The "Invisible Man" organization that the little old man had spent his whole life building and that he was proud of was said to be worthless by Ye Gucheng. He wanted to argue, but unfortunately he had no chance and could only die unwillingly.
Gongsun Lan's life was saved, but the injury was so serious that she might not be able to recover for a lifetime. Ye Gucheng would spend the rest of his life taking care of her.
Gongsun Lan was satisfied and felt that everything was worth it.
Ximen Chuixue was also seriously injured, but he will not have any problems after he recovers. He will still be the sword god who is arrogant in the world and is as white as snow.
It’s just that he will never duel with Ye Gucheng again. When he gave up killing Ye Gucheng, when Ye Gucheng ignored himself to save him, and when he gave up his own safety and let Lu Xiaofeng save Ye Gucheng, it was impossible for them to do anything again in their lives. .
When Ximen Chuixue left, neither of them had to say anything, but they knew that they were already friends.
Ye Gucheng's injuries were also serious, not just from his sword.
"Magical Sword Slash" is a sword technique he created after comprehending the evil art of "The Great Compassion of Yin and Yang" in his previous life. The counterattack force exerted with all his strength is also extraordinary. To kill a peerless hero like the little old man, he has to use all his strength to kill a peerless hero like the little old man. go.
Ye Gucheng was hiding on Feixian Island and had been thinking about how to deal with the relationship with the emperor. Normally, he was ungrateful and wanted to kill him, so it was natural for him to kill him.
But the identity of the emperor is no small matter. When Toyotomi Hideyoshi died, the whole Fuso was thrown into chaos. What about such a huge empire in the Central Plains?
Looking back and thinking about Jin Jiuling's words carefully, it is not completely unreasonable. It's not that Ye Gucheng forgave the emperor, but that everyone in his position might do the same thing. This is human nature, and selfishness doesn't need to be taught.
When a person is in such a high status, all the universal values in the world have no effect on him. He lives in another world entirely. Universal values are not meant to regulate him, they are used to regulate others. To hope that he will be moral is the most ridiculous thing in the world.
Ye Gucheng temporarily put aside his resentment towards the emperor, and then thought of the ninja who assassinated him.
The Fusang people couldn't be let go. Ye Gucheng didn't want to know what happened to Fusang now. These had nothing to do with him. He just wanted the Fusang people to be punished.
Ye Gucheng began to send his fleet north to harass the Fusang waters, and started vicious commercial competition with their merchant ships, which could be said to hurt each other.
This aroused dissatisfaction with his partner Huo Xiu. He only wanted to smuggle, not become a pirate. In order to compete viciously, Ye Gucheng did not hesitate to hurt others, and Huo Xiu also had to pay for it.
Ye Gucheng has always been generous with money, otherwise he would not have agreed to interfere in his business. But this kind of generosity seems too head-scratching at this time. He doesn't care about money so much that he will also suffer losses.
Huo Xiu had to board Feixian Island in person and asked Ye Gucheng: "City Lord, why do you do this?"
Ye Gucheng did not answer him directly, but instead asked: "You are so old, and you are still desperately trying to collect money. If you can't take it with you when you die, can't you do something beneficial to the country and the nation?"
Huo Xiu was furious. Was moral kidnapping tied to him?
Ye Gucheng really had never said such unpleasant words to him, but Huo Xiu was an immoral person as long as money was mentioned, and Ye Gucheng's words would never touch him. ….
Huo Xiu said: "The war between the two countries has ended. If you do this and start another war, will it benefit the country and the nation?"
"this……"
Ye Gucheng was defeated. He knew the history of the two countries and only wanted revenge, but Huo Xiu had no such idea.
Even the Japanese pirates who harassed the border back then were just a group of wage earners and illegal workers, and Huo Xiu didn't take them to heart at all.
Ye Gucheng said: "The war is not over, it has just begun. The world has been opened up. The only thing that will not stop in this world in the future is war. It depends on whether we can stay out of it."
Huo Xiu couldn't understand at all. The war with Fuso didn't happen on the mainland. His point of view was that he valued Mongolia more.
Huo Xiu didn't want to talk nonsense with Ye Gucheng, so he said directly: "Is the city lord planning to ignore my interests?"
Ye Gucheng was silent. He was rich, but he was shy about raising money. He was afraid of being criticized for his money, so he acted generously most of the time and didn't want to waste time talking about money.
Huo Xiu was not a Japanese, and even if he was not his friend, Ye Gucheng did not want to turn against him for money.
Ye Gucheng said: "I will compensate you for how much you lose."
Huo Xiu frowned. According to his way of doing things, Feixiandao couldn't afford to lose even if it was a big business. This was not a business attitude. He wanted to pursue long-term cooperation, not to squeeze Ye Gucheng dry.
Huo Xiu said: "War is a matter of the state. You are not a royal family or an official. Is it necessary to do this at the expense of your own family wealth?"
Ye Gucheng said leisurely: "It's not necessary for others, that's what I want to do to them."
Ye Gucheng really doesn't have enough money, and Huo Xiu doesn't know how to persuade him. It's all money!
Ye Gucheng said: "Well, if you are willing, I can give you the shipbuilding blueprints, and you can build a fleet yourself. I can also help you train sailors, and tell you all the business methods. You can do it yourself, how you want to do it. Just do whatever you want, how about it?”
Huo Xiu was really shocked. He was a businessman, so of course he knew the importance of business secrets. Ye Gucheng had already done so even if he did not hesitate to reveal business secrets. Where did he get such resentment?
But Huo Xiu is already very old. If he invests in this kind of infrastructure again, the investment will be huge and the returns will be late. When he sees the benefits, will he die too?
Huo Xiu left helplessly and angrily.
Ye Gucheng had no choice but to conclude that his relationship with Huo Xiu was over. He really had a tendency to become a loner.
After breaking up with the emperor, he no longer has any responsibility to the court, and a new generation replaces the old ones in the arena. He can just peacefully be a pirate harassing the Fuso Sea.
Ye Gucheng and Gongsun Lan strolled on the beach of Feixian Island.
Ye Gucheng had two healing artifacts, "One Yang Finger" and "Nine Yin Manual". Gongsun Lan's injury was stabilized, and he would spend the rest of his life slowly recuperating.
Gongsun Landao: "I gave the red shoes to Qimei."
Ye Gucheng said: "Jiang Qingxia? Can that little girl do it?"
Gongsun Landao: "If you treat her like a little girl, she has already become a famous chivalrous woman in the world."
Ye Gucheng laughed dumbly and said: "Yes, they are not too young. Don't you believe in keeping a low profile with your red shoes? How can you give them to a famous chivalrous woman?"
Gongsun Landao: "It's me who wants to keep a low profile, not 'Red Shoes.' As for Seventh Sister, she can do whatever she wants. Now that she has withdrawn, I won't bother her anymore."
Ye Gucheng asked: "You no longer have the ambitions you had back then?"
Gongsun Lan smiled and said: "'Red Shoes, with today's strength, I have realized my ambition. But after realizing it, it will be dull. I can't live like this all my life."
Ye Gucheng laughed, I've been here, I've seen it, I've conquered it, washed away the brilliance, and the plainness is the real thing.
