Chapter 145
"Hey, isn't this Captain Wilke, the commander of the Invincible Fleet? I haven't seen you for a few months. Why are you so thin? Don't you like eating?"
Seeing Wilke doing the work of plastering, the pirate leader Jack, with a mean smile on his face, mocked him.
Five months ago, Jack's pirate group was chased and beaten by the Invincible Fleet, and he met Wilke once.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for five months, the arrogant commander of the Invincible Fleet has become a plasterer. How happy is Jack's heart.
"Why are you barking here? Weren't you also caught by Lord Cheng Yu to do hard labor?"
Wilke said disdainfully.
"I was born poor and used to be a hard laborer, unlike you, Captain Wilke, who is born a nobleman." Jack said sarcastically.
Being caught by Cheng Yu to do hard labor, Jack was depressed just now, but now the depressed mood is swept away.
How can this be called plastering?
This is simply the greatest fun in the world!
"Captain Wilk, I want to play with you happily."
Jack shamelessly approached Wilk with a mean smile on his face.
"Get out, stay away from me."
Wilk roared at Jack.
"No, I want to play with you."
Jack kept getting close to Wilk, deliberately disgusting Wilk.
As a glorious naval commander, Wilk was more uncomfortable than dying to play with the notorious pirate leader.
~
As a large port city, Pease Harbor has a complete range of goods.
Cheng Yu went to Pease Harbor to purchase a lot of furniture and bedding, and brought back a ship full of tables, chairs, benches, curtains, quilts, sheets and other things to Bailu Island.
The warship docked at the shore, and Cheng Yu put these things into the newly built large manor and decorated it when he had time.
Time passed day by day.
Under the command of architect Woodrow, with 3,000 navy, more than 100 pirates, and more than 800 residents of Dark Night City, the town was built very quickly.
The navy soldiers are all first-class warriors. One person can lift hundreds of pounds of stone and work very efficiently.
Unknowingly, a week passed.
The town streets are initially formed. On both sides of the street, more than a dozen beautiful wooden and stone houses are rising from the ground.
There are also some semi-finished houses.
Whether it is a country or a region, if you want to develop, you must have pillar industries, such as oil, real estate, semiconductors, and then rely on pillar industries to form an industrial chain.
Through this period of observation, Cheng Yu found that Bailu Island is not only suitable for farming, but also for tourism.
Agriculture and tourism can be regarded as the pillar industries of Bailu Island, plus some entertainment industries.
In the afternoon, Cheng Yu sat next to those semi-finished houses and supervised the work of the navy and pirates.
A resident of Dark Night City came to Cheng Yu and handed him a letter, "Lord, I just met a passing merchant ship on the beach. Someone asked me to pass this letter to you."
"Letter?"
Cheng Yu took the letter and opened the envelope to see that it was written by the great lord named Bunik.
"I am the Lord of the Northern Wind Territory, Bunic Karmo. I heard that my 3,000 sailors were trapped by you on Bunic Island and forced to do hard labor. I want to pay to redeem them. If you agree, I will meet at the Lord's Mansion of Cuisi City in three days."
Cheng Yu originally had 10,000 gold coins. Last time, he gave more than 4,000 gold coins to the residents of Dark Night City as resettlement fees for settling in Bailu Island. Then he hired architect Woodrow and purchased various furniture. Now he has less than 5,000 gold coins left.
I didn't expect these 3,000 sailors to be so valuable. Not only can they exploit their labor, but they can also get a ransom from their master.
However, Cuisi City is Bunic's territory. Bunic invited Cheng Yu to Cuisi City for negotiations, which is obviously a Hongmen Banquet.
"Human, you seem very happy?" Meiweier on the side noticed the change in Cheng Yu's mood.
"Of course I am happy when someone gives me money."
Cheng Yu has absolute power. If it is really a Hongmen Banquet, let them know what it means to turn against Tiangang.
"Who gave you money?"
Meiweier looked at Cheng Yu in surprise.
This guy has such a bad conscience, he doesn't look like a popular person.
"A good man gave me 3,000 free laborers and 31 free warships, and now he wants to give me money for free."
"For such a good man, I can only say that good people will have a peaceful life."
There was a hint of helplessness in Cheng Yu's tone, as if the other party had insisted on giving him these things.
"Is it true?"
Meiweier usually doesn't care much about Cheng Yu's affairs, and doesn't know the grudge between Cheng Yu and Lord Bunik.
"Three days later, that good man invited me to Cuisi City for a banquet. Do you want to go?" Cheng Yu asked Meiweier.
"What is a banquet?"
Meiweier didn't quite understand the meaning of a banquet.
"A banquet is"Is it as good as yours?" "It's definitely not as good as mine." "No." Meiweier was used to Cheng Yu's food, so she had a picky appetite and had no interest in banquets. "Okay, I'll go by myself." If it was before, Cheng Yu would definitely take Meiweier with him, but now he has the power of a fifth-level warrior, and he has the artifact of the God of Waves and Tides, so he is not afraid at all. ~ Three days later, Cheng Yu came to the seaside and went to Cuisi City alone. Raising his right arm, the trident pattern on his right arm burst into blue light, creating a bubble and wrapping himself up. Cheng Yu controlled the bubble to sink into the sea and move at high speed in the sea, no slower than Meiweier's flying speed. Cuisi City is a coastal city close to the sea, about five or six kilometers away from the sea.
Cheng Yu landed on the beach outside Cuisi City. There was a small fishing village in front of him. He asked the villagers about the approximate location of Cuisi City and walked towards Cuisi City.
Entering Cuisi City, he came to the Cuisi City Lord's Mansion.
A middle-aged butler wearing a black suit and white gloves was waiting at the door of the mansion.
Cheng Yu walked straight to the door of the mansion and said to the middle-aged butler: "I am Cheng Yu, the Lord of Dark Night City, and I am here to negotiate with Lord Bunick."
"Please come in."
The middle-aged butler knew that Cheng Yu would come in advance and led Cheng Yu into the City Lord's Mansion.
Today, the City Lord's Mansion is guarded very strictly. Every few meters, there is a heavily armored soldier holding a giant axe and wearing a silver helmet.
"Is your City Lord's Mansion always so heavily guarded?" Cheng Yu asked the butler.
"Yes, after all, it is the mansion of the Lord of the City, so it is naturally guarded more strictly. "
"Okay."
The middle-aged butler took Cheng Yu through the corridor and came to the reception hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
Five middle-aged men sat in front of the table, and more than a dozen butlers and maids stood around.
The five middle-aged men were surprised to see Cheng Yu coming.
Such an obvious trap, they thought Cheng Yu would not come.
Now that Cheng Yu is here, there can only be two situations, either Cheng Yu is a fool, or Cheng Yu has absolute confidence.
Bunik, who was sitting at the top, had cold sweat on his forehead, "City Lord Cheng Yu, I admire your courage and you really dare to come to the banquet."
"Haha, I also admire your courage and you dare to invite me for a meeting."
Cheng Yu sat directly at the negotiation table.
Hearing this and seeing Cheng Yu's calm expression, Bunik felt that this was a dangerous person.
