Chapter 36 Trivial

After several months, Ethan came to Stat Island again.

Compared with the last time, the changes in his body during this period can be said to be earth-shaking. From a thin fisherman boy to a mage apprentice who touched the mysterious power, the equipment on his body can ensure that he can act casually in this sea area without worrying about his life safety.

"Is this Stat Island?"

Arthur stood at the highest point in the stern building, looking at the port constantly, while Ethan was negotiating with the management staff stationed there.

This time he drove back two ships, one of which was slightly smaller, and he was going to sell it back to the Adventurers Guild. The bigger one was ready to repair it and replace it with the name of the Dawn Goddess ship he registered for for his use in the future.

"This time, it's been longer?"

In fact, it would be impossible for him to leave early when he came to Stat Island this time.

It takes a lot of time to unload the cargo on the ship and then sell it. The ship also needs relatively large repairs and care. The previous Angus didn't know how long he had been on the sea while driving this boat, and when was the last maintenance?

He didn't want to drive the boat to float on the sea, and suddenly he found that various problems caused him to encounter danger. The safest thing was to not care about spending and directly carry out a major maintenance on the boat.

"Also, clean up the name on the side of the bow."

"So what is the name of the ship changed to? Where is it engraved?"

The ship's name will be carved separately on a wooden board and then additional nails will be placed somewhere on the ship, which will not cause damage to the hull itself, and will also facilitate name change.

Stat Island has only one shipyard, which contracts all shipbuilding, repairing and maintenance work in the Sea of ​​Calmness. However, although it has formed an absolute monopoly, the price is fair and the craft is trustworthy. They basically make ships in the Sea of ​​Calmness, so there are no adventurers in the craft.

Through the help of the people from the port, the shipyard directly sent a young man in his twenties to receive Ethan. In addition to determining and registering which boat to be maintained, it also had to record all the additional requirements of the employer to avoid deviations in the final delivery and causing conflicts.

From this point of view, this shipyard that doesn’t even have a name is still very conscientious.

"Goddess of Dawn." Ethan touched his chin, and he thought about it and decided to hang his name on the stern: "If possible, add a bow image to me and ask for a statue of prayer."

The bow image is not a rare thing, but it exists purely as a decoration, and few people will ask for installation - these extra items are charged for additional charges.

This kind of thing that is useless to others is different for Ethan. He has learned a lot of things and practiced at sea for so long. This time he is preparing to change to a larger prop to practice. It is a bit dangerous to test directly on the hull. It doesn't matter if the bow is like this, and it won't hurt the ship itself if it is damaged.

If successful, he can improve his ship's ability! That's right, he just wants to engrave some magic circles on the bow image so that his ship can become a magic warship.

The young man sent by the shipyard was named Margo. When he heard that Ethan was actually going to install a bow image, his expression, which was originally routine, finally changed.

In fact, he was a little surprised when he saw this ship - the mad dog Angus, the evil dog, was still a little famous on Stat Island, not to mention that their shipyard was responsible for the maintenance of almost all ships in this ocean, and this ship has been seen countless times.

Of course, although the evil dog is quite famous, its strength is just that in the eyes of these people who have seen the world. It is not surprising that it accidentally kicks the iron plate or is killed because of unlucky.

But I didn't expect that this young man not only wanted to keep the Mad Dog Account for himself, but also had to undergo considerable transformation - it seems that this young man is not only strong but also financially powerful.

“Is there anything else to do except bow image and routine maintenance?”

Margo turned his head and looked at it. There were many scars on the ship. It was obviously a battle. However, the traces were very shallow and did not require excessive repairs. It would be fine if it was repaired properly. However, after confirming that Ethan seemed to have good financial resources, he was ready to develop this big customer.

"What transformation projects do you have?"

"Oh, there are so many of this, I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly here. If you are interested, I suggest you take some time to visit the shipyard in person. Not only does it have a detailed catalog, but also actual samples can give you a more straightforward understanding of the specific effects of the transformation."

Ethan didn't expect the service at this shipyard to be so good, so he nodded and agreed: "I will go and see it myself when the goods are unloaded."

