Darius thought for a moment and said, "That should be enough to barely gather three hundred people." [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Tang Jie muttered: "Three hundred, a little less......"

Although Darius didn't know what Tang Jie wanted these people to do, he couldn't help but make a suggestion on the side: "Dear Captain Tang Jie, why don't you consider buying more old people and children?"

Tang Jie glared at him: "Are you an idiot for me?" I bought these people to work, not to buy them to support the elderly and do good deeds, to buy them to consume my food?"

Darius wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh, he held back, and he said, "Dear Captain Tang Jie, you don't know about this. ”

Tang Jie looked at him puzzled: "Oh?"

Seeing that Tang Jie really didn't know what was going on, Darius explained to him in detail: "Captain, what you need to know is that the slave market in Sisis is now often filled with slaves from the Southern Continent with families as a unit, like those individual young slaves are only a few. Most of these slaves from the Southern Continent who were captured in the war were captured by their families, and the men brought their wives and children, and if they wanted to buy them, they had to buy them together. ”

Tang Jieqi said: "Why is this? Do you have to pack and buy slaves?"

Darius explained with a smile: "Captain Tang Jie, one of these slaves from the Southern Continent has a fierce and violent temperament, if you only buy one of their family, then the rest will die of hunger strike, without exception! The slave trader was afraid that if he bought one, the others would die, so he made the rule that they must all be bought." ”

Tang Jie couldn't help but be moved when he heard that these slaves from the Southern Continent were so strong, and he felt a little respect in his heart.

However, admiration is admiration, reality is reality, in the face of survival pressure, instead of sympathizing with others, it is better to care about how to survive first.

Tang Jie thought about it, but still shook his head: "No, according to that, if I buy a hundred men, I must also buy a hundred women and a hundred old people and children?

A sly smile appeared on Darius's face, and he shook his fat palm: "No, no, no, respected Captain Tang Jie, you don't know! If you buy a slave alone, of course the old people and children in the middle will lose money." But if you buy slaves in large quantities like yours, then the old man and children, they will be your best value add-ons!"

Tang Jie was stunned: "Why is this?"

Darius showed a typical merchant smile, treacherous and cunning: "You must know that in the family composition of the Southern Continent, the old man is the most respected, these dark-skinned barbarians love their elders, love their wives deeply, and are willing to die for their children. As long as you control the most helpless elderly in the family, you are equivalent to controlling the whole family, and at the same time, the women of the family can do some other lighter tasks for you, such as washing clothes and cooking. ”

"The presence of these women will also go a long way in removing the hostility of your slaves! As long as they are well, their men will do whatever you want them to do for you! As for the child, ha, the captain, the child is a pure blank sheet of paper, on which you can draw whatever you want. If you teach them to fish today, they will catch a boatload of fish for you tomorrow, and if you teach them to fight today, they will be your most reliable warriors tomorrow!"

Darius spoke eloquently, his eyes shining brightly: "Think about it, you bought a hundred slave families, and you have a hundred wise old men who can help you manage the slave group, a hundred hard-working maids, and a hundred sturdy dark-skinned slaves, their strength is far beyond that of our Eastern Continent race, one can top two men." In the end, you can also get a hundred complete and outright private troops who obey you alone, your current Boy Scouts, your future Praetorian Guard!"

I have to say that Darius's words deeply moved Tang Jie.

Tang Jie stood up from his seat suddenly, and looked Darius up and down with his eyes like electricity, as if he was re-examining this fat and greedy businessman, this guy is definitely a talent!

Tang Jie's eyes were full of shock, he knew that he was persuaded by this fat-headed and big-eared businessman.

"I underestimate you, Darius!" Tang Jie looked at Darius, nodded slowly, and his tone was full of appreciation, "Are you willing to follow me, I can make you the most powerful person in the world!"

Darius's head shook like a drum: "Spare me, respected Captain Tang Jie, you leave me alive, maybe there will be more and better deals between us!"

Darius is cunning and cunning, how could he be fooled by Tang Jie's empty check?

Especially since Tang Jie doesn't have any power now, only himself and Nia William Bill and other most loyal subordinates will believe this kind of thing, and a businessman like Darius who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles will definitely not believe it!

