"Two sirs, my sir are already waiting for your arrival at the town gate." Oaked said to Celtic and Bikud.

Bikud smiled and thought nothing happened, but Celtic had a terrible face.

Although it is related to you, no matter what, you are Shangguan. You, a little major, are you just greeted at the gate of the town. Are you too arrogant?

Seeing that Celtic's face was not very good, Oaked quickly explained.

"Originally, my adults wanted to travel ten kilometers to welcome the two adults, but my adults were tortured fifty times. We guards couldn't bear to suffer our adults and forced them to stop them, so our adults could only greet them at the gate of the town. Please forgive me."

Celtic asked curiously: "Major Cons is the master of this major leader. Who can punish him for fifty whipping?"

Oaked spoke eloquently about Cons's punishment, which made Celtic brow jump.

Although he knew that this was a good way to win people's hearts, he would never be able to do it himself. Thinking about how ten whips could beat the body to pieces, Cons was actually whipped fifty whips!

After being so seriously injured, I walked to the town gate to greet me? This is enough face!

Thinking of this, Celtic immediately smiled on his face. He did not suspect that the whipping was fake, and that it would be faked in public. Not to mention buying people's hearts, it would definitely have a counterproductive effect. The consequences would be even more serious than not buying people's hearts. No one with a little brain would do this.

Unlike Celtic's feelings, Bikud's attention is on the explanation Okde.

Unexpectedly, a guard under the major, was so good at speaking that he could decide what he wanted to say based on the eyes of those of you?

Just like just now, Celtic just looked bad, he knew why and could immediately come up with a solution. If it weren't for someone to teach him in advance, but he made a temporary decision by himself, then he would be a great man.

With this insight, Bikud couldn't help asking, "What's your name, little brother? What position do you hold in the personal guard?"

Okede hurriedly saluted and said, "The villain dare not bear the title of the adult. Okede is just an ordinary guard."

When he heard that Okde was just an ordinary guard, Bikud immediately became interested. He did not believe that Cons's guards were all capable people. He believed that Cons did not have the wisdom to recognize people, so he immediately started to recruit them.

"Okde, how about coming to our provincial government as a staff member?"

Okde smiled and shook his head: "Thank you for your wrong love. The young one is a slave. He was promoted to his personal guard by my family. He is so kind that he dare not not repay him."

When he heard that Okde was a slave, Bikud knew that there was no chance. This kind of guard who was a slave had the closest relationship with his superiors, and there was almost no possibility of betraying his superiors.

Bikud no longer spoke, but he sighed in his heart that Cons was lucky. Any slaves who bought casually have such talents.

Of course, Bikud also secretly decided not to recommend this Okde to Cons. Such talent cannot be used by me, so let him sink into mediocrity.

"The Lord, welcome the two adults, welcome the two adults here to inspect." Cons saluted Celtic and Bikud with a happy face.

After the two met, Bikud spoke politely, while Celtic glanced at Cons' expression. Seeing that Cons's face was a little pale and not very painful, he couldn't help but look puzzled in his eyes.

When Cons turned around and walked into the town, he found that there were signs of bandage on Cons' back, and he could smell the medicine when he got close to it. Since then, Celtic began to get up with Cons with a smile.

In the lord's mansion, Neil and Gong Zordon followed everyone to salute Bikud and Celtic. At first, they thought the two were the leaders of nearby towns. After learning about their identities from the chat, the excitement in their eyes flashed constantly, which made Oak, who was paying attention to them, frowned, fearing that they would have the idea of ​​hugging their thighs.

"Brother Cons, I heard that you have seized more than 80 ships. How about it? Can you sell a few to me?" Bikud was very intimate as soon as he opened his mouth.

When Celtic heard this, he interrupted and said, "Brother, you must sell me a few ships!"

Although Bikud and Celtic met, they asked Cons to call themselves brothers, Cons continued to call themselves the master and the subordinate. After persuading them once, they called each other their own.

"Huh? Why are the two sirs interested in the dilapidated fishing boats seized by the officials? It is better to build any shipyard in the provincial capital than these fishing boats." Cons asked in confusion.

A newly built ship that can carry fifty people and five tons of cargo is only a thousand gold coins. How could these two local snakes think of buying those ragged fishing boats of bandits? Could it be that they used this opportunity to give gold coins to Cons?

When Bikud and Celtic heard this, they suddenly stared at Cons blankly for a while before Bikud patted his head.

"I forgot that Brother Cons has only been here for a while. Oh, I'll tell you, the shipyards in Haiquan Province cannot make sea ships at all. The shipyards around the dock are used to repair ships! It's a joke to let them build sea ships!"

Speaking of this, Bikud said with a complaining look on his face: "And don't think of leaving behind a few masters. As long as those boatmen upgrade their abilities to being able to build sea ships, they will be recruited by those excellent ports immediately.

"And the Empire is also happy to see outstanding ship workers gathered in one place in the empire, because this is convenient for large-scale manufacturing of ships and protection, so even if you want to use administrative orders, you can't retain talents!"

Cons and others were stunned. They didn't expect that this would happen. Because Haiquan Province has no deep-sea port, even the shipbuilders could not be kept?

"Where did the merchant's merchant ship come from?" Cons was still confused.

Even if the shipyard in Haiquan Province cannot make sea ships, you can still buy them in other provinces. Why do you need to seize the broken ships yourself? So I asked this sentence with hints.

Of course, Bikud understood the meaning and sighed again and said, "Of the five coastal provinces of the Empire, there are shipyards that can make sea ships, only Haiwu Province and Haiguang Province. Needless to say, Haiwu Province specializes in manufacturing warships for the Empire, so Haiguang Province specializes in manufacturing merchant ships.

