Close Combat Mage

In the early morning of the next day, the miners who collapsed into the pits rushed back. At the same time, with the introduction of Tomi, all the citizens of the city of Kabulina met Soga, and reminded Tomi, the island There is n’t much food on the table, and if Tomei does n’t set off quickly and go out to bring food and daily necessities back, it is likely to starve to death.

After hearing the words of the representatives of the city residents, Suga smiled slightly, and signaled Dome to retreat, and then ... Suga said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone should know that the Angel of the Six Wings is my Suga's subordinate, so ... ... from now on, their task has become my task, and I have become the object of your loyalty, that is, from now on, I will be your city owner! "

After hearing Soga's words, everyone couldn't help but hesitate, and then ... the old man stood up again last time, respectfully saying, "Honor, we don't ask much now, as long as you can guarantee our lives, And guarantee our future life, then we will consider you the owner of the city. "

With a slight smile, Soga nodded: "Since I want to be your city owner, then I will of course take care of you. Now I want to know, what are your requirements as city dwellers?"

Hearing Soga's words, the old man hesitated for a moment, then said flatly; "Our requirements are not high and meet the great difficulties. We first need material security, and secondly ... we hope that you can effectively protect our security. , Will no longer be killed by pirate attacks, and finally ... I hope we will be treated the same as before! "

Frowning slightly, Soga said, "I believe that there is no problem with your first request. You have also seen that we now have 177 super-large Camus-class sailing ships and 50 cards. The Miao-class sailing ship is waiting for us to pick it up, so ... there is absolutely no problem in the transportation of materials. Even if you have ten times more people, we will never supply it! "

"Oh!" After hearing Soga's words, all the townspeople could not help cheering. As Soga said, the Lianyungang-like sailboat has blocked the sturdy outside the port. Such a powerful city owner is history. I just saw that the city owners who can have such a large fleet have never appeared in history, and none of them connected nearly half of them.

Looking at the cheering expressions of the city residents, Soga nodded with a smile, and then continued: "As for ensuring your safety, there is no need to worry about this. If you ca n’t even guarantee this, the city owner is simply Waste! Although I can't take concrete measures yet, I have the determination and the ability to do everything well! "

"Oh!" After hearing Soga's words, all the city residents cheered again. This is the case. Soga's words did not make everyone doubt. In this world, as long as you have money, you can do everything. Willing to spend money, naturally someone will come to help you defend the city!

After cheering for a long time, Soga slightly reached out his two hands, motioned for everyone to calm down, and then frowned, "I need to ask the third request now, because I don't know, what was your previous treatment like? "

Upon hearing Soga's words, the representative of the city resident, the old man, said, "In the past, our city owner stipulated that we could receive a fixed wage every day. In the past, our daily wage was 10 merchants. To support our daily lives, I don't know ... "

"10 quotients!" Suddenly, Suga stared at the surrounding townspeople in shock, what could the money do? If it is 10 merchants, apart from being able to buy food, daily necessities, clothing and other things, it is impossible to accumulate much money. You have to know that the seafarers on the Soga ship are paid 100 yuan a day for one month. Three or four thousand merchants.

Seeing Soga's stunned expression, all the townspeople can't help but think that Soga is too much, but in the current situation, there should be more and less. They can't help but let it go. Everyone knows, If Soga was n’t doing it, they would all starve to death collectively!

Between thoughts, the old man wiped the sweat on his forehead: "This ... Lord Sorga, if you think too much, I think ... if Bashang is one day, we can also maintain our lives, but if it is less, we on……"

"Stop!" Soga said with a bitter smile: "You misunderstood, I don't think you want too much. On the contrary, I think it is too little. If you only get so much a day, you seem to be able to barely maintain it. Are you full? "

"This ..." He looked at Soga hesitantly for a long time, and the old man said bitterly: "Indeed, as the city owner said, if 10 businessmen a day, we can barely sustain our lives, but ... this is our life, after all ... Miners are the humblest job in the world, and we don't ask too much. As long as we can maintain food and clothing and support the whole family, it is enough. "

Hearing the words of the old man, Soga was contemplative. He could immediately raise the miner's salary to the level of 100 merchants per day, but in this way, although everyone would be grateful, the gratitude would pass quickly. This is how people are. Once you accept something, you will get used to it after a long time, thinking that it is what they deserve, and forget to be grateful.

There is always only one way to make people remember these endorsements, that is, bonuses, monthly bonuses. For these extra wealth, everyone will naturally be grateful to Dade, and will be grateful once every month, of course ... … The amount of this bonus must be changed. Sometimes it ’s too outrageous, sometimes it ’s pitiful, so everyone always looks forward to the Lord of the City. This is the king!

Secondly, in addition to bonuses, there is welfare. This is an intangible reward, but it is more close to everyone's mind. There are various forms of welfare, which may be expensive or cheap, but whether it is more or less, it can be strong. The unity of all people, and let everyone automatically unite around Soga.

