The big ship stopped at the pier. A pier was specially built here for the big ship to dock.
Lao Qiao and the others slowly disembarked from the boat, surrounded by Li Muchan and Feng Mingxue. The two young men in purple shirts stepped forward to greet him, clasping their fists and saying, "Here is He Yuzhang. This gentleman looks unfamiliar. I wonder...?"
"Our leader is called Kuang Dao, and so is Li Yida." Old Qiao hummed in a deep voice.
He Yuzhang cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Li, you are polite. I wonder where you are active?"
Li Muchan glanced at him lightly and said nothing proudly. Old Qiao said: "Guifeng Island is our territory!"
He Yuzhang was startled and said in surprise: "Gui Feng Island? Isn't that the territory of senior Tieshou Cheng?"
Lao Qiao snorted: "Brother He, that's Lao Huangli!... The iron hand has been beaten away by our leader a long time ago, and that place is our territory!"
He Yuzhang looked at Li Muchan, cupped his fists and said, "Long time, long time respect!...I wonder what Li Longtou's purpose is in coming to Phoenix Island?"
Li Muchan was too lazy to say more, so Old Qiao said on his behalf: "Our big dragon leader has heard about the name of Phoenix Island for a long time, saying that there are good things for sale here, and we want to broaden our horizons!"
"So that's it, we can buy everything here, as long as you can afford it!" He Yuzhang glanced sideways at Lao Qiao.
Lao Qiao snorted: "We just have more money!"
"That's good, please——!" He Yuzhang smiled.
The two of them led the way, and soon they got to the pier and onto Phoenix Island. Then they walked in, and a lively atmosphere suddenly hit their faces.
The streets of Phoenix Island are very wide and neat. Walking on the streets gives you the feeling of walking in a big city, just like Baiye City. Moreover, the people here are of all kinds, and there should be people of all identities. However, everyone is well-dressed, so there must be no poor people.
.
Surrounded by Lao Qiao and the others, Li Muchan and Feng Mingxue looked very impressive, but they didn't attract any strange looks from everyone, as if they were used to it.
Feng Mingxue stared at the people coming and going, not looking at the vendors' stalls on both sides. Her face was as dark as water, while Li Muchan was smiling, but his attention was focused on both sides.
"Wait a minute!" He raised his hand, and Lao Qiao and the others stopped in a hurry. He Yuzhang and the others who were leading the way also stopped and turned to look.
Li Muchan pointed at the stall next to him. Old Qiao looked at it and said hurriedly: "Faucet, that folding fan?"
Muchan nodded slightly.
Lao Qiao hurriedly pushed aside the people who were shopping nearby, causing everyone to look at him angrily. None of them looked kind, and their eyes looked murderous.
But Lao Qiao came to the stall without even taking a look.
The stall is not big, and there are some messy things on it, including daggers, swords, jewelry, and even calligraphy and paintings. It looks like a grocery store.
The stall owner is a smart young man, 16 years old, but he is experienced and tactful, and he has a good tongue. He boasts about his stuff to the point where it is rare in the sky and hard to find on the earth.
"How do you sell this thing?" Lao Qiao picked up a folding fan next to a dagger, weighed it in his hand, and snorted coldly.
"Oh, this thing..." The young man smiled with a smile on his face, as if he didn't see Old Qiao's cold face, and opened his mouth to say something. Old Qiao waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, just say how much it costs!"
The young man stopped for a moment and smiled helplessly: "Ten taels of silver!"
Lao Qiao took out a silver ingot from his arms and threw it to him: "Take it!"
He picked up the folding fan and turned around. When he came to Li Muchan, a smile suddenly appeared on his cold face. He held the folding fan in his hands and said, "Dragon head."
Li Muchan took it, looked at it carefully up and down, and nodded. This folding fan was made of white jade and had a silk surface. It had a landscape painting on it. It was full of blessings. Li Muchan knew it was a good thing at a glance.
He pulled the silk and found it was tough enough to withstand weapons. It looked good. This folding fan was indeed a weapon.
He was holding a white jade folding fan in his hand and walking slowly and leisurely, looking like a young man.
Feng Mingxue pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head. This look was really lifelike.
