Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 141 Sending Away the "Female Goddess of Wealth"

At this point in the conversation, the ransom had been set.

Next, Karame took the initiative to ask for the redemption of all the sailors and warships, including the facilities, according to the negotiated terms.

Only Yuhun only requires the redemption of less than 60%, and those are some of the more advanced ones.

After hearing the other party's request, Su Wang agreed without any hesitation.

Seeing Su Wang agree so generously, Karame didn't know whether to feel sad or relieved.

The heartbreaking thing is that it is clearly something that belongs to our own dock, but we still have to spend a huge price to redeem it.

Fortunately,
After spending a huge amount of money to redeem these captains, they had to spend an equally huge amount of resources to train new warships.

Now we can redeem all warships and equipment at half price, which reduces some of the resource losses and speeds up the recovery of combat power.

After both parties calculated the funds to be paid, Lord Karame planned to request to leave.

After suffering such a huge loss this time, she didn't want to stay in Fool's Wharf for even a second longer.

"Lord Su Wang, now that the matter has been settled, please draft the bounty mission now."

"After I accepted the mission, I will temporarily take the captain back. The required ransom will be delivered to your dock in a few days."

Su Wang naturally heard that Lord Karame was eager to leave, and immediately spoke to comfort him.

"Why is Lord Karame so anxious to leave?"

"I have a business I'd like to discuss with you. Are you willing to listen?"

Karame responded coldly upon hearing this.

"I'm sorry, but I'm no longer in the mood to discuss business with you, Lord Su Wang."

Lord Karame had already rejected the deal before even hearing the details of the deal.

Su Wang said slowly.

"What if the business I'm talking about can help your terminal restore its fleet with fewer resources?"

"After all, your dock fleet suffered a significant loss this time.
If we fail to recover in time and encounter a crisis, I will inevitably feel uneasy if something goes wrong."

When Lord Karame heard this, he almost couldn't suppress the resentment he had been suppressing.

Isn't it you, the Fool's Wharf, who caused the current situation at Red Sting Wharf?

Now they are worried that Hongzhe Wharf’s strength cannot be restored and something will go wrong if it encounters danger?

This kind of crying wolf behavior really made Karame very angry.

But I heard the other party say that the fleet's strength could be restored with fewer resources.

No matter how angry Karame was, he even wanted to send a fleet to kill the person in front of him with a single cannon.

For now, she could only suppress her anger and asked back as calmly as possible.

"Oh? Lord Su Wang, why don't you tell me about it?"

Su Wang chuckled when he saw Karame's attitude change.

"Believe me, you won't suffer any loss in this business, or rather, I should be the one who suffers the loss."

Karame couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he heard this.

Are you willing to suffer a loss?

From the beginning of the conversation, she was the one who suffered the most. She didn't believe a single word Su Wang said.

However, the words she heard next made her confused.

"Lord Karame,

"I believe that after redeeming the captain this time, you will spend resources to rebuild the warships and some necessary facilities, right?" Su Wang added.

Karame nodded naturally. There was no need to hide this kind of issue. It was something known to both parties.

She also didn't know why the young lord in front of her asked this unnecessary question.

After all, he wouldn't spend resources to help me rebuild my fleet out of kindness, right?

But what she didn't expect was that the young lord's next words were exactly what she thought was impossible.

"Since Lord Karame is planning to rebuild his fleet, I'm willing to sell him a batch of warships and equipment at a low price."

"The price isn't high. I'll sell it to you at two-thirds of the cost. Are you willing to buy it?"

After hearing this, Karame immediately wondered if the young lord in front of him was crazy, and hurriedly confirmed it.

"Lord Su Wang...are you planning to sell me the warships and equipment at two-thirds of the cost?"

Su Wang replied with an unchanged smile.

"Did I not speak clearly enough?"

"It's just as you thought.
I can sell you 1050 medium-sized and 300 large warships at two-thirds of the cost, all fully equipped with guns, radar, and external armor."

"As long as you buy these warships, I believe it will be enough for Hongzhe Wharf to replenish its fleet to its original size."

"This can be considered as a gesture of care from Fool's Wharf to Red Sting Wharf. Lord Karame won't refuse, right?"

Although on the surface, this business undoubtedly caused a loss for Fool's Wharf in terms of subsidized resources.

But looking at it from another perspective, these ordinary warships are already obsolete to Fool's Wharf.

The obsolete weapons can be sold in exchange for materials to produce a new generation of weapons, so Fool's Wharf is not the one that suffers a loss.

Even when saying this,
Su Wang felt in his heart that he might have been too harsh in plucking the wool from a sheep.

Including the ransom that the other party needs to pay,

In addition, the Horned Eel Family needs to replace their ships and purchase supplies, which may drain the Red Sting Wharf of its resources.

Unfortunately, a large number of ordinary warships and equipment were needed in a short period of time, which led to the loss of a large number of ships at Hongzhe Wharf.