Between thoughts, Soga categorically said: "Well, is that 300 merchants a month? I have agreed to this request, but ... in addition to the 300 merchants per month, I will issue them based on each of your work performance. Bonuses, good work will be rewarded, poor work will be gone! "

"Ah!" The mouth widened in horror, the old man shivered, "Citylord! 300 merchants a month is indispensable. Without this money, we would really starve to death!"

With a bitter smile, Soga shook his head and said, "You still don't understand what I mean. Bonuses and wages are counted separately. Regardless of your work performance, wages will definitely be paid. 300 merchants per month is definitely a lot. Only bonuses change, more work is more, less work is less, not work is not! "

"Wow!" When Suga was heard, all the townspeople screamed in horror. This is equivalent to saying that in addition to the basic salary, everyone will get an extra income, and everyone believes that Suga will not hesitate. Hey, he doesn't need to set up this bonus at all, otherwise, if it is set up, but he won't pay it, he will just rock himself in the foot!

Looking at everyone in horror, Soga continued with a smile: "In order to let everyone work at ease, everyone will have a share of welfare income every month, maybe a bag of rice, a basket of vegetables, or It's a piece of cloth. In short ... I will try my best to use welfare to make everyone feel comfortable, but I hope everyone pays attention to how much welfare is also linked to everyone's hard work! Again, more work, Don't do less, don't do anything! "

Hearing Soga ’s three major policies, all the city residents cheered and changed to the new city owners. They not only retained the basic salary of ten businessmen, but also an unknown amount of bonuses, as well as benefits. This kind of treatment has been heard before. Never heard of it.

Looking at everyone's excited expression, Soga continued: "And I promise, as long as you work in our city for 30 years, then even if you do not work in the future, you will receive a total of 30 years of salary in the company. Money, and ... your clothes, food, housing, and transportation for the rest of your life, our city is all responsible for taking care of it so that everyone can spend the old age in peace! "

In the face of Soga ’s earth-shattering proposal, everyone couldn't help but pause, no one talked, just watching Soga dumbly, too many benefits, so that everyone has no idea how to express it.

Seeing everyone's horrified expressions, Soga could not help but secretly, in fact, in such a large city, Soga's party alone could not be exhausted. The key is to build it by everyone. Soga and others don't have time to stay here, they will continue to explore great business roads.

There is no absolute loyalty in this world. The so-called loyalty is because the bargaining chip is too low, so ... if you want to be truly loyal, you must tie everyone's interests with Soga's interests. Besides, there is no other way, interest is always the best bond!

Unloaded all the cargo from the ship. Knowing the situation here, the 177 sailing ships were loaded with food, clothing, daily necessities and other things. After all ... transporting other things, it is not sold here .

However, Soga has not directly distributed it to everyone for free. In Soga's mind, it is impossible to obtain tasks and things in this world for free. Whatever you want to get, you must pay for it, even if it ’s feelings.

Therefore, Soga moved food, clothing, and daily necessities into a renovated warehouse, fully filled hundreds of warehouses, and then selected some sailors with trading experience from the ship to temporarily serve as exchanges. boss.

Of course, for the time being, the city dwellers have no money, but Soga paid a one-time settlement fee of 1,000 merchants per person as a gift for everyone. At the same time, I also thank everyone for their willingness to support him as the city's owner. This sum was consumed by 14 million yuan. The money needed to run a city well is very exaggerated!

Most people only see how much Soga earned, but in fact, the monthly salary of more than 20,000 crew members on 177 ships has reached nearly 100 million, which is the main reason why no one dares to form such a large fleet. .

But then, Soga didn't waste much time here, and parted ways with Xiang Yun Roger again. He drove the Soga speedboat alone, transporting a batch of precious metals to the Thunder Pirates, and by the way to the mercenary associations in nearby cities. Hundreds of protection missions were issued in succession, and the protection targets were all under construction-Soga City!

With the release of hundreds of protection tasks, another 100 million merchants went out. Although this was only a small sum for Soga, Soga felt the difficulty of the task. Although he now has eight trillion, he must know Every month, the part that needs to be paid is 100 million ship staff, 100 million city residents salary bonus benefits, 100 million mercenary regiment costs, and 10 billion city tax guarantee. Once seated in the city of Suga City On the throne, he must hand over the 10 billion tax guarantee to Shangluo Affairs Office every month, and after the transaction occurs, the tax will continue to increase, reaching a maximum of 100 billion a month!

Although Soga has a lot of money, but the money is limited. Take gemstones as an example. After two more ships are shipped, it will be impossible for him to pull gemstones for a short time. For a long time, he did not It may be possible to make more money from gems, but these consumptions still have to be spent as usual, and they will spend more!

