Chapter 714: Unusual Quiet
Although he is a consul elder, some specific things do not need to be done by Chang Feng himself, Di Xi and others are responsible for building ships, and Luan Yushu and others are responsible for specific things such as raising resources and manpower.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, in addition to cultivation, Chang Feng successively met with some forces that were familiar with him.
Among the Seven Kingdoms, the Qin State and the Chu State are responsible for the affairs of the offshore resource tide, respectively, Yingman and Xiang Huayang, and Chang Feng naturally needs to contact him.
Unlike Xiang Huayang, who was forced to go to the open sea by retreating, Ying Man took the initiative to take charge of this matter, and Ying Man was already determined to be the crown prince of Qin, and going to the open sea was to win more and more credit for the throne.
In addition to these two princes, Chang Feng also secretly visited his cousin Bai Baichen.
Yan is different from Qin and Chu, and when King Yan was upright in the Spring and Autumn Period, the agenda of the prince was not included in the national politics of Yan, but the basic scope of investigation had been determined.
His cousin Bai Tianchen and another Yan King's grandfather, Bai Fengnan, were the ones who were listed as the investigators of the future Yan King.
However, Bai Tianchen's current situation is not very good, because it is Bai Kaijiang, the prince of Yan, who is in charge of the tide of resources in the open sea, and that prince is a person who is not easy to talk to, and has expressed his support for Bai Tianchen's rival Bai Fengnan more than once.
After a secret meeting with Bai Tianchen, Chang Feng left Yan Guo's base camp in Fuhai City, but he included Yan Guo's affairs in his plan.
There was no choice, he had to prop up his cousin to the top.
After visiting the familiar people of the Seven Kingdoms, Chang Feng secretly visited the familiar people of the Li family in the Hetao, Wanxing Sect, Haixian Sect and other rivers and lakes forces, although his friends are not the controllers of one of the forces, but they have been fully cultivated by all the forces, and they already have the right to speak in their respective forces, and the future is unlimited.
After the completion of the meeting of the five sects and the four families, Chang Feng had a secret meeting with the people in charge of Xirong and the Nanban forces, and had a secret contact with Chang Qijiang, the sixth uncle who came here specifically.
Unconsciously, after more than three months of busyness, Chang Feng found that he had too many things to do, not including the Xuantian Sect things that required him to decide.
Just when Chang Feng was planning many things, he suddenly received an order from the Piaoxiang Tavern, and the order was extremely simple, asking him to mobilize the forces in his hands to closely monitor the every move of the Baili Family, a large family affiliated to the Zhang family of Tianfu.
Receiving this news, Chang Feng was really taken aback.
The Baili family is one of the large affiliated families of the Zhang family of Tianfu, and its status and strength in the Shanhai Continent are very similar to the Chang family back then, and it can be said that it is one of the large forces in the rivers and lakes that are second only to the five sects and four families.
The tide of resources in the open sea is about to begin, and the five sects and four families are all elites, and some large forces attached to them are also doing their best, trying to gain more in the tide of resources.
And in order to maintain their rule, at such a moment, the five sects and four families also gave great recognition and support to the large forces attached to them, not only allowing them to send people to follow, but even setting aside one or two hurricane ships assigned to them for use.
Just like the Tianji Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect and the Taixu Sect under the Xuantian Sect, the Baili Family is attached to the Tianfu Zhang Family, which is the first of the four major families, and there are also 10,000 people stationed in Fuhai City who are building ordinary spirit ships.
The sudden issuance of this order by the Piaoxiang Tavern really shocked Chang Feng, and a dark cloud immediately enveloped his heart.
Before going to Fuhai City, Chu Dongyang had an interview with him, and aside from the matter of the tide of resources in the open sea, the most talked about was naturally the relationship between the Yang Alliance and the Shanhai Kingdom.
According to Chu Dongyang's account, after the Nanban incident, the Shanhai Kingdom had already listed the Fallen Yang Alliance as the number one enemy to shake the country's foundation, and Yang Biao personally deployed and vowed to wipe out the Fallen Yang Alliance.
Under the attack everywhere, some of the peripheral forces of the Fallen Yang Alliance were dealt a heavy blow, and Chu Dongyang even speculated that the Shanhai Kingdom had already mastered some of the core secrets of the Fallen Yang Alliance, and once the Shanhai Kingdom chose to make a move, the forces of the Fallen Yang Alliance would definitely be dealt a heavy blow.
