The First Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety-Seventh First Navy

"Since this is the case, then I will not force it. We will discuss the future. I will stay here until tomorrow morning at most. I may not come here in the future. You may lose an opportunity. " Li Cong said with a smile, the reason why he wanted the Jia family to agree to his request in such a hurry was because Li Cong's ships and everything were already ready, and he had every reason to believe that the Jia family would do it with him. The strength of this smuggling business will skyrocket in less than a few months. At that time, they will definitely not be the same as they are now. They will definitely have their own ideas. Once their ideas are expressed, it is probably that It's time for them to be wiped out, and at that time the situation on the front line will also be affected.

"I'll give you a reply before you get on the boat." Jia San said, Jia Zheng looked at Jia San a little strangely, Jia Zheng thought that the deal would be impossible, but he didn't expect his cousin How dare you have the guts to help yourself agree to this matter? What kind of identity do you have, and when did you have the right to make a decision? He didn't even look at what kind of person and identity he was, but he couldn't tell in front of Li Cong, he had to save face for Jia San.

"Okay, I hope you two don't let me down. I can see that both of you are very good at doing business. This kind of opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. You don't always have such an opportunity. I will I'm waiting for you here, if I don't hear from you, I think I will find another partner." Li Cong said with a smile. Both Jia San and Jia Zheng nodded and went out. Li Cong gave him a wink. Hu Si helped Li Cong see off the guests. Although Hu Si and Li Cong are in a cooperative relationship, Hu Si is very good at acting. Now he wants to throw away his identity as a collaborator. Now he wants to Becoming Li Cong's subordinate depends on whether Li Cong accepts him or not. The thing about rushing to be a younger brother is probably what this guy can do.

When going out, Hu Si asked two of his subordinates to deliver two baskets, and Jia Zheng was very depressed about what it was. How could you send such a gift in return? But when he got in the car, he was dumbfounded when he saw it. This is a very rare fruit in the Southern Empire. This kind of thing can last for a month at most. He didn't expect to be able to eat it. He remembered the last time he ate it. At that time, it was still at the family meeting. At that time, many people were given this opportunity, but their dozen or so brothers were only able to divide a piece the size of a fist. No way, this thing costs tens of thousands of gold a catty, but there are quite a few people who can afford this price, but they don’t have that many goods, and these things must be magically blessed by a magician on some utensils Yes, but this also wastes a lot of mana for a magician. The value of this thing is high. In fact, this kind of thing is nothing in the Northern Empire. It is only in the Eastern Empire that the price is high. There is a natural barrier between the Eastern Empire and the other empires, and the danger is reduced. a lot of. But this connection is also much less, at least some of their things are not here.

"Cousin, the price of these two baskets is not cheap. If I am not wrong, the things inside can be worth millions of silver. It is not likely that there will be these fruits in the palace. These things are from the capital. Those nobles wanted it so hard." Jia San took a bite and said, he had never eaten these things, he had only heard about them, and these things are actually not that precious.

It's just that rare things are more expensive, and things that haven't appeared on the market are naturally good things.

"But if we smuggle it on a large scale, the price of this thing probably won't be that high. Xiaosan, what happened to you just now, I can't say anything in front of outsiders, but after so many years, you are not a little girl." My child, when we two go out, who will talk and who will not, and who should say what should be clear, how can we talk like that, this is not a good phenomenon." Thinking of what happened just now, Jia Zheng still had some doubts in his heart. Angry, but this guy is not a fool, he naturally knew the reason why Jia San spoke, and now he expressed his dissatisfaction, and he had to ask Jia San to say what he should say.

"Cousin, how could I be so ignorant of the rules? I really think that my cousin wants to refuse this matter. To be honest, I did some calculations just now. Although it was a bit risky at the beginning, but This is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Didn’t our grandfather tell us that the same dangers represent the same interests? If we don’t do it now, he will definitely find someone else to do it. In the southern coast, except Our Jia family, but the Linghu family has such abilities. The Linghu family is already very powerful in the court. If it weren't for our family's solid background, they would have started to suppress us. The Linghu family has been suppressing us for the past two years. The development is very fast, if they really do it, our life will be really difficult." Jia San's vision is still good, Jia Zheng didn't even think of this thing, really didn't expect this kid to think of it, What he said is true, but it is definitely not a small amount to use tens of billions of silver. If it succeeds, there is no problem, but if it fails, the family will punish him very severely. This kid is just talking about it, but he is different.

