After hearing this, everyone immediately became nervous and asked Liu Guangting if he saw his hometown in the picture. Liu Guangting, on the other hand, answered fluently, and he gave an overview of everyone whose name was given!
The pirates were almost desperate! What Liu Guangting said may not be very accurate, but their hometown is in the sea area he reported. If you want to find it, you will definitely find it! Now everyone was downcast!
Liu Guangting looked at them and said loudly: "Everyone has a pig's brain! Aren't we no longer pirates now? Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that the army will encircle and suppress you? As long as you don't commit any crimes in the future, who will pay for you? His old home?”
Thinking of this, a pirate shook his head and said, "Damn it, you forgot that you are no longer a pirate!"
His words caused a burst of laughter! As everyone relaxed, they began to joke with each other, and the atmosphere in the tent relaxed!
Liu Guangting stopped them and said, "Listen to my third point! From now on, we can enter the port openly to supply supplies and purchase goods! We can also take jobs and go to sea. If we have the capital, we can buy goods and ship them overseas without any problem! No matter what You must pay the taxes you pay, and tax evasion is considered a pirate!"
Upon hearing this, many pirates jumped up and loudly expressed their opposition! "Big Dragon Head, why are you doing this? If someone is caught not paying taxes, they will only be fined a little money, but if they come to us, they will have their heads chopped off?"
"Yes, this is too outrageous!"
Liu Guangting raised his eyes and said: "Why are you making such a fuss? I already said that I disagree, but I think what they said makes sense! Master Li said that we originally lived on the sea and are familiar with waterways, ports, private harbors and bays. It’s amazing, it’s much more convenient to evade taxes than others! Moreover, we people have never paid a penny of taxes when we go to sea, so even if we are doing legitimate business, we probably have to think about leaking taxes, so that’s why we decided it like this. We have no way to bargain. room!"
Pirates, you look at me and I look at you, and then suddenly they all laugh "hehehehe"! It seems that all the pirates have this idea, but this road has been blocked in advance!
Liu Guangting knew what they were thinking by looking at their expressions. He cursed a few times and then continued: "The third rule is that all ships operating at sea must fly the navy's Qinglongya flag, and all other documents must be complete! The Qinglongya flag is held every year One replacement, each tooth flag costs three thousand taels of silver! If someone uses a fake Qinglong tooth flag, it will be considered a pirate!"
When the pirates heard this, they went crazy again! They were very shocked by Wu Ningbo's behavior! Someone said: "***, who is the pirate between us and Uncle Wu Ning?"
"That's right, we have to pay fucking taxes and buy tooth flags, so he made all the money!"
Liu Guangting slapped his thigh and said: "What's the fuss about? Do we have any room for bargaining? And you are all sailing on the sea. Don't you know how profitable this sea is? After one year, you can run far away with just one It only takes two or three trips to the nearest place, and the three thousand taels of silver will come out, and the rest is all earned, why are you still not satisfied?"
Then Liu Guangting read them one by one, making the pirates startled! Of course, his repeated explanations are indispensable. But more often than not, the pirates couldn't change their minds for a while. After a simple explanation and rough suppression, the pirates were able to successfully understand what Liu Haojia needed them to do?
To put it simply, they are still doing what they are doing now, that is, running sea transportation and continuing to be pirates! The core of the rules Liu Haojia set for them was that they could smooth out their previous lawsuits, but they were not allowed to rob Ming Dynasty's merchant ships again. As for those from other countries, you can still rob them, but Liu Haojia wants to share the spoils!
Anyone who travels to the sea must have the Qinglong Ya flag, whether you are doing business or transporting for others, it is the same! Moreover, the pirates also have to shoulder another responsibility, which is to patrol the sea while working. Anyone without the Qinglongya flag is their legal target! Liu Haojia also sat on the ground to share his dirty laundry!
Moreover, these pirates are also obliged to cooperate with other anti-bandit operations of the official army! Especially when the navy needs the cooperation of pirates for its foreign campaigns, the pirates must cooperate! Of course, military merit is still calculated and spoils of war are distributed!
And after Liu Guangting's explanation, the pirates fully understood why they were attacking
During the war abroad, Liu Haojia allowed them to "act cheaply"! In the words of one pirate leader: "This is a fucking robbery on order!"
But the pirates also complained that Wu Ningbo was too harsh! When dealing with others, there are punishments and beatings, but when dealing with them, it is just one sentence - chop off the head! After he complained, he was scolded by Liu Guangting again!
"Don't we know what we are? We are all fucking pirates, who can't be careful? We still can't wash away the gangsterism from our bodies. God knows one day we will start robbing ships again if our brains get hot!" If you don’t strictly control them, you will all go to heaven! Besides, it’s already a great virtue from our ancestors to get to this point. If any bastard ruins everyone’s good things, I don’t need to surround him with the army, I will kill him with my own hands!”
Liu Guangting then led the pirate leaders to discuss and implement the plan one by one. Who should take which channel? Who is responsible for patrolling? Which one is responsible for delivering supplies? The pirates were not reserved to begin with, but now they rolled up their sleeves and yelled in order to compete for benefits!
Some even rolled up their sleeves to fight! Even Jiang Tiaozi took turns shouting at his injured arm, his face turned red and his neck became thick! It wasn't until nightfall that, with Liu Guangting's mediation, a result was finally achieved.
They were discussing things in the tent, and the ordinary pirates outside were surprised! The leaders went to see Uncle Wu Ning in the morning, and then went into the tent for a meeting when they came back. Liu Guangting's men and horses were still surrounding the tent, and the surroundings were relatively tight. They didn't know what was going on inside?
However, from time to time, quarrels and cheers were heard from inside, which meant that nothing happened inside, but also made the pirates of various families confused about the situation. But since there was no sound of fighting coming from inside, it meant it was nothing serious! Anyway, these bosses usually scold others when they meet them, so a few quarrels are nothing serious!
As a result, they waited until long after dinner, and when the moon had risen, the people in the tent began to come out one after another.
Seeing the person coming out, the confidants of each leader hurriedly approached to ask about the situation, only to find that their boss had not had a wet tooth all day, and his face was actually glowing red! Do you still have to pay for the meal after a quarrel?
