Chapter 333: Y( ̄∀ ̄)Y and Convex
After some preparation, Lu Ye and the others sat in the captain's room, watching the Seagull set sail.
Supplies or something, will go to the Red Island to make up for it.
Originally, the Red Island was just a small island with no name, until one day the Lord of the Red Island appeared on it and established a port.
This originally nameless island quickly appeared in the public's field of vision.
The reason why it is called Red Island is because there were once pirates who saw the interests of trade on the island, seven or eight ships were united, and thousands of people attacked the island together, burned and plundered, but in the end, the pirates were all wiped out on the island, and the thousands of pirate captives captured alive were tied up one by one and thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
The blood flowed out and attracted a lot of fish, and the sea was almost red.
Since then, Red Island has taken on this name, and the surrounding area of the island has become extremely rich in fish, but few people go to fish.
It is rumored that the souls of 8,672 people, whether they died in that battle, whether they were pirates or the original forces of the island, still linger at the bottom of the sea, and from time to time people can still hear the sound of fighting under the sea.
As for the Lord of the Red Island, it is very mysterious, others only know that the Lord of the Red Island has hands and eyes, has various channels, can get many special goods, and also has various channels, from the big nobles to the big pirates, as long as you can afford the price, you can help you contact each other.
I don't know how many collaborations have been carried out under the witness of the Red Island, as the master of the Red Island, who is in charge of all this, can always sit in this position safely, it can only be said that his ability is very powerful.
Hongdao said that it was offshore, but this proximity was also relative, the Seagull used a third-generation steam engine, and the power was still too low compared to the fourth-generation steam engine, but it was also very fast, even so, the ship sailed for two days before seeing Hongdao.
Countless ships came and went, a scene of prosperity, and the Seagull also entered a dock, the ship needed to be maintained, and there were too many things to buy.
The Seagull was tasked with the purchase of the Jiaolong and other frigates, because they had been delayed at sea for a long time because they had found a group of fish larvae.
Of course, there is no problem in handing over all the general procurement to the first officer, but the real thing is to purchase weapons.
As a weapon at sea, the steam cannon has been studied by various countries, and it has always been forbidden to flow out, and occasionally there is a small amount of outflow, which has achieved the prestige of some small pirates.
Red Island has steam cannons for sale, which everyone knows, but there have been few of them, because most of the others don't have that face.
Nowadays, the forces on the sea seem to be intricate, but after sorting them out, you will find that the big forces have always been various countries, and every famous pirate is either a white glove cultivated by the country or a big noble, or is recruited by these forces halfway.
These forces have access to weapons, and they do not need to take risks to come to Hongdao, only some small forces at sea who are helpless will come here to buy weapons.
For these forces, Hongdao is more of an intermediary platform for themselves to cooperate with other forces.
Lu Ye's fleet is just in a state of not being up or down, let's say it is strong, the whole fleet is more inclined to commercial ships, it is really strong in the commercial field, but in the war at sea, it is actually not as good as a big pirate.
Let's say it's not strong, the viscount title inherited by Lu Ye is a signboard in Hailan Country, and it can borrow a lot of power.
It can only be said that Zhou Liu's starting point was overtaking in corners, and he became famous by catching fish, and his own power at sea was all in serious business behavior, and when he was doing business, Zhou Liu was able to call a warship to escort him, even if he was robbed, there were warships to help.
But when doing unserious things, Zhou Liu's shortcomings were exposed.
It is precisely this kind of situation that makes Lu, who inherited everything from Zhou Liu, also need to come to Hongdao.
When he walked out of the dock, Lu also saw a group of people walking into the dock next to him, those people were in good shape, many of them were naked, and they were covered with scars, as if they were glorious.
Their eyes seemed to be able to cut off two taels of flesh from the people around them at any time, and most of them did not leave the handle of the knife hanging from their waists, and they could draw their weapons at any time to fight a big battle.
Pirates, and great pirates.
There is no ban on pirates on Red Island, but there is a rule that no large-scale brawls can break out on Red Island.
Lu Ye glanced at the one-eyed dragon in the lead, and found that many of the other party's subordinates looked at him with playful eyes, as if to say that this boy with fine skin and tender meat also dares to go to sea, if I meet an uncle, it is better to let me be happy.
Lu Ye didn't pay attention to this, and under the leadership of Bai Xuan, he walked towards the island.
Bai Xuan told Lu Ye in his ear the identity of the party, the big pirate Wang Luo, started with a fishing boat, more than a dozen fishermen rushed to a merchant ship and killed several times their guards, successfully obtained the first pot of gold, and now has a fleet, a total of four ships and a thousand people.
These thousands of people are all people who can pick up swords and fight, and they are very fierce.
Lu also nodded in understanding, squinted his eyes and looked back, smiled, then coughed twice, and saw the Lord of Red Island with a cane in hand.