In fact, Jia San also understands that his cousin may be very hesitant at the moment, just like what he said, he just needs to move his lips, and he doesn't need to take care of the rest, but cousin It's different, if this matter is successful, I can definitely be promoted, but if it fails, my cousin's fate will come to an end, and I can't do without myself because of the casino, so it shouldn't be far from the present day , At most, it is enough to receive two reprimands. Anyway, I have a thick skin, it is impossible for me to have those things, and I don't care about it. It's up to him now.

"Do you think we should do this?" On the way, Jia Zheng couldn't make up his mind even though he was eating the best fruit. After all, this matter was too big. Jia San didn't say a word on the sidelines, anyway, the boss asked him and said it himself. If you don't ask, we're dumb.

"Cousin, I think we should do it. Besides, the word smuggling in the south is nonsense for us. We just come in like that. Who dares to say anything. If we are in other areas, we may Those who don’t have this ability, but they are in the south. This is not a problem for us. If my cousin is afraid of danger, we can transport it to our overseas islands. When the time comes, we will transport it in from there. That channel is what we use. It should be no problem." Jia San said, he must strongly agree. It doesn't do me any harm, but it benefits me a lot. If I don't agree with such a thing, then my brain will really have a problem. Seeing this matter go away, how can I not be in a hurry?

"That's right, it's just like what you said. In the south, apart from us being able to do this business, that is to say, the Linghu family can do it. Recently, Linghu Pinqiu led an army to go out to fight. The matter of the Thunder Gate is already known to the whole world. Linghu This guy Pinqiu has always been very good at using soldiers like a god. If he is allowed to make great achievements, and the power of Thunderbolt Gate enters the empire. At that time, our ranking will definitely drop a lot. Their Linghu family has been fighting with everyone. The big aristocratic family can’t make it through, and they will definitely take the opportunity to weaken us at that time, so it’s better for us to make ourselves stronger now.” These words seem to be for Jia San, and they seem to be for himself, these things are really true. It's a bit difficult. Jia Zheng and the others don't know that the Linghu family is actually a branch of the royal family. They just know that the Linghu family is the most powerful family other than the royal family, but they don't marry the royal family. Why support them? In fact, the Linghu family is an inconvenient tool for the royal family. If some big families grow up, let the Linghu family deal with them. This is also very good for the royal family. To weaken the Linghu family, the older generations of the Linghu family are in favor of this, because they can't forget their mission, but for the new generation, they are very disgusted with such things. It seems that only the royal family is their worst enemy.

"Cousin, is this going to be done? If we are determined to pay attention to this, I think we should start preparing earlier, otherwise we will suffer in the end. This kid doesn't seem to be such a serious person. If this guy really If you contact the Linghu family, I think the Linghu family will definitely do it. First, they are rich and powerful, which is far beyond what we can compare. Another is that they also need to expand quickly. This is definitely a shortcut Yes, if they know the potential partner of the Linghu family, they will definitely not be close to us, and we have to make preparations early." Jia San said immediately, he was also afraid that this deal would be blocked by Linghu If this is true, the two brothers may have to be divided into five horses by the family meeting.

"Well, I've decided. Just do what he said. I just don't know why this guy insists on using gold to settle the bill. We don't have much gold in the south. As for the gold in the other three empires We don’t have many silver bills at all, let alone for business, even if they are given to our intelligence personnel, they may not be useful. Anyway, they will come here for a short time. During this time, we can properly raise some gold. "Jia Zheng was still thinking a long way, he hadn't discussed things here, and he started talking about the transaction over there, and Jia San also felt that his cousin really cared too much.

Since the two brothers had discussed it, they naturally asked the steward to tell Li Cong that they were going to do this business after returning home, and paid a deposit of 30 million gold in accordance with Li Cong's regulations. The goods are nothing in comparison, but this is okay. If you want to play yourself, there is no need to throw in so much money. Their money is not blown by the wind, it is all earned, so Li Cong concluded They won't mess around with themselves, and they have to prepare well when they go back.

