Chapter 25: Money moves people’s hearts
After dragging the fat man's body into the Taiyan Boat and briefly cleaning up the blood on the ground, Li Fan returned to the house as if nothing happened. Google search reading
"I really don't know what to say." Li Fan commented.
This fat man obviously hasn't figured out the situation yet. With some cleverness, he discovered that Li Fan might have sneaked in under an impersonation, so he impatiently came over to threaten him, probably in order to get some benefits from Li Fan.
But he didn't want to think about it. Li Fan was right to sneak into Liuli Island. But didn’t they, a group of outsiders, also obtain household registration under the guise of being disaster victims?
What is the essential difference between him and Li Fan?
Once you get the Liuli Island household registration, you really think of yourself as an aborigine.
Li Fan could see clearly that the immortal master who had covered his face and came to meet him, and the Tianbao Tower where Sun Zhang was located, acted very cautiously, for fear of being known by others.
Obviously, the identity of the mortals in the place where they were exiled cannot be seen in the light.
Because of this, Li Fan casually killed this fat man who came to threaten him regardless of life or death.
He didn't believe that Tianbao Tower and a group of people from Lijie would investigate this in a big way.
Furthermore, even if they found out that Fatty had been here before he disappeared, but now they can't even find his body, as long as Li Fan insists that he has never seen him, they can't do anything to Li Fan.
After all, if things get too big, it will not be beneficial to both parties.
And if Li Fan was hesitant, didn't dare to take action, and left the fat man alive, it might cause all kinds of troubles.
Therefore, Li Fan decisively chose to nip the signs of possible threats in the bud.
…
As Li Fan expected, a few days passed. Except for Su Changyu who came to inquire, the fat man's mysterious disappearance did not attract anyone else's attention.
This incident was just a small episode in Li Fan's island life, and he was quickly forgotten about it.
These days, Li Fan was inquiring about various affairs on the island while planning how to rationally use the treasures in the Taiyan boat.
Gradually, Li Fan got a general understanding of the Liuli Island where he is now.
The name of this sea is Congyun Sea.
The Sea of Clouds is vast and vast, with tens of thousands of islands scattered across it.
Liuli Island is located south of the central sea area of Congyun, and its size is medium.
Because the waters around the island are rich in a kind of delicious glass fish, it is named Liuli Island.
Glazed fish are not only very popular among mortals on the surrounding islands, but even the elixirs refined by some immortal masters use the glazed beads that are occasionally born in the body of the glazed fish.
Therefore, there is an immortal master on Liuli Island who collects a certain number of Liuli beads every year.
Immortal masters generally do not care about worldly affairs and are difficult for ordinary people to see. All affairs on Liuli Island are generally governed by the Liuli Mansion established by the owner of Liuli Island.
Island residents can get a job in Liuli Mansion. The higher the risk of the job, the higher the reward.
Among them, fishing for glass fish in the sea is the most popular.
There are no big risks, and the rewards are not cheap.
What's more important is that only 70% of the caught glass fish needs to be handed over, and 30% can be left to sell on your own.
So this fishing job is really a good job.
Unfortunately, going to sea requires a big boat, and the schools of glass fish are erratic. Searching requires a special spirit guide on the island.
The spirit guide will only be issued by Liuli Mansion when you go to sea, and it will be taken back when you return.
Fishing privately is no longer possible. And if caught, they will be executed directly.
Therefore, fishing for glass fish can only be carried out with the permission of Liuli Mansion.
Anyone who can go fishing is the envy of the island residents.
A fleet that went out to sea a few days ago not only returned with a big catch of glass fish, but also encountered a sunken ship.
This ship is said to have been used by the family to escape the storm, so it carried more than a dozen boxes of gold, silver and jewelry!
At this moment, all the fleets are cheap.
Regarding the items salvaged from the sunken ship, the rules on the island are the same as those of Glazed Fish. You can keep 30% of them yourself!
Therefore, when the fleet returned to the port, half of the island was in a sensation.
Even the island's property manager and money manager came to check it out in person.
Seeing the fleet members' faces almost crooked in smiles, many people on the island became jealous.
They all began to look for connections in private, hoping to get a qualification to go to sea next time.
…
In Li Fan's view, he could slowly wash away the countless treasures on the Taiyan Boat through the same operation, and the risk would be relatively small.
The only difficulty is how to obtain the qualifications to go to sea alone.
The existence of Tai Yanzhou must not be exposed.
There were too many people on the island who wanted to join the fleet. After asking around, Li Fan learned the key.
The owner of Liuli Island has three close confidants: Manager Zhao is responsible for the personnel on the island, Manager Qian is responsible for the property, and Manager Zhou is responsible for public security.
Most of the quotas for the fleet to go to sea are in the hands of steward Qian. Managers Zhao and Zhou always wanted to intervene, but they were always firmly controlled by Manager Qian. Only one or two fleets were allocated.
Wherever there are people, there is struggle.
Li Fan remembered Manager Zhao's reaction when he saw him on the day of naturalization, and thought that maybe he could meet Manager Zhao.
But Manager Zhao is not something that Li Fan can just see.
Li Fan is going to take Sun Zhang's route in Tianbao Tower.
After finding out the location, Li Fan came to the door of Tianbao Tower and wanted to meet Sun Zhang.
But it was rejected.
"Go, go, go, who are we, Elder Sun, and you can see him whenever you want? Hurry up and leave!" Several big men in black at the door looked at Li Fan with evil intentions, as if they would take action if they disagreed.
Seeing this, Li Fan had no choice but to leave first.
He felt a little strange in his heart. Tianbao Tower was open for business after all, so how could they drive people out without seeing anyone?
Moreover, these big men in black made the decision on their own without asking for instructions, as if they already knew who Li Fan was...
"You must have been ordered to not see me on purpose." After coming to the conclusion, Li Fan guessed that something happened to the people in Lijie, which caused Sun Zhang to turn his face and deny anyone.
After some inquiring, Li Fan found out what happened.
It turns out that Su Changyu resolutely chose to become an immortal master experimental subject in order to get rid of the miasma in his body as soon as possible.
Before leaving, Su Changyu signed his name on the remaining deed.
Since then, the three contracts have been completed and the contract has completely disappeared.
There is no longer any connection between Lijie and Tianbao Tower.
"No wonder he suddenly turned against us and deliberately avoided us. I just didn't expect Su Changyu to be so decisive." Li Fan sighed.
"Hey, we have advised him not to be so anxious. But how could he listen?" Li Fan also knew the person who said this, it was Xiao Heng who claimed to be the son of King Zhennan in the Tianbao Tower cave.
Xiao Heng seemed to have a very good relationship with Su Changyu, and he was extremely frustrated at the moment: "Brother Su wouldn't have fought so hard if it wasn't to save his terminally ill sister."
Li Fan was thoughtful after hearing this.
