Chapter 45 Did you mention the one million deposit before?
The other party was silent for a while, and then replied: "In two hours, I will go to the East Coast of 50GR and trade there."
Pittman saw Zhang Da also nodded and replied, "No problem."
Kacha, the phone is hung up.
Pittman said: "That was the sound that day. Look..."
"Very good, there is plenty of time. Let's send you to the naval base first." Zhang Da also waved his hand, " Tom , tie them all up."
These people are of no use now. When we meet later, I plan to pretend to be Pittman and let Tom make a mask based on Pittman's face.
The stand-in he made for himself a few days ago was so well done, so carving a wooden mask shouldn't be a problem, right?
"Can you still walk by yourselves? If not, I'll think of another way." Zhang Da also saw that they were seriously injured, and wondered whether he should use local materials to make some big bubbles to put them in, or let Tom make a cart.
But these words sounded like a threat to them. What other solutions could they come up with? What could they do with these burdens? Those who couldn't leave would have to die.
So one by one, they stood up miraculously, with no idea where they got the strength from. Even the one who was stabbed in the knee crawled up tremblingly, tore off his clothes to bandage himself to stop the bleeding, and then obediently stretched out his hands to let Tom tie them together with a rope.
Zhang Da also rode his own bubble bike and sat sideways on the side of the truck to prevent them from escaping.
Tom was holding the rope in front, and ten people followed one after another - Tom seemed to like this job very much, marching in step and swinging his arms, looking very happy.
In order to avoid causing too much noise, they chose to move forward along the edge of the town.
On the way, Zhang Da suddenly remembered something important: "By the way, did you mention before that you received a deposit of one million? Where did you put it? And your savings won't be used for the time being anyway, why not let me keep it for you first!"
A group of human traffickers looked at him strangely, asking, "Why can you talk about robbery so naturally? Are you the bad guy or are we the bad guys?"
A drop of cold sweat dripped down Pittman's forehead, and he said nervously, "All gone."
"Huh? Spend one million and all the savings in three days? Are you kidding me?" Zhang Da didn't believe it either. Our food expenses are not that high for the time being, okay?
"It's true." Pittman explained, "You may not know much about our industry. We could lose our lives every day, so we would rush to spend the money we have. We don't have any savings at all, and we were blackmailed yesterday. Now we really can't even take out a coin."
"Are you being blackmailed?" Zhang Da seemed to have grasped something.
"Yes, yesterday we went to a bar on GR No. 13 for a party. I think the name was Xia Qi's Rip-off Bar. We saw that it was a shady place and thought we might be able to rob the shady ones, and then..."
The more Pittman spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. The other nine people were also in tears. They were a gang of human traffickers, but they were actually being blackmailed. Who would believe this if they told others about it?
Zhang Da also nodded: "Is that so? Then there is nothing we can do."
Pittman added: "Just believe it."
Three seconds later:
"You believe it!?" *10
The ten people's eyes bulged out of their bulges in surprise. He actually believed such nonsense !
"Is there a problem?" Actually, Zhang Da was also unhappy, as if his business had been taken away by someone, but he couldn't go to the door to fight over this matter.
"No problem." The ten unlucky guys shook their heads together. It would be best if they believed it. They now just wanted to go to prison safely.
A large group of people entered GR No. 66 safely and then encountered a patrolling navy team.
After Zhang Daye explained the situation, the captain specially sent two soldiers to lead the way for them in order to avoid chaos.
"Sorry to trouble you again, Major Kuro." Zhang Da greeted him familiarly. This naval major who exuded a lazy aura left a deep impression on him.
Kuro looked Zhang Daye up and down, then looked at Tom carefully before he suddenly realized: "It's you, the guy who captured Sword. So, are you planning to become a bounty hunter?"
Zhang Da also denied it: "No, it's just that these human traffickers came to me."
"Human traffickers..." Major Kuro said in a complicated tone. He personally hated these people and the slave trade, but the navy, under the influence of the World Government, had always turned a blind eye to such things.
Take the patrol team for example. Once they recognize pirates, they will arrest them without hesitation. However, when they recognize human traffickers, they will basically turn a blind eye as long as the person does not commit the crime in front of them.
The world's nobles needed these people to provide slaves. Decades ago, the world government once cooperated with a human trafficker to buy suitable children from her to train high-level agents.
Even the Navy, at the instigation of the World Government, cooperated with this man to act out a play of dissuading the execution of members of the Giant Pirates, thereby gaining the friendship of the Giants. Only after that did Giants gradually join the Navy.
This person is Sister Carmela, the adoptive mother of the Four Emperors BIG MOM. She can be said to be the strongest human trafficker.
In short, various factors have led to the situation where almost no one cares about human traffickers as long as they don't go too far, and also resulted in their bounties generally not being too high.
This is probably the reason why Pittman and his gang, who look very professional, have a bounty that is not as high as that of a less powerful robber and murderer like Sword.
The decision of the World Government was not something that a small major like Kuro could influence, and he didn't want to worry about it. He just waved his hand and asked his assistant to confirm the identity of the prisoner and then exchange the bounty for Zhang Da.
"There are three people with bounties, one for 2 million, one for 800,000, and one for 600,000. In addition, there are 8 intact weapons, which are converted to 200,000 Baileys, a total of 3.6 million Baileys."
There were supposed to be ten weapons, but Zhang Da also broke a sword and Tom broke a bow, so there were only eight intact weapons left.
Zhang Da also nodded and confirmed the amount, took the money and left. There were only 360 10,000 Bailey bills in total tied up and put in a bag, not even worthy of a box .
Major Kuro tried to invite them to join the navy in a perfunctory manner, just like last time, and it felt like this might be standard procedure in exchange for bounties.
Zhang Da still used the same excuse as last time to shirk responsibility, saying that no one was sincere anyway.
The assistant's eyes twitched as he watched, feeling that the two men were inexplicably compatible. If this young man joined the navy, there might be another figure similar to Major Kuro.
This time, I don't need to be nervous like last time when I get the money. I let Tom hold me and sit in the bubble car. If you have the guts, come and rob me. If you dare to rob Altria's food money, you will see whether she will punish you or not.
"Next, let's go meet the seller. Let's go back and change our clothes first. After we deal with him, we can go shopping!" Zhang Da also smiled happily, "Oh, by the way, we can pay off the debt we owe to Old Bob first."
