Chapter 315: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Land (4000 Words)

The captain of the squad seemed to be in a good position, and soon made a table of food to entertain the guests, and perhaps he himself wanted to taste what the wine of the Great Voyage was like.

Pepper the Shark told the soldiers anecdotes about the Great Voyage and skilfully persuaded them to drink, and Brooke began to play music for a while.

Rui Mengmeng's eyes are quick, and her strong strength allows her to give full play to her work experience as a waiter, and whoever has an empty wine glass can be filled immediately.

The atmosphere was very harmonious, and the soldiers were so happy that they didn't even notice that Artoria and Tom had quietly eaten most of their appetizers.

Seeing that these people's cheeks were flushed, Zhang Da also began to ask questions like a curious baby, whenever they said something valuable, Ye Yan would boast and praise without restraint, and then Shark Pepper took advantage of their happiness to continue to persuade them to drink.

After the operation, these soldiers said everything that should be said and what should not be said, from the morning and evening work and rest to the changing of the guard, even how many things the transport ship brought each time, and how many people were guarded on it.

The watchtower has a total of five floors, and the area of each floor is not small, but each floor only lives thirty or fifty people, and the space is quite spacious, probably because there is no need to consider the land price here, and there is no need to calculate any labor costs.

According to this enthusiastic squad leader, there are more than 3,000 prisoners in charge, but there are only 200 guards, who are divided into several shifts to take turns to supervise the work, guard tower duty, and night patrols.

In general, the work is very easy, except for the occasional disobedience of the newcomers who are sent each time, there are few troubles, and the long labor and harsh punishment make many people forget the option of rebellion.

Even if there is a troublemaker, it will become one of the few pleasures for the guards, and the other forms of entertainment are nothing more than drinking, playing cards, and gambling when they are not on duty, and when they are in a bad mood, they can find someone to vent their anger, anyway, the status of those prisoners is almost equal to that of slaves.

The supplies here, including building materials, food, clothing, etc., are specially purchased and transported from nearby islands by a certain department of the world government on a regular basis.

When asked about the source of labor here, the team leader said that Zhang Daye knew about the same as them, and they were all prisoners from all over the world and people from non-franchised countries.

Most of the labor from non-member countries came from countries that had been attacked by enemies or attacked by pirates. The world government would not go out of its way to defeat a country for the sake of a few workers, but Zhang Da also guessed that it should be possible to secretly provide a little support or incitement or something.

Wendy and Xia Lulu watched with admiration as their brothers and sisters cooperated with each other's magical operations to extract information from each other's mouths, and tried to think about whether they could help each other.

Perona propped her elbows on the table, holding her cheek in one hand and despising the intelligence of the soldiers.

It's so stupid, after three glasses of wine, everything will be louder, and a few young people have even thought about when they will save enough money to go back to their hometown to get married, and the black-hearted boss seems to have said, what is this thing called flag in the story, right?

After Zhang Da also asked everything he wanted to know, there was no food on the table, and the soldiers were all drunk, but the shark pepper wine was very good, and he had been drinking with them since the beginning until now.

When Zhang Da also proposed to walk around, the captain also dizzily got them something equivalent to a pass, and with this thing, they could almost pass through this area unimpeded.

These soldiers are very dedicated, even if they drink too much, they insist on going to their posts and refuse to go back to rest. Zhang Da also casually said hello to them and left the watchtower.

"At night, ask the flag demon to touch the situation inside the watchtower." Zhang Da also said to Ye Yan that at least find out where things like the labor roster and keys are.

Ye Yan nodded, it was too easy to let the flag demon infiltrate at night or something, under Artoria's perception, there was no one here who could fight, and naturally no one could find out that the flag demon had sneaked in.

Rui Mengmeng asked, "What should I do next?" ”

Zhang Da also said; "Go to the construction site and take a look, and study how to separate criminals from ordinary people, and save people until the transport ship comes tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

As for where to let these people go in the future, Zhang Da had already thought about it, so let them go to the island of Frost Moon Village, which was large enough, and there was more than just Frost Moon Village.