"But think about it, there are so many merchants and so many powerful ships in the entire empire that need can only be obtained from Haiguang Province, and there are only a few shipyards. Unless you are a great noble, you can only queue up no matter how much money you have. Although we are a provincial military and political leader, the sea ships that we booked two years ago have not yet left the factory."

Celtic interrupted: "Otherwise, why don't you think we don't do it ourselves, but instead want to work with the people who fly across the peninsula to give him a profit out of thin air? It's because there is no ship that can go out to sea!"

Cons and others were stunned again. Judging from this, the empire's sea boats were very scarce. The broken fishing boats of the bandits were not very shabby, but they all had the ability to navigate, so these broken ships were all scarce!

Oak, who originally wanted to suggest that Cons sell the seized broken fishing boat to buy a large ship, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the proposal was not expressed, otherwise it would be too late to regret it when the boat was sold.

Neil, who was listening next to him, did not react, while Gong Zordon walked out and knelt in front of Cons.

"Sir, my subordinates propose to rob some ship craftsmen to come back, so that they can earn a lot of money by selling ships! Please ask my subordinates to hand over this matter to my subordinates, and my subordinates will not disappoint me!"

Neil was stunned, but he knew that this guy took the opportunity to increase his weight. He cursed and snatched it out and knelt on the ground to express his willingness to recruit shipmakers for Cons.

Bikud widened his eyes and said, "Uh, Brother Cons, who are these two people? Why are they so bold and arrogant?"

Celtic sneered: "Robber boat craftsmen? Recruiting boat craftsmen? You can tell! Skilled boat craftsmen are treasures of shipyards, and a full regular division guards those shipyards!"

Neil and Gong Jodon ignored the military and political leaders of the two Haiquan provinces. In their opinion, officials of such a large military and political affairs in a province would come to this remote place to visit a small major. From this we can tell how capable the major is.

Oak, who was always on guard against them, would never have imagined that the military and political leaders of Haiquan Province came to discuss the smuggling activities with Cons, which made these two newly defected guys since then devoted themselves to Cons.

Cons explained with a smile: "The shipmaker they said was not the shipmaker of the Empire, and they did not have the courage to violate the laws of the Empire."

Cons is also a shrewd person and does not explain the identity of Gong and Jordan.

"Isn't the ship craftsman of the empire? Is it the Free Alliance? The Free Alliance, which is based on merchants, is even more precious to those ship craftsmen!" Bikud asked with a frown.

"Haha, of course it's not from the Free Alliance. How could I, a subordinate of a little major, offend a country? Although it's an enemy country, I don't have such great ability."

Cons smiled and gave the answer.

"The boatman my subordinates talk about is the boatman on the Feidu Peninsula."

Seeing Gong Zordon and Neil nodding, Bikud and Celtic both jumped up and said in surprise: "The boatman of Feidu Peninsula? Brother! Don't you know that our partner is a force on Feidu Peninsula? This is an offending partner!"

Cons didn't say anything, but just gave a wink at Mongol.

Gong Zordun, who received the instructions, bowed politely to Bikud and the others: "The two adults have a lot of power on Feidu Peninsula. As long as they don't attack the shipmaster of the adult partner, I believe that the adult will only be happy and will not take his anger on us."

Bikud blinked. Of course he knew that there were many boatmen on the Feidu Peninsula. He asked his partner for boatmen, but the other party refused. As the governor of the coastal province, he knew the importance of boatmen, so he didn't care.

But his request to buy a ship was also rejected, which made Bikud hold a grudge, because the idiot also knew that the guy wanted to keep the transfer station firmly in his hands. Without a sea boat, he could not abandon his own smuggling!

When he thought of being able to build a sea ship, Bikud thought of endless gold coins rolling in. I believe that if he controls this shipyard, the backer will look at him differently? After all, many of the subordinates who backer need sea ships urgently, this is a good opportunity to win people's hearts.

Unlike Pikud, who was immersed in fantasy, Celtic, who was not stupid in his head, said with a smile: "Haha, Brother Cons really wants it. As long as he speaks, I will immediately transfer him a brigade to obey your order. As long as the sea ship is built, don't forget to sell a few more ships to me."

Hearing this, Bikud's body shook suddenly, damn! He actually forgot whose territory this was, and he actually dared to daydream the shipyard that had not yet appeared! Thinking of this, he immediately smiled.

"Brother, I have no soldiers to send me, but I can still help me dispatch the shipbuilding materials. For management personnel, as long as I need to open my mouth, it will be fine to pull half of the shipyard in the provincial capital wharf! As long as the sea ship is built, take care of me."

"Of course, the two adults will take care of the officials in this way, and the officials will never forget the officials."

Cons said that, but he was secretly funny, and it was still nothing. They were asking for the ship here?

However, since they promised to give people and soldiers materials just to buy sea ships, it seems that the benefits brought by sea ships are enough to make people crazy.

"Don't worry, we absolutely support me. By the way, I wonder if I can sell us a few captured sea ships?" said Bikud.

As soon as Cons opened his mouth, Oak said to Cons first: "Sir, I just went to see the seized fishing boats and found that they were all ragged and needed some repairs before they could be used."

Cons understood Oak's intention, so he said with a embarrassed look: "Two sirs, you have heard that you can sell those rotten ships. The officials can't do such a thing. Why not wait until the boatman has a ship and create a new ship for the two sirs, how about it?"

When you don’t know the value of a sea boat, it doesn’t matter how many ships you sell to them, but after you know that these two guys don’t have sea boats in their hands and even sell them, that’s an idiot.

Cons is not an idiot, so of course he doesn't sell.hf();
