Chapter 127: Stronghold (Part 2)
Ten days later, the seven ships that had been repaired moved toward Yingpu City
Even Fang Xin didn't know that on the 200-kilometer ocean route, two boats were waiting hard on the blue sea.
The sea was very calm. Gradually, the sun set and the moon rose. The hull was shaking gently in the waves. There was no sound on the deck, just looking at the girl on the deck.
A girl smoking a cigarette.
Gradually, fog began to appear on the sea surface again, and gradually became thicker, with water and smoke intersecting, making a slight sizzling sound.
A middle-aged man came over and was about to speak, but the girl raised her head.
"Needless to say, I know that water and food are starting to be insufficient. Let's go to the Kingdom of Saster!" the girl said with a wry smile.
"Miss, won't we go back once?"
"No, Dad's preparation is inadequate. The four boats are 240 of the most elite soldiers, and they are afraid of excessive losses, so they asked us to pick them up. They didn't expect to encounter any accidents. Moreover, we have many people and sailed all the way back. They have gone back once and come out to stay on the road they must pass. They still haven't waited. This time we failed completely." The girl smiled bitterly, glanced at the more than 20 strong men on the boat, and said, "I have tried my best to transfer my father's old subordinates, and even took away all the deposits and property that can be sold quickly. I can't take care of the others."
"Yes, Miss, Lord Kirkby is your father's old friend and will definitely get a pickup." The middle-aged man nodded.
The girl was not so optimistic, but she didn't say anything, just said calmly: "Set up!"
"Yes, Miss."
It was not particularly rare for Fang Xin to enter the port, but half an hour later, the only knights in Putrajaya were dispatched, and even the navy was dispatched to block the port, so that everyone knew that something big was happening.
Let’s put aside these things for now, and Fang Xin was talking to Sir Wendyra Fix in a small room.
"Oh, dear Hamblin, you should discuss this with me." The Jazz said with some concern.
Fang Xin was slightly moved. No matter what intentions he had, he had always been good to him since the Lord regarded him as a descendant of the water. He whispered: "Just, you know, Baron Dave Baronham was attacked and was very angry. As soon as he got ashore, he had called the police to the court in the city."
"Oh, poor Baron, how much has his men lost?"
"Almost all of them were lost. Together with his housekeeper, there were only four people left since the fifty people who went to sea, including only two soldiers." Fang Xin said aloud.
"Oh, no wonder the Baron is so angry!" The Jazz expressed his understanding and said, "What is that? Let's hear it."
Fang Xin then began to say that of course, he did not say that he robbed the other party's fleet first, but how to buy and sell it, making money, and he became a level 1 magician. He bought a second ship together with profit and loan, ready to come back with full cargo, and invited Baron Dave Barnum when he left the port.
"Oh, you're so lucky." Jazz said meaningfully, as if he was looking at a reckless but potential young descendant, but he didn't say anything, just asked: "Have you become a level 1 mage?"
"Yes, I have become a Level 1 Mage in Colin City, so I have a duty to the magicians there."
"Let me tell me." The Jazz didn't care about the others, but was very concerned about becoming a magician, asking questions repeatedly. When Fang Xin answered carefully, he was very satisfied with it, and finally said: "My dear Hamblin. You surprised me very much, yes, very surprised. You are such a magical genius."
After that, he asked about the naval battle again. When he heard the other party bringing four boats and two hundred and forty people, he carefully asked about the situation. Fang Xin naturally described it one by one, making the battle even more intense. At the end, Fang Xin said: "...In fact, I was very tired at that time, but suddenly, I gained magical power, which made me finally defeat the enemy."
"Oh, what power?" said the Jazz with great interest.
"Look!" Fang Xin just thought about it and the wind rose. Originally, the room was half-closed and there was almost no wind, but now, the wind in the room automatically generated.
"Oh my God, you didn't use magic?" The jazz was a little confused at the beginning, and suddenly thought of something and asked quickly.
"Jazz, I didn't use magic, and, look, this is the second type." Fang Xin stretched out his hand, and sure enough, a glimmer of light began to flash in his hand, and then, from nothing to something, a small ball of water appeared in the palm of his palm.
"God, this is a sacred inheritance, and it is also two kinds!" The jazz looked at it in a daze, his straight look made Fang Xin feel uncomfortable.
