protect our patriarch

Chapter 330 Sister-in-law is mighty!Sister-in-law is domineering! (seeking a monthly ticket)

……

In the vast blue waters of the Qingluo Sea, the sea water is clear and clean, and the water temperature is cold.

In this sea area, the growth rate of all kinds of fresh seafood is relatively slow, which adds to the quality and flavor of these seafood.Once upon a time, this vast sea area was full of fishing boats, and the production was plentiful.

It's a pity that pirates gradually prospered in the Qingluo Sea area.So much so that the fishery economy is almost at a standstill now, and the number of commercial ships is [-]-[-]% less than that of a hundred years ago.

Only the merchant ships of the Cao family and the Fang family can sail unimpeded in this sea area.

now.

In this vast sea, a fleet is forming a stable formation, cutting through the wind and waves, and moving forward quickly.

Among this fleet, the most eye-catching one is a large merchant ship with a unique style.

The name of this ship is "Luo Miao", and it is the latest merchant ship jointly built by Donggang Chen and Changning Wang.

It doesn't have several towering masts like ordinary sea ships, but instead erects a huge cylindrical object where the mast should be.

Its volume is also much larger than that of ordinary sea ships. Many of the joints have used the latest steel structure. In addition to the traditional sails, there is also a huge power cabin at the bottom of the cabin. A huge boiler, and a propeller driven by a steam structure.

This is the latest refiner product launched by Wang's secret research institute - "Wang's Steam Engine".

When it comes to the steam engine, it is one of the biggest weapons to promote the progress of earth civilization.Every ordinary person knows the principle of the steam engine, but most ordinary people do not know the specific structure of the steam engine.

Just like Wang Shouzhe, he certainly knows that steam can be used to generate power, and he also vaguely knows some general structures.But if you want him to abruptly design a whole set of steam engine structures, that's something you can't do even if you kill him.

Fortunately, after decades of development, Wang's research institute has already been filled with talents.Regarding the subject of steam power, Wang Shouzhe had already put forward concepts and principles, as well as general structural directions and ideas decades ago.

The structure of steam power is actually not complicated, and there is no shortage of smart people in this world. The reason why we encounter technical bottlenecks is often just a lack of ideas and directions.

After having a clear idea and direction, blacksmiths, refiners and technicians, with the encouragement of Qianjin, overcome various difficulties little by little, and it took decades.Such a set of huge structure, but very primitive steam power system was created.

But no matter how primitive it is, it is still a steam system, which belongs to the "high-end technology" of the primary level of "boiling water", which is much more advanced than pure sail kinetic energy.

You must know that the biggest problem restricting the development of the shipping industry is the cargo carrying capacity of ships.Because only a strong enough cargo capacity can bring enough profits.

What limits the cargo carrying capacity of a ship is actually power.

Using sails as power is not only easily affected by climate and ocean currents, but also forced to stop sailing for nearly half of the year, and the power it can provide is also limited, and the transportation speed is really not very fast.

But with the steam system as the power, there is no such trouble.

The upper limit of the power that the steam system can generate is much higher than that of sails. Moreover, steam power is more stable than sail power. It is very little affected by climate and ocean currents, and can provide stable and long-term powerful power.Even if it is going against the current, the speed will never be too slow.

Besides, because the price of coal is very low in this world, its consumption is not high.

Based on this, the shipping industry still has great potential for development in the future.

However, as of now, Wang's steam power system is still in the state of experimentation and needs to be continuously improved in the process of practice, and it is far from the point where it can be put into large-scale production.

"Luo Miao" is Wang's work to test the waters.

At the same time, this large merchant ship named "Luo Miao" is also the flagship of the entire fleet.

It carries the most precious foreign glass products, and there are twelve Shenwei cannons installed on the ship. Its defense force is so powerful that it is no exaggeration to call it a "mobile war fortress at sea".

Compared with the Luo Miao, the defense strength of the other nine merchant ships is much inferior, and each merchant ship only has one Shenwei cannon.

