Half a year later, several merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty passed through the waters of Maradi and were spotted by the "Shark Teeth". So Sushma personally led the team, robbed the merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty, and killed all the merchants from the Ming Dynasty.
Afterwards, he was dazzled by the gold and silver cargo on board, and he was hooked!
Since then, "Shark Teeth" has begun to focus on Ming Dynasty's merchant ships. Last month, it attacked Ming Dynasty's fleet three times in a row, allowing Sushma to make a fortune.
Just when Sushma was satisfied, a few days ago, a huge fleet suddenly came to the waters of Maradi, with thirty large ships all belonging to the Ming Dynasty.
At this moment, even the normally arrogant Sushma felt guilty.
Although I didn't dare to look closely at the fleet of thirty large ships, I did glance at it from a distance. Even the few merchant ships inside were frightening enough to see the guards with swords and guns on them.
In addition, after all, the bloodstains of the Ming Dynasty merchants had not been washed off her hands, so Sushma thought twice and decided to be a coward and avoid the limelight first.
But he was not worried that the fleet of thirty large ships would sneak into his home base, so he took pictures of three minions driving small boats every three days to investigate the movements of the fleet. .
At this moment, watching the three minions sent out walking through the crowd and coming to him, his eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted loudly: "Achim, Salman and Floz, my brothers, you Finally home!"
Sushma screamed affectionately, but these three people did not dare to really regard themselves as the leader's brothers. This was just a habit or gesture of Sushma. Anyone who really regarded themselves as Sushma's brothers Man, by now he had been secretly tricked to death, thrown into the sea to feed the fish, and completely disappeared!
The three minions hurriedly put one hand on their chests respectfully and bent down to salute: "Dear leader, we are back!"
Sushma waved her hand with a smile on her face: "Sit down quickly and tell me by the way, what news did you bring me today?"
None of the three dared to sit down, but they only recommended Achim to come out and answer: "Chief Sushma, we have been observing the fleet from a distance this morning. This fleet is very strange... "
Sushma narrowed her eyes, stood up, and walked towards the three of them: "What's weird?"
Achim looked at Sushma who was getting closer and closer to the three of him, and couldn't help but swallow. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, Achim would pull out his saber and chop him down.
But he still endured his fear and said: "When this huge fleet arrived in Maradi's waters, it neither landed to do business nor went to the city to replenish supplies, nor did it continue to sail away from this sea. Instead, it stayed here Hang around!"
Sushma's forward steps slowly stopped, and he frowned and returned to the Arhat's bed. He rubbed his chin in confusion, and muttered: "It's really strange, such a big fleet owner It was just making circles on the sea, and there was no other movement..."
"The fleet...the Ming Dynasty's fleet..."
The more Sushma kept talking about it, the more uncertain she became. Could it be that this Ming fleet came for her?
It shouldn't be such a coincidence!
Although Sushma comforted herself that it couldn't be such a coincidence, her worry could not be eliminated no matter what.
Sushma thought for a long time, and secretly made up her mind. After today's banquet is over, and when everyone under her command wakes up tomorrow, she will start to issue a ban, and no one except spies can leave the island!
At this time, it is more reliable to be patient.
Just when Sushma secretly decided to survive for a while, Salman, who had been standing behind Achim, suddenly whispered: "Chief Sushma, the armed merchant ships in the fleet are equipped with They all seem to be made of fine silk, porcelain and tea!”
Sushma's eyes suddenly widened: "Fine silk, porcelain and tea? Are you sure?!"
Achim couldn't help but glared at Salman fiercely. This guy really wanted money before his life. With such a powerful fleet, he actually wanted to seduce Sushma to make a vote. Isn't this looking for death?
But Salman had already spoken. At this time, Achim could only take over the words honestly: "That's what happened. Although we were a little far away from the fleet, we did see the people on the ship putting some dirty things on it." Broken silk, some fragments of porcelain and spoiled tea leaves were poured into the sea..."
