Chapter 96: The Blood Pact (3)
Looking at the eager eyes of these thorns, Lin Feng first told the six navigation agreements one by one, and the scene suddenly whistled and exclaimed.
These people are only representatives of reckless impulsiveness, but they are by no means representatives of stupidity, on the contrary, they are far more cunning than ordinary people. In their eyes, these preferential conditions were directly converted into glittering official hats and money, making their eyes shine incomparably, and they rushed towards Lin Feng unfreely.
Lin Feng's spirit was bright, and he continued to tempt in a devilish tone: "Anyone who has been out of the South China Sea knows that in the vast and soft sea, there are many rich continents and islands, the climate is suitable, there are three crops a year, there are fruits that can be picked at hand, and minerals that can be found everywhere, these are all great resources that can be exchanged for money!"
In Goguryeo in the north, Japan in the east, Zhou in the north, and the steppes further north, there are mountains of wealth everywhere, and the only people who guard the wealth are some natives with inferior swords and guns!
If you ride on the world's greatest warship, with the sharpest weapons in the world, and the most valiant companions, where will you go? Where in the world can't you break in? Wander around, the world is yours, overseas is yours, wealth is yours, and beauties are yours! I, the Special Soldiers, the Datang Academy of Sciences, Shouzhou, and Datang will always be your backstage! ”
These words immediately aroused the madness of the gang, and one by one, the crowd became excited.
"Since ancient times, wealth has been sought in danger! No matter how rich this thing is, how much risk it is! Since everyone didn't leave just now, now we are all brothers in the same boat, the boat is full and everyone is good, and everyone is done playing when the boat sinks! Therefore, from the beginning, we have to carefully consider and prevent various risks. Lin Feng waited for the noise on the scene to subside slightly, and said loudly again, "The first one is that we both have the risk of not abiding by the contract!" ”
The scene quickly fell silent. Partnering to rob this kind of thing is to beat the wolf with a hemp stick, and the two ends are afraid! To be honest, of course, there were many people at the scene who were worried that Lin Feng would cross the river and tear down the bridge. If Lin Feng let his special soldiers take the Heaven-Shaking Thunder to do it, even the immortals wouldn't be able to stop it! Therefore, some people have the idea of "if it doesn't work, I'll grab a fortune and hide and be chic myself" from the beginning.
Lin Feng took out a piece of paper from his arms, waved it and said, "All the things I promised are written on it, and I can stamp a big seal and press a handprint, one for each person, to ensure that I will not break the contract." I can also swear on the spot, if I break the contract first, you can also not keep the agreement! But what about you, how do you reassure me? How can I make me believe that after you go to sea, you will never kill innocents indiscriminately, never bully the poor and the young, and never abscond with money? ”
There was a cold silence in the audience. When the time comes, the emperor is far away, and no one can guarantee that these things will not happen!
Jia Yuhang tore off the placket button on his chest, revealing the bulging muscles, pulled out the steel knife and brushed it twice, and drew a deep "×" number at the position of the heart, and let the two lines of blood flow down slowly, before he said loudly:
"Lord Lin, you have never looked down on me, treat me like a brother, if Jia breaks the agreement, it is better to be a pig and a dog! I hereby solemnly swear that if I disobey and fail you, I will plunge the knife into my heart from here without your hands! Within 20 days, I will take my family and all my property to Shouzhou, and if Jia has any breach of contract, you will cut them with a knife! ”
Seeing Jia Yuhang's actions, Cao Shang was not far behind, and then made a sword oath, and all the other pirates did it, leaving more than sixty Shouzhou soldiers standing there, a little hesitant.
Yi Wuxian took two steps forward and finished as usual, turned around and shouted with a blood-dripping knife: "There is a thief's heart but no thief's guts, can you do a ball thing?!" I want to take advantage of any cheapness, and I refuse to give up any blood, who dares to believe you?! I'm here with my words, whoever doesn't swear today, who doesn't send his family, don't want to leave here alive! ”
Zhang Fangya gritted, and was the first to stand up and swear. The other soldiers naturally knew that there was no turning back, and they drew their swords one after another to do so.
