Chapter 87
Above the East China Sea, on the vast sea, the expired wooden sailing warship of the Empire was constantly exploring along the coastline to the south, and Li Yong in the captain's room looked at Wu San, who was directing the ship forward, and wondered: "Third brother, is it really okay for us to follow this coastline like this?" Are the others heading east? ”
Wu San smiled confidently and said: "Don't worry, listen to me, if you go east, it is the army of the empire, and it has basically been occupied by General Han Xin, but the South China Sea has not yet, the empire will definitely extend to the South China Sea in the future, and now this is basically a reckless area, we are here to rob, and there is still soup to drink in the East China Sea?" ”
Li Yong worried: "But this is too dangerous, after all, there is no protection from the army here, and once something happens, more than 100 of us will have to explain here." ”
Wu San threw out the revolver he had exchanged for and smiled confidently: "If I had thought the same way before, but now that we have this, it's different, with this thing, as long as we don't provoke those big forces or cultivators by dying, we are invincible among ordinary people like us, even if we encounter big tribes, we are not afraid." ”
Wu San is very satisfied with the revolver in his hand, Wu San is a famous hunter in their hometown, his hunting skills are very powerful, in fact, Wu San's favorite is a sniper rifle, but that thing is too expensive, can't afford it, the revolver is cheaper, basically ten silver coins can get one, but the cheapest sniper rifle also costs ten gold coins, and the expensive one is tens of thousands, this is still the price sold on the black market, the price sold by the empire is two percent higher, but the empire sells it safely, and it can be repaired if it is broken, The black market doesn't have this treatment.
Li Yong was still a little worried, he wanted to take a risk, but this was too risky, Wu San saw his concern and smiled: "It's okay Yongzi, believe in the third brother and me, this time we will definitely get our unexpected gains, and just record this navigation route map and hand it over to the empire, we can also make a lot of money, this is our biggest goal this time, and it doesn't matter if we catch the slave or not." ”
Li Yong's heart relaxed a lot when he heard this, and then he wondered: "Is the navigation line map very valuable?" ”
Wu San smiled: "Don't you understand this? The empire pays a high price, as long as you can receive a nautical chart with a price, the empire will not be stingy, seeing that the slave does not, he can draw, it is a high-pointed slave, but I spent a full ten gold coins to buy it, just to record our routes and maps. ”
Li Yong looked at the young man in his twenties that Wu San bought, he was not tall and had no strength, when Li Yong bought him before, he felt that Wu San had lost money, but now it is different, this is simply the God of Wealth.
......................................................................................................................................................................................
Li Yong walked over and saw that the slave was writing in a real notebook, and there was a nautical chart drawn underneath, which he couldn't read, but he knew that as long as this thing was handed over to the empire, they would get a large bonus.
Li Yong came to Wu San's front and said excitedly: "Third brother, you still have a way, this time we will make a profit without losing money." Hahaha..."
Wu San was also very happy, and then said seriously: "Yongzi, brother wants to discuss something with you." ”
Li Yong replied: "What do you say, how are you brothers, don't be so polite." ”
Wu Sandao: "If I can make enough money this time, I am ready to invest all this harvest, I am not ready to divide the money, we must grow, we have to buy ships, we need more manpower, and the gun must be changed, although the revolver is good, but the range is too short, it must be replaced with a rifle." ”
Li Yong was silent for a while and then smiled: "This is a good thing, brother, you are right, I support, I also have ideas, I want to set up a slave market, we sell slaves ourselves." ”
Wu San frowned and said, "I don't know how to do business, you decide for yourself, I trust you." ”
Li Yong said happily: "Don't worry, brother, catch prey, I'm not as good as you in management, but when it comes to doing business, this is not difficult for me, you just wait and see." ”
At this time, a slave ran over and said, "Master, I found a merchant ship ahead." ”
Li Yong and Wu San were slightly stunned, and the two hurriedly came to the deck to look at the merchant ship.