The fore string deck of "Luo Miao" is very high, five or six feet above the water level, which makes it look far more handsome than ordinary sea ships.

At this moment, at the front of the deck, beside a Shenwei cannon, there is a woman standing gracefully.

She looked quite handsome, her long hair was simply tied into a ponytail behind her head, and she didn't have any extra decorations on her body.Against the backdrop of the basalt costume and cloak, her figure is tall and exquisite, and she looks heroic, very sassy and neat.

This woman is naturally the person in charge of this fleet, Wang Luomiao.

Generally, women from high-grade Xuanwu families, some of the better ones will take the route of learning palaces, and most of the rest will take the way of marrying and having children, and marrying for the family. own marriage.

Cao Lina is a typical example.As a descendant of the Cao family from Liaoyuan, her qualifications are not bad, but she can only obey the family's arrangement and marry Qian Qinhong of the Qian family in Longzuo as the sequel.

Wang, however, was a little different.

Under Wang Shouzhe's insistence, all women in the Wang clan enjoy the same rights and treatment as men, including marriage.Any woman of the Wang family has the right to choose to marry or not to marry, and the family will only give suggestions without forcing.Even, it is more powerful than the men of the family. After all, some men have not married and had children for a long time, and the family will have certain measures...

On this point, Wang Shouzhe received strong support from Longyan Patriarch.

Therefore, Wang Luomiao, Wang Shouzhe's half-sister, has never been married so far.Like the men of the same generation in the family, she used her own efforts and abilities to prop up a sky for the family.

Sea trade has always been difficult.

Wang Luomiao chose this method to bear part of the responsibility for the family and also to shoulder part of the burden for his brother Wang Shouzhe.In the past 20 years, she has learned everything she can learn bit by bit, growing up step by step, and integrating step by step.

The sea breeze is blowing, and the cloak is hunting.

With the baptism of the years, the ignorant girl at the beginning has gradually transformed into a mature and independent heroine.

"Miss Luo Miao, it's windy outside."

At some point, a gentle and handsome young man appeared behind Wang Luomiao.

He looked at Wang Luomiao, and said with concern: "Go back and rest first~ In this piece of Qingluo Sea, no pirate has dared to touch a ship flying Fang's flag."

Although this caravan belongs to the Wang family's in-law alliance, it is dedicated to trading with the Fang family in the far distance.Because of the huge profits, the Fang family paid more and more attention to this trade line, and sent the family's contemporary son, Fang Jinghui, to follow up and connect.

This young man was naturally Fang Jinghui.

The two sides have cooperated for 20 years, and the relationship has become closer and closer.

Fang Jinghui's age is not much older than Luo Miao's. Despite his elegant and refined demeanor, his overall strength has reached the peak of the third level of Lingtai Realm.To be sent to the academy, he must be a core disciple of Ji Mingyu's level.

It can be seen that the background of the Liaoyuan Fang family has far surpassed that of the general sixth-rank family, and now it happens to be on the verge of impacting the fifth-rank Zifu family.Once they succeed in attacking the Zifu, and with Fang You'an, a direct disciple of the Zifu Academy in Longzuo, as the Austrian aid, the future development potential will be huge.

"Mr. Jinghui." Wang Luomiao bowed his head slightly in greeting, "This time there are a lot of glassware on board, I'd better keep an eye on it, and respond quickly if something happens."

As the family head's direct sister, Wang Luomiao received first-class education and resources since she was a child.

Although due to the depletion of resources in the subsequent Shenwu Dynasty trial field, she failed to obtain the primary bloodline qualification improvement liquid, but she is Wang Shouzhe's younger sister, and Wang Shouzhe will naturally not treat her badly.

