God-level Hero-Chapter 54 - 51 The Beginning of a Great Maritime

Chapter 54: Chapter 51 The Beginning of a Great Maritime Enterprise Chapter 54: Chapter 51 The Beginning of a Great Maritime Enterprise Editor: Atlas Studios The so-called rich people were essentially just those who cruised around in luxury yachts filled with bikini-clad beauties, spraying champagne all over them while going “aha aha ha ha”—so vulgar!

In my heart, the rich should be like me now, holding a silky-smooth, sultry sweetheart, sitting on a deck as smooth as water, fishing, barbequing, drinking rum, enjoying the sea breeze, watching the stars, listening to the waves, and singing love poems from the heart! Discussing the future of love! Between the sky and sea, it’s our artistic world!

—”Let us paddle together, the little boat pushes through the waves…” That’s for pirates, no future.

—”Chase the power of thunder and lightning… even the smallest sails can travel far!” That’s courting death!

—”Night after night, I dream of seeing you…” That’s Titanic, fits perfectly! Wahaha!

After last night’s storm, this ship’s durability was now under 1000, with cracks everywhere, not far from becoming the Titanic. While storms easily damaged the ship, fixing it would restore durability. But the fact that it easily lost maximum durability showed the ship was too old. The system was not that generous after all.

Facing the future, Da Fei, while holding the beloved in his arms, sighed, “Don’t worry, this ship can still be used for a while. In this period, we’ll earn big money and then buy a new big ship. By then, we’ll decorate the new ship into a luxury palace, mount a dozen crossbow cannons, arm the ship into a fortress, and then we can roam in the New World, living the happiest life of a sea emperor.”

Catherine sighed gently, “It’s really a pity about this ship. Even though it wasn’t maintained for years, it’s still the most high-performance ship I’ve seen. Kingdom terms would call it a special-purpose ship. Regular shipyards wouldn’t produce it.”

Da Fei was taken aback, “Special-purpose ship?”

Catherine nodded, “Yes, the wood materials of this ship are very rare and unique. The size and shape of a ship are closely tied to the quality of the wood. The wood of this ship is sturdy and resilient; only sturdy wood can support a massive hull under the thrust of waves and strong winds, and only resilience can sustain such a long, streamlined, high-speed hull. Now, with just the two of us, we can’t bring out its performance. The ship is too old to perform, but if it had top sailors, one could imagine how fast it used to be!”

So, building ships in the game also had so much science behind it? Da Fei sighed, “After all, it’s a ship that once shouldered a significant historical mission, must be much better than ordinary ships—” then he perked up, “But no worries, we just work hard to make money. As long as there’s enough money, there’s always a way to get a new ship with the same performance.”

Catherine smiled charmingly, “Although such ship materials are hard to get, I believe the Captain will find a way.”

While stroking her smooth fragrant shoulders, Da Fei laughed, “Of course, nothing can stump me!”

Even so, Da Fei was inwardly struggling, as the personality of a hero was indeed quite important! The darling was passionate and fiery, easily persuaded to shed layers until only underwear remained, a player’s blessing! But she was outright a gold digger! I’m a professional player, making money to sell Gold Coins to buy cars and houses, not this far-fetched, unreliable special-purpose ship!

But then, who am I? An expert! A Master! A God-level Hero with dual specialties and dual professions! Someone who’s onboard a broken ship with not a penny to his name, yet she chose me for my future! Are there such good gold diggers in reality? Conquering a gold digger is a symbol of a successful man! If things unachievable in real life aren’t achievable in the game, then what’s the point?

In short, a bright tomorrow calls me, and beautiful angels open their arms to me!

Arms! Looking at the bosom of the sweetheart that was wrapped and about to burst, Da Fei felt a pang of hatred! What is underwear? The game’s Divine Domain! An absolutely impregnable fortress no matter how thin!

A streak of dawn reddened the sky, marking the start of a new day. The fresh sea breeze lightly caressed the sails, and flocks of seagulls circled the Flying, chirping briskly. Having seabirds indicated that land was near.

