Although You Da Boss strongly suppressed the internal contradictions, he also coveted the refined salt and profiteering of the Laoshan people, and when only his henchmen were left in private, he couldn't help but confide in his heart: "Military Division, do you think we can make a fortune from Zhonglaoshan?" ”

"What? Want to pedal two boats? It's not a good job, and if you mess it up, you'll be in trouble! The kobold military advisor tugged at his chin and beard.

"Tsk, Lao Tzu is a bit greedy for salt, if this law is in our hands, not only can we make huge profits, but also can be used to bargain with the court. You said that Laoshan is right under our noses, why didn't we find out that there was such a big treasure hidden in it? ”

Every time I think of Laoshan Mountain, which is so close at hand, You Da feels a pain in his flesh. I knew that there were people on Laoshan who knew how to make refined salt, so he would have gone ashore to become a bandit. In these days, if there is no other way out, not many people want to be pirates. Being a pirate is much more difficult than being a king on the road, not only does he have a lot less oil and water than the bandits on weekdays, but sometimes it is also very dangerous.

"It's too late to say anything now, now Laoshan has already become the Wang family's bag, if the Wang family knows that we are also fighting Laoshan's idea, it will inevitably cause their dissatisfaction, and if it is not good, it will ruin the future of the big boss." The dog-headed military advisor persuaded bitterly.

"Alas, that's why I'm embarrassed, the military advisor will help me sum up and see if there is any plan for both?"

The dog-headed military master twisted his brows, racked his brains, and after some hard thinking and meditation, he finally thought of a good way to get the best of both worlds, he leaned into the ear of the master You Da and whispered: "We can send an invitation to Laoshan, invite their head of the family to the island to talk, if we can, we will cooperate with the Laoshan people." Let them provide us with a batch of refined salt every month, and we will sell the refined salt to Jiangdong by sea. ”

"In this way, even if the Wang family knows, at most they will not be happy, and in the future, the foundation of Laoshan will be in the hands of the Wang family, and we will lose a financial road, but it will not block our way forward."

"This, this, will this work? Will the Laoshan people agree? How else to hide from the people of the Wang family? For the method proposed by the military advisor, You Da was a little moved, but he just didn't know how to explain it to the Wang family.

"I can't help the people of Laoshan disagree, so it's a big deal to let the second master lead people to Laoshan for a trip. As for the Wang family, as long as Laoshan is done, I'm afraid that there will be no way to fool the Wang family? ”

……

"Brother Wei, Brother Wei, disaster is coming, disaster is coming......"

On this day, Wei Shuo was resting, Zhang Dalang suddenly broke in sweating, and before he entered the door, he heard him shouting loudly outside the door.

"Brother Zhang, don't be in a hurry, say slowly, what happened?"

"Sea ...... Pirates, pirates...... Come...... Here it ......."

"What! Pirates are coming? How many people came? What about the convoy? Zhang Erlang, they are all asleep? How can you let the pirates touch it? When Wei Shuo heard that the pirates were coming, he was immediately shocked into a cold sweat, although he had heard that there were pirates on the nearby sea on the first day he came here, but he didn't expect the pirates to come to the door so quickly.

At this time, Zhang Dalang was sweating profusely and out of breath, seeing that Wei Shuo was about to run out, he hurriedly grabbed him and explained: "Brother Wei, don't worry, listen to what I said, it was the pirate who sent someone to contact us and invite us to Xu Fudao for a while." ”

"What, what, what? Pirates invite us to visit? Are we relatives of pirates? Wei Shuo was a little puzzled and couldn't understand what the pirates were doing, he thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhang, go and call Zhu Wen and them, and we will discuss." ”

After a while, everyone came to Wei Shuo's resting place, Wei Shuo glanced at everyone and got up and said: "I just received the news that the pirates entrenched on Xu Fu Island suddenly sent someone to invite us to be guests, because this matter is too strange, so we brought everyone here to discuss." ”

"President, this matter can't be easily agreed, pirates don't have much credit, in case they have bad intentions......" Zhu Wen tried his best to prevent Wei Shuo from taking risks lightly when he heard this.

