Chapter 83: The Hidden Dragon Ascends into the Abyss

(PS: Thank you for the starting point of the 1111 reward in the future, thank you for your support!)

Through the interrogation of the pirates, a lot of information about Chen Xitian was obtained. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

These confessions also verified Yan Long's guess, although Zhan Kong was a newcomer, he came to the top later, and with almost half of the people, he fell out with Chen Xitian.

In the end, Zhan Kong, as the deputy leader of the Haiyuan Gang, reached an agreement with Chen Xitian and assigned half of the routes within the Haiyuan Gang's sphere of influence, of which Shitan Town was an important seaport terminal connecting him to the inland.

For the rest of the day, the town of Rocky Beach was relatively quiet.

On May 24, the third year of the Apocalypse, the Sky Gang executed 47 pirates on the beach execution platform, all of them were hanged, and their bodies were exposed for three days.

On May 25, the Sky Gang joined forces with two wealthy local households to announce the expansion of Zuichun Building's business scale.

On May 30, in cooperation with Yulon Commercial Bank, six cargo ships were launched and the sea trade was announced. The Sky Gang also served as escort guards on the wharf, working for ship merchants going to sea in batches and accumulating sailing experience.

On the first day of the first month of June, some wealthy merchants in Shitan Town and neighboring towns united to meet the helmsman "Long San", who was the helmsman of Changkong to help Shitan Town, but Yan Long refused because he was injured and it was inconvenient to see customers.

At this time, the weather was already very hot, Yan Long put his hands behind his back, standing on the high platform in the rudder manor, while looking at the Sea Dragon Banner gang who were training on the beach, while listening to the bookkeeper in the rudder report on the income and expenditure of this period of time.

After a while, the people in the gang came to report that Wang Shuang had returned from LT County.

When Yan Long heard this, he ordered without looking back: "Tell the deputy helmsman of the king to come to me, and all of you go down, without my orders, you must not come within a hundred steps of this high platform." ā€

"Yes!" everyone withdrew.

After a while, Wang Shuang arrived.

Yan Long finally turned around, and he asked Wang Shuang what news was there in the county government?

Wang Shuang bowed and hugged his fists and said, "Yes!"

Yan Long said, "Sit down and talk!" He took the lead in sitting down, picked up the fragrant tea on the coffee table and began to sip.

Wang Shuangke was not so gentle, he picked up the cold kettle on the table and poured it directly, and then wiped the water on his beard, and said: "Helmsman, good news! I inquired from an acquaintance in the county government that the imperial court has made corresponding arrangements for the assassination and robbery of the Xiliangzihe River, and the official document has been issued, in addition to urging the state government to solve the case, you and your parents have also been included in the list of death prisoners. ā€

Yan Long said with a relaxed expression: "In this way, I am now a dead man!

Wang Shuang continued: "The good news is not this one, but another official document issued to the county government in the name of the Criminal Department. There is a list of people who have been reversed and rehabilitated after being reviewed by the Criminal Department, and your father's name is on it. ā€

When Yan Long heard this, his expression froze, and he stood up involuntarily, his eyes staring at Wang Shuangdao: "This is impossible!"

Wang Shuangdao: "It's true, I've read all the official documents, and the acquaintance I'm looking for is the county lieutenant of LT County." Although these official documents are not visible to ordinary people, they are just ordinary official documents issued by the Criminal Department, and they are not classified documents, so there is no need for him to fool me. ā€

Yan Long sneered: "Rehabilitation?!Everyone is dead, and now there is a fart for rehabilitation." ā€

Wang Shuang could understand Yan Long's grief and indignation, so he comforted Yan Long and said: "The world is so unfair, but now it is a good thing for you, the helmsman, to be rehabilitated." You don't have to worry about being wanted in the future, and you can use your name again. ā€

Yan Long didn't speak, he was thinking in his heart: "Father's crime is that he is arrogant and insulting the Holy Venerable. He was directly arrested and imprisoned after the trial of the three law divisions, and the first pass was two years, and the emperor did not say to kill or let go. Now he has been deceived by Liu Qiao's fake death scam, and he has been deceived all of a sudden? And then he has been rehabilitated? What is the mystery of this?"

Wang Shuang saw that Yan Long was stunned, thinking that his mood had not yet calmed down, so he changed the topic and said, "Helmsman, why did you agree to the cooperation with Yulon Commercial Bank so quickly?"

