Chapter 755: The World Is Cold
"The other party actually has a long-range attack weapon!" Hearing Wang Yue's description, a layer of white sweat appeared on everyone's bodies, and no one spoke.
They have grenades, but they have to be at the right distance, and if they get close to the other party's ship, they can definitely blow up the other party's crying father and mother. Defensively, it can also prevent the opponent from boarding the ship. But if the opponent has a ranged weapon, their grenades are completely useless.
"Are you sure the other party is a Black Wave Pirate?" After a long while, Wang Tongcai asked again. They have been engaged in overseas trade for many years, and they have only heard that there is a long-range weapon called ship cannon on Sizhou Island, and there are no other big forces, how can a pirate group have it.
"Absolutely, that's right!" Wang Yue nodded vigorously: "I saw with my own eyes that the flag of their head ship was painted with the symbol of the black wave! And their bow is engraved with the unique skeleton of pirates!"
Wang Tong frowned, there would be no mistake with that. If you pretend to hang a flag, how can it still be carved on the bow of the ship, it can't be hidden.
"Are you sure everyone is dead?" Wang Zhicheng asked from the side.
"Although I haven't seen it all, Hei Lang has always been ruthless and will not let anyone go!" Wang Yue shook his head and wept.
Wang Yue's words seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the mothers of the children of the Wang family who followed this voyage were all grief-stricken and howled.
"How did you come back alive?" Wang Tong asked again.
"They deliberately let me come back, and they deliberately asked me to come back to report the news!" Wang Yue gritted his teeth when he said this.
"Why is this?" Wang Tong and Wang Zhicheng glanced at each other, both puzzled!
"Old man. This time, our Wang family has suffered a big loss, and the money from those suppliers has not yet been settled...... Especially the star collar. An old man from the Wang family said.
"Hmm!" Wang Tong nodded. With a long exhale, I felt like my brain was confused. Since the start of the Wang family, he has never encountered such a big blow, and it is the first time he has experienced it.
"Lord Jiang Zhicheng went and said, it shouldn't be a big problem! Wang Lun, you go and arrange a bereavement ......" Although the old man Wang Tong was sad and angry in his heart, he would endure it. Start making arrangements for the aftermath......
The news spread quickly, and in less than half a day, the entire Linhai City knew about it. There were more than 300 sailors in need of bereavement. I can't hide it at all.
The major families in Linhai City were shocked, and they sent people to the Wang family to condole, but in fact, to find out the specific situation of the matter.
When people are sure of the truth, they react differently.
Several families who are good friends with the Wang family are sad. Help the Wang family deal with the aftermath.
But there are also many who begin to gloat. They all eat at sea, and the rise of the Wang family will inevitably affect the interests of some people. But the Wang family is powerful, and with Jiang Xingchen behind him, no one dares to say anything.
In the past, they could only be jealous and envious of the good fortune of the Wang family, and they were able to meet Jiang Xingchen, a noble person! In fact, they wished that the Wang family would have bad luck.
Now that this incident suddenly appeared, these people were all very happy, and some even invited each other to the restaurant to celebrate. It seems that the bad luck of the Wang family is their great joy.
"I've long been tired of them, a small family started by a civilian. Once you gain momentum, your tail will rise to the sky!"
"Who says it's not, look at the proud look of their children after they befriended Jiang Xingchen at the beginning! You deserve it!"
"The Wang family is swelling too fast, how can the food on the sea be so delicious! I thought that with Jiang Xingchen's support, I could get a seven-story treasure ship and be unscrupulous...... If they expand their business scope like this, they must have touched the interests of the Black Wave Pirates, so they will be hit like this!"
"Hehe, what did you say about luck at the beginning, Jiang Xingchen is the biggest luck in the world, whoever gets involved with him will be prosperous...... As a result, I was so happy and sad!"
"Haha, that's really the case, I see where Jiang Xingchen is, it's all mildew! If it weren't for him, the Wang family would at least be cautious and still be able to develop. The worst of them will not suffer such a blow!"
This time, the Wang family lost 20 million in cargo, eight merchant ships, including seven-story treasure ships, and the lives of more than 300 sailors...... It looks like he's going to lose his money. ”
"Not necessarily, don't they still have Jiang Xingchen behind them! Maybe people will reach out?"
"You think that Jiang Xingchen opened a good hall, and people will value you if you have use value, but now that the Wang family has offended Hei Lang for some reason, overseas trade is coming to an end, who will care about him!"
"Hahahaha...... Anyway, I'm happy!"
In the next two or three days, these families became more and more unscrupulous, and some of them were still talking loudly in front of the Wang family, and they did not shy away from it at all.
And the Wang family, which used to be in the city, has also become deserted these days, and the families who usually run here when they have nothing to do are gone. It seems that being with the Wang family will be unlucky, or thinking that getting too close to the Wang family will also make Hei Lang angry with him.
