Chapter 98

"Are you here too?" An old man's voice came from behind us.

"What's wrong? Has our ship been calculated?"

"Okay!" The old man said with a notebook in his hand: "I have calculated, this The ship is equipped with a total of 750 slurry tanks, 600 gun rooms, 400 lounges, 40 double rooms, a large chart room, a combat command room, 16 damage control rooms, and 8 modified warehouses. Let me tell you about it. Come on. Because you have too much space left, I have merged the adjacent warehouses into 8 large cargo bays for the sake of saving materials. I also helped you set up a temporary prison that can hold 200 people, which is convenient for you to catch. Captive! There are also medical clinics, kitchens, canteens, weapons storage, vaults, and backup combat command rooms. The sails use composite sails, five mainmasts, and a total of 5 mainsails and 45 auxiliary sails. Because the keel cannot be demolished, So I helped you install the mid-to-type collision angle, which can crash into the enemy ship without preventing you from loading the bow. In addition, I designed three rotatable platforms in the bow to facilitate you to install the magic crystal cannon. I also do at the stern. I have prepared two rotating platforms for you. When the time comes, you decide which cannon you plan to install! Finally, I calculated the price for you. A total of 2.8 million crystal coins are needed. Seeing that you can make me complete such an outstanding one. For the sake of the work, I will give you a discount, 2.2 million will do!"

"2.2 million crystal coins?" We all yelled almost at the same time.

Rose began to count: "Purple Moon has 1 million, Eagle's 550,000, Ziyue donated another 50,000, a total of 1.6 million. It's still 600,000!"

" Sure enough, it is a sky-high price. I understand why other guilds can't build big ships!" Gold coin sighed.

"What size boat do you want to build?" Chuang Wang asked in surprise when he heard the price of our boat. "My Haiwei is already very big, it only used more than 500,000, and your ship actually costs 2.2 million! A ship is about to catch up with a fleet!"

I said very seriously. : "Bing is expensive, not expensive. We use the money to build a fleet to build a ship, and the future battle strength will definitely exceed a fleet!"

"I have no objection to this!" Chuang Wang nodded. "But, don't you have enough money?"

"There is a problem!" I nodded helplessly. "600,000 is missing!"

"I guess you are not enough. I think it took us a long time to accumulate the 500,000! By the way, your 2.2 million is the ship price or the total Price?"

"Ship price? Total price?" We looked back at the old man and waited for a reply.

The old man looked at us and said: "This is the price of the boat. The material and manual costs will be so much, and you have to figure out other things yourself! I can't help you buy it! "

"Do you mean that you need to spend money in addition to shipbuilding?" We looked at the old man.

"Of course! What I build is just a boat!" The old man began to wrench and point to help us count. "Your ship needs a sailor if you want to go out to sea! This must be hired by the Mariners Association. Different sailors are not the same price! The type of the slurry chamber seems to be cheaper, the gunner is slightly more expensive, and there are some doctors on it. Chefs and the like, of course you can also hire players! Also, you have to hire combat sailors if you want to fight. For example, long-range attacking NPCarcher and hand-to-hand combat sailors. Anyway, these all cost money. Also, the ship’s The artillery is also bought at the blacksmith shop that specializes in selling siege equipment. Different types of artillery have different firepower and prices. By the way, fire weapons should not be forgotten. Artillery without fire weapons and shells is a pile of scrap iron! In addition, the ship's bow image should also be bought. The item belongs to the magic item. You have to go to the Mage Association to buy it. Different Mage Associations sell it differently. You'd better go to a few more stores before you buy it. It's not cheap, and Not to return! By the way, you have to buy food. Although your players are not hungry, NPC sailors have to eat on time. They will betray when the hunger is full, and it’s not easy to do when the time comes!"

"Is there any more?" I was about to faint, and after calculating it this way, it was estimated that there was no more than 3 million that could not be taken!

"That's all for the time being!"

"That...!" Rose paused asked: "We don't have enough funds, can we owe it first?"

