Chapter 889 The Age of Attack
Imperial nobles never speak like this.
To be more precise, imperial aristocrats never speak so bluntly or in such a condescending way.
So what the big man expressed was very euphemistic. This invitation party - to a certain extent, it was a banquet. Every corner of this banquet, the arrangement of every item, the eyes of every waiter, and even the gestures of some guests
, all expressing the meaning of big shots.
The banquet held by the organizer at his own expense was extremely luxurious. Things that only nobles could enjoy in the past, and things that ordinary people could not even imagine, were placed in front of the local entrepreneurs of the first island chain - according to Li Shoucheng
He said that those present here are all entrepreneurs who emerged after the establishment of the mechanical hive. They are the real "new money", and they are not even the people of the Monga era.
Why don't the big shots go to the big companies and go directly to these idiots like them? Chen Yan can think of the answer to this question with his buttocks - the big shots are not big enough. They are not big enough to sit there and their domineering spirit will give way to the big shots.
The big business groups are so ready to follow their lead that they can only start with the mud-legged ones.
It wasn't until Chen Yan found a resin injection soaked in a beautiful dry ice container in the corner of the banquet hall that he learned about the big shot.
"Hey, top quality."
Li Shoucheng followed Chen Yan all the time. When he saw the injection, he whispered in a teasing tone:
"The purer the sesame oil, the more pleasant it is to use and the less negative effects it has on the body. I've heard that the sesame oils used by rich people are customized high-end products, but I didn't expect to see them here."
Chen Yan frowned and said:
“Rich people also eat aerospace fuel waste?”
Li Shoucheng obviously knew what he was talking about, and he squinted his eyes and said:
"This is not waste, it is real raw material. It is a serious imperial military control product and cannot be obtained by ordinary people... Ordinary methods are also difficult, so it must be a direct lineage."
Chen Yan:
"This person's connections are in the military."
Li Shoucheng was noncommittal:
"I know those things are not on the table. The specifics depend on how the relationships within the empire are calculated...but I guess the difference should be like this. Jianghu, it's pretty much the same everywhere."
The military wants a share of the pie... This is a bit strange. As far as Chen Yan knows, the original leader of the pioneer regiment, Bar Dacrorod, belongs to the empire's naval establishment. After the island is liberated, even if the cake is divided, it stands to reason
It was also the Imperial Navy that took the lead.
But later, Barr Dacrorod cut off his arms and cut down the gunpowder store that was very likely to be whitewashed and become the largest enterprise in the first island chain. From then on, his status plummeted. Chen Yan thought to himself, I am afraid that it was because of this that the navy started to attack the first island chain.
Control of an island chain is also affected.
He thought again, in fact, things cannot be calculated simply like this. Klein made it clear before that the development of the island chain, as well as the subsequent World Dimensional Internet of Things, the lunar orbit matrix and the star chain colonization, were all planned by the empire long ago.
So, it must have been part of the Navy's plan to take over the island. You can probably drink soup, but eating meat... I'm afraid you have to rely on your ability.
While Chen Yan was thinking deeply, a voice suddenly sounded beside him:
"Li Shoucheng, you can come to a place like this."
When Chen Yan turned his head, he saw a middle-aged man in formal clothes looking at Li Shoucheng with a look that couldn't be said to be sinister or filled with suppressed murderous intent.
The latter showed obvious fear, and Chen Yan could even feel a mixture of "fear, caution, vigilance, murderous intent..." all kinds of clear emotions floating in the air.
These emotions disappeared in the next moment, and Li Shoucheng's expression returned to normal from slight hysteria.
"Lord Darkrod, long time no see."
Li Shoucheng hid everything in his heart, and Chen Yan could no longer feel any overflowing emotions from the air.
The obvious "disgust" that only existed for a moment on Barr Darkrod's face disappeared. He glanced at Chen Yan and said something that seemed to have no beginning or end, but was actually a warning:
"The days of Days Island are gone forever, and it will become increasingly difficult for entrepreneurs to do business. But in the future, everyone will make solid money, and they should feel comfortable spending it."
Chen Yan heard the warning in his words and responded:
"Compliance with imperial laws is a prerequisite for business operations."
This was obviously not what Barr Darkrod wanted to hear. The vague emotion in his eyes clearly told Chen Yan that he regarded Chen Yan as a type of person similar to Li Shoucheng.
"Now that you're here, work hard in the future." He looked at Li Shoucheng and said, "You are lucky, much better than Alang and the others. Since you have such good luck, you must cherish it."
The word "Alang" seemed to touch some nerve in Li Shoucheng's mind. He looked stiff and stopped talking. He only said "Yes..." with an ugly face.
