Late at night, the president's office in Xintian Building is brightly lit...
With Gu Xiaoyue's style, she often still doesn't leave work until this time, which proves that the new century has encountered difficulties.
Ning Dazui and Yan He were still sitting on the sofa. Sister Mei, Chu Chu, Bingbing and Xiaojia were all recalled, along with the information fed back by Mad Dog Dragon.
"Can't even handle cucumbers?" Sister Mei asked in surprise.
Gu Xiaoyue frowned deeply: "This result is actually what I expected."
Yan He said: "After all, An Zeng is from the same group of people as Dazang, and he has his strong capital."
This sounds reasonable, but in fact it is not at all. It is easy to understand if you make a simple assumption. If the person who replaced Mad Dog Dragon on the Shadow Island during the day was Mr. Zheng, do you think he would dare to be so unreasonable?
To put it bluntly, the new president of the new century who was bullied by the bloody elite is just a yellow-haired girl. He secretly did not take you, Gu Xiaoyue, seriously.
Sister Mei asked curiously: "Is An Zeng really so tough?"
Gu Xiaoyue nodded: "Well, Cucumber has clearly told me that we are going to spend money to buy the development rights beforehand. There is no need for him to ask. It is nonsense to ask."
Yan He sighed: "Is it going to be solved by force?"
In his mind, the power of money is far greater than that of force. If money can't solve the problem, then the next best thing is to do it.
Ning Dazui suddenly said: "Force may not be able to solve it. Shadow Island is an island after all, not a territory on land."
This is also true. Although New Century is very powerful, it is limited to land, and the right to speak at sea is even worse than that of the Golden Eagle Society.
Gu Xiaoyue pondered for a long time: "If this matter continues according to my intention, the involvement will become bigger and bigger..."
She suddenly raised her head and looked at the sofa: "Xiao Ai!"
Xiaojia stood up immediately: "Sister Gu!"
Gu Xiaoyue said: "I rarely let you go out. This time I decided to make an exception and let you go to Shadow Island. Are you confident?"
Xiaojia nodded: "Sister Gu, don't worry, I have no problem at all."
Sister Mei looked at Gu Xiaoyue with some surprise. She knew that Gu Xiaoyue was particularly fond of Xiaojia, and she also knew that Xiaojia's strength was not even inferior to that of Hu Weiwei. Letting Xiaojia out now would undoubtedly make things worse.
Gu Xiaoyue and Mr. Zheng have completely different styles in making major decisions. Mr. Zheng likes to gather everyone together to ask for suggestions one by one, while Gu Xiaoyue likes to think independently and make decisions quickly.
It’s not that Gu Xiaoyue is prone to being hot-headed because of her arbitrary actions, but Mr. Zheng is good at the art of compromise. Gu Xiaoyue is even more capable of making decisions on the spot.
Will the two families really fight this time? Sister Mei expressed doubts.
At the same time, the tower at the Shadow Island Port was at the highest point. An Zeng stood on the embankment and looked into the distance. From time to time, sporadic lights lit up on the sea, and ships kept coming into the port.
This place is indeed the same as the original Jinqiao Town. It became famous in just a few days. Players passing by on the sea came here one after another.
"I think this hard cucumber is just that." An Hui complained dissatisfiedly, "I heard that this person is very powerful, but in the end, he was dismissed by you with just a few words, big brother, and he is drinking happily in the bar right now.
Woolen cloth."
An Zeng turned her head and glanced at him, not bothering to say anything to him.
If you know something, you will understand it; if you don’t understand it, you will make random judgments.
The minesweeper captain next to him suddenly said: "It's not that he really wants to drink and go clubbing, but now he has nothing else to do except this."
"Oh?" An Hui asked curiously: "Is he really in the mood to drink?"
An Zeng sighed: "A hard cucumber now represents more than just the New Century Plenary Session. His appearance here is equivalent to Gu Xiaoyue's personal visit. It is impossible for him to do something with us. If he does this, he will be inferior and let others
Just watch the joke."
He paused and continued: "The reason why he stayed for a few days is to wait for the follow-up actions in the new century."
The minesweeper captain said: "Brother An, I'm afraid we really have to fight this time, right?"
An Zeng nodded with a solemn expression: "After all, the New Century is no longer the New Century led by Mr. Zheng. Many people speak highly of Gu Xiaoyue. Even the president agrees with her. This woman is not what you and I imagined.
It is so easy to deal with them, not to mention that there are so many masters in the new century, the problem now is who will be their next one?"
The lonely man also spoke: "Now the patrol force in the construction area on the island has been strengthened. Brothers basically work three shifts 24 hours a day. Not to mention the port. In addition, the headquarters has sent a fleet to support. It is expected to be the day after tomorrow at the latest.
At night, the strength of our bloody elite on the island will exceed 5,000, and there will be more than 1,000 other people landing on the island. Even the Eastern Dynasty may not dare to start a war rashly, right? Besides, the strength at sea in the New Century is too ordinary."
An Zeng nodded: "The cards look exactly like what you said, but I'm just afraid of accidents."
