father, ” Zhang Jin said, ” you have seen through Shen Lang’s plot. Why didn’t you expose him and stop him? ”
“Why should I stop him?” Zhang Ye asked. On the contrary, I have to cooperate with him and completely destroy several families in one fell swoop, completely removing all the obstacles for the new governance and making unprecedented contributions.”
“Didn’t he want to annihilate Chou Tianwei’s pirate group? Wasn’t he going to kill the entire clan of the palace of the Earl of Jinhai? Cooperate with him!”
“Shen Lang’s net is going to bury the Pirate King and the Tang family. As for my net, it’s going to bury everyone!”
“By the way, Xu Qianqian is not dead,” Zhang Ye added.
Zhang Pu’s expression changed drastically. He shouted, ” “Where is she?”
zhang ye said, ” chun hua just sent us some information. xu qianqian has successfully infiltrated chou yao ‘er’s side. she has also become the closest person to her. ” If I’m not wrong, she should have already colluded with Shen lang. ”
“How did this happen?” Zhang Pu asked. I heard it very clearly that night. She was already burned to death.”
Zhang Ye said, ” I’ve already sent people to investigate the ruins of the Zhang family. There’s a secret room below Xu Qianqian’s embroidered tower. There are a few water buckets inside. When the fire broke out, she probably hid in the secret underground room to escape.
“Then I’ll find a way to kill her now,” Zhang Pu said.
Zhang Ye said,”how are you going to kill her when she’s right beside Chou Yao ‘er?” Who can defeat Chou Yao ‘er? are you going to ask Zhong chuke, li qianqiu, or Yan nanfei to make a move?”
Zhang Jin said, ” Shen lang must have a plan for letting Xu Qianqian stay by Chou Yao ‘er’s side. We must destroy it. We can’t let him succeed.
we have to let him succeed, ” Zhang Ye said. otherwise, with Chou Yao ‘er guarding the city, who can take down the raging tide city? ”
..................
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had returned 800000 gold coins.
The news of the Golden storm quickly spread throughout the world.
All the influential people in the world were completely speechless at first, not knowing how to react.
The capital did not make any noise about this either.
There were a few censors who impeached Shen lang for being overbearing and asked the king to punish him. However, all of them were like stones that sank into the sea.
Immediately after, the scandal of the assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites being suspected of cheating in the imperial examination broke out.
Suddenly, the entire capital was in an uproar. Countless people were shouting about fighting and killing. Everyone’s eyes turned to look.
However, to the people of the world, the fraud case of an Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites was not as exciting as Shen Lang’s case.
After a brief silence, the public opinion exploded.
Countless people were discussing this matter.
Countless people were describing the scene of 800000 gold coins pouring down.
Everyone described the scene in an extremely exaggerated manner, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
Golden storm, golden tide, and other terms resounded throughout the entire Yue country.
Shen Lang’s reputation was instantly reversed.
Previously, he was just a useless live-in son-in-law who only knew how to squander. Now, he had become a God who could turn the rotten into the magical.
He had become the idol of countless young people in the world.
Turning Stone into gold, awesome, right?
Previously, when he became the live-in son-in-law of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, he was spurned by everyone. And now, he had performed this golden miracle and was worshipped by tens of thousands of people.
In less than a month, he had earned seven to eight hundred thousand gold coins.
Following that, countless people started to discuss how the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu managed to earn 700000 to 800000 gold coins in just over a month.
This was too difficult.
No business in the world could make so much money.
Xu Guangyun monopolized more than half of the silk in Tiannan province, but his annual net profit was only tens of thousands of gold coins.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had 100000 citizens, a mine, and a salt field. In a year, they would only earn tens of thousands of gold coins.
Seven to eight hundred thousand gold coins a month?
Could it be that gold coins fell from the sky?
Someone said mysteriously that gold coins did not fall from the sky, but from the earth.
Do you guys know?
The 700,000 gold coins from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had been forged in a hurry. The gold was very new, and it was just a gold coin’s mold. There was no time to even print words or patterns on it.
There were even many gold nuggets mixed in, even gold with sand.
What did this prove?
The gold had just been dug out from geography not long ago.
A gold mine was discovered in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
A gold mine was found on moon Cliff Island!
Moreover, it was a very high-grade gold mine. There was not only golden sand but also a lot of Kobold gold, some of which were a few taels, and some were more than one catty. They could be used directly by picking them up.
