"Then why are there so many sea ships staying here?" Zhen Xing asked strangely. It stands to reason that people who discovered gold mines would guard this place strictly.
Visitors reported back: "The ships that followed came to this new continent and needed to rest. When they saw the stranded ships, they thought the sailors here needed help, so they landed in this area, and they discovered the gold here.
Mine. After all, everyone is digging for gold, and there is no way to hide such a thing."
It turned out that the stranded sailors had been digging for gold here for a month, but soon the ships behind them caught up. After they came to this strange continent, they arrived at a big-money ship. Naturally, they found a way to dock it.
.
Originally they wanted to get some supplies, but soon they discovered the gold mine. The two sides almost fought because of this matter. Fortunately, the manpower strength of the two sides was not much different. In the end, the two gangs agreed that one person would occupy a section of the river.
Come dig for gold, don't disturb each other.
How can such an undisturbed life last long? There are more and more fleets behind them. Although some ships pass them, more fleets stay here.

This resulted in more and more people discovering the gold here. Almost all of the dozens of sea-going ships that traveled there at one time stayed here.
No one wanted to move on, but they were eager to dig for gold here. In order to dig for gold, they even formed a coalition and captured a savage tribe of several thousand people. They built a simple dock and town here.
.The huge temptation of gold made them unwilling to move forward.
After hearing this story, Zhen Xing laughed and said: "This is a good thing for us. One gold mine has reduced our number of dozens of competitors. There will never be such a good thing in the world."
"My lord, don't you want this gold?" the sailor who was investigating the news asked anxiously. They were fighting for their lives at sea because they wanted to get more real gold and silver. The other sailors were also excited and were waiting for Zhen Xing to give the order.
They also occupied a section of the river to collect gold!
But Zhen Xing said: "No matter how much gold there is here, how much can we dig out? My Zhen family has billions of dollars in property. If I exchange them all for gold, I can pile them up into a mountain of gold. This little gold means a lot to me."
Nothing.
But such words cannot appease the sailors who are already ready to take action. No matter how much your Zhen family's property is, it has nothing to do with them, but the gold dug here is real. Many sailors have united and want to stay here to dig for gold.
Zhen Xing immediately comforted people and said: "As long as you follow me to find the rubber tree and return to Daqian at the same time, I will give each of you an additional 1.5 million yuan. This money is worth more than 100 kilograms of gold. We can dig the gold ourselves."
These more than 100 kilograms of gold? But who can guarantee that he will not be robbed by others? Jincai is so exciting, let alone in this lawless and wild land."
At this moment, a small boat approached their ship, and Zhen Xing asked these people to come up.
The three of them boarded Zhen Xing's ship. One of them said arrogantly: "We discovered the gold in this area first. No fleet is allowed to stay here. You should leave here as soon as possible."
A sailor was unconvinced and said: "You think you are the imperial court of Daqian and you don't allow us to stay here. I will stay here. What can you do to me?"
The man said arrogantly: "I'm warning you, we have more than 3,000 people here now. If you don't obey our orders, don't blame us for sinking your ship! As you said, this is a wilderness. In this land, the laws of Daqian cannot be controlled. Hundreds of people die on the sea, and no one can find out if a ship sinks!"
Zhen Xing heard this and sneered: "I don't believe that you can organize more than 3,000 people with dozens of small broken ships. Not to mention that you have split into dozens of groups. Whether you can unite is a question. And my sea-going ship is bigger than any of yours. It was originally a large warship. It is more than three times stronger than ordinary sea-going ships. It also has 100 huge cannons. Do you think your shabby merchant ships have any power? Which one can be worth one shot from my battleship? This pissed me off, so I will directly bombard our port and sink your rotten ship!"
But the visitor was not worried, but still said arrogantly: "You only have one battleship, and we have 30 ships and thousands of artillery pieces in total. Do you think we will be afraid of you? Don't think of anything to sow discord." , we have decided to unite together to protect our gold mines. I do not believe that your warship can match the power of our dozens of warships and thousands of artillery pieces. If your warship dares to approach the port, Just be prepared to receive our thousands of artillery pieces!"
After finishing speaking, he took out the red flag in his hand and waved it several times on the ship. The ships in the port were moving slowly, from several columns to horizontal columns, and the muzzles of the guns were also facing them. There were also several ships on the high ground in the port. Ten artillery pieces were pointed at him. Obviously they were well prepared.
Of course, the original maritime merchants wanted to monopolize this gold mine, but unfortunately with the arrival of the second and third ships, they found that this was impossible.
And because the route is public, more and more ships will pass by here in the future. Their idea at the time was to dig as many gold mines as possible.
But when the 30th sea-going ship arrived here, these captains found that if they did not unite, the gold mine would be divided into more and more pieces, and their interests would be less and less.
So the captains of all 30 sea-going ships joined together and formed an alliance. On land, they plundered the surrounding savage tribes and captured the savages to dig gold mines for them. On the ocean, they used their huge combined force to They used their power to drive away other merchants who came here. And the effect of this was indeed not very good. They had already driven away more than a dozen ships.
Facing so many artillery pieces, Zhen Xing and the others broke out in cold sweat. The pirates they had fought against before were basically unable to withstand their artillery bombardment. Such a firecracker was something they had never experienced before.
Therefore, both Zhen Xing and his men were watching this scene with cold sweat, for fear that the artillery on the opposite side would fire hundreds of rounds.
At this time Zhen Quan came forward and said: "Don't fire, we will leave immediately!"
They originally wanted to leave here, but the sailors were unwilling to give up the gold mines like this. But now facing hundreds of artillery pieces, these sailors did not dare to make any more noise.
After the three people got off the boat, they immediately turned around and left this sad place.
