Chapter 185: Not for Sale
Wilton looked at the businesswoman, "What, don't you want these goods?" ”
The latter kept biting his lip tightly and did not speak
"It's okay, we're all civilized people, and we won't force anyone to trade, miss." Wilton waved his hand, and immediately one of his men pulled up one of the crew members of the Breeze, led him to the place where the sticks were inserted, and tied the latter, who was somewhat bewildered.
Wilton finished eating the apple in his hand, spit the pit aside, then rubbed his hand on his clothes, drew the knife again, and walked over to the stick.
"What do you want to do?" A sense of foreboding welled up in Karina's heart.
"You know, I've been curious about the anatomy of the human body since I was a child." Wilton used a knife to pick open the target's clothes, it was a young boy, his face was full of freckles, he looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, Karina remembered him, the boy was recommended by his uncle, named Booker, the two worked together on the Breeze, Booker was a very cheerful man, often with a smile on his face, but now he had only a look of horror in his eyes.
Especially when the knife went down his chest.
"What exactly do you want?!" The businesswoman said angrily.
Wilton smiled, and the knife stopped in front of the boy's lower abdomen, "Like I said, I just wanted to talk to you about a deal that you would like me to make." ”
Karina's eyes looked like they were about to burst into flames, but at this time she was alone, Wilton and his men had nearly two hundred men, two pirate ships, and only one person on her side, plus a person who had rushed to report the news, the latter was a stevedore at the former second-hand goods trading office, and she had no choice but to agree to the other party's request.
"How much do you want?" The businesswoman eventually had to compromise.
"That's right, it's not like nothing if you said it earlier." Wilton withdrew the knife and said with a smile, just when everyone thought that the danger had passed, no one expected Wilton to suddenly turn around after that, a cold light flashed between his fingers, and the next moment the knife stabbed directly into Booker's abdomen.
The latter let out a scream, but Wilton's eyes flashed with excitement, and instead of stopping, he continued to exert his wrist, making the knife go all the way up his navel, finally cutting the boy's lower abdomen open.
Karina had never seen such a bloody and brutal scene since she was a child, she covered her mouth, and her whole body was enveloped by great fear.
When she was a child, Karina had heard a lot of horror stories about pirates, these men who lived at sea were regarded as beasts and thugs by the civilized world, but after coming to Nassau, she found that the real pirates were not the same as in the story, they were also human, and they would have all kinds of feelings, and most of the people here were very reasonable, and there were people like Zhang Heng who coexisted with wisdom and grace.
Her impression of pirates was completely reversed, until Wilton appeared, only to reawaken the horrific memories of pirates in her mind.
Blood stained Wilton's right hand and knife red, and he took two steps back, tilting his head to admire his masterpiece, "Interesting, you know what, even if you are cut open in the stomach, you don't die immediately. ”
The businesswoman's gaze when she looked at him again had completely changed, and she trembled, "Didn't I already promise you?" ”
"yes, except for this one." Wilton took the handkerchief handed by his subordinate and wiped the blood on the knife, "This is not for sale, after all, in addition to making money, I also have to find a way to have some fun, right?" ”
After saying that, he showed two rows of white teeth to Karina, and with Booker's weaker and weaker howl on the other side, his smile made people can't help but feel chills.
"Don't worry, I won't make a random offer, now a sturdy black slave is worth five gold coins, then these experienced sailors I will sell you ten gold coins, the captain doubles again, I think the price is very reasonable, in addition to the four here, there are twenty-eight people on board, a total of thirty-two, oh no, now it is thirty-one, so a total of three hundred and twenty gold coins."
The businesswoman tried to calm herself, but when she spoke, she could hear her voice trembling, "I don't have that much money on hand right now. ”
"Then it's troublesome." Wilton raised his eyebrows, "Tsk, the price I gave you is already very favorable, it can't be cheaper, but if your money is really not enough, you can consider buying half of it, I can bring all the goods to you for you to choose, how about it, it feels good, it's up to you to decide their life and death, the people who are picked away will be grateful to you, and they will work harder for you in the future, as for those who are left behind......"
Wilton paused, "Of course they're going to hate you, but that's okay, I'll help you out of these troubles, as an add-on to this deal." ”
"No, I want all of them, not one missing." Karina insisted.
"Didn't I make it clear before? I'll give you as many gold coins as you give me, there's no place to bargain here. Wilton shook his head.
"I don't have that much cash, but I still have colonial property, give me some time, and I'll scrape together enough money." Karina's heart was full of humiliation at this moment, her own transport ship was robbed, the other party tortured and killed one of the crew members in front of her, and then planned to sell the rest to her, and now she not only agreed to the deal, but also begged the other party to give her time to collect the ransom.
Wilton touched his chin as if contemplating the businesswoman's offer, and moments later he walked up to Karina, picked up a strand of her hair with a knife, and leaned over to sniff it.
Karina had goosebumps all over her body, but with the tragedy that happened to Booker before, no one knew what Wilton, the madman, would do next, and the businesswoman could only stand still, close her eyes, and pray that it would all pass.
However, after a while, the devil-like voice came to her ears, "We are new to this place, and we happen to have a guide, so why don't you come and be a guide for us, and I will agree to your request." ”
"Who do you think of me?!" Karina opened her eyes, shocked and angry, "Those maids in the courtyard?" ”
"It's okay, a young woman has the benefits of being young, and if you're happy enough to serve us, maybe I'll give you back that transport ship of yours when the time comes."
Karina's body was shaking more and more, and she couldn't tell whether she was angry or afraid.
But just as she was about to despair, a familiar voice came from behind Wilton.
"I don't think she likes people being so close to her."