After walking for more than twenty steps, Li Muchan suddenly stopped again, put away the folding fan with a snap, and pointed at the stall on the left: "Old Qiao, that hosta!"
Lao Qiao hurriedly said: "Yes, Dragon Head."
Li Muchan opened the folding fan and said, "Brother He, let's go our own way!"
"Okay, please—!" He Yuzhang cursed in his heart. This guy is another nouveau riche, arty and elegant. He is so ridiculous.
But Phoenix Island is very welcoming to such rich guys. Even if they are disdainful, they must not show it. Instead, they must show respect and let them spend more and spend as much as they can here.
Lao Qiao quickly caught up and presented a hosta with his smiling hands. It was green, crystal clear, delicate and warm.
Li Muchan took it and handed it to Feng Mingxue: "Sister, come here!"
Feng Mingxue shook his head and said, "What do I want to do with this!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Sister, your hairpin is too ordinary, change it to this one!"
Feng Mingxue took it helplessly, inserted it next to the original hairpin, then took off the original one and put it in her arms. This wooden hairpin had special meaning.
He Yuzhang slowed down, but Li Muchan didn't buy anything more, and soon came to an inn. There were people coming and going in front of the inn, and it was really lively.
Li Muchan frowned and said, "Little brother, is there no clean place?"
"A clean place?" He Yuzhang turned to look and said with a smile: "This is the largest inn on our island. It has many rooms and a good place."
Li Muchan waved his hand: "No house for sale? I want to buy a house to live in. It's so crowded here and it's really inconvenient!"
"Yes, yes, it's just the price..." He Yuzhang said.
He snorted to himself. He was an ignorant coward. How could the houses here be affordable to ordinary people? It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land costs money.
Li Muchan said: "It will be easy to handle, Old Qiao!"
Lao Qiao nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, faucet, how many should I buy?"
"Hmm..., two seats are a bit crowded, let's just have three seats." Li Muchan said.
Lao Qiao said: "Yes."
He Yuzhang hurriedly said: "Wait!...Mr. Li, the houses on our island are not cheap, so it's better to be cautious."
Li Muchan laughed, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not, as long as I have it, money is not a problem!"
"An ordinary house is at least ten thousand miles away." He Yuzhang said.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows: "Ten thousand taels...it's really not cheap. Old Qiao, go ahead!"
Lao Qiao said: "Yes, the dragon head will wait a moment."
He waved, and two middle-aged men followed him. They were both skilled in martial arts and had bright eyes. They were acting as bodyguards.
He Yuzhang was really shocked this time. Ten thousand taels was not a small amount, it was half a boatload of silver, which was astonishing. Very few people could afford the houses on the island.
This time he bought three cars, which cost at least 30,000 miles. It seems that these guys are really fat!
Li Muchan said: "Brother He, take us around first!"
He Yuzhang understood that he wanted to wait for Lao Qiao to buy a house and live in it directly. This Li Yidao was really impressive. He was so called rich and wealthy. I saw a lot of people like him!
"Okay, let's go to Phoenix Island." He Yuzhang said with a smile.
Since he is a big fish, he cannot be neglected. He must be well entertained and kept, so that he can be rewarded himself.
He took Li Muchan and the others to walk slowly and looked over the entire Phoenix Island. Li Muchan and the others learned a lot.
Phoenix Island is indeed extremely prosperous, even better than in big cities. Things here are of high quality and low price. Except for houses, everything here is cheaper than outside.
It also has a complete range of products, and everything is available. There is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy. However, the labor here is expensive, and the prices are also high, so it is best not to live here.
The original residents of Phoenix Island all had extremely high incomes and could live comfortably just by renting out their houses. They were all assigned houses, and just one house was enough for the pirates from outside to work for half a lifetime.
Li Muchan looked around and thought about the plans of Phoenix Island. Logically speaking, Phoenix Island was so rich that no one would want to take advantage of them. However, after seeing He Yuzhang's martial arts, he understood a little bit.
The disciples' strength is astonishing, and even if the pirates join forces, they can't beat them.
But where did the money from Phoenix Island go? Li Muchan had a vague guess. Phoenix Island might just be a sect, just like Taihuatang was to the Song family.
From the outside, Taihuatang seems to be very powerful, occupying half of the city, and making a lot of money every day, but most of their money goes to the Song family.
