A large group of naked men of all colors were imprisoned in a camp on Nanri Island, including Spaniards and others, and even some Indians and Southeast Asians, and they had several identities, one was that they were all Spanish sailors and foot soldiers, and they had all served the Spaniards, and the other was that they were all captives of the sea wolves.

These people were all Spanish soldiers and sailors captured by the sea wolves in the Battle of Chicken Coop Bay, as for the more than 200 slaves and craftsmen, those black-skinned monkeys had been thrown into the hard labor camp by Yu Xiaotian, and the builders and ship-repairing carpenters were sent to their places to serve him Yu Xiaotian.

However, only a few dozen of these sailors and infantry have expressed their willingness to serve Yu Xiaotian for a period of time in the future, but there are still hundreds of them who are still prisoners for the time being, and can only be used as coolies.

These fellows were left in the quarry by the black head and Sun Baoqiang at the behest of Yu Xiaotian at the Keelung Fort, and worked hard for two months of hard labor, and every day they could only work bare, with the encouragement of leather whips and rattan sticks, and the threat of bayonets, to dig stone for the sea wolves.

And they can only eat some of the simplest food every day, just enough for them to sustain their lives, and at the end of the day, their hungry eyes are green.

But fortunately, the sea wolves did not want to starve them to death, or watch them die of illness and be consumed in vain, ensuring their minimum living conditions, and providing them with some basic medical protection when someone is sick.

But even so, in the past two months, they still have more than thirty deaths, and death threatens these guys at any time, making them worry about their fate tomorrow every day.

When the first time the sea wolves recruited men among them and helped the sea wolves sail the two captured large plywood boats to Nanri Island, some of them were recruited and left them, but some of them were a little late, but they did not catch up with this good thing, so they could only continue to work in the quarry to collect stones for the sea wolves under the sun and wind and rain.

During this time, all their pride and arrogance were consumed in the quarries, by leather whips, rattan sticks, and bayonets, and as captives there were no human rights, and they now realized their value, that any glory was fake, and that the most important thing was to have a full stomach.

One day, after they had been tortured for two months, all of a sudden, these Chinese pirates loaded them into several boats, pulled them all to the island, and locked them up in this camp.

At first, the captives were all frightened to death, thinking that they were worthless, and that the Chinese pirates were going to put them to death, and for two months, it was not known who the Dao was, and it was rumored among them that the Chinese pirates liked to eat the human flesh of the Taixi, and thought that eating their flesh would be an aphrodisiac.

So these guys were even more frightened by this, and after being sent to this island, they were enclosed in a camp, and many Chinese poured out of the group, pointing at them, as if picking fat and thin, which scared these guys even more, thinking that this was to sell them and provide them with food.

But fortunately, after two or three days passed, they did not find that any of them were pulled out of the bowl to eat, and it seems that the food here has also improved a little, at least in the soup, they saw a little bit of oil flowers, and also ate some shrimp skin, such food, if it was placed before they were captured before, then they would have slapped the table and scolded or rioted, but now, when they see such a soup with some oil flowers, they all have a feeling of wanting to cry.

Hearing that a large group of Tessie bare-skinned monkeys were transported to the island, many people on Nanri Island came to see the freshness, and even some thick-skinned old ladies also came to see it with thick skin, and saw a group of sleek Western-skinned monkeys, who were enclosed in the camp and sat there one by one to dry their crotch.

Jilong Bay is very damp, plus there are no clothes to wear, and I have to work hard in the sun every day, and some of the things under the crotch of this pants are rotten, so now it is more comfortable to take advantage of the good weather to hurry up and sunburn, as for the face, these guys have long been gone.

Without clothes to wear, there is naturally no dignity at all, and what they are most eager for now is not only to be able to eat and eat, but also to hope to wear clothes back to the most.

The captives didn't know what these Chinese pirates had suddenly sent them here, but for the time being, it seemed that the pirates didn't want to kill them, so after two days, they gradually felt a little more at ease.

