Wutong froze for a moment, blinked his eyes, looked carefully, and was sure that it was the emblem of "Secret Shadow", that is to say, the hundreds of big ships that stretched out, all of them were "Secret Shadow"'s own merchant ships?

I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, the Secret Shadow fleet led by Uncle Butler was actually anchored in this port, and Wutong originally planned to find a way to contact Uncle Butler after landing.

But it's reasonable to think about it, Uncle Butler must have sailed in the direction of the Inheritance Strait with the fleet first, and after discovering that it was impossible to pass through the Inheritance Strait, he immediately turned back and temporarily docked at Storm Island, thus avoiding losses.

The monkey was anxious and Wutong planned to get off the boat immediately, but just now Master Akle asked them to wait for a while, but fortunately, after the boat was docked, Master Akle, who had lifted the light mask, immediately came over to find Wutong and them, and he was not responsible for the follow-up.

Wutong thought that Master Akle explained the situation, and Master Akle, who was also very surprised, quickly found the person in charge of the port with them, and then contacted the owner of the fleet through the person in charge of the port, that is, the uncle of the housekeeper.

When the surprised housekeeper uncle hurried over, the little Lori screamed in surprise and pounced, and was hugged by the housekeeper uncle with a smile, although they can meet in reality, but Wutong, the hand-shaking shopkeeper, doesn't care about anything, in order to operate and develop the secret shadow company, almost all rely on the uncle alone, and there is no time to go back to the Bauhinia Manor to get together with them.

Whether it's a dictatorship or a power-grabbing uncle, maybe he's had some bad experiences. At work, whether it is for the employees below or for himself, he is very strict. It's almost his office at the headquarters of the Secret Shadow Company, and he handles the guild affairs in the game when he goes online, and the company affairs in reality when he goes offline. The two ends of the busy are spinning.

This is fortunate because "Endless" has a strict health and anti-addiction system, and the sleep before going offline ensures the needs of the human body.

"Uncle! You're exaggerating a little too much, aren't you? How did you manage to get nearly 100 large armed merchant ships? ”

It seems that the uncle's development in [Lazar Confederacy] is no worse than that of Sycamore in Adele? As far as he knows, the cost of a medium-sized merchant ship is as high as nearly 10 million standard gold coins, and the cost of these large merchant ships is probably even higher!

"Your Excellency, this is no ordinary merchant ship! In terms of model, these merchant ships are standard 'Lazar Seawolf' seven-masted wing galleons. Equipped with foremast sails and backmast jibs, 55.3 blades long, 14.3 blades wide, three decks, speed 22.5 knots, displacement of 3,662 tons, and equipped with 'fang-type all-metal bow double ramming' and 'underwater hidden wave splitting spear'..."

Mage Akle, who was standing aside with a smile on his face, interjected, "This is the standard equipment of the pirate legions under the command of those pirate kingdom lords of the Lazar Confederacy. Although it is not as good as the main warships and flagships of the Pirate King, it is also a high-end product among the ships, and it is difficult to get it except for their insiders..."

Saying that, Master Akle also glanced at Uncle Butler meaningfully, the Linland family also has a huge commercial and transport fleet under its own name. However, their family's sea power has never been able to compete with the pirate kings in the Lazar Sea.

It is because the lords of those pirate kingdoms, in addition to the pirate legions that act as pirates to rob the ships that come and go, also have their own large commercial fleets, unless they pay protection money, high taxes, and accept the minimum profit price they set, they are not allowed to enter the sea, but their own commercial fleet is not subject to this restriction, the official license monopoly of the red fruit and the territorial commercial protection.

The Linland family has had many conflicts with the pirates of the Lazar Sea, and the [Lazar Sea Wolf] is not a military warship that can be easily obtained, so it is natural that Uncle Butler is suspected of being a high-ranking member of Lazar's pirates.

However, Master Akle didn't have any overreaction when he arrived, after all, the port could allow such an obvious [Lazar Sea Wolf] fleet to dock, it must have been verified identity, and he didn't need to worry about it, the pirate king of Lazar Sea, to say the least, was divided into hundreds of pirate forces, large and small, and there were dozens of pirate kings with the title of lord alone, not all Lazar pirates had enmity with their Linland family, right?

For these commercial families, there is no permanent hatred in the face of interests, and after mage Akle only tested the identity of the butler uncle, he brought the topic back to the ship: "Although I don't want to admit it, those pirates are indeed the best shipbuilders on the Kovarare continent!" ”

Sycamore gasped! He didn't know how much these [Lazar Seawolves] cost, but he knew very well the cost of the sailboats sold in some of Andelle's shipyards!

