Chapter 594 The quarrel between Alice and Hughington
The snow didn't fall for long. After two days, the weather cleared up. The snow on the ground began to melt, and the snow on many bluestones on the ground dried up.
After settling the medical bills and going through the discharge procedures, I happened to meet Nilu Wei and Angelo on the way.
"Are you going to be discharged from the hospital now?" Angelou completely returned to his normal appearance.
Bing Zhixie did not speak, but just nodded to them symbolically to express friendship.
Alice glanced at the master and then said: "Well, it has been more than ten days. I also think that the master's condition should be rested for two more days, but the master said that he has stayed here for a long time."
"That's right." Angelou was not angry at Bing Zhixie's attitude. He was still sad about the death of his friend.
"Where are you? Sir Angelou, and Captain?" Alice looked at them and asked.
"Don't call me captain." Nilu Wei said: "I don't know where to go. Sir Angelou said that he can recommend me to serve in Domondo. I am still thinking about this matter."
Angelou said: "I want to stay here for two more days. My injury has not healed yet, and I also want to wait until the captain has a clear answer before leaving."
"That's right." Alice bent down and saluted: "Thank you for taking care of us when we were at Tubat volcano. Then... let's go first. Goodbye."
Angelou waved to her to say goodbye.
After leaving the hospital gate, since he was no longer wanted by the Anilu family, there was no need to hide anymore. Bing Zhixie said to Alice: "Shuringington should be at the airship manufacturing factory, you go there first.
Join him."
"Master, where are you?"
Bing Zhixie said: "I still have something to do." After saying that, he walked straight to the street.
At the airship factory, Hullington circled around his airship, watching the workers resume construction.
After a while, Kester crawled out from the bottom of the pod covered in oil, threw the tools in his hand aside and said to Hullington: "It will be fine soon. Go in and see if there is anything else."
Not satisfied with it.”
Hughington and Bingzhixie have different tastes. Bingzhixie only pays attention to speed and efficiency, and does not spend too much money on other aspects. But Hughington is different. He is full of tricks and travels around the world.
High-end clubs have long been accustomed to that kind of high-end enjoyment, so naturally their airships cannot be too simple.
He nodded and smiled: "I really want to thank you for getting our airship back from those officials."
Kester chuckled and said: "It's nothing. We haven't delivered this airship yet, it still belongs to our chamber of commerce, and those officials will not easily embarrass us, a large international chamber of commerce. If we fail to hand over the airship,
It would be bad if you ask us for a refund."
Hullington looked at the Harmony again: "This looks like something. The previous pod was too small and didn't even have room to move."
Kester said: "According to your request, we added a ship side to the outside of the pod and a deck at the back. The cabin is also divided into a main layer and two mezzanines. The upper mezzanine can be stacked with food, and the lower mezzanine can be placed
For luggage, the main floor in the middle is a place for rest and entertainment. In addition, a gondola device is added under the pod, which you will know later when the airship is tested."
"Speaking of test flights, there won't be any problems, right?" Hughington asked.
Kester waved his hand: "There won't be any problem. We already did a test flight last time. This time we just remodeled and enlarged the hull. I think even if there is a problem, it can be solved in a short time.
Don’t worry. However, the cost of re-construction and modification..."
Hullington said: "Ah, tell me how much it will cost."
Kester said: "Last time I told you that it would cost about 40,000 to 50,000 gold coins, but actually according to your requirements, the cost was much higher than expected. Including labor costs, it would cost 63,000 gold coins.
.”
"More than sixty-five thousand?" Hughington hesitated: "That's a bit much, can't it be less?"
Kester shook his head and said: "It can't be any less. Because we are a big customer, we have already waived a lot of fees for you. And there is no charge for training you to fly an airship."
Hurlington said helplessly: "Okay, okay, a businessman is a businessman, and he won't give up three thousand gold coins." As he said that, he thought to himself: "I sold the gem ball two days ago for seventy thousand gold coins, but these two
God, I spent a lot of money lavishly. Although it is barely enough to pay the 63,000 gold coins, but after spending this money, I have to eat the old money in my bank. No, I can never pay this money.
, this airship does not belong to me alone, nor is it what I want to buy, so why should I be allowed to buy it?"
Thinking of this, he added: "Sixty-three thousand gold coins is just sixty-three thousand gold coins, but you have to ask Bing Zhixie for this money, not me."
Kester hesitated and said: "But the modification cost is yours..."
Hullington waved his hand and interrupted him: "Don't worry, he will come out."
Just as he was talking, Alice came.
"Hi, Kester, and you." Alice greeted Kester happily, but turned stern towards Hurlington.
Hullington was stunned: "Hey, what do you mean?"
"Humph!" Alice didn't even pay him a glance. She just walked to Kester and said, "Who told you to sell my master's gem ball? You disappeared. We have even seen each other in the past two days.
Not even exposed, I don’t know where I went to live happily and drunkenly.”
"I..." Hughington was speechless for a moment, then said after a while: "Am I not going to supervise the construction of the airship here? What kind of debauchery, who do you think I am?"
Alice replied "Not a good person" and stopped talking. Instead, Kester said with a smile: "Long time no see, please take me to the airship to have a look. I heard it has been modified. I don't know what happened."
It’s okay.”
"Ah, good...good." Kester was held by Alice's little hand, and his face suddenly turned red.
"Hey, wait a minute, where is your master?" Hughington called to her.
"what."
Hullington said: "What else is there, of course, payment."
"What money?" Alice looked at him confused.
"What other money is there, of course it is the modification fee for the airship."
"What?" Alice said as if she didn't hear clearly: "You took my master's gem ball and sold it, and you asked my master for money? Besides, it was not my master's idea to modify the airship.
You took matters into your own hands as soon as you were discharged from the hospital."
Hullington said: "Hey, you can't say that. The airship doesn't belong to me alone, and I don't want to buy it. Why should I pay for it? If he doesn't buy it, don't I not have to spend the money? Besides,
, that gem ball is the remuneration I deserve, you all said that we have an employment relationship, since it is your master who hired me to work, of course he should pay me a salary."
Alice shouted: "Why do you want your salary to be so expensive? How can you sell that gem ball for tens of thousands?"
"No way!" Hullington immediately retorted: "The quality of the gem ball is not particularly good, and it is not a particularly high-end gem. It only sold for 70,000!"
"Isn't seventy thousand enough?" Alice ran over and rummaged through his pockets.
"What are you doing? Don't pull my new clothes."
Alice said reluctantly: "Bring the money, take it out quickly. You still want to take all 70,000 gold coins. Uncle Caesar refined gold for me once and only charged us 150,000 gold coins. You alone
You are a small, nameless alchemist who has lived and breathed my master's fortune along the way, and has not produced anything yet, so why should you get my master's salary of 70,000 gold coins?"
Hullington retorted again: "Is seventy thousand gold coins a lot? I used to have this amount casually a month ago."
"You are lying, you big liar, you stinking liar, hurry up and get the money, that is my master's money!" Alice resisted and wanted to grab it.
"Stop making trouble!" Hullington shook her off and said: "The money is not on me, and you can't get it. This matter has nothing to do with you. I'll tell your master, where are the others?"
"I don't know, and I won't tell you if I know." Alice muttered and cursed again: "You damn liar, you cheated my master of his money."
"Forget it if you don't tell me. I'll go find it myself." After saying this, Hughington straightened out his messed up clothes and left the airship factory.