The old man changes his face as soon as he hears of being in arrears. "No, I can tell you that the thing has already been built. The money will be deducted directly from you. You must make up enough of the debt before it is built, or I can resell it!"

"Then How long are you going to build?"

The old man held out a finger and compared it. "One month? That's okay, it should be late." I nodded and said.

The old man shook his head.

I was surprised and said: "It won't be a year? Then you will finish the national war after you build it!"

"It's a day! I build things here no matter how big or small. , Delivery in one day! You can pick up the ship at noon tomorrow!"

"No! One day? Then how can we be in time!" I cried out in surprise. Setting this game for one day is indeed convenient for players, but we have no time to collect so much money! "Can't you give me a few days of grace?" I continued to show my horse skills.

With my super high charm points, I really moved the old man. "If you can help me turn this ship into the world's most well-known invincible battleship and advertise me, I can reduce the cost."

"Then what should we do? Can be reduced How much is it?"

"First you must let me type my shipyard’s name on the ship, which counts as an advertisement. Then you must sink more than the ship’s original cost within a week. The enemy’s ship. If you fail to complete it, you will be confiscated and fined! How about it?"

"It can be, but how much can you reduce us?"

"How many do you have?"

"1.6 million crystal coins!"

"I will take you 1.6 million crystal coins."

"Thank you so much It's!" I almost went up to kiss him excitedly, and the final 1.6 million of the 2.8 million ship was done! Earn it!

The old man interrupted me and said, "Don’t be too happy. You at least need to hire sailors. Without sailors, your boat won’t move at all!"

"Okay, we will find a way for this!" I turned around and asked Chuangwang, "Do you know where the Mariners Association is?"

"Of course, I just want to supplement the sailors. I just lost the battle. A lot of people! Come with me!"

"Okay, please lead the way!"

Just as he was about to leave, the old man stopped us again. "Don't go now! Tell me the name of the ship."

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Let’s call it Biling!"

After explaining the old man Over there, we followed Chuangwang out of the port and crossed half of the city, and finally saw a house with a lifebuoy hung at the door, and the professional sailor association was written on the door of the house. After entering, King Chuang pointed us a direction and went to half of his own business. We followed the direction he pointed to the room at the end of the corridor, pushed open the old wooden door and entered the room. This is a small living room, and an old man is sitting behind his desk.

I stepped forward and started to prepare for the negotiation. There is no way. Who told me to add such a high charm in the first place! "Hello, we need to hire sailors. I would like to ask what procedures are required for this employment."

"No procedures are required, it's very simple!" The old man looked at me and said politely: "You only Tell me the name and type of the ship, the name and level of the captain, and the number of types of sailors needed!"

"Our ship has not been built yet. It will be completed tomorrow. The name of the ship is Biling. . As for what does that type mean?"

"The type is to ask if you are a battleship, a fishing boat, or a yacht!"

"battleship!"

"Where is the captain?"

I looked back at the eagle and they wanted to ask for advice, but the eagle called out. "Purple Moon."

"Purple Moon! Alright. Your level?"

Since it has been reported, I will not refuse. "3Level 39."

"Which types of sailors do you need? How many of each type?"

"We need 3000 sailors, 1800 gun room sailors, and 300 operators. Sailors, 200 service sailors. We also need a set of necessary sailors, like doctors, chefs, and the like! There are also combat sailors, but I don’t know what combat sailors are. Can you tell me?"

"There are not many types of combat sailors. One is a light machete for hand-to-hand combat, the other is a heavy Swordsman for hand-to-hand combat, and there is also a short-range archer, a long-range archer, and a long-range rocket soldier. Finally, there is magician. The troops are divided into four elements: water, fire, Wind, and Thunder. Which one do you want?"

"How do you set the price for these people?"

"Do you buy or rent ?"

"Buy."