The most ordinary kind, an ocean-going three-masted sailing ship with a length of 33 blades, a width of 9 blades, a single deck, a speed of 8 knots, and a displacement of 600 tons, does not count the naked cost of various accessories, as high as 1 million gold coins!

Ma Note: In the financial system of "Endless", due to the existence of special financial institutions such as the Temple of Waukin, the issuance of currency is very large, the financial system is also very perfect, coupled with factors such as frequent commercial activities, so some of the monetary units in the text are relatively large.

If you find it difficult to understand, please refer to the ratio of 1 gold coin: 1 real coin (this exchange rate is used before prices rise or inflation.) ）

PS: The "game currency" in "Endless" is not linked to real currency, only adjusted according to the needs of players, if players need in-game currency and are willing to use real currency to buy game currency on the virtual trading platform, then the price of a gold coin can be as high as 1:1350, and as low as 1:1.

Because the article sets up the "causal demand" rule, so the reasonableness of the price please refer to reality, but don't link reality with virtuality, this itself is incomprehensible, money is hard to buy I am happy, put it ten years ago I don't believe that a game equipment can sell hundreds of thousands of soft sister coins, but lion is better than bear poop. Reality is more exaggerated than the virtual world.

Again: The [standard gold coins] in the article are not pure gold coins, but circulating currencies with gold content, so don't be surprised that there are so many gold coins in the "Endless" world. For details, please refer to "Endless Money", and the gold coin (pure gold coin) is the real gold coin.

Finally, P: The above unit of length is equivalent to the meter "blade", and the "yard" is equivalent to the ruler. Non-"Imperial code: 0.9144 meters", the source comes from the biblical story "Moses Crossing the Sea" (I remember it is), please verify it yourself, because the unit of "code" has been pulled for a long time, and it will not be explained.

There is no charge for a nonsense paragraph, the text below.

-

This data was still known to Sycamore when Lean Pig accidentally applied to him for the purchase of a ship for the Chamber of Commerce, and in comparison, the configuration of the [Lazar Sea Wolf] was simply luxurious. Wouldn't it cost tens of millions of gold coins to cost one?

You must know that the [Lazar Sea Wolf] can not only be used as an ocean-going merchant ship, but its original duty is to serve as the pirate king's hunting tool, and it is a real military warship!

After the housekeeper bought it, although it was converted into a civilian version of a merchant ship, the battleship is a warship after all, and the firepower of the civilian version is much stronger than that of a conventional armed merchant ship, so it is no wonder that it can safely drive from the Lazar Confederacy, which is a den of pirates, to Stormwind Island. I'm afraid that the sailors and sailors hired by the housekeeper are not good at stubble, and they are themselves old bandits who are mixed in the Lazar Sea!

What did Uncle do to the pirates of the Lazar Sea?

Wutong couldn't help but glance at the indifferent uncle in surprise, it seems that he has to ask the uncle about the development of the Lazar Confederacy afterwards, this huge fleet of nearly 100 [Lazar Sea Wolves], not to mention the chaotic Lazar Confederacy. Even in Storm Island, a place where the Linland family is the only one, it can be regarded as a super-large commercial fleet, not to mention a dozen ships on the top of a [Lazar Sea Wolf], how strong the strength is.

Although Uncle Butler returned with the ship, it was impossible for him to give up the foundation he had laid in the Lazar Confederacy, and he must have arranged for the staff of "Secret Shadow" to continue to plague those pirate kings, so that he could come back with confidence, that is to say, this [Lazar Sea Wolf] fleet was just a part of the belongings he had established in the Lazar Confederacy.

Perhaps because he understood the exclamation on Wutong's face, the uncle smiled and explained very indifferently: "It's nothing, it's just a 'economic lever' in Lazar." ”

Wutong couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, can you not downplay the "economic lever", which is something that I don't understand, but feels very powerful, like going to the supermarket and buying a carrot?

Considering Uncle's occupation in "Endless": Pastor Workin, Sycamore can roughly guess what terrible things Uncle has done in Lazar Confederacy, no wonder although Uncle is not by their side, but every once in a while through the remote access function of the Waujin Temple, they can always support a huge flow of funds to support their development in Adele.

This is also the reason why "Secret Shadow" seems extremely mysterious in the eyes of those super players, and they always wonder if there is a huge consortium behind "Secret Shadow".

Not to mention that he hadn't found it yet, Wutong saw that the uncle was no longer wearing the golden nouveau riche robe of the low-level Wojin priest, but wore a low-key and luxurious, elegant purple gold robe, looking at the Wojin Divine Emblem on his chest, this is the purple gold sacrificial robe second only to the bishopric-level clergy in the Wojin Sect!

