King of the Fairy City

Ye Mo arranged for Lin Zhi to lead a team to explore the resources of the surrounding wild islands.

Ye Mo himself went to the Immortal Academy Heritage Hall in Qingyun Immortal City to purchase a ship design drawing and hired a shipbuilder to go to Ye's Immortal Village to build a dock.

The shipbuilding at the dockyard cannot be delayed any longer.

There is currently only one light pirate ship in Ye's Fairy Village.

If the surrounding fairy villages send several sea ships to cut off the sea routes between Ye's main island and the affiliated islands, then it will be useless no matter how many islands Ye's fairy village occupies.

Moreover, once a naval battle breaks out, one of the pirate ships in Ye Village is too weak. Once the pirate ship is damaged, it will be difficult to move forward. Not even repairs could be carried out.

Ye Mo has clearly felt that once a naval battle breaks out, the lack of docks will become a fatal weakness of Ye's Fairy Village.

Ye Mo spent most of an hour in the Immortal Academy Heritage Hall and spent 2,000 spirit stones to buy a blueprint of a sea ship.

Of course, blueprints alone are not enough, you must also have mature shipbuilders to build sea-going ships in a short time.

Later, Ye Mo went to a Lu's shop in Xiancheng and found the shopkeeper Lu Tong. Lu Tong is a local monk in Qingyun Immortal City. He is familiar with the place and can help find several suitable shipbuilders.

"Lord Yecheng, do you want to hire a shipbuilder?"

Lu Tong thought for a while and said, "This is not difficult. As long as you can afford the wages, there are still many shipbuilders in Qingyun Immortal City. I also know a few of them. You can send someone to contact me. You can stay with me for a while. , you can see it”

He gave a few instructions to a waiter, who nodded and left in a hurry.

Later, Lu Tong said to Ye Mo, "I wonder how Ye Village is doing lately?" He was very interested in the situation in Aolai Islands.

"We are preparing to seize a few more sub-islands. However, the lack of sea-going ships is very inconvenient, so we must build a dock as soon as possible.

Now in the Aolai sea area, there are many fairy villages and few spiritual islands. In about a month, after all the villages have built the main island, they will definitely take over the other sub-islands, and the battle will be fierce. "

Ye Mo smiled helplessly.

He did not hide anything and briefly talked about the situation in the Aolai Islands.

"We must grab more sub-islands. The more sub-islands, the more resources. When your fairy village has resources, it will definitely attract many casual cultivators to your fairy village. By the way, Ye's fairy village should need a lot Are the relevant supporting building facilities ready?”

Lu Tong's businessman nature broke out, and he found that there was profit in it, so he couldn't help but ask.

“Isn’t the purpose of building the dock just to build supporting facilities?”

Ye Mo said.

"Providing ships to and from the sea is only the most basic need, but a fairy village also needs to open numerous shops, elixir shops, magic weapon shops, and grocery stores for purchasing supplies, etc. These are always indispensable.

Only if these three things are complete will the casual cultivators be willing to go to your Ye's Fairy Village and go out to sea to hunt sea monsters. Otherwise, if the supplies are not fully replenished, we have to return to Qingyun Fairy City. How much trouble would that be?

Your Ye's spiritual island is too far away from Qingyun Immortal City. One teleportation costs up to two spiritual stones. This spiritual stone is also a huge waste in the eyes of casual cultivators."

Lu Tong shook his head repeatedly.

"Why, Manager Lu is interested in opening a shop in my Ye Village?"

Ye Mo couldn't help but feel happy.

"Hey, there is such a plan. The Weapon Refining Pavilion in Ye Village can only refine the first-level Red Fire Sword Armor. There are no other first-level equipment with various attributes, and you don't have higher-level equipment either.

You definitely can't open this spiritual weapon shop yourself. The same goes for the elixir shop, which needs all kinds of elixirs. Ye Cun doesn't have the strength to refine it himself.

My Lu family has all the goods and can open the store to Ye Village. Of course, the tax burden should be as favorable as possible, and you won't be able to earn many spiritual stones in the past. "

Lu Tong smiled and looked at Ye Mo.

"Okay, you can open all kinds of shops to Ye Village, and I will exempt you from all taxes for one year. I will also exempt you from the rent of the shops in Xian Village.

Ye Mo nodded lightly, "When the dock is built and there are sea ships, casual cultivators can also go out to sea to hunt monsters. This will probably attract many casual cultivators to activities in the fairy village."

Ye Mo is happy to see Lu's store open to Ye Village. Only when merchants settle in Fairy Village can they provide the villagers and casual cultivators with the most basic spiritual items.

"good"

Lu Tong immediately beamed, this was the purpose of his friendship with Ye Mo. As a family of cultivators doing business, being on good terms with the city lord can bring you a lot of convenience.

The two chatted for a while.

Soon, a clerk from Lu's shop led a dozen people dressed as shipwrights over. Three of these dozen people were monks in the Qi training stage.

Ye Mo looked over.

"Master Ye City, I would like to introduce to you. This is Mo Yun shipbuilder, who can build all kinds of low-level ships. He is a shipbuilder from Qingyun Immortal Academy and currently works in a large shipyard in Immortal City.

These two are Master Mo's apprentices. One is Li Zhao and the other is Hao Yan. They are both shipbuilding apprentices. As for these dozen shipwrights, they all have experience working in the dock, so you should be able to use them."

Lu Tong quickly introduced Ye Mo.

