East China Sea, Black Reef Island, mountain base!

After the [Ming Dynasty Sailor] came out, Liu Cheng began to have the idea of ​​upgrading [Bandit Camp].

After all, the current level 1 [barracks] recruit troops is too slow. Fortunately, the [Military] can only recruit 150 people in a month, and the [Ming Dynasty Sailors] that just appeared is even more miserable. There are only 30 people in a month.

At this speed, it would take at least one or two years for Liu Cheng to recruit a well-established [Ming Dynasty Sailor] to show off, so he had the idea of ​​upgrading to the [Bandit Camp].

Of course, he didn't really leave just to pretend to be broken. Pretend to be broken is secondary. The main reason is that if he can have a well-established [Ming Dynasty Navy], he, Liu Cheng, can completely gain a firm foothold in Beihai.

Upgrading the [barracks] and other things is actually very simple. The system is doing things in this regard. If you give it money, it will help you upgrade it. It is just very simple. It can be done with 2,000 gold.

But the problem is that Liu Cheng really didn't have two thousand gold at this time. It is true that Liu Cheng made a lot of money through [Jinchuang Medicine] in the previous month, but Liu Chenghua also had a lot of money in the previous month.

First of all, the biggest expense he spent in that month was undoubtedly to cultivate that archer. This is the most powerful force on Black Reef Island and the most expensive place.

Liu Cheng spent 500 gold for those 100 bows and arrows alone. In addition to the arrow consumption required for subsequent training, Liu Cheng spent about 700 gold on that archer alone.

Of course, in the previous battle, the archers on Black Reef Island also showed their value, proving that the money was not spent in vain.

It was just the training of archers, plus the daily consumption of some Black Reef Islands, and Liu Cheng recruited soldiers in the system, and finally, he was robbed by Teng Qingshan three times in a row. In fact, Liu Cheng finally didn't have much money in his hands in the end.

Fortunately, Liu Cheng finally successfully took down Tan Qingyun and Teng Qingshan and collected a wave of supplies on the Black Wind Island, worth about a thousand gold coins. If it weren't for that batch of supplies, Liu Cheng might have been drinking Northwest Wind for a while.

However, in this case, it seems a bit difficult for Liu Cheng to upgrade to [Barrison Camp] or something!

Of course, if Liu Cheng could take people to copy [Qingyan Island] at this time, it would probably not be difficult for Tan Qingyun to upgrade to the [Bandit Camp], given his family's background.

But if nothing unexpected happens at this time, Qingyan Island should be controlled by the so-called "Thousand-faced Man". It is estimated that Liu Cheng would not be so easy to succeed.

Therefore, if Liu Cheng wants to upgrade to the [Bandit Camp] at this time, he may have to find another way. If he really wants to copy [Qingyan Island], he will have to wait until he understands the situation of the "Thousand-Faced Man".

However, the problem Liu Cheng faced at this time was not just the escalation of the [barracks], but more importantly, the Black Reef Island, or perhaps the problem exposed by Liu Cheng in this incident.

One is the problem of understanding the nearby environment and the construction of the defense system of the Black Reef Island, and the other is the most important point, that is, Liu Cheng is gradually becoming obsessed with [refining medicine].

These two things, one caused strong enemies to surround him, and some even touched the situation that Liu CD didn't know about the Black Ao Island, and the other deeply bound Liu Cheng, making Liu Cheng busy with alchemy and unable to take care of him.

It’s okay to say that it’s not too late to fix the dead, but it’s a bit difficult for the latter one.

Nowadays, the development of [Heijiao Island] is really inseparable from the refining of [Jinchuang Medicine]. With the continuous development of [Heijiao Island], the funds required will definitely be getting bigger and bigger.

If this continues, what Liu Cheng needs to face next is not the problem of being bound by himself to become an alchemist. Even the sustainable development of the entire alchemy industry created by Liu Cheng at this time will become a problem.

However, Liu Cheng did not notice these issues now. Liu Cheng began to pay attention to this aspect early in the morning.

And it is not the problem he has paid the most attention to and felt that the most urgent need to solve.

For Liu Cheng, there is only one problem he needs to solve most now, that is, the problem of "Thousand Faces Man".

It is obvious that although he successfully won Tan Qingyun and Teng Qingshan this time, he hindered the plan of the "Thousand Face Man". Next, Liu Cheng will inevitably face the "Thousand Face Man".

This is a very important issue that Liu Cheng has to face in front of him. What Liu Cheng doesn’t know is that when he was thinking about the “Thousand Face Man”, the “Thousand Face Man” was also looking at Liu Cheng…

……………………

East China Sea, Qingyan Island.

Because of this [Qingyanshi] mine, both Tan Qingyun and Tengqingshan have the intention of long-term development on this island.

So on Qingyan Island, they built a series of facilities early in the morning, as well as a village that can accommodate nearly a thousand people, and even a simplest port, and these things now belong to others.

The person who just took these things was not in a good mood now. This person was not someone else, but the "thousand-faced man" mentioned by Tan Qingyun.

She is the person behind Teng Qingshan. She provided help to Teng Qingshan, won the sacrificial seal in advance, and gave Teng Qingshan information on Black Apricot Island, allowing Teng Qingshan to successfully take Tan Qingyun with Liu Cheng's Black Apricot Island as bait.

However, although her plan was very successful and Teng Qingshan did take over Tan Qingyun, problems arose at the end of the plan, and Liu Cheng disrupted her deployment.

Not only was Heijiao Island not taken down in the end, Teng Qingshan was still dead, but now she was in trouble.

For some reason, she couldn't stand on the table. Once she stood up, she would immediately be hit hard.

Therefore, Teng Qingshan is a very important chess piece in her hand. Not only does she need to use Teng Qingshan to take down Tan Qingyun to capture [Qingyan Island], but more importantly, she needs to use Teng Qingshan as a puppet to manage [Qingyan Island] and help her do something.

The puppet she had originally prepared was killed, and the Black Reef Island she was originally going to take down was not taken down.

The "Thousand Face Man" didn't want to accept this result, but since it happened, she had no choice but to try her best to make up for it and change it.

So far, she has not done much. Sneak into the Black Reef Island and try to see if she can take down Liu Cheng is one of the few things she can do now.

So while Liu Cheng was talking about the "Thousand-Faced Man", a small boat drove out from Qingyan Island and headed towards the direction of Heijiao Island...
