Chapter 13: Before the Storm
Seeing that his prestige value plummeted by five hundred, although Xiao Li was distressed, he didn't care too much, after all, there is only going to be out.
Moreover, this is not a gratuitous effort, since the alliance with the five nearby islands, the mutant monster fish they catch will be transported to Chongtian Island to exchange for various necessities such as food.
A mutant monster fish has two bags of grain, no matter how he calculates, he only makes money and does not lose.
After forming an alliance, Chongtian Island will not only be able to get the mutant monster fish they caught, but even the resources and talents on their island will be lost to Chongtian Island.
However, compared to Sea Shark Island, the vampire of Chongtian Island is obviously much kinder, which is enough for them to confront Sea Shark Island for this benefit.
"Calculating the time, Jiang Yi almost knows about this, but how will he deal with it?" Xiao Li lowered his head and thought about it, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If he can bear this, then he can only helplessly attack, but this is too risky, even if he has a crossbow, it is still difficult to land on the beach." ”
Sea Shark Island has four or five thousand islanders, while his Chongtian Island only has one or two hundred people, and the number of ships is limited, even if he can lead a crossbow team with advanced weapons, I am afraid he will not be able to land Sea Shark Island.
But if he allowed Sea Shark Island to cross the ocean and attack Chongtian Island, he would be able to lead a crossbow team to stop them at sea, leaving them with no return.
......
At the pier of Sea Shark Island, a middle-aged man with dark skin hurriedly disembarked and headed straight towards a towering mountain in the middle of Sea Shark Island.
There is a castle on the hill that is the capital of Sea Shark Island.
Inside the castle, a middle-aged man in his forties was pacing back and forth in the hall with a distressed expression, irritable.
Fortunately, the spies he had sent out to find out the news returned.
"The island owner, I have inquired clearly. A dark-skinned middle-aged man ran into the hall panting, took a deep breath and began to report the situation.
At first, he just listened expressionlessly, but when he heard that Rhys betrayed Sea Shark Island and joined Chongtian Island, Jiang Yi couldn't hold his breath anymore, and his right hand slammed towards the table below.
Rumble!
The entire table shattered, revealing the aura that belonged to the middle level of the spirit disciples, making the spies on the side tremble.
"The noble disciple from the mainland also brought an advanced weapon, the crossbow?" Jiang Yi took a deep breath, quite puzzled, he racked his brains and couldn't understand why that noble disciple came to this island where birds don't.
Is it for the mutant monster fish?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it became, and he fell silent, looking for a way to cope.
After a long time, there were a few more figures in the empty hall.
Jiang Yi landed on the main seat, looked at the few people standing in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "How are things going?"
An old man replied: "Island owner, except for Xiangtian Bird Island, the islands in the southwest and northwest have been negotiated, but now the mutant monster fish are ravaging and attacking fishing boats, and they are reluctant to go to sea. ”
Jiang Yi glanced at him fiercely when he heard this, and the old man looked panicked, and immediately changed his words, "If you give me thirty militiamen, I promise to complete the task." ”
The rest of the people also began to report the situation, and seeing that everything was going well, Jiang Yi rarely showed a smile on his face.
"Yes, the lord of this island has clear rewards and punishments, as long as you work well, your share of remuneration will not be less. After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he looked at a fair-skinned young man in front of him and asked, "What do you say on Kaiyun Island?
The young man frowned slightly, and said with a displeased expression: "Uncle, they are clearly lions with big mouths, asking us to sacrifice a hundred mutant monster fish every month. ”
"Don't worry, they won't get any of them. Jiang Yi's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, and he said with a sneer: "You pushed this matter to that noble disciple of Chongtian Island, just say that the Boli Sea area was interfered by the family behind him, and not only brought a crossbow team of hundreds of people, but also shot and killed many people from our Sea Shark Island." ”
The young man sneered and replied, "Uncle, I know what to do. ”
Jiang Yi nodded with relief, and then looked at a middle-aged man in armor, "Put the dock under control, and no ocean-going vessel is allowed to go out and block the news." ”
"The subordinates obeyed. The middle-aged man agreed, and then exited the house.
After everyone left, Jiang Yi sat on a wooden chair carved from fine yellow wood, took out a bag of barbecued and sealed dried mutant fish from his pocket, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
With a trace of energy entering his body, his eyes were full of mockery, what aristocratic disciple is still vulnerable in the face of strength, as long as he cultivates further, he will all have to die!
......
Chongtian Island, Xiao Li was desperately eating dried strange fish, he knew the importance of cultivation, so he didn't fall for a moment, and his mouth kept chewing.
As for the false identity of the noble disciple, he can be deceived for a while, but he can't be deceived for a lifetime.
Even if his identity is true, then Jiang Yi is willing to stop there?
Xiao Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Maybe when Jiang Yi's cultivation reaches a certain point, it will be the time to start a war." ”
Regarding the way of fighting, Xiao Li had rehearsed it many times in his mind, just waiting for the main master to come to the door.
It remains to be seen whether the Iron Body will be able to stop the sharp bolts.
Xiao Li put the brush into the pen holder, got up and stretched, and walked towards the outside of the house.
Outside the house, the entire Chongtian Island changes day by day, and in less than half a month, there are many more novelties on the island.
Xiao Li walked down a street paved with sand and stones, and the islanders on the street saluted, showing great respect for the young owner, who might not be on the verge of life and death like the other islands.
They have also heard about what happened in the Poli Sea recently, under the attack of mutant monster fish, countless boats capsized, and there were many casualties, and the people of the entire Poli Sea were struggling to survive, even the most prosperous Sea Shark Island, they could not escape.
But in this atmosphere, Chongtian Island is a clear stream, since there are whaling guns and fishing nets, the islanders do not need to go into the water, as long as they see mutant strange fish, they can attack from the boat.
Although there have been incidents of capsizing, no one has ever been killed.
Xiao Li walked around, and finally came to the humble dock, and saw that they had already set up the keel of the ship, and couldn't help but admire a few times.
Ivy trotted forward, saluted Xiao Li, and then began to report the progress of the work, "Lord Xiao Li, the keel of the ship has been laid, and it will only take ten days to build the ship." ”
"Yes. Xiao Li nodded, "This is only the first one, there will definitely be many ships built in the future, you have to learn to divide the division of labor and arrange the work, and strive to make it like an assembly line that can be distributed and assembled." ”
"As for the manpower, you can talk to Harriman and ask him to send more men. ”
