Chapter 182 Money is Really Useful
In this day and age, people who can remain calm in the face of money and interests are rare. When Duke White Tiger and Duke Dragon Wing heard that the dividends were about to be distributed, they all sent their own full-power representatives to rush to the dividend meeting held by Liu Rengui.
Liu Rengui first strictly followed the agreement signed in advance:
Fifty percent of the profits belonged to Zhang Wei;
30% was allocated to Duke Baihu;
The remaining 20% belongs to Duke Longyi.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Rengui took out a full 20% from Zhang Wei's 50% dividend as compensation for the three-day-long looting of Pada Port.
Not only that, Liu Rengui frankly stated that in addition to the fruitful harvest this time, he also successfully intercepted a large number of specialty items from the kingdom at the Port of Imana.
However, the second dividend distribution can only be made after the goods are exported to other countries and corresponding profits are earned.
Finally, Liu Rengui specifically instructed the envoy of Duke Longyi to bring a message to his master when he returned - he hoped that Duke Longyi could strengthen the construction of various related facilities in Pada Port as soon as possible, with special attention paid to the ship maintenance sector.
After all, he doesn't want to slow down his money-making process because the port infrastructure fails to meet standards.
From beginning to end, Liu Rengui did not mention any words about persuading peace and ceasefire.
However, soon after the two envoys returned to their respective duke's residences with their first share of the dividends, the two sides indeed stopped fighting and called off the conflict.
Liu Rengui has been practicing a saying from beginning to end: Few people can resist money.
As the saying goes, to destroy someone's financial resources is like killing his parents.
Liu Rengui's act of taking the initiative to expose himself as "Li Gui pretending to be Li Kui" did indeed improve the status of some black laborers in the Neon Empire.
However, the Neon Empire was not ignorant, and they were naturally able to realize that their army stationed in Pada Port might have encountered an accident.
Otherwise, how could Liu Rengui obtain those warships belonging to the Neon Empire?
You know, these things can't be bought with money alone.
What's more, how could such a large fleet slip away from the noses of the Neon Army in Pada Port without being noticed?
The only reasonable guess of the Neon Empire is that Liu Rengui must have used some unknown means to not only successfully annihilate the Neon Empire army in Pada Port, but also captured their warships.
Based on this inference, the Neon Empire's first reaction was to quickly dispatch a powerful military force consisting of five fleets and a total of sixty warships, and resolutely embark on an expedition to Pada Port.
The primary purpose behind this action of the Neon Empire is actually very simple and clear - that is to once again firmly blockade Zhang Wei's navy in the West Sea of the Kingdom and absolutely not tolerate Zhang Wei's fleet to continue to plunder the merchant ships of the Neon Empire.
At the same time, the Neon Empire also sent a special envoy to find Duke Longyi, solemnly warning Duke Longyi not to play tricks in secret, and especially emphasized that he must not collude with Zhang Wei to rob the Neon Empire's merchant ships.
Fortunately, the incident in which Liu Rengui ordered the mercenaries under Duke Baihu to seize Pada Port turned out to be a perfect excuse for Duke Longyi to deal with the questioning of the Neon envoy.
When the Neon envoy saw this situation, he mistakenly believed that Duke Longyi was deliberately concealing the relevant information because of previous grudges, but he did not realize that this was just Duke Longyi's excuse.
Afterwards, the Neon Empire's astonishingly large and powerful navy easily captured the Port of Pada, which had no defenses at all.
Faced with the fierce offensive of the powerful navy of the Neon Empire, Liu Rengui once again made an unexpected military decision: he did not lead the privateering fleet to retreat to Xina Port to seek self-protection. Instead, relying on the super-high maneuverability of his privateering fleet and the vast advantages of the Endless Sea, he resolutely chose to avoid the main force of the Neon Empire Navy.
Liu Rengui planned to adopt a roundabout tactic, avoiding the defense line of the Neon Empire Navy near Pada Port and heading straight north, aiming directly at the Neon Empire merchant fleet in Imana Port.
He planned to use the strategy of besieging Wei to save Zhao to force the Neon Empire Navy to withdraw from Pada Port.
To this end, Liu Rengui made careful preparations. Not only did he fill all the cargo holds with supplies, he also stuffed the existing magic bags with various necessities and goods.
In Liu Rengui's view, this vast ocean must have boundaries, and perhaps through this detour, there will be a chance to explore new land areas.
Perhaps it was because Liu Rengui was in great luck, or perhaps the reincarnated goddess once again favored Zhang Wei's forces, that they accidentally discovered some islands and a port called Andaman Port during this unpredictable voyage.
As the ship slowly entered the Andaman Port, Liu Rengui took out the nautical chart given to him by Zhang Wei and examined it carefully.
Surprisingly, after turning over the nautical chart, a corner of the originally dark picture suddenly lit up - a tiny area in the northeast direction became clearly visible.
Liu Rengui understood instantly: they did not find the New World by accident, but broke into a brand new world!
Anyone would be ecstatic when discovering the door to a whole new world, and this was especially true for Liu Rengui.
What is even more exciting is that on the same island as Andaman Port there is a metropolis called Canterbury!
After starting trade exchanges with local residents, Liu Rengui was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a strong complementarity in the resources between the two sides.
This means that they can not only establish stable trade relations with this place and gain huge profits from it;
At the same time, it also opened up a new path to wealth for Zhang Wei's forces.
However, despite his excitement, Liu Rengui did not forget his important mission - to plunder the Japanese Empire's maritime trade routes.
With a vision for the future and determination to complete the mission, he led the fleet to set sail amid the warm cheers of the locals.
At the same time, a heated debate is brewing within the Neon Empire Navy: Should they continue westward and capture the port of Zovia controlled by the Duke of White Tiger?
Supporters firmly believe that this move will not only incorporate the ports in the southern part of the Holy Light Kingdom into the territory of the Neon Empire, but will also further put pressure on the West and directly threaten Zhang Wei's maritime trade routes and Xinna Port.
In fact, the real intention of these supporters was to seize the port of Sina and then take over all the ports in the kingdom in one fell swoop. In their view, once the strategic intention was achieved, it would bring supreme glory and huge benefits.
