Black sails

Chapter 108 CVII. Taking the lead

The thawing room was filled with smoke. Everyone was a desperado wandering on the edge of life and death, and no one was afraid of death.

There is no more dangerous feast than this.

There was only tea and wine on the table, as well as a bright and sharp guy, who was not here to invite Li Site to dinner.

"Captain Li Site is so majestic. He doesn't take us seriously at all."

The president of the Skull and Bones Society is not very tall.

His hair was all tied into braids, and his face was painted with red war lines. Perhaps due to long-term exposure to the hallucinogen plantation, his expression was slightly depressed, and his eyes were extremely baggy.

But there is still a cold blood in his eyes that is indifferent to life and death.

"Didn't you tell Li Site these four words: don't wait when it's too late?"

He asked the person who had gone to report the news before.

But how dare the reporting guy say no? In this strict killing array, the room is full of the smell of gunpowder, and if it explodes at a moment's notice, anyone can kill themselves.

"I told you not to wait until late, and I also said it would be eight o'clock tonight, but..."

The messenger boy lied.

"Yeah, I hope so..."

President Skull and Bones glanced at the messenger.

He was so frightened that he couldn't stand straight and his legs were trembling. These hallucinogen dealers are the most terrifying and have all kinds of tricks.

Li Site had already silenced the entire table for two minutes.

"Since Li Site won't come and won't give face to all my colleagues, there's nothing to say. We'll just start fighting."

Only one of them came from the Twin Pirates. They were twins, and they looked the same, but the elder brother had a scar on his face that looked like a tiger scratching him, making him easy to recognize.

"Don't worry, this is not a trivial matter and deserves careful discussion. There is no need to ruin the peace just for a few minutes."

Kili said coldly.

"Since that's what you want, then I'll give you face and wait another three minutes. If..."

The president of the Skull and Bones Society hasn't finished speaking yet.

A man opened the curtain of the thawing room and walked in.

It was Li Site.

Followed by Fen and Morrison.

Hundreds of dangerous glances that could make even wild beasts retreat passed through and looked at the three of them.

But the three of them have been here for so long, what kind of battles have they not seen?

As soon as Li Site arrived, the deputy and second-in-command standing around him had been talking to each other quite noisily before. As soon as he came in, there was an instant silence.

It was eerily quiet.

Li Site glanced at the people sitting at the table, the things on the table, and the vacant main seat. Good guy, are you really putting yourself on the barbecue this time?

"Hey, what's going on? What's going on? You guys want me to be your big brother."

Li Site was not afraid at all. The generals of the Yalan Military Police were all well organized themselves, and these things were not enough to look at.

Everyone present was furious, and some wanted to chop Li Site directly.

But the aura of the disfigured face standing behind him was too terrifying.

"Where is the meaning of worship? Aren't all the people in Tianguogang already named Li? If you sit in this position, everyone... will be convinced."

The leader of the Broken Ice Pirates who came to collect the second protection fee had a yin and yang connotation. During Li Site's expansion, he was the one who had the most devoured plates. How could he swallow this sigh of relief?

"Fuck it, since everyone has chosen me to be the boss, I have nothing to say."

Li Site calmly sat down on the main seat, picked up a dagger on the table and played with it.

Although Li Site acted too calmly, the atmosphere was actually very subtle. Tea was served in front of all seats except the main seat. The meaning was obvious.

Everyone present was holding fire in their stomachs. The scenario that many people expected was that no one needed to give in. After all, the captain’s majesty could not be provoked, and Black Sail was indeed difficult to deal with. Let’s discuss it together and raise the price. Everyone is happy.

But Li Site wanted to show off his power as soon as he entered the door.

The situation has changed. Li Site seems to be planning to fight to the end. He will not have an easy time tonight and will have to be popular.

"Now that the captain of Black Sail has arrived, it's time to get to the point of this time. Colleagues, it's obviously very difficult to cope with life just by hijacking ships. Let's talk about the management fees collected this month, so that so many people can survive. Captain, I have a judgment on the situation in Tianguo Port.”

The oldest person on the scene, who had been around Tianguo Port for the longest time, and who had a close relationship with the giants, was talking to a captain. He had turned gray on his temples, and now his son was in charge of the ship.

But what he said was most appropriate. His seniority on the road was higher than that of the Twins of the Skull and Bones Society.

Protection fees are indeed out of date. We are all "high-end people", so we have to call them management fees.

"I collected more than three thousand silver coins here."

"I collected more than two thousand from here."

Then they started reporting one by one.

Not only those sitting at the table, but also some of the standing pirate group's subordinates also had territory covered, but each of them was far different from Li Site.

You must know that Li Site's bill collection fee is far less than that of everyone present, less than one-third. It is purely charity, but the plate is too big and no one can compare.

Finally it was Li Site's turn.

All eyes were turned towards him, it was time to speak.

"Captain...is there something on your mind? Are you unwilling to say it? Or...are you afraid to say it?"

The oldest uncle asked Li Site.

Just when everyone thought Li Site was about to give in.

Li Site was silent for a while.

"I was away for three months this time. When I came back, I found almost two hundred golden dragons. You should indeed recognize me as your eldest brother."

There was a bang...

Li Site knocked over the teacup of the retired old captain with his finger and poured water all over him.

"what are you doing!"

Of course someone was angry.

"Who dares to move?"

Morrison took out a throwing knife, ready to skin people at any time.

"It's okay, it's okay..." The old captain suppressed his anger, "I came to you this time to ask you to raise the price. Everyone has the same price. Only by being friendly can you make money."

At this time, the anger of everyone present has been suppressed to the extreme. The uncles have lowered their posture. This is already an ultimatum. If you, Li Site, don't give you face, don't blame everyone for getting angry.

Li Site sneered twice.

"The purpose of my work is that everyone has food to eat, but you have to wait until I am full before it is your turn."

Li Site spread his hands and glanced at everyone on the table, not taking them seriously at all.

"Don't be too crazy. No one here is afraid of you. If you want to fight, fight. In one word, it will rise or not."

The leader of Skull and Bones has already put his hand on the axe.

"If you increase the price, although the plate will be smaller, the total revenue will be higher. If you insist on doing this, it will be difficult for us to handle."

A captain also issued an ultimatum.

"Is it difficult to do it? Then don't do it."

Li Site stood up and overturned the table. All the tea cups and wine bottles fell to the floor. The crackling sound continued in the thawing room, and all the fragile items were smashed to pieces.

Everyone at the table subconsciously stood up.

I don’t know where Li Site got the confidence to be so crazy.

"Then you are determined to go against everyone? Are you crazy, Li Site? Before midnight, you can kill everyone on your side, whether they are behind you or in your store, are you really Don’t be afraid of having your corpse exposed in the wilderness and blood splattered on the streets.”
