Chapter 213: My People
Although Joseph hissed and shouted at me not to come forward, I was still unmoved, and pressed forward step by step, although Uncle Wei and Lin Ruyi behind me didn't know what I wanted to do, but they didn't dare to come up and pull me, and Leonard also chose to stand by, he probably wanted to see what secrets I still had.
"Although you are a guest of Lord Arthur, it doesn't mean that I can't shoot!" Facing my approach, Joseph shook the gun in his hand and gave a final warning.
At that moment, I suddenly accelerated an arrow step and rushed up, and then a standard military grapple buckled Joseph's wrist, Joseph didn't have time to react, just screamed in pain, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground, I raised my foot and kicked the pistol to the side, and then suddenly let go of my hand, and Joseph suddenly collapsed on the ground.
The rest of the matter became simpler, and I asked Uncle Wei to get a hemp rope from the cabin to tie Joseph tightly, and warned him that if he was rambling any more, even his mouth would be gagged.
Joseph was tied up and sat on the ground, but his face was still very proud, and he said to me: "Mr. Han, you are playing with fire and setting yourself on fire by doing this, do you think that you can solve the problem by tying me up?" If Master Arthur knew, it would be difficult for you to leave the Golden Isles alive. ”
I disdainfully said to him: "You don't threaten me here, since I dare to do it, I won't worry about any possible consequences, besides, why are you still so stubborn after you are like this?" If I kill you and throw you into the sea now, and then find a random reason to say that you are missing, what else can Arthur do to me? ”
"Hey, Mr. Han doesn't have to think too much, even if Arthur knows, what can he do? As long as you and I work together, I can guarantee that Arthur won't hurt a single hair of you. Leonard on the side took the opportunity to say.
"Humph! You underestimate Master Arthur. Joseph shook his head mysteriously, and then fell silent.
I don't know if I underestimate Arthur, I don't have any interest in Arthur now, this Mayflower is the focus of my mind, with this ship, let alone the Golden Islands, where in the world can I not go?
After looking at all the cabins, I said to Leonard, "I've got my eye on this ship, how about it, you pirates of the Golden Isles should be honest, right?" ”
Leonard shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course there is no problem on my side, but one thing I must make clear first, you can drive this ship away, but everything on board cannot belong to you." ”
"That's not right, is it?"
"I think it's a good fit, especially the weapons in the weapons room I'm going to keep."
"Half of you at most!"
"You're just a merchant in the rum business, what's the use of those weapons?"
"Merchants who go north and south also need weapons to escort them."
After some confrontation, Leonard reluctantly agreed to my proposal, in fact, he also had his own little calculation in his heart, the Mayflower looks quite advanced, but the problem is that it is impossible to open this cliff hole.
"And what about this person?" I asked, pointing at Joseph.
Leonard looked Joseph up and down twice, then touched his chin and said, "Although even if I let him go back to inform Arthur, I am not afraid, but more is better than less, otherwise let him shut his mouth forever, right?" ”
"I think it's okay, but I'm a businessman after all, and I can't do anything about killing, so I'd better let you come."
"Yes!" As he spoke, Leonard took out his gun and pointed it at Joseph, and Joseph also felt the real murderous intent in Leonard's eyes, and he hurriedly said, "Don't mess around!" Master Arthur had already made arrangements before I came today, and Leonard and your people should have been co-opted by now! ”
"What?" A hint of surprise flashed in Leonard's eyes, but he quickly showed relief, and he smiled and said, "You think you can bluff me?" Arthur, can he take in my people? ”
"Hmph, so you think all your people are trustworthy? Do you think Master Arthur will easily give you this opportunity to contact Mr. Han alone? Joseph said coldly.
"What do you mean?" Leonard felt a little uneasy in his heart, but still asked with a pretended calm.
"What do you mean? You should have guessed what it meant by now, right? ”
"I'll kill you first!" Leonard was stimulated by Joseph's words, and immediately became angry, raised his hand and was about to shoot, I quickly grabbed him and said, "Don't be impulsive, maybe he is deliberately deceiving us." ”
Bang Bang Bang! Suddenly, there was a fierce burst of gunfire outside the cabin, and we were all taken aback, so I asked Lin Ruyi and Leonard to take a gun and escorted Joseph to the deck.
On deck, we saw Arthur and Scar Man standing there with dozens of pirates, and what surprised us even more was that Fanny's profiteer was also standing by Arthur's side, and in addition to him, the old captain who was waiting for us on the dock ship was also controlled by them.
After Leonard saw Vanney, he immediately understood everything in his heart, Joseph's bastard really wasn't cheating on us!
Leonard asked Fanny with a grimace, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Fanny touched his mustache and said angrily: "In this situation, you still can't see what I mean?" ”
"How dare you betray me!"
"I've never surrendered to you, so where did I say betrayal?"
"You!" Leonard was gritted his teeth by Vanney, and there was fire in his eyes, eager to beat Vanney into a hornet's nest immediately.
Seeing Leonard's angry appearance, Arthur was very proud, he shook his head and pretended to regret and said: "Alas, you are still too young, why are you in such a hurry to take over my class?" Speaking of which, I have always admired you, and I am an old friend of your father, and in a few years, when you have more experience, my position will not be yours sooner or later? ”
"You don't deserve to mention my father!" Leonard said with red eyes: "It's all this time, and you're still acting?" I'm really not as good as you in this regard! ”
Arthur smiled disapprovingly and said, "Young man, it's too easy to believe what others say. Without waiting for Leonard to answer, Arthur said to me again: "How is it, Mr. Han, are you satisfied with the things in my cave?" ”
I said, "Not bad, especially with this ship, I'm quite satisfied, but I don't know if Lord Arthur will be able to keep his promise." ”
"Of course, since I said that the ship in this cave is up to Mr. Han to choose, I naturally won't be reluctant."
"Then thank you first."
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, you said that I was so friendly to you, and you still tied up my people, a little unreasonable, right?"
"This man wants to shoot me, do you think I should tie him up?"
"Oh, and such a thing? That should be tied up, but after all, he is my subordinate, and no matter what mistakes he makes, I should punish him, so I also hope that Mr. Han will hand him over to me now. ”
"No problem! It's just that my captain, Lord Arthur, should he be let go too? ”
Arthur glanced back at the old captain, snorted inexplicably and said, "My subordinates told me that this captain of yours has interests with Leonard. ”
Did the old captain have an interest in Leonard? Of course, I didn't believe it, and I said to Arthur, "Even so, in the same way, he is my man, and if he makes any mistakes, it should be punished by me." ”