The most important thing is that the island does not seem to be under the jurisdiction of the world government, or the jurisdiction is very small, and even Dorag once went there with the people rescued by the revolutionary army from the kingdom of Goa.

When the time comes, let those who are willing to go home find a way to go home, and those who are not willing to go back can also build another village. With Koshiro's character and strength, he should be able to help these people settle down, and he doesn't have to worry about them making trouble.

Of course, you have to find a way to cover up the whereabouts of these people, so that the pursuers can't easily find them, mainly because you can't trap Koshiro's family on a whim, so you have to be cautious.

The construction site is some distance from here, so Zhang Da also took out an artifact - Tom's classic car. (Chapter 36 lottery)

Because the seats weren't big enough, Tom made a car body to connect to the back on the spot, so that everyone could get on it.

"Are you sure this thing won't fall apart?" Ye Yan looked at the classic car that looked older than his grandfather, his eyes were full of suspicion, it was better to call the Chaos Beast or the Shark Giant to come out and travel on this thing.

"Let's try it, it's never been taken out since I drew it, and I can't fall to death anyway, get in the car and get in the car!" Zhang Da also sat in the driver's seat excitedly, pinched the old-fashioned horn, and made a 'horn' sound.

The others sat into the car with a look of novelty, they might have seen a car, but they had never seen such a classic style.

Zhang Da also held the steering wheel with both hands and shouted happily: "The old driver is leaving!" ”

Then, he was dumbfounded, how did this car start?

In the end, it was Tom who was replaced to successfully start the classic car.

I don't know if Tom has forgotten the sad past, or if it hasn't happened yet, but when he sees the car, he doesn't feel a little sad at all, but happily becomes the driver.

Sudden clatter, squeak, squeak......, crunch, squeak

This is the sound that the car makes when it is 'driving normally', and every time it makes a sound, the body undergoes a very exaggerated deformation, and Tom's body bumpers up and down with the driver's seat, but he himself is still driving very high.

The strange thing is that the person sitting in the back car body didn't feel the bump at all, seeing that the classic car in front of him was about to collapse and fly out, and the car body behind was nothing at all, and the driving speed was not slow.

Xia Lulu tried to raise her hands to cover her ears and complained, "It's so noisy, this car won't explode suddenly, right?" ”

Wendy fanned her hand in front of her nose, "And there's a bad smell." ”

Perona asked dissatisfiedly, "Why do you have to use this vehicle?" Just now I saw that the body and the four wheels are separated! It feels so dangerous. ”

Brooke was curious: "Yo roar roar ~ Is this the same tool as the sea train?" I feel that the noise is louder than the sea train. ”

Artoria didn't think much of it, and even wanted to try it herself.

"I don't think this car is fun, next time I will change to a good car to take you." Zhang Daye also has a sports car in his hand, which is the one driven by Tom's nemesis Black Cat Butch, a super elongated red sports car that can press classic cars into small pies, and he plans to take it out for a walk next time.

In this way, Tom drove for almost an hour before everyone arrived near the construction site.

The scene here was completely different from that of the watchtower, with countless laborers shouting trumpets and dragging huge stones with ropes, each wearing a uniform uniform with their own numbers written on them.

In addition to scaffolding, there are also several tower cranes fixed near the bridgehead under construction.

Zhang Da also rubbed his eyes, making sure that he was not mistaken, that is, the tower crane.

At regular intervals, a guard with a long whip in his hand would urge him, and anyone who moved slower would be whipped immediately.

Everyone looked at such a scene, and they couldn't bear it, but it was only because Zhang Da had specially told them that they couldn't bear to do it immediately.

As they approached the construction site, the sudden sound caught the attention of the guards.

"What do you guys do?" The guard only paid attention to Zhang Daye's identity, and did not show any strangeness about the classic car.

Zhang Da also got out of the car and took out various certificates to explain his origin.

