Chapter 563 Investigation of the Survival of the Pirate Profession

This does make a lot of sense, at least for the pirates.

When some people think of pirates, their first impression is that they are strong on the sea, galloping the sea, plundering wealthy merchants, happy revenge, drinking wine and eating meat.

But that's just the strong in the pirates, and even the strong in these pirates, they themselves are in danger and may be killed at any time, let alone the weak ones in the pirates?

In fact, the weak and low-level pirates are actually not much different from the ordinary low-level people, this is the class contradiction, not the occupational contradiction, these pirates were originally born poor, except for going to the sea to try their luck, it is basically impossible to turn over, unless they really eat a devil fruit, or are forced to join a large pirate group, otherwise the probability of them wanting to turn over is the same as the probability that they want to cross their own class, almost none.

And no matter what world it is, the survival concerns of the people at the bottom are very little, or even uncared about.

At Citigroup, this kind of person is the elephant in the room, the homeless people who fill the inner circle of the whole city exist there, live there, and force the white-collar workers to live outside the suburbs of the city, but no one cares about them, even if they say a word to them, they even think that the reason why these homeless people exist is completely because they are not enterprising, drunk and addicted, and are willing to degenerate.

They don't even think about the fact that under Citi's credit system, once the credit goes bankrupt, no matter how hard they struggle, it is impossible to turn over.

Although New Oriental is much better than Citigroup, it is not perfect, because of the problem of population and economic size, although the distributor can help most domestic enterprises to redistribute income "decently", but it has to be mentioned that the courier brother, takeaway brother, migrant worker who is engaged in a large number of basic industries in the city, and even the farmers in the countryside and towns who have directly become invisible and appear outside the public opinion media and the public eye.

Although you can see them in all kinds of social media and news, one thing that must be recognized is that in the distribution of benefits, they are the small head, or even only with the benefit of plugging the gap between the teeth to earn the most marginal benefits.

The problem is not only with Internet companies, but also with redistribution.

They are the elephants in the room of New Oriental.

And these pirates at the bottom are also elephants in the room in the pirate world, everyone usually doesn't talk about him, doesn't touch him, and even ignores him, but when Leo said it, everyone found out and wait, has this guy been here all along? This guy is so big!

The huge group of low-level pirates not only moved to tears, but also trembled, and under the strong light of the spotlight, they stood in front of everyone as if they were people without clothes, and were watched by everyone's inhumane onlookers.

Anyone who has ever had this experience should know what a terrible experience and feeling it can be.

Fortunately, the revolutionary army only mentioned this matter, and they did not name the specific person, so that those ordinary pirates still had a little comfort.

But even so, they still had to pay more attention to the follow-up reports of the revolutionary army than ordinary people, merchants, and even sea pirates.

For these people, this is just an after-dinner pastime, a conversation when chatting with others, but for ordinary pirates, this is their future, their future is gone, where can they happily eat and drink and plunder.

What are they looting for, isn't it just for a better material life, and even to get rid of the local tyrants and bullies who stand on their heads and oppress them after they go back, and then become new local tyrants and bullies, bullying men and women in the local area?

Now it seems that they can't even live a good life after they go back, so what's the point of them messing around on the sea?

As the two reports continued to ferment, a melancholy mood was enveloped in the whole sea, and the pirates were unable to lift their energy, and it was naturally difficult for people who were engaged in the pirate business to exert their strength, whether it was prostitutes or merchants, and the business began to shrink for a while.

A month later, the third axe of the revolutionary army finally fell quietly, this is an interview, an interview with the "nobody" in English, which can be called both nobodies and nobodies, and further understood that they are everywhere, they are [passers-by A, B, C, D], and in the most authentic Chinese context, that is, "people".

People don't actually represent the people, they represent citizens, citizens with the right to vote, and since Roman times it has been a kind of calculation standard unique to the West, which of course does not include the low-level people who do not know how to read and write.

This interview with [Nobody] is very professionally written, and when I came up, I saw that the reporter of the World Economic News began to ask about the birth, age, and origin of this pirate as if chatting, and now he is in a certain pirate group, of course, this pirate group has been exterminated by the revolutionary army, and he is just a remnant of the defeated army that has been fished up.

The reporter seems to be a woman, and her writing technique is very delicate and real, for example: the other party's age looks very young, only some stubble is on the lips, and the thick lips are bitten by the upper teeth, showing a little uneasiness and anxiety.

This delicate writing technique easily brings people in, making the image of a young shy, scared and anxious pirate leap onto the page, and as she continues to ask questions, the young man opposite the image of a young man who feels that there is adventure and gold on the sea just by his blood, and then goes out to sea to become a pirate.

Of course he is true, and of course this interview is also true, and it is precisely because of the truth that it touches people's hearts.

As the story progresses, everyone begins to understand what life at sea is really like.

Life at sea is not as full of adventure and fun as everyone imagined, full of passion and hormones, in fact, most of the time on the sea is a boring life, boring life covers most of their time, in a month on the sea, a small pirate group like him can meet ten ships is already good, it is good to have five merchant ships in these ten ships, the remaining five are either revolutionary army or navy warships, or other pirate ships.

