Chapter 464: Chapter 435: Recruiting Retired Members
Facing the invitation from the two presidents, Old Laiyi was stunned on the spot, then laughed heartily, "I’m already old, what can I still do? Besides, I’m the one responsible for the shipwreck. I have no face to board the ship anymore."
Da Fei hurriedly shook his head, "It’s not your fault, it’s the Sea God’s curse! Our Chamber of Commerce is currently rebuilding from scratch, and we need seasoned sailors like you!"
Coltner also quickly added, "Yes, yes, it’s your experience that we need!"
Old Laiyi smiled wryly, "Vice President, Baron Corneat, when it comes to experience, your grandfather is a renowned navigator in the Kingdom, much stronger than people like us. If you need experience, you can always go to him!"
Coltner gave a dry cough, "My old man is too old..."
Old Laiyi laughed, "And I’m not?"
Coltner sighed, "His heart has aged..."
Old Laiyi burst into laughter, "Ever since the Baron became the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, I’ve noticed that old man’s spirit has been getting better day by day. He’s almost reaching the level of the Great Druid reversing aging!"
Hey, hey, hey! I’m the president here, don’t leave me out! Da Fei then coughed and said, "So if Old Coltner agrees to join the Chamber, you will join too?"
Old Laiyi laughed heartily, "You’re speaking frank, President! Anyway, I’m idle too. If Old Colt joins, I’ll join! And not only will I join, but I’ll also contact all the old folks who were laid off when the Chamber disbanded to come over and enjoy their retirement. Even if the old ones can’t make it, they can call in their young ones! Vice President, what do you say?"
Da Fei’s eyebrow twitched with surprise, so Old Laiyi’s role was this significant! This was the real mission reward!
Overjoyed, Da Fei patted Corneat on the shoulder, "Vice President, this matter depends on you! That’s your own grandfather! If he doesn’t support your career, who will? And don’t forget, your father still has some land in the New World, that’s your family estate. I haven’t forgotten! The old man also mentioned that if anything needs his help, we can ask him. I remember that too!"
Old Laiyi chuckled, "Exactly, while I do think I have some experience, facing the Sea God’s curse, I’m still insecure. We need another experienced sailor as the backbone!"
Corneat also smiled wryly, "Alright, old man stays with old man, I’ll go back and find him now. If he doesn’t join, I won’t come to work!"
Da Fei laughed heartily, "Right, right, let’s see if he’ll come!"
Coltner straightened his bow tie, "Very well, President, take your time. Wait for my good news!"
Old Laiyi laughed heartily, "Anyway, I’m free. I’ll go too!"
Coltner laughed, "Alright, let’s go together!"
Watching the two leave laughingly, Da Fei suddenly felt an unexpected sense of assurance. I have already done the groundwork for this; this is definitely going to work! I am already a god in the eyes of player members, and after completing the "impossible task" said by the Ghost Captain, I should be a god in the eyes of NPCs as well. There’s no reason why I can’t recruit people!
As for now, there’s nothing much to say. The Divine Artifact is mine, after all this hard work and rushing around, what was all this for? Let me laugh for three minutes first, Wahaha...
And then it’s time to think about the use of the Divine Artifact. Although this lightning rod is incomplete, its attribute is not lacking, which means the difference from a perfect version of the Divine Artifact is just the extent of power? So, where to equip it? Radiant City? That’s underground, where does lightning come from?
So, it can only be installed on the ship?
Installed on the ship? Da Fei’s heart suddenly jumped! Isn’t this exactly the weapon to resist the Sea God’s curse? With it, plus my Professional Specialties in Storm Navigation, I would completely not fear storms! Damn, this mission is delivering me the task completion tool, isn’t it? It must be!
That’s right, my current Storm Navigation is not like the wild specialty from back then. It’s a sub-skill under Navigator, and its effect grows with the Navigator Level! I’m a Master-level Navigator, one step away from Grandmaster. Once I reach Grandmaster, I’ll directly use up Odyssey’s God-level Scroll, then I’d become a God-level Navigator, with God-level Storm Navigation, directly nullifying the Sea God’s storm curse!
A Divine Artifact plus God-level Talent and a group of experienced old sailors, why would I worry about not reviving? Wahaha! Da Fei, who had always been worried about the future of the Chamber of Commerce, suddenly saw a bright future!
Ultimately, a big reason I managed to receive this task to revive the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Commerce from the Mayor is because of my Storm Navigation talent! This is the most likely talent to counter the Sea God’s curse! Mayor, you have great vision, you are wise!
Thinking about the Mayor, Da Fei’s heart jumped again! What are mayors for? Of course, for taking shortcuts and accomplishing the impossible tasks for commoners!
Da Fei hurriedly picked up the Jade Dragon ship certificate, which is the proof of ownership for a ship, similar to a property certificate. Players exchange ships by exchanging ship certificates. The Flying’s ship certificate is a special task item and cannot be traded. freeweɓnovel-cøm
Looking at this expired ship certificate, Da Fei immediately sensed something unusual. Under normal conditions, if a player’s ship sinks, the ship certificate becomes useless. So theoretically, this expired Jade Dragon’s ship certificate is useless too—but is that possible? The treasure chest salvaged with great effort, and being placed along with the Divine Artifact, would it be a worthless piece of paper?
Absolutely impossible!
The Jade Dragon, a gigantic four-deck, five-mast, Galleon-class armed passenger cargo ship, what a magnificent existence! The Flying and the Radiant Wings are just three-deck, four-mast large ships. Of course, as high-speed exploration ships, large is the limit, any bigger would impact speed and use.
So far, Da Fei only encountered one gigantic ship, the "Flame Lord," on Fire Dragon Island. As introduced in earlier Chapters about Fire Dragon Island, gigantic ships are not in the same concept as large ships in terms of ship materials. Normal ship materials can only support a hull to a large size; any bigger would fall apart in winds and waves. So gigantic ships’ materials are usually copper-wrapped wood or iron-wrapped wood, structurally sufficient and as defensively solid as copper walls, typically used to craft main battleships.
And to think the Jade Dragon was a gigantic armed passenger cargo ship, using a battleship as a cargo ship! It shows how impressive the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Commerce was back then! And my mission is to revive the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Commerce, how could it lack such an impressive giant ship?
No more words, I’m confident this paper exists to reimburse me for this gigantic ship! And who to look for reimbursement? The Mayor, of course! The least reliable reason for reimbursement would be compensation support, and the most reliable would be to ask for assistance in reconstruction! In any case, as long as the system allows me to build a giant ship, I’ll do it without hesitation.
When others have small ships, I have big ships; when others have medium ships, I’ll have giants. I pursue technology overpowering!
So, let’s get to it, Da Fei immediately headed out straight to City Hall.