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Tang Jie is now a powerful pirate, Darius will not tie himself stupidly to the pirate in the same boat.

You must know that coercion and helping pirates is just a raid on your home and imprisonment, but if you become a pirate, you will be beheaded and hanged!

This bottom limit must never be crossed!

Seeing the sleek and firm refusal of Darius, Tang Jie did not force it anymore, he glanced at Darius meaningfully, and secretly admired the business principles and mind of this cunning businessman.

"Captain, since we have reached an agreement on the second one, why don't you talk about the third one?" Darius's eyes turned a few times in his sockets, and his expression no longer had the same sluggishness that he had been shocked by the red aria at the beginning, but now his eyes were extremely agile and showed a fox-like cunning.

Tang Jie nodded and bent his third finger: "Third, I need a lot of food, preferably dry food, as well as carrots, apples and other vegetables and fruits to prevent scurvy, in addition, I also need a lot of wood and stones, and I will buy a few more merchant ships to carry these goods, is there a problem?"

Darius was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more and more surprised: "Dear Captain Tang Jie, do you want these to build a castle? I can get the things you want, but where do I transport them?"

Tang Jie shook his head and looked at him sharply: "If you shouldn't know, don't ask, I'll tell you when the time comes!"

Darius obediently closed his mouth.

Tang Jie looked at Darius: "Are you okay with these three?"

Darius pondered for a while, as if he was trying to fulfill each of these three conditions, and after a long time, he nodded slowly but firmly: "No problem!"

Tang Jie showed a smile on his face, and unconsciously glanced at them with Nia and smiled at each other.

Darius then said, "However, I also have one condition!"

Tang Jie turned his head in surprise: "Oh, what conditions do you have?"

Darius showed a greedy look in his eyes, his eyes stared directly at the bulging cloth bag in Tang Jie's hand, and he rubbed his hands: "Can you prepay a part of the deposit first?"

Tang Jie smiled dumbly, he shook his head, and instead put away the cloth bag.

Darius saw Tang Jie put it away, his eyes suddenly showed a heavy look of disappointment, and he was about to protest, but he saw Tang Jie take another fist-sized cloth bag from Nia's side.

Tang Jie threw the cloth bag in front of him and said with a smile: "This is the deposit I gave you! When the matter is completed, I will hand over the gems on my hand to you!"

Darius opened the cloth bag and saw that it contained dozens of small crystal clear diamonds, and there were at least a million gold coins when converted!

That's a ridiculously generous deposit!

But compared with the gems in Tang Jie's hands, these broken diamonds are much less worthless.

Thinking about the red aria and the other nine gems in Tang Jie's hand, Darius felt like he had swallowed twenty-five little mice in one go, scratching his heart with a hundred claws, which was very uncomfortable!

He thought for a moment and said, "No, if I do something, you have to pay one-third of the gem!"

Tang Jie saw that this fat-headed and big-eared guy was full of businessman's breath, he smiled and shook his head categorically: "No, what if you take it and run away? You must know that any one of these gems is enough for you to eat for a lifetime!"

Seeing that Tang Jie's eyes had no room for maneuver, Darius sighed in disappointment: "You are really a hard-hearted guy! I am exchanging my life for money! You are not willing to give in at all, and these things are too dangerous, I will think about it again!"

Tang Jie laughed: "I once heard a saying: When the profit reaches 50 percent, you businessmen will do whatever it takes; when the profit reaches 100 percent, you will take risks; and when the profit reaches 300 percent, you will dare to trample on all the laws, dignity and morality in the world and sacrifice yourself for money." So, don't tell me that! It's a big gamble that you can refuse to participate in!"

"But when you get old one day, and you think of tonight, will you regret not having the courage to participate in this big gamble?" Tang Jie smiled slightly, his tone full of an inexplicable bewitching power.

Darius was shocked, and he jerked his head up, staring intently at the black-haired pirate, the face of an excessively young man.

He gritted his teeth, walked up to Tang Jie, stretched out his hand, and shook Tang Jie heavily: "Okay, I'll bet this time!"
