Chapter 119: Deal

Yu Xiaotian raised his eyebrows and turned his head and asked, "What?" What do you say? ”

"The surname is Zhou, you don't want to get an inch! We've said it, are you going to regret it? Liu Lao Liu's good temper couldn't help it, and he pointed at Zhou Xian and asked.

And the madman Meng next to him jumped up directly and shouted: "Damn, the tiger is not powerful, when we are sick cats?" Helm handle, copy the guys and see how capable they are! ”

Zhou Xian hurriedly waved his hand and said: "All the heroes are angry first, calm their anger!" It's never too late to get angry after listening to the next word! ”

Yu Xiaotian nodded and waved his hand to stop the subordinates who were waiting to be noisy, and asked Meng Maniac to retreat first, Meng Maniac had to close his mouth and stand behind angrily.

Yu Xiaotian frowned and said to Zhou Xian: "Okay, I'll give you another chance to explain, if you are not sincere and want to drag it out, then don't blame Yu for being unkind to you!" ”

Zhou Xian wiped his cold sweat at this time, thanked him again and again, and said: "Yu Da Boss, it's not that we don't agree, after we go back, we have already talked to the other two shipowners, and they have also recognized the price of the negotiation, but we also want to ask Yu Da Da to understand our difficulties!"

Those of us who run on the sea are actually not easy, it costs money to buy a boat, it costs silver to raise a boat, it costs silver to hire a boatman, and when we come out, we have to hire someone to protect the boat, and the cost of a round trip is not small.

But out of the boat, sometimes not necessarily smooth, if you don't get it well, you will lose money, not to hide it, this time we went to Guangdong a trip down, God took care of it, how much also made a little silver, but the income is not very much, after the one hundred and fifty taels of silver to honor you, there is not much left of the income of this trip!

I am afraid that before doing this business, there are also people who have done this business, you should know that it is not easy to do this business, not every owner who runs the sea is a giant, several of our shipowners are actually small business, this ship is also bought with money everywhere, and now I still owe a lot of debt.

In front of the sea and mountains, Yu Da Boss also knows that there are a lot of people in this area of the sea and mountains who do your business, and it is just that you meet you, so you can live after you go back, but if you run into it again, even if our boats are not dead, we will have to shed their skin after going back, if we don't pay off some debts a year ago, I'm afraid that even the boat will have to buy to pay off the debt, and we will really hang the whole family!

So after we discussed, there will be such a reluctant request, and we hope that the big boss will pity us, and we will give you the silver, but I also hope that the big boss can escort us for a ride! ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Xian's eyes were also red, his eyes were moist, and he slowly knelt in front of Yu Xiaotian, and kowtowed a few times to Xiaotian and the people behind him.

Yu Xiaotian silently looked at this Zhou Xian, and the elderly man who followed him, both of them knelt down and kowtowed vigorously.

The sea wolves who were still angry just now couldn't help but feel compassion at this moment, most of them are actually not ruthless people in nature, and they all have their own unspeakable hardships when they take this road, and now seeing Zhou Xian and them pleading so much, there are really not many people who are not soft-hearted.

Especially Liu Laoliu, a person who had been running at sea for a long time in his early years, was even more angry when he saw this, and the expression on his face softened, and he looked at Zhou Xian silently.

Even Madman Meng couldn't help but turn around at this moment, no longer babbling.

Yu Xiaotian's mind kept turning, today he encountered a new problem, after negotiating the conditions, Zhou Xianhe brought over the shipowner once again put forward a new request, that is, they could give him one hundred and fifty taels of silver for each boat, but a new condition was added, that is, Yu Xiaotian was required to escort their three boats across the sea around Haishan, so as not to let them be attacked by other pirates in the waters of Haishan Island, that is, Haitan Island.

Originally, Yu Xiaotian could have flatly refused, and used this opportunity to control Zhou Xian and the other shipowners, force them to hand over their goods, and then leave here.