With the three pills of "Enlightenment", "Blood Quenching", and "Marrow Cleansing", her blood aptitude has already reached the level of a small Tianjiao of the middle grade C.Later, among the batch of wedding dress blood Gu that Wang Shouzhe obtained, one was specially reserved for her. After using it, her bloodline aptitude crossed the threshold of middle-grade and high-grade, and reached top-grade Ding.

Now, she is already the pride of a generation.

However, after all, she is ten years younger than Wang Shouzhe, and she started a little later. Her current strength is only in the middle and late stages of the third level of the Lingtai Realm, and there is still a little distance from breaking through the middle stage of the Lingtai Realm.

With this kind of bloodline talent, although there is still a little risk to be promoted to the Purple Mansion Realm, it is not difficult to advance to the Heavenly Human Realm.What's more, Wang's is now in a stage of rapid development, and the annual income of various industries is gradually increasing.

Just like the Frozen Fiend Floating Island developed under the auspices of the Academy, it has now entered the stage of annual income of hundreds of thousands.And Shouda Commercial Bank, which invested heavily in the past, has already returned its capital, and its annual income is extremely considerable.

What everyone in the Wang family is looking forward to the most is Xin'an Town. Now Xin'an Town has begun large-scale land reclamation and land reclamation. The number of fertile land has continued to increase, bringing considerable benefits to the Wang family, which mainly grows grain.

Moreover, Xin'an Town belongs to Xinkaihuang Town. According to the law of Dagan, it can enjoy 30 years of preferential treatment from national tax and county tax. It only needs to pay the guard tax of Changningwei and the family tax given to the Wang family.If it is fertile land registered under Wang's name, even [-]% of the family tax will be exempted.

Therefore, the income of Xin'an Town is particularly considerable.

After having the money, Wang Shouzhe began to search for marrow-washing pills and infinite treasure pills that could improve his aptitude.With Wang Luomiao's status and family contribution, it may not be impossible to get another Wuji Treasure Pill in the future.

Gossip aside.

Seeing that Wang Luomiao's attitude was so firm, Fang Jinghui sighed helplessly: "Since that's the case, let me talk to Miss Luomiao here~"

After saying that, he walked up to Wang Luomiao, and said in a chatty tone: "In five or six days, we will arrive at Fangshi's Panshui Port, and it will take a few days to count and unload the cargo. Miss Luomiao, can you help me?" What are your plans? Not planning to go shopping..."

While the two were talking.

Suddenly.

A sharp and ear-piercing scream sounded suddenly.

It was the watchman on the watchtower who discovered the enemy's situation and blew the warning whistle.

In an instant, the spirits of everyone in the merchant fleet tensed up. Wang Luomiao and Fang Jinghui also stopped talking immediately and looked up at the observation deck.

On the watchtower, the deputy watchman was waving the flag in an orderly manner, conveying the message with the flag language.

"The pirates are attacking?" Fang Jinghui's expression changed, "Which pirates are they that dare to plunder even our merchant ships?"

Wang Luomiao's face turned cold, and immediately made a series of deployments and arrangements according to the number of pirate ships and the direction of attack conveyed by the semaphore.

As the flagship "Luo Miao", it turned around and took the initiative to block the attacking pirates.On the deck, the twelve Shenwei cannons were all loaded and ready for battle.

All the non-combatants hid in the cabin, and those left on the deck were all capable Xuanwu monks and family members who knew how to operate the mighty cannon.

Merchant ships have a large cargo capacity, and it is impossible to outrun the pirates. It is most cost-effective to rely on the advantage of the "telescope" to discover the enemy's situation first, and to put up a defensive formation.

Almost at the same time that the fleet was dispatched, dozens of small dots appeared on the vast sea.Those were dozens of small and medium-sized fast boats, with their sails bulging, and they were rushing towards the direction of the wind.

After those dozens of fast boats, several large sea-going ships followed.The speed of these large sea ships is slightly slower than that of the fast ships, but it is more than twice as fast as the large sea ships used by the caravan to carry cargo.

Above these ships, the flags of pirates fluttered high, and before they approached, they brought a strong sense of oppression to everyone in the caravan.