Yan Long heard this, came back to his senses, he raised his head and asked Wang Shuangdao, "Do you have any concerns about this matter?"

Wang Shuangdao: "Yes." The subordinates thought that the matter was too hasty. If all six warships were to be used for sea cargo, all of our armed mobile forces at sea would be gone. ā€

Yan Long said with a smile: "It's not just that! Since the Wen Da Owner of the Yulon Trading House couldn't find so many people who traveled to the ship and guarded it, I have decided to send two hundred people who have been to sea from our rudder to go to sea with the ship to experience it. ā€

When Wang Shuang heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, he stood up and said excitedly: "Helmsman, our current manpower is already stretched, you ...... You're going to send two hundred more people to sea?!"

Seeing this, Yan Long gently patted Wang Shuang's shoulder and said with a smile: "Deputy helmsman Wang, don't be bored for a while." If you don't fight iron, you can't make a weapon, and if you don't train a soldier, you can't become a product. Sooner or later, we will have to go on an expedition against Chen Xitian, and if our people don't go to sea to experience the experience, even if we know Chen Xitian's whereabouts, it will be useless. ā€

"But once so many people are gone, how will we deal with this land matter?" Wang Shuang asked.

Yan Long said: "Wen Dadong's family is in the medicinal herb business, and most of his goods are exchanged with the Jurchens from outside the customs. This time, he went out of the customs again to change the medicinal materials, and it may take more than a month to go back and forth. We can already do a lot in this month's time. ā€

Wang Shuang asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do in this month?"

Yan Long said: "Recruit troops, grab money, grab territory!"

......

When he learned that he was "killed" and "rehabilitated", Yan Long's mood was both relaxed and heavy, the relief was that he would no longer have to carry the name of the imperial court prisoner in the future, and the heavy thing was that he didn't know whether this kind of rehabilitation was done by Jinyiwei Liu Qiao, if so, then the forces behind Liu Qiao were too terrible.

However, now that the shackles have been lifted, Yan Long has no scruples.

He decided to raze the gang forces in the surrounding counties and towns of Shitan Town first.

Now his first target is the Xinyuan Gang in Xinping Town!

......

Tan Binh Town borders Stone Beach Town. It shares a coastal pier with the town of Rocky Beach.

-- That is, the one next to the Zuichun Building, which was originally controlled by the Sea Sand Gang, and now falls into the Haifeng Wharf in the pocket of the Sky Gang.

The whole town of Tan Binh is inland, and there is no part of the town that is close to the sea. Its area is much larger than that of Stone Beach Town, but the transportation is far less convenient than that of Stone Beach Town. The most obvious point is that there are many mountains in its territory, and none of the passages in the town are directly connected to the official roads.

In other words, to get out of this town, you need to go around a big circle to get on the "highway" or "national highway".

But it is such a place, but it is a land transportation transit and distribution point from SITC Wharf to the outside world.

This is a very ironic thing.

This is also a deformed product of Chen Xitian, the Sea Sand Gang Alliance and the Changkong Gang's fighting methods.

For a long time, Chen Xitian and the Changkong Gang Shitan Town could not completely eliminate anyone, so as to maintain a delicate balance, the Sea Sand Gang controlled the dock, the Changkong Gang controlled Shitan Town, Chen Xitian and the Sea Sand Gang in order to restrict the Changkong Gang, so they set up a stone gate on the road leading from the dock to Shitan Town, and did not allow caravans to pass through Shitan Town, which was equivalent to forcing many caravans to divert in disguise.

Originally, the mule and horse caravans could go directly to the official road through Shitan Town, but because of a man-made stone gate, they had to detour to Xinping Town, and then from Xinping Town to the post road of other towns, so that they could get on the official road.

Many caravans complained about such a toss, and some people protested against the Sea Sand Gang who erected this stone gate, but it didn't take long for their caravan at sea to be attacked. For a long time, no one mentioned it anymore.

......

This stone gate is now in front of Yan Long, he patted the 10,000-jin giant gate that was already covered with moss and three feet thick, and said to the more than 100 Changkong Gang members who followed behind him: "Knock down this stone gate!"

The stone gate collapsed.

Yan Long said to Wang Shuang beside him: "Tell all the shippers that from today onwards, the road to Shitan Town is open." We, the Sky Gang, welcome all caravans to pass through the town of Rocky Beach, and there are no checkpoints or toll fees!"