"Accident?" He hesitated to get a bottle, "The fleet we rented will also arrive tomorrow night. I still don't believe that there is someone on the sea who dares to attack the cargo ship of the Eastern Dynasty? You think your level is too high, don't you?"
An Zeng waved his hand: "These are not things you worry about. You should take better precautions in the past two days. Ships entering and leaving the port must be strictly inspected. In the other section, you must accompany Hard Cucumber Xiaohui seriously. Whatever he asks for, as long as it is not excessive
, try to satisfy him as much as possible. After these ten days and a half, the new century will not be able to make waves."
His idea is actually very good. The Shadow Island is very large. The construction area planned by Scarlet Elite is twice the size of Jinqiao Town. The top priority is to build it as quickly as possible. Once the construction is completed, it means that the sea
The business card is created.
This is very similar to the situation in Jinqiao Town. Once you have a reputation and reputation, it would be very unwise for others to find trouble. For example, it is like the prosperous Fulei Port in the north. You throw a missile and flatten it.
You will cause public outrage.
If New Century wants to regain its place, it must nip the bloody elite's development plan in the cradle.
The sky will light up soon, and today's weather will look very bad. Once it rains on the sea in winter, cold rain and thick fog will form, and visibility will become very low.
Five sailing ships were slowly moving in a V-shape on the sea. This was the Scarlet Elite's own fleet, carrying nearly 1,000 players, the vast majority of whom were combat professionals, and there were many experts.
This fleet set off from the Sky City and headed all the way to Shadow Island. The leader of the fleet was Vice President Ma Rufei.
Now Ma Rufei is worrying in the cockpit of the main ship: "Have you listened to the Star Dream Radio program? It didn't say what the weather conditions were like these two days?"
"The radio said that there will be sunshine at noon. The fog should have dispersed by then, and our speed will increase." The person who answered was called the Demon of Light, who was actually the captain of the fleet, because he was a bloody elite who always sailed
Players who engage in maritime activities have rich maritime experience.
Ma Rufei said: "Can you increase the speed? The situation on Shadow Island is very delicate these days. It's best if we arrive early."
The Demonic Face of Light looked troubled: "Brother Ma, I suggest you don't speed up."
Ma Rufei said: "Why?"
The Demon of Light explained: "First of all, it's foggy, and there are too many risks on the sea. If we randomly hit a spot or a monster comes out, it will affect the route. Secondly, this southwest sea is unfamiliar to us.
, after all, we can’t compare with the Eastern Dynasty’s fleet yet, I always think it’s more appropriate to wait for the fog to clear before speeding up.”
Ma Rufei sighed: "Okay!"
The Demon of Light patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "There is no need to rush. Come on, let's go out and have a cigarette."
To put it bluntly, the Scarlet Elite ship is a very primitive special wooden ship. The hull is very large and relies on the wind power of the mast and sails. It also has a traditional crystal source drive system at the tail, but that system is generally for emergency use.
Use it as little as possible.
The two came to the front deck, and the thick fog drifted up from the sky. They felt that their faces were sticky. After lighting the cigarette, they couldn't even take two puffs and they were soaked.
"What a damn weather!" Ma Rufei couldn't help but cursed secretly.
At this time, a voice came from the observation post above: "Brother Guang, something seems wrong in the sea ahead."
"What's going on?" The light demon immediately became nervous.
As an experienced seaman at sea, the first reaction of the Light Demon in such extreme weather is to listen to the sounds and look at the sea surface.
The main ship is now in the leading position. It stands to reason that as long as it is not windy or rainy in the deep sea, the sea surface will be relatively calm and will not generate too big waves. However, at this moment, there are ripples on the water surface in front that are not easy to detect. This is really very important.
Only experienced sailors can make keen discoveries.
Then I rushed to the front deck and pricked up my ears to listen. In the thick fog, I could faintly hear the sound of "crash", which sounded like the sound of waves but also like the sound of wind and sail flags. It made a sound from time to time, which seemed normal.
But the next moment, the Demon of Light suddenly shouted: "Quickly sound the battle alarm, there are enemy ships! There are enemy ships approaching us!"
Ma Rufei was stunned for a moment, then followed the Demon of Light and ran towards the cockpit quickly.
The alarms on the five ships quickly made a "buzzing" noise. This was the alarm sound inside the bloody elite cabin. It was designed to remind all crew members that large enemy units were approaching and to enter combat status as soon as possible.
Three minutes later, everyone in the cockpit widened their eyes. Sure enough, a looming shadow appeared in the thick fog. Looking carefully, ten sailboats were spread out in a semi-arc formation on the sea, just blocking the bloody elite.
According to the heading, each ship is five stories high, and the hull is spread out laterally. Judging from this posture, it is estimated that a fight will begin.
The Demon of Light calmed down, put the intercom to his mouth, and the voice was quickly transmitted through the top-level broadcast: "There is a bloody and elite transport fleet here. Which guild's fleet is in front of it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, ten ships raised the big flags on the central mast almost at the same time. Each flag had a black flag with two knives holding up a skull.
The Demon of Light was immediately dumbfounded. Damn it, it turned out to be a pirate ship! (To be continued...)
