Chapter 364 Slaves from the West Sea
Chapter 364 Slaves from the West Sea
"Polo-pololo."
The sound of a Den Den Mushi suddenly rang out, and it was not from the table. Lily took out the small Den Den Mushi she carried with her and pressed the button to answer the call.
"What's wrong?" Lily frowned.
The number of calls to her cannot be said to be rare, but if it is nothing important, she usually won't call.
The three lieutenants under her performed very well and were able to handle many things.
However, the person who called this time was not her assistant officer.
The small Den Den Mushi drew an image of a woman with no expression on her face.
"Lily, I'm Misty."
During Gareth's time, there was a man who was once known as 'General Wind Chaser'. Along with her, the 'Soldier of Destiny' Sif surrendered.
These two people did not join the Scourge Pirates, but they also held important positions in the territory. Misty and Sif were responsible for patrolling and defense together, and they were rotated regularly to ensure that there would be no order problems in the territory.
Although there are pirates stationed in Storm City, the pirates do not participate in such matters. Sarge is very clear about this aspect.
They are responsible for handling all public security issues.
"A merchant brought a group of slaves here and planned to sell them here. Is it allowed to sell slaves here?"
"How is that possible? Wait a minute."
Lily was about to say no but then she remembered that there seemed to be no rules in this regard, so she looked at Sage.
Sag seemed to have talked about slaves before. In short, they have no value. Being a laborer is much more valuable than being a slave.
"Wait."
Sager was also stunned, "Selling slaves here?"
The slave trade in the New World was an unimaginable path.
Sage never stipulated whether slave trade was allowed or not, because he felt it was unnecessary, because the people here had no human rights.
There are too few member states in the New World, so few that they can be almost ignored. The current situation in this sea area is that most of them cannot afford to pay the Heavenly Gold, and a few are unwilling to pay the Heavenly Gold.
They are pirates, and this is their base camp. It is worse than the non-member countries. The non-member countries have no human rights, and they don't even know whether they can survive.
What slaves are being sold here?
To put it bluntly, anyone here, no matter what their status or position, will become a slave once they are brought into the sphere of influence of the World Government.
And
"Where the hell did he get these slaves?" Sarge raised his eyebrows. "Could he have gotten them from a place I haven't conquered yet?"
The New World is so big, no one would come here from far away to sell people, so they can only go to nearby places. No one dares to go to the place where he has planted a flag, but there are still many places where he has not planted a flag yet.
But that is the area defined by Sag, and it will be conquered sooner or later.
Sager said viciously:
"You took my people and sold them back to me. Not only did you make money from me, but you also made money from this kind of money that has no production value at all? Who the hell is so bold, Misty, bring the people over here!"
He likes to spend money, but he doesn't spend meaningless money!
He can invest in starting a business and he is not stingy with money when buying raw materials, but that money is meaningful. The more he spends, the more he earns.
The people below Sagu were so fat and strong that they could even drink the soup while eating the meat.
But what is buying slaves?
The money spent on buying slaves has no production value!
And there is a great possibility that it is someone who originally belonged to him!
Soon, Misty came with a group of people, and they didn't even get into the palace, but stopped at the foot of the tall steps.
There were about thirty people. Except for the businessman in the front with a big belly and wearing a mink coat, the rest were all chained, with pale faces and thin bodies, and even their hair was a little yellow.
It's not the natural hair color, it's purely yellow hair caused by malnutrition.
A group of people were cowering timidly, looking around like mice, especially when they entered the palace. They were afraid and envious, and they didn't see anyone. They felt like they wanted to kneel down to them.
Until Sag appeared at the gate.
Pfft!
"Master!" When they saw the newcomers, the first one to kneel down was not the slaves, but the merchant in the front.
When he fell to his knees, the businessman shouted, "I am innocent!"
"Oh, huh? It's really strange that you come to the pirates' gate to complain about your injustice."
When the Sagers came out, they didn't even look closely at the faces of these people. They pointed at the merchant and sneered, "Are you under my rule?"
"He is not."
Misty, who was standing next to him and had brown hair and whiter skin than Lily, shook her head slightly and said:
"This guy said he came from the West Sea and had finally managed to get a group of slaves. He knew we were short of people, so he wanted to sell them."
"It's unfair, sir. I didn't break any of the rules of our pirate group!"
The merchant howled, "I just happened to run into a group of idiots who wanted to rob me in the West Sea while I was transporting goods. I thought it would be difficult to recruit workers recently, so I just brought them here. Of course, it would be even better if I could make a little money."
"Master, these people can be bought for a small amount of money. I will charge each person the lowest price of 50,000 Baileys, which is the lowest price for humans. With only 50,000 Baileys, you can buy them for free."
boom!
Gunshots rang out, and before the merchant could finish his words, a bloody hole appeared on his forehead. A bullet hit him in the forehead, causing him to fall face down.
Sage held up a flintlock rifle, smoke slowly coming out of its muzzle. He looked at the corpse and cursed, "You are definitely not a citizen of my rule!"
He gave money to the people under his rule voluntarily; no one would come forward to ask him for money.
Even those businessmen, when they met me, would like to try to please me by giving me free things. Although it was also for the purpose of gaining greater benefits, they did it in secret and were not so stupid as to engrave it on the surface and say it directly.
So stupid!
He was so stupid that even Sarge didn't want to spare him.
Such a guy can be killed or not. After all, Sager is just a pirate, not a moral role model.
But his words were so disgusting that they not only insulted the intelligence of the people he ruled, but also indirectly insulted him.
Lily next to him also found the information at this time and said:
"Sage, this man is called Kayo. He seems to be a pirate with a bounty, but it's not too high, no more than 10 million."
"He came here half a month ago and sold a batch of loot here. He walked around again, bought some trading goods and left. At that time, he bought things and had not paid taxes before leaving the sea, so he caused some commotion."
Because of this incident, Lily didn't have to spend much effort to find the information.
If you want to buy something and leave here, you still have to pay the tax. After all, no one knows who these things will be sold to.
It's okay for the local merchants, as their industries are here and cannot be taken away. No one can afford the cost of pretending to obey Sage, so they pay the taxes obediently.
However, non-nationals will be charged a uniform 70% value-added tax. After buying something that costs bailes, they will have to pay an additional bailes, and then it will have nothing to do with Sager anymore.
After all, Sag doesn't need channels. He himself is already the largest channel. He has no worries about selling his products. He only worries about insufficient production. It is already very kind of him not to impose 100% tax on outsiders.
Foreign merchants are allowed to come here and buy goods as long as it is to increase liquidity. Although not everything will be taxed, some specific commodities and purchases exceeding a certain amount will definitely be taxed.
"I think if the businessmen under me are so stupid, I'd think about investigating a batch of them."
Sager sighed, then looked at those skinny people, "Hey, where are you from?"
More than thirty people looked at each other, not even daring to look. After a long while, there was really no other way, so one person bravely stepped forward and said tremblingly:
"Master, we..."
"Call me Pirate Captain!"
"Yes, Pirate Captain, we are from the West Sea. Can you give us some food? We are so hungry."
Did it really come from the West Sea?
