Li Bin walked to the construction site of the Suzaku Hall and asked the craftsmen who were working on it: "When will the Suzaku Hall be completed?" ”

"Two or three days if it's slow, and one or two days if it's fast." The craftsman responded.

The day of completion is just around the corner, and Li Bin doesn't say anything more, and waits patiently for a few days to see the difference.

"Master, you are here, Pegasus has reported that there is an urgent matter at the port and that Master needs to deal with it." Wei Yawei looked anxious, sweating profusely and ran to say.

"Did you say what it was?" Li Bin asked.

"The people who came just said that the shipping route was blocked by attack, and most of the trading merchant ships could not enter the port and berth."

"Got it, I'll go to the port to deal with it." Li Bin frowned when he heard this, it is not a trivial matter that the shipping route is blocked, this will cause a direct and devastating blow to the economic lifeline of the Futu Gate, and overseas trade is currently the bulk of the income of the Futu Gate.

Li Bin turned around and performed the Spiral Nine Shadows Light Gong Qi Flying Technique, and with a "whoosh" sound, it disappeared, and the craftsmen on the Vermilion Bird Hall construction site were stunned, they were all alone, and they didn't disappear in the blink of an eye?

"That person can't be a ghost, right?"

"Ghost your head, I really see that person, it is Grandpa Li of Futu Gate."

"Grandpa Li came and went without a trace, it shouldn't be a fairy, right?"

Craftsmen, you and I talked nonsense, Li Bin's spiral nine shadows light skills they have seen there, and they were all bluffed at the first acquaintance.

Li Bin performed the Spiral Nine Shadows Qi Flying Technique, and during this period, he only landed less than ten times to collect qi before he arrived at the port. Two hundred miles, less than two hours have arrived, much faster than riding a horse, only more time than driving the great white eagle.

Li Bin directly asked the disciples guarding the port to call the port manager in charge of the management of the Futumen port, and heard that the master Li Bin was there in person. The disciple in charge of the port immediately rushed to Li Bin with the summoned disciple.

"The master is coming, and the disciple is far away." The person who came bent his knee on one foot, bowed respectfully in front of Li Bin and said.

"Excuse me, get up and speak, what's the matter with the blocked shipping route?" Li Bin asked directly.

"Back to the master's words, the local fishermen who went out to sea to fish yesterday came back and said it. It is said that there are more than a dozen large and small sea boats on the sea 100 miles away from the port, and as long as they see a sea ship passing by, they will take the initiative to intercept and attack, and sometimes even small fishing boats will not let go. ”

"Did you send someone to find out? Who is the other party? What exactly do you want to block the shipping lanes? ”

"Master, the people sent out yesterday haven't returned to Hong Kong yet."

"You're a disciple recruited from the capital, right?" Li Bin vaguely remembered the disciple in charge of the port affairs of the Futu Sect in front of him, and asked casually.

"Yes, Master, the disciple's hometown is in the capital. It was Uncle Zhang who saw that I was willing to endure hardships and that I was okay, so he appointed me to take charge of port affairs. ”

"What's your name?"

"Disciple Zhou Zhengyi."

"How long will it take for the fleet of the Futumen ocean trade to return to port?"

"Master, it is estimated that I can return to Hong Kong in about half a month."

Li Bin pondered: "Half a month! Time is running out, and this unknown force blocking the port shipping route must be resolved, otherwise the loss of Futumen will be great, and the ocean-going trade fleet will return with trade proceeds, not to mention a few million taels. ”

"You go to the shipyard and have a look. There are no ships that have been built and can go to sea. Equip me with a crew, and I will go to sea myself. Li Bin ordered.

"Master, the person sent out to investigate hasn't come back yet, aren't you waiting?" Zhou Zhengyi asked.

"Don't wait, this head wants to see who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head!" Li Bin was determined to make a quick decision. Solve the problem yourself.

After a stick of incense, Zhou Zhengyi ran back out of breath and said loudly: "Master, the foreman of the shipyard said that there is a new sea ship that has been tested at the harbor, and he immediately organized a team of sailing experienced crew members to board the ship. ”

"Okay." Li Bin immediately strode towards the harbor.

I just happened to meet Master Tang, the master craftsman of the Futumen Shipyard who came with a team of strong young men.

"Grandpa Li. What are you going to do when you go to sea this time? Master Tang asked about the purpose of going to sea.

"Sweep away this strongman who is blocking the shipping route, and no one is allowed to be wild and presumptuous on the territory of Futu Gate!" Li Bin replied loudly.

Li Bin's words frightened Master Tang, and Master Tang leaned closer and said: "Don't hide it from Grandpa Li, the crew on the ship this time is a rookie who has just been recruited and trained for less than a month, and naval warfare is not good at all." I wonder if Grandpa Li has brought other capable people on board to participate in the operation? ”

"It's gone, it's just me!" Li Bin said categorically.

"Huh!? Just Grandpa Li, you're alone? This joke is absolutely unavoidable, the naval battle is extremely dangerous, if it loses, the whole army will be killed, and there will be no place to run. Master Tang saw that Li Bin was alone, his head was like a rattle, and he said that he would not agree to go to sea to fight.

"Master Tang, I'm not consulting with you, I'm giving orders! This is not allowed for bargaining! Let's do it! Li Bin couldn't help but say, grabbed Master Tang, and directly mentioned the ship.

"Give the order to sail to sea!" Li Bin ordered.

Seeing that Li Bin's face was resolute and resolute, not like a joke, Master Tang had to sigh and shout loudly: "Zuo full rudder, turn the bow of the ship, and go to sea!" ”

"Left full rudder, go to sea!"

The ship began to make a slow U-turn and slowly sailed away from the harbor.

"The wind is westward, raise the mainsail! Tail sail! ”

"Mainsail, tailsail raised!" The crew of the ship meticulously steered the ship forward according to Master Tong's instructions.

"Master Tang, is this the second sea ship to be launched in the shipyard?"

"Back to Grandpa Li, it's the second sea ship to be launched."

"Is there any improvement on the second sea ship compared to the first?"

"The hull is stronger, the wave resistance is better, the balance is better, but the cargo hold is still the same as the first one, it hasn't changed. On the basis of the second one, we plan to increase the volume of the ship, expand the cargo hold and crew living space, and make the sea vessel more suitable for ocean trade. Master Tang reported the shipyard construction plan to Li Bin.

"Very well, then I'll wait for the news of your success." Li Bin encouraged.

"Master Tang! There is an unidentified ship coming towards us at a fast speed! The crew member on the watchtower shouted a loud alarm.

"There are three of them in the left vertigo! They want to surround us! The seamen on the watchtower shouted urgently.

Li Bin laughed when he heard the report: "It's just right to come, tell the crew, pretend to turn around and run away, but the speed of the boat should be slowed down and let them get closer!" Li Bin ordered.

"Right full rudder! Turn! ”

"Half the ship!" Although Master Tang didn't understand why Li Bin did this, he had to say loudly according to the order.

"Grandpa Li, the sea ships outflanked by the other party on the left and right will quickly catch up with us." Master Tang said with some fear, he knew that Li Bin's martial arts were powerful, but on the sea was different from on land. (To be continued.) )
