The Transaction of a Scion of an Eminent Family

The Yu family's second young master stared blankly at Gan Ning, looking as if he could not believe it.

Well, he really had not thought that far just now, but... You are a bandit chief, damn it! How did you become even more skilled than me, a true-blue scion of an eminent family, at this whole investment scheme of the eminent families?

Which one of us is the scion of an eminent family, you or me?

Aren't you ashamed to call yourself a river bandit!

After his surprise, the Yu family's second young master could not help falling into deep thought. They were only a few large ships. Even if they were large ships capable of sailing the sea, so what? They were merely inanimate objects. As long as the Yu family wanted to build them, they could continue making them at any time. They only required some labor and timber, and the Yu family was not lacking in those things.

The reason they did not have many ships was not that they could not build them, nor that they lacked the time. It was simply unnecessary. They only used them to travel around nearby areas and transport some supplies. Seven or eight ships were enough for ten or twenty years with regular repairs. The one that had just been robbed was even older than he was. Moreover, this sort of thing did not fear age. As long as it was properly maintained, it could continue to be used after careful upkeep—and would even grow better with time.

Then these ships would become bridges
