Port of Peg ......

"Well, Jack, why do you spend so much money to recruit ship repairmen?"

Wilkie followed Sogers out of the brokerage firm, not only him, but even Cervantes and Genevia had a deep puzzle on their faces, they still thought that Sogers was just doing something stupid because of yesterday's hangover, and the reason why they had this perception was because of the various actions that Sogers had just made in the intermediary firm.

"Please ask this gentleman to help publish a recruitment message, and say, our Dragon Tooth Pirate Regiment has recruited a group of ship repairers with a heavy investment, ten people are the upper limit, and the monthly remuneration for each person is twenty gold coins, and there will be one hundred gold coins when they get on the ship, as for whether they are right to pay this honorarium, then we have to ask your trading firm to help review it." ”

Not to mention Will, even the person in charge who was accustomed to seeing the big money owner was a little confused, and at this time, even he had an urge in his heart to follow Sogers out to rob, why? Because this group of people is stupid and have a lot of money! Why do you say that? Nonsense! A ship repairer's monthly remuneration is 10% of Sogers's offer. He has to pay ten times the price, what is it if he is not stupid and has more money?

Leaving everyone's temporary address, Sojes led everyone back to the tavern, and along the way, no matter how much Will and the others asked, they didn't answer, which made them angry and curious about what kind of medicine was sold in the captain's gourd.

"I said, you should also explain the reason, right? Although it is not difficult to pay this honorarium with our current family background, you can also let us know how this money is not there!"

In Sogers' room, Will grabbed Sojath's shoulders and wailed in an almost pleading tone.

Having hung his appetite long enough, Sojes, who had had had enough, looked proud and talked about the reason why he did it.

"First of all, I didn't drink too much, I did it for the sake of the future. Clearing his throat, Sojes saw that everyone was still puzzled, and continued: "On the surface, we have been wronged this time, and we have paid almost a thousand gold coins more, which seems to be a loss, but in fact I don't think so. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and when Genevia saw that Sogers was showing signs of apprehension again, she stretched out her little hand, twisted his ear, and said, "Yes, you don't think so, then, and then?"

Being pinched by Genevia, Sojess couldn't open his eyes in pain, looking at the embarrassed appearance of the regiment commander, Will and Cervantes also showed gloating expressions on their faces, and seeing their expressions, it was clear that they would say: "Yes! Screw this goods hard! Let you spend money indiscriminately, is it fun to hang your appetite? Get pinched, right? Why don't I strangle you!

Genevia also knew the measure, and after twisting it twice, he let go, and Sojes rubbed his ears, which were still a little sore, with a bitter face, and then explained the reason for doing so.

It turned out that Sorjes usually likes to study the memory of the earth that Chen Cheng brought him in his spare time, and he found that although Chen Cheng is very arrogant, he understands a lot of things, such as what he is doing today, which comes from an allusion in Chen Cheng's memory: "A thousand dollars buy horse bones".

At sea, the status of ship repairers is only slightly higher than that of chicken ribs, not that they are useless, but many people are the same as Sogers thought before, so the forces willing to recruit ship repairers on ships are mostly those leaders with long-term vision, and even so, the price they give is only twice as high as the honorarium for the repairman when he worked in the shipyard, that is, the two gold coins that the previous person in charge thought.

By the way, although the profession of piracy is hated by the navy and nobles, for civilians, pirates are not a very evil profession, because what pirates plunder is only passing merchant ships, or through black and black, they can absorb or even destroy weak pirate groups, so ordinary civilians are not affected by pirates to a great extent.

Therefore, the profession of piracy has a great attraction for them, not that they yearn for crime, but that many people have such a hero in their bones, eager to swim on the sea and become the hero they yearn for in their hearts. It's a pity that this is also a military place, and no pirates dare to land here in peacetime.

To sum up, pirates are definitely a rare species in this province, and it would have caused a lot of sensation if Sojes, the pirate leader, dared to openly recruit people here, not to mention that he also spent a large amount of money to recruit ship repairers who were not important in the eyes of many people, so this will give people the illusion that this pirate group is very powerful, and at the same time, they will also treat their subordinates well, and after such a result, in addition to those ship repairers who come for the honorarium, there will also be a large number of adventurous people who will choose to join。

Speaking of this, Achedna suddenly asked weakly: "I still don't understand, even so, although we have recruited some people, but these people can also be recruited in the pirate city, why do you need so much money?" The indigenous girls have been eating and living well since they got on the ship with Genevia, and at the same time they have learned a lot of things, perhaps because of the nature of the girls, they are always more sensitive to money, especially after knowing the purchasing power of gold coins, and they feel distressed by Sogers's generosity this time, as if they are spending her money.

Seeing that she still had a miser-like expression, everyone was amused to laugh, and Genevia even laughed while stroking her little head, and explained with a smile: "Silly Nizi! Although there are many people in the pirate city, those valuable seafarers have long been recruited by various major forces, only your Uncle Will is an exception, but this will not be the case here, there will be people who have never met talents, and it is easier to find such talents in areas like White Province that have never been cared for by pirates." ”

Seeing that Ichdena still didn't understand, everyone didn't continue to explain, some things can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences, not to mention that Ichdena was just an indigenous before, just like a lamb, for these doorways, it is reasonable to not understand them.

"Jack, I know why the world has always been ruled by royalty and nobility, and you children of nobility can really learn things that we can't access. ”

Cervantes was convinced of Sogers's plans, but he didn't know that these did not come from aristocratic education, or that these things should be handed over to Sogers by civilians, after all, Chen Cheng was just an ordinary person on earth.

Cervantes's emotion made everyone agree, although Sogers knew the truth, he didn't break it, after all, Chen Cheng's crossing was too ridiculous, so ridiculous that no one would want to believe it even if he said it, he just chuckled and said:

"The man who taught me these things, heh, is a friend of mine, well, or rather, an opponent of mine!"
