Hong Kong film: The Ni family tycoon, who kills people and then amasses an army.

Macau is a land of abundant wealth; opening a casino there is faster than robbing money. Even if their warships only stay for half a month, it would be enough to amass this enormous wealth. It's just absurd that that fool, Amazon, could die in Macau.

This cushy job wouldn't normally have gone to Sanchez, but now he's been given the opportunity, after all, Macau is a world-class casino.

Just as he was lost in thought, a violent explosion suddenly rang out.

"boom!"

Immediately afterwards, the ship tilted, and the soldiers on the deck fell to the ground in all directions.

The sudden turn of events caused Sanchez himself to fall onto the deck, his top hat dropping to the ground. He immediately roared in anger, "What happened?"

He screamed in panic. The sea had been calm and there hadn't been any waves. The sudden tilting of the deck terrified him, and the explosion wasn't just a single sound.

"Bang bang bang!"

As a series of sounds came, seawater poured into the cabin, and the bottom of the warship immediately started to leak. Before they could even react, the entire ship was sinking rapidly.

The soldiers in the command center shouted, "The warship is sinking! We're under attack! Someone has planted bombs on the hull!"

These soldiers weren't fools. Only bombs could have such power to suddenly destroy a warship. There were no other ships on the surface, so the only option was to use bombs to destroy the ship and its hull.

Upon hearing this, Sanchez shouted, "How could it be a bomb? Who can keep up with the speed of our warships?"

Even if their warships are moving slowly, they are still not something that ordinary ships can keep up with. Besides, they did not find anything unusual. Could it be that there was an internal traitor among them who blew up the ships?

"That's impossible," Sanchez immediately denied. If the warship sank, they would all die. How could bombs be transported to the warship silently when hundreds of eyes were watching?

Moreover, the warships arrived with great fanfare, showing no awareness of precautions, since there were no other ships around.

Sanchez jumped to his feet and shouted, "What is the extent of the damage to the ship?"

He could only hold onto the railing of the boat, which was tilting to the right and could capsize at any moment.

The soldier, pale-faced, swallowed hard: "It's over. The entire cabin is flooded. There's no way to salvage it. The warship will sink in five minutes."

None of them wanted to die at the hands of the fish; if things continued like this, they would be buried with the warship.

"Damn it, immediately contact the ships and helicopters in Haojiang to come to the rescue, and there are lifeboats too. Get everyone evacuated."

463

Sanchez knew there was no chance of saving the ships, so he immediately planned to escape, since even the best swimmers like his soldiers couldn't possibly survive.

It's quite a distance from the mainland; it's impossible to swim there. In the end, one would only die from exhaustion.

If he could find a lifeboat, he might be able to escape the warship.

"At the stern of the ship, there were only three."

"You guys get the situation under control."

After giving the order, Sanchez realized that the damage to the ship was beyond his control. To prevent any soldiers from fighting him for the lifeboats, he quickly ran over in the chaos.

A lifeboat can only hold a maximum of six people. They would never have imagined that a warship would have such a problem, unless it was under enemy attack, in which case they would prepare lifeboats.

But now it is peacetime, and Sanchez was careless and only prepared three lifeboats. However, Sanchez was overjoyed, thinking that the lifeboats would be enough to give him a chance to survive.

If they can contact headquarters, they might be able to be rescued. As for the unlucky ones on the warship, they have already been killed on the spot by bombs or swept away by the powerful water pressure, and they are doomed.

Sanchez was spared only because he was on deck; he and three or four close associates quickly boarded a lifeboat.

"Quickly, get off the warship."

Several trusted confidants nodded hastily, disregarding the lives of the remaining crew members on the warship, and took advantage of their panic to leave.

"boom!"

As Sanchez left the warship, there was another muffled thud, and the entire massive warship tilted to the right before crashing violently into the water.

Huge waves suddenly appeared on the once calm sea, accompanied by flames. Then, under the moonlight, the entire ship was swallowed by the ocean. That sudden movement would probably have made most of the crew faint and perish at sea.

Sanchez felt a chill run down his spine as he watched this scene. He never expected that his trip to Haojiang would be ruined like this. With no warships and most of his soldiers dead or wounded, how could he possibly suppress the bandits?

At this point, it would be good enough to just survive. Fortunately, there were some fluorescent panels and oars on the lifeboats. As long as they knew which way to go, they could get out of this damned place.

Sanchez glared fiercely towards the direction of the Haojiang River, determined to have more warships deployed once he survived.

Just then, a scream broke his reverie.

"General, underwater, there's something underwater."

Sanchez's eyes widened, and he looked up at the water. Through the glow stick, he saw an incredible sight: a half-human, half-fish monster was laughing at him from the bottom of the water.

"A mermaid? How is that possible?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the entire lifeboat was overturned. Sanchez felt a tremendous force on his body as a pair of large hands dragged him toward the deep sea.

No matter how much he struggled, he could only see the sea getting further and further away from him, and he had no chance to fight back. Soon he lost consciousness.

In less than half an hour, all the soldiers on Sanchez's warship had drowned, and there were still shipwrecks floating around. These mermaids would not be left alive either, as their identities could not be exposed, especially since they had a deal with the Ni family.

This is their first mission, and for survival, life and death are commonplace.

When the mermaid saw that there were no survivors, she turned and left, leaving behind only a pile of remains. No one would have guessed that the accident was caused by the mermaid.

……

The news came quickly; the Franco military leadership had received the warship's distress signal the previous night, and contact was lost within five minutes. They realized the seriousness of the situation.

They contacted the foreigners in Macau and immediately arranged for a helicopter to begin the rescue. The helicopter arrived at the scene of the accident that very evening, but who could have imagined that the warship had already been reduced to fragments scattered across the sea?