"The silk floated along the waves in front of our ship. It was indeed of top quality... Although we couldn't inspect the tea leaves and porcelain fragments up close, since there is such good silk in this fleet, I would like to see the tea leaves and porcelain pieces on it. , it’s definitely more valuable!”
Gudong!
Sushma swallowed hard. High-quality tea, silk, and porcelain are almost as hard currency as gold here in Nanyang. If these things were all her own...
The more Sushma thought about it, the more beautiful it became... But soon, the fleet of thirty large ships broke into Sushma's mind... He shuddered hard, and then quickly shook his head. brain...
Then, he looked at the three people fiercely: "Remember! There are high-quality silks, porcelain, and tea on that fleet. Don't tell anyone... We can't take any risks now. When this fleet leaves, Let’s get active again!”
After saying that, she let out another helpless sigh. Sushma picked up the wine bottle and poured it into her mouth, hoping that the alcohol could numb her desire for these goods.
He, Sushma, was indeed greedy, but not to the point of risking his life for money.
Achim could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Sushma had suppressed the greed in her heart. He could see clearly this morning that there were many artillery pieces in the fleet.
If Sushma really loses his mind and competes with this fleet, it will definitely be Sushma who is unlucky. It is even very likely that the pirate flag of "Shark Tooth" will no longer exist in Maradi waters.
Thinking of this, Achim, who had already left Sushma, couldn't help but grabbed Salman's collar and said viciously: "You greedy bastard, you want to die, don't hurt us!"
In the pirate group "Shark Teeth", Achim's status is much higher than Salman.
Facing the rude Achim, Salman could only say with a smile: "Dear Achim, you also know how rich that fleet is. Who can face such a rich and filthy ship?" How can I still keep a calm mind when I'm in the team? I couldn't help but blurt it out just now!"
Achim snorted coldly, loosened Salman's collar, and warned: "Whether you really can't help but blurt out, or you have other thoughts, I still want to advise you to touch your poor little one before speaking. Brain, don’t lose your life!”
"Yes, yes, that's natural!" Salman watched Achim leave with a smile on his face.
It wasn't until Achim was out of sight that Salman snorted: "What the hell! Everyone is a pirate, and pirates have to rob and kill them! Why are you pretending to be a wise man or a sage?"

Floz, who had been silent until now, slowly spoke: "Achim, Sushma is unmoved, what should we do now?"
This time he went out to explore the Ming Dynasty's fleet. After seeing how powerful that fleet was, Achim had been worried, but Salman and Floz had long been greedy.
They estimated that as long as Sushma was willing to do this job, even if they just drank some soup, they would be able to eat and drink enough to keep the business open for several years.
Therefore, the two of them agreed that when reporting the news to Sushma, the articulate Achim would describe the wealth of the Ming Dynasty fleet to arouse Sushma's greed.
Unexpectedly, Sushma actually resisted such a big temptation and shrank her head like a turtle. The arrogance and arrogance she used to have suddenly changed after encountering the Ming Dynasty's fleet. Became timid and cowardly!
Thinking of this, Achim couldn't help but stamp his feet: "Hey! Who would have thought that Sushma would actually give up? Presumably this fleet will still be active around here in the past few days. Let's take a look at the situation first. talk later!"
After Floz heard this, although he was dissatisfied, he also understood that this was the only way now, so he could only nod helplessly: "Let's do this first!"
The two of them decided on the charter, no longer thought about it, and soon joined the carnival in the cave!
The next few days went exactly as Achim had guessed.
This Ming fleet is still swaying back and forth in this sea area, neither leaving nor landing.
Achim and others were relieved, but they really couldn't figure out what this fleet wanted to do.
The pirates were confused, and some in Maradi were on pins and needles.
Maradi is a small state in southern India, with twenty small cities under its jurisdiction. The total area is only four hundred miles in radius, which is almost the same size as a county in the Ming Dynasty.
It is said that people rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and rely on the sea to eat the sea. Because this place is located on the coastline, Maradi relied on its natural location to engage in maritime trade and develop marine fisheries. Therefore, the state is quite wealthy and powerful.
