Treasure hunter, sailing on the blue sea

Haibo waved his hand and said, "Don't ask me how I am now, tell me about you."

Obviously, the old man had heard that something happened to Andre and his treasure hunting group, and wanted to know more about their comfort.

“I heard before that something happened to Andre’s ship, and I thought I couldn’t see this violent little girl like you.

Where is your father? What happened to that irascible young man Andre? "

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

Alka learned from these words that Xia Detti might have been really violent as a child, which left a deep impression on the old man.

Didn’t you expect that Andre was also a violent young man when he was young?

Xia Detti replied: "The treasure hunting group was destroyed, but father is still safe, but one arm is broken."

"Did he break his arm... Oh, the sea... But it's good that he's still alive, so that he can live here peacefully."

"His contribution is worthy of being a regional bishop."

Haibo sighed a little and said helplessly.

Then he suddenly thought of something, patted his head, looked at the two of them and said sheepishly: "I seem to have digressed. That's what happens when you get older. Who is this young man?"

Hearing Haibo's words, Alka immediately took a step forward, stretched out his hand and shook his hand.

"Hello, my name is Alka. I used to be a member of Andre's treasure hunting group."

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

Hearing this, Alka smiled and said: "This is my ship, and I want to entrust your shipyard to help me repair it."

Haibo looked at the dilapidated ship, walked over with a cane, stretched out his rough hands, and touched the rotten and broken hull.

"This ship has gone through a lot, and the entire body has been corroded by the elements of darkness."

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

Then he took the craftsmen behind him, who looked like his apprentices, onto the ship, and asked the two of them to come up as well.

"It's safer here. You should know the situation of your ship. She is a ghost ship."

Alka nodded, worthy of being a descendant of a shipbuilding family, he could tell at a glance.

"She should be a little bit off, can you...well, I mean can you help her complete the last step?"

Haibo's wording was a little cautious, but the meaning was expressed.

Alka nodded. He knew that Haibo was talking about whether he had any treasures and whether he could help the ship take the final step and officially become a ghost ship.

After all, he is a master of the shipyard, and knowing this information should be helpful in the repair of the ship.

"Yes, that's great if you can, then there will be more options to choose from."

Haibo was obviously relieved.

Then the old man took the apprentices behind him and began to look around the entire ship, taking various magic tools to measure here and there.

The two of them stood on the deck and watched them work.

While the Haibo was measuring, he was also teaching the apprentices behind him.

The tone and tone of the curse were nothing like that of an old man.

Those apprentices were scolded so badly that they could only say yes again and again.

They were busy until late at night before they finished it.

Haibo put away the measuring tools and returned to the deck with the help of the apprentice behind him.

Looking at Alka, he said: "I have two plans for this ship. You can see which one is better."

"The first plan is also the most basic one. We will completely replace the entire ship, retain the core keel, and repair it according to the highest level of spell ship.

The advantage is that it is convenient and fast, and the materials used are relatively cheap. "

"How cheap is it relatively cheap?" Alka couldn't help but asked curiously.

"It's about 2,000 to 2,500 gold sails. It's already very cheap. Because it's an order from the archbishop, we don't charge labor fees, only the most basic material fees."

An apprentice behind him also said: "If we charge labor fees, the price will have to double again."

"..."

Hearing this, both Alka and Shadetti fell silent.

According to Alka, an ordinary lower-level spell ship requires about a few hundred gold sails.

For example, Andre's boat is worth about 600 to 800 gold sails.

But after all, it is the property of the church, and it should have been manufactured in this shipyard. The price should not be the normal market price.

And that was just an average spell ship.

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

But judging from the expressions of Haibo and the apprentices behind him, it seemed that it was really cheap.

2,000 golden sails, what an astronomical figure? And if you include labor costs, it will double.

In other words, if you buy it outside, you may need 4,000 gold sails and up.

Maybe the supply exceeds the demand. After all, not all shipyards can manufacture ships of this level.

In the ocean world, ships are strategic resources.

Looking at it this way, the top-level spell ship is definitely the kind of thing that even money can't buy.

Alka couldn't help turning his head to look at Xia Detti.

What he wanted to know was how much the treasures they brought out from the Dark Realm could be sold for.

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

Alka's eyes widened when he heard this.

Did they bring out so much treasure?

He has been frantically looking for treasures, but has no specific understanding of the amount of treasures.

