorically, "If I'm not mistaken, Lord William has been patrolling White Pine recently, right?"
Seeing that the others nodded yes, Antonio let out an "oh" and said, "Then it seems that we are going to pick up 100 million Baileys for nothing." ”
A very responsive staff member asked, "What? Another fool wants to rob a bank? This is the first time this year?"
In the East China Sea, Ah Long is not the first pirate to realize that there will be a lot of cash and treasure in the bank, let alone the first pirate to try to rob the bank, one of the purposes of William's opening of the Flash Gold Bank and the White Pine Town Free Trade Zone is to absorb the pirates' funds, and they need to take the initiative to recruit pirates, but with the habits of pirates, how many of them are willing to do business in peace?
