Chapter 218: A Plate of Whale Meat
Speaking of this pharmacist, I have to mention Achedna, she and Zuoan were wandering around the major pharmacies yesterday to find rare herbs, and she happened to meet this pharmacist who was bargaining with the shopkeeper, and this herb she fancy is indeed more precious, this plant alone is worth twenty gold coins, but this pharmacist woman is only willing to pay fifteen gold coins, and the two quarreled.
Originally, Achedna didn't want to pay attention to these two people, but at this time she also recognized this precious herb, so she didn't bargain, and directly took out twenty gold coins to buy it, and the shopkeeper was naturally happy, but the pharmacist didn't do it, pestering Ichdena to buy this herb, of course, she was still only willing to pay fifteen gold coins.
The herbs that were bought for twenty gold coins were only sold to others for fifteen gold coins? Even if people with bad brains wouldn't do this, Akidena wouldn't agree, and in the end, Zoan, who was annoyed by the woman's quarrel, pushed her to the ground regardless of her demeanor, but it didn't matter, the pharmacist woman was crying so much on the street, and finally Akidena couldn't stand the crowd of onlookers around her, so she picked up the woman and pulled her to a nearby alley to ask why she needed this herb.
It turned out that the main research direction of this pharmacist was planting, but she was not very proficient in the understanding of medicinal properties, and she was not wealthy, but she just wanted to buy this herb and use it as a seed to try to cultivate it.
Her statement also aroused the interest of Akidena, she has always been worried about medicinal herbs, many herbs can also be effective after being unearthed but will slowly reduce the medicinal properties over time, so although she bought a batch of commonly used medicinal materials in Flange and Pirate City for backup, she also has her own idea of planting medicinal fields, but although she has this heart, she does not know this knowledge, and the knowledge about medicinal herb cultivation is basically controlled by those big business houses and big nobles and even the royal family, and there are too few people who know about these, so even if she wants to learn, she can't find this opportunity。
In the end, I don't know how Achedena managed to convince the female pharmacist, but she showed up at the scene when Sojath was recruiting, and was hired without much difficulty.
During the night, Sojes had chartered a restaurant to entertain all the recruited sailors, but the news did not inform the old pirates who did not know where to run to have fun, and in fact no restaurant could accommodate these thousands of people.
More than 500 newcomers plus dozens of old people and a group of cadres all gathered in this small scale restaurant, Sojes stood on the stage as the head of the group, and a flag of the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment was hung on the wall behind him, now he looked complacent, looking at the crowd below with blazing eyes, although these people are still very unfamiliar now, but he believes that one day these people will become the spearhead of the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment.
"All the newcomers here, I won't say much nonsense, since you have chosen the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, you must know what pirates do! I think there must be some young chickens here who have never even fought once! Don't laugh! This is not a shame! Everyone has come here for the first time! I bring it up now to let you be prepared! Otherwise, when you get on the boat, there will be no chance to regret it!"
As he spoke, there was silence in the huge restaurant, and all eyes were on the young pirate leader, who also wanted to hear what this young but powerful pirate leader could say.
"The sea is fair, the more you give, the more wealth you will reap, like those merchant ships full of jewels, or the treasure chests buried somewhere in ancient times, or even the sea itself is actually a wealth that can be used for a lifetime, depending on how you choose to treat it!"
"But as I also said, the sea is fair, and with wealth comes danger, and before you fantasize about one day being able to sit on a mountain of gold, you'd better imagine yourself being shot in the head by a bullet and having your neck cut off by a sword!"
"Don't think I'm scaring you, in fact, you don't even have the qualifications to be scared by me, the reason why I said this in advance is just to let you not drag us back after you get on the boat, I never thought that you rookies could help me make a contribution, if you feel dissatisfied, of course you can leave, I will definitely not be reluctant. ”
After saying this, there were indeed a few people in the restaurant who walked out with resentment, and after they went out, a few more people followed out one after another, and after almost 30 people left, the rest of the people had no tendency to leave.
"Wise!" I don't know if I'm talking about the people who stayed, or those who left, Sojes snapped his fingers, and then two pirates with a wooden box came out of the background, they walked to Sojes's side and put down the wooden box, when the lid was opened, the newcomers who were closer to the platform let out exclamations, and the people behind didn't know why, they also came over curiously, and then made the same sound.
The contents of the box are nothing unusual, they are just gold coins, but it is this naked way that people can see the gold coins that it is easier to arouse the desire for wealth in the hearts of these people!
The people who come here have different goals, some want to make money as pirates, and some are natural thugs who have their eyes on the banner of Dragon's Tooth and want to join a powerful team to do their bidding.
Therefore, these people are intuitive and simple, this box contains only 10,000 gold coins, this 10,000 gold coins is not too big a number for the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group, but this is a wealth that ordinary people who have never seen big money can never dream of, which makes them excited and at the same time makes them feel that piracy is indeed a profession that can obtain super high profits, just now Sorjes's words of disdain and ridicule have been selectively ignored by them.
"Since they all chose to stay, then I want to talk about the rules of the team, there are not many rules in our Dragon Tooth Pirate Regiment, the first is that private fights are not allowed, if the troublemaker is caught, once the mouth is slapped, twice the leg is chopped, and three times you become a ghost!
About six or seven of the remaining people left here, and there was no one to stop them from leaving, and in the end, although the remaining ones had made up their minds to stay in the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, they also knew that although this leader who was younger than himself seemed harmless to humans and animals, he was definitely a ruthless person.
Seeing that no one would quit next, a smile finally appeared on Sojes's face, and in his right hand, a pirate had already handed the prepared wine bottle to his hand, and raised the wine bottle high, Sojes said loudly: "Finally, everyone is welcome to join the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, even if one of us may one day stop, but don't leave regrets in life! Cheers!" After speaking, Sojes uncorked the bottle and took the lead in pouring the wine into his throat.
"Cheers, everyone! May everyone in our Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment find wealth!" Will shouted, and after Sojath also began to raise his glass, his roar also set the atmosphere up, .com everyone around the long table to push glasses and change glasses, many people shouted and laughed so unbridled as today, and unconsciously discovered that pirate life may not be as terrifying as originally imagined.
After the speech, Sojes returned to the table where the cadres were, this time they did not make any special arrangements, the dishes on the table were of the same standard as those newcomers who joined the group, but when he was just seated, the owner of the restaurant came over with a waiter.
"Hello, Captain Sorges, I am the owner of this restaurant, and since you are a guest here, I have specially sent a special food for everyone to help taste it. The boss spoke respectfully to Sorjes, and as he spoke, the waiter placed the plate in the center of the table.
"Thank you boss for your kindness, but forgive me for my shallowness, I can't tell what kind of meat is on this plate. Sorjes swept the plate out of the corner of his eye and truthfully voiced his question.
Hearing this, the boss's face also showed a look of triumph, "Captain, do you know, just last night, the Water Ghost Pirate Group hunted a giant whale from the deep sea, and this meat was bought and processed from them. "Oh?" Sojers' eyes lit up, but not because of this plate of whale meat, but because he thought of a piece of information about the giant whale that Chen Cheng knew from his memory.