As for Li Cong, a member of the Ax Gang, he also has a new arrangement. Since he has already started doing business with the Jia family, the business of the Ax Gang can be stopped. Although they can still do small things, but In this way, there is no way to compete with the Jia family. First of all, the most powerful one is that the reputation of the Jia family is much better than theirs. In the past, their background solved many things for them, but now their background also restricts their development. of the primary factor.

Li Cong is going to ask Hu Si to help him establish his own information network in the Eastern Empire, although his intelligence system in the Eastern Empire has already been established. But some of the news given are of little value, if this continues. I don't know when it will become more efficient. Since this is the case, Li Cong feels that he should start with his own people. After all, his own people belong to outsiders, although the faces of people from several great empires are the same. , but their living habits are still easy to see. Although the secret agents are very careful, others can still see it if they observe carefully. There is no need to cover up one's own people, and the chances of being spotted are much lower.

After Hu Si knew Li Cong's plan, he almost knelt down. Li Cong knew that this guy still had his own abilities. The most important thing for him to succeed now is that he didn't need any nonsense. With such ability, it is impossible for him to bury such a talent, and this guy also knows how to measure. He doesn't do illegal things, but it depends on how profitable it is. If Li Cong didn't have genetic medicine by his side, he might have just forced this guy to drink. This is what Li Cong needs, otherwise If such a person with a brain is by his side. It is indeed a little scary.

The Ax Gang is also different from the original ones. Each of their front-runners here has increased a lot of expenses. Although there is more money, they also do more things. In the past, they collected protection fees on the street. . Now they have to pay them protection fees because they have to sell their inventory. There isn't a good market in the area they control, and the other gangs deliberately don't let the hawkers come here in order to make it difficult for them, and that's why they meet together.

As for Xiao Ao, when he boarded the boat, this kid has already changed to the same as before. He is a lively person, but anyone who is familiar with him can feel that this kid's strength has risen too fast. Now a six-year-old It is absolutely no problem to be a super fighter. If you encounter a not very powerful seventh-level fighter, you can kill it. This kid has also slowly entered the state of self-cultivation. Of course, the food he eats has also begun to upgrade. I didn’t eat those things, and now I eat gold and other precious metals. Li Cong really doesn’t know what’s in this guy’s stomach, how can he eat such hard things, but the father and son have always It's all about not asking children much, so there's nothing to talk about.

For the third young master who suddenly appeared, everyone on board felt very strange. How could he become the shopkeeper? The boy's next words interrupted their discussion, but Li Lai Lai's words were just resigned, almost choking everyone to death.

"Boy, this incident was caused by you. You haven't said goodbye to the uncles yet. If you run out again next time, I will definitely make you look good. Don't expect me to come here to borrow you." Li Cong said helplessly, this little bastard really doesn't listen to his own words very much, only such a kid can attend, of course, this has not been verified.

After talking to a few people, Xiao Ao lowered his head and followed Li Cong onto the boat. These family members who followed Li Cong will not go back. They will stay here to discuss the details with the Jia family. There is also the issue of the Eastern Empire’s intelligence network. Although Hu Si is a native of the Eastern Empire, this guy’s current ability is still too small to be of much use at all. It would be meaningless to count on such a guy, so I still have to help this guy now, and if I pay a little now, I can gain a lot in the future.

At this time, Xiao Ao could keep his head down and say nothing. Now this kid knows what's going on. He knows very clearly what a stupid thing he did this time. What a huge trouble it might have brought to my father. Although he has successfully advanced, and seems to have some other abilities, such as the ability to fly, which he did not have before, But now, he knows that all of this is the result of his father's hard work, and now this guy honestly followed Li Cong back. In fact, he can go to Li Cong's inner world, but Li Cong also feels that he is in the past two days. This kid is a little too strict. In the future, he can let this kid follow him outside, so that this kid won't feel particularly bored. This is also a very good way.