Soon, the Clippers became more and more clear in everyone's sight, and the distance between the two sides began to shorten rapidly.

A fierce naval battle broke out.

The thunderous roar of the Shenwei Cannon caused waves of water to explode on the sea.If you are lucky enough, you can also sink a small clipper.

As the pirates approached quickly, the opponent's ballista also began to counterattack.

However, compared with the neat results of the Shenwei Cannon, the effect of the ballista pales in comparison.

"Damn!" Nie Long, the pirate leader with a rough appearance, was so angry that his eyes almost burst into flames, "Damn Shenwei Cannon, how can it be so powerful?"

He had also heard before that the Shenwei cannons of the Wang family and the Chen family were very powerful, and he sneered at them.Unexpectedly, now they have tasted the bitterness, not only many brothers were killed by the Shenwei cannon, even the boat was destroyed a lot. .

"Brothers keep going!"

Nie Long was so angry that his red hair stretched out, and his momentum suddenly rose.

At the same time, he stepped on the deck with one leg, and the whole person suddenly rose into the air, stepped on the air, and flew towards the direction of the Luo Miao.

But in a short while, his figure had already reached the sky above the caravan flagship Luo Miao.

Following his right hand, a thick-backed broadsword suddenly appeared in his palm, it was a magic weapon-level long knife.

This was given to him by Cao Youbin, the previous Patriarch of the Cao Clan, when he was promoted to Heaven and Human Realm.Otherwise, with his strength and financial resources, it would not be so easy to obtain such a magical sword.

Nie Long held the saber in both hands, and slashed at the flagship.

In an instant, a massive amount of profound energy surged out, condensed into a semi-circular knife light several feet in size, and whizzed away, majestic, domineering and tragic.

It is very obvious that Nie Long is a master of swordsman, and has already comprehended some swordsmanship.

At this moment, he was suspended in the air, his burly body was like a hill, and the profound energy fluctuations all over his body were even more surging, like raging waves. Coupled with the overwhelming blade light, he was really powerful.

Even if he seems to be just a random knife, the power of this knife is still enough to chop the waves and take people's hearts.

This is the power of heaven and man!
When a Xuanwu cultivator in the Heaven-Human Realm goes all out to attack, the fighting power that erupts is extremely terrifying.What kind of merchant ship, what kind of divine power gun, are of no help at all.

This is also the reason why the existence of an ancestor of heaven and man can dominate the place and become a powerful force.

A cultivator in the Heaven-Human Realm has already left the mortal level, and it is very possible to destroy an ordinary eighth-rank family with his own strength.And at critical moments, it can often influence the direction of a small-scale war.

"No, it's the 'Red-haired Dragon King' Nie Long, Miss Luomiao, be careful!" Fang Jinghui's face turned pale, and he hurriedly stood in front of Wang Luomiao. With a flick of his left hand, a spiritual shield flew up, releasing a beam of energy The shield blocked both of them.

It's just that with his strength, to block this move is purely a mantis' arm.

At this critical moment, a long whistle suddenly sounded inside the "Luo Miao".I saw a blue water dragon bursting out of the cabin, hitting the blade like a sharp arrow.

"boom!"

The two energies collided fiercely, and a shock wave spread in all directions. The mast and deck of the "Luo Miao" all burst.

at the same time.

A slender and burly old man flew out of the cabin with a silver spear in his hand, hovered in the air opposite the "Red-haired Dragon King" Nie Long, and laughed loudly: "Nie Long, if I'm here, it's not my turn." Until you are arrogant."

"It's you? Chen Ruhong, the patriarch of the Chen family?" Nie Long's pupils shrank, and his expression suddenly became serious. "You didn't stay in Donggang well, and you came out to follow the boat?"

He was also very afraid of Chen Ruhong. It was rumored that after this person was promoted to the realm of heaven and man, he had wiped out several waves of pirates in the East China Sea, even including a big bandit in the realm of heaven and humanity.

