Chapter 156: The Perfect Plan for the Ship

Hai Blog waved his hand and said, "Don't ask me how I am, tell me about you." ”

Apparently, the old man had heard that something had happened to Andre and their treasure hunt, and wanted to know more about their comfort.

"I heard that Andrew's ship was in an accident, and I thought I couldn't see you violent little girl.

What about your father? How's Andre's grumpy lad doing? ”

Listening to Hai Blog's words, Xia Daiti was slightly embarrassed.

From these words, Arka learned that Shadetti may have really been violent as a child, which made a deep impression on the old man.

Didn't you expect Andre to be a grumpy guy when he was young?

Xia Daiti replied, "The treasure hunt group has been destroyed, but my father is still safe, except for a broken arm. ”

"Did you have a broken arm...... Alas, the sea...... But it's good to be alive so that he can live here in peace. ”

"His contribution should be a regional bishop."

Hai Blog sighed a little, and said helplessly.

Then he suddenly thought of something, patted his head, looked at the two of them and said embarrassedly: "I seem to be off topic, that's how it is when I'm old, who is this young man?" ”

Hearing Hai Blog's words, Arka immediately stepped forward and reached out to shake him.

"Hello, my name is Arka, and I was a member of Andrei's treasure hunt."

"Oh, Alka, then this ship is ......"

Hearing this, Arka smiled and said, "This is my ship, and I would like to entrust your shipyard to help me repair it." ”

Hai Blog looked at the dilapidated ship, walked over with a cane, stretched out his rough hand, and touched the rotten and tattered hull above.

"This ship has been through a lot, and its entire body has been corroded by the dark elements."

Looking at the ship, Hai Blog turned his head and waved his hand, telling the ordinary craftsmen to retreat.

Then he boarded the ship with the craftsmen behind him, who looked like his apprentices, and let the two of them come up as well.

"It's safe here, you should know about your ship, she's a ghost ship."

Arka nodded, worthy of being a descendant of a shipbuilding family, and he could see it at a glance.

"She's supposed to be a little closer, can you ...... Well, I mean, can you help her with the last step? ”

The sea blog is somewhat cautiously worded, but the meaning is expressed out.

Arka nodded, he knew that what the sea blog was talking about was whether he had any treasures, and whether he could assist the ship in its final step and officially become a ghost ship.

After all, it is the master of the shipyard, and knowing this information should help in the restoration of the ship.

"Yes, yes, then there are many options."

Hai Blog is obviously relieved a lot.

Then the old man took the apprentices behind him and began to look around the whole ship, taking all kinds of magic tools here and there.

Arka and the others stood on the deck and watched them get busy.

The sea blogger was measuring and teaching the apprentices behind him.

The tone and tone of the curse did not look like an old man at all.

Those apprentices were even more scolded and bloody, and they could only say yes again and again.

It was so busy until late at night that they finished it.

Hai Blog put away his measuring tools, and with the help of the apprentice behind him, he returned to the deck.

Looking at Arka and said, "For this ship, I have two plans, you can see which one is better." ”

"The first and most basic plan is that we will replace the entire ship in all aspects, keeping the core keel and repairing it according to the highest level of spell ship.

The advantage is that it is convenient and fast, and the materials spent are relatively cheap. ”

"How cheap is relatively cheap?" Arka couldn't help but ask curiously.

"2000 gold sails to 2500 gold sails or so, it's already very cheap. Because it is an order issued by the archbishop, there is no labor fee, only the most basic material cost. ”

An apprentice behind him added: "If you charge for labor, you have to double the price." ”

“……”

Hearing this, both Arka and Shadetti fell silent.

According to Arka Cause, an ordinary low-level spell ship would probably cost a few hundred gold sails.

For example, Andre's one, which is worth about 600~800 gold sails.

But after all, it is the property of the church, and it should also be made from this shipyard, and the price should not be the normal market price.

And that's just a medium spell ship.

I didn't expect the price difference between the spell ships to be so big.

But looking at the sea blog and the expressions of the apprentices behind him, it seems that it is really cheap.

2000 gold sails, what an astronomical number? And if you count the labor cost, it will have to be doubled.

In other words, if you buy it outside, you may need 4000 gold sails.

Maybe it's in short supply, after all, not all shipyards can build ships of this class.

In the world of the oceans, ships are strategic resources.

If you look at it this way, the top-of-the-line spell ship is definitely the kind of thing that money can't buy.

Arka couldn't help but turn his head to look at Shadetti.

What he wanted to know was how much they could sell for the treasures they had brought out in the Dark Realm.

Xia Daiti looked at his eyes, understood what he meant, stood on tiptoe and said in his ear: "It is roughly estimated that it can sell about 4,500 gold sails." ”

Hearing this, Arka's eyes widened.

Did they bring out so much treasure?

He has been frantically searching for treasure, but he has no specific understanding of the amount of treasure.

