Chapter 1058 The Plan of the An Family I am here to collect the debts
Chongming Island, the head of the An family looked at the letter in his hand, his brows furrowed slightly. This is a letter from the prince of Mandan Island who wants to buy papermaking.
"You show me this letter, have you made up your mind!" The head of the An family raised his head and asked the son of the An family opposite.
"Yes!" The prince of the An family nodded and said, "I think it's better to sell it! Instead of making that little money every month, it's better to sell technology and make a fortune!"
"But have you thought about it, how many people on the island will oppose this matter! The prestige that you have just built up with great difficulty...... "From the perspective of the An family master himself, he is not willing to sell, the papermaking technique was obtained by them after losing so much strength, so he is unwilling to give up like this."
However, the son of the An family came to him with a letter from Mandan Island, which means that he has made up his mind, otherwise he won't even show it to himself. He is now seeking his own support. But even if he supports it, the people on the island will point the finger at Shizi, after all, he is the person in charge of this matter.
"If anyone objects, oppose it, they have to execute me before, and I didn't survive the same...... Wait until I use the money from the sale of papermaking to research the bomb, and see what else they have to say!" said the prince of the An family.
"What, there is progress in the research of the bomb?" said the head of the An family, overjoyed.
"Actually, bombs and grenades are the same, the difference is that the internal device is more complex than the grenade! Now the blasting device has been studied, and the time-delay device is being studied, and the time of explosion is also different depending on the ejection distance. This is also the reason why the Star Collar Ballista can chase the enemy's butt and beat. ”
After a pause, the An family continued: "So, I need a lot of Yuan Shi now to make it real! Even if the ancestor doesn't come back, we are enough to face the Wang family's fleet. A powerful bomb. Even killer whales can't bear it. ”
"What about the launcher, Xingchenling's ballista can shoot a thousand meters of bombs!"
"There's no way around it. This is simply a matter of materials, and it is really impossible to study it. Even the boiler that blew up hundreds of our senior craftsmen in the first place was caused by a material problem!"
"In this way, wouldn't we still be able to fight hard with the Wang family's fleet! If they put the ballista on the ship, the range would be much farther than ours!"
"You can't say that!" An Jiazi shook his head: "The sea is not as good as the land, the waves are undulating, the hull is unstable, and if there is a slight deviation during launch, the landing point can be much worse." So it's not just about whose weapon is good. It depends on who trains the personnel well! As long as we research the bomb, we may not have a chance!"
"Also, with the bombs, we can trap killer whales! There are only sixteen of them in total!" Speaking of this, the An family prince lowered his voice and said, "Besides, our weapons are not necessarily bad!
The eyes of the head of the An family flashed: "Jiang Xingchen asked Da Chen for Minggang City, you stretched out your hand!"
The prince of the An family nodded and said with a smile: "I asked our people in Dachen to send a letter to the emperor!"
"How could Emperor Da Chen believe you?" asked the head of the An family.
"The sect master of Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect!" The son of the An family only said one sentence, and the head of the An family understood.
"Good job!" "The head of the An family laughed: "In the future, Jiang Xingchen may regret occupying Minggang City!"
The son of the An family smiled: "It's the same as I imagined." The first thing they did when they arrived at Minggang City was to push the city wall...... Hehe, the use of the steam engine is too great, we must get it! Otherwise, we will never be Jiang Xingchen's opponent!"
The head of the An family said, "That's right. Don't do anything rashly!"
"Father, don't worry! The lessons I learned from the first few times are not enough, and I will never do it if I don't have a complete grasp...... This time, I sold the papermaking technique to Mandan Island. It is estimated that it is enough for the Wang family to drink a pot. Mantan Island is a big user of paper, once they don't use it. The Wang family is going to run more small households, and it is inevitable to disperse the team. On the scale of a dozen of their seven-story treasure ships. How much strength can you have when you are separated!"
"In that case, if you want to do it, you can do it thoroughly, and you can sell it to him on Sizhou Island!" said the head of the An family.
"Mo Yun also wrote a letter a while ago, saying that he wanted to buy papermaking, but I refused!"
"Refused!" The head of the An family was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "You didn't refuse, you wanted to knock him off!"
"Of course, when he sees that Nangong has obtained the papermaking technique, he will definitely not be able to sit still!"
Soon after, the prince of the An family left the head of the An family and went to the secret room of the ancestor retreat alone.
Sitting in the secret room, the prince of the An family frowned, and said in a low voice: "It's been so long, the ancestor should have found a place...... Is there really a dragon pill in there!Can the Ancestor enter the Great Perfection realm......
Two days later, at the mouth of the Puli Island, five seven-story treasure ships sailed in, and soon joined up with five other seven-story treasure ships.