The children of the Wang family, who have always been smooth and smooth, have thoroughly felt what it means to be in the hot and cold world. Everyone was holding their breath in their hearts, how could they not know when the outside world was talking about it. The Wang family hasn't fallen yet, but it's just a blow, and people are like that. If it really fell, those people would not be hungry and pounce on them like wolves.
Wang Lun and Wang Bin seem to have grown up a lot overnight, and they can no longer see the impetuousness of the past, and they are all silently doing the aftermath of this incident.
In Linhai City, more families who run the sea are worried about another thing, that is, what is the purpose of Hei Lang's actions. Because they never knew why Hei Lang attacked the Wang family. It was really the Wang family that touched their interests, or did Hei Lang set his sights on Linhai City.
If it is the second type, then their losses will be great! They will not dare to go to sea for a short time, so they can only send letters to the big overseas powers, and only after they come here to expel the black waves can they continue to carry out maritime trade.
But this period of time will not be short, it is money for them, and if the goods are not delivered in the future, there will be other merchants to seize their business.
In the evening, the big families of Linhai City gathered together and were talking about it.
"Why don't we do this, let's send someone to the sea and talk to Hei Lang, what does he look like?" someone said.
"Are you crazy to negotiate with pirates? are they still called pirates if they are reasonable...... And those who often run at sea know that Black Wave is notoriously ruthless. ”
"That is, if we want to go to you, we will not go!" More than half of the people objected on the spot.
"Then what do you say, don't you really go to sea?" asked the man who mentioned yì.
"Let's do this, first squeeze the Wang family out of Linhai City, and then send a small cargo ship! If the small cargo ship is fine, it means that Hei Lang is coming to the Wang family......" said a middle-aged man with triangular eyes.
"Then what if it's not the Wang family's problem?" Tiyì sneered.
"The Wang family has suffered such a blow, where can they still make a living at sea in the future, it doesn't matter if they are squeezed out, it will help him find a better way out!" the man smiled.
"It's shameless!" A group of people scolded in their hearts, such a bad move can find such a high-sounding reason, this character can no longer be described as low.
At the same time, in the Wang family's mansion, Wang Yan finally rushed back.
As soon as he arrived home, Wang Yan heard such bad news, and he was shocked at that time, how could he send it to Lord Jiang's house by himself, there was such a big change.
Compared with other disciples, Wang Yan is much calmer. Knowing that Hei Lang had killed several children of the Wang family, as well as Wang Heng, an opponent and brother, he was about to explode in anger, but he endured it and asked about the specific situation.
After listening to Wang Tong's narration, Wang Yan suddenly said, "They are here for Lord Jiang!"
"What?" Wang Tong exclaimed, he couldn't guess why Hei Lang did this, but he didn't expect that this matter had something to do with Jiang Xingchen.
"It's impossible! What does Hei Lang have to do with Lord Jiang!" Wang Zhicheng also shook his head again and again, he couldn't get in touch at all.
Wang Lun and Wang Bin both frowned, obviously this result was not what they expected.
Wang Yan looked at everyone and said, "Before I came back, Lord Jiang gave me a task to receive the Flowing Sap Tree Island that I won this time...... At that time, he said that he should be careful of the obstruction of Sizhou Island and Black Waves. During the horse race, the young master of Heilang was with the king and grandson of Sizhou Island, and was slapped by the old man!"
"Ah, and this, Lord Jiang talked to me all night, and he didn't mention it!" Wang Tong was full of doubts.
In fact, it was no wonder that he was puzzled, Jiang Xingchen originally had no plans to go to sea in the short term! Originally, he wanted to put this matter aside first, and wait until the ship's problem was solved in the future. When I talked to Wang Tong, I ignored this matter.
didn't expect to receive a killer whale on the way, so he started to think about it, and finally told Wang Yan the plan.
Jiang Xingchen didn't expect that the young master of Heilang would report this kind of Cheng dù, and even the Wang family would attack.
At this time, Wang Tong and Wang Zhicheng understood why Hei Lang put Wang Yue back to deliver the letter, which was to provoke Jiang Xingchen.
"Then what should we do now, do you want to inform Lord Jiang?" Wang Lun interjected and asked.
"No need to notify, I have already sent a letter to Xingchen Ling about the loss, and Lord Jiang will definitely understand when he sees it!" Wang Zhicheng said.
"Then Wang Yan's side, do you still have to complete the task assigned by Lord Jiang! Hei Lang has long-range attack weapons, and we don't even have a three-story cargo ship now!" Wang Bin asked.
When he said this, Wang Tong and Wang Zhicheng both frowned, the black wave was so powerful, Lord Jiang knew that it would be obstructed, how could he let Wang Yan go to receive the Flowing Juice Tree Island.
As soon as their question popped up, they heard Wang Yan say: "This is the first task that Lord Jiang has given to our Wang family, and it must be completed...... You don't have to worry, Lord Jiang won't do anything that you are not sure about, on the way to the Land of the Damned, Lord Jiang subdued a killer whale!"
"Does Lord Jiang already have arrangements...... What do you say, a killer whale!" (To be continued......)
