Chapter 411: Chapter 344, Aren’t You Selling?
Hearing the other party still didn’t plan to give up, Kalemah furrowed his brows even more deeply.
He said, “What exactly do you want to do?”
“Very simple, just let some bad things be traced back to him.”
Kalemah narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the other person, “That’s your business.”
If ‘Wu Heng’ really had a problem, as an ‘Inspector Special Envoy’ it would naturally be his duty to remove him, while also doing the ‘Secret Cultivation Hall’ a favor.
However, if the other party had no issue, getting him involved in framing a Deputy Steward was not something he would do.
The association’s system was strict, with many ways of checking.
If it was found out that he had done such things, he would likely stir up a huge trouble.
The captain still maintained a smile, saying, “This matter, of course, has nothing to do with you. You only need to perform your duties when the time comes.”
Kalemah looked at him and said nothing.
Then the other party waved his hand, and a wooden box appeared on the table. The lid opened, revealing neatly stacked Gold Coins.
Dazzling and eye-catching.
Kalemah pondered for a moment, then reached out to take the wooden box and emphasized, “I only act according to the rules.”
“Yes, according to the rules of the association.”
“Then, let’s leave it at that for now.” Kalemah nodded, stood up, and walked outside.
The captain put away the soundproof tool and walked him to the door, saying, “Sir, take care. As soon as the ship is repaired, I will immediately inform you.”
“Make it quick. If it takes too long, I will take another vessel to leave,” Kalemah said indifferently.
“Absolutely!”
Kalemah went downstairs, with guards following closely behind as they left.
Exiting the tavern.
Two ladies soliciting customers subconsciously stepped back two paces.
Watching him get into the carriage and depart.
They only then carefully spat out and cursed quietly.
…
Zombie World.
“Your language is really quite interesting,” Glenda floated in the air, murmuring her admiration softly.
Although Glenda was a Ghost, her Intelligence attribute was not low.
Learning languages and scripts, she was quite fast.
Wu Heng had only taught her some basic things, and she was already able to utter some complete sentences.
Although her pronunciation was somewhat strange.
And it carried a certain intonation, like that of a Bard in a tavern.
“You learn quite fast. I estimate after a while, you’ll be able to watch movies with Xiao Xiao,” Wu Heng said.
While Xiao Xiao watched cartoons and movies, Glenda would also watch along.
But without understanding the language, she could only grasp the overall meaning.
She probably wanted to learn the language, related to her desire to watch movies.
Glenda nodded and replied, “Thank you, I really like your culture.”
“Hmm, if you like it, then you can get in touch more in the future,” Wu Heng said.
“Sure!”
Not long after, Xiao Xiao floated back from outside as well.
“Xiao Xiao!” Glenda called out with a smile.
Xiao Xiao turned her head, her semi-transparent face showing a hint of surprise, “Wow! Aunt Glenda can call my name now!” @@novelbin@@
Glenda nodded with a smile.
Wu Heng explained, “I taught her some basics; she can’t say too much yet.”
“Teach me, I want to learn that too!” Xiao Xiao said excitedly.
“Didn’t you say you didn’t want to study?” Wu Heng asked.
“This doesn’t count as studying; just tell me some simple things,” Xiao Xiao continued.
“Well, that’s fine, we’ll see next time,” Wu Heng said.
It was getting late.
Wu Heng let the two Ghosts return inside him, opened the boundary door, and returned to Gold and Silver Island.
…
He first went to see the Alchemy Room.
No corpse core potion was made yet; it looked like it would take some time.
Closing the door, he went downstairs.
Mini and Andre Willow were sitting in the living room chatting.
Wu Heng walked down, sat on the sofa, and the two women leaned on him, one on the left and one on the right.
Andre Willow said, “Master, the harbor has sent over the list of ship maintenance and docking fees. They charged a total of 3 Gold and 72 silver, of which 12 silver coins were for the docking fees of the ship.”
So expensive!
The pirate ship captured last time was battered beyond recognition.
After coming back, it definitely needed repairs and maintenance.
The money for repairs was one thing, but the docking fees were not small either.
He had just docked for a short while, and they charged 12 silver coins; a bit more, and he could buy a Strong crossbow.
“Didn’t I, the Deputy Steward, get any benefits?” Wu Heng said.
“Eh…, Miss Moya came to collect the money.”
“Moya, eh! Then never mind,” Wu Heng wrapped his arm around the two women, pondering, and said, “Right now the ships are in our hands, but they are of little use. We won’t need them for half a month, and they require maintenance.”
He currently had seven ships.
One cargo ship, the rest were six pirate ships.
He actually only needed two; the others were not necessary.
Forming a merchant group was impractical, and he had no plans to go out to sea frequently.
Keeping them docked in the harbor would only continuously consume money.
‘Sha Naila’ suggested to rent them out, but he did not find anyone willing to rent the ships.
“Give them to that Pirate Mistress. She’s always complaining that her ship is too small. Give her a few more ships, and she can go harass other pirates’ behinds,” Mini suggested from the side.
Wu Heng was taken aback, looking at her and saying, “Don’t learn from her, always using foul language.”
Mini hugged his waist and said, “No, I just repeated her exact words.”
Wu Heng nodded, his mind mulling over the matter.
Philippa was not of high level, and with one ship along with a few of his Skeletons to protect her, surely there wouldn’t be much problem.
If he really parted with several ships, she might find them difficult to control.
“She doesn’t need that many; I’ll ask other people later. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll just sell them directly,” he said.