"One 50 crystal coins for the shaking and service sailor, 100 crystal coins for the gunner, 150 crystal coins for the sailing hand, doctors, chefs A total of 10,000 crystal coins are required. For combat sailors, one is 200 crystal coins for machete, one is for Swordsman, one is 500 crystal coins, for short archers is 200, one is for longbowmen, and 500 is for rocket soldiers. There is one for mage. The price is 1,000 crystal coins."

The rose pushed me in a low voice: "Husband, just the necessary sailing sailor needs 395,000 crystal coins! We have 400 sailor rest cabins, so count. We can still hire 2,700 combat sailors, but no matter which type of combat sailor we hire, we don’t have enough money!"

I politely said to the NPCold man: "Sorry, we have to discuss it. Decided." After I finished speaking, I quickly pulled everyone out and ran out. I rushed into the street with a sigh of relief before I took a long breath. "It scares me to death, it's so expensive!"

"It was originally so expensive! This thing was originally designed to be purchased between guilds, so it's like a few of us." gold coin nodded and said.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Yes! We should also form a guild!" Ziyue suggested.

Bingbing immediately said to me: "Don't bother to build it. Purple Moon himself has a guild, and he and Sister Rose just happened to take us in."

"Do you have a guild?" Ziyue didn't notice that I had a guild badge until now. "That's right, I want to join the club!"

"Ah? Mine is for fun, didn't you come in and drag you down!" I explained.

"What drags is not dragged, anyway, we never thought about what guild to enter, how convenient it is to enter you. In the future, you can directly talk in the guild channel when you find someone online, so you don’t need to team up. The line was cancelled, and it would be troublesome to reorganize it!" Ziyue actually recognized me!

"Good, good!" I was really embarrassed, but everyone had to take them all in. Now there are many people in my guild, and I am also the president of the "big" guild (actually only 12 people are added to me)! I thought smugly!

"What should I do now?" I asked everyone. "There is still a lot of money!"

"Why don't we first ask about the price of the artillery and the bow?" Bailing suggested. "I know how much is missing, so I have a goal!"

"Then let's ask first!"

I was inquiring all the way to the siege equipment shop, this is really It's hard to find, it's actually built on the edge of the city wall! The whole shop feels like a factory, with lots of semifinished products filled with cannons everywhere. We asked for a long time before we found the blacksmith's head standing in front of a big stove. "Hello, we want to buy the artillery for battleship. What style do you have here? What is the price?"

The blacksmith is shirtless, his sweat is shiny, and he shines in front of the fire. The voice is also very rough when speaking. "Come with me." He led us to a row of cannons that had nothing common with each other on the wall and said: "The worst is this, flat cannon, with a range of two kilometers, it can fire two rounds per minute, formidable The power is very bad and it often explodes."

"What is blast?"

"The shell did not go out and exploded in the barrel!"

"Oh! You go on!"

"The flat cannon has 1,000 crystal coins per gun. This is a cannon, with a range of 2.5 kilometers, and can fire 3 shells per minute. The formidable power is average, with 1200 crystals per gun. Coin. This is a heavy cannon with a range of 3 kilometers, a rate of fire of 4 rounds per minute, a larger formidable power, 1500 crystal coins. This is a chain gun, a range of 3 kilometers, a rate of fire of 6 rounds per minute, formidable power and heavy cannon Same, 1800 crystal coins per door. Finally, this is a breech-loaded fortress gun, with a range of 4 kilometers, a rate of fire of 6 rounds per minute, huge formidable power, 3000 crystal coins per door. Okay, that’s all, you decide slowly , Call me when you have chosen."

We also hurried out as soon as the blacksmith left. Rose, who studied economics, once again acted as an accountant and calculated: "If we want to have the firepower advantage, we need to buy that fortress gun. We need 600, and we need 1.8 million!"

"Oh my God! More than a ship Expensive!" I really can't stand the blow. "Money, money I want money!" I roared towards the sky!

"How much do you want?" A familiar and unfamiliar voice suddenly took the call and frightened me.

"Are you...? Feng Yin Misty!" I finally recognized it, isn't this the big money I bought my magic pet egg last time! "Why are you here?"