Phoenix Island may also be a branch of a major force, and its background is definitely not simple. Otherwise, how could it be safe and sound if it was so fat and oily?
After spending most of the day wandering around the entire Phoenix Island, Lao Qiao and the others came to find them. The house had been bought and they were leading the way.
He Yuzhang and the others followed them to the house that Lao Qiao and the others bought. When they saw that they were in a busy city but close to the seaside, quiet and prosperous, they took a deep breath.
A house like this in this location costs 30,000 to 40,000 taels!
As law enforcement disciples, they have a very good income. They can earn one thousand taels of silver per year, which is amazing, but they can't afford to buy a house here.
They were in front of a house. Old Qiao said: "Longtou likes to be quiet. There are no outsiders here. As long as you walk through this path, you will reach Zhengping Street. There are woods behind it and the sea outside the forest...Longtou likes fishing, and it is very convenient!"
"
Li Muchan nodded with satisfaction: "Yeah, not bad."
Lao Qiao continued: "The leader lives here, and we live on opposite sides. We spent a total of 140,000 taels!"
Li Muchan waved his hands and said, "Okay, you go ahead. Old Qiao will go back and bring the maids over. Then he will buy a shop and put in the rags we got."
"Okay." Lao Qiao agreed and waved his hands, and everyone dispersed and followed Lao Qiao to see the houses on both sides. Everyone was in high spirits, but did not dare to speak loudly. It seemed that Li Muchan's terror had penetrated deeply into everyone, and they were all speechless.
Dare to breathe.
Li Muchan said: "Brother He, come in and sit down and accompany us all the way around. Thank you for your hard work."
He Yuzhang hesitated: "Li Longtou, we still have a mission, so don't bother us."
Li Muchan waved his hand: "It's not too late, let's go, we are new here, and we need Brother He to give us some guidance!"
He Yuzhang looked at this house. It was very grand. The people who lived here were definitely not ordinary people. It was his dream to buy a house here.
The opportunity was rare, so he declined for a moment, then agreed, and then followed Li Muchan into the house.
Li Muchan made up his mind to get something useful from He Yuzhang, and then good wine and food were served. He, He Yuzhang, and another law enforcement disciple Chen Weinan sat together, drinking and eating food, and soon they became brothers.
Although He Yuzhang and Chen Weinan were tight-lipped, Li Muchan had his own mind and could read what they were thinking. He could ask questions unintentionally while drinking, and he would often get what he wanted to know.
Gradually, Li Muchan has a clearer understanding of the strength of Phoenix Island. There are a thousand law enforcement disciples on Phoenix Island. The thousand disciples are divided into two groups: light and dark. There are seven hundred in the dark and only three hundred in the light. And these three hundred
Disciples patrol the entire Phoenix Island every ten days, and deal with it immediately if something happens.
The task of these law enforcement disciples is to deal with those who violate the island's rules. Whether they are foreign pirates or island residents, as long as they violate the rules, they will be punished.
Pirates who violate the rules will be punished either lightly or severely depending on the severity of the case. Those who violate the rules will be expelled from Phoenix Island and will never be allowed to enter again, while those who are more serious will be killed directly.
Island residents who violate regulations will be fined in minor cases and expelled from Phoenix Island in serious cases.
In fact, many pirates now are originally residents of Phoenix Island. They were expelled from the island because of violations, and they became pirates.
These people often have excellent martial arts skills, ruthless methods, and are proficient in conspiracy and conspiracy. They can quickly stand out among pirates and become the best.
Many people have become pirate leaders, and they all have a unique feeling for Phoenix Island. They are extremely attached to it, with little hatred, only envy.
As long as they have money, they can buy a house and become residents of the island again. However, the houses on Phoenix Island are extremely expensive, and they need to be very rich to become pirates.
Li Muchan listened to this and admired in his heart, the island owner Huang Chuguang is really powerful and worthy of his talent and strategy. In this way, the pirates and Phoenix Island are one family, forming a big network.
It is not easy to break through this network, not only interests, but also emotions are involved.
In the evening, He Yuzhang and the others left Li Muchan's house drunkenly. Li Muchan was already very satisfied and had learned a lot about the inside story.
