Chapter 231: The taken advantage of—Jabba
229. The taken advantage of—Jabba
The outer ring of the galaxy, the planet Tatooine.
A man wrapped tightly in a cloak quietly walked into a tavern in Mos Eisley. There were already dozens of fierce-looking bounty hunters inside drinking. They saw this man. When he came in, they immediately stopped and dozens of pairs of eyes stared at him.
The man didn't say much. He came to the bar and threw down a few Upi Upi coins and whispered: "A glass of Spock."
The bartender pushed over a glass of blue fluorescent wine. He picked up the glass, took a big sip, and then slammed the glass to the ground!
There was a click, and glass shards and unfinished drinks flew everywhere!
The expressions of the surrounding bounty hunters and mercenaries suddenly changed, and they stood up at the same time. They surrounded this man, and their expressions became extremely ferocious!
There was no group fight as expected, but the big bounty hunters and mercenaries just surrounded him, and his breathing gradually became faster.
Finally, one of the mercenaries spoke, "Isn't it still possible?"
The man lifted his hood and saw that he looked elegant and elegant, and was wearing a pair of glasses. However, he showed no fear when surrounded by many big men. His expression was a little ferocious, "Jabba only agreed to pay a quarter of our bounty! He said the rest could only be paid after Gadula is captured or killed!"
People around He yelled and cursed, "Asshole!!!"
"That moving piece of Bantha shit!!"
"Sprinkle spices into his wounds!"
“A quarter of the bounty? I stayed in this filthy place like Tatooine for more than a year and only received a quarter of the bounty?”
"My good brother's spaceship was shot down by Black Sun's escort spacecraft!! This bounty is not even enough for my sister-in-law's settlement!!"
The bounty hunters and mercenaries cursed angrily and filmed. People on the table smashed wine glasses, and the crowd was furious.
They were all bounty hunters hired by Jabba during the previous war with Gardulla. At that time, the Bothan Broderick and Gravel hired by Gardulla were so bold that they actually robbed During his Bounta night podracing competition, Jabba was furious and ordered all his bounty hunters to attack Gardura.
But in the final analysis, these bounty hunters still get paid to do things. Most of them usually go about their own business, and only come to pick up jobs when Jabba has them. And because of their relationship with Jabba, they would not take jobs that were not detrimental to Jabba.
In other words, they did not have a long-term employment relationship with Jabba, but a temporary employment relationship. Jabba asked them to do things in exchange for money.
But here's the problem. At that time, Jabba was so angry that he offered a high bounty for hunting down the properties and spaceships on Gadula's side.
The result was that bounty hunters and mercenaries swarmed forward, almost smashing the port of Mos Espa where Gadula was entrenched to the ground. Not only that, those bounty hunters piloted spaceships like hungry wolves to patrol the space around Tatooine. Once they found a target, they immediately pounced on the target and tore the target into pieces.
Even many civilian shops, houses and spaceships were affected and suffered heavy damage. But those crazy bounty hunters didn't care, and even directly killed good people and took credit.
In the end, the amount of bounty waiting to be paid in front of Jabba became an astronomical figure!
Jabba was really mute and couldn't tell the story of the pain he suffered from eating Coptis chinensis. He later did a calculation and found that Mos Espa Port was almost smashed to the ground. The problem was that in the end it was still his territory. ah?
He has to spend money to hire people to destroy his land, and then spend another sum of money to rebuild it?
The most important thing is that he spent a lot of money. Where is the head of the Hutt, Gadula, who he vowed to see within a month? There isn’t even a single hair on it!
Jabba was only sure that Gardulla was still on Tatooine, but where was she? No one knows! Okay, so the situation is like this: he spent money to kill Gadula, but Gadula was still alive and happy, and then he spent money to destroy his own territory in order to kill Gadula, and then he had to spend money again Fix it yourself?
The more Jabba thought about it, the more frustrated he became, so he began to default on the debt using various excuses.
Different from the original plot, there was not much trouble on Tatooine at all in the original plot. When Gadula found out that the assassination of Hego failed, he turned around and ran back to Nashada to retreat. The conflict between the two did not become that intense. Gardula hid for a few years, and after Heige died, he came out to admit his mistake to Jabba and became Jabba's younger brother.
And because Jabba helped Hego avoid assassination, Hego had been secretly supporting him. Sidious didn't think much about dealing with him after Hego's death. So in the end, Jabba became prosperous on Tatooine. When the civil war broke out, even the fleets of both warring parties had to look at his face if they wanted to pass through Hutt space.
But the situation is different now. With Tang Xiao backing Gadula, there was so much trouble on Tatooine that even the Bounta Night Podracer race, the lifeline of Jabba, was destroyed. . Then he was running around fighting guerrillas all over the planet and couldn't catch him at all. Now Jabba wanted to catch Gadula and eat him alive.
In addition, Tang Xiao was the first to take the credit for reminding Hei Ge to avoid the assassination. Now Hei Ge's status in Hei Ge's mind skyrocketed. As a result, Jabba, who was the second person to remind Hei Ge, turned out to have ulterior motives. that.
As for Hego’s support for Jabba? Now all Heige's money is used to build Ragnarov-class Titan battleships, okay? !
Well, Tang Xiao brought out this Titan battleship again.
And now, in order to relieve some pressure on Gadula, who is secretly engaged in construction in Tatooine and is running around extorting the Jawas, Baron Helmut Zemo has another idea for the Jawas. On Ba.
If it were in the past, when those bounty hunters heard that Jabba was going to default on their debts, most of them could only break their front teeth and swallow blood. At most, they would just stop following Jabba in the future. It was impossible for them to openly confront Jabba. With Jabba's power, he could kill them with one finger.
But the situation was different under the instigation of Baron Zemo...
In recent months, he has been wandering around Tatooine as an 'ordinary mercenary'. With his super high quotient and excellent eloquence, he soon became the backbone of these mercenaries whose brains are all muscles, and became a character like a dog-headed strategist.
Then Baron Zemo has been secretly instigating the relationship between these bounty hunters, mercenaries and Jabba, which soon made these people excited and wanted to tear Jabba apart!
Looking at the noisy mercenaries and bounty hunters around him, an unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of Baron Zemo's mouth, then he stood up with a sigh and said: "Okay, brothers, I think we I’m going to say goodbye. Everyone’s drinks are on me today!”
After that, he took out a money bag and threw it on the bar. Put the upi upi coins.
The mercenaries were shocked, "Brother Zemo, what's wrong with you? I remember that you are saving money recently to replace an engine for the spacecraft? How..."
" Brother Zemo, tell me what’s going on now! Tell us who’s trying to get in trouble with you, and watch me, Red Fang Barry, cut him off piece by piece!”
"Tatooine, this is not our world anymore. Let's break up, let's break up..." Zemo waved his hand and walked out directly.
Thanks to Kongjiyue for the 1,500 starting coins! !