Margo wrote a note on his notebook. Since Ethan agreed to go there himself, he would not need to waste time here. He came today just to record the services the other party needed. The ship had to wait until the cargo was unloaded before sending it to the shipyard by others.

"So goodbye, Ethan of Goddess of Dawn."

"goodbye."

Watching Margo leave, Ethan returns to the ship. The workers found by the port administrator have begun to take out the ore from the cabin and load it on one ox cart after another.

It was not until this time that he realized that the ore he found was a kind of ore rough stone with a variety of metals, from which he could extract common metals such as iron and copper. It is the most common and most demanding ore in the world.

Although it is very common, in fact, because of the huge demand, even the residents of islands that do not go out to sea need a lot of copper and iron to live, the "price" of this ore is not low.

"If all these ores are taken, they will be able to live without worries for a long time."

Even the shipyard is willing to use ore to pay for the maintenance, repair and renovation costs. Although the specific price depends on what he wants to transform the ship into, it will not be consumed in the end.

"Do you all go to the guild?"

"Yes, then store it directly into the guild."

The guild sent special clerks to handle this matter earlier, and such a large amount of ore was enough to attract their attention.

"Do you need to arrange a slightly larger accommodation this time?"

This clerk is very eye-catching, not to mention that when the guild arranges accommodation, they would arrange people on the boat together.

"Just be closer... By the way, can there be a place where guilds can be exercised?"

"There is a dedicated driving range, and it's completely free. It's just that there are public spaces, so there will be a lot of people and something bad may happen."

The words were very obscure, but the meaning had already reached the point. Ethan nodded and said that he understood: "It doesn't matter. Arrange the two of us together, it's better to get closer to the driving range."

"Okay, no problem."

Of course, someone else will do it. What the clerk needs to do is record all the counted "property data" in Ethan's personal name, and then go to the guild for backup. After that, Ethan can consume the property stored in the guild to enjoy some "charged" services, and can also "buy" what he needs directly from the guild's store.

Unfortunately, the guild of the Sea of ​​Calm still uses the simplest barter, and there is no currency that is accepted by everyone to facilitate transactions.

"Forget it, it's better to carry a lot of things yourself."

Now he is very glad that he joined the guild directly, instead of breaking around by himself. Not to mention storing materials, just collecting various materials would waste a lot of time.

As Ethan's "account" was deposited with a large amount of "property", many information in the guild began to be opened to him, and the clerk even told him some information very bluntly: for adventurers who can bring a lot of materials, the guild will not only provide various information, but will even provide support to a certain extent.

For example, prioritize intelligence and new ships; for example, when in distress, other leisure adventurers will be called upon to rescue them; for example, after encountering troubles of "bankruptcy", the guild will provide some basic ship supplies to give the adventurer a chance to turn back.

These treatments will become better and better as the wealth that adventurers bring to the guild increases.

"Oh, there are so many benefits?"

"Of course, there are still many benefits to joining the guild." Speaking of this, the clerk suddenly came over and lowered his voice: "In addition, the information on the guild can also be found in the guild."

"oh?"

Ethan is more interested now. He has planned to collect some relevant information during this period, but he didn't expect that someone would give him a pillow when he was sleepy.

But, telling yourself what are the benefits of these clerks?

When I first joined the guild, the same was true for the person who helped me join the guild. I always secretly seemed to reveal all kinds of messages. But these messages were good for him, and it didn't seem like I was deliberately cheating him.

"What are you greedy for? Are these clerks willing to be helpful?"

I really couldn't figure it out, and the goods were processed at this time, including the ore of both ships had been shipped to the guild. The remaining food and water on the ship would be paid for hiring these labors, and the remaining items would be handed over to the guild for processing - these things would soon be sold on the market and replaced with other things that could be stored for a long time and stored in Ethan's account.

After finishing all this, Ethan had no time to visit the guild's database, so he could only go to the assigned room with Arthur to rest.

"Let's go to the information room until tomorrow."

After a simple wash, Ethan prepared to practice his mental power and rest, and then go directly to solve Arthur's language problem tomorrow.

"I didn't expect that even Merlin left me a test for this matter."
