People in the heavens are as rich as the enemies of the country
Chapter 14 He is cupping me!
"Warrant Officer, are you kidding me?"
Tang Sen said this, but there was no smile on his face: "You are the Royal Navy, and you are even an officer. Do you know what you are talking about?"
Warrant Officer Tom's face paled. To be honest, he regretted saying it, and he didn't know why he couldn't suppress it.
Perhaps the gap was too big. In addition, I had said that I was thinking about something before, and my attempt to get Mr. Tang to take the initiative to ask questions and then slowly reveal my thoughts failed because Mr. Tang simply refused to answer. This led me to be impulsive in order to avoid missing the opportunity. .
But there was no room to look back at this time. Warrant Officer Tom plucked up the courage and said: "Although I have only known Mr. Tang for a short time, I have been impressed by Mr. Tang. I would rather follow Mr. Tang than become a navy man." .”
"I must be impressed by the money." Naturally, Tang Sen did not say this. He just softened his expression slightly and said, "Mr. Tom, this is not a casual matter. You are Colonel Norrington." I’m afraid Colonel Norrington won’t be too happy if the person sent to protect me resigns.”
Hearing that Tang Sen's title was changed from Warrant Officer to Mr., Warrant Officer Tom was delighted and said quickly: "I will submit my resignation seriously. I am just a Warrant Officer. I believe Colonel Norrington won't care too much."
Tang Sen didn't take it seriously, changed the subject, and said, "So, what can you bring me? Mr. Tom."
"I -" Warrant Officer Tom was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
"I mean, after losing his status as a Navy Warrant Officer, what does Mr. Tom have left?" Townsend did not wait for Warrant Officer Tom's answer and said calmly: "Is it the superb marksmanship or the experience of sailing the sea? To be honest, Tom Sir, you have to admit that these things are not scarce in Port Royal, and can even be said to be everywhere."
Warrant Officer Tom was speechless.
He did not expect that Mr. Tang, who usually seemed kind and friendly, would speak so directly and deeply.
"Mr. Tang." Warrant Officer Tom tried hard to meet Tang Sen's sharp eyes. He was frantically exploring his own value to be favored by this noble man. Finally, he said loudly: "I think my value is loyalty. I take the surname Lawrence." I swear that I will be loyal to Mr. Tang for the rest of my life."
"Mr. Tom." Townsend interrupted Warrant Officer Tom's oath and said: "Loyalty is a valuable quality, but I'm afraid it's not worth trusting just saying it with your mouth. Especially, Mr. Tom has sworn loyalty to the Royal Family of England. of the Royal Navy.”
"."
Such words completely drained the color from Warrant Officer Tom's face.
He lowered his head again, completely losing the courage to look directly into Tang Sen's eyes. Indeed, the loyalty he said was useless. No one would believe the oath of a navy who wanted to change his family. Moreover, without his identity as a navy, he could not bring anything Their role is not even comparable to that of senior sailors.
"I understand, Mr. Tang." Warrant Officer Tom's voice suddenly became low and hoarse: "I was the one who was rude, please Mr. Tang not to tell this matter."
"Raise your head, Mr. Tom." Tang Sen's voice once again interrupted Warrant Officer Tom's words. The dissatisfaction in his tone made Warrant Officer Tom jump. He quickly raised his head and looked away, not meeting Tang Sen's eyes.
"I think you misunderstood, Mr. Tom." Tang Sen took two steps closer and said, "I am very happy that Mr. Tom is willing to follow me. I mean, loyalty needs to be proven by facts, and Mr. Tom is willing to prove it for me. Your loyalty?"
"Yes!" Warrant Officer Tom was completely unable to guess what the Eastern man in front of him was thinking. He just instinctively stood up straight and answered loudly.
"Very good." Tang Sen nodded with satisfaction: "In the East, there is a very interesting form called the Certificate of Voting."
"Go ahead and get back to your camp. I need to see ten Navy-issue flintlock muskets before dark."
"This is a felony," Warrant Officer Tom hesitated.
"No, this is a test." Tang Sen's expression changed and he scolded:
"Loyalty has always been an exclusive quality. Warrant Officer Tom doesn't think that after swearing loyalty to me, he can also be loyal to the Royal Family of England at the same time, right?"
"I"
Seeing Warrant Officer Tom's hesitation, Tang Sen let out a long sigh: "Warrant Officer Tom, I think you have a preliminary understanding of me. In my opinion, people's choices are very important, whether in games or in life."
"You can choose to give up, forget about our conversation, and continue to be your naval officer."
"Of course, you can also choose to bravely accept the test. As long as you complete it, you will receive a salary of ten gold coins a day and the opportunity to obtain huge wealth."
"." Warrant Officer Tom twitched his brows: "Ten a day?"
That’s 300 coins a month, 3,600 coins a year, close to 4,000 pounds? !
No powerful Earl can make so much money in a year!
"This is just the basic salary." Tang Sen said calmly: "For Warrant Officer Tom, you don't think it's too little, right?"
"No less. No. Too much!"
The paleness on Warrant Officer Tom's face visibly faded, and his eyes were bright and high-spirited.
Not to mention ten flintlock muskets, I am afraid that Townsend wants Mr. Norrington's underwear at this time, and he has the courage to steal them.
"It is my greatest luck that a person like me can be favored by Mr. Tang. Mr. Tang, you are really a good person."
"Even if it costs me my life, I will prove my loyalty to Mr. Tang!"
"Then go." Tang Sen waved his hand and looked at Warrant Officer Tom running down the mountain impatiently with a smile on his face.
It went very smoothly, even smoother than expected.
Induction, belittling, comforting, coupled with heavy profits, a combination of punches, directly made Warrant Officer Tom dizzy, coupled with the certificate of surrender for stealing ordnance, Tang Sen no longer had to worry about this person escaping from his control.
It's a pity that Warrant Officer Tom is not a modern person, otherwise he would have frowned and shouted: "No! You are in CPUPUA!"
"Sorry, I'm not a good person." Tang Sen withdrew his gaze and walked towards the governor's residence.
He has no psychological burden at all about using or even playing tricks on the other party. After all, although money is just a number to him, it is real to people of this era. This transaction is not a loss for Warrant Officer Tom.
As for me, a dying person, I am not qualified to be a moral saint. All I can do is try my best to win life.
