Lingbel, oh no, it's sauerkraut. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

successfully replaced Ergou's job and became a servant who took care of Luo Xiaobing's daily life.

Ergou, who was deprived of job opportunities, not only did not have the slightest resentment towards sauerkraut, but was extremely happy!

Luo Xiaobing, the master, is not easy to serve.

"Sauerkraut, I want to drink water, bring the water and ......"

"Sauerkraut, the toilet is out of paper, bring me some......"

"Sauerkraut, my legs are so sore, help me hammer ......"

"Sauerkraut, my shoulders are sore too, help me rub ......"

"I asked you to rub your shoulders, why are you pinching my ears...... Oops! ”

"Dead fatty, I think Miss Ben is a bully, don't you, don't you want to rub it? Come on, I'll give you a good rub! ”

"No, no, no...... Help, help! ”

"This chick is very beautiful, why is she so fierce!" Luo Xiaobing rubbed his red and swollen ears with a bitter look on his face and came to the construction site.

Tens of thousands of robots of all kinds come and go, and the construction site is very lively, in addition to cleaning the stinky pool, a vacant lot next to it, and a house has been built.

At this time, Luo Xiaobing was determined to make a piece of his own paradise on the Baibao Star.

"Boss, you're here!" The second dog ran over.

"How's that girl? Cool or not! Ergou had a cheap expression on his face.

"Cool you big-headed ghost, that's what you asked!" Luo Xiaobing kicked the second dog angrily.

"How's it going for you to do something? Have all the personnel been counted? How many women are there? ”

Ergou handed the roster to Luo Xiaobing, "Except for sauerkraut, there are only thirteen women, but." ”

"But what?"

"Among the one hundred and twenty-eight pirates, in addition to women, there are also some old people and children under the age of sixteen, and there are only thirty-three who are really young and strong!"

"What! Only thirty-three? Luo Xiaobing thought he had misheard.

Ergou nodded, "I don't think these people are pirates, but refugees and wanderers!" ”

Luo Xiaobing looked pensive and touched his smooth chin, "You brought Roger for me!" ”

Answered, and the second dog took the order and went quickly.

Roger is the bearded pirate leader, who has arrested the other party for more than a week, and Luo Xiaobing has only seen it once.

In Luo Xiaobing's temporary office command post.

Roger, who was wearing a shabby leather coat and had a haggard face, came to Luo Xiaobing under the leadership of Ergou.

Not seen for more than a week, Roger's beard is longer and dirtier.

"Captain Roger, please be seated!" Luo Xiaobing greeted warmly.

Seeing Luo Xiaobing so enthusiastic, Roger was slightly stunned and sat on a chair quietly.

"Captain Roger, counting it up, we are also peers, there is one thing, I don't understand, how can your pirate ship be full of old people and children!"

Luo Xiaobing, who has never liked beating around the bush, went straight to the point.

Roger, who was originally bearded with a tight face, moved slightly, and looked at Luo Xiaobing with sharp eyes.

"If, I tell you, we are cornered pirates, would you believe it?" The bearded Roger finally spoke.

Luo Xiaobing nodded!

In Luo Xiaobing's view, there are no more than two kinds of pirates.

One is amateur pirates, who are mostly desperate and unable to make ends meet, forced to take this path.

The other is a professional pirate who plunders wealth just to satisfy his own selfish desires, and this is the scum of the scum

Seeing the other party nodding, a trace of surprise appeared on Roger's face, and he carefully looked at the fat man in front of him.

The fat man in front of him, although he was a madman, did not embarrass them, gave them food and shelter, and basically did not interfere with their freedom except for work.

This is already a very preferential treatment for a captive.

Suddenly, a crazy idea took shape in Roger's mind.

"Dear Pirate King, I have a request, I don't know if you can grant it!" Roger knelt on one knee and clenched his right hand into a fist across his chest, performing a pirate courtesy.

Luo Xiaobing's eyes rolled a few times, and he touched his smooth chin, "Let's talk about it!" ”

Luo Xiaobing is not a fool, in case the other party lets him die, he will also agree!

Of course, as long as the other party doesn't make excessive demands, Luo Xiaobing can basically consider it.

Roger's face was solemn, and he bowed his head and said, "I hope you can lend me the battleship Athena for half a month!" Give me two more drivers. If you don't feel at ease and are afraid that I will escape, you can send ten battle robots to spy on me. ”

The Athena is the bearded battleship.

Luo Xiaobing looked at Roger fixedly, and after a long while, he said, "Give me a reason!" ”

Seeing the fat man in front of him, Roger was a little surprised.

Roger's eyes were slightly red, "I'll answer you now, why are you on my boat, all you see are old people and children!" ”

"I am Lieutenant Roger of the First Brigade of the Sixty-seventh Army of the Federation and the Thirty-second Brigade, and the thirty-three middle-aged people are all my original subordinates."

"You're Union soldiers?" Luo Xiaobing's eyes widened, this was too unexpected for him, a good soldier, he actually became a pirate.

Roger smiled bitterly: "Do you want to ask, why did we become pirates if we don't do good soldiers!" ”

Luo Xiaobing nodded, this is exactly what he wanted to ask.

"The reason is very simple, because we have not extinguished our conscience, because we do not want to see those thousands of compatriots who are unable to work be humanely destroyed!" After speaking, Roger suddenly became excited.

"What humane destruction?" Luo Xiaobing's eyes widened.

"Of course you won't know these things!" Roger sneered, not knowing whether to laugh at himself or Luo Xiaobing.

"Do you know how many colonies there are in the Interstellar Federation Empire?"

Luo Xiaobing pursed his lips and said, "Isn't it just the six administrative galaxies and the forty-five colonial stars!" Elementary school students know it! ”

Roger nodded, "Very good, then let me ask you again, how many planets have water resources?" ”

Luo Xiaobing folded his hands and counted, "It seems to be thirteen!" Any questions? ”

Not all of the pristine colonization stars are suitable for human habitation.

Some colonial stars, the Interstellar Federation just value, there are rich mineral resources.

However, these original colonization stars, after being transformed, humans can still survive there, that is, food and water, as well as daily necessities, have to be sent over by transport ships.

Roger said with a solemn face: "Very good, you know that there are thirteen, which means that you have not forgotten your primary school knowledge!" ”

Roger's tone changed, and he said coldly: "The total number of human beings now has exceeded 100 billion!" With such a huge population base, the food and drinking water needed to eat and drink all come from those thirteen planets! Do you really think that the thirteen planets can afford it? ”
