Becoming the Master of a Mermaid Island From Today

Chapter 49

However, Ren felt that it was not so easy to find news about the sea monster group.

The ocean is too big.

It can only be done step by step.

"Repair the Ocean Spring first!"

Ryan said to himself.

Repairing the Fountain of the Ocean requires 2 million gold coins, and it will take Rennes more than ten days to accumulate.

Immediately afterwards, Ren calculated the gold coins to be spent recently, and immediately found that... although the gold coins have been received very quickly, there are too many places where gold coins need to be spent.

Building upgrades are actually not the biggest expenditure.

The biggest expenditure is on building equipment for mermaids and sea elves.

Iron armor is very cheap, and you only need 100 gold coins to make a set.

Enchanted iron armor started to become more expensive, with one type of magic pattern costing 500 gold coins for a complete set.

Iron armor with two magic patterns is more expensive, requiring 1,000 gold coins for a complete set.

Iron armor can only be attached with two magic patterns.

And when it comes to Mithril armor, it needs 5000 gold coins for a complete set without enchanting.

The mithril armor worn by the mermaids now requires a full set of 10,000 gold coins.

Of course, if this kind of mithril armor is placed on the mainland, the price will be several times or even ten times more expensive. Generally, only high-level fighters can afford such equipment.

How can an ordinary army have such good equipment!

This kind of extremely sophisticated equipment in the human kingdom is the standard equipment on Mermaid Island.

A set of 10,000 gold coins is actually not expensive for Rennes now.

But don't forget about quantity.

Among the mermaids now, there are only 200 mermaids wearing mithril armor, and among the sea elves, only the first hundred or so sea elves wear wind pattern gold armor.

In other words, Renn has already invested millions of gold coins in the equipment of mermaids and sea elves.

This is also one of the reasons why Renn has harvested a lot of gold coins from pirates, and the output of the ranch is not low, but there are not many gold hands left.

This is actually normal.

In the kingdoms of the mainland, the most expensive thing is always the army.

The armor needed by the army is an astronomical sum, not to mention the food and wages.

Of course, mermaids don't need food or wages.

"I can think of a way to sell those jewels."

Ryan thought.

The jewels he got from the pirates and the White Shark King were worth millions, or even tens of millions, but they could be sold and exchanged for gold coins.

Chapter 0075 Frightened fleet! Overseas fee!

In the system warehouse, all kinds of jewels are piled up like a mountain.

These jewels were collected by several pirates who were wiped out by Rennes for many years.

Of course, the biggest one is the collection of the White Shark King.

There are many types of jewelry, and jewelry in this world is not just a pure luxury. Most jewelry is more or less stained with some magic elements and has some special effects.

These effects are real effects, unlike the world before Rennes traveled, 99.99% of the effects were blown out.

For example, a kind of blood agate, worn around the neck, can eliminate fatigue and make people energetic.

There is also a kind of luminous pearl, which not only can illuminate at night, but also is good for eyesight.

In short, it is not difficult to get rid of these jewels, and many people have taken over them.

There are more wealthy nobles on the mainland than imagined.

Ren took out a map and looked at it.

On the map, there are several countries on the east coast of the mainland.

These coastal countries are quite rich, and their populations are tens of millions or even over 100 million. They are quite prosperous. Any country can easily eat these jewels!

However, how to make a move is a problem.

Ren's eyes stayed on one of the countries for a few seconds, and then looked away.

In that prosperous country...he still has the status of a prince.

However, Ren is not planning to return to that country for the time being, nor is he planning to use his status as a prince.

"Let's deal with it like this."

After a while, Ryan had a solution.

In Mermaid Island, everything is business as usual.

The fountain of the ocean has been placed on the most central island by Rennes. After it is placed, the fountain is still bubbling out, but this fountain of the ocean is still in an unrepaired state and has no effect yet.

Mermaids are still hardworking.

So Ren came to the tree of the ocean and named the newly born sea elves one by one.

This step is still required.

For the newly born sea elves, it is of great significance to be named by their "god".

For them, Ren's naming is also a very important ceremony.

It is God's approval and blessing to them.

Without this step, every sea elf would be very lost!

After being named, each newly born sea elf jumped for joy, and their hearts were filled with endless joy.

Ren looked at the situation of the Ocean Tree again.

The number of sea elves has reached nearly 900, and in a few days, it will exceed 1,000.

However, the rating of Ocean Tree is still 3 stars, not 4 stars.

