Chapter 345: Everyone's Work Enthusiasm Is Very High
Among them, there were over 8,000 sailors alone.
Although he had also ordered Golems from Lan Qingyou's side, going out to sea wasn't something that pre-programmed Golems could handle with full authority.
And the rest were all shipbuilders with rich work experience back on Blue Star.
With the addition of this batch of shipbuilding workers, the manufacturing speed of his fleet's ships could reach a higher level.
And the time until making money would also be closer.
Of course.
As a Forest Elf who regarded the Forsaken Territory as his base headquarters, 40% of the shares in his fleet belonged to Lan Qingyou.
If it weren't taking into consideration that as the actual manager he needed absolute authority to speak, this share could have soared to sixty.
After all, the land belonged to someone else, the materials belonged to someone else, and even these workers, in a sense, also belonged to someone else.
Who asked the Forest Elves' autonomous territory to be inland without being adjacent to the sea or even a large river.
Moreover, looking at the map drawn by those map-drawing guys now, the geographical location of the Forsaken Territory was actually extremely superior.
Whether going left or right or across the sea, one could find a foothold. It was simply a chosen land for running maritime commerce.
Although because of cards, the store, and Teleportation Arrays, many commodities didn't actually need maritime transport.
But for bulk transactions, transportation was still more cost-effective.
After all, Teleportation Arrays required cost, and the personal stores on the World Channel had now also started taking a cut, or rather, 'paying taxes' to the Magic Desk.
Initially, there were complaints everywhere, but thinking about having used it for free for more than half a year, starting to charge handling fees now seemed to be reasonable and fair as well.
However, this kind of thought was just deceiving oneself and others.
In a word.
It just meant that they couldn't beat the World Will, nor could they lack the Magic Desk, so every single one of them could only pinch their noses and endure it.
"Tower, done?"
When seeing Lan Qingyou flying in front put her card into the cloth bag at her waist, Vivian knew it was done.
"Mm. Remember to deliver those 300,000 tons of materials early. This time, in order to persuade that bunch of shut-ins to go out, I practically bled out."
Lan Qingyou sighed.
In the negotiation with the shut-ins, they didn't let it go until the wage increased from 100 catties of materials a day to 500 catties a day.
But although the price had increased, because everyone was rushing for time, the finally calculated result was that it could be finished in less than two months.
After all, everyone was just like Lan Qingyou, they still cared a lot about doing research.
But Lan Qingyou didn't blame them at all.
Because if it were herself, she would probably ask for a similar price, and even proactively request to work overtime in order to finish early and go home.
Lots of money, go home and be a shut-in after finishing.
The dream of how many people.
"Don't worry. I've already had people prepare it. However, these 300,000 tons need to be paid in installments, and the Magic Items too."
"Then what about the initial payment?"
Knowing that such a huge amount couldn't be paid off all at once, Lan Qingyou didn't complain about the other party either.
To put it bluntly, even she herself back then couldn't take out so many things at once.
"Let's pay one-third for the initial payment first, and then pay one-third every month afterwards."
Vivian didn't drop the ball on her side either.
The reason she dared to say this was mainly because she now had eight Vampire families on hand.
With these families on hand, wanting to get these things was completely not a problem.
It was nothing more than spending some time.
"That's perfect. The Magic Array should also take about two months to finish."
"Hmm? Didn't you say three months before?"
Vivian was dumbfounded.
"Plans changed, everyone's work enthusiasm is very high."
Omitting some unimportant details, Lan Qingyou casually attributed the shortened construction period to very official-sounding rhetoric.
However, this sentence wasn't entirely wrong.
Because the 500 catties was purely added by her after the Witch Coven members shouted for a daily wage of 300 catties of materials.
No other reason, she was just afraid of trouble.
And hearing the daily wage of 500 catties of materials, the Witches all became excited one by one.
The first small team of thirty people was gathered in a flash.
As for those Witches who hadn't spoken from beginning to end, there was no need to think, they must definitely be genuinely doing experiments.
Instead of speaking contrary to their minds or secretly lurking and reading the screen like Pandora.
"Head of Báthory."
When everyone walked out of the auction venue, a tall man with a pale face, looking as if he were anemic, walked over.
From the other party's form of address, it wasn't hard to see who this guy was.
"Head of Giovanni, are you waiting here specifically for me?"
"Correct. Since I have already chosen to join your Vampire Alliance, then it is natural to come and meet you."
Giovanni smiled.
Paying respects to the local boss, rules of the underworld, he was still clear about this point.
Especially under the circumstances of having refused once before.
Then he needed to show a bit of sincerity even more.
"Vampire Alliance?"
The crowd at the side who heard a new term all looked at Vivian with confusion.
"It's just a mutual aid alliance formed by gathering several Vampire families together."
Vivian explained indifferently.
In reality, she completely didn't want to make this alliance, but she couldn't withstand Lilith and the others' persuasion.
Saying things like everyone was a Vampire, and they would inevitably see each other around in the future, so it was best to integrate everyone together in the initial stage.
This way, it would be easier to look out for each other in the future.
Originally, she created the Illusion Mist Vampires to have them protect her, so having a few more people protecting her wasn't unacceptable either.
So in the end, not only did she agree to this proposal, she even bit the bullet and went to find those Clan Leaders.
Fortunately, the reputation of Vivian's Illusion Mist Vampires was already huge. There were even several Clan Leaders of Vampire families who had specifically considered 'Vampire' when crafting their Evolution Items.
So in the end, when Vivian had just opened her mouth, many family Clan Leaders immediately agreed to this matter.
"Then you guys are truly lucky. Now you can get together to increase the Defense Value of the regional protective dome."
After listening to Vivian's account, someone jokingly said.
No... actually, it couldn't be considered a joke either.
Because everyone was a bit envious.
If it was an alliance, everyone would feel much more at ease being in the same region.
"Before this, I didn't know this thing was among today's auctioned items, but looking at it now, it's definitely worth it. Head of Giovanni, are you guys coming over to Emerald Ridge?"
At the thought that her territory could also be like the Forsaken Territory where one could go anywhere, Vivian's mood improved considerably.
Thus, she turned her head to look at the newly joined Giovanni.
"Since we've already chosen to join, then naturally we are going. I've already asked people to prepare for the relocation matters."
"That's good. I've also already told my subordinates on this side. After you go over, just find a guy named Lilith or Adam."
"Understood, Alliance Leader."
Giovanni covered his chest with his hand and bowed slightly to Vivian, performing a grand gesture. After that, he turned around and walked towards the direction of the Teleportation Array.