Barr Darkrod turned his gaze to Chen Yan's face again, and after looking into his eyes for two seconds, he said, "I hope you have a good day," and then left.
"damn it."
From the corner of his eye, Li Shoucheng squinted at the back of Bar Dacrorod through the gap between the crowds, his eyes without hesitation like a poisonous snake that was hiding and about to prey.
"Although this old guy seems to be upright, he actually has no idea how ruthless he is. He kills brothers who are back to back in the trenches at will, but he doesn't take it seriously at all when it comes to a comrade who has been living on the table for several years!
This man is a complete madman! He is a murderer more vicious than gangsters like us!"
Li Shoucheng obviously realized that he had lost his composure, so he took back his vicious look and returned to his previous kind look.
"In fact, there is no need to be too worried. He is just a toothless dog now. He went crazy and pulled out his teeth. Now no one can bite him."
Chen Yan asked:
"What did he say in the Navy?"
Although Chen Yan had a guess, he still wanted to look at the problem from another perspective.
Li Shoucheng now successfully cleared Chen Yan's company and became the company's second shareholder. After figuring out the empire's shareholding structure, he knew that his interests were completely tied to Chen Yan, so he sincerely regarded Chen Yan as his own
People, now they try their best to explain the problem:
"The gunpowder store was originally going to be incorporated into a certain establishment of the Navy. This operation was very difficult because the people in the gunpowder store were actual exiles. But for some people, some impossible things just nodded and said
Just a sentence."
"As far as I know...it's not accurate news. The top brass of the navy were furious because Bar Dacrorod had cleaned up the gangs on Dyce Island, and they were even preparing to send him to a military court."
Chen Yan asked:
"In what name?"
Li Shoucheng replied:
"They said they were killing prisoners of war... I'm not sure about the specifics. It's not up to them to decide what the name is."
"I don't know what happened later, but the matter just fell into place. I guess Bardakrod himself must have made some efforts. As for the direction of his efforts, no one knows... Dais Island
No matter how powerful the gang is, it can't even reach a small naval sergeant in the imperial capital, let alone a higher-ranking officer who can deal with a major general like Bar Darkrod."
Li Shoucheng's tone did not reveal any disappointment, Chen Yan could only hear emotions such as "envy" from his mouth.
"To be honest, what Bar Dacrorod did was so inhumane. He was not as ruthless as killing a donkey. He was equivalent to killing his entire family and digging up his ancestral graves without even giving him a root.
Sheng... is really a great person."
Chen Yan narrowed his eyes:
"I think there should be retribution for what he did so badly."
Li Shoucheng's tone was erratic:
"Yes, we thought so at the beginning, so everyone was secretly waiting for him to die. Who knew that nearly a month had passed, and he had done nothing, not even being demoted... I guess there was a big shot behind him.
Yes, someone must have protected him, so nothing happened to him until now."
Chen Yan said:
"In any case, he can no longer affect things on the island."
Li Shoucheng remained silent. His knowledge of the inside of the logistics center only came from rumors among gangs. He did not even have access to the functional division of the logistics center and the overt and covert struggles between various factions. Groundless speculations did not mean anything to them.
significance.
Li Shoucheng enjoyed every moment of attending this invitational party. The bustling scene originally only existed in his dreams. He clearly understood that he was an unworthy person and an unforgivable criminal. He once did what he did on the island.
Those things were enough for any law enforcement agency to shoot him countless times.
Therefore, he behaved humbly enough. Even though he had become a serious entrepreneur, he always only stood behind Chen Yan, like a little follower.
So he understands how hard-won everything in front of him is - even if it is hard-won mostly because of luck, how many times can such luck happen in a lifetime?
He encountered it, he caught it, and he achieved some achievements. This was his destiny, and he enjoyed it with peace of mind, and he always remained in awe of it.
He is no longer the young man who lives in Monga all day long and is aggressive and aggressive. Dais Island is no longer the barren and unruly land where everything is restricted by law and nothing can go back.
Already...
Suddenly, a phone call interrupted Li Shoucheng's reminiscence.
He hung up the phone, said hello to Chen Yan, left the conference hall, went to the bathroom, took out his cell phone, and dialed back.
"Boss! Our place was smashed!"
Li Shoucheng's face stiffened and he frowned:
"I have emphasized to you countless times, don't call me boss again."
The voice on the phone was anxious:
"Uncle Li... Our warehouse at the dock was completely smashed by a group of people and their guys. A batch of second-hand omni-machine prosthetics that we had previously stored were all destroyed! Thirty thousand pounds of business is gone, and we have to pay liquidated damages!"
"This is not the time to talk about this... I don't have much time, you come with me."
Chapter completed!
