Daming One Piece

Chapter 219 Slave (Part [-])
The next day, early morning.

The ship is out of port.

After a day at sea, the ship began to sail east along the coastline.

The sun was scorching hot, and Wang Xin, who was weakened by the tropical sun, felt that the boat was a bit weird after going out to sea.

"Brother Xu, what kind of business are we doing?"

Once again, Wang Xin asked with doubts.

"You'll know when you're at work."

Xu Ercai chuckled and ignored him.

There's something weird about this boat!
While Wang Xin was muttering in his heart, a watchman shouted from above his head.

"A fishing boat is found directly ahead!"

It didn't seem like a big deal, but the next moment, Wang Xin heard what Sun Erye said.

"Sixth, tell the brothers to get the guys ready, the business is coming. After a while, just sink their boat and catch them alive! Injured is the same as dead, what's the point!"

what?
Wang Xin was surprised.He looked into the distance, and could vaguely see a small sloop.

What are they going to do?
However, despite the doubts in their hearts, Wang Xin and the others still obeyed the rules on the ship - they must obey the captain's orders!For the captain's order, you can disagree or ponder over it, but you must never object, delay, or question it.

Next, they watched helplessly as the huge hull of the "Jishun" collided with the small boat. Facing the sudden impact, the natives on board could only go into the sea. was smashed to pieces,
The three natives floating in the sea, in addition to being surprised, cursed aloud.Although Wang Xin couldn't understand what they were saying, he could tell that it was definitely not a good thing.

"Sail down! Do it!"

Xu Ercai, Shunzi and the others lowered the sails without even needing Second Master Sun's order, and then directly cast out the nets, catching the man out of the sea like a fish.

When the natives were caught, they were still cursing uncontrollably. Only now did Wang Xin and the others see the appearance of the natives clearly. They were not very old, they should be around 30 years old. They were thin and dark-skinned. The hair and eyeballs are also black, and it can be seen at a glance that he is not a bright person.

As soon as they were released from the net here, Xu Ercai pushed the man down on the deck like he was catching chickens, and clasped the man's arm behind his back. Maybe he used too much force, and the man immediately cried out. Get up, but don't know what he's talking about.Shunzi also moved their hands, but in the blink of an eye, the three natives were pushed down on the deck.

"Wang Xin, what are you still doing in a daze, tie people up with a rope!"

Seeing Wang Xin and the others standing aside in a daze like a log, Xu Ercai opened his eyes wide and shouted loudly.

"Why...why tie them up?"

Although they didn't understand why, Wang Xin, Wei An, and Li Youcai tied up the natives on the deck with ropes, and didn't dare to ask a question until they were tied up.

"What?"

Xu Ercai laughed.

"This is what we do!"

"What?"

Wang Xin opened his eyes wide and said.

"What business?"

"That's the deal!"

Xu Ercai shouted.

"Go, you send him to the bilge and Fugui to learn how to lock chains and lock people up."

When they got to the bilge, Wang Xin and the others realized that, unlike the cabins they lived in, the bilge was actually full of cells.After throwing the three captured natives into the prison, the dumbfounded Wei An murmured.

"This... this, Brother Wang, we, we are not on a pirate ship!"

"Hey, I said boy, what are you talking about, what is a thief ship, this is our business!"

"That's it?"

Wang Xin and the others were immediately dumbfounded.

Is this the business?
"That's right, that's it. This is our business. Let's capture them, then transport them back and sell them. Wang Xin, let me tell you, when arresting people, try to catch them alive. All of them are worth money." .”

"But, this is a human being. This business will require decapitation and Ling Chi."

Wang Xin said nervously.

"The king's law only protects the enlightened. These natives are savages who have no country and no country. Let's take them there to educate them."

It is extremely rare to talk about the issue of capturing slaves so grandly, but this is the case in this era. The Dutch, Portuguese, and Spaniards are here to capture and trade slaves in the same way.

As for those immigrants who came here, they also adapted to the life of slaves and drove slaves as the Romans did. When it was time to beat and scold them, they were no less harsh than Westerners.However, as long as those slaves are not lazy, Ming people generally will not abuse them. Compared with Europeans, they are definitely good people among slave owners.

"Yes, but Wang Fa..."

Before Wang Xin finished speaking, Second Master Sun said.

"Wang Xin, remember that the king's law only protects the Ming people! We Ming people are the people of the celestial dynasty and the people of the country! What are these people? They are savages and Fanyi. The people of the country can capture the savages as slaves. This is the order of the emperor of Zhou. According to the rules, courtesy is not inferior to ordinary people. These savages are not even considered ordinary people. Let's take them back and educate them so that they understand etiquette. Only then can they become ordinary people. Where is this place? South China Sea! South China Sea There is such a rule in the place. If we want to live a good life, we have to be different from the past. We will not be able to live a good life by farming alone. We are not as numerous as the natives. We need They opened up wasteland and farmed for us, don’t you think so?” Sun Er knew that these newcomers would definitely be uncomfortable, and they still haven’t realized that the South China Sea is not the Ming Dynasty they are familiar with. People or natives drove a large number of slaves to do as the Romans did. If Ming could not adapt to all this, it would end up being left far behind in this colonial frenzy. "Is it really okay for us to do this?"

Wang Xin was surprised.

"After we finish our work, we still have to go back to Nantianmen, and the business still has to be done there. Are you okay? Mingfa only protects Mingren! This is the rule overseas!"

Hearing what Sun Erye said, Wang Xin felt relieved now. Since he is not a Ming person, there is nothing to say.

In fact, there is nothing to say at all, just do as the Romans do!
The farther east they went, the more small boats they encountered, just like all the slave-grabbing ships. When they saw these small boats, they accepted a principle, either they would take the pot, or they would not do it.Of course, along the way, they have been looking for real big deals.

For them, what is a big deal is of course the native villages by the sea, but it is not easy to find a suitable village to start with.

In this way, in the following days, the "Ji Shun" in the style of a galleon sailed along the coastline of Java Island...
