"It's not far. Do you see it over there?" Chef Lao Wang stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the port: "In Titanic Port, Lord Huodu's shipyard, there is plenty of this 'alloy steel'. As long as you can get me a piece of it.
There were scraps, so I just used them to make a kitchen knife."
"make a deal!"
Murong Xiaotian turned around and left.
In my heart, I actually still have a lot of questions.
Lord? Is the top NPC leader of this Titanic port a lord?
It’s really new. Murong Xiaotian only knows that in Xinsheng Village, the supreme ruler is the village chief; in a town, the supreme ruler is the mayor and the commander of the city defense camp; in a human-level city, the supreme ruler is the city lord and the general of the city defense regiment; at the prefecture level
In the city, the supreme ruler is the king and the marshal of the city defense army.
There is only one heaven-level city, the City of Runes, and the supreme ruler is the emperor.
No matter what level this Titanic port belongs to, there shouldn't be any lords?
It seems that my understanding of "The Way of Heaven" is still far behind.
Now it seems that the information officially released by "Tiandao" is just the most common superficial information.
Murong Xiaotian had no intention of asking Chef Lao Wang about Titanic Port. It should be easier to inquire at Titanic Port than in Void Village, right?
After leaving the village, we went straight to Titanic Port. When we got there, Murong Xiaotian was truly shocked.
Whether it is the NPC patrols on the streets, the NPC merchants doing business, or even the ordinary NPC residents, they are completely different from those in the main city of the system.
Above their heads, there are words saying they belong to Titanic territory.
"A prince?"
Intuition made these four words flash in Murong Xiaotian's mind.
Is it possible that in "Tiandao", in addition to the power of system city NPCs, there is also the power of NPC feudal princes?
It’s no wonder that this Titanic port is not shown on the public map of the ‘Chinese District’.
No players could be seen in the entire Titanic Port. In fact, Murong Xiaotian had not seen any players since entering the Void Village.
Murong Xiaotian estimated that at least until the currency conversion between reality and "Tiandao" is enabled, no players will come.
Without that player, he would go crazy and run for days and nights to get here, and there would be no player who would spend more than a thousand gold coins to fly here as a way station if he had nothing to do.
Unless it's a player like him who has no choice but to appear in this place for a mission.
Through inquiring about the NPC, Murong Xiaotian confirmed his idea that this lord called Huodu was really a prince.
The land in the Titanic port area was his territory.
Except for the necessary tribute to Rune City once a year, everything here is completely outside the jurisdiction of the system city.
Lord Huo Du is a veritable earth emperor.
After finding the place where the ship was built, Murong Xiaotian didn't go anywhere. What the cook Lao Wang said was right. There are plenty of 'alloy steels', so you have to be able to get them, right?
The entire perimeter of the shipbuilding is guarded by NPC soldiers, and you can't get in at all.
I'm afraid it's not easy to get 'alloy steel'.
"Brother, can't you let me go in and take a look?"
Standing at the gate of the shipyard, facing the heavily armed NPC guards, Murong Xiaotian tried his best to look sincere.
"No problem, I didn't stop you, just go in, but don't blame me if you die," the NPC guard chuckled.
"Fuck you, this is nonsense!" Murong Xiaotian cursed angrily in his heart.
But he still said very politely: "Well, brother, can you send a message? I have business negotiations with your manager."
"Then you don't need to go in. This is the work area. To find the leader and discuss business, you have to go to the business building," the NPC guard pointed towards the distance.
"Thanks!"
Murong Xiaotian ran towards a two-story building not far from the shipyard.
Although I couldn't go in, I still got some clues anyway, right?
Murong Xiaotian ran up to him and was a little dumbfounded. Your sister actually has a signboard with the name of the company. Above the door, on a shiny golden plaque, it actually says 'Hodo Titanic Shipping Company'.
of words.
Thank you so much, you are so serious about it.
Pushing the door open, you will find a bright hall on the first floor. Apart from a service desk, there are basically no other facilities inside.
A beautiful NPC girl in a professional suit was sitting behind the service desk. When she saw Murong Xiaotian coming in, she immediately stood up with a bright smile on her face and said in a sweeter voice: "Hello, sir, what can I do for you?
Do you need me to serve you?"
"I don't have anything to serve, I just want to chat with you," Murong Xiaotian said casually.
"I'm sorry, it's working time now, I can't chat with you," the NPC girl's face turned red, and her sweet voice was slightly shy.
"It's okay. There's no one around now anyway. Beauty, do you have a boyfriend?" Murong Xiaotian walked up and stared at the NPC girl without blinking.
"Sir, don't do this. It would be bad if others see it!" the NPC girl's face turned even redder.
"What? Are you afraid that your boyfriend will be jealous when he sees you?"
"I-I don't have a boyfriend!"
"Then do you think you'd like me to be your boyfriend?" Murong Xiaotian chuckled.
With just a few words of testing, Murong Xiaotian has basically grasped the character of this NPC girl - simple, shy, and innocent.
It's not difficult at all to win over an NPC girl with this kind of personality.
"You, don't talk nonsense," the NPC girl's face turned red from embarrassment, and her voice became much softer.
Even those eyes that were confused at first did not dare to look at Murong Xiaotian.
"Okay! Think about it slowly and give me an answer next time. Let's get down to business now. I want to buy a piece of 'alloy steel'. I can also use scraps, as long as it's as big as a kitchen knife." Murong Xiaotian immediately changed the topic.
"ah!"
The npc girl was stunned, very surprised, the redness on her face quickly receded, and she said in a sweet voice: "I'm sorry, our shipping company only sells finished products, any semi-finished products, as well as shipbuilding materials, are not included in the transaction scope.
within.”
After saying that, he smiled apologetically at Murong Xiaotian.
"What? Are you selling boats?" Murong Xiaotian was suddenly startled.
"Yes, there are three types of ships we currently sell: power ships, natural ships, and energy ships; and the ocean-going energy ships we are currently manufacturing and the ocean-going warships we are developing will gradually be launched on the market in the future."
