King Snake General of Pirates
Chapter 20 Insatiable Greed
Southern Military District.
In a manor that is relatively luxurious compared to other residences, the commander of the Southern Military Region Security Force is lazily leaning on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding a glass of expensive red wine in his left hand, a cigar in his mouth, and quietly listening to the other side. A bearded man kept complaining.
"Who would have thought that there would be bold people in the south and west who would dare to play tricks on me. The news I got that night was completely false!"
"Damn it, you would never have guessed that the box my men spent so much time and effort to rob didn't contain anything of value at all, but worthless newspapers and waste paper!"
Seeing the bearded man dancing around, blushing and complaining with thick mouth, this man couldn't stop talking since he walked into his house, constantly telling about the suffering and hardships of himself and his men, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time.
Montgomery took out the cigar from his mouth, squinted and blew out a thick cloud of white smoke. Through the smoke, he looked at the heartless little man in front of him with a shrewd eye. Then he took a sip of red wine and made a soft sound of satisfaction.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of stopping and wanted to continue talking, Montgomery couldn't help but interrupt him and said: "Watch your words, Balk."
"Save your energy. Too many unnecessary complaints will only make you impatient and lack wisdom. If anyone provokes you, you should send someone to kill him and it will be over. What's the use of complaining to me. "
Montgomery put the cigar that had just been lit into the ashtray and put it out. With his mind as clear as a mirror, he said with a half-smile:
"If you plan to share more of what you snatched from Cyril, you don't need to tell me how difficult it is for you. No matter how difficult it is, it's still your business. I don't have to be responsible for you. Everything has been discussed before we cooperate. That’s it, isn’t it?”
Balk, who was poked into his thoughts, smiled and didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he leaned on the sofa and crossed his legs and said with a smile: "That's natural. Of course, things that have been negotiated before cooperation cannot be changed at will. , I know how to divide things, you don’t have to worry about that.”
At this time, he still looked as red and angry as before. The speed of his face change was amazing.
But obviously this little trick was like fire wrapped in paper in the eyes of Montgomarin, who had experienced officialdom for a long time and had extraordinary experience. He couldn't hide it at all.
"only……"
Balk paused, looked up at Montgomery, and said: "We have been cooperating for so long that I can't even remember what we originally discussed. I'm really sorry. I think we need to find some time to start again." Let’s talk and see how we can distribute the benefits more reasonably.”
"More reasonable? Do you feel that you have received less? Or do you feel that you have lost an opponent? Now you are more powerful and can control a wider range, which increases your ambition and wants more? "Mongomerin shouted loudly.
As a military commander, he has been with the soldiers in the military camp all year round, and has already developed a casual temper. Montgomarin is outspoken, and rarely cares about surface politeness when he speaks and does things.
Although it makes people feel comfortable that they are not as good as those aristocratic ministers who are good at dealing with people and dealing with people. When facing them, they may control their temper and express their thoughts tactfully, but if they are facing a gang boss, no matter how much they cover up, It makes you look inferior and more cumbersome.
As for why he couldn't guess what Balke meant, it was obvious that after Cyril was killed by an unknown person, the larger underground forces in the entire southern military region were controlled by Balke. As his power grew, he felt the weight of his words. It's also heavier.
Therefore, I dare to negotiate terms with myself and want to ask for more.
"Insatiable."
Montgomery smiled in his heart, so what if he has mastered a larger underground force. The Southern Military Region is not a chaotic place like the west, and it is not a place where underground forces are qualified to flourish. As long as he is the commander of the Southern Military Region for a day, those who cannot see it will The power of light can only linger under his own hands and do things based on his own eyes.
Balk also knew this, so he straightened his back and touched the stubble near his mouth, and said with a slightly nervous expression:
"Dear Commander Montgomery, please don't say that. Who doesn't know that you are the leader of the Southern Military Region and have absolute say in the south. Without your support, I will have to weigh my wings even if I want to fly out. Myself, besides, you asked me to hide my power before, so I hid such a big power, didn’t I do a good job?”
Montgomery enjoyed the other party's compliment, and said in a gentle tone: "I let you hide your power because I am afraid that you will be targeted and implicate me. Otherwise, that Cyril may be your end."
"Yes, yes, you are right."
"Who was the one who killed Cyril's group? Have you found out?"
Balk leaned back on the sofa and replied thoughtfully: "Not yet, but I have asked my people to investigate. According to preliminary guesses, it is the same group of people who spread the false news to us, and some are running around in the west. Some small forces in the military region also want to have the goods in their hands."
There hasn't been much trouble in the Kingdom of Androser in the past two days, so the gang shootout near the noble area quickly spread throughout the kingdom. In the eyes of others, it was just a battle between ordinary forces, but in the eyes of the participant Balke , that was a premeditated killing.
Combined with the last collected information that Cyril's remaining forces were attacked and wiped out by thugs and criminals, as well as the inexplicable death of Cyril himself, he guessed that the batch of goods in the fake news did exist.
But not in the boxes I grabbed.
Therefore, since Cyril's death was confirmed, Balk immediately assigned many men to occupy his territory and property, and also found some smart people to find out the identity of Cyril's murderer, and finally found it in the Western Military Region.
Afraid of the chaos in the Western Military Region, the few brothers only went to the outskirts to inquire and then came back.
Not much important information.
Among them, it was discovered that the Navy had arrested pirates at the same time. However, in everyone's perception, the battle between gangs was not within the scope of the Navy's responsibilities, so Balk did not pay too much attention.
"Western Military Region?" Montgomery narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "When did such a force appear in that dirty and chaotic place? They are so courageous that they dare to come from the west to kill people in our south. Do they want to reach out to our south? It’s impossible to come from the south.”
Balk suggested: "How about I send a few more skilled people to the west to secretly kill those people? It's always uncomfortable to keep them."
Sure enough, as Montgomery knew, his mind was not big enough to support himself in being deceived.
"Instead of spending this energy to deal with some little people in the west, you should think more about how to swallow up more power in the south. Moreover, the economy created by the wastes under your hands is getting less and less." Montgomery replied nonchalantly. road.
Balk blinked and replied with a guilty conscience: "It's really difficult to discipline when there are too many people. It's hard to guarantee that there won't be a few worms who are filling their own pockets. I will discipline them seriously."
The two of them talked until the early hours of the morning, and it was not until dawn that Balk sneaked out of the manor without being noticed.