These public opinions instantly formed a huge storm that spread to every corner.
Even the public opinion caused by Shen Lang’s act was suppressed.
Everyone was talking about the possible gold mine on gaze Cliff Island.
Gold moved people’s hearts.
What else in the world could earn money faster than mining gold?
No wonder the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was able to pay off 700000 to 800000 gold coins.
No wonder the Jin family would rather not have the gold Mountain Island than to keep the gazing Cliff Island.
Therefore, countless people took boats to watch Cliff Island.
However, no one was able to get close, as the surrounding Sea area had been sealed off by the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Anyone who dared to approach gaze Cliff Island would be killed without mercy!
..................
After showing off, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu entered its busiest period.
The moment the yin Yuan Association’s people left, uncle Black Tortoise stopped feigning illness and immediately appeared in front of everyone in high spirits.
He was in a good mental state, but he had lost a lot of weight. The Countess was very happy about this.
She even took the initiative to ask Shen lang if she could take the medicine. She wanted to lose weight too.
Instantly, Shen lang revealed a shocked expression and said, ” “Mother-in-law, Yingluo, you actually want to lose weight too? Oh my God, is there a better body than yours in this world? You’ll get fat if you gain a little, and you’ll get thin if you lose a little. If you’re still trying to lose weight with your body, do all the women in the world still want to live?”
Immediately, his mother-in-law was overjoyed and no longer mentioned the matter of losing weight.
Then, the two of them talked about beauty products and the eye cream that Shen lang had invented.
They were chatting happily.
In the end, uncle Black Tortoise couldn’t help but cough and say, ” “Off topic, off topic.”
Then, they got back to the main topic.
Su Peipei was really not satisfied.
Didn’t women love to talk about beautiful clothes, beauty, Rouge, and so on?
Originally, she could have chatted with her daughter, but Jin Mulan had no interest in it at all. She was very disappointed.
But now, the son-in-law had completely filled this gap.
Most importantly, when this son-in-law was busy with important matters, he would come up with one tempting little invention after another.
There were soap, shampoo, perfume, lipsticks, facial masks, deep sea clam oil, and so on.
He couldn’t go back after using it.
Su Peipei felt more and more that he was not only her son-in-law, but also a good sister.
............
Shen lang continued to talk about important matters.
father-in-law, the war is coming. We’ll be recruiting soldiers and expanding by two thousand.
“Do you want to recruit from the outside or from the inside?” uncle Black Tortoise asked.
If he were to recruit them from the outside, the wandering Warriors ‘martial arts skills would be much higher, but their loyalty would not be good.
Shen lang said, ” let’s do it in our fief. Don’t we have a militia organization in our fief? ” Just pick out the elites.”
“That way, their combat strength might not be strong,” uncle Black Tortoise said.
Shen lang said, ” don’t worry. Although it is a war, many people will die. However, our Army is just for show. There are not many opportunities for us to fight in close combat. Most of the time, it’s a conspiracy, poison, and trap!”
“Wouldn’t expanding the Army to 5000 be too big of a commotion and enrage the monarch?” uncle Black Tortoise asked.
“Pretend I didn’t say anything,” uncle Black Tortoise continued.
The private army of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had at most 5000 soldiers, and this number did not go against the rules set by their ancestors.
As for whether it would anger the king? That would definitely happen.
But the butcher’s knife is already at your neck, and you’re still worried about whether you’ll anger the other party?
Shen lang said, ” we have to expand the Army quickly. We have to finish it within three days. After all, the armor and Warriors are ready.
Mulan, ” uncle Xuanwu said, ” expand the Army by two thousand in three days. Is there a problem? ”
I’m in a rush, ” Jin Mulan said. but it’s not a problem.
Shen lang said, ” next, there will definitely be countless people going to watch Cliff Island to Scout. Therefore, we have to act as if it is real. The Golden Island, watch Cliff Island, has to live up to its name. We have to make everyone drool. I plan to use 400000 gold coins to decorate this Golden Island.
Four hundred thousand gold coins?
After returning the 700000 gold coins, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was left with less than 320000 gold coins.
But just yesterday, Huang Tong had delivered another hundred thousand taels of gold.
This batch of gold was even more primitive. It was completely like a gold lump that had just been dug out of a gold mine, and some of it was sand.
Most of it was golden sand.