"Tours?" The man looked at the certificate issued by his own person, his attitude improved, and he wondered, "What's so beautiful about this kind of ghost place, it's nothing more than working and working, and when you die, you will tick off a name and throw it into the sea...... Do you want me to lend you a whip to play with? Anyway, a few old guys won't survive for a few days. ”

"No, we're just going to take a look." Zhang Da also casually found a reason, "I heard that this is a seven-hundred-year project, and there are many vicious criminals who have been tamed by you, so I am a little curious." ”

"Hahaha, there's nothing wrong with that. No matter how vicious the criminals are, we can only obey them when they come here! The guard seemed to be very proud of this matter, "Seeing that guy doesn't, the number 9527 is a murderer from the Great Voyage, and that big guy, who originally had a bounty of 8 million!" ”

"Hiss~" Zhang Da also gasped.

The guards thought he was frightened, but in fact, Zhang Da was indeed a little surprised, he didn't expect that the prisoner of the Great Voyage would be sent here, and he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance so coincidentally.

That's right, the one who offered a reward of 8 million is the 'machete' Sword who allowed Zhang Daye and Tom to get the initial capital for their business in this world.

Is this a foreign acquaintance?

I haven't seen him for more than half a year, this big brother is a lot haggard, and for a while Zhang Da was also a little emotional, at that time, he could only win by relying on Tom, and now Zhang Da also said that he was humble to be able to fight ten.

As for the one with a reward of 500,000 yuan, he can barely be regarded as an acquaintance, Zhang Da also remembers that his name should be Hyde, which is the first bounty that Shark Pepper relied on after using the sleep learning function for the first time, and the recognition function recognized.

He couldn't remember how much the bounty was, but he was also a person who contributed to his plan to save money at the time.

If these two are here, does it mean that other pirates who have been caught by themselves may also appear here?

Zhang Da also calculated, from Chambord to the East China Sea, he has caught not many well-known pirates, but there are three or four hundred unknown bounties and pirate minions together, and there should be one-tenth of these three thousand laborers who are familiar faces, right?

"Is there a Devil Fruit Capable here?" Zhang Da didn't see the familiar red nose for the time being, so he asked casually.

"The Able? How can it be. The guard was much more knowledgeable than the average Donghai person, and he said, "Those who are capable will be sent to the Deep Sea Prison, and if you want to see it, I'm afraid you won't have a chance." ”

Zhang Da also continued to ask: "Then what kind of prisoner will be sent here?" The bounty of 8 million is already high in the East China Sea, right? Don't worry about them making trouble? ”

"If you offer a bounty for criminals, the maximum will not exceed 10 million Bailey, don't worry about making trouble or anything, that kind of person only gives one rice ball a day, just starve to death, even if you make trouble, it doesn't matter."

After answering the question seriously, the guard did not forget to brag about himself: "There was once a bounty of more than 9 million Baileys who refused to obey the discipline, and I kicked him down and beat him severely. ”

"This lord is so strong, it only takes one move to solve the pirates with a bounty of nearly 10 million, he is simply my idol!" Ye Yan may have persuaded him to drink too much just now, so he praised him by the way.

"Haha, you're very good at talking." The guard was so happy that he almost couldn't find the north, so he casually threw the whip in his hand to Ye Yan, "Okay, go wherever you want to visit, if you see which worker is not pleasing to the eye, just whip him, if you dare to resist, come to me, I will hang him up and beat you!" ”

"Thank you idol! Please sign me! ”

"Over there, don't be lazy!" The guard originally planned to continue to supervise the work, and roared angrily, but when he heard Ye Yan's words, he immediately turned his head again, and a bright smile bloomed in a second, "No problem!" Where is the sign-in? ”

"Just the cuffs, so I can see the words of the idol at any time." Ye Yan's expression was called sincerity, and he almost wrote the word worship on his face.

……

After staying away from the guards, Zhang Da also complained: "Don't be so exaggerated, did you secretly learn hypnosis?" ”

Ye Yan had a successful smile on his face: "It's just basic acting skills, this is also part of performance art, it's very simple to pretend to be an avid fan." ”

Without waiting for anything to say anything, Shark Pepper said, "Boss Tatsuya, there are indeed quite a few familiar faces here. ”

Walking around the construction site, he had already seen more than a dozen small bounties that he had caught before, and they probably recognized Shark Pepper, but they didn't dare to say anything at all.

Zhang Da also nodded, and he also recognized a few: "Should I say that these people are pitiful or deserve it?" ”
