Driven out of my home in the apocalypse, I built a fortress in return.

Chapter 692 Thieves' Alliance!

"Yes! Thank you, Island Lord! I will definitely bring more good goods next time!" Captain Xiluo was overjoyed upon hearing Wu Weier's words and quickly bowed.

To know.

For this business deal, he not only spent all his savings, but also borrowed money from many people.

If he fails this time, he will be bankrupt and may even lose his family.

But now, Captain Ciro knows that he is about to rise to great heights!

That afternoon, two more caravans arrived at Villain Island and soon learned that the island's lord had subdued the Blood Eagle Pirates. All the merchants were overjoyed.

After all, the Blood Eagle Pirates have been running rampant in the seas for years, posing the biggest threat to their business.

Now that this biggest threat has been eliminated, they can trade with peace of mind.

"Once trade expands, our acquisition plan can proceed smoothly." Inside the castle, Wu Weier looked at the acquisition list handed to her by her subordinates, a satisfied smile on her lips.

In their world, gold and silver mines are practically like garbage.

But now, they have acquired a lot of supplies using only some gold and silver mines brought from another world. Now that the trade route is open, even more people will come to Villain Island to do business.

"When we return to Dragon City in ten days, we'll definitely have a surprise for the City Lord!"

"And by then... we won't need to hide anything in this world anymore!"

.........

Wu Weier and her friends' businesses are developing rapidly.

Longcheng is also developing rapidly.

Since acquiring a sugarcane field, Xiao Yu has cultivated a new piece of farmland.

At the same time, two new buildings were constructed in the inner city: a new workshop, a brewery, and a sugar factory.

Once wheat and sugarcane yields increase, it will be able to operate smoothly.

Of course, because of the similar incidents involving Er Gouzi, Xiao Yu has become increasingly strict in managing the various departments of Longcheng. He has directly put Honglian, Xiaoyu Yingzi, and the other two in charge of personnel recruitment.

For each recruitment drive, one of the three candidates must be present.

This clearly demonstrates their stance: there can be no carelessness when it comes to talent recruitment.

All the staff members involved realized the city lord's seriousness, and no one dared to cause any trouble. After all, none of them wanted to end up like Er Gouzi, being driven out of the inner city and stripped of all the wonderful life they had!

In that case, they might as well just die.

Meanwhile, the Earth Dragon Turtle was also rushing to the underground city.

After all, the process of spiritual energy revival is accelerating.

Xiao Yu's sense of urgency was growing stronger.

Meanwhile, in the outer city, there have been some undercurrents of activity these past few days.

At this moment, on the third floor of the restaurant, inside the VIP private room...

"As expected of Brother Aokiji! I admire you!" Tie Lin, who was originally somewhat wary and suspicious of Aokiji, has now completely changed his attitude and looks at him with admiration and respect.

"Come! Let me offer you a toast!"

With that, he laughed heartily, picked up a glass of wine, clinked glasses with Aokiji, and downed it in one gulp.

"Yes! Brother Aokiji, I'd like to toast you too!"

Green Calyx, standing beside him, also wore a smile, gently clinking glasses with Blue Pheasant and taking a small sip.

"Hahaha! No problem, no problem!" Aokiji's face was flushed from drinking, and he occasionally let out a hearty laugh, appearing very heroic and somewhat unrestrained.

At first, the group was quite wary when they first saw Aokiji.

However, in the past two days, Qingzhi led them to find one person after another who had been punished by Dragon City.

For example, a former thief almost had his hands chopped off for stealing.

In the end, because there were no victims and no actual losses, a letter of understanding was issued, and this person managed to keep his hands.

However, Aokiji somehow found out about these things.

With just a few words, he persuaded the man to join the operation.

Revenge on Dragon City.

Soon, Aokiji secretly contacted many people.

It's all the same set of coercion and enticement tactics used to trick the other party into participating in the operation.

It should be noted that the laws of Dragon City are extremely strict.

Among the people who reside in Longcheng, countless have been punished, some lightly and some severely.

If it weren't for the impending catastrophe, which forces some to hide in Dragon City and temporarily endure the calamity, their discontent with Dragon City would have been palpable long ago.

So, it only took two or three days.

Under the persuasion of Aokiji's silver tongue.

The Thieves' Guild now has more than a dozen members.

Among them were even two sixth-level experts!

Moreover, some of these people originally lived in the inner city.

Being kicked out for committing a crime naturally breeds resentment.

These people all wanted to take revenge on the heartless Lord of Dragon City.

Among them was Er Gouzi, who had been slacking off at work these past two days and even picking his toes while cleaning. As soon as he heard Qingzhi and the others say that they wanted to enter Dragon City to steal something, he immediately said that he was very familiar with the inner city and would be willing to lead the way once they entered.

It's easy to see that he has absolutely no remorse!

And with the addition of these people.

Tielin and Lü'e, the brother and sister duo, entered the inner city to steal things, which greatly boosted their confidence.

They naturally valued the blue pheasant highly.

A few moments later, after several rounds of drinks.

"My dear brother and sister-in-law!" Qingzhi looked at Tielin and Lü'e with red eyes, and asked somewhat drunkenly, "We have enough manpower now, when do you want to make your move?"

"Well..."

Upon hearing this, Tie Lin and the Lü E siblings exchanged a subtle glance for a moment before shaking their heads and saying in a deep voice, "There's no rush now. With our current strength, we can't do anything in Dragon City. Let's wait for someone else."

"Waiting for someone?"

Aokiji's eyes flickered, and he said with a dissatisfied look, "Isn't having me enough?"

"Haha, Brother Aokiji is joking!" Tielin laughed immediately, patted Aokiji on the shoulder, and said, "With Brother Aokiji's abilities, one person can be worth a thousand troops! However, the person we are waiting for is also very important. With him, our chances of winning will be even greater."

"Yes, Brother Qingzhi! Even if that person joins, he won't be as high-ranking as you!" Green Calyx said with a smile, flattering him.

Hearing the siblings' compliments, Aokiji withdrew his displeasure and asked in confusion, "Who is this person that you value so much? And where is that person now?"

“That person is in a place called Mangu City, which happens to be a place we pass through on our way to Dragon City. I believe we will be able to reach Mangu City in another day or two. He is a bit troublesome, and we need Brother Qingzhi’s help to persuade him. Once Brother Qingzhi persuades him, we will tell you the specific plan…” Green Calyx said with a smile.

"Fine, I'll wait two more days."