This is a very Sven man, if you ignore his identity, you will even think that he is a nobleman or a scholar, in short, he does not look like the head of a gray force.
"The famous Viscount Tinghai, I am fortunate to be happy. The Lord of the Red Island had a very gentle smile on his face, and his manners and conversations were very in line with etiquette: "Contemptible Huang Duo." ”
"Lu Ye. When Lu Ye held his hand, the other hand holding the dragon tiger head crutch moved.
Naturally, he let go of his hand, and Lu also began to talk to Huang Duo, regarding the recent changes in the situation at sea, Huang Duo behaved very clearly, he could say a thing or two about the actions of large and small forces, but he didn't say anything about the real inside.
As a result, Lu Ye seems to know the situation at sea very well, but in fact he only understands the "sea", and the turbulent undercurrent under the sea surface is not revealed at all.
"It's not a secret, this time I came to Mr. Huang Duo to ask for something. After talking for a while, Lu also went straight to the point.
Huang Duo also showed seriousness in a timely manner, making you feel that he was listening carefully, and he would seriously consider what you said.
"This time our fleet encountered a group of Krakens, a batch of important cargo stranded on an island, so we wanted to seek some firepower. "Lu Ye is telling the truth, giving Huang Duo the feeling that he is a boy next door, and he will hand over his unreserved trust to you, which is true and unfalse.
Looking at the sincerity revealed in Lu Ye's half-squinted eyes, Huang Duo was slightly stunned, and then became enthusiastic and said: "How much is needed, if it is not easy to do, there is also a fleet in Xia, which can help." ”
"No, no, no. Lu Ye was like a shy teenager, and he was a little embarrassed by the enthusiasm of others and hurriedly said: "About one hundred and fifty steam cannons are needed, and the newer the model, the better." ”
"That's not a small amount!" Huang Duo's expression changed.
"I'm willing to use my title as a guarantee!" Lu Ye hurriedly said, as if he was very afraid of Huang Duo's refusal.
"Hiss......" Huang Duo stood up and began to pace, his brows furrowed, and only after half a sound did he make up his mind and said: "Don't hide it from Mr. Lu, I do have a batch of steam cannons on the island, and ordinary people don't dare to sell them if they buy them, even if Mr. wants them, I feel a little uncertain." ”
"In this case, Mr. will sign and write a note and give it to me, and I will return it to Mr. after the money and goods are cleared. ”
"Viscount can't!" Bai Xuan, who was on the side, hurriedly stood up and objected, if this signature was given, it would be a matter of giving someone a handle, if Huang Duo really wanted to attack Lu Ye, this signature would allow those veteran nobles to grab the handle.
"It's okay, Uncle Bai. Lu Ye was like a teenager on top, and he grabbed Bai Xuan.
In the end, the two sides reached an agreement on how many fish coins to buy these steam cannons and Ruo** shells, as well as some steam guns.
After Lu also signed, the cannon began to be transported to the Seagull.
Huang Duo didn't even call Mr. anymore, he called him brother very affectionately, and then asked Lu Ye to take Lu Ye to the island to play circles.
When Lu Ye went to sea the next day, Huang Duo also asked people to send it.
Back in his office, the people around Huang Duo asked suspiciously, "Then what kind of goods did Viscount Hai lose?
"I don't know, but this time Viscount Tinghai is estimated to suffer a big loss. Huang Duo said with a smile: "I am willing to sell so many steam cannons this time, Fan Mingming, that old guy has a lot of strength before. ”
"It's still a Tainian ......" Huang Duo took out the signature, and the words stopped, and the signature on it didn't know when it had become a Y( ̄??  ̄)Y。
Closing his eyes and opening them again, the note in Huang Duo's hand was crumpled into a ball (艹艹艹): "I was tricked." ”
Thinking of this, Huang Duo hurriedly closed his eyes to communicate something, his face was gloomy and terrifying, anyone who dared to play with him would have to pay the price, he had already left a mark on Na Lu Ye, a weak teenager, he would make it difficult for the other party to want to die.
On the other side, in the captain's room, Lu Ye sat on the main seat, the head of the dragon and tiger on the cane in his hand had disappeared, and turned into a monster and appeared on Lu Ye's shoulder, and in the mouth of the yin and yang changes, there was a strange breath.
Huang Duo is a person with extraordinary abilities, which is not unexpected by Lu Ye, and judging from this wisp of breath, his extraordinary ability is more inclined to the application of yin qi, and most of it has something to do with soul-like bodies.
Thinking of some rumors of Hongdao, Lu Ye smiled slightly, and roughly knew what Huang Duo's hole cards were, speaking of which, Dragon and Tiger Waidan had never eaten a big meal since he was born, and he would have a chance right away.
At this time, Bai Xuan hurriedly broke in, looking very nervous: "There is a ship following us, the one who comes is not good!"
