Chapter 211: The Team of the Great Voyage

William's words in the shipyard soon spread outside, and the shipwrights in the shipyard were all gearing up, even if they couldn't get the highest reward of 500 million Bailey, the bonus of 10 million Bailey was a lot, and it was not a one-time reward, if there were any groundbreaking ideas and technologies in the future, they could still get another reward.

Instead of going crazy about the high bounty like the other masters in the shipyard, Eric paid more attention to the other news that came out of the bounty:

Lord William, the consul, plans to send some young craftsmen to study in the capital of the seven waters, the sacred place in the hearts of the shipwrights.

Since William came to power, pirates have almost disappeared from the sea area where the country is located, and for two years, the people living in Momiji Village have almost forgotten that they are still in the era of pirates.

The Kingdom of Navia has almost become a peach blossom source in this troubled world, far away from the chaos of war and chaos, and the day is precarious.

But when it comes to the Great Voyage, this sea area, which is both a pirate cemetery and a pirate paradise, people will remember that the era they live in today is a veritable chaotic time, a chaotic period when pirates and criminals of all kinds emerge one after another.

Although the capital of the seven waters has a high status in the hearts of shipwrights, given that it is located on the great voyage, few of those shipwrights who have gained status and gradually become richer are willing to abandon their stable and peaceful lives to risk their lives to study in the "war zone" that makes people smell bad.

The only thing that made these old craftsmen who were not willing to take any more risks rejoice was that William was looking for a young shipwright this time, and he had little to do with them.

Eric, a young shipwright at the shipyard, finally decided to submit his application after a night of tossing and turning in bed.

Eric doesn't think he's a smart man, let alone a strange man with great ambitions, but he understands that the peace and stability of the Kingdom of Navia and Momiji Village was not achieved out of thin air. William and his subordinates worked hard.

Without the consuls and their subordinates to ensure the safety of this sea area by force, the people of Momiji Village would not be safer than the people living in other parts of the world, and having the opportunity to add a bargaining chip to their power means that the safe life of the people of Momiji Village and this country will also be guaranteed.

The more advanced and powerful the ships they are on, the safer the people of Momiji Village and the Kingdom of Navia will be.

Although he Eric is not a big man who can change the times, just a small boatwright, he might as well make a modest contribution to the hero who can really change this twisted era.

……

"You know why I'm looking for a young man, right?" William held a stack of self-recommendation letters, rarely showing a bit of smugness on his face, and shook it at Edmund before saying.

The young people were more energetic, and they were more deeply influenced by William's propaganda, and many young people in the shipyard, including Eric, took the initiative to recommend themselves when they heard the news that they were going to send people to the capital of the seven waters, and they were not afraid of the dangers of the great voyage.

"These young people not only know the hardships and hardships of the old era of pirates, but are also influenced by education and propaganda, and have ideals and passions," William smiled as he looked at the stack of not too thick self-recommendation letters, his expression was even happier than seeing all kinds of new weapons, "The future must be theirs." ”

When Edmund heard this, he glanced at William, and involuntarily complained: "What you said made me think that you were an old man of seventy or eighty years old, and you are only twenty-two years old this year." ”

William was stunned, and then laughed dumbly, indeed, in terms of biological age, he is only twenty-two years old this year, but his mental age is actually considered an old man.

William didn't continue to talk to Edmund on this topic, he saw that Edmund wanted to stop talking, so he said: "I know you also want to go to the Great Voyage, but I clearly tell you that the purpose of going to the Great Voyage this time is to go to the Capital of Seven Waters and escort the students there safely, and secondly, to hand over to Ah Jin and send him something, not to cause trouble, so I will send the ship out in the official name of the Kingdom Expedition, and I will not put up the pirate flag." ”

"So who's leading the team this time?" Edmund asked.

"Aramis." William said.

When Edmund heard this, his eyes rolled: "Aramis has so much work, and it is so important, and he is also responsible for the affairs of the Fifth Business Department, how can he have time to go to the Great Voyage?" It's better to let me go, you know my strength, after all, the great voyage is hidden by the dragon and the crouching tiger, the strength is very important, and I am also familiar with Ah Jin. ”

William looked up from the self-recommendation letter and glared at Edmund with some sternness: "Your work is not important?" Also, how many times have I said that don't talk about the five things in the business! ”

Edmund shrank his head, only quiet for a moment, and then said with a hippie smile: "William, you know me best, and you know my dreams, I have longed for adventure since I was a child, how can you not take me with you when we explore the great voyage for the first time?" ”

"You're too impulsive." William said noncommittally.

Edmund scratched his ears and cheeks, he really wanted to go to the Great Voyage so much that he couldn't help but search his stomach to find a reason to convince William, and just as he was thinking, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he suggested: "You can find a smart person to watch me and help me come up with ideas!" ”

"With your status in the country, how many 'smart people' are qualified to watch you?" William looked back at the self-recommendation letter again, "Sherlock's strength is too poor, I don't worry about him entering the Great Voyage, and the Chamber of Commerce and the Bank can't do without him, Danbiel's strength is enough, but there are many projects in the weapons laboratory, he usually can't wait to live in the laboratory, how can he have the leisure to leave his work in the laboratory and run to the Great Voyage?" ”

The corners of Edmund's mouth went up, and he smiled: "Why do you have to look for the two of them?" Have you forgotten Chloe? ”

Seeing that William's eyes finally left the self-recommendation letter again, Edmund crossed his fingers and continued: "The NSA is now on the right track, and leaving Chloe has not had much impact, and Chloe has never left since the establishment of this agency, nor has he made any great contributions, but he has always occupied such an important position, and some people are secretly afraid that there will be criticism." ”

William's eyes suddenly became very sharp, and Edmund was stared at by his gaze, and he had the illusion of tingling.

"You came up with these words yourself? Didn't anyone teach you to say? William leaned back in his chair, looked at Edmond, who was a little at a loss, and asked lightly.

Edmund hurriedly shook his head.

"Who said that Chloe has no credit, the fall of Redbeard, the matter of Alcatio, Clok has made a lot of effort." William said.

"But these credits are not visible, it is comparable to the credit of personally taking a great voyage and returning with honors, so that people have nothing to say?" Edmund said.

William squinted his eyes, his index finger unconsciously tapped on the wooden handrail, and the room became very quiet for a while, leaving only the "tuk-tuk" sound made by William's fingers and the handrail, Edmund didn't dare to continue when he saw this, knowing that he could only wait for William to make up his mind.

After a while, William took out a document from a drawer, corrected it with a pen, ticked off a few names, added some more names, and handed it to Edmund: "This is the list of this expedition, since you are leading the team, you can mention any opinions." ”
