Chapter 789 The foundation on the water, heading towards the sea of stars!(2/2)
Immediately, several people came out to greet him.
The person at the front looked very familiar. When he got closer, Sumo took another look and couldn't help but laugh.
The so-called meeting an old friend in a foreign land, after eight years, he had no idea that the highest officer of the Tianyuan Navy would be here.
It turned out to be.
"Hello, County Magistrate Su, it's our first time meeting you. I never expected that a hero comes from a young age. I've admired you for a long time!"
"I am Lu Yongyi, the supreme commander of the Tianyuan Navy's Shuijing Army, and I am also your deputy for this trip."
Eight years later, Lu Yongyi, who is already over fifty, does not look more vicissitudes than before. On the contrary, he has grown more heroic.
He has a sense of gentleman that is unique to older men, and combined with the seriousness of a soldier, it gives people an indescribable sense of comfort.
Realizing that Somo was looking at him up and down, with a familiar and emotional expression on his face, he was stunned:
"Have County Magistrate Su seen me before?"
"No, but my feeling tells me that we will get along very happily," Sumo replied happily.
"Huh?" Lu Yongyi was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his elegant and easy-going face: "It seems like what Feng Long said, County Magistrate Su's words are really interesting, and he really makes me feel like an old friend from the past."
"Old friend" In addition to Lu Yongyi, he looked at several people next to him.
It's not unfamiliar either.
Surprisingly, they were the captains of the big ships who followed Lu Yongyi, and later Zhang Long, Liu Neng, Kong Yangyu, and Dang Qi who followed him into the deep sea.
I don’t know what happened back then, but everyone was still able to contact each other without him, and finally gathered together miraculously.
Lu Yongyi did not go to join the Longqi Territory, but chose to stay in the Tianyuan Territory and became a part of it.
After greeting these people one by one, a few people began to walk into the rest hall.
As soon as he sat down, Lu Yongyi couldn't wait to say:
"According to Commander Feng's order, all operations of the fleet this time are entirely based on County Magistrate Su's orders. We are only supporting the normal operation of the fleet."
"It only takes us three days at most to prepare the logistics, and then we can set off and go down the Taichang Longxian River."
"Three days? It's just the right time. The merchant ships are preparing some of the goods I want to take out." Sumo nodded slightly. This time, it was not just the fleet traveling with the fleet, but also hundreds of cargo ships that came with temporary signs.
Usually, these ships run along the coastline and conduct some short-distance resource transactions. This time, after opening up the Tianhe River, it was easy to sail to Baoyu County.
"In addition to opening up trade routes this time, Commander Feng should have assigned you other tasks, right?" Sumo asked again.
"Yes, in addition to our cruise on Changlong Xianjiang to eliminate some threats, we also have to deal with some troubles that we couldn't solve due to distance this time.
There are several small territories supported by our Tianyuan Territory that are often bullied by neighboring territories, and this time we go down to establish our authority." Lu Yongyi replied.
"It just happened to happen. It's time for the outside world to see our true strength." Sumo nodded in agreement.
Now that I have decided not to keep a low profile anymore, there is no need to be secretive. It is not a bad thing to be completely high-profile.
At the very least, the territory of Changlong Xianjiang can think carefully about the cost of destruction before destroying trade routes.
We talked about this topic for a while, and waited until the meal was served.
Sumo originally wanted to ask again about the choice of route for this trip.
"You are making trouble unreasonably. Working hours are not cheaper than trading points. I refuse."
Suddenly, a loud quarrel could be heard faintly outside the noisy lounge.
At first, the sound was very weak, but later it became more and more intense, as if a conflict had broken out.
"I'll go out and take a look."
After catching some key words, Sumo frowned and immediately stood up and walked out of the lounge.
Standing behind the door and looking towards the source of the sound, his face suddenly darkened.
In the temporary trading area planned near the port, a group of murlocs dressed in sky-blue Tianyuan Navy uniforms were surrounding a stall selling barbecue.
The stall is run by a mother and a daughter. The mother in front of her is protecting her daughter tightly and arguing with the fish man.
"What bullshit working hours system? Why can't our fish-human tribe's trading point work in your Baoyu County?"
A strong-looking fish man stood in front of the stall, holding a bamboo stick after eating the skewers in his hand, gesticulating up and down at the mother and daughter.
"That's right, the trading point can be used anywhere. In exchange for the working hours you can only use in Baoyu County, you will make a lot of money."
"Don't be ungrateful. Eating your barbecue is to give you face. Don't you humans just like face?" The surrounding murlocs also laughed.
"Fart, of course we charge the transaction points, but none of the transaction points can be used to deduct two working hours, so a 50% discount is required." Protecting her daughter behind her, the older mother still argued hard.
However, following the girl's frightened screams, these fishmen not only did not retreat, but became even more excited.
They picked up the half-finished kebabs from the barbecue stalls without paying first, then put them in their mouths and started chewing them, occasionally spitting out some food residue.
"Where did these fishmen come from?"
Su Mo's face turned cold obviously, and he asked Lu Yongyi coldly as he walked out.
These murlocs are not the obedient murlocs in the White Sand Ruins. They all look like ruffians.
Having been attacked by a fishman before, Sumo already had a lot of prejudices in his heart.
If he hadn't learned from Chen Shen the 'truth' why they were so rebellious, he would have rushed up to them by now.
But even so, even in the territory in the ruins, he could no longer tolerate the presence of such a disobedient fish-men in his territory.
If others can't do it, that's okay.
As the "sea god" of the fish people, Somo's idea from beginning to end is to treat the fish people as vassals of human beings and as part of the construction of the territory.
If these fishmen want to ride on the heads of humans and dominate, they can only rely on one mistake to become a privileged class.