He knew Huang Chuguang's temper and some of his usual habits. Huang Chuguang was a simple man. He usually lived a simple life, practicing martial arts, reading books, handling affairs, and nothing else. He was like an ascetic, and he usually ate simply.
Eating big fish and meat is just an ordinary meal, which is about the same as that of an average family.
This has won the love and respect of all the disciples. He has such wealth, but he can do this. In their eyes, the island owner is no different from a god, and they can sacrifice themselves for him at any time.
Li Muchan thought to himself that he could not do this. Although he had seen through everything and was detached from the outside world, he still wanted to enjoy the pleasure of the five senses, especially eating.
Huang Chuguang's behavior must be ambitious and ambitious.
Early the next morning, after practicing his sword skills, he and Feng Mingxue left the house, walked on Phoenix Island, and came to the largest restaurant on Phoenix Island, Yingfeng Tower.
When he first arrived, the first thing he did was to understand the details and listen to more news. He didn't want to act rashly. No matter how strong his martial arts were, sometimes it would be useless.
The restaurant was the best place to hear the news, so the two of them asked their men to follow them. These guys were just dogs and couldn't get enough of the dinner, and they were all so vicious and vicious that it was really boring.
The two of them arrived at the restaurant, and the waiter enthusiastically led the way and sat down at a table. They originally wanted to find a seat by the window, but unfortunately people didn't want to talk to him, so the window seat was already full.
They sat down at a table in the middle. Li Muchan casually ordered a few signature dishes and ordered a jar of wine. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a muffled sound of "Bang!" and a burly man slapped the table and roared angrily.
: "The person named Kong is too deceptive!"
He is tall and strong, with a full beard and short hair that stands on end. He is untidy, but his eyes are as cold as lightning, and he is well-educated.
Someone advised: "Boss Li, let's forget it. They are outnumbered, so let's just suffer the consequences of being dumb!"
"***, that's a thousand taels of silver. I led a group of brothers and worked hard for half a year to rob it, but they swallowed it in one go!" the burly man said angrily.
Another person advised: "Okay, Lao Li, it would be great if Boss Kong spares your life!"
"Humph, he must have the ability!" Boss Li sneered, stroking his beard and humming: "He really wants to kill me, but with his three-legged cat skills, it's just a dream!"
Everyone shook their heads and laughed. If it was really the skill of the three-legged cat, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.
An old man stroked his goatee and said with a smile: "Little Liz, this time it's just your fault for not being careful. But don't worry. It is said that the owner of Huangdao has deliberately set a rule to divide the territory. Each person has a piece of territory. They cannot exceed the territory, let alone
The black man eats the black man."
"Hey, it's impossible to stop gangsters from eating gangsters!" Someone shook his head in disapproval.
The old man said with a smile: "If you are really cheated, you can complain to Island Master Huang. Island Master Huang will send someone to investigate, and he will really punish you!"
A handsome young man said unceremoniously: "Old man He, how can you complain if you've already been eaten? In our industry, we rely on our strength to speak, and rules are useless!"
"Xiao Wu's words are right. It's true to have a hard fist, and others can't be trusted!" someone praised.
Li Muchan narrowed his eyes slightly. Huang Chuguang's ambitions are not small. He wants to become a government official. Is it possible that he really wants to form a pirate alliance?
A bald man said lazily: "If someone robs you, just take it back. If you can't take it back, just go to someone else to steal it. There is no need to fight hard! ... The harvest this time is very average. I will leave tomorrow and grab more quickly."
Tickets, life has been really boring lately."
"There don't seem to be many treasures coming out recently, it's really boring," someone said.
"I heard that Lao Sha and the others made a good sword. It looks like it's made of ice. It's very strange. Have you seen it before?"
Someone said: "I've seen it before. It's really good. It's fast and light, but it's a little short."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows and looked at Feng Mingxue. Feng Mingxue shook her head. She was almost finished with her sword now and had no interest in other swords.
Someone shouted: "I heard that the Hai family's fleet is about to leave, let's join hands to make a vote?"
"Let's forget about the Hai family's fleet."
The bald man laughed, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Old Wu, look at your courage, what's wrong with the Hai family? The Hai family is overbearing and hateful, and they do bad things. They are obviously rich, but they are doing evil things secretly. Let's
If you rob it, you will be doing justice to God!"
