After seeing off the iceberg and Tom got his heart out, the two went to a room for a one-on-one conversation.

"Thanks to your help this time, I would have been dead and wouldn't have been able to relay my message... I'll be your boatman. Tom said gratefully.

Believing in manhood, he has always been open to his benefactor. What's more, Fang Xing not only saved him, but also let him and the iceberg be able to meet above, and he knew that the plan was all arranged to help the iceberg clear their suspicions, so he was naturally grateful.

"Don't be so polite, you are also my shipwright now, isn't it normal to help you, not only for you, but also for me."

“… Well.. Sometimes I think you're not a child, and it's all pretended. ”

"Oh? How to say. Fang Xing stared at Tom curiously, although he was right, was it so obvious..? He's always felt good about himself in that regard.

"Don't you think a child is as familiar with the door as you, at least none of the children I know are so polite, I think you are growing in the wrong direction."

Fang Xing was stunned, looking in the wrong direction? Is it to blame him for thinking too much...

"But sometimes it's something that can't be helped, and the situation has to make me do it."

"I don't think so, a man should face everything with his head held high, and do what he sees as he likes."

Sounds good, Fang Xing spread his hands, "Maybe it will be done one day." "It's a good thing to do whatever you want, but it comes at a cost, and like he saved Tom this time, it's actually equivalent to offending the world government.

Maybe because the world government thought too much about it, it didn't move him, but that doesn't mean that there is no impact, at least he has been labeled as reckless, and there may be other places he ignores, and there are potential crises.

Tom didn't care about this place, people think differently, and he doesn't have the power to influence other people's thoughts. Just as the people of the Water City were surprised by the fact that they had built a ship for Roger, he did not regret doing it at all. Others can't change his mind, and he's naturally not prepared to change other people's minds.

"Here, what should I do next?"

Fang Xing thought for a moment, he hadn't thought that Tom would join before, and he didn't deliberately think about arranging any work for Tom.

"Since you said that you should be a shipwright, then you will be responsible for the repair and transformation of the warship." After finishing speaking, he added, "You can transform it at will, and if you have resources, you can go to Franklin to get it." ”

"Franklin?"

Fang Xing remembered that Tom didn't know Franklin yet, so he explained: "A businessman, now that he is very rich, you can slaughter at will, you don't have to be polite." ”

If Franklin was present, he would have shouted grievances, his idea of integrating the resources of the island's merchants was not yet executed, and at the same time, in many respects, it was the strong oppressive behavior of the navy, which made him fearful. Now in exchange for a sentence of casual slaughter.

Tom was not polite, and replied casually: "If there are materials, I am not ready to be polite, I will build good ships, and for me shipbuilding is the greatest pleasure." ”

Fang Xing was stunned, it can be imagined that there were suddenly many more ships in the base, Tom was the one who could lift the boat with his strength, and then he completed the installation of the ship pole in the air, and at this rate, a ship appeared in about a month.

"I didn't ask you to build a ship, forget it... Whatever you want. ”

Private shipbuilding at the naval base is nothing, and the explanation to the outside world is that with the increase in pirates, there is a need for standing ships. It's not an era of turmoil, so is it possible to be arrested in the name of turmoil? This is nothing more than nonsense.

But when it comes to shipbuilding, he originally wanted to build a ship, but after inexplicably going farther and farther on the naval road, this desire faded a lot, and if he had the opportunity later, it would be good to build a ship.

Seeing that Fang Xing didn't object, Tom smiled, if he didn't agree, he wouldn't force it, but if Fang Xing agreed, it would be a good result.

"Where can you build a ship? I can't wait, hahaha.." Tom said in that hearty tone.

Fang Xing didn't stay with him for long, so he arranged for someone to take Tom to the dock in the base to have a look.

After Tom left.

Fang Xing turned back to the office, and couldn't help but turn black in his head.

There are stacks of documents tens of centimeters high on his desk, no matter how fast he can process the work, but after all, he only has a pair of eyes, which can only scan the things that enter the eyes, and these papers still need to be turned over one by one, and they cannot be entered like a computer. You can imagine the days to come, just sit there and look through those documents and then answer.

How long has he been gone? It's been a long time, and I haven't been back since I went to Franklin, and it's been about three weeks, nearly a month.

Looking at this pile of documents, Fang Xing thought, should he leave these jobs behind and be a salted fish? However, the inexplicable sense of responsibility still made him choose to work silently. At the same time, he muttered: "Next time, let's see who has more documents, so let's arrange more things for them." ”

In the blink of an eye, many days of calm have passed.

At this time, the alarm sounded inside the navy, breaking the atmosphere.

A navyman rushed in the direction of Fang Xing's office, ignoring etiquette, knocked on the door and slammed it open, anxiously reporting the situation to the little man in front of him.

"An unknown group of pirates has appeared in our waters, and the cruising navy has chosen to meet them but has been wiped out."

Fang Xing did not choose to attack at the first time, but asked about the situation, "At what time and where was attacked, and explain the attack." ”

"Not long ago, around Pukki Island, when the Navy warship was cruising, according to the report, passing by Pukki saw an unknown ship, and a pirate flag in the shape of a white dove was hung on the ship,.... and then I heard the reporter suddenly ahh

Fang Xing was silent for a moment, although he felt that the matter was a little suspicious, judging from what he had just described, the other party had cut through the warship wrapped in steel with a single blow.

No one knows about the pirates of this strength, and they are also wearing pirate flags that have not appeared before.

The island of Kopuki is an important source of wood, and it can be said that without it, the shipbuilding industry in the water capital will come to a halt, and no matter what, we will not be able to sit idly by.

"Assemble the navy and warships and prepare to go."
