Grumman thought that shouting this sentence would make the opponent put down the weapon in his hand.
After all, the empire is still in full swing. The Royal Navy is invincible across the seven seas. The officials of the empire are the local emperors. If they dare to attack the officials of the empire, it is tantamount to rebellion. The whole family will be implicated.
Therefore, no one dared to be disrespectful to imperial officials.
Grumman's use of his status to bully the business travelers is also in every way disadvantageous.
He thought it was the same today. With his status as an imperial official and the 200 elite port guards behind him, wouldn't it be easy to pinch a passing nobleman?
Unexpectedly, the kick hit the iron plate. Instead of raising his hand and offering his wealth, the other party dared to take up arms to resist. Could it be that they wanted to rebel? Aren't you afraid of being chased by the Royal Navy?
Grumman angrily pointed at the people on the White Bird, trying to suppress them with his identity.
"Empire official?" Zhang Tuohai laughed when he heard this.
"If you were not an imperial official, I might not have the same knowledge as you, but since you are an imperial official, there is nothing to say."
Zhang Tuohai snapped his fingers.
The cable that had been quietly prepared suddenly exploded, hoisting Grumman and the 200 port guards in the air.
Especially Grumman was still hung upside down.
"You are an official of the empire, right? Your father is the governor, right? Then your family must be rich?" Zhang Tuohai asked in a cold voice when he came to Grumman.
"You, what are you going to do? Let me down quickly, I tell you, I am an official of the empire, my father is the governor, if you dare to touch me, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and you will be hunted down by the Royal Navy to death!" Gru Man said loudly.
Hearing this, Zhang Tuohai smiled.
"Do you think I'm not wanted by the Royal Navy now? Let me tell you, my bounty is 100,000 dinars. How about it? One of my subordinates is 1,000 dinars, a total of 300,000 dinars. If you get the money, everything is easy to talk about. If you can’t get the money, I will tie you to the artillery and throw you into the sea to feed the fish.”
Zhang Tuohai said with a sneer.
"300,000? Why don't you grab it?" Grumman cursed angrily.
"Am I not grabbing? Also, don't try to challenge my patience. My patience is limited. If you lose a dinar, I will cut off your arm."
After speaking, Zhang Tuohai controlled the cable and lowered a guard.
"You report the letter. If I don't see the money within an hour, then let the governor go to the bottom of the sea to collect the corpse."
Zhang Tuohai said coldly.
The guard didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly ran towards the governor's mansion.
"Is it not good for us to blackmail the imperial officials so openly?" Yin Lisabai asked in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Tuohai said indifferently, "If he doesn't take the initiative to ask for trouble, will I blackmail them? Don't worry, they will only blame me and won't implicate you. If you are scared, I can take you off the ship if you find a chance, and you can find another merchant ship to return to Orleans."
"I'm not going back." Yin Lisabai shook her head quickly, "I have to get married and have children when I go back. Such a life is too boring, and I have to travel all over the seven seas to find all the delicacies in this world."
"What about you? What do you think?" Zhang Tuohai turned to Linda and asked.
"I, I don't know."
Linda shook her head.
She instinctively felt that extorting imperial officials was not a good thing.
But she couldn't understand that Grumman pointed a gun at them when he came up.
They were just eating on the boat and didn't provoke anyone. Why did that Grumman come to trouble them?
Right and wrong, good and evil are entangled in Linda's heart, so she doesn't know how to face it.
"It doesn't matter. If you can't figure it out, think about it slowly. If you see a lot, you will figure it out one day."
Zhang Tuohai said calmly.
The Unsullied and the pirates speeded up their meal, cleared the table after eating, picked up their weapons, and got ready for battle.
They all knew that a battle would soon be fought.
Zhang Tuohai was still eating slowly.
The action of the Governor's Mansion was very fast. In less than twenty minutes, a group of infantry rushed out of the barracks and rushed towards the port.
At the same time, a group of people walked out of the Governor's Mansion, carrying large boxes, and rushed towards the pier.
"Scatter, scatter, scatter!"
The infantry came to the pier and began to drive away the people on the pier.
Seeing this situation, those sailors didn't dare to stay, they hurriedly dispersed, some returned to the ship, and some hid in the tavern.
"Sword Comes"
The huge pier was quickly emptied.
After a while, people from the governor's mansion came to the pier.
A middle-aged fat man came to the White Bird.
"I came here with good intentions, we will offer a ransom, please return the person to us."
The middle-aged fat man said with a smile.
"Let's look at the ransom first." Zhang Tuohai said.
"Okay, bring it up." The fat man beckoned.
A team of servants brought up the boxes one by one.
The chests were opened, each one filled with shiny dinars.
"This represents our sincerity." The fat man said with a smile.
Looking at the box full of dinars, the pirates couldn't help but took a deep breath, and everyone's eyes were full of light.
After all, this is 300,000 dinars of real money, and it is still very impactful when stacked together.
The sum of the money they have passed in their lives may not be so much.
Seeing the expressions of those pirates around him, Fatty's heart was filled with disdain. It really is a group of poor ghosts who have never seen money. Is the money from the Governor's Mansion so easy to get? I'll make you spit it all out right now.
However, his face was still full of smiles: "I wonder if you are still satisfied?"
"I've always done things fairly. Since I said I would release him after taking 300,000 yuan, I will definitely release him."
Zhang Tuohai snapped his fingers.
Pulling the rope threw Grumman and the guards to the ground.
"Ah—" Grumman screamed, clutching his arm, he felt that his arm was broken.
The fat man's face twitched a few times, forced a smile on his face, and said, "Since the transaction is completed, I will take my leave."
After speaking, the fat man trotted away from the White Bird.
"Let Grumman go, will they take revenge on us?" Yin Lisabeth asked quietly from the side.
"Don't worry, I have arrangements." Zhang Tuohai said after taking a sip of donkey broth.
At this moment, from outside the port, two second-class cruisers of the Royal Navy suddenly appeared outside the port. The gun windows opened one after another, and a series of black guns were pushed out, aiming at the White Bird.
"Listen, the people on board, put down their weapons immediately, raise their hands and surrender, or they will be punished as treason!"
A lobsterman shouted through a giant megaphone.