After a while, the Jazz calmed down: "Oh, dear Hamblin, you really shocked me, oh, what's the use of these powers?"
"The wind can make me move faster. The power of this water seems to have some soothing effect, and it can also make me temporarily increase my strength." Fang Xin replied.
"Oh, the power of instinctive wind control and instinctive water control is incredible. No wonder you can quickly become a magician. This is the gift of the great god!" The jazz calmed down and said excitedly. He seemed to remember something and smiled: "Okay, you can continue talking."
Fang Xin could only continue to say that after he finished speaking, the Jazz nodded and said without any doubt: "Well, you did a very good job and took four boats?"
"Yes, four boats were seized, but one was to Baron Dave Baron Barnum, and, allow me to contribute a boat to you to show my wishes."
"Oh, dear Hamblin, this is not necessary. Do I want your ship? No, these are all your badges of victory. You have to keep it. Oh, I will even give you the original Break Wave." The Sir said, and when he said this, he saw Fang Xin's surprised expression and found that he seemed a little too excited, so he said, "Oh, you don't know that your grandfather and my father are brothers. Yes, they have a very close relationship. Moreover, you were originally part of the Fix family. What is the boat? When you officially return to the Fix family, I believe that the head of the family will entrust you with more responsibilities."
Speaking of this, he even glanced at Fang Xin meaningfully. Fang Xin was shocked, and then he grasped the importance of his current identity. Fortunately, he had already created the bloodline of water and wind, otherwise there would be some problems.
"As for that businessman, you did a good job, and the dead will reduce a lot of trouble." The jazz smiled and said, "What do you want? I will help you get it."
Fang Xin said cautiously: "My dear sir, I already have five boats now, which is enough. No matter how many, I can't find loyal and qualified captains and sailors. As for other shares and stores of the Chamber of Commerce, this is not what I am good at. If I can, I want to obtain those real estates-what do you think?"
"Real estate? Oh, I understand, I understand."
In fact, in this era, due to the prevalence of great voyages, the interests of maritime trade and commerce are far greater than the output of land, so many nobles began to transform from land nobles to commercial nobles, and even sold their ancestral territories to engage in maritime trade.
But for ordinary people, it is still a dream to acquire land and become a nobleman. The Jazz consciously understood Fang Xin's mood, so he said: "Of course, if you want it, I will definitely help you fight for it, but these six small real estates are only 20,000 gold lakes, and I will help you win other things."
Just then, a knock came from outside: "Sir, Mr. Holding of the Court is here to ask for a visit."
"Please come in." The jazz said as he restored the noble's indifference and arrogance.
The gentleman who came in was obviously not a nobleman. He bowed and took off his hat to Jazz and Fang Xin, and then Jazz asked him to sit down politely and said, "Oh, Mr. Holding, why are you here soon? Is there anything wrong?"
"Yes, the court has already made a preliminary judgment," said Mr. Holding.
This surprised both Fang Xin and Sir, who said, "Oh, it's incredible that the court's verdict was so fast!"
"Sir, there is a reason for this. I received a lawsuit from Baron Dave Barnum that the court would of course have to pass the person immediately, but the messenger found that Vincent's daughter had sold a lot of selling wealth a few days in advance, and the important people had already run away - there was no need to be interrogated anymore." Mr. Holding said dryly.
"Oh, it's that Miss Carmelin, it's amazing, ah, how much has she sold? Has the real estate been sold?"
"She sold all the valuable goods, took 70% of them, and took away all the deposits - from the Chamber of Commerce, and brought them up on the excuse of a big deal. In addition, her family originally had six boats, three on the route, and she took away two of them, and one of them was sold, but the real estate did not move, which was too troublesome to sell." Mr. Holding replied: "A preliminary statistics, she took about 70,000 gold lakes, accounting for one-third of all the wealth."
"Oh, I understand." The Jazz breathed a little relieved. After knowing that the court would officially open tomorrow, he nodded and gave Mr. Holding ten gold coins. After he withdrew, the Jazz smiled and said, "Dear Hamblin, don't worry, you will not have less real estate. Moreover, you can also obtain a villa worth 15,000 gold Rick in his house in the city, a store worth 5,000 gold Rick, and a total of 5,000 gold coins!"
When I speak, I am full of confidence.
