I don't know how long it took, but Lao Bai and Abo Keluke finished donating the money and walked out of the luxurious building.
Apokluk put his arms around Lao Bai's shoulders and laughed loudly: "I didn't expect you to be very capable. No matter what kind of person you are, all you can do is be obedient and beg for mercy. You are really a talent. Oh.
No, I think using talent to describe you is still too unfair. You should be a genius!"
Being able to receive such praise from Apokoruk is of course due to Lao Bai's high proficiency in professional skills and his proficiency in application. Lao Bai said modestly: "What the heck, it's just a small skill that can't be put on the stage. It makes adults laugh."
Apokluk said: "All roads lead to the same destination. Being at the top of any industry is something to be proud of. Are you free recently?"
Lao Bai said: "Of course I'm free. If you have something to do, just ask me."
Apokoruk nodded and said with satisfaction: "It's too late today. You go back and rest first. Then report to me early tomorrow morning and serve as my personal guard for two days. How about you?"
Lao Bai immediately said respectfully: "It is an honor for me to serve as a guard for you."
Apokluk said: "Okay, come here tomorrow and don't let me down."
The two said goodbye, and Lao Bai returned to the hotel, needless to say more about how to train everyone.
Everyone was more concerned about Lao Bai's mission, because Cecilia was quite popular among everyone, so they all asked Lao Bai about the progress of the mission.
Lao Bai did not go into details, but just said that today went well. He completed a few simple tasks and gained Apokoluk's trust. He would be able to get closer to him tomorrow.
Cecilia's little body was all in Lao Bai's arms, her wet hair was sticky on Lao Bai's chest, and she said tiredly: "Master, you must help Cecilia find her mother.
Cecilia really misses her mother."
Lao Bai said: "Don't worry, I will try my best."
Hui Yu said from the side: "This task of yours must be difficult, right? Do you want us to help?"
Lao Bai thought about the direction of today's weird mission, and still felt that it was better not to alarm Hui Yu, so he said: "Apo Koruk asked me to be his guard. I can't take you there, so you should wait here first.
Well, I think it won’t be difficult.”
Hui Yu said: "Okay, I will wait here with Sera and the others for your return. You don't have to worry. It just so happens that I can practice the mage's skills with Elena when I have nothing to do, and the time will pass quickly. You have something to do
Just call me anytime."
Seeing Hui Yu's virtuous look, Lao Bai just felt very happy. He said: "I remember you also learned Portuguese. You can actually do some small tasks in the city. You don't have to waste time in the hotel to increase your reputation or something.
of time.”
Hui Yu said: "I carry the order to seize the city with me, so I always feel a little uneasy when I go out."
Lao Bai said: "It's okay, the city is a safe zone. You can also take Sera and the others on missions together. We are all in a team anyway."
Hui Yu shook his head and said: "Actually, I don't really like doing tasks. I'm very happy just chatting with Sera and the others."
Lao Bai smiled. Hui Yu's current thinking is still at the stage of casual players, without the sense of racing against time like professional players. However, Lao Bai is not prepared to ask her for more. The previous life Hui Yu only started a few years later.
She grew up step by step and finally became a high-level professional player. In this life, she married Lao Bai, and her growth rate was far faster than in the previous life. Lao Bai was already very content. Lao Bai had no reason to ask others to work as hard as him.
However, although Lao Bai did not want to be strict with Hui Yu, he still wanted to wake up some things that Hui Yu did not pay attention to. Lao Bai said: "Wife, it seems that I have never seen you practice professional skills since you came home. In fact, this
The professional level and skill proficiency in the game are also very important. You can practice more professional skills when you have time."
Hui Yu frowned and said: "I chose the wrong profession. It's not easy to practice at all. I originally thought that jewelry craftsmanship was a more advanced profession. When I took up the job, the NPC kept saying that jewelery craftsmen were rare and very rare.
It requires talent and so on. I thought I was very lucky at the time. After I became a professional, I realized that this profession is really not what ordinary players should do."
Lao Bai asked: "What's wrong?"
Hui Yu said: "It is difficult to purchase goods. Not only are the prices of gemstones very high, but they are also hard to buy and have been out of stock for many years. What is even more annoying is that there are constant fakes on the market. If you are not careful, you may even lose your capital.