The star rating is already very high, and the requirements for a 4-star rating will be more, not only for the number of sea elves, but also for the strength of the sea elves. In addition, there are also big requirements for the ocean tree.

The ocean tree is still growing, but the speed of growth is not as fast as before, after all, it has grown into a full body.

After watching the situation of the Ocean Tree, Ren felt relieved, and left Mermaid Island with Eve and Leah, ten mermaids and three other whale ships and headed west.

On the vast sea, a fleet is sailing from north to south.

This fleet is not small, with more than ten merchant ships and five escort ships.

Among the five escort ships, a dark muzzle could be seen on the leading escort ship.

This shows that this escort ship has a magic cannon!

Such a fleet, a small group of pirates... dare not come to harass them at all!

The three pirates that Rennes destroyed first, the strongest one, did not dare to touch such a fleet, but only dared to attack those merchant ships that had no escort ships and were alone.

Such a merchant ship has limited strength and cannot afford escort ships.

The profits of ocean trade are astonishing, and pirates don't come out every day. In addition, the ocean is huge, and there are still many individual merchant ships that escaped pirates by chance and made a lot of money!

For those merchant ships, if they can successfully complete a transaction, they can also earn tens of thousands of gold coins, which is also a windfall!

Most of the fleet like this one belonged to a chamber of commerce with very strong financial resources. Of course, it may also be an escort ship hired by several chambers of commerce.

"There are no pirates in this sea area, and it feels much safer. The number of merchant ships recently is much more than before!"

On the deck of a ship in the fleet, several sailors were chatting.

"Heh, it's actually not that big of a difference to us. Ordinary pirates don't dare to take advantage of us, so they just need to pay the White Shark King a certain amount of sea fees every time. To be honest, I'm a little worried."

A sailor way.

"worry about what?"

asked the sailor next to him.

"Think about it, the ghost ship disappeared after destroying the White Shark King, and the other pirates were scared away, but the ghost ship did not occupy this sea area. Those pirates will come back sooner or later when the ghost ship disappears, the White Shark King Anyway, let’s talk about some rules, and under normal circumstances, if you give money, you will be released, but other pirates will not, and this sea area will be chaotic.”

Sailor Road.

The sailor did say some rules of the sea.

Several big pirate kings actually understood the dangers of fishing out of water. From the beginning, they exterminated all merchant ships, and then changed to collecting tolls, protection fees, etc., so as to prevent merchant ships from going out to sea at that time.

Also avoid being outraged by all the chambers of commerce and all the kingdoms unite to deal with them, and there will be no profit at that time!

And the reason why these pirate kings tolerate the existence of small pirates is probably partly to highlight their "rule-telling" side.

After all, without comparison, there is no harm.

There is also a saying that it all depends on peers.

Of course, "speaking the rules" is only relative, and it is profitable. Only when you want to make more money will you "speak the rules".

The Pirate King still makes some big moves from time to time to increase his reputation.

It's like the White Shark King's big move against the small seaside town. Although it is a cooperation with the Xiting Kingdom, it doesn't necessarily have the meaning of showing off.

"Yeah, unless all the pirates are wiped out, there still needs to be a pirate king in a piece of sea."

Another sailor way.

"Destroy all the pirates? How is it possible? The White Shark King is the weakest individual among the pirates, that is, the ability to control sharks poses a great threat to the fleet. Among the other pirates, which one is not a strong man of the fifth or even sixth rank? , I heard that there are still many ships of the nobles pretending to be pirates and plundering around the sea, all the sails are magic sails, and there are several magic cannons on a ship, how can they be so easy to destroy!"

The other sailor shook his head and said.

"Not necessarily, other pirate kings must also be afraid of ghost ships, otherwise they would have sent people over to occupy this sea area."

And sailor way.

The sea voyage was long, and these sailors didn't have much entertainment, so they had to gather together, brag and chat.

At this time, a sailor seemed to have stood in one posture for a long time, and then changed his posture, turned his head to the sea, and took a breath of fresh sea breeze.

He was about to speak, when he suddenly saw...a black...steel behemoth appearing on the sea not far away!

The sailor's eyes widened suddenly, and his speech became stammering.

"Ghost...ghost ship!"

The sailor stammered.

"Teng!"

Upon hearing the sailor's voice, the other sailors stood up one after another.

Everyone was terrified.

"Quick, inform them that the ghost ship is coming!"

A sailor blew his horn.

Suddenly, a large number of sailors rushed out of the cabin.

On the escort ships, fully armed soldiers also came to the deck with weapons such as bows and arrows.

"There's another one ahead!"