It turns out that he is already rich and successful.

He turned around and asked without hesitation: "What about the second option?"

Now you have money, deep pockets, and the best.

“The second option is that we use special means to reinforce and smelt the usable parts of the entire ship and the parts where Enlightenment’s soul resides into a stronger keel.

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

Then, with the help of materials, a ship will be built again according to the top-level spell ship specifications.

After all, the ship's forging technology and spell styles were from 600 years ago, and were already behind the current times. The advantage of this is that it is more flexible and can be customized to suit your needs.

The disadvantage is that it is time-consuming and requires more money. It will take more than half a year to complete, and it will cost about 4,000 gold sails, purely for material costs. "

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

The main thing is that the wealth does not belong to him alone, but to himself, Lucilia, Xia Detti and Polo.

It’s just that I make up the majority.

Turning around to look at Xia Daiti.

Xia Detti, who knew what he meant, said directly: "I have no problem."

"Me too!" Lucilia said, waving her hands.

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

As for Pororo, he must be 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 one year left, and they still have to complete the task given by the archbishop.

But the most important thing is to ask Music Boat itself.

Patted the main mast.

"Good girl, which option do you want to choose?"

Two elegant tones came.

It's obvious that she likes the second type and wants that refreshing feeling.

Since the ships themselves have chosen the second option, there is nothing to hesitate about.

"Okay! That's the second type!"

Alka gritted his teeth and said forcefully, fearing that he would regret it.

Haibo smiled and nodded.

"No problem, then you can keep this ship here. In the past few days, you need to give the functions and layout of the ship you want.

Then we will draw up the design plan and start manufacturing. As for the payment, we will deliver it after forging. "

"You can go back now and come back after you have thought about your customization requirements. Then we will sign the contract."

Alka nodded.

Then he thought of something, and a stack of information appeared in his hand, which he handed to Hai Blog in front of him.

"This is something we harvested when we sailed in the Dark Territory before. Xia Detti said it is related to your family."

Hai Blog heard this and took over the information to check it out.

A smile appeared on his face.

"Although the technology has lagged behind, it is of great commemorative significance to our family. Thank you."

"I will do my best to build your ship, and I will definitely satisfy you."

Alka nodded.

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

On the way, Alka couldn't help but ask: "Can Xia Daiti really sell for so much money? It will be embarrassing if we don't have enough money."

"Don't worry, you have to believe in my vision and methods. 4,500 will only be more, not less."

Hearing Xia Detti's confident words, Alka nodded with confidence.

Chatting all the way back to the villa.

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

Several people opened the courtyard door and walked in.

"You're back, why did it take so long? I couldn't wait for you anymore, so the barbecue party started."

Jason said while looking at the three of them, holding a long string of meat skewers in his hand.

"It's really abominable that you started without waiting for us." Alka said with a smile, and then walked over quickly.

Lucilia's doll on her shoulder changed back to its original shape, fell down, and Alka caught it and hung it on her waist.

Moments like this were what Lucilia hated the most, and she would hide in the magic mirror to rest.

Alka didn't have any good ideas.

He could only shake his head helplessly.

Looking at Pororo who was holding a large piece of barbecue and chewing on it, he said: "Pororo, all the treasures we have obtained before may be spent on the manufacture of ships. Are you willing?"

Upon hearing this, Pororo waved his hand casually: "It doesn't matter, you just decide."

As he spoke, he concentrated on chewing the barbecue in front of him, and said to old Bobby next to him: "Although you old man has a weird temper, your barbecue skills are really good."

"You damn fish-man, you must be discerning."

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

“Here’s to the delicious food!”

"Ha ha ha ha."

The impromptu barbecue dinner dispelled the fatigue and sadness in my heart.

Laughter, singing and good wine soothed the tired soul.

…………

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

Fortunately, I am in good physical condition. Otherwise, I drank so much last night, but it would have been pretty good to wake up today.

After washing up, I came to the living room.

The doll on my waist disappeared somewhere early in the morning.

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

Pororo came back from the outside. Being a fishman or the sea is more suitable for him.

He was not used to being allowed to rest in a room in the villa.

But Julia doesn't seem to have such a problem. As long as she has Alka's humidifier, she doesn't really care.

Compared to fishmen like Pororo, mermaids seem to be more human-like.

