Lin Jue nodded and said, "What you said is very true, this is just the beginning. During this time, they must be pulling you to discuss the return of the cottage on Guishan Island. This matter is what they care about the most, you can neither compromise too quickly nor without compromise on this matter, in short, grasp a degree, and focus on procrastination. Negotiate slowly, stall for time. โ€

Gao Muqing said: "I understand. But what worries me the most is that they gave 15 days, and can you guarantee that within 15 days, this year's hurricane will come? If the hurricane doesn't come, the Ning Navy won't attack, and when the time comes, Hai Dongqing will kill you. I can't delay any longer, so what's the matter? โ€

Lin Jue frowned and thought for a while: "I did a survey when I came, and judging from the dossier records of hurricanes in the past twenty or thirty years recorded by the Hangzhou government, the hurricanes in Hangzhou came for the first time in early June. Hai Dongqing gave us fifteen days, just around the beginning of June. If there is no major change, God should blow the hurricane on time. However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and no one can say for sure, so if you come early, it will be a big trouble. โ€

"yes, I'm just saying, how can God do things accurately?" Gao Muqing frowned and said.

Lin Jue laughed softly: "We can only resign ourselves to fate in this matter, and we don't have to worry about it." It's about being prepared. In the past ten days, our task is very tight, to find out the situation of the bandit garrison on the island, the distribution of fortifications, and the distribution of the places where we landed on the island. And also prepare for the worst and find a way to get out. If things change, we can at least run for our lives. Under their watchful eye, it is not easy to do these things well. But now that we've gotten there, we're going to do our best. โ€

Gao Muqing nodded and said, "Yes, do your best, don't relax." What do you say, I'll do. โ€

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Okay." Now it's time for you to go out, after that they will rebel and seduce our men, and you can't stay with me too long and talk too much, lest there be any accidents. You can't tell everyone about the plan until the last minute, but be careful everywhere. โ€

Gao Muqing nodded, turned around and walked out. Lin Jue called out in a low voice: "Mu Qing! โ€

Gao Muqing turned around and said, "What? โ€

Lin Jue said softly, "Thank you." If we can get out of trouble, if Lord Yan is true to his word, you can leave the cottage. When the time comes, I will take you to the West Lake, go to see the big plays, go to eat delicious food, you have not experienced before, I will make up for you. โ€

Gao Muqing smiled and said, "You have to be a talker." With that, he walked out of the door with light steps.

In the hall of the Righteous Hall, all the leaders have dispersed. The hall lit by the flames of the oil pot was empty, but it was not empty. Hai Dongqing and Xu Xing sat at the end of the empty rows of seats, stretching their necks and talking quietly.

"Island master, do you think there is something wrong with this tall village master? Brother felt that she and Lin Jue were a little weird, and always felt that something seemed wrong. โ€

"Brother, you're just suspicious. But your caution is not a bad thing, and many things have proven your caution right before. But you don't have to worry so much about it. Now that they're under our control, what's there to worry about? If there's anything wrong, we'll kill them all, and they won't be able to play in our territory. โ€

"What the owner of the island said is very true, and the brother doesn't want to give birth to branches. In terms of major events, although the number of troops on Guishan Island is small, it is the force we need the most. Their position and strength are a great help to us. If we want to counterattack the inland and take Hangzhou to gain a firm foothold, we must need the strong assistance of the Guishan Island cottage. So, in terms of the big picture, it's best that everything goes smoothly and doesn't go wrong. โ€

"That's nature. If not, do you think I'd be so polite to her today? I can't wait to kill that Lin Jue in front of me and avenge Jin Gui. If it weren't for the sake of the overall situation, how could I allow him to live another half a month. Hehe, Gao Muqing's mother-in-law is also interesting, this is called being both a bitch and a saint. not only wants to dedicate Lin Jue to Lao Tzu, but also to ensure that he will not die for more than ten days. Don't you know, these ten days are not a kind of torment for the person surnamed Lin? Knowing that he is going to die, counting down the days day by day, can it be better? Hahaha, that's fine, it's not bad to let this kid suffer like this first. โ€

"The island master, although the words are good, but the brother always thinks that there is something famous in this. One of the biggest suspicions is that when they booby-trapped Jin Gui, they designed a fake marriage, how could this Gao Muqing really like the surname Lin as she said? Mo is not deliberately delaying time, what is the purpose to be achieved? โ€

"Hahaha. Dude, you've been too careful. You don't want to think about what this place is. In the vast sea, among the lair of nearly 40,000 of our brothers. To put it mildly, people say that the Longtan Tiger's Den is dangerous, and we are a hundred times more powerful than the Longtan Tiger's Den. Except for God, who dares to mess around on Peach Blossom Island? Gao Muqing has no brains? What's the use of her more than 100 people? The court has nothing to do with us, and she doesn't dare to get close to our territory for half a step, and she wants to make tricks, which is tantamount to killing herself. If it weren't for the fear that the gang that angered Guishan Island would not cooperate, I would have immediately cut off Gao Muqing's head, what else would I talk to her? โ€

"The owner of the island said the same, maybe I was too cautious. However, I still have a suggestion, we must keep a close watch on them, and we must also strengthen the vigilance on the outer islands, especially from Hangzhou. Why hasn't that person from the Lin family sent the news yet? He should have news about this, is this dog going to pretend to be deaf and dumb? โ€

"Brother, be patient, the news should be delivered soon. That kid from the Lin family has been very well-behaved in recent years, and he has also provided a lot of useful information. Let's not force him too hard, after all, he is also a person with a head and a face, and his identity must be kept secret. It's not easy to have such eyes and ears in the city, and you will need him for many things in the future, so don't force him too hard. โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

In the dark hall, the two of them muttered and whispered to each other, and it was a long time before they got up and left.