The few sat in the living room chatting for a while.
Dinner was served, and they ate together before heading back to their rooms to rest.
…
The next day, the port.
On the cargo ship of the Starflower Merchant Group.
“Deputy Steward, we have a total of fifty thousand sets of leather armor, three thousand one-handed axes, three thousand longbows, one thousand strong crossbows, and five thousand bags of food, all here,” said the steward in charge of the cargo.
Wu Heng picked a few items to inspect and nodded, “Hmm, not bad, move them to the hold of my ship!”
The steward glanced at ‘Sha Naila’ nearby, who nodded her approval.
Workers were promptly called over to begin transferring the supplies.
The hold buzzed with activity, and Shanaela continued, “Do you need to order anything else?”
“Yes, I need to place more orders, striving to be the largest client on the island.”
Shanaela gave him a look and said, “I don’t know what you need all this for.”
Still, she handed over an order form to him.
Wu Heng took it, entering an adjacent cabin, with Shanaela and her butler following.
“Right, can I place an order for plate armor?”
As the level of the undead rose, their killing power increased as well.
Moreover, there was indeed quite a quantity of leather armor, and Wu Heng thought to order some sturdier protective gear.
“Yes,” “Sha Naila” turned and said, “Bring over the list of armors.”
Soon, someone brought over a list featuring various styles of armor.
Wu Heng glanced over and took a liking to a plain set of plate armor, leather on the inside with a layer of iron plate wrapped around the outside.
The price for a complete set was 92 silver coins.
Wu Heng began to fill in the order form, then handed it to her, “Twenty thousand sets of plate armor, twenty thousand one-handed axes, twenty thousand longbows, five thousand strong crossbows, thirty thousand bags of food.”
Shanaela frowned even more deeply.
Looking up at him again, she said, “Tell me, what exactly are you doing with all this?”
“I’m really buying it for someone else.”
“Are you involved in the conflicts over at Yeko?” Shanaela asked in a hushed tone.
“No,” Wu Heng continued, “Would you not sell to the Yeko Kingdom if they placed an order?”
“We would sell!”
“Then you talk as if it’s forbidden to sell,” Wu Heng leaned in a bit closer and whispered, “Really, I’m not involved in their mess. There’s a City Lord friend inland, he doesn’t have many channels to buy weapons; it’s more convenient on this side.”
The quantity ordered this time was several times more than before.
It was also because a large amount of gold was recently exchanged.
He could now make larger purchases, rather than going back and forth, which was more troublesome.
Shanaela took another look at him and said, “Now you truly are our biggest client.”
“Remember the discount you promised last time!”
Shanaela passed the order to the butler at her side and directly said, “A down payment of 30%, with an 8% discount on the price.”
“Yes, madam.”
The butler and the fleet steward began to calculate the price.
Soon, they had completed the tally, and Wu Heng paid the deposit and left the hold.
…
Once all the goods were moved to his own ship’s hold.
Wu Heng placed skeletons to guard the door, and opened the boundary door to start transferring supplies.
This time, the arrival of food supplies.
Resolved the issue of food shortage at the old factory market.
Now that the new food was delivered, the exchange could continue.
After everything was moved.
Wu Heng rode the carriage back to his residence, and again, he went towards the Zombie World.
…
Zombie World.
Wu Heng distributed new equipment to the Skeleton Army.
He also told ‘Qi Hancai’ that new food supplies had arrived.
Hearing this news, Qi Hancai also revealed a smile.
In this world, there was nothing more comforting than receiving ample food supplies.
After the skeletons were equipped with their new gear.
Wu Heng instructed Qi Hancai to prepare vehicles, as they were going to test the new bomb bay installed on the Skeleton Flying Dragons.
Qi Hancai nodded and immediately went down to prepare.
Before long, two military trucks were parked outside the back gate of the factory area.
Wu Heng sat in the co-driver’s seat.
The convoy, flanked by a throng of skeletons, left the old factory and headed towards an uncleaned main road.
…
Upon reaching the main road.
The sound of the Skeleton Army immediately drew the attention of the zombies.
Loud, ear-piercing roars quickly spread, as a swarming horde of the undead gathered in the middle of the road.
“Ready!” said Wang Chenggang and others.
Wu Heng nodded and directed Big Head Skeleton, “Have the Skeleton Flying Dragon drop bombs over the horde.”
The Skeleton Flying Dragon leapt into the air, soaring towards the area where the horde was concentrated.
Upon reaching the airspace above the horde, the bomb bay doors opened in an orderly fashion.
Black solid iron bullets fell in rows, like a cloud covering the sky.
Boom boom boom~!
The iron bombs rained down on the horde like a torrential downpour, the ground shook, and dust billowed up.
The charging horde was instantly engulfed in dust, disappearing in large swaths.
Wu Heng and the others stood behind the skeleton lines, observing the overall effect.
The current bomb bay was not like before when a bunch was thrown down all at once, but rather released in rows, covering a wider area along the path.
Therefore, the damage to the horde was even greater.
At this moment, the Skeleton Flying Dragon descended from the sky once again, and Wang Chenggang checked the leather-wrapped bomb bay.
“No problem, it’s quite sturdy!” he said.
“Good, then continue reloading and prepare to clear the second wave,” Wu Heng said.
Wang Chenggang and the others nodded, rapidly loading iron bombs into the bomb bay.
The Skeleton Flying Dragon took off again, following the advancing horde and dropping another round of iron bombs.
Boom boom boom~!
The sound of explosions rose again.
The ground trembled.