But Yu Xiaotian has his own moral code, in his opinion, even if he is a pirate now, he must keep the minimum moral bottom line, and now the two sides are still negotiating, and the two countries are still at war, and it is really a bit unreasonable to take advantage of this opportunity to take down these two negotiators.

In addition, during this time, he also learned that in fact, the people who run ships at sea are not necessarily giants and bullies, and there are many maritime merchants who do not have strong financial resources, and only take risks to do this business in order to make a fortune, and their ability to bear it is not very high, and sometimes they may be robbed once, which leads to their bankruptcy.

Now it seems that Zhou Xian and the owners of the other two ships generally belong to this kind of maritime merchants who are not very strong, otherwise they would not have begged so hard and repeatedly came to negotiate conditions.

But the condition they put forward today made Yu Xiaotian a little embarrassed, because they were thieves, pirates who specialized in robbing at sea, not a dart game, and it was their duty to rob ships, but now they asked themselves to escort the ship for them and give them a ride, which was a bit against their duty in this business.

So Yu Xiaotian was a little embarrassed by this, and after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly made up his mind and nodded: "Okay!" Shopkeeper Zhou! Today, Yu Mou will promise you this condition, don't look at what our sea wolves do, but we are not born bad, business is business, and morality is morality!

This time, Yu Mou saw that it was not easy for you, so he agreed to your conditions, and the right was to help you with this, but Yu Mou wanted to make it clear that it was okay to escort you across the sea and mountains, but we could only send you to the north of Dalian Island, and further north it would depend on your own luck! ”

After Zhou Xian and the older man who came with him heard Yu Xiaotian's words, they were overjoyed, and nodded their heads again and again, saying that it was completely okay.

So after a while, the owners of the three boats sent someone to send their respective silver, a total of four hundred and fifty taels of white flowers, in front of Yu Xiaotian.

After Meng Madman waved his hand away from the others, he muttered to Xiaotian in a low voice: "Helmsman, this deal is not cost-effective!" If you escort them to the north of Dalian Island, this trip back and forth will take at least four days, didn't you also promise that Wang Hong before the festival to go to Nanri Island? In this way, I'm afraid it will be delayed! ”

Yu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Uncle Meng, don't worry, I actually didn't expect them to put forward such a condition, but we pay attention to thieves and have a way, and we can't just look at money in everything, this time we forcibly demanded one hundred and fifty taels of silver from each of their families, which is not a small amount for shipowners like them."

What they said is true, if they meet us this time, they will be enough, if they meet again, even if they save their lives and go back to the boat, they will almost go bankrupt, and the whole family will not hang themselves, but they will definitely not be able to do this!

We can't do this business, we can't do all the water and fish, which is also the reason why under normal circumstances, our line of work is not easy to rob the boat, so in this case, we have the right to buy one get one free, and give them a ride.

I've counted the time, this trip, although I don't earn much, but it's enough for us to celebrate the festival, and on the way back, you can also go to Dalian Island by the way, and take it with us to buy something for the festival on the island, if you hurry up, go to Nanri Island before the year, and worship Zhang Hu's wharf, the time is enough, you don't have to worry! ”

Liu Lao Liu agreed with Xiaotian's statement that thieves also have a way and do their best to fish, and nodded again and again: "Although we don't do this very well, but it's not without precedent, there are actually peers in Guangdong who also do it, after hijacking the ship, they take the goods, if the people on the hijacked ship are obedient, they will sometimes follow the escort for a while, let's not do this is a bad rule!" ”

Yu Xiaotian glanced at the bay, waved his hand and said, "Since I have already agreed, then let's do it this way!" They've lifted anchor and hoisted their sails, so let's move too! The rain has stopped, and the wind has lightened, so I ordered Xianbin to take the boat back first! Their ship is slow, and they delay it even more! ”

(Today, I would like to thank my old friend for the reward I received from an intoxicating person, I haven't seen you for a long time!) Hehe! )