At this time, Xia Detti also walked down from the second floor, holding the doll Lucilia in his hands.

Look at everyone arriving.

Alka clapped his hands and said: "Do you have any personal needs for future ships? You can tell them now. I will go to sign the contract in a while."

After hearing this, everyone sat over with interest.

Listening to Alka telling them a brief story about yesterday's simple experience in the shipyard.

By the way, let them answer their respective requests.

The first was Pororo, who said casually: "There needs to be a room with access to seawater, and a room for exercise. It would be even better if there is a sea tank."

After hearing Pororo's request, Alka directly recorded it. As for whether he could complete such a problem, he didn't care.

They just need to give their opinion.

After hearing that some of Pororo's requests were slightly outrageous, everyone became bolder.

"I want a library. It would be better if there are plants in the library. It would be even better if there are trees."

Lucilia climbed onto Alka's shoulders and sat on them.

Have you come to plant trees?

But Alka still wrote it down on the paper. Who cares, just mention it as much as you want.

"Then I want a drawing room, um... and a big bathroom, and preferably a solid treasure house... That's it."

Hearing Xia Dai's request, Alka nodded. This request was much more reasonable.

Jason thought hard for a long time before speaking out his request: "I want a shooting range where I can practice shooting, a safe ammunition depot and a gun manufacturing room."

"Then I want a karaoke room that won't disturb others, and a private room. Half of the room should be able to freely pour sea water."

Alka recorded everyone's requests on paper one by one without any deletion.

Then he added his own request at the end.

Extra spare room, double-layer artillery deck, fully automatic control of loading and firing.

It must have the function of automatically recognizing an attack and turning on the shield, it must be able to dive, and it must be strong enough.

...Well, I need a big refrigerated storage room.

Then we need a large captain's cabin, which should be made like a conference room.

Another machine manufacturing room is required, constructed according to the standards of a sculptor and a caster.

Finally, some weird features were added.

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

Xia Detti watched curiously from the side the whole time.

After watching Alka finally finish writing, he couldn't help but raise his head and look at him with a strange look.

She felt that even Grandpa Haibo, who had such a good temper, might give him a beating.

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

"We only need to put forward requirements, what can be achieved and what cannot be achieved, and what we try our best to achieve is what they need to worry about."

Alka behaves like Party A, with awe-inspiring righteousness.

Then he came to the shipyard with this customized request.

Through the guidance of the service staff, we arrived at Haibo's office.

At this time, Haibo was writing something on a huge drawing. Alka did not disturb him and waited quietly beside him.

Look at the composition on the drawing.

There should be an improvement plan for the Music Boat, which can be seen from some clues.

Alka was not in a hurry and watched quietly from the side.

It wasn't until a while later that Haibo seemed to have completed a small stage of the work. He nodded with satisfaction and raised his head to look at Alka.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Alka shook his head: "It's okay, I'm also studying."

Haibo smiled and nodded, a very polite child.

Then Alka walked up and gave him the opinion sheet in his hand.

Haibo smiled and took it. Looking at the comments above, the smile on his face changed from bright to smile, then solidified, and finally stiffened.

Alka was beside him, the polite smile on his face unchanged.

Haibo, who had a stiff expression, raised his head and looked at Alka in front of him.

He decided to take back his previous comment. This kid was not polite at all.

"Can Grandpa Haibo meet the above requirements?" Alka directly used the intimate title.

"Do you think it can be achieved?" Haibo couldn't help but asked.

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

"hehe."

Haibok shook his head helplessly, pulled Alka, and began to make choices based on the opinions he gave, and gave a plan for Alka's reference to see if an agreement could be reached.

Although the request is outrageous, as Alka said, this is one of the top shipyards in the world.

According to some opinions given by Hai Blog, Alka sometimes nodded, sometimes shook his head, and sometimes argued vigorously with him.

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

Hai Blog then panted and patted the table.

"That's enough. That's it. It's decided. Don't give me any more advice."

Seeing the old man in front of him panting and looking like he might lose his breath at any moment, Alka quickly shut up.

He ran over and rubbed the old man's back to help him recover.

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

Alka signed the contract with a smile, and then was kicked out by the old man.

"Oh, why are you so angry? It's the church's shipyard. It's really powerful."

According to the debate that lasted most of the day, almost all the above requirements were met, and Alka also took the opportunity to make a few more suggestions.

It's perfect.
