Li Ran left the research building, he was in an extremely bad mood, there was no way, he originally thought that the construction device would be repaired soon, but now that it is good, he needs so many resources, he feels a kind of despair.

You know, he worked hard, and it took nearly half a year to save enough for the four resources of 30,000 each, and as for the transformation core, that was all invested in the repair of the construction device, and there were not many light patrol transformation cores used up in Pinghai.

Even so, such a huge resource still made Li Ran feel deep despair, but it was impossible to make him give up building the device.

"Forget it, it seems that I am just working hard. Li Ran sighed, then glanced at the research building, retracted his gaze, and walked towards the dock with slightly heavy steps.

Can it not be heavy, 100,000 resources, and 100,000 resources each, compared to those transformation cores, you can buy them with a little money, and if you have such a huge amount of resources, it is impossible for anyone to let Li Ran buy so much at one time.

You must know that a town guard mansion similar to the size of the Xiguang Town Guard Mansion, if the port is closed for a year, it will be possible to accumulate 100,000 resources in a year.

Li Ran only accumulated more than 30,000 resources in half a year, of course, some of them are the consumption of the ship's daily expeditions, sorties, and training, and some are invested in the process of ship development.

However, it can be seen that the development level of Li Ran's town guard mansion is actually average, after all, Li Ran refused to cooperate with those maritime merchants at the beginning and missed a development opportunity.

This time, after Li Ran returned from the Far Eastern Theater, he fully realized that no matter whether he was on the earth or in this world, it was difficult to move an inch without money, which was a truth that could not be broken.

Reality made Li Ran compromise, and he now opened the three islands, and Xiguang Island persuaded the shipwresses to close the port on the grounds that he had been assassinated.

Even though he knew that doing so would undoubtedly squander the advantages of Dawn Island's excellent deep-water port, there was another aspect based on the idea of secrecy.

The fact that I am a traverser must be kept secret no matter what.

There are also many anomalies on Twilight Island, and he doesn't want to be discovered.

"Forget it, there's no way around it. Li Ran put his hands behind his head, looking at the flowers and plants along the way that had been carefully trimmed by prestige, his mood changed again.

After all, he is the Admiral, and it is also his duty to consider these things.

The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and he can only take one step at a time.

Cheered up his spirits, Li Ran didn't want to see Helena and them with a sad face.

It took nearly ten minutes for Li Ran to walk to the Twilight Pier, and just in time to see Helena coming out of the repair dock, he stepped forward:

"How's it going?

"Well, except for the Omaha Break, everyone needs to go into the canal, everyone has gone to replenish resources, Admiral, I heard Yat-sen say, is the research department ......?"

"There is a little situation, don't talk about this, you come back this time, have you figured out the situation of the Four Seas Commercial Bank?" Li Ran didn't want to talk about work as soon as he came, but he knew Helena's character, so he saw that no one was there, and he chose to get straight to the point.

Helena didn't blame Li Ran for not understanding the amorous style, after all, last night's battle also made Helena break out in a cold sweat, she took out the report she had gone out to sort out this month from the ship's space, of course, she selected some of the most important information.

"In the past month, there have been several pieces of information about the Four Seas Commercial Bank, among which there is one place worth noting, that is, the headquarters of the Four Seas Commercial Bank in the Pacific Theater mortgaged all the real estate and transferred the assets to the Far Eastern Theater, but in the process, there was an accident, and the caravan escorting funds and materials disappeared on the death route, which led to the bankruptcy of the Four Seas Commercial Bank later. ”

"That incident from a month ago?"

"Regarding the assassination case, I don't think it has much to do with the Four Seas Trading Bank, it should be that someone wants to fall into the ground, the purpose is to divide the relationship between the Admiral and Bai Nuoyan. ”

"What do you say?" Li Ran took the report and looked at it briefly, then handed it back to Helena, signaling her to put it away first, and then looked at the deep-water port of Xiguang Wharf not far away, and a trace of depression flashed in his eyes.

Bai Nuoyan can be regarded as the first human friend she has met in this world, and she also provided the first assistance.

However, he thought of the madman's approach, and his heart couldn't calm down no matter what.