I can’t take it back. At that time, I had saved up money for a long time to buy a batch of goods, but they turned out to be fake gemstones.”
"Hahaha." Lao Bai laughed, "The profession of jeweler is indeed relatively high-end. Many people are excited when they hear the word jewelry, thinking that this profession can make a lot of money, but they don't
You know, the game is balanced, and a profession that can earn high profits will be difficult to get started. If you don’t play well, it’s really not as good as a popular profession.”
Hui Yu said: "That's right. It's all because I was too ignorant at the time. I was attracted by the word "jewelry". Now that I think about it, it's really not necessary. Jewelers are indeed rare, but gems are even rarer. Hey, what do you think?
What career is better?"
Lao Bai said: "Actually, all professions are good if you play well. Personally, I still prefer professions in the food industry, such as bartenders. Wine is a very popular commodity, and high, middle and low-end wines exist. If you play well,
You can resell high-end wine, and the profit is quite large. If you don't do it well, you can still get a certain stable source of income by reselling low-end wine."
Hui Yu said: "Well, in this case, bartenders are very good, but jewelers are not interesting. People like me who can't play well will have no profit at all and can only lose money."
Lao Bai said: "Jewellery is a high-end profession. I think that if ordinary players play, it is really not appropriate to choose this profession. Instead, they should choose some common ordinary professions related to clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Everyone's life is different.
They do not need basic necessities, so these professions can provide a stable income. But if the target is a professional player, it would be better to choose some professions that can help in combat. For example, shipbuilder will speed up the repair of ships. Cannon casting
Technicians can improve the accuracy of the ship's artillery."
Hui Yu sighed and said: "It seems that I have indeed chosen the wrong career."
Lao Bai said: "You made the right choice. I think your career is very good."
Huiyu said: "Where can I get better?"
Lao Bai said: "The game is balanced, and the jewelry industry is difficult to start. But the profits are also extremely high. Gems are precious and are limited by supply, but they occupy very little space and are not restricted by the ship. Therefore, jewelry craftsmanship is a polarizing profession.
, if you play well and control the supply of goods, you will be very profitable. Think about it, how much is a shipload of gems worth? But if you play poorly, you will have nowhere to buy goods, or buy fake goods, and you will make no profit.
Career is equivalent to nothing."
Hui Yu sighed: "I'm the kind of person who doesn't play well."
Lao Bai said: "Don't say that. We are people who want to become professional players, so we will definitely be the best ones. Similarly, jewelry is one of the most profitable industries in the game. You, a jewelry maker, have never
In the long run, it will be very profitable."
Hui Yu smiled and said: "I find that you always have a lot of confidence in me. In fact, I don't play as well as you at all."
Lao Bai said: "I really believe in you, and Hui Yu, you are really worthy of my trust."
Hui Yu's face turned slightly red. He patted Lao Bai and said, "Stop saying that, it's so disgusting. Hey. In fact, that precious metal merchant Jie'er is also very bad. The gold mines in Shandong have made people go crazy. My place
I went to buy gold with her, but I couldn't get it. Her profession is the same as that of a jeweler, which involves the skill of slaying dragons. I really don't know why you persuaded her to choose this profession at that time."
Lao Bai smiled and said: "She said that your job as a jeweler sounded very cool. I can only recommend some similarly high-end professions. I'm afraid she won't be interested in any other suggestions."
Hui Yu said: "You will come up with blind ideas."
Lao Bai said: "Actually, I think your profession is quite suitable for us to be together. My ship is small. If you were in another profession and needed a lot of cargo for skills, I would really not be able to let you be with me. But you
Since you are a jeweler and the goods are very expensive, it is a good choice to stay on my ship and I will help you make money to buy jewels together. I believe that the jewels in one cabin will be enough for you to practice for a year."
Hui Yu said: "One cabin of jewelry? How can we use so many! For a jewelry maker, it is enough to have dozens of gems every month to practice related skills. It takes me a long time to make a gem ring. Unfortunately, there are so many gems on the market."
Goods are hard to grab, and often you can’t even buy a good gemstone.”
Lao Bai said: "Don't worry, I think we will have the supply soon."
Hui Yu said: "I'm not in a hurry, and I don't want to practice it. I'm already very happy with you. If you can't buy gems, you can't buy them. By the way, Lao Bai, you still have two city-capturing orders.
