Page 70 【Dawn】

Woody Salvin has been sitting in his study room, which is spacious enough to be filled with ten million gold coins for a long time.

His bookshelf is filled with all kinds of books, including classics, rare books, and orphans, all of which he has collected over the years.

Woody has lived for thirty-six years. What he fears most is that he is said to be uneducated. Although he does not have much in his head, he is a dock worker and has worked for so many years to reach his current position. He does not want to be criticized by others.

Look down on him, he has been working very hard to change himself, make himself look more like an upper-class person, and let all the muddy smell on his body dissipate.

He even set gold frames on those bookshelves, and specially made them into a hollow shape that was said to be the most popular among Demacian nobles. He paid several extra kilograms of gold for this, which made him feel distressed for a long time, and he also had doubts.

That craftsman, but in order to show that he had unique taste, he refrained from saying anything.

But today, now, when he looked at those gaudy gold frames, he felt very irritated.

The person he sent to Floran's house to inquire about the news has returned, and he already knows that Floran's entire family is dead.

He also saw the blooming rose in the sky, and he knew that a guard of two hundred people would be rushing towards him soon.

But he was not happy at all.

Floran is already dead, so Ferguson is definitely finished.[

Ferguson is finished. How can someone like him, who is not even a big shot, escape?

Maybe it’s because you’re not important that you’re ranked last, right?

Woody let out a long sigh, walked to the side and couldn't help but open the door. The room was really stuffy. If it continued to be stuffy, he was afraid that he would suffocate.

The rain outside has become very light, and it will be dawn soon.

I wonder if I can see the sun tomorrow?

Will there be sun tomorrow?

It's not like Woody hasn't thought about escaping, but where can he escape?

We can’t stay on the entire Blue Flame Island. Should we go to Valoran?

There was a chance to survive in Valoran. But wouldn’t all his decades of struggle have been in vain?

Even if you can take some of your property with you, how much can you take with you no matter how much you bring?

Woody couldn't bear the thought of his gold coins, which could fill half of his study room, being taken away from him.

He may die, but he must not be poor.

He couldn't stand being poor for a moment, he was already afraid of poverty. So he had to sleep with gold coins as his pillow.

Because he was afraid that when he woke up, there would be nothing left.

"Tap -" Just as he thought of this, Woody's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of horse hooves.[

He saw a dilapidated carriage pulled by a thin horse, parked at his door.

His eyelids twitched fiercely. He had already guessed who was coming.

He was definitely here to cleanse himself, but he didn't expect it to come faster than Guns and Roses.

But if there is only one carriage...

In fact, he was already desperate. He thought that he could not break out of the siege with all his money, so it would be better to die with his own money than to be a poor ghost.

But now...

Just when he was hesitating whether to attack the seemingly weak cleaning team, the sound of neat footsteps came from the distance.

Guns N' Roses is coming too.

Great.

He suddenly became excited, isn't this God helping me?

But what happened next was completely beyond his expectation. The Guns and Roses team did not attack the carriage. After the two sides communicated, the people on the carriage came towards him.

betray?

Woody thought of this word at once. These damn bitches usually have a lot of money to support them, but now they are doing this to me?

But the subsequent development of the situation once again went beyond the scope of his thinking. The person who got off the carriage did not take action, but politely asked to see him.

Well...

Woody narrowed his eyes. Suddenly he felt that everything was about to turn around. After all, he was able to get to this point, and he was not without ability.

"Invite them in." Woody only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

He just wanted to see what tricks the other party was playing.

——————————

After Chen Senran got Hu Di's consent, he walked into his house with the two fierce gods behind him.

Along the way, the guards hired by Woody were all very scared. They must have been frightened by Graves and Vincent. The two of them killed people all night long, and their murderous intent was comparable to that in hell.

Evil ghost.

After passing through several doors, Chen Senran successfully arrived at Hu Di's study.

As soon as he entered the study, Chen Senran laughed and opened his arms to Woody: "Hahahahahaha, Mr. Woody, I have admired your name for a long time."

"Oh, I wonder who you are?" Hu Di sat in his seat and did not move, just looking at Chen Senran with a smile on his face.

"I'm just a small person, running errands, not worth mentioning." Chen Senran didn't feel embarrassed, pulled out a chair and sat across from Woody.

Graves and Delevingne stood behind Chen Senran like two goalkeepers.

As soon as he saw these two fierce gods, Woody's originally strong aura weakened. He glanced at the two of them a little weakly. Graves was fine, but Draven was covered in blood after fighting all night.

The blood was so strong that Woody almost vomited it out.

"Haha, you are joking, Your Excellency... You must be Captain Plank's right-hand subordinate." Woody resisted the urge to vomit, and his tone became polite.

"Haha, Mr. Woody is a sensible person." Chen Senran was not in a hurry and tapped Woody's elegant black rock wood tabletop.

The regular knocking sound made Woody's heart tremble, but he still managed to calm down and asked: "I don't know... what does Mr. Planck plan... to do with me?"

Although he was still a little scared, he was secretly relieved that the other party did not take action directly, but sat down to talk.

That means there is still a chance.

It still has value in itself.

"Master Woody is a smart man. I don't need to say more about what Blue Flame Island will look like after tonight, right?" Chen Senran still tapped the table slowly, "You know what you should do, right?"

"Oh...oh!!!" Hu Di was still a little confused at first, but when he heard Chen Senran say this, he suddenly felt so blessed that his heart crowed like a rooster, "I understand, I understand!!!"

He understands, of course he understands.

He understood more than he could understand.

Gangplank killed Ferguson and purged other business leaders, which was regarded as defeating the merchant-led faction. However, there were so many merchants that it was impossible to kill them all. In the future, the development of Blue Flame Island will also depend on merchants, and Gangplank will

To rule Blue Flame Island, he must rely on the power of businessmen, so he needs a spokesperson, one who is not outstanding but has a certain status among businessmen.

And I, I seem to be...

Woody's mouth suddenly went dry, and his heart started beating wildly.

was selected.

"From now on, I will only obey Captain Planck." He answered so quickly that he almost knelt down to show his loyalty.

"Yes." Chen Senran nodded and stood up from his position, "I will call you His Majesty Planck from now on."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Woody nodded quickly.

Even if he is asked to call Planck dad at this moment, he can do it.

Chen Senran walked around Hu Di's study, stopped next to the gold-inlaid bookshelves, touched them and said with a smile: "This is the legendary, even the table corners are gold-inlaid, Hu Di's study

Alright?"

"Haha, it's all rumors. Rumors, if you like it, I will give this house to you." How dare Hu Di neglect Chen Senran now? He might point at this young man for dinner in the future.

"Hmph..." Chen Senran snorted without knowing what it meant. He left the bookshelf and walked slowly to the door.

"The rain has stopped." He knocked on the steamy door and sighed, "Is it going to be dawn soon?"

outside.

The morning light is coming.

It's dawn.
