Chapter 68: Preparing for War
The two brothers parted without saying a few words, and it could be seen that Raymond actually wanted to persuade his younger brother to turn back, after all, in his opinion, pirates were just a point of no return after all.
Maybe the same is true in the eyes of the pirates themselves, but wolves, after all, are still wolves.
Back in the Pirate City, Sorjes arrived at the shipyard without saying a word, and according to Will and Wibull Sr., the price paid for the Magic Diamond was the highest in the city.
The shipyard has one in the east, west, north and south of the pirate city, and Sojers didn't deliberately choose, so he chose the one that was closest to it. As soon as he entered the factory, he felt that he had arrived in another world, as if Chen Cheng had memorized it, where almost everything was made of metal, and only one worker put the refined material on a conveyor belt, and then sent the material to the workshop.
It was different from the outside, the sound of metal tools clashing, the roar of the furnace inside the workshop made it noisy, and the workers were busy, and Sojers even saw that several people with receptionist badges had joined the work.
No wonder the pirate city has always been so strong, even the workers have such a high enthusiasm for work, it is difficult to be weak!
"Jack! The workers here are all wearing earplugs, most of them are just ordinary people, if they don't wear earplugs, the noise here is too loud, it is easy to affect their hearing, and after a long time, they will even become deaf. Will whispered beside Sojes, there was no way, it was impossible to communicate normally in such a noisy environment.
Helpless, the two could only sit in place and wait, and in the process of waiting, Will patted Sojers on the shoulder and pointed in one direction, the latter was a little strange, glanced at the position he pointed out, and found that the speed of the conveyor belt was a little slow, and after a closer look, it was clear that the materials conveyed on it were actually magic diamonds!
Although there is only one magic diamond every twenty centimeters on the conveyor belt, this conveyor belt alone is more than hundreds of meters long, and it seems that it is transporting magic diamonds from another room to the workshop.
When will your own pirate group be able to achieve this level!
After a while, one of the reception staff finally noticed it, and he made a gesture with a few companions next to him, and after the companions met, they signaled that he could leave.
The receptionist came to the two of them, but he didn't speak, but he didn't know where to take out a sign with the following words written on it:
"It's too noisy, please follow me to the reception room. ”
Indeed, it is not easy to discuss anything in this environment, the two looked at each other, Sojes nodded, and the receptionist immediately led them to the reception room.
Entering the reception room, the receptionist closed the door, and all of a sudden, the outside noise disappeared as the door closed. Immediately afterwards, the receptionist also took out the earbuds from his ears, and then apologized: "Two gentlemen, don't blame, there are few guests here, and there is a shortage of staff, so the reception is late." ”
Neither Sorges nor Will are the kind of people who like to serve shelves, and they both said that they didn't care, and then, Sorges put the bag containing the magic diamond on the table and cut straight to the point.
"I heard from a friend that in addition to accepting orders for ordinary ships, magic ships and magic warships, the shipyard in Pirate City also has the business of acquiring magic diamonds, is there such a thing?"
The receptionist nodded, didn't hide anything, and said truthfully: "There is indeed such a thing, may I ask what is the approximate number of magic diamonds you sell?" "Ninety!" As he spoke, Sojes untied the bag, and the colorful magic diamonds in the bag surprised the receptionist a little, these are magic diamonds with attribute energy, which are only produced in the spar sea.
"Two, due to the different demand recently, the magic diamonds of different attributes also have different prices, among which the magic diamonds of the thunder attribute and the wind attribute are in the greatest demand, each of which is the price of one thousand one hundred and fifty gold coins, followed by the earth attribute, the price is one thousand one hundred and twenty, and the rest of the attributes are one thousand one hundred, can the two guests be satisfied with this price?"
Not to mention that they were not satisfied, these two people didn't know the price of the magic diamond, and they had no way to sell the goods, plus this price actually made them more tempted, so they didn't make a counteroffer, so they reached a deal.
After everyone was happy, Sorjes asked another question: "One more thing, can you find a way to build a batch of ships with the defense of ironclad ships but the speed of battleships in a short period of time......?"
The receptionist was a little embarrassed, in fact, Sorjes was not the first to ask this question, and with the strength of the pirate city's shipyard, it was still possible to build such a ship, even if it was too expensive.
