PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
At the end of the day, the dinghys sent out also returned one after another, and two of them found two locations that basically met Garfield's standards, and after consulting Lin Feng, Garfield ordered the "Breaking Waves" to head for these two locations.
After choosing, Garfield finally determined the address where the relay point would be established, and Lin Feng also felt that it was good after reading it. There was a deep water area where large merchant ships could be moored, and a nearby mountain forest could provide the timber needed to establish a relay point, and a sentry could be set up on a hill not high on the edge of the forest.
Now that the address has been chosen, it is natural to come up with a name, Lin Feng waved his hand at this time, it is called "Rose Relay Station", for this name, Tyranya and Garfield have no opinion, Tyranya is too lazy to complain, Garfield is not good to object, nonsense, Lord Baron named it after the clan flower, you dare to object?
Garfield then sent someone to cut down some timber and simply nail a few stakes on the beach to mark it, and now is not the time to build a relay station, not only does time not allow it, but even if they have time, they don't have that condition.
After the Breaking Wave set sail, it sailed west and then north along the coastline to avoid another storm, and its next destination was the port city of Polya in the Elven Forest, and Tyranya also needed to return to the village of Qingge once, after all, she had successfully advanced and needed to go back to report or "show off".
Although he was reluctant, after arriving in Polya, Tailanya was temporarily separated from Lin Feng. Tyranya wouldn't have known that the news of her successful promotion had already been known to the village chief grandfather and parents of Qingge Village.
Those distant relatives of the Dark Moon Kingdom, those who have the ability to send the Flying Eagle Beast Knight to the Qingge Village to report the news, and even a few "Peach Blossoms" personally rode the Flying Eagle Beast to the Elven Forest, just waiting for Tylanya to go back to the province, they took the opportunity to go on a blind date and propose marriage, well, if they can get engaged again, it will be perfect.
In Qingge Village, Tailanya regrets it now, she knew that she would not come back if she faced such a dilemma, but in front of the village chief's grandfather and parents and villagers, Tailanya didn't dare to act too "barbaric", so she dealt with them with a bitter face all day long.
When Tylanya "suffered", Lin Feng, who returned to Nanlin Island, also encountered trouble, Philip's subordinates who stayed in Golden Moon City to recruit refugees broke out with the "refugees", and the result was mutual casualties, and the reputation of the Changfan Chamber of Commerce in Jinyue Port was discredited, and the daily business has been completely stopped, and the recruitment of refugees naturally cannot continue.
Before Lin Feng asked Philip about the process of what happened, he had a guess in his heart, "This matter was almost done by someone sent by the Marquis of Jinyue, right?" And after listening to Philip tell the whole story, Lin Feng knew, "It was definitely the Marquis of Jinyue who instructed someone to do it." ”
It turned out that after the Changfan Chamber of Commerce took over the recruitment of refugees, the results were not bad at the beginning, and nearly 3,000 refugees had been sent to Nanlin Island one after another, but just when Philip wanted to increase publicity and expand the number of refugees recruited, it seemed that overnight, rumors about the Changfan Chamber of Commerce spread among the refugees.
These rumors are all about the refugees recruited by the Changfan Chamber of Commerce, and the main one is that "the Changfan Chamber of Commerce deceived everyone's trust in the name of recruiting refugees to reclaim the famine, but in fact, all the refugees recruited were sold as slaves." ”
There are even more outrageous rumors that say, "Those who are sold as slaves are still good, the Changfan Chamber of Commerce actually colludes with the ogre tribe, and those refugees are all sold by the Changfan Chamber of Commerce to the ogres and eaten." ”
As a result, the reputation of the Changfan Chamber of Commerce has been ruined, after all, no one wants to be sold as slaves or even food. That's not all, and then the Changfan Chamber of Commerce was surrounded by a large group of "relatives and friends" who came out of nowhere and were recruited refugees.
These "groups of relatives and friends" kept asking the Changfan Chamber of Commerce to send their relatives back, if they did not send them back, it means that their "relatives" have been killed, and the Changfan Chamber of Commerce must give them an explanation, and they must also atone for what they have done.
Compensation for the loss of relatives, compensation for mental injury, compensation for lost work and tea expenses caused by their siege of the Changfan Chamber of Commerce...... , in short, two words, lose money!
Of course, Philip can't pay it, not to mention that as long as he pays to one person, this rumor will be confirmed, and the "family and friend group" lions outside will not be able to come up with so much money.
Philip also thought about asking the recruited refugees to come up with a "statement", but after discussing it with Linab, he found that it was not feasible, and if he did, it would be counterproductive.
Because they know that the so-called "relatives and friends group" surrounding the Changfan Chamber of Commerce must be fake, and it will not work at all if you send back dozens or hundreds of recruited refugees, and the "relatives and friends group" will definitely deny that their "relatives" are not among them, then the question is, if they are not among them, what about that person? Or is it reminiscent of rumors.
Philip, who had no choice, had no choice but to close the door and ignore these so-called "groups of relatives and friends", he hoped that Lin Feng would come back soon to help him clean up this mess. But how could the Marquis of Golden Moon be done like this? His other order was given while Philip was trapped in the station.
So, with the acquiescence of the official inaction of Jinyuegang, and under the instigation and leadership of the "family and friend group", the Changfan Chamber of Commerce was attacked and looted by the refugees, and in the process, three of Philip's men were killed and more than a dozen were seriously injured, and many of those refugees were killed and injured.
In desperation, Philip fled from Jinyue Port with his men in a terrified boat, and the real estate such as shops and houses belonging to the Changfan Chamber of Commerce that remained in Jinyue City were also forced to give up.
After hearing this, Lin Feng was secretly angry, "The previous compromise and concession, I just don't want to delay the development of my territory because of confrontation with you, this is really a tiger who is not powerful, you really treat me as a sick cat? Kick your nose in the face, you can't do it if you don't smoke you!"
As soon as Lin Feng's mobilization and order, the naval fleet began to get busy, and the artillery, ammunition, and supplies were all equipped according to wartime standards, and all the sailors and crews on leave and the soldiers of the Marine Corps were recalled.
The "South Wind" and "Breaking Waves" also sailed with the naval fleet, and they mainly served as supply and rescue vessels. After having eight regular warships, the "Nanfeng" could not keep up with the sailing speed of the warships due to its huge size, so it was transferred to the fleet by Lin Feng as an armed supply ship.
