Chapter 121: Territory Upgrade, a Sinister Plan (3)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

If there really was an archipelago here, as the first to occupy it, he would undoubtedly receive generous rewards from Lord Gassani!

...

At that time, beautiful women and wealth would be within his grasp!

As for the lord on the archipelago, he didn’t concern himself with it.

According to Raymond’s account, that lord only had a few dozen units at most, and their highest rank was only Tier 2, 5 stars. But this time, he brought two fully equipped warships with elite Guild Escorts, totaling four hundred units, and their rank reached Tier 2, 9 stars!

Based on Lord Gassani’s orders, the two warships wouldn’t approach the archipelago immediately. They would wait for him to make contact with the lord and determine the location of his territory.

Then, they would inform the elite Guild Escorts about the warships and launch a night-time raid.

With this plan, it was bound to be successful. He couldn’t think of anything that would cause their operation to fail.

Returning to his senses, a sailor on the lookout tower shouted loudly, “Target archipelago spotted!”

Willow quickly picked up his binoculars and soon saw the outlines of several islands on the distant sea surface.

Without hesitation, he directed the White Sands Princess towards the largest island among them.

Meanwhile, the two warships and a transport ship carrying the first batch of construction resources leisurely remained a few nautical miles away from the archipelago.

By the time Jichen saw the White Sands Princess, it was already afternoon.

Under the orange sunlight, the White Sand Princess stopped on the east side of the main island. Several small boats carrying people arrived at the beach.

Ji Chen looked at the people who got off the boat and frowned.

“Where’s Raymond?”

The leader of the group, Willow, smiled when he heard that. “Lord Raymond has fallen seriously ill and stayed at the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce. He asked me to come here and negotiate this transaction with you, as well as discuss future dealings.”

“Ill? It’s only been a little over a week since he returned, and he suddenly falls ill?” Ji Chen sighed, with a hint of regret on his face.

“That’s quite a coincidence. He caught a cold on the way back and only started treatment after returning to the port, so it became quite serious.”

Ji Chen didn’t say much. “Since Raymond asked you to handle the trade, you should be aware of the conditions we discussed before, right?”

Upon hearing this, Willow’s heart skipped a beat. Jichen noticed a slight change in his expression and squinted his eyes. “You wouldn’t happen to have forgotten, have you?”

“Haha… You’re joking, Your Excellency. How could we possibly forget?” Willow forced a stiff smile, suppressing his growing unease, and replied as calmly as possible. “You requested various resources to be transported by our ships, and in exchange, you would provide the specialty products of this archipelago.” “You asked for laborers and various resources, and they are all loaded on our ships. However, it’s getting late now, and it’s not convenient to unload the cargo. How about we conduct the trade tomorrow?”

Ji Chen glanced at the sky. The sun was setting, casting a dim light, and it indeed wasn’t a good time for transporting goods.

Jichen gazed deeply at Willow and said, “Guests are welcome. Let me take you to my territory for a night’s rest.”

Almost imperceptibly, Ji Chen emphasized the word “guest”, his grip on it tightening slightly.

However, Willow didn’t notice this and was pleasantly surprised by Ji Chen’s subsequent words. He hadn’t expected Ji Chen to proactively extend the invitation before he even had the chance to suggest it.

“Well, you’ve played right into our hands. You have only yourself to blame for having such a valuable opportunity.” Willow smirked inwardly, while outwardly expressing deep gratitude. “Thank you for your hospitality. Resting on the ship isn’t exactly comfortable.”

Jichen nodded, not saying much, and turned to walk towards his territory.

The two of them, one in front of the other, harbored their own sinister intentions..