This robe alone is worth a lot of money, right? It's made of pure purple gold wire! Isn't it too heavy for you to wear?

The promotion system of the Waujin Sect is different from other sects, and being able to wear such a purple and gold robe means that the uncle has crossed the [Bronze Priest], [Silver Priest], [Golden Priest], [Perkins Priest], [Silver Gold Priest], [Ogin Priest], [Holy Gold Priest], these seven priesthood levels, are directly promoted to the [Purple Gold High Priest] second only to the bishop, and in the future, he is able to independently lead a diocese [Platinum Bishop]!

What level is that lean pig guy who is also a priest in Waukin? Looks like he's just a [Golden Emblem Priest], right?

Unable to discuss them in detail in front of outsiders, Sycamore could only suppress his curiosity and intend to take Master Akle to Stormwind City. Meet with the high-ranking elders of the Linland family, and ask to cooperate with the Linland family to dock the Mystic Fleet under the name of the Linland Merchant Fleet. Under its protection, I told Uncle Steward about the situation through the Inheritance Strait and the Five Nations Lake.

The housekeeper uncle also glanced at Wutong in amazement, which made Wutong a little proud, although his ability to make money was not as strong as that of the demonic uncle. But during the uncle's absence, he was not idle, and he made "not much", but he managed to build a wide range of contacts among the aboriginal forces, which is something more valuable than cash.

Wutong has something to do with the Cannes family, and Uncle Butler has long known it clearly from the reports of Lin Linling and Lean Pig and others, and one of the main purposes of the reason why he rushed back from the Lazar Confederacy this time is not far away. is to see if there is a chance to break into the circle of these dragon pattern oligarchs, and use the power of the dragon pattern family to protect the still weak "Secret Shadow" to support their development.

However, the housekeeper uncle didn't expect that Wutong was not only connected to the Cannis family who mastered the [Creation of the Dragon Pattern], but now it was also related to the Lin Land family who mastered the [Storm Dragon Pattern], which made the uncle have to look at the irresponsible handshaker of the Wutong with a different eye, and it seems that he really can't limit his "-stirring stick" to the affairs of the guild management and development, but should throw him out to stir up the wind and rain. is the correct development route for "Secret Shadow"... Don't you see this guy dangling around, obviously he didn't do anything, but he laid a big piece of ground?

Although Uncle Butler has scourged the pirate kings of the Lazar Confederation a lot, he has not been able to get a foothold in the Lazar Confederation, and can only rely on the tiger skin of the Waujin Temple to develop under the fence. Thinking about it, Uncle Housekeeper suddenly felt that he was not worth it.

As a distinguished guest invited by the members of the dragon pattern, the treatment that Sycamore and his party can get is naturally different from that of ordinary players, due to the late hour, and it happens to be a long night once every three days, Sycamore They stayed in the port too late, and the next morning they were personally accompanied by Master Akle, and took a floating car dragged by two giant eagles to Stormwind City in the middle of Stormwind Island.

When they arrived in Stormwind City, it was obvious that the news had already arrived first, and the Linland family had already put on a grand welcome ceremony, after all, Wutong still had the title of Andel [Viscount] on his face, and the "big man" who was the real power lord of the obsidian realm, plus a [Purple Gold High Priest] of the Wujin Sect, which was worthy of the Linland family's extravagant pomp.

The huge welcoming team waiting to greet them surrounded them, escorting them to the headquarters of the Lin Land family, located in the Thundering Castle of Thundering Mountain in Stormwind City, Wutong was surprised to see that among the crowd in front of the castle gate, there were actually two acquaintances!

Yolana. Advance. Baroness Cannes and her butler Stark. Downey!

Sycamore curiously glanced at Baroness Yolana and Stark Butler, who were standing on the side smiling silently, and didn't say hello to them first, but looked at the female half-elf standing in the middle, Eslafashi. Advance. Lin Land, a female viscount, the current patriarch of the Lin Land family, a mid-level [Dragon Pattern Descendant]!

During an afternoon tea time with Master Akale on the Tabby Shell, Wutong learned a lot about the dragon pattern family from him, and knew that the appearance of the dragon pattern was a characteristic that there were no rules to follow, and there were dragon pattern members who stayed in the [Beginner Dragon Pattern] and maybe they couldn't advance to a higher rank even under a quilt, and there were also dragon pattern members who had awakened the high-level dragon pattern just after birth.