In the past few days, except for Gao Muqing, who was invited to negotiate, the rest of the people were confined to their residences and were not allowed to go out. Not only Lin Jue, but even a group of entourages from Guishan Island were all grounded here. A frustrated group of entourage almost clashed with the pirates because of this, but fortunately, they knew that the other side was outnumbered, and finally maintained restraint.

And Gao Muqing, Hai Dongqing put forward three requirements. One of them is to require Gao Muqing's Guishan Island cottage to be included in the system of pirates and accept Hai Dongqing's command and dispatch. The second is to require that the leading leaders in the Guishan Island cottage be designated or dispatched by the pirates, and the third is to ask Gao Muqing to allow the pirates to transfer 3,000 people to secretly enter the Guishan Island cottage.

The first article is nothing, the so-called acceptance of Hai Dongqing's command and dispatch was originally agreed in advance. But both sides actually understand that this so-called obedience to command is actually just an empty word. The two sides gathered thousands of miles away, even if Gao Muqing didn't obey Hai Dongqing's command, Hai Dongqing couldn't do anything about her.

But the second and third are different, and they are the bottom of the kettle. The leader of the cottage leader was dispatched or appointed by Hai Dongqing, which meant to control the cottage soldiers and horses to raise Gao Muqing. Although Hai Dongqing also said that the personnel in the inner village do not move, and the dispatched personnel will not seek the position of the owner of the village or the second village, and still obey Gao Muqing's orders, but in fact, this is a contradictory structure. The means by which a cottage owner controls the cottage is achieved by controlling the leader of the leader, and when the leaders in the cottage are all Hai Dongqing's people, Gao Muqing will obviously lose the control of the cottage.

What's more, there is a third one, after the three thousand pirates are stationed in the cottage on Guishan Island, they have formed a strength that is comparable to the original soldiers and horses of the cottage. In fact, the entire cottage is no longer Gao Muqing's world. As long as they want, these 3,000 people will overturn the cottage and leave Gao Muqing dead without a place to be buried.

Hai Dongqing is not a person who beats around the bush, these three requirements are rude and domineering, without any concealment. To make it clear is to tell Gao Muqing that the so-called submission is that I completely control your cottage, and there is no second way. The so-called union in the previous options has long been written off and no one has mentioned it again. Of course, as a consolation prize, Hai Dongqing also gave Gao Muqing the position of deputy island owner. This is Xu Xing's idea, there are only island owners and few island owners on Peach Blossom Island, and then there are two island owners, three island owners, and four island owners, but they have never had the title of deputy island master. In other words, this vice-owner is worthless. It's just an honorary title. It may seem like one person is below the others, but it doesn't really have any effect.

Gao Muqing actually didn't care about this, because this was a negotiation that delayed time, but Gao Muqing was very happy with such an impertinent request, because she could have a better excuse to delay.

Therefore, on the first day, Gao Muqing directly lifted the table and left, pretending to be angry and returning to her residence, no matter how Hai Dongqing sent someone to invite her, she would not go. The next day, Gao Muqing agreed to the first condition, promising that Guishan Island Cottage would officially become a member of the Peach Blossom Island Pirates, and since then it has become a stronghold of Peach Blossom Island in the interior. But on the second condition, Gao Muqing overturned the table and left. On the third day, Gao Muqing accepted part of the second condition on a limited basis, agreeing that some of the leading leaders would be designated and dispatched by Hai Dongqing, but requiring that these people must be approved by themselves. After entangled in this issue for a long time, Gao Muqing agreed that the leader of the outpost camp should be led by Hai Dongqing, but the soldiers and horses of the main village and the sentry horses as guards remained the same, and Hai Dongqing was not allowed to interfere.

Such a result has actually made Hai Dongqing and Xu Xing very satisfied. You must know that on Guishan Island, the outpost camp is the largest soldier and horse, with a number of 1,000 people, responsible for going out to fight and guarding the cottage and guarding the outer village. One of the main forces in their Guishan Island cottage, as long as they control the outpost camp, they will control nearly thirty percent of the troops in the Guishan Island cottage. This is already very satisfying. As long as you send capable people to serve as the leaders of the outpost battalion, and then replace all the big and small leaders one by one, the outpost camp will be in your own hands, and Gao Muqing's cottage will lose half of it.

Although Gao Muqing didn't flip the table today, achieving such a result obviously made her very unhappy. At the end of the day, she proposed to rest for two days to relax, and the rest of the negotiations will be discussed at a later date. Maybe he didn't want to provoke Gao Muqing too much, or maybe today's negotiations achieved major results, or maybe the third condition was too harsh, in order to avoid the collapse of the talks, it was necessary to ease the tense atmosphere. Therefore, Hai Dongqing agreed to Gao Muqing's request, and promised to personally accompany Gao Muqing to visit Peach Blossom Island tomorrow to see the grand occasion of the sea kingdom established by Hai Dongqing.