With the help of Suo speed boat, Souga quickly rushed back to the Thunder Thieves headquarters and unloaded the steel on the ship. Although this was far from the demand of the Thunder Pirates, it was enough to exchange a batch of agate. You know, although the speedboat is fast, but the cargo is very small, almost negligible, relying on Soga, Mia, and Nico's thirty space rings to carry cargo.

After handing in the steel, Soga filled the agate on the Pirate Island, found a port and dumped it. Then he turned the bow and drove directly to Daufi, filled with gems, and hurried again in the direction of Soga City. Selling gems along the way, Soga's total assets finally broke the ten trillion mark and reached a terror height of 11.2 trillion!

However, Soga was not satisfied, and returned to Soga City, which was the original city of Kabulina. Soga was once again full of precious metals, and then split the other fleet into two, one Led by Xiang Yun Roger and Nikomiya, a team led by Tome and its partners was responsible for delivering supplies to Soga City. One set off immediately and went to the shipyard to collect the remaining 50 Camus-class sailing ships. Then rushed directly to Thunder Pirate Island and went there to sell free agate.

Under the leadership of Xiang Yun, Roger, Nicole, and Mia, the fleet bypassed the Terror Triangle, received 50 Camus-class sailing ships, increased the number of fleet ships to 120, and went straight to the pirates. A month later, when they arrived at the Pirate Island, Soga had already used the speed to get all the steel needed by the Thunder Pirates!

The female pirate leader did not say anything, and let Xiang Yun and others leave with 120 ships of agate. At the same time, Soga had already sailed back to Soga with a speedboat and started infrastructure construction. At this moment ... Soga ’s general Funds reached 15 trillion!

When I returned to Soga again, this place was completely different. As soon as I arrived near the pier, Soga frowned, and the debris floating on the beach, especially the beach stained with blood, told Soga that something must have happened recently. Abnormally brutal fighting!

Between thoughts, Soga approached the pier, walked down from the boat, and ordered the staff on the pier to lift his speedboat to the shore. He cannot afford to lose this valuable speedboat. This is an irreproducible guy. Shipbuilding materials, but Soga outside the Great Commercial Road, bought a whole city short before gathered.

Into the city of Soga, in the deserted streets of the past, there are already shaking figures everywhere, but ... these guys are all wearing battle armor, although the armor is relatively tattered, but they are obviously mercenaries.

Frowning slightly, Soga didn't want these hooligan mercenaries everywhere in his city. This hurts the image of the city too much, but since it is necessary to use mercenaries to help the defense, naturally it is inevitable. See Come ... he still needs to build his own armed forces!

Under the scrutiny, a group of mercenaries led by a red-faced man came face to face from the opposite side. From the badge on the chest of the red-faced man, this should be the head of a mercenary regiment!

Sure enough, after successfully blocking Soga, the other party reported his identity. The red-faced man and the hundredth person behind him were actually employed with Soga to protect the mercenaries of Soga. Regimental leader.

Without giving Soga a chance to speak, the other party said directly: "Soga Lord, your first mission has expired. As for the next month's guard mission, I think ... we can't take it unless you can Double the funding and double the garrison. Otherwise, we would not accept such a task! "

Slightly frowned, looking at the head of the mercenary regiment who was united as one, Soga knew that these guys were holding themselves. Now, if you do n’t add money to them, Soga will be lost. All defensive forces, then everything is over.

No one came before because it was ruined and useless here, let alone pirates, and even merchants would not come to the dead port, but now it is different. Soga has officially become the city owner here, which signifies that Soga City has been established again, so that whether it is a merchant or a pirate, it will be targeted again.

Although, like last time, hundreds of thousands of pirates attacked in a short period of time is unlikely to happen. After all ... without enough profit, it is impossible for everyone to come together, but even a wavelet-by-wavelet pirate, Not by one or two people can resist, for now, Soga must rely on the help of the mercenary regiment!

Looking at the hundreds of mercenary regiments on the opposite side, Soga felt dark and depressed. He knew that the other party wanted more money but did not want to bear so much burden, so ... greedily demanded twice It ’s shameless to count the capital and double the troop strength!

Taking a deep breath, Suga reluctantly suppressed his unhappiness. To this day, he still needs the help of these guys and can't offend them, but sooner or later, he will not look at their faces again.

Between thoughts, Soga said coldly: "Well, I double your commission, and then I will hire another 100 mercenaries to help you defend, I hope you will protect my Soga city!"

"Hey ..." Upon hearing Soga's words, all the mercenary regiments could not help laughing greedily. With Soga's words, their wages were doubled, and the tasks they needed to take were reduced by half. !!

Looking at these greedy smiley faces, Soga turned and left without saying a word. Now ... let them have fun first. Soga has nothing else, just rich, or he will build his own armed forces soon. By that time ... he should never have to look at anyone, and never be jeered by anyone!
