Unexpectedly, these outsiders also gave him a cold smile.

One of them said, "You treat us well? The island master is really a forgetful person! Doesn't the island master know how he has treated us over the years?

You just treat us as your dogs. You rely on your status as the second son of Duke Cheng'en to act recklessly and show off your power on the island!

If you really want to say that he treated us well, it was Lord Cheng'en! You, a bastard who took over the magpie's nest, actually have the nerve to use Lord Cheng'en's kindness to flatter yourself!

You are not ashamed, we are all ashamed of you!"

Several people looked at Chen Shao and Chen Shou with disdain. Those looks were like sharp knives, ruthlessly peeling off their clothes and showing their most embarrassing and ugly side to everyone.

Although Chen Shou and Chen Shao were extremely dissatisfied, they were unable to refute at this moment.

Because although this person's words were very impolite, they were not wrong.

Langhuan Island was not a pirate den from the beginning. It was the Cheng'en Mansion that secretly spent money and used connections to send some prisoners and even fugitives to the island.

Then he got women, food and tools for these people, and gradually developed Langhuan Island into what it is today.

If not, the people on the island would not have agreed to Chen Shao becoming the island owner at such a young age.

They were rescued by the Chen family and were raised by the Chen family at their expense, so naturally they would feel grateful and be willing to give the Chen family some face.

It was not until they started the pirate business and made more and more money that their ambitions grew.

If the Cheng'en Mansion did not fall, they would naturally be willing to serve as dogs for the Chen family.

However, the Cheng'en Mansion no longer exists, and the court is still looking for the remnants of the Chen family.

They did not pack up and hand over all the Chen family members on the island, which was already considered as repaying the Chen family's kindness.

Chen Shao wants to keep riding on their heads forever, which is simply wishful thinking!

It would be fine if he could find strong foreign aid and let them continue to reap the benefits.

But his backers are all dead, and now he himself has become a toothless sick tiger. Why should he expect them to continue to obey him?

Chen Shao did support them, but they also did a lot for Chen Shao, and they had already paid him back!

A dark-faced man with a full beard said directly: "Chen Shao, for the sake of our brotherhood, we can give you a favor.

If you tell us all the secrets you know, we won't make things difficult for you. But if you disregard our brotherhood and insist on drinking a toast and then refuse to drink, then don't blame us for being ungrateful!

Chen Shao sneered: "What kind of punishment do you want me to drink?"

"Bring it in!"

As soon as the big man finished speaking, Mrs. Cao and Chen Qian were brought in.

Chen Qian was only six years old. When he saw Chen Shao, he angrily complained: "Father! They dared to disrespect me and my mother. Kill them!"

Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked hard from behind and fell to the ground!

"Ah—" Chen Qian screamed, raised his head from the ground, and looked at Chen Shao in horror, "Father, save me!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, blood flowed out, and there were two broken front teeth.

When he was kicked to the ground, his jaw hit the ground so hard that two of his teeth broke on the spot and blood gushed out!

"Qian'er!"

Mrs. Cao screamed and tried to move forward, but someone grabbed her arms tightly and she couldn't take a single step forward.

The dark-faced man looked at Madam Cao's appearance and figure presumptuously, and said with a half-smile: "The island master has been very lucky in recent years. With such a beauty by his side, he doesn't even let the brothers take a few more glances."

Chen Shao's face turned ugly, and he said angrily: "My wife's father is Master Cao of Qingyun Academy, and her uncle is the Minister of Personnel. If you don't want to die, you'd better be polite to her!"

As soon as he said this, the conference room suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Looking at the reactions of the crowd, Chen Shao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth in satisfaction. He swept his eyes over everyone's faces one by one, admiring the way their expressions changed.
