System prompt: Do you want to accept the mission - to help Claude find out the pirates' conspiracy?
Naturally, Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian accepted this kind of task without hesitation.
Chu Nan looked at the mission content and it showed: Current mission clues, heading to the volcanic island.
After watching the two of them take over the task, Claude said happily: "Then you should be careful on the road and go back early. I'll wait for your good news."
The two of them nodded. After coming out of the adventure union headquarters, Chu Nan said to Huo Wu Jiutian: "You can go to the volcanic island from East Sea View. By coincidence, I have a pirate ship that I just captured. You can go with me.
, but before that, I want to make a batch of cannonballs first." The 50 cannonballs that come with the Maple Leaf are obviously not enough.
"Then I'll wait for you." Huo Wu Jiutian said.
"Well... it may take a while, because I still need to practice intermediate blacksmithing, but it shouldn't take long. Anyway, what I want is basically a lot of junk drawings and junk materials."
"In that case, I'll go take care of the guild affairs first."
Nine days after temporarily bidding farewell to Fire Dance, Chu Nan began to buy D-level forging blueprints on the street, and then purchased a large amount of materials according to the requirements of the blueprints. These things were basically sold by low-level players, and the prices were very cheap. Chu Nan
Nan only spent about 10 gold to acquire all the required materials. Upgrading to the intermediate blacksmithing skill only requires 100 proficiency, which means successfully forging whiteboard equipment 100 times. It only took Chu Nan half an hour to succeed.
nailed it.
After mastering the intermediate forging skills, Chu Nan began to make black gunpowder and cannonballs. The ingredients for making black gunpowder are very common. Saltpeter powder, charcoal, and sulfur are all very easy to buy and the price is quite cheap. Saltpeter powder can also be used to make the oil of hell.
One of the materials, there are a lot of these things on the street.
Based on Chu Nan's current advanced alchemy skills, the success rate of making black gunpowder is quite good, reaching about 70% overall. On average, the production cost of a piece of black gunpowder is only about 3 silver coins.
After producing a considerable amount of black gunpowder, Chu Nan began to make cannonballs. The main material of the cannonballs besides black gunpowder was iron ingots. This thing is also a bargain. It is to refine ordinary iron ore using the life skill smelting technique.
You can get iron ingots.
After some forging, Chu Nan successfully made the first cannonball. However, the success rate of intermediate forging skills in making cannonballs is only about half, so the cost is relatively high. But this is not a problem. Compared with others
It is necessary to make a large amount of blue equipment to improve the proficiency of intermediate blacksmithing. Chu Nan has already made a lot of money, because no matter what, the cost of making a cannon shell is much lower than that of a blue equipment.
When Chu Nan successfully produced 200 cannonballs, he sent a flying pigeon letter to Huo Wu Jiutian to inform her that it was time to leave.
Returning to East Seaview, the first thing that greeted Chu Nan was the system prompt about the loss statistics of East Seaview. It was just over 100 gold. Compared with the town entry fees and taxes brought by the huge increase in the number of people in the past two days, 100 gold was just a drop.
, Chu Nan didn’t take it to heart.
Walking on the street of Donghaiwang, Chu Nan suddenly heard someone shouting: "The cannonballs are for sale, the cannonballs are for sale, 35 silver coins each, there are 60 left, please ask some boss to eat them all at once!"
Hold!
Chu Nan's eyes widened quickly, and he also discovered that there was more than one stall selling cannonballs like this, and the prices were all around 35 silver coins.
How is it possible? Where did these guys get their cannonballs? Chu Nan also wanted to continue to make a fortune by making black powder and cannonballs, but he didn't expect that someone would get there first, and there would be so many people selling them.
Cannonballs!
Then, he suddenly understood the origin of these cannonballs. They were taken from captured pirate ships. The cannons could not be dismantled and sold, but the gunpowder and cannonballs could.
Oh my god, what a bunch of profiteers! Chu Nan cursed secretly in his heart.
Although these cannonballs that come directly from pirate ships will have a certain impact on Chu Nan's money-making plans, fortunately, the production cost of the cannonballs in Chu Nan's hand is much lower, averaging about 15 silver coins. Once upgraded to a high-level
After the forging operation, the cost will be further reduced, and the profit will still be very high.
Chu Nan originally wanted to find Caroline, but now the entire Eastwatch is full of gunfire and crowds of people. Where can she find Caroline? After all, Caroline is different from ordinary NPCs who stand at fixed points.
There, she had a very free range of activities, and she might be fighting pirates on that pirate ship right now.
After arriving at the dock with Huo Wu for nine days, Chu Nan looked at the sea in the distance. Dozens of pirate ships were swimming around. The sound of cannons was continuous, and some fell directly on the ships, exploding into pieces of wood chips, or
Falling into the water, causing high splashes. Since the player's ship was also captured from pirates, it looks exactly like a pirate ship. If you don't look carefully at the people on it, you will easily be mistaken for a pirate. As a result, if you look at it from a distance, it just looks like a pirate.
It was like a group of pirates shelling each other, the scene was extremely chaotic.
Chu Nan quickly jumped on the Maple Leaf docked at the dock, and then greeted Huo Wu Jiutian to come up.
"Just the two of us?" Huo Wu Jiutian looked at the entire empty pirate ship in surprise.
"How is that possible?" Chu Nan chuckled. He pointed in the direction he came from and saw about ten people running towards him from a distance.
Recruiting NPC crew requires money, and it’s quite a scam. An ordinary sailor’s daily salary is 5 silver coins, which is okay. The key problem is that if you die in battle, you need to pay a pension of 3 gold coins. This is quite a scam. If you and
When pirates start a war, no one will die. So since there are free coolies from the guild available, it’s natural to use free coolies. This is Chu Nan’s principle!
When making cannonballs in Glory City, Chu Nan sent flying pigeon letters to many guild members. When those people heard that they could have sex for free, they came over one after another, and several of them were still in Eastwatch.
.
"Vice president, is it really possible to shoot for free? How many shells are there on the ship? Is it enough for 15 of us?" Liuyi Tianzhi, who ran over, asked excitedly.
"Exactly 250!"
Little Wheel said speechlessly: "This amount... you must have done it on purpose..."
"Hurry up and get on the boat. By the way, don't fire randomly without my order!" Chu Nan solemnly reminded all the people.
Little Wheel, Liuyi Tianzhi and others boarded the Maple Leaf one after another. After uploading, Little Wheel immediately shouted out: "You are so narcissistic that you named the Maple Leaf. Why don't you name it Chu Nan?"
Where’s the number!”
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed.
"Little Wheel, if you keep talking too much, you will be disqualified from having sex later! Are people already here?"