"This is where the branch of our guild is located. Recently I heard that they were beaten badly by Japanese pirates. Let me have a look!"

I Suddenly I became nervous, Feng Yin Miomaiao is Hong Yue's big brother. Since he is here, then Hong Yue won't...!

"Finally I found you!" It means Cao Cao Cao Cao is here! Hong Yue ran from the side. "Last time I was offline for a while and you slipped away, this time you can be caught by me!"

"hehe!" I couldn't laugh naturally! "Why are you here too?"

"The coastal branch of our Goddess League was also attacked. My brother and I came over to have a look. But you, come on, what are you doing here?" I haven't seen you in a few days. Hong Yue is still so fierce!

"We are here to fight pirates too!"

"That's right, then we will be together!" Feng Yin Misty said with a smile: "You just called for money will not buy a ship Not enough money?"

"How do you know?" I looked at him in surprise.

"Last time you even had to sell magic pets for the 1 million crystal coins, and build a ship with hundreds of thousands, plus some peripheral equipment, I guess it’s not more than 1 million. Can't be beaten down. Let's talk, how much are you short of? I borrowed you!" Feng Yin Misty is worthy of being the president of the Central Plains' largest guild, and he is really good at being a man!

Hong Yue stopped Feng Yin Misty. "Wait, I'll borrow it!" I looked at Hong Yue in surprise and wondered when she would change sex! But the following words make me sure that she has not changed at all. "Purple Moon! I will be your creditor from now on, you have to listen to me! If you don't have any money, don't pay it back, just use yourself to repay the debt! I don't mind!" Halo, this girl wants to buy me what! It's a pity that my identity is different, maybe it's okay in the game, but no one can buy my real net worth!

"Miscellaneous, I really need money, I won't be polite with you anymore. It's not my style to twitch, but I will pay it back as soon as possible!"

Feng Yin Misty He smiled and said: "It's okay, I don't care. Actually, I hope you don't pay it back!"

"Huh?" I was shocked. Both of these siblings want to buy me, right!

"The few monster eggs you sold last time almost didn't get the elders in our guild to fight, you have time to help us get a few more than pay back!" What does he mean! Scared me! I thought he had that hobby!

"No problem! I must take the time to help you catch some good ones!"

"That's fine! Let's talk about it, how much do you want?"

I turned around to look Looking at Rose, Rose immediately understood what I meant. "4 million!" This is not Lion's big mouth. Those artillery will cost 1.8 million, and the necessary sailing sailors will cost about 400,000, which is 2.2 million, plus the estimated 3.5 million for the hired combat sailors. I don’t know how much money is for the bow image! According to the generally exaggerated price of magic items, the remaining 500,000 may not be enough!

"So much?" Although Feng Yin is very rich, but he didn't expect that we need so much money for shipbuilding. "How many boats do you have?"

"1!" I smiled awkwardly at Feng Yin's misty chin. "Hehe! It's just a little bigger!"

"I'm afraid it's not a little bigger, right?" Feng Yin Miomi has his own fleet, and he knows how much a ship costs! "4 million is still the difference, and your entire ship is estimated to have cost more than 5 million?"

"You guessed right! Our shipbuilding fee is 1.6 million. I borrowed the 4 million to buy it. Peripheral equipment!"

"The 1.6 million boat shouldn't be too big? Did you use that much money?" Feng Yin mistily took out a shipyard shipbuilding manual suspiciously. "My ship is already the largest. The shipbuilding cost is only 1.8 million, and the peripheral equipment didn't cost you so much!" Rose stepped forward to explain. "Our ship was requested by Purple Moon as a special case. His charm value is relatively high. The shipyard opened a back door to specially build a super large battleship. The actual cost is 2.8 million crystal coins. Set a price of 1.6 million!"

"Oh my God! Then the actual total cost of your ship is 6.8 million crystal coins? When will it be built? I'm going to pay tribute to the largest ship in China. The demeanor!"