On this day, a group of people came to their camp, surrounded by an extremely tall man, this man is definitely a person with a high altitude even on their European side, and even more so on the Asian side.

And they also saw that some of the people who had come were Chinese interpreters they had brought from Manila, but now they had all gone to work for the sea wolves, and the clever captives immediately realized that today would be the moment to decide their fate, because these pirates had come with interpreters, and they must have communicated something with them, and if they could not seize the opportunity today, then they would probably have to go to these pirates forever to collect stones.

They couldn't look back on the days of stone mining, and if they were given a chance now, they would do anything for these pirates, as long as they didn't keep going to the quarries.

Sure enough, the tall pirate leader, after entering their camp, did not ramble with them, and immediately asked an interpreter to come out with a tin roll of trumpet, and began to speak loudly to them in Spanish.

"You people have heard me clearly, and the master here has asked me to tell you that now I can give you a way out, and let you choose for yourselves.

Now that the master here is willing to recruit you as his subordinates, His Excellency is willing to sign an agreement with you, that you will serve him here for five years, and then you will be free, and you can choose to leave here on your own, or continue to serve your Excellency the Great Chief.

After you sign the agreement, you will no longer have to work in the quarry, but will be able to work in the place he chooses for you, and enjoy the same treatment as his soldiers.

In addition, he can also give you a certain amount of silver coins every month, depending on the work you can do, ranging from a minimum of three silver coins to a maximum of twenty silver coins.

You can choose to sign a contract, or you can choose to refuse to sign a contract, and those who choose to sign will immediately get new clothes, better accommodation, and better food, but if you refuse to sign a contract, you can choose to continue to work in the quarry until you die!

All right! That's all I have to tell you, Your Excellency, and you can choose for yourself!

But remember that as soon as you have signed the contract, you must be loyal to Your Excellency the Chief for five years, and if you make a mistake or try to flee or start a rebellion, then you can be hanged or beheaded at any time, and you may be subject to other punishments, but you must not be willing to try those punishments, for it will be ten thousand times worse than being hanged or beheaded!

Your Excellency may assure you that if you have served under him conscientiously for five years, you will be given back your freedom, and that you will be rewarded with a great sum of money according to your service, in any case much more generous than you would have been paid for your work for the king or some merchants! ”

As soon as the interpreter finished speaking, there was a buzz among the naked Spanish captives, and some of them could not hear it very clearly or very clearly, so they hurried to ask the people around them what the interpreter meant just now.

When everyone understood what the interpreter had said, the Spanish captives immediately became excited, five years was not too long for them, because now they were captives, and these pirates could execute them at any time, and even enslave them for the rest of their lives, which was not too long compared to the time of life or life.

Moreover, this interpreter made it clear that as long as they signed a contract, they could improve their lives, put on clothes, regain their dignity (of course, the minimum dignity of being a human being), and what made them even happier was that they might also be paid, instead of working for five years for this Chinese pirate.

Although three silver coins is not too much, but it is not too little, in the past, whether they were sailors or infantrymen, they could not necessarily get how many silver coins every month, but now if they sign a contract, not only their lives are guaranteed, but they also get a minimum of dignity, they can eat their stomachs, and even get paid, which is already unimaginable preferential treatment.

If they don't seize this opportunity at this time, then according to the interpreter, go to the quarry and work until death!

Now no one wants to go to the quarry any longer, where in their opinion, it is worse than hell, and now even if they don't pay them, as long as they give them food and clothes, they are willing to do anything for this pirate leader, even if it is to sell their butts to these pirates, it is estimated that someone is willing to do it.

So the Hula gang hurriedly answered, and asked for an immediate contract, and they were willing to serve His Excellency this great leader for five years from now on.

(Today, I would like to thank the boring o cheap god and the two brothers of the wandering Jiangnan for their generous rewards!) Let's make the tipping more violent! Ha Lu Ha! ）