It's just that the crux of the matter is that in the short period of time that Sojes said, the current order is almost full, even if Sojes is allowed to cut in line now, the manufacturing time alone will be nearly half a month, although this time is not long, but there are only 26 days left before the date of the battle that Raymond said, not to mention that even if they place an order now, they will be at the end.
Regrettably, he told Sojes such a fact, and the latter also felt a little disappointed, but asked a little reluctantly: "Then, what if the ship is modified on the original basis?" "This is okay, both the time and the cost will be reduced a lot, how many ships are there to be renovated?"
"There are two of them, both battleships, how long will it take?" Sogers was more pressed for time, and the receptionist, who saw his situation, did not talk nonsense, and replied truthfully: "If you want to renovate, it will take three days, and the cost will be five hundred gold coins each." "Deal!"
Without saying a word, Sorjes handed over the money directly to the receptionist, and informed the location of the boat, according to the receptionist, there will be a staff member to go to the designated place early tomorrow morning to renovate the ship.
Due to the large amount of gold coins, after completing the magic diamond transaction, 70,000 of the gold coins obtained came from the Pirate City's unique savings crystal card, and the remaining nearly 30,000 gold coins were paid in cash.
"Haha, get rich!" Looking at the gold coins in the storage room of the Xianglong, Ji Nevia rushed to the gold coin box, and Ren Ichdena couldn't pull it up, as if she had instantly turned into a wealth fan......
Looking at Genevia with a doting face, Sojes smiled and took out the savings crystal card in his arms, and said to himself in a seductive tone: "Oh, what should I do, I still have a savings crystal card worth 70,000 gold coins in my hand, who is it good for?"
"Give it to me!" Before Genevia could react, Will snatched the crystal card from Sojes' hand, although the movement was sudden but not fast, so Will, who snatched the crystal card from him, was stunned, why did this thing give the card to himself so easily.
But then, Will immediately knew why, and soon regretted his actions, because Genevia, who came back to his senses, looked at the crystal card that had been snatched by Will, and without saying a word, he kicked his crotch from behind, and suddenly, Will was so painful that his eyeballs were hanging out of his sockets.
"Who told you to rob it!" Ginevia put the crystal card that was not yet hot in Will's hand back into Sojes's hand, who looked at Will with a mocking look and smiled, "See, even if I let you rob it, you can't snatch it, and you have to return it to me in the end." ”
"Count you kid ruthless......" Will put his hands on his crotch and knelt on the ground, twitching...... Cervantes, who had witnessed the whole process, didn't pay attention to Will, and looking at his somewhat solemn expression, it was obvious that he didn't pay attention to them, but just sat aside and said:
"Jack, I think we'd better sell the Treading Wave and replace it with a battleship or buy another magic ship, with the scale of the next battle, ordinary brigs are simply not qualified to participate. ”
Hearing this, Sojes also nodded, but he didn't bother to do everything himself, so he ordered old Wibull and Bode, who were also in the storeroom: "You can deal with this matter, and you will buy a boat with the money later." The two agreed, and without any hesitation, they directly took out more than 5,000 gold coins, and then went out and called some sailors to transfer the ship's supplies.
Thinking of the battle in the near future, Genevia was no longer in the mood to frolic, and hugged Sojes from behind with some concern:
"Blue, I heard Brother Raymond say before, the War Scorpion Pirate Regiment got a B-class magic weapon ship from the Fiana Empire that is known for its speed, in this way, our advantage in the ship has shrunk, and it is difficult for the bow cannon of the Xianglong to aim at the high-speed ship, plus Nathan has reached the peak of the fifth order, and now if he urges the secret technique, he is no weaker than the sixth-order swordsman, can we still win against them with our strength alone?"
Gently holding the back of Genevia's somewhat cold hand, Sojes comforted softly: "We will win, no matter how strong Nathan is, he is only one person, with you and me, plus Will and Shuaisi, there is absolutely a certainty of victory against him as a swordsman who has not yet officially reached the sixth order." After speaking, he added another sentence in his heart.
As a wolf, how can you not beat a dog that has lost its wild nature?