And among the remaining five merchant ships, two of them have been beaten, and it is already thankful.

That's right, even if it's an ordinary merchant ship, they can't beat any of them.

That's where the little pirates come in.

With the reporter's questioning, he slowly told about his life on the sea.

Only then did everyone know that life on the sea was so boring and boring.

They even had some young, fair-haired lads who had not been on the shore for too long, and were held down by the tall and shabby-haired veteran pirates......

Of course, that's why Leo would rather die than join the pirates.

His words made the young people here chrysanthemum tighten, and the whole person felt a chill in their backs.

The sea they yearn for is not a broken arm.

This young guy happened to be in a not very good-looking and not very white and tender appearance, so he escaped.

In this way, in the midst of panic, he slowly began to accept that he was accustomed to life on the sea, and began to prepare to reach the peak of life.

It's just that he soon found out that he seemed to have joined the wrong pirate group, his head was an unknown little pirate, and the bounty on the navy side was only more than two million, in the West Sea, it can indeed be regarded as a small person, forty or fifty people, ten guns and eight cannons, can handle most of the ordinary people and merchant ships.

Of course, like the revolutionary army and navy, they can't beat it.

As for the more powerful pirates, they can see clearly by looking at the flags and sailboats, and avoid them from a distance.

This is also a means to save one's time and effectively avoid internal friction among pirates.

They just dangled on the sea for two years until they met the revolutionary army.

The biggest difference between the revolutionary army and the navy is that their warships are fast, especially fast.

In the past, they had heard that the ships of the revolutionary army were fast in the black market of pirates, but when they really faced the revolutionary army, they realized how fast the ships of the revolutionary army were, and even if they tried their best, they could not get rid of the revolutionary army.

And with the mistakes of the first few shots, the subsequent shots are incomprehensible in accuracy.

Then, he went unconscious, and when he woke up, he was already in the prison of the revolutionary army.

Immediately afterwards, the reporter sent out a soul question: So for you, has your dream of going to sea come true?

With a bitter look on his young face, he was silent for a long time, and did not answer the question.

The bitterness and embarrassment in his heart was visible to the naked eye.

Finally, the reporter asked him: If you were given another chance, would you still go to sea?

After the other party finally came out of the emotions just now, he fell into contemplation again.

Eventually, he shook his head, "If I had known what was waiting for my pirate life, I would rather be a local farmer." ”

His answer seemed to be the voice of thousands of pirates, and they fell into a long silence.

That's right, if they knew that life awaited them on the sea was like this, then how could they not have become pirates.

Unlike the pirates who are related to the same disease, the ordinary residents have no idea what the deep meaning is contained in this, they only know that after reading this article, they are really not satisfied with the life of pirates on the sea.

But this is different from the heroic and crazy treasure hunt adventure that stimulated everyone's adrenaline secretion back then, this special interview brings warmth and close to life, simply put, you can go to eat a big meal from time to time to enrich your life and tongue, but what really feeds your stomach every day is the takeaway with MSG near the company.

One is plain, the other is passionate, but for the latter, it is destined to be something that only a few people and a few hours can enjoy.

The former is the real life of most people.

After this article came out, it not only let the masses of people into the daily life of the pirates, but also made them understand that in fact, ordinary little pirates are just a group of people who are desperately running for life, and poked into the hearts of the pirates, making them more and more depressed. They're stuck in the present, and they're so depressed.

There's not even much energy left to rob.

Blackjack Lewansky is such a pirate, he is in the East China Sea, after Luffy cleaned up a lot of pirates in the East China Sea, he took advantage of the vacuum of the power of the revolutionary army and the navy to fight, he is a Devil Fruit Barrel Fruit ability, can store all kinds of fine wine in his body, almost unlimited, relying on this ability, he specializes in robbing wineries, light sailing ships, plus more than a dozen elite masters, he almost quickly became famous in the East China Sea.

It's just that the revolutionary army hasn't offered him a bounty yet, as if he has completely forgotten his name.

This makes him live a very nourishing life.

But even he can read the newspaper, he needs to communicate with others, and he has to vent his desires.

But lately, he has always been unable to lift his spirits, and the glass of wine seems to have been swallowed into his body with his ability, so that he can't get drunk no matter what.

Why is he upset, in fact, the pirates in this town know it in their hearts.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, and who will pretend to talk about fasting, in fact, everyone's mood is the same, after that report came out, they almost immediately realized that this report was true.

It was precisely because it was true that it made them even more stunned, and they immediately thought of themselves after reading it, the whole black market town had never been so quiet and peaceful, even those drunk drunkards were just crying, and they didn't even bother to fight with each other anymore.

For a moment, they seemed to completely ignore the classification of their pirate group, and they completely became a unified name: ordinary pirates.

The same is certainly true of Lewansky.

Just as he didn't know how to vent his frustration, pouring glass after glass of wine, his right-hand man, Da Makov, had already stumbled in from outside the tavern.

"Boss, look at this!" He waved the newspaper in his hand, drawing the attention of the entire tavern.
