The sun is rising and the golden sun shines on the green island, and the Hallasan Mountain in the middle of the island leaves a huge shadow in the west, but most of the place is still shrouded in sunlight.

The bay in the southwest is also bathed in the morning sun, and the three-masted gunboats and big black boats with black shadows sail across the blue waters towards the bay and slowly dock at the pier.

The diligent workers were already moving bricks to repair the city walls, and the original inhabitants were so shocked when they saw the huge ship and the heavy artillery on it that suddenly appeared in the harbor that they had forgotten to work.

Their proprietor is undoubtedly mysterious, with many powerful craftsmen and strong guards, as well as inexhaustible materials, and now there are unimaginable ships.

The indigenous people, led by Park Hyun, are even clearer in their hearts: as long as they follow in the footsteps of this mysterious owner, their lives will definitely get better and better.

"Don't be stunned, get to work! It's the high-level of the United Business Group who came over today, if you offend them, Lao Tzu will make you unable to eat and walk around! The leader of the overseer warned Park Hyun and the others who were stunned.

The indigenous people led by Park Hyun learned that it was a big man who was there, and even though the few people who usually liked to be lazy became honest, they were even more diligent in expressing themselves.

The morning sun shone on the white canvas of the ship's mast, and as the ship anchored on the pier, the last canvas was also folded, and only a seagull stood on it to rest.

At the same time, the group had already arrived at the dock and waited, squinting at the three-masted gunboat docking.

Liang Yi, a salt lord by origin, was sent by the headquarters last year to work on the construction of a new wharf and a new city after completing gold exploration and road construction work in Luzon.

In July last year, Lin Haoran reached a cooperation intention with North Korean worker Cao Counselor Chen Yu, and then the joint business group also began to promote the entry into North Korea according to Lin Haoran's instructions.

However, we have to admit that the situation in North Korea is not much better than that in Nanyang. Even if the United Merchants had enough goods, North Korea simply did not have enough gold and silver to trade, and it was no wonder that it could not come up with seven hundred taels of silver that year.

The United Merchant Group had taken a fancy to the livestock products of Jeju Island, and with a large annual order of 10,000 sheep, 1,000 cattle and 100 Mongolian horses, they had become the king's guests.

As for this undeveloped land in the southwest of Jeju Island, just as Zhu Yuanzhang looked down on the entire Jeju Island back then, the only thing that the Joseon king could see was the pastures in the west, and he was naturally happy to allocate it to a very large joint merchant group.

Liang Yi came here with a team of 3,000, plus a group of indigenous people recruited, and it was here that he began to build a large number of buildings. In the supply of materials from the United Business Group, the project is progressing smoothly.

Thanks to the experience gained in the construction of the United City in Luzon, and the 3,000 craftsmen brought with it, the new city will be officially completed in a few days.

It was on this day that the United Merchant Fleet officially settled in this United Second City, and their United Merchant Group was stuck here like nails. Even if the king of Joseon wanted to uproot them again, it would not be an easy task.

In fact, the North Korean garrison here was less than the 1,700 garrisons of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Jeju Mu had less than 1,000 people, and its combat strength was even more in shambles.

"Director Liang, which fleet will the headquarters send over this time?" Standing next to Liang Yi was a personable young man, who was Li Yunhu's nephew Li Guozhi, but asked curiously.

Although he studied in Guozi for a few years, he was not the material for reading after all, so he entered the mall very early. Relying on his intelligence and hard work, he soon became the right-hand man of Uncle Li Yunhu.

Last year, he was favored by Lin Haoran and directly entrusted with the important task of envoy to North Korea. Because of his outstanding performance during his mission to North Korea, especially when he took out this land, he has become the manager of the development department of the East China Sea Division of the United Business Group.

Liang Yi is the old man of the United Business Group, and when he saw the majestic word "Ba" next to the United Banner, he responded with certainty: "United Second Fleet!" ”

"If I remember correctly, the Second Fleet is in charge of the Leizhou-Siam route, who is their chief captain?" Li Guozhi's face showed a thoughtful expression, but he looked at Liang Yi and inquired.

Liang Yi squinted his eyes and looked at the deck, and also revealed: "The chief captain of the United Second Fleet is Hai Batian, and he was originally a famous pirate leader in western Guangdong. When he was absorbed by Lord Lin, he originally had the opportunity to serve as the deputy Qianhu of Leizhou Wei, but he was unwilling to submit to others, but he chose to do things for the United Business Group, and then he has been in charge of the United Second Fleet! ”

"Is he strong?" Li Guozhi's eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately continued to inquire seriously.

Liang Yi turned his head slightly, and said proudly: "Since he joined the United Business Group, whether it is against the pirates of the South Seas or against the fleet of the Franc Machine, the Second Fleet has never been defeated. When the prince of Champa wanted to loot our goods, after he killed all the pirates, he also personally led a thousand people to follow the prince of Champa into Champa, and killed the prince of Champa in the street, and the prince of Champa apologized to him for this! ”

"This ......" Li Guozhi listened to the glorious deeds of this fierce man, and couldn't help but swallow and spit secretly, and looked up at the bow of the ship with awe.

The golden sun shines here, and the entire dock and ships are exposed to the morning sun.

A sturdy middle-aged man came down the boat ladder, his skin was dark, his thick eyebrows and big eyes, his face was sharp and angular, and the scar on his forehead was very clear, and the whole person was like an axe.

Time has not annihilated the ambition of this pirate leader, and the wealth accumulated over the years has long been enough for him to enjoy his old age like Shen Liuye and Zhao Fugui, but he still chooses to lead his subordinates here.

Hai Batian's figure was very tall, his shadow was very long, and he walked down from the ship against the rising sun.

"I've seen Captain Sea!"

Liang Yi and Li Guozhi were shocked by this murderous aura, and saluted in awe.

Hai Batian faced these two juniors, and responded with a straight face: "The three of us have their own division of labor, you don't need to be too polite!" It's just that this time the three of us are shouldering the burden of opening up the East China Sea, and the old man will definitely go all out, but you can't hold back, otherwise don't blame me for turning the sky! ”

Liang Yi had dealt with Hai Batian before, and he was not too surprised by this, and his face showed a bitter look.

Li Guozhi knew that this was more aimed at him, after all, he really hadn't come up with convincing results, so he responded respectfully: "Keep in mind!"

"Let's not delay any longer, let's find a place to sit down and have a good discussion!" Hai Batian looked up at the new city, and immediately made a decision directly.

Liang Yi and Li Guozhi glanced at each other, seeing that Hai Batian was so impatient, they reluctantly followed Hai Batian into the city together.

In the joint business group, it has long been divided into three parts: daily management, diplomatic negotiation and security.

Although the three of them belong to the same joint business group, they have their own division of labor. Haibatian is responsible for the security of the East China Sea; Liang Yi is now in charge of the construction project, but is likely to become the manager of the new city; Li Guozhi was in charge of the diplomatic affairs of the United Business Group in the East China Sea.
