As early as a few days ago, Yang Jiuling and Yang Yurong had already returned to the Hongyun Immortal Kingdom.

"Fifth Courtyard." Barr muttered.

Today was the day he had agreed with the Eighteenth Princess, Irene, and this time he would go to Larkana with him.

Although Yang Jiuling and the others have not behaved abnormally these days, the Heaven and Earth Treasure is a heavy treasure, and he is not stupid enough to believe that the two who have been with him for more than a month will always keep secrets. Without the surveillance of the Void Floating, he wouldn't be at ease to let the two of them stay here.

So a few days ago.

Although the two were extremely reluctant, they were forcibly sent back by him.

"At the current pace, it will take about two months to complete the construction of the port, and if you add the installation of weapons systems and the stationing of personnel, it will take three months at the earliest." John looked ahead.

"Three months, it's been very fast." Barr nodded slightly.

Among the more than 2,000 people he summoned last time, there were also many high-level sub-professions, not only one high-level alchemist, but also several middle and high-level blacksmith talents, plus the alchemy laboratory had also been upgraded to level five, so that the construction of such a large port could be completed in three months.

"When the construction of the port is completed, maritime trade should also be on the agenda"

The goblin next to him said excitedly, "There are many types of goods in Sea Blue Town now, including Ice Flame Wolffish, Wine and Elemental Crystals, and several of them are scarce goods in the market. Whether it is the dwarf and elf kingdom that is transported to the western continent, or the human kingdom in the south, you can get a lot of benefits. ”

"Hmm." Barr nodded.

"Still."

"The most important thing in this maritime trade is the nautical charts." Noam continued, "I do have a copy of the Red Sea chart that I used to buy at a high price, but it is very rudimentary, and it only records a trade route to the Goblin Alliance's Golden City. In addition, the situation at sea is very complicated, and we also need to recruit experienced captains and seafarers. ”

"Yes, that's a big problem." Barr thought for a moment and said, "Although Old Don and Harris are both experienced captains, the situation at sea is very different from when they were long. ”

"There are also some troubles about the charts."

"The sea charts on the continent are basically in the hands of the coastal lords and the major chambers of commerce, this is their lifeblood, and it is not easy to get it from them." Barr continued.

"What your lord said is that these lords and profiteers are not a good thing." Noam also said.

"Lords and profiteers?" John stole a glance at Barr and Noem next to him.

"Hmm..."

Barr pondered for a moment and then said, "John, you should send more people to inquire during this time to see if there are any charts for sale in the market. If you find an experienced captain, don't care about the gold and go all out. ”

"Understood, sir." John said.

"More than two months ago, I bought the Mondoc Islands, two thousand nautical miles away, which could then be used as a transit point for maritime trade." Barr continued.

"Mondocque?" Noam hesitated, "I've heard of this place, and it's in a good location, but although these islands are numerous and close to each other, each island is not very large, and there are no bays suitable for large ships to dock. ”

"Why did you choose this place?"

"Hehe, there is no bay, so let's just build a bay and come out." Barr said with a smile, with Bart's earth elemental manipulation ability at this time, coupled with Pippen, it shouldn't be difficult to take the time to get a bay out. If it doesn't work out, he can still ask Brenda to make a move, and with Bart's face, it shouldn't be difficult.

"How much money and manpower does it take to build a bay?" Noam muttered to himself.

But Baal is the lord of Sea Blue, and he doesn't have much to say

"The buildings in the town have been upgraded, and the only thing left is the number of people to upgrade the level of the town, and the recruitment of homeless people cannot be relaxed." Barr looked at Lilith on the side and said, "Lilith, in the past few days, Bart and Pippen have led their troops to Red Rock Mountain to clear out monsters, and the safety of the territory will be entrusted to you." ”

"Don't worry, sir." Lilith said solemnly.

"Hmm." Baal nodded, "The empire should arrange for someone to come over in a few days to upgrade the small energy gathering pool, John, you arrange someone to receive it." ”

"Yes." John Dao.

More than half a month ago, Barr received 500,000 lord points transferred by Irene.

The efficiency of the small energy collection pool is too low, and now there are more and more magic energy machines in Hailan Town, and the armed port under construction is a large energy consumer, and the energy supply is very tight.