In front of so many people, Li Cong could only leave by boat. After leaving the waters of the Eastern Empire, he could take an airship. Back in the New World, Li Cong didn't want to be on the ship for such a long time. He still had a lot of things to do. After boarding the ship, Xiao Ao began to chat happily with the sailors, and Li Cong didn't care about him now. Anyway, I have made a spiritual imprint on this kid, if he leaves me, I will know it immediately, and Xiao Ao also understands, as a plant life, although he can imitate the appearance of a human being, but he He is not alone, if he leaves his master for too long, he may wither himself. After knowing such a huge matter, this kid will naturally have to be more honest, and he will be even more fatal when he grows up.

Li Cong wants to take a look at various news on the mainland recently, all of which were searched by the intelligence agencies of Cao's House of Firms. Naturally, the first news about the joint resistance of the Eastern Empire is the first news. Empire is very nice. Moreover, it seems that the Southern Empire is not very kind because of the work and effort. The killing god of the Southern Empire will always cause some troubles for himself. His army in the Southern Empire was actually surrounded by the army of the Southern Empire. , this is nothing out of the ordinary. But there is no way to start training or something, it is simply not the army. Just like a prisoner.

Cao's House of Commerce has also conducted a series of communications with Shashen and the Southern Empire government, but obviously the effect is not very good. This is still the case up and down. The root cause is that they still feel the Eastern Empire. The relationship with them is not too big, or the Thunder Gate is now surrounded by Li Cong, and it is impossible to get out. Now that they don't have that crisis, naturally they don't need to cooperate with Cao's House of Commerce. Some of them What I must be thinking about is how to weaken the Cao's House. Prince Zheng has discussed this issue with Killing God many times, and Prince Zheng also sent Li Lai Lai the news, asking him to have a good relationship with Killing God. Let's communicate, what they are doing now is related to the whole continent. If the people from the Thunder Gate go back because the people from the Southern Empire don't cooperate, it will be terrible. All this is for nothing.

Li Cong felt that it was necessary for him to have a good communication with the people from the Southern Empire, but he didn’t have any threats that he could take out. The people from the Southern Empire might not call him so much, maybe they would still feel I am afraid of them, and I can't do such a thing without communicating with them. If this is the case, Li Cong might as well let his fleet fight with the people of the Southern Empire. Good effect, thinking of this, Li Cong has his own ideas. If the world is not chaotic, he can't fish in troubled waters. The rear of the Southern Empire is indeed a bit too quiet. It seems that he should give them a little pressure. If you are restless, your own affairs may be resolved very well.

The next news is the news of Wu Zuoxi from the Western Empire. This old friend of Li Cong has been completely dismissed by the Emperor of the Western Empire. Of course, the treatment is still very good. The emperor also hypocritically said that if this guy had a son, he would definitely give him a hereditary title. Now that he has no son, he can only give this guy a duke title. Of course, Wu Zuoxi certainly has His son, but this son Li Cong kept it a secret for him, no one knew about it at all. Wu Zuoxi has been in the court for such a long time, so he naturally understands what should be said and what should not be said. If he said that he had a son in a while, it is estimated that his son would not see the sun tomorrow. The emperor may be the first person to do this. The reason why he treats himself so well is that he has no son. He has made too many plans for his future, if he has it now, how can he treat himself so well?

People in the Western Empire have already said that Wu Zuoxi's son acted as the son of his family's housekeeper, arranged a coincidence for Wu Zuoxi to see, and then recognized him as his adopted son. Everything was shown to the spies in the palace. Yes, afterwards Wu Zuoxi secretly sent one of the family servants and the cook far away to a village outside the city, and the palace believed that these two people were the child's biological parents. Although Wu Zuoxi's move is not very good, it is necessary for the child to follow him well in the future. Who knew that the servant and the cook were poisoned to death a month later, and the emperor of the Western Empire believed even more that the child belonged to these two people. In the past, he thought that the old guy was not happy after such a long time. It is as vicious as before, and now it seems that it is still the same as before. The emperor of the Western Empire should hurry up and give this guy a title and let him go home to take care of him. Anyway, it is a life-long title, which is nothing. You To live is to be a duke. You are nothing after you die.

