Chapter 118: We Can Get It Ourselves
When the silver-white moonlight fell slowly, hundreds of nobles and businessmen had gathered on the white and soft sand of Baiwan Island, and with a rare smile, Speaker Federer walked up to the makeshift high platform to warmly welcome the guests and expect them to have a beautiful and unforgettable night.
Before he could finish his speech, Tulu, who had already aimed at the hearty food, had a green light in his eyes, and plunged into the encirclement of caviar and barbecue, and only a few seconds later, at least six plates were swept away, which made the surrounding noblewomen not only surprised, but also couldn't help but feel pity, woo woo, it's so pitiful, is it true that Lin often abuses this poor cow?
Christine was dressed in a red backless dress, standing side by side with a night song in a black evening dress, like beautiful flowers blooming side by side, one was as enthusiastic as fire and the other was charming and enchanting, which immediately attracted the men around her, Lin Taiping looked at it very seriously with red wine, and suddenly felt that he should declare his sovereignty, although he did not have any sovereignty......
But soon, he didn't need to hesitate, because after the two beautiful royal sisters glanced at each other, they suddenly stretched out their slender hands and pulled his arm around their soft waist.
"Don't get me wrong, I just want to get rid of those guys, by the way...... This is a New Year's gift for you. Christine replied, although when she said this, she actually showed a little flush and diverted her gaze a little unnaturally.
"Honey, maybe we can consider three of us together. Night Song gently bit his earlobe, and her gentle breath carried a seductive aroma, "Seriously, if Christine conceived a child first, I would be a little jealous." ”
What can I say, looking at the murderous eyes of the men around me. Lin Taiping could only look up at the sky happily and worriedly, but he didn't worry for too long, because soon, he noticed a pair of eyes full of vicious hatred, just like a shadow staring at him......
In the crowd not far away, the Marquis of Grande dragged his broken leg on crutches, sneering viciously, and it was a little strange that more than two months had passed, and his injuries had not improved. On the contrary, there are a few more scars of unknown origin, so that it is difficult to walk.
"Looks like the circus guy is angry. Lin Taiping touched his chin with a smile and waved his hand to the Marquis of Grande very warmly, "Dear Marquis, I didn't expect you to come to the banquet too, sure enough, it was the disabled Zhijian, by the way, I suddenly remembered." It seems that next month will be the voting time for the election of councillors. ”
Which pot is not opened, which pot is not mentioned, Marquis Grande snorted coldly, and told him after several painful experiences in a row, don't grind your teeth with this damn little white face. That will only lead to a faster death and a worse death, and the most correct thing to do is to leave far away, and the farther away you are, the safer you are.
But the problem is that he doesn't take the initiative to provoke others. But it doesn't mean that others don't take the initiative to provoke him, so just a few seconds later, Instein immediately jumped out viciously. Grinding his fangs, he said, "Hey, who is that, what about you, you owe me two million gold coins, when are you going to pay it back?"
Two million gold coins?Looking at the fat pig in front of him, the Marquis of Grande couldn't help but be dumbfounded, but he suddenly became furious: "Damn stupid pig, take your hooves back, when did I owe you two million gold coins?"
"I said yes, there was. "So, do you want to pay the bills? It doesn't matter, anyway, I know where you live, I'll go over and take it myself tonight, and if you dare not give it, I'll kidnap your son and sell him to the mines to do hard labor." ”
This is blackmail, Chiguoguo's blackmail!
Marquis Grande trembled with anger, turned his head unbearably, and looked at the nobles next to him: "Speaker Federer, Mr. Kinkodo, you have all seen that this damn evil stupid pig dares to threaten me in front of so many people, if this is okay, then whose safety can be guaranteed?"
"What are you talking about?" Mr. Kinkdo touched his big belly and suddenly plucked his ears hard, "I'm sorry, my ears haven't been very good lately, I haven't heard anything, have you heard anything?"
Not at all, a group of nobles shook their heads very seriously, compared to the Marquis of Grande in the sunset, that Mr. Lin was in full swing, not to mention that his big business brought benefits to everyone, in this case, even a fool knows what to choose.
Marquis Grande was so angry that he could only pin his last hope on Speaker Federer: "Speaker, you have always been known for your fairness and strictness, please be fair, this stupid pig ...... just now"
"I'm sorry, but I have important things to do. Completely ignoring the angry gaze of the Marquis Grandet, Speaker Federer bowed expressionlessly, then took a glass of red wine and walked up to the high platform without hurry.
Aware of this move, everyone turned their heads neatly and looked at Speaker Federer on the stage with a smile, under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, Speaker Federer showed a rare smile and coughed lightly: "Everyone, I'm sorry to interrupt your happy time, but ...... This is the end of the feast!"