It turns out that he is already rich like this.

Turning his head, he asked without hesitation, "What about the second plan?" ”

Now there is money, deep pockets, and the best.

"The second plan is that we use special means to strengthen and smelt the parts of the entire ship that can be used and the parts where the enlightened soul is located into a stronger keel.

This requires special rituals and the help of the pastor of the church.

Then add materials to build a ship back to the top-of-the-line spellship specifications.

After all, the ship's forging techniques and spell styles were 600 years old, long behind the current era. The advantage of this is that it is more malleable, and it can be customized to more functions that suit you.

The disadvantage is that it is time-consuming and laborious and requires more money, which probably takes more than half a year to complete, and requires about 4,000 gold sails, pure material costs. ”

Not only is it bigger and better, but the price has also doubled.

The main ones are that the wealth does not belong to him alone, but to himself, Lucilia, Chardeti, and Pololo.

It's just that they account for the majority.

Turning his head to look at Xia Daiti.

Xia Daiti, who knew what he meant, said directly: "I'm fine." ”

"Me too!" Lucilia said, shaking her hand.

The talking doll caught the attention of several people, but they only cast curious glances.

As for Bororo, he is certainly fine.

But I can ask him again later, the three people present now have a combined wealth of 4,000 gold sails.

After thinking about them, there is still a year to go, and there is still a year to complete the task given by the archbishop.

But most of all, ask the Musical Boat itself.

Patted the mainmast.

"Good girl, which option do you choose?"

Two elegant tones came.

Obviously, she liked the second and wanted that feeling of refreshment.

Since the ships themselves have chosen the second option, then what is there to hesitate about.

"Okay! That's the second type! ”

Arka gritted his teeth and said vigorously, for fear that he would regret it.

Hai Blog smiled and nodded.

"No problem, then you can leave this ship here, you need to give you the features you want and the layout of the ship these days.

Then we will draw up the design and start manufacturing, and then deliver the goods after the payment is forged. ”

"Now you can go back, and when you've figured out your custom requirements, we'll sign the contract then."

Arka nodded.

Then he thought of something, and a stack of materials appeared in his hand and handed it to the sea blog in front of him.

"This is what we harvested from our previous voyage in the Dark Domain, and Xia Daiti said that it was related to your family."

Hearing this, Hai Blog took the information and looked at it.

A smile appeared on his face.

"Although the technology has fallen behind, it is a very important commemorative significance for our family, thank you."

"I will do my best to make your boat satisfied."

Arka nodded.

Then the three of them said goodbye and left, and returned to the villa along the road behind the shipyard.

On the way, Arka couldn't help but ask, "Can Xia Daiti really sell for so much money?" When the time comes, it will be embarrassing if you don't have enough money. ”

"Don't worry, you have to trust my vision and means, 4500 will only be more, not less."

Hearing Xia Daiti's confident words, Arka nodded reassuringly.

Chatting all the way back to the villa.

From a distance, I saw that the courtyard of the villa seemed to be very lively, and I could already hear Bobby's heroic laughter.

Several people opened the gate of the courtyard and walked in.

"You guys are back, why did it take so long? I can't wait for you anymore, so the barbecue party begins. ”

Jason said as he looked at the three of them, still holding a long string of meat skewers in his hand.

"It's disgusting that we didn't even wait for us to start." Arka said with a smile, and then hurriedly walked over.

Lucilia's doll on her shoulder turned back to its original shape and fell off, and Arka caught it and hung around her waist.

Moments like this are Lucilia's most hated moments, and she will go into the magic mirror to rest.

There is nothing good about Arka, either.

I could only shake my head helplessly.

Looking at Bororo, who was holding a large piece of barbecue meat and gnawing on it, he said: "Bororo, the treasures we obtained before may be spent on the manufacture of ships, are you willing?" ”

Hearing this, Bororo waved his hand casually: "It doesn't matter, you can decide." ”

As he spoke, he concentrated on nibbling on the barbecue in front of him, and said to the old Bobby next to him: "Although you old man has a weird temper, this barbecue technique is really not to mention that you have a hand." ”

"You damn fish-man, you have a vision."

As he spoke, Bobby raised the wooden wine glass in his hand and touched the barrel in Bororo's hand.

"To the food!"

"Hahahaha."

The temporary barbecue dinner dispelled the fatigue and grief in my heart.

Laughter, singing, and wine soothe the tired mind.

…………

It wasn't until noon that Arka rubbed his head and got up.

Fortunately, the physical fitness is good, otherwise I drank so much last night, and it would be very good to be able to get up today.

After washing up, I went to the living room.

The doll on my waist didn't know where it had gone early in the morning.

After a while, Jason and the others woke up and started chatting in the living room.

Bororo walked back from outside, and being a fishman or the sea was a little more suitable for him.

The room in the villa allowed him to rest, he was not used to it.