For Wu Zuoxi, Li Cong must be useful. It is absolutely impossible for Wu Zuoxi to take up any position in his own firm with the title of duke now, but it is still very good to give Li Cong an idea. After all, Wu Zuoxi Li Cong's son came out because of Li Cong's ability. Of course, this sentence cannot be misunderstood. Li Cong is responsible for delivering the medicine, if there is no such thing as Li Cong. It is estimated that this old guy will not have his own son now.

When Wu Zuoxi retired from the court, there were two factions in the court. One faction was headed by Prince Zheng. They had plans for the entire empire. They didn't want people like Wu Zuoxi to leave just like that. This guy It should continue to stay in the court, but another faction believes that Wu Zuoxi's existence seriously affects their way forward. So they asked this old guy to go home quickly to take care of the elderly, not to block everyone's way forward. In the end, the emperor believed what these people said, and they didn't want to continue this matter at all, so it's better to go back. Wu Zuoxi didn't want to be a dog's leg to the royal family at first, and he didn't get any benefits in the end. It's not worth it to leave a whole body of infamy, it's better to go home and take care of the elderly.

Whether people in the court or in the court and the public, there are mixed feelings about Wu Zuoxi leaving the court, but Li Cong is happy. His power is expanding day by day. If people like Wu Zuoxi are really loyal to the court If you want to expand your own power in the future, it will not be a simple matter. It may make this matter very difficult, so it is better to go back. Of course, even if you lose your previous rights, Li Cong His attitude towards him is still the same as before. Four eighth-level warrior guards and one ninth-level monster guard are still following him. He is also very satisfied with this. At least with these people, it is impossible for his sons-in-law to go What bothers him is his sons-in-law. They didn't think about their old father-in-law before, but now they understand that they all think they have a lot of status. After your old father-in-law goes down, you will have no status at all. up.

There is also the news from the family. Several daughters-in-law are by Li's side, which is very good, and the life is very comfortable. I found a few powerful tenth-level monsters to protect them. The fighting power of these guys is astonishing. Of course, they are just pets in a normal state, and they will only show up when they are in danger. Otherwise, The appearance of a tenth-level monster in human society is such a huge news, maybe even the news about the king of monsters may be leaked out.

Another news is that the 18 ships of the naval fleet have already been prepared. They have formed a small fleet with 30 other ships, and they can basically go to sea to carry out some activities. On the earth It's not that Li Cong has never commanded a navy. Compared with the oceans here, the oceans on the earth are too small, and there is no comparison at all. Therefore, Li Cong very much hopes that his fleet can compete with the enemy in such an environment. In an overwhelming war, people from the Southern Empire happened to be in trouble, so he could use the navy to solve them. Li Cong's target was the city of Egula County in the southern part of the Southern Empire.

The status of this Egula County City and Yunlan City in the Eastern Empire is incomparable. Although they are both cities by the sea, their fleets are everywhere on the ocean of the Eastern Empire. It can be said that they are a naval power. Of course, it is only limited to this planet. The Southern Empire does not allow ordinary people to go into the water. In their view, if the common people go to the islands outside to become kings like those in the Eastern Empire, this is a big deal. There is no way to live, how can such a thing happen, so they just allow some small boats to operate in the offshore. Moreover, since the history of the mainland, it has never been recorded that there will be people in the south, so they think that there are no people in the sea. Haiphong? Forget it, this word does not need to be recorded at all.

When Li Cong returned to the New World, the fleet was already ready, and Xiao Ao also entered Li Cong's body to go dormant at this time. After getting ready for Yunlan City, Li Cong began to order his own small or Talk about a micro-fleet.

There are 18 battleships, carrying more than 6,000 cannons. The range of the cannons is more than 8,000 meters due to the modification. The soldiers on the deck all use chain crossbows, which can also improve their combat effectiveness a lot. In addition, there are 30 transport ships that follow. They all carry the shells used by these warships on them, and the rest are nothing.

There are also 20 troop carriers, all carrying soldiers, more than 10,000 people, these people will be the main force for robbery in the future, of course, now that they know their destination. Everyone is very scared, all the people add up to only 15,000 people, how can they seize the southern coastal county town of others, this is not a problem with the brain, many officers are Starting with this question, of course. Because Li has accumulated a lot of authority from the usual time, these guys still believe it very much and will not ask at the beginning.