The middle-aged man hurriedly ran onto the head boat, and when he saw the swarthy young man, he quickly asked, "Shizi, how is it, has it been done?"
"Hahahaha...... The swarthy young man first burst out laughing, and then said: "The letter from the son of the An family has been agreed, and I have also told the head of the family about it. The head of the family is very happy and is ready to send someone to Chongming Island to negotiate!"
"Whew~" The middle-aged man let out a long sigh and said, "It's finally solved!"
"yes! I can't wait to see the royal fleet now...... It also threatens us that Mandan Island is a big demand for paper. Without us, they will slowly run away from the small retail investors on their own!"
After a pause, the swarthy young man asked, "How are things handled here?"
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "It's already been moved, but they are still very vigilant! And it's not easy to find such a unique desert island." ”
"Then you have to find it! The Wang family must have come this time in a bad way!" the swarthy young man said categorically!
And at this time, on the sea three hundred miles to the west, the old man was riding on the back of the ribs, leading ten killer whales to ride the wind and waves.
On the head boat, Wang Zhicheng looked at the killer whales that were rapidly moving away, and sighed: "I really didn't expect that the lord still has an account overseas!"
He originally wanted to get the paper from Mandan Island and force the swarthy young man to submit! But he didn't expect the old man to come in person and lose the debt collector!
After the old man said this, Wang Zhicheng remembered the last horse race. I finally know where the grievances between Mandan Island and my side are!
"Hehe, they were afraid that they would be killed at that time, and they wouldn't have thought that the lord would really go to collect the island...... "Wang Zhicheng laughed loudly, and then ordered to anchor, and the fleet sailed to Puli Island again......
The area of Aliu Island is not large, only more than 300 square miles, but it is a small resource island, rich in a metal called bright silver, and the use of this metal to make zuò utensils is very popular in the upper floors of Mandan Island and in the imperial palace.
On this island, there are about 2,000 laborers who work on the mines, and dozens of ships travel here every day to transport ore.
One evening at the end of May, the harbor was unusually busy, and the laborers were carrying loadloads of ore to the ship, and the sailors on board were rarely at leisure, chatting and farting on the deck in the sea breeze.
Suddenly, several waterlines appeared on the water in the distance, and they quickly rushed in the direction of the port.
"What is that?" said one of the sailors in the chat, who was facing the outside and exclaimed at the sight of this.
"Little Sanzi, what the hell are you yelling about, you are shocked...... Ah~" The old sailor, who had his back to the port, turned around as he spoke, and then let out a piercing scream! What he saw was even more terrifying than the little third son, the waterline suddenly sank downward, and then the huge body of the mung bean jumped out of the water, such a strong visual impact, so frightened that his heart was about to jump out.
In the scream of the old sailor, the mung bean slammed into the sea, and with a bang, like thunder, a wave rushed into the harbor, and in a few seconds the water reached the shore, and the ship jerked up and down, and the people on board were shaken to the ground.
And at this time, all the sailors saw the mung beans, and one by one they turned pale with fright, and their lips trembled. The huge triangular dorsal fin cruises outside the harbor, as if it could rush in at any moment.
"What is this Nima, what is it for?" the timid one was already about to cry.
"If I'm paralyzed, I'll say I won't come this time, and something will happen!"
"I knew I was going to the port opposite, the water is shallow, this guy will never swim into the port!" The last to speak was the captain who ran out to see the situation, but he was also scared enough by the mung bean.
"Hurry up and get ashore! If you go ashore, it won't be able to take us!" I don't know who shouted such a voice, and a group of people woke up like a dream, and they ran to the shore.
"Huh~" But at this moment, there was an eagle cry in the sky, and as soon as people turned their heads, they saw a giant eagle with a wingspan of more than ten meters suspended above the big guy in the water.
"Why is there another eagle, such a big one, don't be a demon beast anymore...... It won't want to eat us, will it?"
"Nima, where is this going, look at that eagle's beak, like a big iron hook, you can kill in one fell swoop!"
"No, you see, there seems to be a man on the back of the eagle?"
As someone said this, the panicked people settled down and watched carefully...... Isn't it, there really is a man on the back of the eagle.
But their fear did not subside, and the man was chilling to look at on the back of such a large eagle.
The old man on the back of the eagle was very satisfied when he saw everyone's expressions and demeanor, which showed that his appearance was very impressive.
With a light touch on the eagle's back, the old man jumped down from the sky, landed firmly on the back of the mung bean, smiled and glanced at the panicked people on the boat, and said lightly: "Don't be afraid, I'm just here to collect the bill!" (To be continued......)
PS: The fourth watch is completed, and I finally paid off yesterday's debt!
