CH.103 Appeal
Tang Ke was slightly surprised, entered the system to check, and found that his bounty had skyrocketed to 10,000 gold coins!
"How did my head become so valuable?"
Tonk almost jumped out of place, and the bounty was at such a point that it would attract all sorts of navies and bounty hunters, which was a bit of a bad thing. He speculated for a while, it should be because after he got involved with the Golden Beard, his value rose sharply, plus he owned the Sky, which was also an important factor.
The reward is based on the value of the prisoner, and the proportion is generally between one-third and one-tenth.
Donk's bounty reached 10,000 gold coins, proving that the empire considered him worth more than 30,000 gold coins!
He exited the system, his face solemn, and he acted more carefully in the future. He now felt that prestige was a terrible thing, and that his name would be recorded in the files of high-ranking officials in the major empires, and perhaps labeled "must be eradicated".
At this point, he can only take one step at a time, there are so many pirates in the world, and the empire may not just stare at him.
Tang Ke spent a few more days drunk and dreaming of death, fighting with the three sisters every day, enjoying rare pleasures, gambling during the day, and fighting at night.
In fact, not only the Grand Master Donk, but also the rest of the Pirate Regiment.
But Donk's good life didn't last long, and Seba Stephen's arrival ruined his vacation.
"Is something wrong?" Donk asked sleepily, he smelled of a woman's perfume all over his body, and there were faint lip prints on his neck, and he didn't even tie his trouser belts, and he was half pulled out.
After Seba Stephen sat down, he said happily, "Captain, your reputation has brought you good luck. ”
"Oh? How so? Could it be that a little girl has come to give me flowers? "Donk came a little spirited.
"In the past few days, people have come to you one after another, and they want to defect to you, at first I took a few people for you, but now the number of people is increasing, and it has reached more than two hundred, I feel that I have to come to you to discuss."
Seba Stephen was stationed at the hotel, and when people asked around about Donk's name, he found it and said that he wanted to join the dragon pirates. Because Donk was in a nightclub, few people knew about it, so those people couldn't find it.
Tang Ke's eyes widened a little, and he said happily: "It's really a good thing!" Let's go, take me to meet them! He cleaned up, washed off the red marks on his neck, and followed Seba Stephen to the hotel, where more than 200 people gathered in the huge courtyard.
"Hey! He's Donk, and I saw him in the harbor that day! An energetic young man shouted.
The crowd rushed up like a tidal wave, shouting "I want to join your pirate group", "Please accept me", "I want to follow you to a duel with Goldbeard", "I want to pilot a magic ship", and the scene suddenly got out of control.
Tang Ke couldn't stand this enthusiasm, he took a step under his feet, flashed out of the gap in the crowd, thrust his sword into the ground, and fired a shot into the sky, and the loud sound was like cold water pouring down, which made the crowd sober up a little.
"People who want to join the Evil Dragon Pirate Group come to report one by one, and there are people who disrupt the order, don't blame me for being unkind!" Donk shouted with a stiff face, but in fact he was very happy in his heart. He discovered another benefit of prestige, and that was unprecedented appeal!
The appeal is like a flame, attracting moths from all walks of life to pounce!
Donk has discovered that the Pirate King system is not a panacea, and it is impossible to dominate the sea with point exchange, and this system can only be used as a powerful aid. If he wants to become bigger and stronger at sea, he still has to look at the real world.
For example, in terms of sailors, if he uses the system to recruit, it will cost hundreds to thousands of points, and these points are difficult to get, but if you recruit from reality, you only need to spend some gold coins, so why not.
The recruitment of the dragon pirate group has begun, and it is in full swing. Donk set up a table, just like an employee interview, one by one, and when he met someone who claimed to be superb, he used investigative techniques to distinguish the truth from the false.
Seba Stephen goes to prepare a large number of contracts, and some small pirates run to help keep the law and order. Wendy also stepped in to help with the checks, and she was able to test those who wanted to join the pirate group with some nautical questions.
After half a day, Donk was so busy that his throat was going to smoke because he talked too much. But this job can't be entrusted to others, because he is the only one who has the investigative skills. Although he was very tired, he maintained a high enthusiasm for work, because among the more than 200 people who came, there were some maritime talents!
Sieving through the frail and sickly, the too young, and those who came to make up the numbers, Donk recruited more than a hundred able-bodied sailors, including a first-order captain, two helmsmen, two lookouts, three sail controllers, three surveyors, four star officers, and four standard-bearers!
