Pirate Company.

Chapter 204 Public Opinion Guidance
"The pirate is coming, run away."

Caesar returned to Pergamon with thousands of pirates and captives. When their fleet appeared on the coast, it caused a burst of panic among the local residents.

Because, this fleet that suddenly appeared on the coast has many ships flying the pirate flag, and they are sailing in the fleet impressively.The local residents thought that another pirate targeted them for looting.

The pirates in the central sea are almost overrun. Every resident living along the coast of the central sea has more or less suffered from the scourge of pirates, but no one has ever thought of going to sea to exterminate the pirates.Because, the Gladiator Empire had fought against the Central Sea Antoli Pirates before, and the final result was that Rhodes Island was lost.

Even the powerful gladiator empire is no match for the pirates. Naturally, no one dares to touch the pirate's beard anymore. They can only silently endure the harassment of the pirates, praying that they will not be the next to die in the sea. The person under the thief's butcher's knife.

Due to the inability of the Gladiator Empire to exterminate the pirates, the residents living along the coast of the Central Sea, the pirates have become their demons.It's no wonder that just seeing the approach of the pirate fleet will cause them great panic.

"It's not pirates, it's Lord Caesar who's back."

"Look, the pirate has become a prisoner of Lord Caesar."

When the fleet approached, the residents who saw the situation on board clearly let out deafening cheers immediately, welcoming Caesar's triumphant return.

Caesar's act of recruiting soldiers to exterminate the pirates had already been seen by the public, but they just didn't expect that Caesar would come back not long after.Unlike when he set off, this time, his fleet was full of pirate captives.

Caesar's actions undoubtedly greatly increased the morale of the local residents, and they had a feeling in their hearts that in the near future, perhaps they would no longer live under the shadow of pirates' fear.

Finally someone defeated the mighty pirate on the sea.

"Lord Caesar, long live."

When Caesar's fleet led a long string of pirates off the ship, they found many familiar faces among the pirates. These pirates were the same pirates who had been harassing them. The pirate became Caesar's captive, and the residents of Pergamon once again let out deafening cheers from the bottom of their hearts.

This time, what came out of their mouths was more praise for Caesar.

"This group of pirates will receive the punishment they deserve. I guarantee that every one of them will be crucified on a shameful cross."

Responding to the cheers of the people of Pergamon, Caesar marched around the street with the captive pirates under his command, and then rushed directly to the residence of the judge.

He learned that the Grand Judge of the Gladiator Empire happened to be here, and the Grand Judge was the only official of the Gladiator Empire who had the right to impose the death penalty in the provinces of the Gladiator Empire.

A group of pirates who have been in trouble for a long time can only show the prestige of the Gladiator Empire when they are judged by the laws of the Gladiator Empire.

The gladiator empire shrouded in the shadow of pirates urgently needs a public execution of pirates.

"Your reputation will surely spread throughout every inch of the Gladiator Empire."

Seeing Caesar's disappearing back, the residents living in Pergamum couldn't wait to disperse, and they wanted to share everything in front of them with everyone they knew.

I believe that it won't be long before the battle between Caesar and the pirates will soon spread throughout the gladiator empire.As a result, Caesar's reputation in the hearts of ordinary people is bound to soar.

"Is there no one following behind?" After leaving the street, Caesar, who maintained the demeanor of a superior, looked back from time to time to see if there was anyone following behind him. After confirming that there was no one, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. The whole person is like a discouraged ball, and immediately changed his face, looking at Zhou Yixian beside him like a money-grubber, and said: "About the pirate's property, are you sure you haven't calculated it wrong? It’s missing, why don’t we double-check it again?”

"I reiterate again, the property of the pirate's treasure land is as much as you see in your eyes, and there is absolutely no mistake." Zhou Yixian didn't know how many times he was harassed by Caesar all the way, mercilessly Rejecting the other party's request, he said with a serious face: "You have to have full trust in your partner. Besides, this fund will be used as the start-up fund of our plan. No one will use it indiscriminately. I can Guaranteed by your own character."

"It's okay to talk about other things. When it comes to money, you have character." Listening to Zhou Xian's mention of using character as a guarantee, Caesar had no choice but to give up the request to check the property, and secretly slandered what Zhou Xian said. reliability.

"You don't seem too happy about it. Let's divide the property and go back to each house." Zhou Yixian seemed to feel that Caesar was questioning his character in his heart, and said deliberately: "Anyway, there is a large sum of money. Money is enough for us to spend the rest of our lives happily, so why ask for more."

