To everyone's surprise, a child of eight or nine years old was not worse than a thirty-year-old man in momentum.
Raine walked towards Tik, "So you want to take those people to die just because you are unwilling? Do you think every captain who would buy you will give you freedom? There are many more of your clans who are living like hogs on some ship! There are more of your clans waiting to be bought and taken away to do free labor for the rest of their lives!"
"For the anger and hatred in your heart, you are going to take those twenty mutants to their deaths? To bury the only hope of saving your people? Tik, how dare you be a teacher? You're just a rat!"
The room was silent for a moment, and even the angry Tik became speechless.
Raine stared at Tik.
"I will not stop you if you want to die! I just want to ask you three questions."
"Can these twenty of you shake the Black Hell?"
"If you die, will your Sea God clans have a second chance?"
"Can you change anything even if you die in battle?"
"Decide yourselves after thinking it over." After saying that, Raine returned to his seat and looked at Tik indifferently.
In fact, Raine was also nervous.
That was 10,000 pearls! He will have a heavy loss if they go. Raine did not know whether his words would keep the 10000 pearls.
Tik slowly raised his head, staring at Raine long time. Then he looked at Fancy and the others. After a long time, he finally sighed, "Your words scolded me to wake up. Fancy is right. I have too underestimated you. You are a remarkable captain. Sorry, I was too reckless just now."
Raine also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his 10,000 pearls were saved.
Actually, there was another reason for Tik to leave.
Fancy just said Raine is the captain but did not say Raine's true identity. Although this group of people was grateful to Raine, a captain less than 10 years old made people feel unreliable more or less.
But Raine's words proved that his mind was not a child.
"You have a farther vision than me. Those who have a long vision must have greater ambition. Captain, we are willing to follow you." Tik bowed to Raine slightly.
Raine nodded in satisfaction, "Go back and rest. We have a long road ahead."
........................
The next day, Raine took a group of people to buy the property.
At the sales office, Raine had an eye on an area of 1800 square meters that had just been developed.
This area was built for ordinary home buyers. The houses were small. The smallest was five or six square meters, the largest was only a dozen square meters. And the price was not high, 45 pearls a square meter.
The total selling price of this area was 81,000 pearls, which was more than Raine could afford. But Raine had been hesitant to give up this place. Mainly for two reasons.
Firstly, this area was relatively independent. It was surrounded by rocks, forming an island within an island. This area is very suitable as a base that their ship can even drive in!
Secondly, there were many rocky hills behind the area, about 1200 square meters.
These rocks were forbidden to be developed by the government. Although the area cannot be used to build houses, they can be planted, farmed, and stacked with goods!
So the overall area of this piece was 3,000 square meters in fact.
And these rocky hills were not counted in the total area, which means that if he would buy this place, it is equal to a gift of 1200 square meters.
"Why are you guys keep asking about the overall situation of this area? I think it is meaningless. Which one do you in the world want to buy?" The person in charge of the sales office was already a little impatient. These guys came over and named him to serve, but the result he had been asking questions by this little kid. The adults behind him did not say a word, which was fucking with him!
Even the surrounding employees were a little unbearable.
"Guys, It is not a place for sightseeing and tourism if you would not buy."
"That's right, it can't be that you are spies sent by other companies?"
"Look at your outfits, want to buy the whole housing area? If you would not buy it, then leave quickly and don't waste our time here. This new housing area is not opened until three days later. So don't ask!"
Raine shook his head. The place was chosen, just leave the bargaining to the crew. It's not his strong point, "Avril, Terry, you guys talk to him."
Arsan, Onebear, and Twobear casually put down the canvas bags behind them. Once heard the clatter, the surrounding people can not help but be shocked.
In this bag, it can't all be... pearls?! How many pearls is that?
Avril came to the point, "How much is the minimum?"
The manager couldn't keep his eyes off the three bags. Gulped, his attitude improved at once, "What? Where?"
"Of course the whole area we asked for a long time. "
"The whole... everyone, Let's talk in the house, OK? Are you thirsty? I have prepared tea for you all."
"We are not thirsty, say it straight. How much is the minimum? If it is still according to the price you said, we will go. If you have any internal prices and discount prices, give us a count in. We would have a spot deal if the price is suitable." Avril said, "We do not have much time. Hurry up and offer."
The people around took a deep breath of cold air at the same time.
Toussaint owned five Spanish galleons, but he only had a few small tens of thousands of pearls in fact. It would take 80,000 pearls to buy the whole housing area. This amount was something that not many people can take out at once even in the whole of Bankra Island.
Unexpectedly, these few unimpressive guys wanted to buy it all at once.
This feeling is just like a sudden person running into the sales office and saying: I want to buy the whole property.
The employee who handed over the water shook so much that the water spilled. Seeing this, the manager took over the water in a hurry but found his hand shaking even more.
"Drink water first. I'll go call our boss."
Not long after, a man came down from the inner office.
"Please come inside, let's sit down and have a good talk."
Sitting down and talking meant they can cut the price. In that case, Raine didn't have to worry about it.
After a battle of wits, they ended up with a deal of 72,500 pearls. It was about a 10% discount. House bargaining was a lot harder than for slaves. This discount was already rare.
After all, the cost of building a house was not high, but the cost of land was.
With the land permanent use certificate in hand, Raine and the others returned to the boat and drove it from the inland river to their base.
Looking at this large area, Raine was quite satisfied.
"Everyone, here is the main base of our Dad Bounty Corps. Also your home!"
To everyone's surprise, a child of eight or nine years old was not worse than a thirty-year-old man in momentum.
Raine walked towards Tik, "So you want to take those people to die just because you are unwilling? Do you think every captain who would buy you will give you freedom?