Shen lang had never asked for the money. It was the heavenly Dao that had given it to him.
Moreover, Huang Tong had said that this was an interest-free loan with no time limit and could be deducted from the future payment for the glass.
Obviously, the elder of the heavenly Dao Guild had seen through Shen Lang’s shocking strategy.
Therefore, they immediately cooperated fully with the support to make this show more realistic.
Huang Tong and the first elder had deduced that Shen Lang’s target was in raging tide city.
This was the Trade Center of the eastern sea of Yue country. Once they took it down, it would have extraordinary significance.
By then, as Shen Lang’s strategic ally, the heavenly society could immediately take root in raging tide city and take the absolute initiative in the sea trade.
This was also something that money could not buy.
Huang Tong told Shen lang that almost all the gold coins that the society of the heavenly Dao could use in the Yue country had been transferred. However, if Shen lang needed it, the society of the heavenly Dao could gather it from other countries or even from the headquarters.
It was still an interest-free loan with no return date. There was not even an IOU or a contract.
Even Shen lang was shocked by such a huge sum of money.
As expected of an organization that had ruled the business world of the eastern world for hundreds of years. Such determination and courage were completely admirable.
This was also in line with the saying.
Top-tier business organizations were not for money, but for power.
Although this power was not the same as political power, it was not far from it.
Of course, there was no gold mine on moon Cliff Island, but Shen lang wanted to pile up 400000 gold coins into a gold mine.
All the iron mines had been suspended and turned into gold mines.
There were not only newly cast gold coins, but also gold lumps and golden sand.
There was even newly excavated soil.
There would definitely be no flaws.
father-in-law, after the expansion is completed, you will need to personally take action. “You will lead 4000 troops to watch Cliff Island and use 10000 civilians to build the castle,” Shen lang said.
It was definitely too late to build a castle now.
Everything was an act.
“We must let the world see clearly that our family’s strategic focus is on looking Cliff Island. We only have 1000 soldiers on our fief, but we have 4000 soldiers on looking Cliff Island.”
we have to show our determination. We’d rather lose our fief and Castle than lose hope Cliff Island.
we have to let the world feel that the gold reserves on gazing Cliff Island are astronomical, and may reach hundreds of thousands of Jin.
Uncle Black Tortoise nodded and said,”alright!” After the expansion is completed in three days, I’ll immediately lead 4000 troops to enter gazing Cliff Island and start building a city on it. ”
lang ‘er, ” uncle Black Tortoise said, ” there’ll definitely be people trying to figure out the situation on the cliff Island. Should we defend it to the death, or should we deliberately leave a gap? ”
Shen lang said, ” defend the island and kill them all. Kill all the enemies who enter the gazing Cliff Island, no matter who is behind them or how powerful they are. We must show our determination. There must be no flaws in this big show. Don’t worry, father-in-law, there’s no such thing as an impervious wall in this world. The big scene of the gold mine on moon Cliff Island will definitely be leaked.”
Strategic deception was very difficult.
There can’t be a single flaw, or the enemy will find out.
So the only way was to make it more real than real.
They had to use an astronomical amount of gold, an Army of several thousand, and tens of thousands of civilians to put on this show.
Uncle Black Tortoise said,’if I wasn’t an insider, I would have been deceived as well. They believed that a big gold mine had been found on moon Cliff Island. Based on my understanding of Qiu Tianwei and Tang Lun, they will definitely fall into the trap. This huge scam is too big, and everyone in the world will fall into it. ”
no, ” Shen lang said, ” there’s one person who doesn’t. Perhaps he has already seen through it.
“Who?” uncle Black Tortoise asked.
Shen lang said, ” Zhang San, he has not appeared for a few months. He claims that he is recuperating at home. This is the most abnormal thing.
there are no flaws in our strategic blackmail, ” uncle Black Tortoise said. how can he see through it? ”
Shen lang said, ” a truly skilled chess player doesn’t need to care about your smokescreen. He can grasp your heart and see through your ultimate goal. In that case, no matter how skilled a smokescreen is, there is no way to hide it. Our Lord governor’s methods are even more shocking. He’s taking this opportunity to eradicate the three great powers. He’s going to build a hundred years of immortal achievements. When the Sandpiper and clam fight, the fisherman will benefit. He’s going to be the fisherman who laughs last.”
To others, this chess game was confusing.