Wu San said: "Yongzi, that seems to be the merchant ship of the Chu State, right?" ”
Li Yong confirmed: "That's right, third brother, that's the merchant ship of Chu State." ”
Wu San saw that the cold weapon on the merchant ship was still backward, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart, he looked at Li Yong beside him, and from Li Yong's eyes, he saw the same idea as him, that is, greed.
At this time, Li Yong also looked over, and after the two glanced at each other, Wu San said, "Have an idea?" ”
Li Yong was silent for a while and said, "Third brother, don't say it, I do have ideas, but will something happen like this?" ”
Wu San shook his head and said: "Don't talk about you, I also have it but I can't, we have to develop here, the rabbits don't eat the grass on the edge of the nest, suppress your thoughts." ”
Li Yong took a deep breath and said, "I know, brother, I listen to you." ”
The two boats stopped at each other when they passed by, and Wu San asked with a smile, "Hey, brother, where are you going?" ”
The people on the merchant ship of Chu looked at these strangers curiously and asked, "We are preparing to return to China, who are you, why haven't I seen you?" ”
Wu San smiled and said: "Oh, we went out to sea to fish and encountered wind and waves, lost our way, and the chart was lost due to some accidents, can you give me a chart?" ”
The caravan of the Chu State did not suspect him and said, "This is nothing. Then he handed them a chart.
After the man gave Wu San a copy of the chart, he looked at their boat and wondered, "Why doesn't your fishing boat have fishing nets or anything?" ”
Wu San said with a smile: "There is no way, when there is wind and waves, most of the fishing equipment has fallen into the sea, and now there are only some fishing nets left, which can only be received in the cabin, so as not to encounter wind and waves again, then we will suffer heavy losses this time, and it is safer to take it out at the location." ”
Although the man had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask too much, everyone said so, and that's it.
......................................................................................................................................................................................
Back in the cabin, Wu San opened the chart and was immediately happy, with this chart, their operation could be twice the result with half the effort, Li Yong was also very happy and said: "Brother, you still have a way, you can easily cheat a chart." ”
Wu San said with a smile: "Everyone eats this meal, more is better than less, they will naturally give it if they can give it, don't you see that although they don't have weapons like us, but those people are all strong, they are all doing illegal things." ”
Li Yong was slightly stunned and said, "I didn't notice this, brother means that they are not businessmen?" ”
Wu San replied: "Anyway, it's not a legitimate businessman, okay, don't think about it, let's see what instructions this map can give us, you see there is an island if you go south here, let's go there." ”
Li Yong nodded after seeing this, and then Wu San commanded the ship to move towards the nearest island.
Three days later.
Li Yong and Wu Sanjiu saw the island, Wu San ordered to land, and then more than 100 people got off the boat, Wu San led people to inspect the island, while Li Yong took some people to sort out supplies and set up camps.
It didn't take long for Wu San to return to the camp with people.
Li Yong hurriedly came over and said, "How is the third brother?" Is there anything on this island that is not there? ”
Wu San said happily: "Yongzi, we didn't come in vain this trip, there is a small tribe on this island, and there are about 500 people in the tribe. ”
Li Yong suddenly became excited and said: "Really, hehe, that's really good, third brother, what should we do now, should we do it now?" ”
Wu San shook his head and said, "Let the brothers eat first, raise their spirits, let's do it at night, and deal with the guards first, these natives basically can't run." ”
Li Yong did not doubt that he hurriedly let people eat some dry food, and then let everyone sleep, although these people are also slaves, but they have followed Li Yong for many years, and they all know what they are doing this time, as long as they follow Li Yong to do a good job, with the laws of Qin, they can become free people as long as they earn enough contribution points, although they still have to work under Li Yong at that time, but Li Yong must also give them corresponding rewards, and things like capturing slaves are even more great things for them, Because the contribution points of catching three slaves can get them out of slavery and become free people.
So this time, these people are working very hard, and they are all holding their breath in their hearts.