Even if he knew that his assassination had nothing to do with the Four Seas Commercial Bank, but the other party had already severed the relationship, there was no need for him to stick a cold face to his ass.

Helena obviously noticed Li Ran's cold reaction, she was stunned, but she didn't say much, after all, it was good for the admiral to be like this, and he was not affected by too many personal feelings, so he was a qualified admiral.

After all, Helena has been with Li Ran for a long time in a sense, and she knows Li Ran's character better than anyone else.

She didn't say much, all this was not something she could interfere with, after all, as the commander of the ship, she only needed to give the dive order.

Helena's reaction made Li Ran a little uneasy, of course, only a little uneasy, he withdrew his gaze from a distance, and then asked:

"You didn't get into any big trouble in this battle, did you?"

"No, by the way, Admiral, we rescued a strange shipwive, you won't be surprised, right?"

"It's okay, it's good to save people, by the way, what's the other party's name?"

"Kent, heavy cruiser, she said that there was a problem with the transmission of her line after the construction was completed, and she was teleported to the nearby sea without seeing the builder. ”

"Huh?" Li Ran frowned, it couldn't be such a coincidence, his face was a little strange:

"Are you sure?"

"Well, Kent said it to Prestige himself, and Prestige believes it, and I don't think the Admiral even doubts Prestige. ”

"Well, since the prestige is convinced, then it should be fine, by the way, where is she?"

"She's gone to the ditch with Omaha, and she'll be able to see you before lunch. ”

"Don't worry, it's more important to repair the canal, by the way, don't worry about resources, your safety is the first place, I don't want you to wronged yourself because of resources." ”

"Understood. Helena nodded, she knew that it was this point in Li Ran that made so many sisters feel at ease.

However, she suddenly remembered one thing:

"Admiral, there is one more thing, the deep sea that attacked us this time is not much different from usual, but the combat power of the Golden Striped Deep Sea is indeed very strong, and we have suffered a lot of losses. ”

"Still can't find out where the other party is coming from?"

"The intelligence is insufficient, and the deep sea that attacked us this time seems to want to retreat after the defeat, but we didn't want to leave hidden dangers at that time, so we were all annihilated, so we ......"

"It's okay, annihilation will be annihilated, put the investigation later, I have more important things to tell you now. ”

"More important matter? ”

"I want to make money, make a lot of money, maybe it's a bit cheesy to say, but Minato is in a little trouble right now, so I have to put in enough money to make money, otherwise, it will affect our future development. ”

Li Ran didn't twist it, after all, this matter may be implicit to outsiders, but his ship's mother is all family members, and if he is subtle, it will be worth the loss if he provokes a misunderstanding like the one with Lexington and them last time.

simply got straight to the point, and Li Ran was also ready to be despised by Helena.

But Helena only nodded:

"What does the Admiral want me to do? Gather information about those merchants? This is my job, and I have a duty to do it. ”

"You don't think my purpose is too cheesy?"

"No, money is necessary, capital and resources are necessary for the town guard to operate, and the consumption of materials also needs money, the admiral has refused the cooperation of maritime merchants before, and I still think that the admiral doesn't like us to mention making money. ”

"That, in fact, there is a reason for that, I also like money, but at that time I didn't trust outsiders, so I refused, and now I think about how I sometimes do things willfully. ”

Li Ran said, scratching his head a little embarrassed, he glanced at Helena a little embarrassed, and showed a somewhat helpless smile.

Helena looked at Li Ran's bloodshot eyes, she was a little distressed, and walked forward quickly, hugging her admiral tightly.

Helena's movements made Li Ran's body stiffen.

"Admiral, please rely on me and everyone in the future, the town guard mansion is your home, and it is also everyone's home, you definitely don't want the Admiral to take all the responsibilities alone, we can't guarantee anything, but I think everyone hopes that the Admiral can take care of his body. ”

"Uh, that, Helena, I see. Li Ran felt the amazing touch on Helena's body, he was a little uneasy, but then he was moved to dispel the charm in his heart, he just gently put his hand on her back, and then responded to her:

"I promise it's the last time I'll stay up late. ”