"Brother Wei, Mr. Zhu is right, that pirate must not be at ease, and he must not go! Besides, we are not soft persimmons, and the escort team has also trained for more than a month, as long as the pirate dares to make trouble, we will call him to come and go. When Zhang Erlang heard that the pirates were coming to rob, he was immediately emotional, and he couldn't wait to lead people to destroy the pirates immediately.

"No, this matter can't be rushed, the pirates are entrenched on the island, we don't have sea ships, how can the escort team get to the island? Besides, we don't know the reality of pirates, and it is a taboo to send troops rashly. And this time the pirate's style of acting is very suspicious, generally speaking, if the pirate sees something, he will just grab it, when did they become so polite? ”

"Huh! This matter is really strange, it seems that the pirates are scrupling about something...... "At this time, Zhu Wen also discovered that something was abnormal, and the pirates sent an invitation to show that they were not confident enough.

Wei Shuo glanced at Zhu Wen appreciatively, "That's right, it must be the pirates who are scrupling about something, otherwise they wouldn't just have issued invitations, maybe the pirates would have already come to the door at this time." In fact, regardless of what the pirates are afraid of, it only means that if we send someone to the island, there will be no danger. ”

Zhang Erlang resolutely disagreed with sending people to the meeting, he said with some excitement: "No, I resolutely disagree with sending people to the meeting, this is just Brother Wei's speculation, what if it is a situation deliberately set up by the pirates?" It's better to leave it to our guards. ”

"Brother Wei, Erlang's worries are also very reasonable, what if someone goes to the island and is suddenly detained by pirates?"

"Hahaha, there's nothing to worry about, since the pirates sincerely invited us to the island, it means that the other party wants to talk to us, even if the pirates want to go back, our escort team is not vegetarian, isn't it Erlang?"

"That's that, Brother Wei, don't worry, as long as you give an order, I will definitely take the escort team to set foot on Xu Fudao and destroy those pirates." Zhang Dalang patted his chest and promised.

Wei Shuo smiled and then said, "Actually, I also want to send troops to exterminate the pirates immediately, but I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." First of all, we don't have ships, pirates come and go like the wind, how can we exterminate pirates without warships? Secondly, we need to find out the details of pirates, so that we can prescribe the right medicine. ”

"Well, if you think about it, at the moment we lack ships and we don't have a navy, so even if the escort team is one and ten warriors, it can't fly across the sea, right? Therefore, if we can temporarily turn the war with the pirates through diplomatic means and buy enough time for us to develop a naval army, it is not a condition that we cannot agree to the pirates. ”

After listening to Wei Shuo's words, everyone fell silent all of a sudden, and even Zhang Erlang, the main battle faction who had been shouting just now, had nothing to say. Pirates have been entrenched in pirates all year round, and they will never be able to completely exterminate them without a navy.

"Brother Wei, now there are more and more displaced people who have defected to Laoshan, and there are many bankrupt fishermen, I think we also have to strengthen the construction of the water army?"

"Da Lang said it very well, we should indeed train the water army as soon as possible, alas, this stall is really getting bigger and bigger, and there are not enough talents! Do any of you know the daily training of the trolls? "Although Wei Shuo also wants to train the navy, he does not have the talent to understand the navy.

At this moment, everyone stared at each other and stopped talking, Wei Shuo looked around and said a little depressed: "It seems that there is still a long way to go before the navy army becomes an army, so let's pay attention to it in private first, and once you find that there are people who know the navy to defect, notify me immediately,"

After everyone left, Zhu Wen accompanied Wei Shuo, "President, do you have to go out in person this time?" Why don't you let me go in place of the president? ”

"No, since people are so sincere, we can't help but give face, right? It's not right for you to go, there are some things that I have to decide. However, if you are interested, you can accompany me on a trip. ”

"Since the president doesn't care, I'll give up my life to accompany you. To be honest, I've traveled a lot over the years, but I haven't visited a pirate's den yet, so I can't miss the opportunity this time. ”