With a bang, there was an uproar in the originally calm crowd, and many people looked at each other in confusion, knowing that the banquet had just started for less than half an hour, and even the main course had not yet had time to be served, but now it was over?
Lin Taiping and Christine glanced at each other, retreated and hid in the shadows with a tacit understanding, and Yege smiled at the first time, quietly pulled out his dagger, and just waited for the wrong time to launch a shadow sneak, trying to catch Speaker Federer on the stage.
"Yes, it's over!" Speaker Federer continued to announce calmly, looking at the chaotic crowd below, "Actually, we have more important things to go, such as - go all out and completely wipe out the damn clown pirate fleet!"
In an instant, the otherwise noisy crowd became even more chaotic, and everyone looked at Speaker Federer's gaze as if they were looking at a ridiculous madman. Mr. Jinkodo couldn't help but shout, "I admire your courage, Lord Speaker, but how do you plan to destroy those pirates and let us noble merchants swim over?"
Hearing this sarcasm, everyone burst into laughter, knowing that the armed fleet of Ivory Island only has six large warships, and it is also responsible for protecting the outer waters of Ivory Island, if all of them are dispatched thousands of miles away, then what will the defense of Ivory Island do, can only rely on prayer?
However. In the midst of such ridicule, Speaker Federer was still expressionless, he slowly turned his head to look at the foggy sea in the distance, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly showed a pleasant smile: "Is it finally here?"
At this moment, everyone turned their heads in surprise and looked at the gray mist that seemed to be nothing, but it was at this moment. The sound of a desolate horn suddenly came from the mist, and in the disbelief of everyone's gaze, a huge black shadow gradually appeared, it was...... Is that......
Battleship! That's a battleship! That's a big black battleship. The sturdy hull made entirely of red pine resembles a mammoth from prehistoric times, and the twelve fierce cannons on the deck resemble the sharp fangs of this mammoth giant. Just by the slow approach of the sea breeze, the waves were already raging, as if they were about to knock the island apart.
This scene. It was shocking enough, but the real shock was still to come, as the sound of the desolate horn continued, the second almost identical black large battleship also broke through the fog and sailed in the wind and waves, followed by the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth......
A whole six large black warships, like terrifying steel fortresses, lay across the rough sea, and around these six large warships, there are dozens of small and medium-sized fierce warships, which together form a circular wave band, raising sails as white as clouds, exuding a suffocating and hideous momentum.
Unbelievable, the aristocratic merchants on the beach were silent, and they couldn't even control the trembling of their bodies, and the Marquis of Grande didn't know what he was thinking, and his face was full of uncertainties: "Why? Why is there a sudden ...... Wait, Speaker, is this a new fleet purchased by the Council?"
That's right! Speaker Federer smiled to himself, and seeing everyone's shocked reaction, he suddenly felt that all the humiliation he had endured in the past period had been most wonderfully rewarded.
In fact, since the night of the Joker's attack on Ivory Island, the parliament has secretly passed a resolution to allocate huge sums of money to buy large warships from other islands, a secret process that lasted for nearly three months, and all the councillors swore to keep their mouths shut, even in the face of repeated harassment by pirates, even in the face of angry protests from the people, they have gritted their teeth and persevered.
And now, that has paid off, and with this powerful new fleet, the council can finally get out of its passive defenses and launch a deadly raid that will take down the pirates' lair and wipe out the damned clown and his men.
Wise!decisive!perfect!
At this moment, imagining the scene of a great victory, the aristocratic businessmen present suddenly blushed with excitement, and praised Speaker Federer and the wise decision of the parliament in unison, although only a few minutes ago, they were laughing at Speaker Federer for only knowing how to speak big words.
Marquis Grande barely kept a smile, but an irresistible panic welled up in his heart, and he turned his head to look at the powerful black fleet, he couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly said casually: "Then, we look forward to the day when the fleet returns victoriously...... Well, it's windy here, maybe we should head back to Ivory Island first. ”
That's right, that's right, no one wants to stand under the threat of the magic crystal cannon, the noble merchants nodded again and again, and they were about to leave here, and the Marquis of Grande was the first to say goodbye, and walked out more than ten meters away in a blink of an eye, but to his surprise, a group of attendants suddenly took off their coats, revealing murderous armor, blocking everyone's way.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid you can't leave here. In the stunned eyes of the aristocratic merchants, Speaker Federer took a sip of red wine, and his slightly narrowed eyes shone with a cold light.
"I'm sorry, but the council and I both feel that you should go with the fleet!" (to be continued......)
