Chapter 11 Merchant Ships

After Lin Feng came out of Philip, he directly took Shui Rou and Locklan to the branch of the Pharmacist Guild in Golden Moon City. He wants to refine the physique potion, and he also needs to buy a batch of raw materials here, as for the alchemy tools or something, Kalido also gave him a set, and he is now lying in the space ring.

After purchasing, Lin Feng returned to the villa and instructed the little maid Shui Rou not to let others disturb him, and began his crazy journey of refining medicine.

For three whole days, in addition to eating and necessary rest and meditation, Lin Feng used all his magic power to prepare physique elixirs, and it was also with his precise magic control that he refined this batch of about one hundred and ten raw materials into potions, a full five hundred finished elixirs.

It was also because of Lin Feng's continuous high-intensity refining that the yield of the last batch of materials had decreased a lot. If he knew that Lin Feng was still slandering because of this, the other pharmacists would definitely scold him for not being satisfied, and you would still be dissatisfied with such a finished product rate?

Lin Feng walked out of the temporary alchemy room, and Shui Rou and Philip were waiting at the door early. Looking at Shui Rou's worried face, Lin Feng's heart couldn't help but soften, and stroked the top of her head in a strange way, messing up her hair, Shui Rou couldn't help but put away her expression, glanced at him, and then ran away.

Philip came to report to Lin Feng about the armed merchant ships this time. It turned out that the Envision Shipyard in Golden Moon City received a big order the year before last to build a large merchant ship for a marquis of the Orc Empire, which had just been completed this year, and unfortunately, that marquis died in the civil strife of the Orc Empire this year.

As a result, the new ship fell into the hands of the Envision Shipyard, which only paid a deposit of less than eight thousand gold coins, while the shipyard paid nearly forty thousand gold coins in advance. That's a lot of money, and Envision Shipyard is in danger of breaking the capital chain.

Lin Feng couldn't help but ask, "Aren't they looking for other buyers? There shouldn't be a shortage of sales for a brand-new merchant ship?"

Philip replied: "Yes, if it is a normal merchant ship, even if it is an elven-style merchant ship, they can still find a market, but fortunately, this is a merchant ship made by orc nobles." ”

Seeing Lin Feng's puzzled expression, Philip further explained: "The aesthetics of orcs are notoriously poor among foreign races, so the appearance of this merchant ship is really vicious and ugly in the eyes of us humans, and no human would be willing to drive such a ship to do business." ”

"Moreover, since this is a merchant ship customized for orcs, it is not only larger than the large merchant ships of ordinary humans as a whole, but the various facilities on board are mainly simple and clumsy, and if humans want to drive it, they need twice as many crew members. This will undoubtedly add a lot of costs, so it is unpopular in Golden Moon City. ”

When Lin Feng heard this, he subconsciously asked, "In other words, this ship is very big and sturdy?" As for aesthetics or something, our little baron has not yet developed the kind of vision of an old-fashioned nobleman.

"Of course it's strong, the orcs are known for their strength and strength, so the only advantage of that ship is that it is strong and durable, and the cargo hold has a large reserve, and the orcs are very edible", in the end, Philip did not forget to tease the orc's appetite.

Lin Feng calculated in his heart, in this way, if he took this merchant ship, modified it slightly, and added some weapons and equipment, it could be used as a warship. Well, Nanlin Island does need warships.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng said: "You also know, what I need is an armed merchant ship, you must know that pirates at sea are still very ferocious, listen to what you mean, this ship is a pure merchant ship, not equipped with artillery and other weapons?"

Philip replied: "Our empire is not allowed to export ships with artillery to foreign countries, and this armed merchant ship is also within the ban, so naturally it is not armed, but the gun emplacements on the ship are still reserved, and the orcs originally planned to return to China to install artillery." ”

Philip was afraid that Lin Feng would have any misunderstanding, so he hurriedly explained: "Because you have to be in a hurry, there is only one new big merchant ship launched in the various shipyards in the port city recently, and those second-hand armed merchant ships listed for sale do not meet your eighty percent new depreciation requirements. So, I'll report back to you first, and if you're not satisfied with the ship, I'll look for something else for you. ”

Lin Feng waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be nervous, and then asked, "What is the price quoted by the Envision Shipyard?

Philip said: "How is that possible? The ex-factory price of the contract they signed when they won this order was as high as 70,000 gold coins, and now that they have smashed it in their hands, it is estimated that they will be given a cost price, well, it is about 48,000 gold coins can be won." ”

"Of course, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can continue to negotiate with them," Philip squeezed his eyes and said a little playfully: "Anyway, now they are pressing such a large amount of money, and they are in a hurry." ”

Lin Feng said in his heart, "I'm also very anxious, the development of the territory urgently needs a large sailboat, besides, I said uncle, don't you sell cuteness in front of me, okay? You are not a soft girl like Shui Rou, this cute expression is really, miserable!"

Lin Feng finished slandering, and continued with a blank face: "I only have one request, that is, let them equip me with the vacant artillery and other weapons, as the field baron of the empire, I should have this qualification." ”

"In addition, if they still want to make a small profit, just hurry up for me, ten days," Lin Feng stretched out a finger, "As long as they complete all the modifications within ten days, I can also pay them another bonus, well, a bonus of five thousand gold coins." ”

Philip looked at Lin Feng speechlessly, this aristocratic world, I really don't understand. It just so happened that Philip came today, Lin Feng handed over the five hundred physique potions that he had just refined, and Philip hurriedly went back with the potion, he wanted to take advantage of the popularity of physique elixirs to hold a small special auction, so as to sweep away the recent bad luck.

"Well, Lin Feng's explanation should also be done quickly, especially the matter of this merchant ship, it seems that Baron Lin Feng is also in a hurry", Philip hummed a little song while leaving briskly.

Lin Feng also went out later, and Locklan also inquired about a candidate for captain in the past few days, and he also agreed to meet today.

"Clipper Jack" was Jackson Turner's nickname, and he was also a hero who rode the seas, making a name for himself with a single armed merchant ship financed by a viscount, and at his peak he was also the captain of a fleet of ten large merchant ships.