After the fleet left the port, Li Cong immediately ordered to sail at full speed, because it is impossible to meet anyone in this place, and the closest place to the Southern Empire is more than 1,000km away. If there are merchant ships from the Southern Empire here, they are probably pirates. Except for them, it is impossible for people from the Southern Empire to come to this place.

But Li Cong's luck is really not very good. There was a storm just as we were on the road, which was a bit unlucky for those who were dawdling in the sea. Some soldiers were discussing whether their action this time, the Dragon Lord, was dissatisfied, and whether they should go back. The officers will definitely not participate in the discussion of these people, and they have put a few noisy soldiers in confinement. This is the only way to quiet them down one by one. Otherwise, I don’t know. What will happen to these guys, these guys listen to the wind and rain, and it's no wonder they didn't bring down the entire fleet.

After sailing for one night and walking about 700 kilometers, I need to be more vigilant at this time, and I will reach the city of Ugola County in 600 kilometers. If I go further here, I may meet their fishermen. It belongs to the offshore area. Li Cong has already started the reconnaissance posts on each ship. In this era without satellites and radars, we can only rely on the eyes of those above, but they still have many advantages over others. That is, they are all holding binoculars, which can clearly see things more than ten kilometers or even tens of kilometers away. They can know where the enemy is in advance, and the army can take advantage of it. It can be occupied, as long as the enemy is found, it will definitely be fought directly.

"I found ships, fifteen in number, about fifty kilometers ahead, and they are medium-sized ships. I can't see their flags visually yet." Li Cong heard such a voice when he just came out. Damn, this luck is so good today Let's be a little bit, I encountered a storm when I went out, and now I encountered a ship. Such things are really not very common. It is really good to have such a skill now. How could they come to this place? You must know this location There should be no boats.

Li Cong reached the lookout post above with a stride, and he stepped on it, flying even higher. Naturally, his eyes don't need binoculars, let alone what they reported. There is indeed such a fleet. It seems that they don't have any rules. The size of the ship is similar to that of Li Cong. At present, Li Cong can't see clearly, so he can only order the fleet to move forward. , Lean over to see what's going on, and at the same time ask people to put away all the things that can reveal the news of their side, otherwise it's no joke after being recognized, reputation.

After walking for another half an hour, it was obvious that the opponent's fleet had also spotted Li Cong and the others. They had already lowered all their sails, and each of them wanted to speed up to leave here, but at this time they wanted to Leaving is not that simple. There is no wind blowing, their speed is not very fast, and the distance between them and Li Cong is getting closer and closer. If you don't have enough strength on the sea, don't go with other people. The fleet is too close, which is good for everyone, but Li Cong and the others are here to find trouble, so naturally they will not be afraid of this, and immediately speed up to approach, and the dozen or so ships over there are immediately gone. Panicked, it can be seen that they should not have had much training in normal times, otherwise they would have taken measures long ago.

"Report, see clearly, there are fighters on their boat, not fishermen, they seem to be pirates." The checkpoint above reported that Li Cong can see the people above clearly at this time, and people in the Southern Empire will generally pay attention to it Now these people don't pay attention to their own appearance, there are only two possibilities, either they are fugitives or they are pirates.

Pirates generally understand what it means, but fugitives are a little unclear. To put it bluntly, these people are people who conceal their household registration. These people do not need to pay taxes, and their lives are actually not very good. , but it's still good to save a piece of money, but if they are found out, the result will definitely not be very good. You evaded taxes, and the one who received less money is the government. It would be evil if the court didn't hold you accountable So, people who evade taxes will not end well in the end.

"Report, the ships in the middle seem to be different from them. They seem to be robbing people, and we ran into them." Li Cong's observation skills are naturally not as good as these trained people. They have already seen what's going on. It turns out that these pirates were bumped into by themselves while doing business. It can only be considered that you are unlucky.

"Come on, let's be pirates for a while, and no one is allowed to speak later. Your accents will be heard immediately. Let's see what's going on with them. If they are the most evil, just throw them away. Going to feed the fish in the sea, if it can be reformed, I can see it and give them a chance, and here is a meritorious service for them." Li Cong said looking at the distance. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.