"I was wrong, can't I be wrong?" Seeing that Zhou Yixian was about to give up the pick, Caesar resolutely admitted, and kept begging for mercy, and said, "What would I do without you? Others don't know your character, don't you?" I don’t know yet, don’t check again, it’s as much as you say.”

"This is what you said, don't go back on your word." Zhou Yixian said.

"I will never go back on my word. If I go back on my word, I'll be a puppy." Caesar raised his palm, as if swearing again and again that he would never bring up the previous incident again. Zhou Yixian finally let Caesar go.

Caesar, who was poor and scared, every penny of property was very important to him.If anyone wants to take away his wealth from him, he will fight bravely like a little hen protecting his cubs.However, in front of Zhou Yixian, he lost his temper completely.

Caesar also knew that it was basically impossible to extract a single word from Zhou Yixian's pocket.Who is this person in front of me, who often chanted a mantra, every penny is like my relatives, and the loss of every penny will make me as painful as losing a loved one.

A money-greedy person meets someone who is more money-greedy than himself, what can he do.What's more, if because of a small matter, Zhou Yixian really quit his job, Caesar would lose more than he gained.

Wanting to seize the position of the dictator of the Gladiator Empire, he, who has no one under his command, can't get away from Zhou Xian's support behind him.

Seeing that Caesar had completely given up the idea of ​​taking money from his own pocket, Zhou Yixian finally felt happy, and gave Caesar a satisfied look with his childish eyes, as if saying:
There should be errand fees for running errands. I ran all the way from the Eternal City to the Hidden Island to rescue you. Why don’t you take more as a thank you? It makes sense for me to change this matter to any corner of the world.

Come on, it's my fault to covet Mo's common wealth without permission.

Tired of Caesar, he didn't want to entangle too much with Zhou Yixian on the issue of the pirate's property, so he changed the subject and said, "Why didn't we execute the pirate on the spot, why did we have to bring it back to Pergamon for public execution. In doing so, Doesn’t it seem a little redundant, anyway, the pirates have to be executed, so why bother.”

"I know, I heard him say it, it seems to be some kind of public opinion guidance." Along the way, Xingye was like a curious baby who knew nothing, and finally encountered a topic that he could participate in. He took the initiative to grab the white and said: "Whoever guides the direction of public opinion will be able to take the initiative."

"Guidance of public opinion?" Caesar whispered the inexplicable words he heard in his mouth. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of the reason, so he gave up and said, "I don't understand it very well, you can just figure it out."

The novel viewpoints that pop up in Zhou Xian's mind from time to time have been fully proved, so Caesar didn't pay too much attention to it. Another novel method in Zhou Xian's mind.

Because he knows that as long as he does it according to his ideas, he can always achieve unexpected results.

"You can use this method as a method to deceive people like your speech, and sometimes it is even more effective." Seeing Caesar's puzzled look, Zhou Yixian took the initiative to briefly explain the role of public opinion.

"Does public opinion really have such a terrifying effect?" From the simple description of public opinion on Monday, Caesar had a terrifying perception, thought about it secretly, and sighed wishing to surrender: "I really don't know, you Why are there so many novel ideas in my mind? If you control it properly, even the will of the country can be deflected. Fortunately, you are not my opponent, otherwise it would be almost impossible for me to realize my inner ambition. God."

Caesar is still very talented in terms of right and wrong, and he can understand some things at a glance.In the simple message given by Zhou Yixian, he basically grasped the reason why the other party wanted to disclose the purpose of the tactile pirate.

Zhou Yixian wanted to use the pirates in his hands to let the people of the Gladiator Empire understand a truth through some reasonable guidance of public opinion. It is not impossible to eliminate the cruel and difficult pirates.He really wanted to use a public execution of the pirates to build up the confidence of the Gladiator Empire in destroying the pirates.

When the Gladiator Empire wipes out the domestic rebel army and frees up its hands, it is bound to find a way to destroy the Antori Pirates, which is the root cause of the cholera in the Gladiator Empire.

Ordinary people in the Gladiator Empire have long hated the Antoli Pirates. It is because of their troubles that they can't get enough to eat now.

Cutting off people's food and clothing, the hatred is as deep as the sea.

The Antoli Pirates, who had angered the entire Gladiator Empire, will surely be hit by the most violent storm of anger from the terrifying state machine of the Red Earth Continent.

With the merits of exterminating the pirates in front of us and a little reasonable guidance of public opinion, if the Senate wants to support Caesar, I am afraid that ordinary people will not agree.

Once the Gladiator Empire targets the Antoli Pirates, the pace of Caesar's rise will be unstoppable.
