Chapter 137 [Who is the robber?]
Wen Qiao felt that Jiang Lili had a lot of clever ideas and might have some new ones.
When the pirates heard Wen Qiao's words, they all looked at Jiang Lili beside Wen Qiao with pleading eyes.
They could see that both the owner of the merchant ship and the several powerful men with terrifying fighting power were vaguely protecting the girl holding an umbrella and attached great importance to her thoughts.
"These pirates..."
Jiang Lili looked at the huge group of pirates. If they killed them all, would the leader they talked about come back for revenge?
Then we have to go over and kill the boss as well. How many people will we have to kill then?
Now is the moment to decide their fate, and the pirates are nervous.
However, the girl holding the umbrella looked quite friendly and had dimples when she smiled. She looked like a very kind person. She wouldn't kill them all, right?
The fourth in command, Ge Zhu, smiled apologetically and said, "Look, we didn't cause you any damage."
He turned to Marquis Zhaoping and said, "Besides, I just helped this old man who fell down to his feet!"
Marquis Zhaoping snorted arrogantly, "You little bastard, don't think I don't know you're trying to see if I have any hidden weapons."
Sorry, he is still strong and can deal with these guys without using any hidden weapons.
The third in command, Rong Yi, also humbly pleaded, "Please be kind enough to spare our lives. We have no intention of killing you. We need to eat too. Our original intention was to steal the goods."
Upon hearing this, the convicts and sailors looked at the pirates angrily. These people's methods were really despicable, but the pirates' rule was not to kill people unless necessary and only to rob goods. But letting them go like this was really too easy for them!
Seeing Jiang Lili's hesitation, Xin Che knew that for ordinary people, taking so many lives would be difficult to accept. He walked over to her and said, "Don't be afraid. I'll take care of them."
When the pirates saw the evil god speak, their faces turned pale instantly.
In the eyes of this evil spirit, they are already dead.
The third in command, Rong Yi, shook his head, which was dizzy from being hung upside down. He couldn't die so easily!
"If you kill us, our boss won't let it go. From now on, your ship will be in fear every time it transports goods at sea."
Rong Yi half threatened, half persuaded: "The boss and the other brothers will not only target your Tianxuan and rob your goods, but they will also not spare your lives!"
Jiang Lili looked at Rong Yi with her sparkling almond-shaped eyes. She smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't kill you."
Jiang Lili agreed readily, and the pirates were stunned for a moment.
Rong Yi was also stunned: "Huh? So easy to talk to?"
Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Jiang Lili added: "Pirates' lives are also lives."
The boatmen were dumbfounded. Where did this naive person come from? He even showed sympathy for the pirates? How many people had lost their jobs because of these pirates?
The prisoners who were more familiar with Jiang Lili's style and had been slaughtered before smelled something unusual.
Yang Yunzhao, who had already suffered countless losses at the hands of Jiang Lili, thought that since Jiang Lili said she wouldn't kill them, the fate of these pirates might be even worse than being killed...
The pirates were still surprised that Jiang Lili was kinder than they thought and so easily influenced.
Ge Zhu immediately flattered him: "Young lady, you are truly a living Bodhisattva!"
"Good people will be rewarded, girl, you will definitely be blessed!"
The pirates looked remorseful and expressed their gratitude to Jiang Lili repeatedly.
Xin Che saw Jiang Lili's sparkling eyes and smiled. Whenever this girl had some tricks up her sleeve, her eyes would become especially bright and cunning.
After hearing Jiang Lili's decision, Wen Qiao, although he had doubts in his heart, still asked, "Then just throw them on the island?"
Jiang Lili nodded and shook her head.
"Aren't you going to rebuild your merchant ship? These people together must have forty heads!"
"They're pirates who've been at sea for years. They understand the characteristics and structure of ships, and they have experience attacking ships. They know which parts of a ship are vulnerable to attack. They're a perfect match, you could say!"
Jiang Lili glanced at the heaving sea in the distance and said, "Since it's too stormy to sail right now, let them serve as laborers to rebuild your ship."
Wen Qiao was amazed by Jiang Lili's words!
The Jiang Lili in front of me is still the smart little girl who hasn't changed at all. She can always come up with good ideas!
What? Labor? Rebuilding a ship?
The pirates, who were originally grateful for surviving the disaster, suddenly lost their smiles on their faces.
After hearing what Jiang Lili said next, they couldn't laugh anymore.
Jiang Lili scanned the expressions on the pirates' faces as if discussing the weather: "As for these people's lives, spare them for now."
"Those who perform well will be provided with food and a certain amount of rest time. Those who perform poorly will not be given any food. They will be made to work themselves to death and then given a lavish burial at sea."
My God, is this something a human can say?
Pirates’ lives are lives too!
Rong Yi and his group of pirates had seen evil people who killed people without blinking an eye, and they had also seen treacherous villains...but this was the first time they had seen someone who was comparable to the King of Hell.
If Jiang Lili knew what they were thinking, she would definitely complain that people in ancient times had never been beaten by the 996 society, and that these were all left over by the capitalists.
Not only the pirates, but even Wang Zifu, who used to bully the weak and fear the strong and commit many evil deeds, felt ashamed after hearing this. He handed the long whip he was carrying to Jiang Lili with both hands, "Manager Jiang, this whip is most suitable for you to wield."
Master Liao heard Jiang Lili's plan, his eyes widened, and he gave Jiang Lili a thumbs-up. "That's a good idea! If they die from exhaustion, it's their own fault, not ours."
Master Liao's baby voice uttered these words, and several pirates felt terrified. Is this a two-year-old child? Is this the devil reincarnated?
Wen Qiao was silent for a moment and then said: "...You two are really geniuses."
The pirates trembled like lambs to be slaughtered. No, what kind of people are on your merchant ship?
Wen Qiao glanced at the boatmen who were bruised and battered from fighting the pirates, and gave them the safflower oil he had gotten from Jiang Lili. "This medicine is effective for healing injuries to the muscles and bones, and it can also invigorate blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
When the boatmen saw the medicine that Wen Qiao handed over, they felt a little guilty.
Just now, when they were fighting with these pirates, Wen Kang, whom they had always regarded as their backbone, hid in the cabin with the elderly, the weak, women and children, afraid of this and that.
On the contrary, Wen Qiao, such a young girl, was so brave that she took a canoe and bravely occupied the pirate ship. She also successfully drove the ship back steadily. These experienced sailors were all impressed by her.