After knowing these things, Chang Feng was full of surprise and also knew that Shanhai Kingdom was not so easy to overthrow, and his counterattack would definitely be extremely sharp and cruel.
Now Piaoxiang Tavern suddenly passed an order to him, asking him to monitor every move of the Baili family in Fuhai City, and the meaning is self-evident.
Chang Feng didn't want to do this, but Chu Dongyang had clearly told him that before he set off for the open sea, he would definitely go all out to carry out the orders of the Piaoxiang Tavern, and he would never reveal his identity.
In this case, Chang Feng could only carry out this order of the Piaoxiang Tavern.
Not only did he arrange for the Piaoxiang Tavern under his control to spy on the Baili Family and the Tianfu Zhang Family in Fuhai City, but even some forces of the Xuantian Sect were also mobilized to closely watch the Baili Family's every move on the grounds of conflicting shipbuilding resources.
But what happened next made Chang Feng really unsure what Shanhai Kingdom wanted to do.
In the past seven or eight years, the preparations of all forces inside and outside Fuhai City for going to sea have come to an end, and Shanhai Kingdom still did not have any action orders.
As for Chang Feng receiving the task, whether it is the Baili family or the Tianfu Zhang family, all the forces are preparing to go to sea, and there are no unusual moves.
On this issue, Chang Feng tried to contact Li Kuoer, Ning Huanshan, and even Chu Dongyang to try to get some other news or instructions, but they were also puzzled by the current situation, and could only ask Chang Feng to deal with it flexibly.
Under the high pressure of the Shanhai Kingdom, all the actions of the Yang Alliance stopped, and the Piaoxiang Tavern did not have any orders, Chang Feng even hoped to get some relevant news through the Meixian Academy, but it backfired, and the Meixian Yuan could not provide any questions he asked, no matter how many spirit stones he spent.
Silence, unprecedented silence made Chang Feng feel a huge unease, he had a hunch that once the storm brewing in the country of mountains and seas came, it would inevitably form a monstrous torrent and sweep everything in front of it.
But now he is powerless, he can only wait, wait for things to turn around or something change, and even think that the Shanhai Council will only take action after the tide of resources in the open sea is over.
It was in this kind of waiting that Chang Feng received news about the transfer of hurricane ships by Shanhai Country.
I don't know what kind of efforts have been made by the various forces, and I don't know what reserve resources the Shanhai Kingdom has used, but this wave of offshore resources has not reduced the number of hurricane ships provided to the various forces as previously rumored.
As always, Shanhaiguo still took out enough hurricane ships this time, even more than before.
The number of the six countries is between sixty and eighty, the least is the Yue State, with only sixty ships, and the most is the Chu State with eighty ships.
The three Beihu tribes, which had the fewest of the three foreign races, got forty ships, the six Xirong tribes got fifty ships, and the nine Nanban tribes got sixty ships, which was beyond everyone's imagination.
As for the forces of the rivers and lakes such as the Five Sects and the Four Families, the Shanhai Kingdom has no distinction and treats them equally, and each force is fifteen ships.
With such a large number of resources in the open sea more than half of the previous tide of resources, the nine major rivers and lakes forces naturally would not have any opinions.
The snake can't do it without a head, especially the wave of offshore resources in which all the forces of the Shanhai Continent participate, and at the same time as the number of hurricane ships is determined, the Shanhai Kingdom also announces the leadership of this offshore resource tide to all forces.
Yang Yan, the regent of the Yue Kingdom, Shi Tianshu, the right prime minister of the Shanhai Kingdom, the right Yushi, the old minister of the two dynasties, Shangguan Yue, the supreme commander of Jiutianfang City, Wang Bufan, and the commander of the left army of the Shanhai Kingdom, Yu Xinghe.
When the five of them were in command of all the forces of the Shanhai Kingdom, they coordinated the forces of all parties to ensure the smooth and fruitful journey of the entire fleet.
Among the five people, Shi Tianshu, Shangguan Yue, Wang Bufan, and Yu Xinghe are all tribulation monks, these people are the closest people around Yang Biao, and they rarely leave Yang Biao.
When he learned of these news, Chang Feng thought about the deep meaning of Shanhai Kingdom's move and led the Xuantian Sect Elders to the dock, waiting for the arrival of the fifteen hurricane ships allocated by Shanhai Kingdom.