Lin Feng kept smiling and looked at all this calmly. None of these people are good at stubble, and it's always good to have some handles in their hands.
Soon, all of them had blood on their knives. Lin Feng also took out a bowl of water, bit his fingers, squeezed three drops of blood into the bowl, and then drank it all, indicating that he had officially established a blood alliance.
After Lin Feng smashed the bowl on the ground, he roared loudly: "The second risk is the risk of how you get along in the future, how you divide your wealth, and how you govern yourself!" You can't always use your fists and steel knives to win or lose, divide the money and goods, and fight back and forth every day, right? Now, please discuss and deliberate on your own, and tell me the rules that you have set in the end! ”
The group of people couldn't help but be stunned, and only after Lin Feng's reminder did they come to their senses and argue in a big circle.
Lin Feng hummed a little song and walked to the side, waiting for their results.
Six hundred and seventy years later, on November 11, 1620, after 66 days at sea, a galleon named Mayflower anchored in the harbor of Prowingston in the Americas. Before the 102 passengers left the ship, they signed a convention, which became the Mayflower Convention, which would later affect the entire world.
The main body of the covenant reads: "To make a solemn joint oath before God to form a voluntary association of citizens." We all undertake to observe and obey all laws, regulations, ordinances, charters, and public offices which may be made and applied at any time in the future for the benefit of the general interests of the colony, for the smooth conduct, maintenance, and development of the aforesaid purposes. "These people, in order to establish a rule under which all people can be bound and protected, solemnly swear to create a self-governing body, which must be established with the consent of the governed and which will be governed by law. The principles of equality, justice, and self-esteem embodied in the Convention have directly laid the foundation for the founding of the United States.
Think about who were the 102 passengers on the Mayflower at that time? The main body is the Puritans who are religiously persecuted, the bankrupts, the exiles! They are all people who have failed in the rules of the game in the old world of Britain, and they are all people who must leave the British Isles immediately!
Compared to those people, the group of pirates and soldiers in front of him are in a much better situation, and they will naturally work harder to fight for their own rights! It was with this in mind that Lin Feng was very confident that these people would eventually be able to reach an agreement.
Live quarrel that called a fierce! Zhang Fang took the lead, leading a large group of people who were no longer afraid of Yi Wujian, Jia Yuhang, and Cao Shang, and formed a gang to argue with the three leaders for a while, and with the pirates for a while.
Half an hour passed, and there was no result.
An hour passed, and the argument continued.
Lin Feng walked over, shouted a few times, stopped the noisy people, and raised his voice and said, "Brothers, can you take a break, is it fair to listen to someone Lin's advice?" ”
Jia Yuhang immediately led people to make a noise, and asked Lin Feng to make up their minds for everyone.
Lin Feng waved his hand to refuse, took out a piece of paper, and read his suggestion out loud:
"Everyone in the team is always equal, and those who bully others with rank and force will be attacked by everyone.
The wealth of everyone in the team is magical and inviolable, and no one can be unreasonably deprived of it;
In the event of a conflict between the team and the individual, or between the individual, the team shall be submitted to the team for a fair judgment recognized by both parties;
……
The rules of the Dominion must be agreed upon by all members and must be beneficial to the overall interests of the Territory;
All administrative and economic matters of the Dominion should be approved by at least a majority of the team members. ”
"Okay, I agree with them all!" Yi Wuxian took the lead in expressing his position, and Jia Yuhang and Cao Shang also nodded after him. When the remaining soldiers saw that the three giants agreed, they naturally had no opinion, and all of them agreed.
At three o'clock in the afternoon of 15 July, a maritime operation that would affect the pattern of the future world was officially formed, and a class that relied on force to plunder the world began to set foot on the stage of history. And this Shouzhou Township Soldier Training Camp, which was extremely simple at that time, became the origin of the holy place of every Tang colonist's annual remote sacrifice.
