Chapter 371: Xenomorph

At noon, Alan took Sean to the Sea Restaurant in Xiangdi Bora. This is a special restaurant where the owner of the restaurant is chained together like several medium-sized sails and fastened to the bay to form a floating platform. Some of the redundant components on board were removed to keep the site spacious enough. After putting up a covered balcony and other necessary facilities, it becomes such a unique restaurant on the sea.

The underside of the restaurant, the belly of the boat, has even been converted into elegant rooms to cater to the special needs of some guests.

Roger booked a nice spot in the restaurant, which overlooked most of the Silver Gull Strait. When the sea breeze rises, the water platform will rise and fall slightly with the waves, and when you close your eyes, you will almost suspect that you are in the blue sky and blue sea.

When Alan arrived, Roger as the initiator had already arrived. He greeted him with a smile: "Long time no see, Mr. Allen, you look good." ”

"Mr. Roger is also in good spirits." Alan replied.

After the two took their seats, they chatted for a while, and then guests came one after another. Following Allen, Jessica, the young president of the Lily Chamber of Commerce, arrived. Then there are two elderly people, just by looking at their dresses, you know that there is a big deal. Seeing that all the guests had arrived, Roger snapped his fingers. In less than a minute, a variety of exquisite dishes, seafood sashimi with local specialties and the restaurant's own fruit wine are presented and a large table is filled.

After all the dishes were served, Roger stood up, raised his glass and said, "Come, everyone here today is my friend." Today, we are all together, and it is a rare opportunity. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to this young gentleman. ”

He looked at Alan and smiled, "I believe everyone here has received the news, that's right." Sir Maude of Stormtown has fallen, and it is none other than our young and promising Mr. Allen who is now running Stormtown in place of Mr. Sir. I mention yΓ¬, everyone toasts him. ”

Several people raised their glasses, and Alan would not shirk it, and drank it to the end.

Next, Roger focused on introducing the two old men to Alan. They sat on Jessica's left and right sides, with Rhys, who was ruddy-skinned and always smiling, with half-closed eyes. To Allen's surprise, this old man, who looked kind, was the boss of three mercenary groups. The Ranger Regiment pulled by the TongguΓ² Adventurers Association is one of the mercenary groups under Rhys.

In addition to the Ranger Regiment, Rhys also has a Trident that specializes in naval warfare, as well as a Hundred Combat Corps that is employed by major merchant groups all year round to protect them.

Rhys smiled as he waited for Roger to introduce himself, then turned a ring with emerald inlays on his finger and said, "Hansen mentioned you to me when he returned, and in his words, your tactics for taking Storm City were brilliant. ”

"Passing the prize." Alan said modestly.

Roger introduced another old man named Fellowes as the vice president of the Iron Banner Chamber of Commerce. The Iron Banner Chamber of Commerce is engaged in the trading of weapons and equipment, as well as raw materials for weapons such as copper and iron. Among them, guns are their main livelihood. Fellowes was very thin, his skinny face was almost all against the bones, he didn't like to smile, he looked like a freshly unearthed mummy.

To Roger's introduction, Fellowes just nodded, but did not say anything more.

Finally, when it came to Jessica, Roger smiled and said, "As for this beautiful lady, I don't think I need to bother to talk about it, you two have already known each other." ”

"We at the Lily Chamber of Commerce are happy to work with people like Mr. Allen, and I'm sure we'll have a great time working together." Jessica raised her glass and said happily.

"Come, eat the vegetables." Roger did not forget his role as host and pushed the mood at the table at the right time.

After tasting a few local seafoods, Roger's voice rang in Alan's ears.

"Now that Storm City has basically stabilized, I wonder what Mr. Allen's plans are next?"

Finally getting to the point, Alan thought. He glanced at everyone in the seat, including the expressionless Fellowes, all of whom had subtle expressions, apparently wondering what Allen's answer was.

Alan smiled faintly and said, "Storm City's copper and iron minerals are not divided into two kinds of minerals. Those two veins can produce a large amount of equipment raw materials every year. I'm not going to waste it, right now, a weapons workshop is being built. I intend to gather the blacksmiths of the two cities and devote the next few days to the development and production of weapons and equipment. ”

"Don't know which side to lean towards?" Rhys straightened up slightly and asked.

"When the workshop was built, it was more inclined to equipment such as swords and armor, after all, they were in high demand. But my ultimate goal is to have the ability to produce my own firearms and equipment. For example, a burst of fire/gun ......"

The atmosphere at the table was noticeably congrozen.