In addition, the poor visibility at night made the search and rescue operation difficult, and only a dozen or so bodies were recovered. However, judging from the situation at the scene, the entire team was wiped out.

Even if the higher-ups at the Francois wanted to hide this news, it wouldn't work; countless eyes were watching when the warships were deployed.

The report quickly appeared in newspapers in Macau, mainland China, and even internationally.

"The Franco-Portuguese warship sank in the waters near Haojiang. Admiral Sanchez has not yet been found. The mainland will also launch rescue efforts to help salvage the ship's wreckage."

However, when this news reached the ears of those who were interested, it was quite shocking. The warship was just about to arrive in Haojiang to suppress the robbers and, incidentally, to confront Ni Yongyao, but it sank.

To be honest, many people think it's a coincidence, but this coincidence is too coincidental.

He Xin also received the news, and his eyes were filled with shock. He had not expected the Ni family to have such great power. Ni Yongyao's previous statement that the warships could not reach Haojiang seemed to be true.

He never expected that the warship would be destroyed in an accident, with the entire fleet wiped out. Moreover, there were no signs of enemy attack at the scene, which has become a mystery.

He Xin was fortunate to have cooperated with the Ni family early on; otherwise, it wouldn't have been a problem for him to disappear quietly from Haojiang. Even the higher-ups at the Franco-Portuguese would probably not continue to target Haojiang now, and would instead investigate the accident involving the warship.

He Xin felt he should spend more time with Ni Yongyao, so he called his daughter, He Tian'er, over. However, he knew his daughter was too naive to reveal the truth.

"Tian'er, did you see the news report just now?"

He Tian'er nodded: "Dad, how could I not know? These foreigners were really unlucky. They were all wiped out. They probably won't dare to come to Macau again."

“I was worried that these bad guys would cause trouble for Mr. Ni.”

He Tian'er clenched her fists, her face full of relief. She knew that these foreigners would come to Macau to cause trouble for Ni Yongyao, and they couldn't wait for him to get into trouble.

He Xin shook his head. Was it really a surprise? Then he paused and his expression became serious: "Tian'er, after all, your old man here is friends with these foreigners. Don't say that in public. You should act more sad."

He Tian'er pretended to swallow her tongue: "I know, I know how to act, otherwise these foreigners will think we're gloating."

He Xin didn't want to attract hatred at this time: "By the way, aren't you very interested in Mr. Ni? Next time Mr. Ni comes to Haojiang, I will take the initiative to introduce you to him. It's normal for young people to take the initiative to make contact."

"Besides, I know your temper. If I keep stopping you, problems will arise sooner or later."

The Sanchez incident made He Xin realize the power behind the Ni family. If his daughter could be favored by the Ni family, the He family would gain another layer of strength. No wonder the Governor of Hong Kong Island was so eager to win over the Ni family.

He Tian'er's face lit up with surprise: "Dad, you finally agreed! Don't worry, I'll definitely make Mr. Ni fall in love with me."

He Tian'er was confident in her looks, and besides, she had been pampered and adored since childhood, without encountering many setbacks. She believed that it was easy for a woman to pursue a man, and she didn't believe she couldn't win over Mr. Ni.

He Xin was both amused and exasperated: "Then you should give it a try."

He Xin plans to prepare another family banquet and then contact Ni Yongyao to see if he can win over the Ni family.

……

In the Ni family villa, Ni Yongyao received the news immediately. A satisfied smile appeared on his face. It has to be said that the mermaid team was invincible in underwater combat, and a warship sank silently.

Even with the Ni family's advanced weaponry, it would still take considerable effort; it's impossible that the cause hasn't been determined. This serves as a deterrent to the Frankish Empire.

After that, the Ni family's attempt to acquire shares in Macau was smooth sailing. When the French and other foreigners boasted that warships were coming, they were smug and refused to cooperate.

Now that the warship has sunk to the bottom of the sea, it's time for them, the Galaxy Casino in Macau, to make their move.

Ni Yongyao picked up the phone and contacted Gao Jin. The call connected, and Gao Jin's respectful voice came from the other end:

"Mr. Ni, I never expected you could even take down a Frankish warship."

When Gao Jin received the news, he was shocked. The key was that not only had the warships been dealt with, but they had also made it impossible for anyone to testify against them. Even if Frank suspected them, there would be no evidence.

Macau is no longer the domain of foreigners. They can take this opportunity to acquire shares, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They can also get involved in other industries.

Ni Yongyao smiled and said, "Gao Jin, after that, you will acquire shares in casinos and other businesses in the three districts of Macau on a large scale, completely driving out the foreigners. We can get involved in these businesses."

Now that the pretense of civility has been broken, Ni Yongyao is not worried about the Frankish Empire finding out. Even if they did, what could they do? They are too far away to help. If they send a large number of warships over, the mainland side would not stand idly by without him having to take any action.

If Franco dares to continue sending warships, his mermaid squad will continue to attack, and will meet the same fate.

At present, the Frankish Empire can only bark and howl; in the end, Macau will return to the mainland.

Even if Ni Yongyao intervenes beforehand, the mainland will not only not be angry, but will even help, since this can be considered as washing away the shame.

Gao Jin nodded: "Mr. Ni, I had the same idea. Now is the best time to expand the influence of the three district casinos. Secondly, our Galaxy Casino also plans to catch the robbers who robbed the bank before and spread the news."

Most of the foreigners have been wiped out and have lost their power in Macau. Now is the time to attract a large number of tourists back to Macau and at the same time make their Galaxy Casino famous.