That big bandit has been rampant in the waters near the East China Sea for more than a hundred years. Even the King of the East Sea and others of the East Sea Guard had no choice but to die in the hands of Chen Ruhong, a newly promoted Heaven and Human Realm.

That battle also made Chen Ruhong famous, and all the young people in the East China Sea curled up for a while.

Many people speculated that Chen Ruhong's bloodline talent might not be simple, otherwise it would not be possible to advance so quickly and possess the strength to kill his peers.

"Of course, the old man went out to wipe out you ghosts." Chen Ruhong said indifferently, "Nie Long, today is your death day."

"Chen Ruhong, don't be too reckless! I, Nie Long, have been rampant in the Qingluo Sea for many years, and my cultivation level is much higher than yours. What are you going to use to kill me?" Nie Long became furious, his body soared, and he slashed at him .

This knife was not as casual as the previous one, but was used with all its strength in a serious manner, and the knife became more and more domineering, with a tragic implication of going forward.

"Humph~!"

Chen Ruhong snorted coldly, and raised his gun to meet him without fear.

"Boom!"

The two celestial beings fought together in the air, and even the sea under their feet was shocked by layers of waves.

Under Chen Ruhong's intentional or unintentional guidance, the two fought constantly away from the Luo Miao, so as not to hurt innocent people.

This scene made Fang Jinghui pleasantly surprised: "Miss Luo Miao, senior Ru Hong is also secretly guarding? In this way, this wave of pirates is doomed. Let's kill the enemy together and defeat the pirate minions first."

"Sigh~~ Mr. Jinghui, I'm afraid you are thinking too simply. This raid by pirates is definitely not a coincidence." Wang Luomiao sighed and looked at Fang Jinghui helplessly.

Speaking of which, Fang Jinghui should only need to meet him in Pangang, Liaoyuan. How could she, Wang Luomiao, know what she was thinking if he had to escort him back and forth several times?
It's not that she, Wang Luomiao, is ruthless, it's just that there are too many outstanding children in the usual family, and Fang Jinghui's overall performance can only be called mediocre.

Not to mention compared with her brother Wang Shouzhe, even her brothers Shou Yong and Shou Lian are far behind.

Speaking of this shipping, her brother Wang Shouzhe planned it all. The goods on these ten merchant ships were all genuine goods at a fair price, but her brother used them as bait to lure the secret enemy into action.

Wang Luomiao has no way of knowing why her brother knew something would happen, but she has witnessed too many miracles since she was a child, and she has unconditional trust in her brother.

This time, he was caught by his brother again.

"Miss Luomiao, are you saying that there are behind-the-scenes instigations behind the pirate attack?" Fang Jinghui was not too stupid after all, and immediately thought of something belatedly, "Could it be Cao's? The Cao family has always coveted the interests of our sea trade, but they offended the Qing'an Zuoqiu family more than ten years ago, so they couldn't take care of themselves."

His voice just fell.

On Haikou's flagship, another monk with a strong aura soared into the sky, and in just a few breaths, he came over the "Luomiao". Human Realm is guarding in secret, hmph, I have underestimated you. It's a pity that with me, Cao Bangyan, none of you can escape today."

"Cao Bangyan! How could it be you? You, you, you, you are so courageous." Fang Jinghui's face turned pale again. Compared to pirates like Nie Long, Cao Bangyan is a well-known arrogance in Liaoyuan County .

Moreover, it is rumored that this son has always been vengeful and ruthless in his actions.Anyone who offended him would end up miserable.Fang Jinghui had even heard rumors that Cao Bangyan was a hungry ghost, and that many girls from eighth and ninth grade families were targeted and ruined in secret.

It's just that these are rumors, and there is no real evidence, and no one dares to come out to sue Cao Bangyan.