He originally wanted to buy a new energy harvesting device, but after carefully reading the information in the lord token, he found that the small energy harvesting pool in the original territory could also be upgraded on the basis of the original, and the price was much cheaper than buying a new one. After careful consideration, he spent 420,000 points and chose to upgrade the energy pool in the territory to a large one.

Unlike buying a new one directly,

It will take some time for the Imperial side to organize the equipment and personnel, but if you count the days, these days should be here too.

"I'm going to Larkana these days, and I'm going to have to worry more about the affairs in the territory." Barr looked at a few people.

"Don't worry, sir." A few people answered.

suddenly

Rumble...

A thunderous sound came from above the sea.

"Oh, here it is." Baal looked up and saw that a small battleship thirty or forty meters long was flying from the sky, the outside of the battleship was covered with magic patterns, and there was a purple gem-shaped emblem in front of the left, "The emblem of the Ona family, it seems that Erin's mother has a lot of influence in the family." ”

Battleships are not ordinary things, even the smallest ones are worth more than tens of millions of gold coins, and even those big families can't have too much. The fact that this eighteenth princess was able to call one ship directly shows that the Ona family attaches great importance to her.

Soon.

The battleship stopped on the coast.

Barr nodded at John and the others, and after a little leaning, he appeared on the deck of the battleship in an instant, looking at the lion-man girl in front of him and smiling, "Her Highness Erin has come early enough. ”

"This time I have to rely on Lord Bal to help me when I go to the Fifth Courtyard, but I don't dare to slack off in the slightest." Erin smiled and walked over. Today she did not wear armor, but changed into a red aristocratic dress, which was a little less heroic, but a little more feminine.

"Your Highness is too polite, just call me Baal."

Barr's eyes swept ahead.

There were more than a dozen figures standing behind Erin, including the old lion man and the royal guard soldiers she had encountered last time, and several others, who seemed to be professionals of the Ona family.

"Master." Baal's face moved, and he looked at the middle-aged lionman with a silver war bow behind Erin's left back.

Looking at the purple gem emblem on this person's chest, it should be a member of the Ona family, and this middle-aged lion man should also have the means to hide his aura, and he can't see the attribute information. However, this middle-aged lion man faintly made him feel a sense of threat, and it seemed that his strength was not weak.

As Baal looked over.

The middle-aged lion man on the opposite side also stared, but soon regained his composure.

"Barr, do you have anything else to attend to here. If not, we'll now set off for Blackstone City, where there are still three geniuses I've invited. Erin looked up at Baldau.

"Nope." Barr shook his head.

......

Call.

The battleship quickly rose into the air, rising higher and higher, until it reached several thousand meters before stopping. Then he turned around and flew in the direction of Blackstone City.

"Kara, Kara..."

On the deck, Barr leaned on the guardrail next to the battleship and looked around, occasionally throwing walnut-shaped fruits into his mouth.

This is a red breadfruit from the kingdom of Doran, it tastes a little like a walnut, but the skin is like hard chocolate, and it is edible like the pulp, and he liked to eat it in his previous life. Not long ago, I happened to buy some from a passing human caravan and took it with me.

Look around.

The battleship is surrounded by a sea of white clouds, and from time to time a few birds pass by, and the scenery is breathtaking, and people can't help but feel relaxed and happy.

Barr looked at his stats panel.

These days, apart from sleeping, he spends most of his time in the Blackstone Mountains, and his experience points are increasing at a terrifying rate. However, because of the cultivation of the art of controlling the fog, the level was only raised to level ninety-seven.

With the support of a large amount of experience, his fog control technique has also been cultivated to the peak of the fifth layer.

Finally, he gained the ability to fly in the sky. However, the flight speed is not fast, less than one percent of his movement speed, but it is not bad, after all, except for flying monsters and lord powerhouses, very few people have the ability to fly in the sky.

"Da-da-da-da." Voices came from the rear deck.

Barr turned his head and saw that it was the Eighteenth Princess, Irene.

"The lord is open, isn't he worried about this trip at all?" Erin walked up to Baal, "You know, the most dangerous thing in this fifth courtyard is not monsters, but people, and neither the Fifteenth Prince nor Randolph are easy characters to deal with. ”
