Chapter 906 Pirates
"They usually run a bad business?"
"Of course. Look at what our supply depot on Sodin Island looks like, and then look at their beggars' den. Only blind passengers would choose to spend the night there!" Lei Ni sneered, "After we opened the supply depot on Sodin Island, the business on Black Page Island was not good. They thought of many tricks, but they couldn't even intimidate them. In the end, they had to find the captain and promise to bring a wave of customers over to get some kickbacks, so they could barely keep the business going."
"I see." He Lingchuan changed the subject, "You said before that the pirates in Yangshan Islands all knew about me?"
"Uh..." Lei Ni said embarrassedly, "I just said that casually."
He Lingchuan said again: "But Yang Zhubu just pointed out that you and the pirates are in collusion."
Yang Zhubu immediately said: "Yes, this is not groundless! Lei Ni is cunning, but her father has admitted it himself."
"So there are indeed pirates in Yangshan Islands?"
"..."
Yang Zhubu didn't want to speak anymore. The more he said, the more mistakes he made.
He Lingchuan waved his hand and kindly helped him out: "Miss Lei is right, it's my fault for not investigating it clearly in advance. Then let's talk about the pirates. Are you really connected with the pirates?"
He didn't mean to blame him, and Yang Zhubu felt relieved.
The island is there, and the pirates are there. It's just that this young master He didn't ask about it. Can he blame others in the end?
Leini bit her lip and looked at Yang Zhubu.
He Lingchuan immediately said: "Don't worry, it's just a casual chat. I won't turn you and your daughter over to the authorities."
"We didn't participate in their activities, didn't kill anyone, and didn't tip them off!" Lei Ni threw out three "no"s in a row, and then continued, "It's just that the second Taoist master is my father's childhood friend. He grew up naked..."
Naked buttocks played together.
But she realized that the words were not polite when they came to her lips, and quickly changed her words: "We have played together since we were young. With him around, other pirates don't come to harass us."
"Second leader?"
"Outskirts of Yangshan Islands, pirates divide their spheres of influence according to natural waterways, and there are three in total." Lei Ni explained, "My father recognized the second leader, and the other two also did not trouble us for the sake of the second leader."
"It seems that the second leader's face is really not small." He Lingchuan touched his chin, "How many people are there in each pirate group?"
"The first and third groups were attacked by Yin Hu a few days ago, and 90 and 130 people died respectively. The second group is fine, their location is closer to the land, far away from the depths of the archipelago."
When the word "Yin Hu" came out, Yang Zhubu sweated on his forehead.
What was supposed to come finally came.
Why didn't the guards send this girl surnamed Lei away before Mr. He returned?
But He Lingchuan seemed not to have heard this term, and continued to ask: "So now the second master is the strongest?"
"It should be. There are only more than 200 people left in the first and third paths, and only the second master's men are fully staffed."
"Oh, fully staffed?" He Lingchuan smiled, "How many people are fully staffed?"
"..." Lei Ni didn't want to say it.
He Lingchuan just waited, and everyone on the boat waited.
The sound of water gurgled, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lei Ni, making her back hairy.
She knew that if she didn't say a number, she couldn't pass this level.
"Eight, more than eight hundred!"
He Lingchuan said: "Then count it as four hundred."
"..." Lei Ni hurriedly said, "After dark, even the pirates are now worried. The day before yesterday, the second master talked to my father and said that he wanted to move to land temporarily."
Only land is safe.
"The pirates are all moving away, why don't you and your father move?"
Leni pursed her lips: "We can't move, Suoding Island is all our property."
That's why she was furious when Yang Zhubu wanted to send people away with a mere fifty taels: What's the difference between this and robbery?
He Lingchuan nodded: "What kind of temperament is this second Taoist master?"
"His left face was broken, and he looks fierce, but he is very kind to me. He often comes to my father to drink and play chess. My father said that he is loyal to his subordinates, and his subordinates are also very convinced of him. The year before last, a pirate's mother was seriously ill, and the second Taoist master gave him ten taels of silver and asked him to go back to serve the old lady." Lei Ni said, "Among the three Taoist masters, the first Taoist master has a bad temper, the third Taoist master is mean and mean; the second Taoist master has the most subordinates, not without reason."
So Lei's father decided to open a supply warehouse on Suoding Island, right?
Based on his relationship with the pirates, this is a unique business, and it is impossible to lose money no matter what he does.
Qiu Hu had been watching the sea, and suddenly said, "There is a ship following us."
Following the direction of his finger, everyone looked at the sea and saw a ship behind them, sailing neither fast nor slow, hanging more than a hundred feet behind the pleasure boat.
Yang Zhubu said, "Maybe it's a trade route, and it also takes this route."
Leni only glanced at it and said, "No, it's the ship of the second pirate. You have attracted their attention."
He Lingchuan crossed his fingers and looked at the ship behind him in thought.
Yang Zhubu ordered, "Speed up and get rid of it!"
At this critical moment, it's better not to have any accidents.
"No need." He Lingchuan asked Lei Ni, "Do they recognize you?"
Leni leaned against the bow and squinted to identify, then nodded: "The captain of this ship recognizes me!"
"Then you can get off the boat here." He Lingchuan ordered Rong Shanren to untie her boat, then turned to her and said, "Give the second Taoist master a message for me: I invite him to meet on the Fishbone Reef outside Blade Harbor at noon tomorrow. Both sides can bring up to five people. Please be sure to go."
This rich young man actually wants to meet the pirate leader? Think you are very capable? Reinich said: "If he doesn't go, he can't rely on me."
"This is an invitation from the new owner of the Yangshan Islands, and it is related to the future of the pirates." He Lingchuan smiled, "If he doesn't come, he will definitely regret it."
"What a big statement." Renee nodded, "I will definitely bring it for you."
She climbed down from behind the deck and jumped into her boat.
Qiu Hu helped her untie the cable and pushed the boat.
The boat cut through the water and jumped forward two or three feet.
This guy is so strong.
Renee thanked him and gave him another smile.
Qiu Hu nodded and watched her drift towards the pirate ship behind, before turning around and getting on the boat.
Chief Yang didn't quite understand: "Mr. He, do you really want to meet with the bandit leader? This is a bit dangerous."
"I know the danger, so I chose the meeting place outside Blade Port." He Lingchuan pointed towards the islands with his hand, "Otherwise, we will go to their lair to talk."
Master Yang asked curiously: "What's there to talk about with the robber?"
Moreover, this young man threatened that he would regret it if he didn't come. Shouldn't this usually be said by pirates?
"Didn't I say it, it's related to their future livelihood." He Lingchuan took a sip of wine and said, "Look at the situation, they will come."