However, to Zhang Ye and Shen lang, it was like a game of chess.
Mulan left the castle reluctantly as she was still thinking about the bet with Shen lang.
However, this was too wonderful, and she really didn’t want to rush it.
After she returned the money to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, she would not even have the chance to stay overnight at home. She would be extremely busy for the next few days.
“Pretty boy, I’ll deal with you when I come back. I’m going to eat you alive.”
Shen lang was completely stunned.
Did this Wufu really come out of Mulan’s mouth?
Mulan was a reserved and cold goddess.
She actually said such shameless words?
The miracle that Shen lang created this time was so great that even a goddess like Mulan was shocked.
In addition, his strategic deployment was more and more amazing than the previous one, and he was very generous.
At this time, the overall situation had already taken shape, and they were just waiting for the enemy to fall into the trap.
Women were emotional, and Mulan was no exception.
They would instinctively worship the strong. The stronger a man was, the more they would fall.
During the battle of the Golden Mountain Island, half of Mulan had fallen.
And this time, the Golden Island strategy was about to succeed, and the Jin family would be able to build a century-old great cause.
Such an overall situation was truly intoxicating.
Coupled with the stimulation of countless gold, goddess Mulan had completely fallen for him.
............
For the next few days, Mulan did not stop and did not sleep at all. She went to every town and village in her fief.
Every time they arrived at a place, they would immediately gather all the militia and choose the most elite among them to be incorporated into the private army.
Armor and weapons were distributed on the spot, money was given to the an family on the spot, and half a year’s salary was paid in advance.
Instantly, the entire Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was filled with the aura of land Warriors.
Countless strong men fought to join the army.
When this scene spread out, it made the surrounding influential people even more shocked.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had actually expanded its Army?
This was completely against the world’s will and was a provocation to the monarch.
To expand the Army at this time?
What were they trying to do?
Then, many people realized that the fleet of ships from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu continued to head towards the gazing Cliff Island.
Army after Army landed on gazing Cliff Island.
Thousands of civilians landed on gazing Cliff Island.
As the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu made a big move ...
The situation immediately became extremely intense and fiery.
Everyone had the same conclusion.
Something was going to happen, something big was going to happen!
......
Everyone was busy.
However, the instigator, Shen lang, was relaxed once again.
The planner had to work hard.
The most brilliant schemer didn’t even need to worry.
The plan had been set.
The inescapable net had already been laid out, and all that was left was to wait for the enemy to fall into it.
Shen lang and Jin mucong entered the rhythm of typing furiously again.
To Shen lang, everything was ready except for the crucial element.
And this east wind was the female devil, Chou Yao ‘er.
She had become the most crucial person in determining whether Shen lang would be able to take over raging tide city.
Jin mucong’s speed was too fast.
In just a dozen days, he had already finished half of the Journey to the West.
Moreover, it didn’t know what exhaustion was.
To him, copying books was just a process. The result was when he listened to the story and enjoyed himself.
In the few days of free time, Shen lang waited for his enemies to fall into his trap.
At the same time, he was trying his best to please the female devil, Chou Yao ‘er.
The entire book was written for one person. Master lang had never tried to please a woman like this.
However, at this moment.
The spy that Shen lang sent to raging tide city had returned with a letter from Xu Qianqian.
Shen lang opened the letter and saw that there was no content.
He roasted it with fire!
Xu Qianqian’s handwriting appeared on it.
[ Qiu Yao ‘er is in critical condition, her life is in danger, please come and save her, it’s urgent, it’s urgent! ]
Shen lang was shocked!
Chou Yao ‘er was critically ill? His life was in danger?
Was this the slow-acting poison from before?
However, based on Xu Qianqian’s words, Shen lang had no idea what kind of poison she was poisoned with.
Shen lang was faced with a difficult choice.
Should he go to raging tide city?
If he went, wouldn’t it be a little risky?
If you don’t go?
To let Chou Yao ‘er die?
She could not die now.
This was a risk, but it was also a good opportunity.
............
[ note: the second update is here. I’ll quickly eat and then continue to write the third update. Brothers, don’t stop supporting me. The pastry will do its best. ] Master Lang’s first time, don’t worry, it’ll definitely be exciting!
Thank you for the 10000 Yuan tips from little black, counterattack of misfortune, an eggshell that loves to eat eggs, and Shangguan Mingjian.