"Fang Jinghui, hehehe~" Cao Bangyan laughed a few times jokingly, "You are so stupid, this sea of ​​green radish is vast. When you are all dead, who would know that I did it?"

"You..." Fang Jinghui was so angry that he almost vomited blood. When he was about to refute a few words, Wang Luomiao gently pulled her arm and dragged her behind. She raised her head and said loudly, "Cao Bangyan, what is the reason?" , let you drive pirates to rob our merchant ships?"

Cao Bangyan slowly floated onto the boat, staring at Wang Luomiao greedily: "Little sister, are you Luo Miao, the queen of the Wang family? Sure enough, it is as rumored, with a sassy demeanor and extraordinary charm. As long as you are willing to obey me obediently, I will I will spare your life."

"Bastard..." Fang Jinghui was furious. When he was about to rush up, he was caught by Wang Luomiao, and he fell backwards.She said calmly and calmly: "You are also the pride of heaven, and it's okay to follow you. However, our Wang family has never offended your Cao family, so why do you want to do something to us?"

"Luo Miao..." Fang Jinghui fell to the ground with a look of shock and grief.

"Interesting, interesting, are you trying to trick me?" Cao Bangyan laughed loudly, "However, since you little beauty is so knowledgeable, then I will let you be a fool. You, Mrs. Wang, offended Those who can’t afford to offend will be finished soon.”

"Who was offended?" Wang Luomiao frowned slightly, "Could it be that we have offended the 'Red-haired Dragon King' Nie Long by suppressing the pirates? Why is he so powerful that he can drive Mr. Cao?"

"Nie Long? Pooh, Nie Long is just a dog raised by our Cao family. He dares to drive me?" Cao Bangyan looked proud, and his eyes kept scanning Wang Luomiao. "You Little beauty, don't be too ignorant..."

"Sister-in-law, my mission has been completed, have you recorded it?" Wang Luomiao suddenly said to her back.

"It's been recorded." A clear and cold voice sounded, and suddenly there was an extra person on the ship's side deck, a woman who couldn't see her true face clearly while wearing a bamboo hat.

In her slender hand, she also held a strange prop the size of a disc.Anyone with a bit of knowledge will know that it is a very precious spiritual treasure, the "Tianji Photo Disk".

This item is extremely difficult to refine, and there is not a single craftsman in Daqian who can produce it.Only a certain weapon refining family of the legendary "Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty" can imitate the Tianji Photo Disk of the Shenwu Dynasty.

This item was a rare item in the Hanyue Immortal Dynasty, and it was even more expensive in the Dagan Kingdom, and no ordinary family could afford it.

Fifteen years ago, Wang Shouzhe became attached to it after seeing its magical effect.It took a lot of favors and money to get such a piece.No, it played a role at the critical moment.

"Who are you? That's the Tianji photo disk!" Cao Bangyan's face turned cold, and he said coldly, "You were just trying to trick me?"

Wang Luomiao curled her lips and said, "You idiot, have you only come to your senses now? With your intelligence, you actually want to deal with our Mrs. Wang... Who do you look down on?"

"You!" Cao Bangyan was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and laughed angrily, "Okay, okay, I admit that I was irritated by you. I will let you two..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Suddenly, a flash of water flashed in front of her eyes, and at some time, the woman in the bamboo hat had already approached her, lightly raised her bright wrist, and gave a light palm in the air.

"boom!"

Cao Bangyan felt as if his chest was hit by an ancient giant beast, his ribs cracked and shattered, and his body flew backwards like a cannonball of divine power. It took many feet before falling into the sea.

"This..." Fang Jinghui's pupils shrank sharply, the majestic Cao Clan's talent was blown away by someone!Although there is a suspicion of surprise, but, but that mysterious woman is too powerful, right?
"Hey~~" Wang Luomiao sneered, "What is Cao Bangyan, the arrogant Cao Bangyan, who thinks so braggingly, my lady thought he was so powerful."

"Sister-in-law is mighty, sister-in-law is domineering!"