"Ye City Lord? Is he the new city owner who just passed the Immortal Academy graduation exam this year? Shipbuilding must have sea-going ship drawings. Does Ye City Lord have sea-going ship drawings in his hand?

In addition, my salary is at least fifty spiritual stones per month, and the two apprentices are ten spiritual stones per month. I won't go there for less than this salary. "

Mo Yun couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Ye Mo was so young. He looked at Lu Tong with a bit of suspicion in his eyes.

"this……"

Lu Tong looked at Ye Mo.

"OK"

Ye Mo thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. He handed Mo Yun a copy of the ship design he had bought back.

It is impossible to recruit a skilled shipbuilder to build a dock in Ye's Fairy Village without paying a sufficiently attractive wage.

""Light Armored Warship Design"? This is the lightest standard warship, high speed, but with low armor. This is a ship specially designed for the Xiancun Sea Battle."

Mo Yun took a look at the blueprint of the ship and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

This is only useful for Xiancun during the Qi training period. When you arrive in Xianzhen, you will basically not use this kind of sea-going ship.

"Um"

Ye Mo nodded.

Soon, Mo Yun readily agreed to go to Ye's Fairy Village to build ships.

Of course, these fifty spirit stones are not paid in vain. Mo Yun must ensure that he can produce one light sea-going ship every month.

As for the warriors, Ye Mo promised that if they perform well, they can be rewarded with first-level vitality pills. With this as a temptation, these warrior shipwrights can go to his newly built fairy village without fear of danger.

Return to Ye's Fairy Village.

At the port, Chang Fei has already led some villagers to seize the time to build a dock.

After Mo Yun arrived with two apprentices and a dozen shipbuilders, he immediately made corresponding modifications based on the light warship drawings and actual requirements.

The dock was renovated on the same day and could build sea-going ships.

Building sea ships requires a large amount of spiritual wood, and the demand for spiritual wood has increased suddenly.

After Ye Mo weighed it up, he reduced the number of mining slaves and transferred them to the Lingmu Farm to cut trees, so that he could barely supply enough.

In fact, the production of black iron ore and red fire ore on Chihuo Mine Island has always been in surplus. A batch of raw ore is transported to Ye's Fairy Village every three days.

Wang Hu and Yang You of the Weapon Refining Pavilion, as well as many weapon refining boys, couldn't use them all. Ye Cun does not intend to sell cheap ore raw materials. These ores are stored in the warehouse in the village.

"Lord Yecheng, this kind of light-armored warship is very suitable for the waters of the Aolai Islands. Although the defense of the ship is very weak, its sailing speed is extremely fast, making it convenient to travel to and from the affiliated islands.

This kind of lightly armored warship is at least twice as fast as a large ship. The ship can be equipped with copper cannons, which can also play a great role in naval battles.

This ship can also be used as a cargo ship. Although the cargo capacity inside the ship is not large, it can already meet Ye Cun's needs. "

Mo Yun carefully studied the drawings of the light armored warship, looked at Ye Mo in surprise and said.

"Of course, I have read a lot of information about warships in Qingyun Immortal Academy and studied the battle of Xiancun. This is a set of warship drawings that I specially selected."

Ye Mo chuckled.

Chang Fei also moved his head over, looked at it carefully, and said in surprise, "City Lord, this kind of sea ship should be good and stronger than our current pirate ships. If it is built with third-level spiritual wood, it can have a good defense no matter how poor it is." It can withstand an attack with a force of three thousand kilograms. It is very practical and enough for us.

"How many ships can be built in a month at most?"

Ye Mo nodded slightly and asked Mo Yun.

"This depends on the manpower in the dock. The more people there are, the faster the shipbuilding speed. Lightly armored warships are easier to build, and the process is not complicated. The situation in the Aolai Islands is very complicated and is not suitable for building large sea ships. There is a lack of high-level spiritual trees, and secondly, there may not be enough time.”

Mo Yun nodded.

When they first met at Lu's store, he knew the situation here and had been prepared for it.

"I will deploy all the manpower you need. Twenty warriors, plus the ten experienced shipwrights you brought, can only provide so many manpower for the time being. When there are more people in the fairy village, I will deploy more people. come over"

Ye Mo thought about it for a moment, nodded and made up his mind before speaking again.

"Thirty warriors are enough. As long as the supply of spiritual wood can continue, I guarantee that two qualified light armored warships will be produced every month."

Mo Yun stood up and said with a smile.

Ye Mo let go of the dock and handed it over to Chang Fei and Mo Yun to build the light armored warship. Mo Yun was in charge of shipbuilding, while Chang Fei trained sailors and crew members and equipped the warships with combat members.

Ye Mo returned to the City Lord's Mansion after a tiring day and entered the Ancient Painting Fairy Village.

Ancient painting fairy village.

"boom"

There was a loud noise, and Ali jumped out of the alchemy pavilion with a dark face.

Just now, it accidentally exploded the furnace again.

"I'm so angry. My alchemy success rate has reached 15%. Why is the furnace still exploding? It shouldn't be."

Ah Li shook her body, and her dark face and messy fur returned to their previous appearance.

The pheasant in the distance glanced at it with disdain, turned away, and ignored it.

"snort"

Ah Li glared at Ah Zhi, then stretched out his paws to scratch his little head and thought hard, "Refining elixirs is much more difficult than refining weapons. If the refining fails, the materials can be recycled; if the elixir is broken, you can only wait for a new elixir to come out. It's really troublesome to read "Basics of Alchemy" again. Is there anything you overlooked?

Ali took out the thin introductory book again and started studying it.
