After the Immortal Disappeared

Chapter 931 Yue Pinghe's Wealth

The soul-catching mirror made several clicks in the owner's arms. Hey, he's got it again!

The pirates who fell into the water had to swim to the rocky beach in the face of the threat of the man-eating Yin Viper. He Lingchuan's men captured dozens of prisoners without any effort.

The sinking ship was desperate and surrendered soon after.

The surrender conditions He Lingchuan offered them were to tie up the Third Dao Master Yue Pinghe before the ship sank, otherwise everyone would be buried with him.

As soon as this condition was spoken, the other side became quiet.

Soon, roars and curses were heard on the ship.

He Lingchuan was too lazy to distinguish whose voice it was. He just put away the flute and said to the people around him:

"Okay, the battle is over."

...

Before sinking, both ships were dragged to the shore by the Yin Viper.

The defeated pirates got off the ship one by one, and then were pressed to their knees on the rocky beach, not caring about the stones hurting their feet.

Five rows of people knelt in a neat but dejected manner.

The first person to be escorted down was Yue Pinghe, who was bruised and swollen. He was covered in blood and tied up.

Qiu Hu pushed him in front of He Lingchuan and ordered him to kneel down.

Yue Pinghe gritted his teeth and didn't want to kneel, but Qiu Hu kicked him in the leg and kicked him to his knees.

Now, it was his turn to look up at the island owner He who was smiling kindly.

"Why!" Yue Pinghe spat out a mouthful of blood foam, "Why did you recruit them, but you came to me and attacked me!"

Among the three pirate gangs in Yangshan Islands, he was not the weakest one. Why was Min Tianxi recruited and Huang Zhao treated with courtesy, but he was attacked?

Yue Pinghe was indignant.

"It's because of you." He Lingchuan smiled, "You, the Third Dao Master, have a bad reputation. I asked many people and they all said you are unreliable."

For the sake of caution, he asked Rongshan disciples to gather intelligence in Blade Harbor, and the opinions they got were basically the same. Yue Pinghe was indeed a bad person. Even the pirates under Yue Pinghe complained to them that their boss was not doing his job after getting drunk in the tavern.

Why keep unreliable people and two-faced people?

If there are such people in his own camp, He Lingchuan has to keep an eye on his back.

Fusheng poked out from the void, and He Lingchuan grabbed it and made a knife flower.

As soon as the knife came out, Yue Pinghe's arrogance was gone. He chinned at Huang Zhao and hurriedly explained: "That's slander! I have always had a grudge against him, and he made up stories about me behind my back. You can't believe it."

When he was on the boat, he still had the courage to fight.

After being tied off the boat, his knees hit the cobblestones, and he knew that courage was useless. He who knows the times is a hero.

Huang Zhao did not refute, but just spat on the ground. He was standing, and Yue Pinghe was kneeling. What was the need to refute this man's words?

"Then what should I believe?" He Lingchuan asked him, "How do you show your sincerity?"

Yue Pinghe swallowed his saliva: "I have three treasures in my hands. If you accept me, the gold and silver mountains will all be yours! From now on, I will serve you and do my best for you!"

"You still have so much money hidden?" He Lingchuan was curious, "How much is it exactly?"

"Thirty thousand, no, fifty thousand taels!" Yue Pinghe heard his soft tone, so he became more sincere, "It's my savings for the past thirty years, I am willing to give it all to Master He!"

On the stone beach, the thieves looked at each other.

What the hell! They all knew that the boss saved money privately, but they didn't know that he saved so much.

Thirty or fifty thousand taels, they may not have accumulated so much money after years of robbery, how did the boss make money privately?

He Lingchuan pointed at them and said, "Do your subordinates know?"

The eyes of the crowd were indescribable, and Yue Pinghe's face was numb. He said with a stiff face, "No, they should not, not very clear."

He admitted in public that he had amassed wealth, and it would be difficult for him to lead these subordinates in the future. But at the moment, staying alive is the most important thing, and he knows the priorities.

"Well--" He Lingchuan nodded slowly, and made a turn, "Not enough."

This little money for buying life is not enough.

Yue Pinghe felt cold in his heart, and wanted to ask again, but He Lingchuan pressed his shoulder and whispered in his ear:

"You are not important, and your money is not important. But it is very important without you."

Three or five thousand taels? Ha, you are kidding.

Yue Pinghe's face turned pale in an instant.

He Lingchuan stood up, patted his shoulder, smiled at him friendly, and then a cold light flashed in his hand.

Most people have not reacted yet, but Yue Pinghe's expression is stagnant, and his eyes are full of disbelief.

Qiu Hu stood up straight:

He did not even see clearly the knife of He Lingchuan.

A few breaths later, the head rolled down the stone beach, and the blood on the neck splashed three feet.

The Third Dao leader Yue Pinghe died on his own Centipede Island.

He Lingchuan leaned his knife on the ground and said word by word: "The Third Dao pirate leader Yue Pinghe killed people and robbed money, brought disaster to the local area, and spread endless poison. He is the justice of heaven. From now on, no bandits are allowed to stir up trouble and rob ships in the Yangshan waters, otherwise, they will end up like the Yue bandits!"

The blood on the blade just ran out after the last word.

His eyes were like lightning, piercing people's hearts. The pirates who were swept by him, whether they were Min, Huang's men or the captives on the ground, bowed their heads and dared not look at him.