, I haven’t asked you which two cities you plan to capture?”
Lao Bai smiled and said: "Which two cities do you think is better to capture?"
Hui Yu said: "Listen to you, the canal has a city at one end and no city at the other end. So Panama will probably use one? We are going to America? But if we capture Panama, the canal may not be able to be opened."
Lao Bai said: "Whether it is opened or not, I want to seize Panama."
Hui Yu frowned and said: "Then after taking Panama, there is still an order to seize the city. We also seize the city on the main transportation road?"
Lao Bai said: "Do you have any good suggestions?"
Hui Yu said: "I heard that the Strait of Malacca is more important. Do you want to capture a city there?"
Lao Bai said: "It's too far. Now I have offended Espinoza in East Africa, Wooding in West Asia, and Preila in Southeast Asia. It is really troublesome to go there and capture the city. Moreover, Malacca is a big city, and I capture it."
No, Singapore is still a tidal flat, and no one is doing the task of building a city. We cannot get these two places, so we occupy a city elsewhere. The foundation is not as good as Malacca, the location is not as good as Singapore, and it will not be able to develop in these two places in the future."
Hui Yu added: "Then where else is the traffic artery? In fact, Istanbul's location is quite good, but it's a pity that the city is too big and we can't occupy it."
Lao Bai said: "If I can capture Istanbul, I will capture Istanbul, Seville, Lisbon, and London..."
"Haha, stop dreaming." Hui Yu smiled, thought for a while and said: "I heard that there are almost no decent cities in the United States in the game. We have to go to America anyway, so why not find a place in the United States?
Well, like New York, New Orleans, etc. I heard that the Americans have launched the epic mission of building New Amsterdam, and the city has already started to be built, why don’t we take this opportunity to seize it?”
Lao Bai smiled and said: "This is a good idea, but the Americans have spent so much effort to launch the epic mission. We took over the city just after it started. It would offend American players too much, and it would be easy for them to be attacked by a group.
.If there is a conflict with the Americans on American territory, life will be really difficult. I think it is better to seize an NPC city that already exists in the game."
Hui Yu nodded and then asked: "So, which city is your plan to capture?"
Lao Bai sighed: "There are too many cities I want, but there are too few city seizure orders, and it is difficult for me to choose. Sometimes, I always wonder if it would be better to go back to China and build a city. After all, our Chamber of Commerce
Most of the people are in China. Huiyu, do you think I should return to my country and occupy a city?"
Hui Yu said: "You can do whatever you want, I will listen to you in everything, but isn't it farther back home? There are so many enemies on the road, and the ones you offended are all overlords. I think we should not go back."
Lao Bai said: "I also think we shouldn't go back."
Hui Yu said: "I think you must have already made up your mind, otherwise you wouldn't have discussed this matter with me all the time. Don't try to sell it to me, let's talk about it."
Lao Bai said: "Hui Yu, what kind of goods do you need to purchase for your career as a jeweler?"
Hui Yu said: "All gems are fine, but they are not easy to buy. Leveling up mainly relies on pearls. Of course, pearls are also hard to buy. The best gems are the four famous gems in the world, ruby, sapphire, emerald, and
Diamonds. However, the four famous gemstones are too difficult to obtain and have been out of stock in China. When I was in China, Jie'er and I went to Hainan to look for sapphires, but we never bought them. I heard that Sri Lanka is rich in rubies and sapphires, but they have to go.
When I went to South Asia, I had just started playing games and was not familiar with maps."
Lao Bai said: "There seems to be no city in the Mediterranean area that is rich in gems. It is not easy for us to purchase goods nearby."
Hui Yu said: "If you can't enter, just don't enter. Hey, you haven't told me which city you want to capture?"
Lao Bai said: "I want to capture Cape Town."
"Cape Town? A city in South Africa?"
Lao Bai nodded and said: "Yes, Cape Town is a small town in the game and has not yet developed. But the future there is limitless. Jie'er is a precious metal merchant, and 60% of the world's gold is in South Africa.
.South Africa is also a place rich in diamond resources. If you occupy this city, I think you will no longer be short of supply. I can directly use city funds to let city businessmen stay when they encounter good diamonds. Priority