Although there are no outstanding combat professionals among these newcomers, these seafaring talents are also indispensable to the pirate group. At least with these people, the dragon pirate group has two more ships, and there is no need to worry that no one can drive it.
It took Donk a full three days to sign a contract with everyone. Although the effect of this contract is limited, it is more meaningful to the agreement between people. He gave those talents corresponding positions, and for those who had some ability, he immediately issued a part of the commission to win people's hearts.
After the recruitment of manpower stabilized, Tang Ke paid to charter this hotel for the people of the dragon pirate group to live in, and sent a message to recruit all the old pirates hiding in various courtyards and held a banquet together.
More than 200 people gathered in the huge restaurant, and the crowd was crowded.
Tang Ke stood on the stage at the head, and behind him was the banner of the Evil Dragon Pirate Regiment, he scanned the crowd with his eyes like a torch, and saw unfamiliar faces, this group of people would become the new force of the Evil Dragon Pirate Regiment.
These people come here with a mixed bag, each with a different purpose.
Some people wanted to make some money as pirates, and when they heard that there was a famous pirate in the port, they recklessly joined in; Some of them were old pirates who wanted to fight the legendary Goldbeard, so they joined; There are also some young people who have just graduated from the Maritime Academy, and they have admired the magic ship for a long time in the ivory tower, even if they have fallen into pirates, they want to conquer the sea on the magic ship!
"Everyone, I won't talk about the scene. Since you are willing to join the dragon pirate group, you should be a little prepared. You have to know what pirates do. Especially those young chicks who haven't even grown a beard, you have to be mentally prepared for the rest of your life at sea. ”
"The sea is full of riches, a merchant ship laden with gold, a new land untrodden, or a great treasure chest buried in the sand by the pirate forefathers, full of unknowns, as alluring as a woman in bed. But the problem is that there is a certain amount of risk associated with getting these things, we have to go through the storm, we have to face the navy. Those glittering riches will be obtained from the blood-stained edges! ”
There was silence, except for the flickering of candles, only Donk's words echoed through the room. He wore a brand new flannel suit today, a taffeta scarf around his neck, dazzling jewels on his hands, and even the pistol at his waist was encrusted with emerald gemstones.
Tonk is showing off his wealth nakedly, but it's to convince people that pirates have a future, that this tempting prospect of profit can make people's heads hot, and that pirates need this madness beyond reason.
"My pirate group has a set of rules and regulations, which are basically the same as those in the "Pirate Code", including no private fighting, no forcible * annihilation of women, and so on. In addition to this, I have one more point to emphasize. As the head of the regiment, I have supreme power, and everyone must obey absolutely, and my orders are higher than the so-called rules. ”
Tang Ke's sharp gaze scanned the audience, revealing an iron-fisted demeanor.
All the newcomers understood that the owner of the Sky was by no means a good one!
"Your choice is wise, the Dragons Pirates have a very bright future, we have two magic ships, a sharpshooter with a hundred shots, a lookout with farsightedness, a captain who can talk to fish, a ship doctor who can eat with his face, and a gunner who can make 'cabbage'...... And I, the head of the regiment with magical powers. As he spoke, he grabbed a bottle of wine out of thin air, causing a wave of surprise from the audience.
This is a deliberate trick he is showing off in front of people, just spend some points and exchange a bottle of wine from the system. To outsiders, he just grabbed a bottle of wine out of the air.
Also, when Donk said "the ship doctor who can eat with his face", Seba Stephen glared at Donk hatefully.
"In short, we will bear the notoriety of the Dragon Pirate Group in the future, and together we will search for our future on the sea. May we all get what we want. Tang Ke swept away the solemnity just now, showed a smile like a spring breeze, opened the wine bottle, and took a sip of reddish-brown wine, which was sweet in the mouth.
"Cheers, everyone! Long live the Dragons! The big man jumped to his feet and raised his glass. Immediately afterwards, the wine glass was raised, everyone drank heartily, and the banquet officially began.
The restaurant was boiling, and everyone sat down around ten rectangular tables, pushing glasses and changing lamps with each other, chatting loudly and unscrupulously. Some young people are drinking for the first time, and many choke after a few sips.
The long table was plentiful, with chocolate cake cut into several pieces, red sausages in strings, and oily roast duck divided into several pieces. In addition to meat dishes, there is also potato soup and pea sprouts as a side dish. Wine, whiskey, vodka, rum and more are all available.
This time the dinner party was full of joy, and Tang Ke was so drunk afterwards that he couldn't remember who he had drunk with.