He Lingchuan used the power of killing to intimidate the whole audience, and then ordered people to bury Yue Pinghe's body, and then let Yin Kui tow the two ships back to the dock in the belly of the mountain for overhaul.

As a lord, he only has a few ships under his command, so they cannot be wasted.

Qiu Hu specially took off all the storage space on Yue Pinghe and handed it over to He Lingchuan.

At this point, the Yin Viper's mission was completed. It hissed a few times, splashed a few water on the sea surface, and swam towards Longji Island without looking back.

Yes, He Lingchuan had just signed an agreement with the King of Yin Viper, and in a blink of an eye he urged it to fulfill its obligations and sent Yin Viper to help him kill pirates.

Tonight, the Yin veins of the Earth Demon were gushing. These guys came here because they were full of evil spirits. They were full of energy, not as sick as they were in the past few days.

Min Tianxi and Huang Zhao looked at each other and saw the fear hidden in each other's eyes.

Although He Lingchuan did not mention it, these Yin Viper were obviously summoned by him to help. Anyone with eyes here can see it clearly.

The owner of the island could summon these evil stars in the Yangshan Islands at will, and everyone was shocked and admired them.

With the help of Yin Viper, who would dare to come to the islands in the future?

It's stable, it's stable in the future.

He Lingchuan saw the change in everyone's expression, and finally called "He Island Master" sincerely, and knew that the effect he had expected had been achieved.

If you have good cards in your hand, you should show them to the other party at the right time.

After a fierce battle, the next step is to enter the part that pirates love to see -

looting.

In fact, Sandao originally had two nests, and the other one was attacked by Yin Hu not long ago. Yue Pinghe concentrated all his manpower on Centipede Island, but was wiped out by He Lingchuan.

The pirates of Sandao also have a treasure house, which is in a cave deep in the village. It is not easy to break through the many barriers and break into here, even if it is not impregnable.

But this time He Lingchuan led the crowd to attack at night, and broke the village too quickly, so Yue Pinghe did not even have time to pack up the treasure house and fled.

He Lingchuan called Yue Pinghe's confidant and opened the treasure house in full view of everyone.

There are indeed gold, silver, jewelry, and various magic tools inside, but they can't even occupy half of the ground.

There were also dozens of pirates from the three paths at the scene. They were a little agitated at first glance, not because they were greedy, but because the amount of treasure was far less than expected.

"So little?" He Lingchuan stroked his chin, "It seems that Yue Pinghe has privately built a mouse warehouse and has been enriching himself."

He walked into the treasure cave and took Fusheng to draw a groove on the ground.

"The treasure outside the ditch line will be used as a reward for all the operators tonight. As for how to distribute it-" He glanced at Qiu Hu and the two Taoist masters, "You will report to me after consultation."

Wow, the three highest piles of treasure were drawn out, and everyone smiled at once.

Fighting to the death, isn't it just to make a living?

The new boss is not stingy, so everyone is relieved.

Next, everyone escorted the captives back, and Ding Zuodong, who came with the ship, took two newly recruited managers to count the remaining wealth in the treasure house and calculate the value of the assets on Centipede Island.

Before He Lingchuan rewarded his men, the total value of the treasures in the treasury was less than 30,000 taels, which was not as much as Yue Pinghe claimed to have.

However, Ding Zuodong found more than a dozen land deeds and business deeds in an inconspicuous box, corresponding to the real estate and shops of Mouguo, Qingguo, Daofeng Port and several other small countries.

Pirates usually robbed property, and they liked gold and silver jewelry the most, followed by goods, and the last was these contracts. Selling them was risky, the cycle was long, and the transaction was inconvenient.

But these were not a problem for He Lingchuan, and he could just hand them over to Ding Zuodong to take care of it.

In addition, the buildings on Centipede Island were not valuable, but there were seven intact regular ships, thirteen small boats, and some small boats and fishing boats in the dock in the mountain belly.

Although not all of them were cargo ships, these were also what He Lingchuan needed.

The future business and transportation of Yangshan Islands depended on shipping. How could they do without these basic means of transportation?

Ding Zuodong looked at these things and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth:

"The remaining treasures in the treasury should be more than 17,000 taels; these land deeds and shops--" Ding Zuodong hesitated for a moment. He didn't know much about the prices of goods in Mouguo and other small countries. "Let's make a conservative estimate of 9,000 taels first."

He Lingchuan hummed. It cost 80,000 taels to buy the Yangshan Islands, and 26,000 taels came back after suppressing Yue Pinghe. This deal is really good.

Now, he has more than 240,000 taels in his hand.

"And these ships..."

He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Don't count the ships. They can all be used. I won't sell them."

And there was an unexpected surprise in suppressing Yue Pinghe this time. Min Tianxi specifically reminded He Lingchuan that there were many boatmen and shipwrights on Centipede Island. Their skills in shipbuilding and repair were particularly exquisite, and they were famous throughout the Blade Port.

Since the three pirates were destroyed, these people naturally became He Lingchuan's spoils of war.

This is exactly the talent that He Lingchuan urgently needs.

He is the owner of the island, and his subordinates need a fleet. The more ships, the better, and the bigger the ships, the better.

There are actually a lot of tools for extracting palm oil on the island. In another cave in the village, there are seven or eight hundred barrels of extracted oil, and the quality is also very good. I heard that it was supposed to be delivered in five days.