And Lady Eslafashi is obviously the kind of special member who has awakened the high-level dragon pattern since birth, although it is difficult for the half-elf to judge the age by appearance, but the youthful aura she exudes can be easily felt by the equally young guy Sycamore, which probably has something to do with the nature of opposites attracting.

The younger the age, the earlier the awakening of the dragon pattern of the family members, is often considered to be the purer of the dragon bloodline, and those who show the characteristics of the dragon pattern in the mother's womb, and the members who awaken the high-level dragon pattern as soon as they are born, within the dragon pattern family, are called [dragon pattern descendants], and are higher than the acquired awakening [primary dragon pattern], [intermediate dragon pattern], [high-level dragon pattern], [high-level dragon pattern], [super level dragon pattern] members of the noble existence.

Once such a family member is discovered, the Dragon Pattern family will often start to cultivate elites from its infancy, so that it can have the best external growth environment and awaken a stronger Dragon Pattern of higher rank as soon as possible.

Although there is no theoretical basis, and the resource tilt brought about by elite cultivation is even a little unfair to the vast majority of dragon pattern members, it has to be admitted that these [dragon pattern descendants] who are known as "geniuses" can often have talents that others do not have, and they are often able to obtain achievements that others can't match.

After all, they have excellent resource supply conditions and an elite education environment since they were young, so that the [Dragon Pattern Descendants] have gained more room for growth than other members who only awaken the Dragon Pattern at the age of dozens of years, coupled with their own high quality, the final results must be far beyond those ordinary Dragon Pattern members, which leads to the fact that the top level of the Dragon Pattern Family is almost all composed of this type of [Dragon Pattern Descendants] members.

Eslafashi and Yolana, the two young female dragon-pattern family leaders, made Wutong realize a problem, the ability of the middle-level [Dragon Pattern Descendant] is stronger than that of ordinary [High-level Dragon Pattern] members, but it is weaker than ordinary [Super Rank Dragon Pattern] members, although it is stronger than the ability of ordinary [Super Rank Dragon Pattern] family members, but compared to those old guys in the family who have stronger abilities, it is nothing, why do these Dragon Pattern families choose to let young people with little experience take charge of the family?

Could it be that the dragon pattern families have also reached a stage of replacement of old and new forces, otherwise, why would such a young girl be in charge of the family? Is this true for the Cannes family, and the same is true for the Linland family?

If it's unfortunate enough to be guessed by Sycamore, it's estimated that it's the hands and feet of the core consciousness god.,In order to cooperate with the player class that appears in this world.。

Politely saluted the patriarch of Eslafath, and Sycamore smiled and kissed Baroness Yolana, and now his little hands were becoming more and more proficient.

The difference between intimacy and alienation can be seen in etiquette, and this phenomenon makes the eyes of the old fellows standing behind Eslafashi flicker for a while, and there is a secret eye contact with each other.

Wutong, who was the subject of attention, didn't notice this, but the butler uncle standing behind him and the Stark butler standing behind Baroness Yolana were keenly aware of it.

The three parties carried out a hypocritical politeness without any nutritional value, nothing more than being young and promising, promising or something, and then Wutong explained his intention, and the patriarch of Eslafashi happily agreed to cooperate with the Linland family and Wutong, the upstart of Adele, under the hint of the elders behind him.

Adding fuel to the fire, how can there be a great benefit from burning a cold stove, and now Wutong, who is the upstart next to Andele's only orthodox heir, has this qualification to be burned by others.

One of the Elder Lynlands smirked and said, "It's good that we old fellows will handle these tedious affairs, Rafa, you young people need to socialize more, why don't you invite Your Excellency Viscount Obsidian and Miss Baron Yolana to visit our Thundering Castle?" ”

Eslafashi, who has the dual characteristics of a human girl and an elf girl, showed a beautiful smile on her delicate flower-like face, and nodded half-closed with starry eyes: "Okay, Great Elder, then please take more care of the cooperation between His Excellency Viscount Obsidian and our family." ”

The Great Elder nodded, politely signaled to Uncle Butler, the plenipotentiary representative of Wutong, and said to Stark, the Grand Butler of the Cannes family, "Ah! It just so happens that the affairs with the Cannes family have not been dealt with, Lord Stark, why don't we go and drink a cup of fruit honey tea with a few old guys, and sit down to discuss the cooperation project? ”

How do you look at it, it feels like an invitation to deliberately separate Sycamore, Yolana and the experienced housekeeper behind him, so that Sycamore and Yolana secretly glanced at each other, but it was not easy to refuse, so they could only obey the arrangement as the host pleased.