However, Julia doesn't seem to have such a problem, as long as there is a humidifier in Alca, she doesn't care very much.

Compared to a fish-man like Bororo, a merfolk seem to be more human-oriented.

At this time, Xia Daiti also walked down from the second floor, still holding the doll Lucilia in his hand.

I saw that everyone had arrived.

Arka clapped his hands and said, "Do you have any personal needs for the ships of the future?" I can say it now, and I'm going to sign the contract in a while. ”

Hearing this, everyone sat down with interest.

Listen to Arka give them a brief talk about their experience in the shipyard yesterday.

By the way, let them answer their respective requests.

The first is Bororo, who casually says: "There should be a room with access to the sea, and there should be a room for exercise, and it would be better if there was a sea tank." ”

Hearing Bororo's request, Arka recorded it directly, and as for whether he could complete such a question, he didn't care.

All they need to do is give their opinions.

Hearing some of Bororo's requests, it was a little outrageous, and everyone became bold.

"I want a library, and it's better if there are plants in the library, and even better if there are trees."

Lucilia climbed onto Alka's shoulder and sat on it.

Are all the trees planted?

But Alka still wrote it on paper, whatever, I can't talk about it if I can't talk about it.

"Then I want a cartography room, huh...... A large bathroom, preferably a sturdy treasure trove...... So be it. ”

Hearing Xia Daiti's request, Arka nodded, this request is much more reasonable.

Jason pondered for a long time before he said his request: "I want a shooting range where I can practice guns, a safe ammunition depot and a firearms room." ”

"Then I want a practice hall that won't disturb others, and then I want a personal room, and half of the room must be able to freely pour seawater."

For everyone's requests, Arka recorded them one by one on the paper, without a trace of deletion.

Then he added his own request at the end.

Extra free room, double artillery deck, fully automatic control of loading and firing.

It must have the function of automatically identifying attacks and turning on the shield when encountering attacks, and it must be able to dive and be strong enough.

…… Well, for a large refrigerated storage compartment.

And then there's a big captain's cabin, like a conference room.

Then there was a machine shop to be constructed according to the standards of carvers and casters.

Finally, some weird features were added.

Looking at the list in his hand, he nodded with satisfaction.

Xia Daiti watched curiously from the side the whole time.

After watching Arka finally finish writing, he couldn't help but look up at him with strange eyes.

She felt that even if Grandpa Hai had such a good temper, he might beat him up.

"Can these requirements really be met?" Xia Daiti finally couldn't help but ask.

"We just have to ask what can be achieved and what can't be achieved, and what can be achieved as best as possible, is something they need to worry about."

Alka's style is awe-inspiring.

Then he took this customized request to the shipyard.

Through the guidance of the service staff, I came to the office of the sea blog.

At this time, Hai Blog was writing something on a huge drawing, and Arka didn't bother, waiting quietly next to him.

Look at the composition on the drawing.

There should be improvements to the Musical Boat, or it can be seen from some clues.

Arka was not at all in a hurry to watch quietly from the side.

It wasn't until after a while that Hai Blog seemed to have completed a small stage of work, nodded in satisfaction, and looked up at Alka.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Arka shook his head: "It's out of the way, I'm also studying." ”

Hai Blog smiled and nodded, very polite child.

Then Arka walked up and gave him the advice slip in his hand.

Hai Bo took it with a smile, looking at the opinion above, the smile on his face changed from brilliant to smiling, then solidified, and finally stiffened.

Arka was next to him, the polite smile on his face remained the same.

Hai Blog, with a stiff expression, raised his head and looked at Arka in front of him.

He decided to retract his previous assessment, and the kid was not polite at all.

"Can Grandpa Hai Blog's requirements be met?" Arka directly changed to an intimate title.

"Do you think you can do it?" Hai Blog couldn't help but ask rhetorically.

Arka nodded: "After all, it is the best shipyard in the world, and I have full confidence." ”

"Huh."

Haybock shook his head helplessly, pulled Alka, and began to make trade-offs based on the advice he gave, and gave a plan for Erka's reference to see if he could reach an agreement.

It's an outrageous request, but as Arka says, it's one of the top shipyards in the world.

According to some of the comments given by the sea blog, Arka sometimes nods, sometimes shakes his head, and sometimes argues with him.

We talked from noon to dusk, and finally to night.

Hai Blog slapped the table out of breath.

"That's enough, that's it, it's decided, don't give me any more advice."

Seeing that the old man in front of him was panting and looking like he was about to hold his breath at any time, Arka hurriedly shut up.

ran over and smoothed the old man's back to ease him up.

"Sign this damn contract now, and come back in half a year!"

Arka smiled and signed the contract, and was then kicked out by the old man.

"Oh, why are you so angry, but it's worthy of being a shipyard of the church, it's really powerful."

According to the debate for most of the day, almost all of the above requirements were met, and Arka took the opportunity to make a few more comments.

It was perfect.