Even in the entire southern India, they can be regarded as number one.
But these days, Sitarama, the monarch of Maradi State, is having a hard time day and night.
Because a huge fleet appeared in his waters, and the most terrible thing is that this fleet flies the flag of the Ming Dynasty.
Yes, it’s the celestial country in the east, a giant-like country.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty's fleet came as soon as it came, and it was just wandering around on the sea. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty did not look down on this small country of its own and would not do anything to Maradi.
But last month, the pirates "Shark Teeth" in Maradi waters robbed Ming Dynasty merchant ships three times!
Logically speaking, what is the relationship between pirates plundering Ming merchant ships and Madila?
At most, they were questioned about the incompetence of the Maradi people and the lax governance of the people.
But this is your own territory. What does your management have to do with it?
All in all, Madila doesn’t need to be vain.
But the problem is that these all have a premise, that is, if Ming Dynasty does not send out troops and really cares, Madila can be confident.
The key point is that Madira's current situation is abnormal and unreasonable.
The number of pirates in the Madira waters changes almost every few years, either because the pirates are at war with each other, or because they offend someone they shouldn't, they are wiped out directly.
But there are always some groups of pirates that have never been changed. Even the most stupid person will understand that these pirates must have a background, but they just don’t know which force the background belongs to.
"Shark Out" is such a pirate force with a background, and their background is none other than the royal family of Madhira State!
In fact, the first founding monarch of Madhira State was a pirate. After he came ashore to clear his name and found the country, he did not disband his pirate forces.
Instead, he regarded that pirate force as his own black force.
Many dirty and dark jobs that are inconvenient for the Madira royal family are done by this pirate force, and this pirate force is the "Shark Teeth"!
The monarchs of Maradi State changed from generation to generation, and the "shark-toothed" pirates were also constantly updated.
In today's generation, the current Maradi monarch Sitarama is over sixty and has begun to try to slowly transfer the power in his hands to his eldest son Hamid, including the pirate force "Shark Teeth".
But unexpectedly, last month, Hamid went behind his back and ordered "Shark Teeth" to secretly rob Ming Dynasty's merchant ships, three times in a row!
This bastard has no idea how terrible Ming Dynasty is. He is only dazzled by the benefits in front of him!
Thinking of this, Sitarama felt angry. He thought that he should consider changing his successor!
Just when Sitarama was in confusion, suddenly a young, burly man wearing gorgeous clothes strode into his palace. It was his eldest son and the mastermind behind the plunder of the Ming Dynasty merchant ship, Hami. Virtue.
"My respected father, your son Hamid, sends you my most sincere greetings!" Hamid saluted Sitarama respectfully.
A sarcastic smile appeared on Sitarama's face: "My sincerest greetings? Are you afraid that you want me to die early so that I can move the land for you more conveniently?"
Hamid showed a look of helplessness on his face and whispered: "They did it very cleanly. No one else knows about it except the internal people. Please don't dwell on this matter. It will be fine." of!"
Hamid spoke sincerely, but in his heart he was dismissive of his father.
My father is really old, but he just robbed a few merchant ships. No matter how powerful the Ming Dynasty is, he can't cause trouble for us Maradi people out of thin air. Why is my father so afraid?
As soon as he thought about this, he couldn't help but recall the scenery of his ancestors when they were pirates!
Yes, in Hamid's mind, being a pirate is much more glorious than being the monarch of Maradi State.
He has read the diary of the first Maradi monarch since he was a child, which was handed down secretly from the royal family.
In that diary, the first-generation Maradi monarch recorded in detail his proud achievements as a pirate, that is, his annual income. These annual incomes actually exceeded the three or four years of taxes paid by Maradi State!
Moreover, back then, the first Maradi monarch and his men frightened the entire Southeast Asian countries. He would go to the palace of whichever monarch he wanted to spend the night in. He could be called the uncrowned king of the entire Southeast Asian countries. !