Therefore, even if Karame's sheepskin was peeled off completely, Su Wang would still have to pull it off.

However, Lord Karame, who was being treated as a wool production machine, had no idea that he had become a waste disposal plant. Hearing that he could buy a fully equipped and operational warship at two-thirds the price, Karame was undoubtedly very tempted.

Among the captains redeemed this time, in addition to some redeemed warships, nearly 5 captains' original warships had sunk.

Even if they are redeemed now, they will have to be equipped with new warships and equipment, which will be a huge waste of materials.

However, this young lord,
They were actually willing to sell a large number of warships and equipment to her at two-thirds of the price. It was really a thoughtful timely relief.

This made Karame wonder what the young lord in front of him was trying to do.

If she were younger, she would be in her prime.

Karame would suspect that the young lord in front of her wanted to please her and make up for the conflict between the two sides.

But now there is a pretty beauty standing behind this young lord, so it is naturally impossible for him to fall in love with such an old and ugly woman.

After thinking about it for a long time, Karame couldn't figure out the other party's intention.

However, this business is indeed just as the other party said, it is only beneficial to Hongzhe Wharf and has no harm.

"I am indeed very tempted by this deal. If you are not teasing me, Karame would like to thank Lord Suwang for his kindness."

Su Wang was overjoyed when he heard Karame agreed.

Even Tia, who was standing behind him, showed a hint of joy on her face.

After all, the warships and equipment traded this time were all to be eliminated and replaced by the Horned Eel Family.

The deal negotiated by the captain will undoubtedly allow the Horned Eel family to recover and successfully replace their existing warships at a very low cost.

Su Wang also quickly confirmed it at this time.

"Since Lord Karame has agreed, I will prepare two tasks. One is the redemption task, and the other is the warship transaction."

"This time, the captain and the redeemed warship can be taken away first. As for the equipment, I will return it to you after the ransom is delivered. How do you do that?"

Karame nodded immediately after hearing this.

"Okay, everything will be done according to what you said, Lord Su Wang."

Su Wang immediately drafted two dock tasks according to the negotiated conditions and designated Hongzhe Wharf to receive them.

One is the redemption mission,
Hongzhe Wharf was required to pay a total of 7777 million fish coins and other three basic materials, and an additional 3450 million fish coins.

In terms of black iron fish materials, there are 1327 million pieces of skin and scales, 631 million pieces of tendons and glue.

The skin and scales of silverfish are worth 2485 million each, and the tendons and glue are worth 1210 million each.

The skin and scales of golden fish are worth 280 million each, and the tendons and glue are worth 140 million each.

This is just the ransom that Red Sting Wharf needs to pay.

The amount of supplies the Horned Eel family needed to pay to replace their warships was not much less than the ransom.

...

When Karame saw the amount of supplies needed for the two tasks, although he had expected it, he still felt heartbroken.

In order to pay for these two dock tasks, the Hongzhe Dock would have to empty out all the supplies that had been accumulated for a long time.

But she had to pay for this resource.
Otherwise, without these ships and fleets, Hongshi Wharf would be no different from existing in name only.

Until this moment, she still couldn't figure it out.

Why is the fleet in the hands of the young dock lord in front of me

A fleet that can fight against a fleet that is several times larger than its opponent can not only win a decisive victory, but also make it impossible for the opponent to escape.

After choosing to take on the two tasks, Karame's face looked extremely dejected, and even his voice became hoarse.

"Lord Su Wang, the mission has been accepted. I'm afraid all these supplies cannot be delivered in the short term. I will deliver them in batches within a month."

"I hope your terminal can be a little more lenient on this point."

Su Wang nodded upon hearing this.

"I understand that. As long as the full amount can be shipped within a month, that's all that matters."

The amount of supplies was too large, and Su Wang also understood that it was impossible for the other party to take it out at once.

It’s already pretty good if we can complete the delivery within a month.

It's just a matter of relaxing a little bit of time, Su Wang can afford to wait.

Afterwards, he personally accompanied the "female god of wealth" to see her off and watched the other fleet leave the dock.

After the other fleet left, Cao Ge approached Su Wang with a shy face.

"Boss, what did you talk about with this lady?"

"I used my talent-spotting eyes to check her out, and she's actually a gold-level crew member."

"Hehe... she's quite pretty."

Su Wang glanced over with a strange look on his face when he heard that.

Thinking that another crew member under Cao Ge was also at an age where he still had charm, Su Wang also saw through his fantasy.

Good man, he has set his sights on a dock lord.

Su Wang immediately joked.

"This is the dock lord. She doesn't like you right now."

"But if you can help me increase the power of Fool's Wharf several times, perhaps with your status as the deputy wharf commander, I can help you with some connections."

Cao Ge's thoughts were revealed, and he smiled awkwardly.

"Boss, you said this!"