"Repeating fire/guns?" Fellowes sneered: "After all, Mr. Allen is a layman, so naturally he doesn't know that even the imperial workshop of the empire can't produce repeating fire/guns at present. It is not possible to apply the principle of a repeating gun to a firearm, and for every doubling of the size of the same component, the accuracy requirements need to be increased tenfold. The ensuing problems, such as rifling, ammunition, etc., are difficult to overcome. If the repeating fire/gun is really so easy to produce, the main army of the empire will not use the flintlock fire/gun now. ”

Alan shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "If you can't make it now, it doesn't mean that you won't be able to do it in the future." It's like a flintlock/gun, if it had been put a hundred years ago, people at that time probably didn't think that they could make such a weapon, right? ”

Fellowes was so speechless that he had to snort and silently pick up his glass and drink himself.

Roger exchanged glances with Rhys, who grinned and said, "Not to mention whether or not we can produce bursts of fire/guns, Mr. Allen is impressive just because of this kind of enterprising mind." Although our mercenary group now has a fire/gun configuration, it is still mainly cold weapons. If the Storm City's weapons workshop has the ability to mass-produce sword-like equipment, we hope that Mr. Allen can sell it to us at a relatively good price. ”

"Of course." Alan Dao.

Roger smiled and said: "The Iron Flag Chamber of Commerce mainly sells equipment, and if you want to come, you don't have to go far and far, you can place an order directly in the workshop in Storm City." ”

Hearing this, Fellowes responded coldly: "That may not be possible, our Chamber of Commerce has a long-term cooperation agreement with several weapons dealers, and we can't just say that it will be exchanged." ”

"It's a pity that our Lily Chamber of Commerce doesn't do equipment business, but the fabric provided by Mr. Allen last time sold well, and I hope that Sur City can continue to develop new fabrics."

"Mr. Sean will follow up on that." "And I have other ideas when it comes to fabric production," Allen said. If you can cooperate with the Lily Chamber of Commerce, you can introduce excellent design talents. If a textile factory is upgraded to a garment factory, will the profit from selling ready-made garments directly to various places be higher than that of simple fabrics? ”

Jessica's eyes lit up and she nodded, "I also had such thoughts, it seems that I can have a good talk with Mr. Sean later." ”

She did things simply, and made an appointment with Sean right away. Alan looked at Roger at this time and said: "Mr. Roger's business group should go to a lot of places, I don't know where this Yinou Strait leads, can Mr. Roger tell me about it." ”

Roger smiled meaningfully, the former weapon workshop, and now he inquired about the world beyond the Silver Channel. Eren has revealed a lot of information, which shows that the young knight in front of him is not satisfied with more than dominance in this frontier land. He looked at the bay outside the restaurant and said, "From the Silver Gull Strait, after a month's journey by water, we can reach the Ark Harbor. ”

"Ark Harbor?"

"Yes, it's also a port city. Entering the Ark Harbor is equivalent to entering the interior of the Empire's territory. Ark Harbor is famous for its shipmaking industry, and most of the sailboats and hybrid boats we use come from Ark Harbor. A tin ship is now being developed there, with a stronger hull that can withstand wind and waves, allowing our adventurers to venture deeper into the world. Speaking of this, Roger looked leisurely and fascinated.

"If you don't take the waterway, you can pass through the south of Violet Harbor, you can go north from the wild highlands, and you can also reach the hinterland of the empire." Rhys added, "It's just that the Wild Heights are not peaceful, and the place is full of cliffs, barren forests, and evil beasts, full of blood and chaos. Compared to it, the Bloodrock Wasteland is simply pediatric. Very few people are willing to cross the Wild Highlands, even though it only takes about two weeks to cross the Highlands. But people prefer to choose waterways, after all, they are safer. And if you're lucky, you'll also meet Naga fish-people at sea, which are all beautiful and sexy aliens. ”

Alan was drinking fruit wine when he suddenly heard the word Naga Fishman and almost squirted the wine. He wondered if he had misheard, and asked, "Could it be that the fish-people you are talking about are all women?" The kind of fish-man whose body is covered in purple soft scales and has a boneless body, right? ”

Rhys laughed, "Yes, that's right. It seems that Mr. Allen has also heard of the beauty of the Naga Fishman, an adult fishman who can sell for up to 100,000 gold coins in the Empire. Of course, no man would be willing to give her up to Fishman. ”

So several men at the table laughed, and even Fellowes had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. Alan was laughing, but he was shocked. The so-called Naga fish man in the mouth of Ris is clearly the soft bone Naga he once saw at a slave auction in Babylon. It's just that the Naga have always lived on one of the planets in the Rudson Star Field, so why do there are Naga people in this world?

Originally, Alan thought that the aborigines of this world were human beings, but until now, he knew that in addition to humans, there were other intelligent life on this planet. This strange planet is slowly revealing its mysterious veil to Allen. R1058