"If you are interested, come to the dock to wait for us at noon tomorrow, and we will watch her launch together. After all, there is your investment here too!"

"This is money, I have to go to my own guild to solve the problem of the fleet, so I won't accompany you." After Feng Yin Miomao took Hong Yue away. This woman! Scared me!

When I got the money, I first went to the blacksmith and he ordered the cannon, and then I went to the Mariners’ Association to hire the necessary sailors. Looking at the eagle and others, I asked: "What about the combat sailors?"

Bai Lingdao: "We should hire more melee sailors. Our long-range firepower is already very exaggerated. The archer actually It's not very useful! The enemy dare to rush into the range of the mage and archer. It shows that it is to engage in hand-to-hand combat, so we should recruit more melee sailors."

Rose said: "Then reinstall Swordsman in 2000. 500 rocket soldiers, 50 for each of the four elements mage, exactly 2,700!"

"That's it!" I directly reported this number to the old man in charge of the employment of sailors, and it was 130. Ten thousand crystal coins are gone, plus the necessary sailors, we spent 1.695 million crystal coins just to hire sailors! In addition to the 1.8 million purchases of cannons, 3.495 million crystal coins are gone in this period of time! It's really easy to spend money!

With the last 505,000, we came to the Mage Association area. The Mage Association in the city feels like the Siheyuan in old Beijing, a small square surrounded by high towers. "Dark Mage Association, Chaos Mage Association, Fire Element Mage Association, Water Element Mage Association, Light Mage Association, Auxiliary Mage Association, Divine Law Master Association, Necromancer Association,..., Life Mage Association!" come over. "Good fellow, more than 70!"

"What should I do? Too many!" Bai Ling looked dizzy!

"Why don't we find them separately?" I suggested: "One person is responsible for several, write down all the more useful pictures of the bows we see, and then we compare and select the most suitable ones, and then Decide on a few key goals, let’s go in and watch them together."

"Okay! Let's see them separately!" We all assigned the tasks to separate them, and I was responsible for the 7 in the middle.

Fortunately, although there are many associations, none of them are big, at least the ones I saw are not big. The things in these seven associations are pretty good. I finally saw the Archfiend boat head of the Dark Association, the Evolit boat head of the Fire Element Mage Association, and the holy angel boat head of the Light Mage Association. The three bows have their own characteristics, and the prices are all the same. The most expensive is the particularly popular Saint Angel statue, which actually costs 510,000 crystal coins. I very much suspect that her beautiful appearance has caused such a high volume of shipments! In the end, it turns out that the demons with poor sales are the cheapest, 470,000 can be easily dealt with! It seems that the value of the gods is also affected by market supply and demand! Poor demon!

When everyone came out, it was already night. We had too many choices after a long time. The main thing is the Archfiend image that can greatly improve the melee formidable power of our ship, which can prevent fire and increase a certain amount. The statue of Evorite with formidable power of artillery, the statue of holy angels that greatly accelerate the recovery of attributes such as the life value of all crew members, the statue of hammers that make the ship stronger and harder to be damaged, the statue of skeletons that cause fear of the opponent's crew and make ordinary mistakes, The half-moon image that puts the ship in a semi-invisible state, the virgin image that greatly improves the morale of the crew and the speed of the gun, the giant dragon image that greatly increases the battleship's long-range firepower and the firmness, which makes the ship difficult to sink and greatly improves These are the giant sharks traveling fast, and Divine Idol, the wind that keeps the battleship downwind.

The fierce discussion was completely fruitless, so we had to arrange the prices according to the price. First we removed the unaffordable angels and virgin statues, and then removed the less cost-effective ones. Finally, whether we use Archfiend or There is no way to decide whether it is a skeleton statue or a half-moon statue or a giant dragon statue!

In the end, there is really no way! We used the most boring, most inexhaustible, stupid, but also the most traditional, practical, and effective method to decide which ship's head to use!

—————————————————————————————————————————— ———————————

Guess what method I used to determine the bow image?
