"The cost of freight alone is as much as 8,000 gold coins, did they say what kind of goods they went on this trip?"

Lu Chen is still easy to look at now, only the core high-level knows about it, and everyone else thinks that Lu Chen has gone to sea with 20,000 people. But what they didn't know was that those 20,000 people were now fighting in the wolf clan's unopened [Magic Material Islands] for several days.

For the current Lu Chen, under the transfer, hiding 20,000 people is already too big a problem.

"No, but they said they had obtained a nautical chart and could go north to the Kingdom of the Ram. It is said that there are safe sea routes on the chart, and those routes are only necessary to deal with violent storms and rains, and the gold-class warships are enough to defend against them.

They said that this was the first time to work together, and if it was successful, it would be possible to work together for a long time in the future. But... I consulted with the three deputy ministers and several leaders of the business department, and we agreed that this was a big business. After I approached them, the customers also allowed us to take a stake in the trade route, but the deposit for the vessel could not be collected. ”

The Minister of Freight was quite tempted, if he let 20 gold-class warships take this trade route in the future, he could earn more than 10,000 gold coins in three or four days on a trip. This income alone is enough for the wolf clan to feed an elite-level army of three thousand people.

"Oh?" Lu Chen originally felt that something was wrong, if those customers were here to plot against his wolf clan, even if all the 20 warships were robbed or destroyed, the collateral worth 10 million deposits that the customers mortgaged in the wolf clan would directly belong to Lu Chen.

This is not a loss for the wolf clan at all, with this money, Lu Chen can build another 30 golden warships. Moreover, the imitation will drop by one level, even if the golden battleship is taken away by the enemy, the most they imitate will not exceed the silver level, and it will not pose a threat to Lu Chen.

But when the Minister of Freight mentioned that he would invest in this trade expedition with the deposit of the warship, Lu Chen's mind flashed, maybe this was the reason why the mysterious fleet appeared outside the sea area of Linhai City!

"Any questions?" Seeing that Lu Chen had no follow-up, the Minister of Freight asked suspiciously.

Lu Chen shook his head, "I also know about the existence of nautical charts, and I used NPC connections to find out about this a few days ago. So I'm now thinking about whether to take a stake in this trade route, or whether we can open up our own trade route in the future. ”

Of course, this was an excuse, because Lu Chen couldn't be sure if the head of the freight department in front of him was bribed by the enemy. It is difficult to buy a legion to rebel against Lu Chen, but if you buy a person to secretly make a ghost, it is nothing more than a matter of hundreds of thousands of yuan or two or three million.

As the Minister of Freight Affairs just said, he felt that this trade route was profitable, so he specially communicated with the customer about the matter of buying shares, which is normal but not normal.

It is said that it is normal because this is what the head of the freight department should pay attention to, and if it succeeds in the end, he also has a performance bonus. said that it was not normal, purely because Lu Chen was already suspicious and felt that it was too much of a coincidence.

It was as if the enemy was about to kill Lu Chen, and Lu Chen's subordinate in charge of sales suddenly asked the enemy, "I sell knives, do you buy them?" ”。 Although this was within the scope of his duties, how could Lu Chen not doubt it?

"Let me think about it, are those customers in a hurry?" Lu Chen glanced at the head of the freight department as usual, but he was experienced in games, but he was not good at psychology. He didn't understand anything like micro-expressions on the TV series.

"Hmm... In a hurry, they have already contacted the supplier and asked us to allocate 20 warships within two days. They started to contact each other last week about this matter, and with my arrangement in the next few days, I will be able to put together the fleet about tomorrow. ”

The Minister of Freight replied truthfully, and Lu Chen also saw the arrangement of the ship's schedule, and the freight dispatch within the wolf clan no longer used gold-class battleships, all of which were transported by silver-class catamarans. Many of the goods that the customer originally needed to be transported by the Golden Battleship were divided into more than a dozen parts and transported by the Silver-class catamaran. It's just that in terms of the escort troops, the wolf clan has allocated an extra batch for free.

This minister is also capable, and after some deployment, not only is the cargo order still in order, but even the merchants who originally hired gold-class battleships, but now have silver-class catamarans, do not have much complaint.

"Well, let me think about it, I'll get back to you in two hours." Lu Chen waved his hand to let the head of the freight department go out and continue to work, and he pondered.

If this person has been bought, then the enemy must also know that he Lu Chen did not go to sea and has already returned early. With him in charge, they dare to make a mistake, which shows that the mysterious fleet is really very powerful, powerful enough to annihilate a fleet composed of 20 gold-class warships!

The wolf clan now only has a total of 30 gold-class warships, and the enhanced version of the golden battleship requires the wolf clan's shipyard to build one for 10 days to be completely built. If these 20 warships were destroyed in one go, it would also be a big loss to the wolf clan, and it would even cause the business volume of the freight department to shrink by more than half!

But now the wolf clan is building 18 fortresses at the same time, and the capital chain is actually tight. Once there are problems in several major businesses, the construction period of the fortress is far away, and there may be a bad chain reaction.

"You want to destroy my fleet... You have to have that too! Lu Chen's eyes were slightly cold, in order to lure the snake out of the hole, he finally chose a compromise method.

The customer originally said that the wolf clan could put a deposit of 10 million into 20% of the shares of this business route. But Lu Chen chose to compromise and reduced the deposit of the battleship by half, and only needed a 10% stake in the trade route.

This situation was beyond the expectations of Marshal Wild and Lu Fei, the two looked at each other after getting the news, and in the end, Marshal Wild couldn't hold back, "Brother Fei, do you say that this poisonous wolf is suspicious?" ”

According to their careful analysis and multiple sets of plans, the wolf clan will take the bait at this point. A pure waterway, a trade route without any barriers, is a steady stream of money for the wolf clan.

If Lu Chen is not enough, it is almost the same if he wants to ask for a few more percent, this is the judgment of the two wild marshals. But Lu Chen did the opposite, which made them uneasy.

"Not necessarily. After all, the poisonous wolf went to sea, maybe he didn't have time to deal with these things, and left it to the Yuwen Demon God to deal with it with all his powers. Yuwen Demon God is a person who tends to be steady, which is different from the poisonous wolf's adventurous nature. ”

Lu Fei shook his head, the head of the freight department was actually tricked by a few businessmen arranged by him in his speech, and successfully led the conversation to the shares, not the rebellion that Lu Chen suspected. Therefore, Lu Fei and the others didn't know that the chairman of the wolf clan who went to sea to open up the wasteland and the 20,000 army were all ambushed in the coastal sea.
