Chapter 142
Meiweier was enjoying the coolness under the shade of the trees by the sea, with the breeze blowing her long silver hair. She saw thirty warships coming from afar and stopping at the mouth of the river.
"You, let your soldiers disembark and line up."
Cheng Yu walked from the sea to the beach and said to Wilke on the deck of the flagship.
"Pass the order down, all the squads disembark and line up."
Wilk gave the order to his deputy.
The deputy went to notify others.
Each warship has one hundred soldiers, one hundred soldiers form a squad, and each squad has a squad leader.
Thirty warships, thirty squads, a total of three thousand people, all disembarked and formed thirty small squares on the beach.
"First of all, your thirty warships belong to me; secondly, you are my captives, and you will do hard labor for me in the next few days."
Cheng Yu said to the three thousand navy soldiers.
"Sir, how long will we do hard labor for you?"
If Cheng Yu made them do hard labor for a lifetime, it would be a sad thing.
"It depends on the situation."
Cheng Yu hadn't decided when to let them go.
The three thousand navy soldiers felt cold when they heard this. It was not a good feeling to have their fate in the hands of others.
"Who do you think you are? Why should we do hard labor for you? We are the invincible fleet that defeated countless pirates, and we shoulder the supreme glory."
At this time, a yellow-haired young man said arrogantly.
"If you don't accept it, you can stand alone and stand next to the stone over there."
Cheng Yu's face was gloomy, and he pointed to the stone not far away.
After seeing Cheng Yu's powerful strength, most of the soldiers still had a rough idea in their hearts.
If they stood up, they would definitely be in trouble.
But with three thousand people, the base number was large, and there would always be a few who were not smart enough and didn't know what to do.
Including the yellow-haired young man, several navy soldiers walked to the reef not far away. They thought that if they didn't accept it, Cheng Yu would let them leave.
Cheng Yu looked at the soldiers who walked to the reef. There were six of them in total. These six people should be the thorns in the army.
With a thought, a blue hand suddenly stretched out from the calm sea, grabbed the six people, and dragged them into the sea.
After a while, the sea water was dyed red by blood.
"Okay, the guys who didn't obey have been sent away. Now they should all be convinced." Cheng Yu said lightly.
The others had fear in their eyes and swallowed their saliva. This guy was too cruel.
Wilk, the commander of the Invincible Fleet, immediately admitted his defeat, "We are willing to do hard labor for Lord Cheng Yu."
"I am willing to do hard labor for Lord."
"I am willing to do it too..."
"Long live Lord Cheng Yu."
...
"What level of warriors are your men?" Cheng Yu asked Wilk.
"They are all first-level warriors who can carry things weighing five or six hundred kilograms." Wilk answered truthfully.
Three thousand first-level warriors, perfect coolies!
Cheng Yu was overjoyed. The residents of Dark Night City were all old, weak, sick and disabled, but these navy soldiers were different. They were all first-level warriors, and they were perfect for coolies.
"Go back to the ship and take your rations and marching supplies with you. Follow me and help me build a large manor."
These days, Cheng Yu found a hillside with a good geographical location. The hillside faces the sea and you can see the beautiful sunrise at sea. There are several large hot spring pools and streams next to it. Cheng Yu plans to build a large manor there as a residence.
"Meiweier, I'll leave for a while. Help me keep an eye on them and don't let them run away." Cheng Yu said to Meiweier.
"Okay."
Meiweier lay in the shade of the tree, looking at the sea idly.
Cheng Yu walked up the river and came to the gathering place of the residents of Dark Night City and found Carter.
"Lord, what's the matter?" Carter asked.
"Please inform everyone that there are thirty warships near the seaport. There are more than 800 of you. Every 20 people can get one warship to transport goods or return to Dark Night City."
"Thirty warships? Where did the thirty warships come from?" Carter was surprised and happy.
"Lord Bunick gave them to me." Cheng Yu said expressionlessly.
"???"
Carter was confused. Lord Bunick was not a philanthropist. Why would he give Cheng Yu thirty warships?
"You are responsible for distributing these warships to the residents of Dark Night City. I have other things to do."
"Yes, Lord."
Carter told the residents of Dark Night City the news, and everyone was excited.
The smile will not disappear, but will only shift from the faces of the three thousand navy soldiers to the faces of the eight hundred residents of Dark Night City.
Cheng Yu returned to the seaport. The three thousand navy soldiers had already brought their marching rations and marching supplies and gathered on the beach.
"Follow me."
Cheng Yu led a group of people to the hillside east of Bailu Island.
Walking on the mountain road, those seaThe soldiers were dejected. They were originally soldiers of the Invincible Fleet who were honored, but now they have become prisoners of others.
If they knew this would be the result, they would never invade Cheng Yu's territory.
Two hours later, they arrived at the hillside east of Bailu Island. Cheng Yu asked these people to stop and stay where they were.
It takes a professional architect to build a large manor.
Pis Port is the most prosperous main city among the dozen main cities in this area. There should be architects there.
Cheng Yu brought Meiweier to the seaside, created a translucent bubble, wrapped the two people in it, and controlled the bubble to sink into the sea.
The ocean is Cheng Yu's home court. He controlled the bubble to move towards Pis Port. All the surrounding seawater was pushing the bubble forward, and the speed was no slower than flying.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Yu arrived at Pis Port and found the Pis Port Architecture Association by asking around.
"Excuse me, do you have any architects who can design and build large manors?"
Cheng Yu asked the front desk lady of the Architecture Association.
"Yes, what kind of architect do you want?" The receptionist smiled and answered.
"The better, the better."
"Mr. Woodrow is the best architect in our Pease Harbor. He has designed and built mansions for the mayors of several nearby main cities. You can go find Mr. Woodrow."
"Where does he live?"
"Pease Harbor, 77 Ocean Flow Street."
"Okay, thank you."
Cheng Yu took Meiweier to 77 Ocean Flow Street again.
Dong Dong Dong ~
Knocked on the door of 77 Ocean Flow Street.
A middle-aged maid opened the door, "Sir, may I ask what can I do for you?"
"Is Mr. Woodrow at home? I'm looking for Mr. Woodrow."
"I'm at home, please come in."
The maid took Cheng Yu into the house and came to the reception room. A man with a Mediterranean hairstyle and a monocle in front of his left eye was sitting at the table drinking tea and reading a book.
"Mr. Woodrow, this young gentleman has something to do with you." The maid said to the man with the Mediterranean hairstyle.
Woodrow put down the book in his hand and looked at Cheng Yu, "Who are you?"
"My name is Cheng Yu, I am the mayor of Dark Night City. I would like to ask Mr. Woodrow to help design and build a large manor."
"Dark Night City has a mayor?"
Woodrow has heard about the poverty of Dark Night City, and no noble is willing to take over the land.
"I am a newcomer." Cheng Yu smiled.
"My fee is very expensive, do you have money?"
Dark Night City is so poor, Woodrow guessed that the mayor of Dark Night City is not very rich, so he negotiated the price first to avoid the other party defaulting on the debt.
"How much do you want?"
"I have designed many large manors before. If you want to use the drawings I designed before, the price is 100-200 gold coins. If you want me to redesign the drawings according to the terrain, the price is 500-800 gold coins. You need to bear the construction and material costs yourself."
"Use the existing manor drawings."
Cheng Yu's requirements for the manor are not too high, as long as it is beautiful and habitable.
Woodrow took out a large pile of drawings and documents from the room and piled them on the table. "These are the drawings I designed before. You can choose any large manor you like."
Cheng Yu picked out from the pile of manor drawings.
