Subversion of the pirate world

A port town in the East China Sea. After a long voyage, a combined fleet of navy and merchant ships stopped here to replenish daily necessities.

Of course, the captains are not needed for such specific work. At this time, they all gathered on the "Qiqi". Of course, these people were not invited by Taiyi. They gathered here on their own initiative. As for the reason, it was because they were against The naval officers escorting this time were very dissatisfied.

Because on the previous route, which was only a short distance, they only encountered two groups of pirates on the route, but they had encounters with four groups of pirates. Two of them were when they took the initiative to attack the pirates who were plundering, and The pirates who were plundering did not actually threaten their safety.

The root of everything lies with the ensign who escorted the navy this time. This ensign's sense of justice is really too much. They must protest. In addition to escort matters, they do not want these navy to interfere with anything else. , even to fight against pirates.

"Lieutenant Taiyi, I understand that we have spent a lot of money to escort you and the navy this time. We only asked you and the navy to escort you, not to fight against pirates." The leader among many captains, Yingjier. Disraeli, the vice president of the trading company, said to Taichi.

Taiyi glanced at the dozen or so captains surrounding the conference table, "I think this is everyone's opinion, right?"

"Lieutenant Taiyi, we respect your fight against pirates and your insistence on justice. However, we also hope that you can understand our difficulties. We are just businessmen. We just want this business to be without accidents. For this, we have paid our dues." 5000 beli." The person who said this was Cavour, the head of the Sicilian Trading Company.

"Lieutenant Taiyi did not delay your business. Now that we have encountered those pirates, do we still have to turn a blind eye?" Dasqi, who was sitting next to Taiyi, said angrily.

She never imagined that these businessmen would be responsible for the navy's fight against pirates, or that it was something more ridiculous than this.

"Ms. Daschi, we understand the justice of your navy, but we also hope that your navy can understand the difficulties of our merchants. We spent money and are your employers." Louis, the president of Valois Trading Company, protested .

"Everyone, I think you need to understand one thing first. The 5000 million Baileys you paid for it is your safety. Apart from that, we don't have anything you are responsible for. We have fought against pirates twice before. In our battle, did I rely on your strength?" Taiyi put his hands on the table and said expressionlessly.

"I am only responsible for your safety. As long as your safety is not compromised, I have completed my task. Also, you must understand that although 5000 million Baileys is a huge wealth, it is not enough to buy Justice for our Navy.”

"The justice of the Navy cannot be measured by 5000 million Baileys. When your safety is really harmed, you can come to me again. You are not qualified now." Taiyi said, already standing up, thinking about the meeting Walking to the training room separated by room.

Instead of wasting time with these merchants, it is better to invest in training to improve your own strength.

"Everyone, Lieutenant Taiyi's meaning has been made very clear. What you have bought is only your own safety, not the justice of our navy." Dasqi said seriously and excitedly, imitating Taiyi.

For these businessmen, Taiyi's words just now made them feel nothing but angry, but for Dasqi, it was completely different. At this time, Dasqi only felt that something in her heart was ignited.

The justice of the navy had been instilled in her memory when she was a naval cadet. However, justice was just a concept, and it was another problem to truly feel her existence.

Just now, Dasqi truly felt her 'justice'.

5000 million Baileys cannot buy justice in the Navy!

These words kept echoing in Dasqi's mind, and a feeling of excitement filled Dasqi's body. Under the hot blood, there was another kind of heat hidden, although it was weak, it was already there.

"We want to complain to the Navy Headquarters." The businessmen said without giving up.

"Whatever." Dasqi replied forcefully.

"Everyone, calm down, calm down, we are here to solve the problem, not to quarrel." Seeing that the two sides were stuck in a confrontation, Melly quickly tried to persuade them.

Although as a member of the merchants, he should be on the side of the merchants, but Taiyi to him is more than just the navy he hired this time.

Regardless of whether the boy at that time was Taiyi himself or his younger brother, the master's family could not treat him as a stranger.

"Merry, what do you mean?" Disraeli said coldly.

"Being harmonious brings wealth, and being harmonious brings wealth. Lieutenant Taiyi is also loyal to his duty in fighting pirates. We can't let Lieutenant Taiyi turn a blind eye when he sees the pirates wreaking havoc, right?" Meili said.

"Think about it, do you really want the navy to remain indifferent to pirates' plundering? If one day we are being plundered by pirates, and a navy passes by but turns a blind eye, what will you think? Don't you think so? Do you really want the Navy to be like that?”

"Actually, what Mr. Melly said makes sense." Louis from Valois Trading Company nodded.

"Everyone, think about it again. For us, between a just navy and a cold and numb navy, what kind of navy do you prefer?"

"Isn't it the embodiment of Ensign Taiyi's noble character that Ensign Taiyi can uphold the justice of the Navy? Isn't such an excellent navy a good thing for everyone? Why do people blame Ensign Taiyi?"

"The encirclement and suppression of pirates by Lieutenant Taiyi has affected our business a little, but we have also gained a lot. What we have gained is a trustworthy navy and a safer guarantee." Mr. Meili Talking endlessly.

At this time, Melly became the focus of the audience. Whether it was Dasqi or the businessmen, the eyes they looked at Melly changed.

Among all the merchants, Meili's ship is the smallest and the goods are the least. It is not even considered a trading company. Financial resources are the status among merchants. Such Meili naturally has the lowest status and the lowest sense of existence among the merchants. The lowest existence, usually, businessmen don't care about such a small role at all.

But today, they found that they might have to re-examine this poor companion.

"Yes, Lieutenant Taiyi's justice should not be criticized by us." Other voices appeared among the businessmen.

The so-called joint pressure collapsed.

Of course, the businessmen's alliance is not close enough. They just want to use joint pressure to force Taiyi to compromise. But when Taiyi shows a tough attitude, they have to consider their own situation.

Businessmen are more about negotiation than table-turning.