Catherine took out the sea chart, “Captain, we’ve reached the coastal waters of the Elf Kingdom Farolan. The nearest big port is Elorin, and once on shore, the first thing the Captain must do is go to the Alliance Sea Commerce Association to get an outbound trade permit, only with this permit will the trading houses do business with us. Initially, the trade permit is only level 1, and trading houses will sell us a maximum of 10 units of low-grade goods per day. Only by doing more business and gaining a good reputation can we upgrade the permit to buy more and higher-grade goods. However, this doesn’t fully utilize our ship’s transport capacity. So, we should take on the Chamber of Commerce’s transport tasks; the more and farther we transport, the more credit we gain, rapidly increasing the trade permit level. Of course, such tasks require upfront deposits equivalent to the value of the goods, so first we must find ways to earn money for the deposits.”

Da Fei laughed heartily, “Baby, I didn’t expect you to know so much.”

Catherine laughed, “Being a pirate, one must understand the habits of merchants, investigate market trends, and then ambush them at their most likely places.”

Da Fei laughed, “Pirates really are a technical job!”

Indeed, Catherine made sense, but players had their own methods. The trading house limited players to one transaction a day, right? Well, just buy goods from other players at high prices.

Players with a regular level 1 trade permit could only buy 10 units per day, while my ship had a capacity of 1,000 units; I could just set up a stall at the trading house entrance and buy 100 players’ supply orders at high prices. How high? Just slightly above their purchase price. During public testing, many players were too lazy to go out to sea, simply staying in the city to do this business.

In the game, commerce and trade were crucial selling points, determining a player’s ability to develop and grow. That’s why there were “Accounting Skill” and “Bargaining Skill” in Lord System Skills.

—Accounting Skill: Territory income can increase by up to 3% monthly, with 3% increases per skill level.

Sub-skills include “Farm Development,” “Mine Development,” “Orchard Development,” “Fishery Development,” “Market Development,” etc., further boosting facility income and production.

—Bargaining Skill: Haggling can reduce purchase prices by up to 5% and increase selling prices by up to 5%. Each level enhances effects by 5%.

Sub-skills include “Food Trade,” “Textile Trade,” “Luxury Trade,” etc., enabling cheaper prices to buy more from the trading house. Master-level Negotiation Skill included “Bribery” during public testing, shocking the business world with this Divine Skill!

—Bribery: You could pay the trading house trader to sell you additional goods.

The Lord System also included Recruitment Skill for troop recruitment, and City Construction Skill for boosting building durability and construction speed. Overall, Lord System Skills were quite a pain as they left few Skill Points for fighting. As a Lord, the focus was on having many troops and Vice Heroes; fighting personally was the lesser option. For Da Fei, amid the hefty profits from large transport capacity, any bargaining skill was just fleeting.

Now, Da Fei could see the coastal land and those tiny white sails on the distant sea. Those white sails were of players running small commercial ships near the coast, only being able to buy a single-masted ship that could carry 10 units of cargo at most, shuttling between ports.

Ah, I wonder what they will think seeing my 1,000-unit large ship? Land, I’ve finally returned! My grand sea commerce enterprise starts here! Wahahahaha!

At this moment, a fleet of 20 small sailboats was sailing lightly on the distant sea, and the approach of the massive Flying naturally caught their attention.

“Brother Cannon, look, look, that ship seems to be player-operated!”

A dwarf clan player named Skyshattering Cannon immediately took out a telescope to check, seeing the big red words “Flying (Da Fei)” atop the large ship!

Skyshattering Cannon was shocked, “The trash player Da Fei wanted across the entire server!”

Suddenly, the whole fleet burst out! But they quickly regained composure, “Da Fei is alone! And even with the notorious red name, if we kill him, his equipment and ship certificate might all drop!”

Skyshattering Cannon immediately ordered, “Quick, contact Blood Sea Studio, everyone record the video as evidence, ready to engage!”

Everyone shouted in excitement!
