Chapter 2624
He screamed, "Help! Help! I... I won't do it again! It's broken! It's broken!"
Qiao Liancheng gave him a cold look, snorted and said, "You'll answer whatever I ask you. If you don't want to die, you'd better be honest."
"Otherwise, I'll just kill you and throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
The young man nodded hastily; if this were inland, he wouldn't be afraid of such a threat.
They say they'd just kill him and bury him on the spot? How could that be possible?
These days, keeping secrets isn't so easy.
Even if you dig a hole and bury someone, maybe a rainstorm or a mudslide will expose them.
But it's a different story at the beach.
This boundless sea, after killing someone, would tie a stone to their body and throw them directly into the sea, so that no one would know.
Even if it is discovered many years later, it will basically not reveal anything, since there are countless skeletons at the bottom of the sea.
Seeing that he had given in, Qiao Liancheng didn't try to scare him any further.
He then asked him, "Do you know anything about Alcatraz?"
The young man looked up at Qiao Liancheng in surprise and asked, "Of course I know about Devil's Island. How many people in this port don't know it?"
"But the question is, who dares to say it?"
Qiao Liancheng paused for a moment and said, "If you can tell me, I won't bother you. Otherwise, believe me, I'll kill you and feed you to the fish."
The young man said angrily, "Even if you feed me to the fish this time, I won't tell. Otherwise, the Tang family won't let me off the hook."
Qiao Liancheng said, "Don't worry, the Tang family won't be able to keep up this for long."
"Besides, you only told me. If I don't tell anyone else, how could the Tang family possibly find out?"
"I only want to go to that island to rescue people."
"The young man was deeply moved upon hearing this; he would never admit to coveting the bounty offered by Qiao Liancheng."
"Now that the money was in place, he had nothing to hide and told everyone he knew."
"He explained in great detail how to find Alcatraz, but he didn't say how to get to the island because he didn't know either."
"If any fisherman knew how to get to the island, the Tang family wouldn't have needed to manage Devil's Island in such a way."
Undeterred, Qiao Liancheng asked, "Shouldn't there be supplies and resupply stations on the island?"
That island isn't very big to begin with, and there are quite a few people on it who need to eat and drink, so resources are definitely insufficient.
As far as he knew, the island didn't have much land, and it was divided into four main areas: east, west, south, and north. Almost all the arable land had been used for building houses. So where was there any space left for farming?
What will the people on the island eat if they don't grow crops?
We can't eat fish from the sea and drink seawater every day.
Upon hearing this, the young man gave Qiao Liancheng a thumbs-up: "You're really smart. That's right, we're the ones transporting all the supplies to that island."
"However, we can't transport all the ships to the island. They all stop around here and wait for them to come and pick us up."
"After getting the ship in, unload the cargo and then get it out."
"We don't know exactly how they got the boat to the island."
Qiao Liancheng's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this; wasn't this the solution?
So he said, "I'll give you another sum of money, enough for your next life, as long as you can find a way to get me on that supply ship. You don't need to worry about anything else."
The young man was clearly reluctant, but looking at the stacks of money, he couldn't resist the temptation.
These days, who would turn down money?
Even if they're afraid of the Tang family here, they can just go somewhere where the Tang family isn't.
Besides, if an ordinary person like him changes his name, most people won't be able to find him.
So he readily agreed.
Qiao Liancheng was overjoyed upon seeing this and quickly turned around to make arrangements.
He brought out the twelve zodiac animals again this time, but he was worried because if he wanted to flatten the island, he would need powerful firepower.
Otherwise, two fists can't fight four hands; these are just ordinary mortals, and a few bullets from them would wipe them out.
However, if the entire island is to be destroyed, a large amount of weapons and ammunition will be needed.
The problem is, how do we get these things to the island?
Qiao Liancheng returned to his residence with a heavy heart, only to be surprised to find Yuan Xiaohua there.
He hurriedly went to greet her and said, "What brings you here?"
"Have all the issues in the mountainous areas been resolved?"
Yuan Xiaohua said with a dark face, "Why is it that the first thing you all ask me when you see me is how things are going in the mountains?"
"That's not something I can solve!"
"There's no point in me just squatting there. We've already brought in foreign experts who are studying the composition of those poison gas bombs. We're trying to see if we can find a way to neutralize and degrade them."
The mere mention of this made Yuan Xiaohua grit her teeth in hatred.
If she could, she really wanted to grind the bones of those who built this base to dust.
After a slight pause, Yuan Xiaohua said, "I've come to see you this time."
Qiao Liancheng asked her, puzzled, "Just tell me what it is!"
Yuan Xiaohua said, "As far as I know, there are many deliverymen on that island."
Qiao Liancheng asked in astonishment, "What do you mean by 'courier'?"
Yuan Xiaohua said, "Many of the people on the island are wealthy. They committed crimes outside and embezzled all their assets."
"Then hide on an island to avoid being tracked down and fined."
"They might even arrest them and execute them."
"These people have money but nowhere to spend it. How much worth buying and selling can there be on an island?"
"So someone invented this business."
"I heard that a steak usually costs between 30 and 50 yuan on land, but if you send it to that island, you'll get an extra zero."
"For some special foods, we might add two zeros."
"Part of the money was taken by the courier, and part went to the island owner, Qiao Liancheng."
This must be the deliveryman Jiang Wan mentioned in her novel who was destined to be a deliveryman.
Yuan Xiaohua said, "Originally, we couldn't connect with the inside information on that island."
"We made some contact in the last two days. A deliveryman left a code when he picked up a package, and we got some information about the island based on those codes."
Qiao Liancheng asked, "Then can we send the person up?"
Yuan Xiaohua said, "In principle, it is possible, as long as you disguise yourself as a courier delivering goods."
Qiao Liancheng frowned and remained silent.
How to disguise it?
He's 1.8 meters tall, you can't just cut him into eight pieces, stuff him into a box, and send him up.
Yuan Xiaohua said with a smile, "Now there really is an opportunity."
Qiao Liancheng looked at her, puzzled.
Yuan Xiaohua said, "Someone on the island issued an order to find someone."
As she spoke, she handed a piece of paper to Qiao Liancheng.
When Qiao Liancheng opened it, he was shocked by the requirements on it.
He asked in shock, "Doesn't this mean they're looking for me?"
