Chapter 460: A wave of sudden wealth on Rapids Island

The huge shadow once again covered the dock of Rapids Island, attracting the attention of the busy people.

Although the people on the island have become familiar with the existence of dragons in these days, they still show awe every time they see them.

"Why does it feel like Mr. Dragon has grown bigger again?"

Karada, who was busy repairing the warship, was a little puzzled. He had had many contacts with the dragon Carlos and had a certain understanding of it.

It was obvious that the dragon was bigger today than before.

"Yes, it has indeed grown bigger!"

Reese, who had recently assisted in the defense of Rapids Island, nodded in agreement. He also felt the same way.

At this time, Ronin used the wings of wind to jump off the back of the dragon and landed steadily on the warship.

"It's the Lord!"

Karada and Reese were stunned when they saw Ronin coming, and then greeted him enthusiastically. Other busy knights and sailors also bowed and saluted.

If they were in awe of the dragon, then they were fanatically worshipping the dragon master in front of them.

After Ronin briefly greeted everyone, he signaled everyone to continue their work.

"I heard from Carlos that we captured three complete warships in this battle. What about this one?" He pointed at his feet and asked.

Karada explained: "This ship was damaged a bit seriously. We just pulled it back in the past two days to see if it can be repaired."

"In addition, my lord, in addition to these warships, we also captured ten magic cannons, including one level 6 and three level 5, as well as nearly a thousand arrows, and hundreds of high-quality armor and protective gear."

Ronin's eyes lit up and showed joy.

Ten magic cannons, three complete warships, such a big loss, even the Fleming family, the overlord of the sea, would feel the pain.

"Congratulations, Karada, this time the Rapids Island has made a fortune!"

Speaking of which, Ronin can be said to have won the war in four directions this time.

Karada was very modest, indicating that the credit this time was basically Carlos's, and they were just helping out.

However, he also took advantage of this victory to make his own suggestions to Ronin:

"Sir, our port can hardly hold so many ships now, I want to expand it. But on the one hand, we lack the start-up capital, and on the other hand, there are very few professional talents here."

When there were only one or two ships in the past, Captain Vic could handle it with a few crew members and maintenance workers.

But now there are more ships, and the port must be equipped with professional pilots, otherwise there may be mistakes.

"What do you think?"

"I plan to go to Niujiao Bay to recruit more people, but to let them come to this currently very barren island, they must be offered a high price, and even some fields on the island."

Ronin understood that Karada had no money.

He smiled and said, "You are the governor of Jiliu Island. You can decide how to build this island."

Arming Jiliu Island and even building a dock here was Ronin's plan. It's just that Wubei Port has not been built yet, and there is no division of labor here.

If Karada can bring people over to start work, it is not impossible for Ronin to provide financial support.

"I will give you 30,000 gold coins first, and you can go ahead and recruit people."

Karadar's face was delighted, "Thank you for your generosity, sir. I believe that the future Rapids Island will definitely be the most prosperous area in your territory."

Ronin couldn't help but laugh. The downtrodden man who looked a little melancholy at the beginning is now living a more cheerful and motivated life.

"Last time you told me that Monroe flowers were found on the island. How are they now?"

Monroe flowers are one of the medicinal materials that assist in improving potions, and are related to Elron's production of magic potions.

"Lord Elron has come to investigate and taught us how to plant. With the amount of money on several hills on the island, as long as the planting is done properly, it can last for many years."

Ronin nodded: "In the future, when you transport Monroe flowers, wood or other things to Wubei Territory, you will settle with Wubei Territory according to the normal sales. For the specific price and settlement method, you can go to Wubei Territory to find Chahar to confirm it when you have time."

He knew that the funds required to build Rapids Island were far more than 30,000 gold coins, so he decided to use the resources on the island to support the economic cycle in the territory.

Since Rapids Island has resources, it will sell resources to realize the circulation of money in the territory, which will also avoid the problem of asking Ronin for money every time it is short of money.

It's okay for him to come to Rapids Island frequently. If he doesn't come here for more than half a year, wouldn't the development here be stagnant directly?

So, it's better to leave the construction and financial matters to the people below.

After all, the territory is now large, and if you want to manage it well, you must form a system. Ronin only needs to be the creator and maintainer of the system.

Reese listened to the conversation between the two without interrupting, and only asked the doubts in his heart after the affairs of Rapids Island were basically discussed.

"My lord, since you have come to Rapids Island, does that mean that the battle in Moonlight Valley is over? My father..."

"The battle in Moonlight Valley is over, and we won a great victory. As for Pointed City... Don't worry, there are no so-called pirates attacking Port Dennis."

In order to prevent Screaming Island from attacking Port Dennis, Lulans and Ronin discussed and not only did not let Vitorino send troops to support, but also let Toru take the First Knights of Wushan Fort to defend Pointed City.

This is the first time in the past thirty years that Pointed City has been protected by Wushan Fort.

But unfortunately, the enemy did not come.

Luo Ning briefly explained the battle situation of Wushan Leader, which made the two of them excited.

Enemies were encountered on all sides, but victory was achieved on all sides. This was a great victory for the Wushan Territory!

"By the way, sir, we are still guarding a special prisoner."

"His status is very special," Reese said with a smile.

"oh?"

Luo Ning suddenly became interested, "Who is it?"

Reese glanced at Kalada, who smiled and said: "It's the lord of Crescent Island, Viscount Partridge."

"Before their warship came that day, Mr. Dragon grabbed Partridge with his sharp claws. Although he saved his life, all the bones in his body were broken. Now he is lying in bed and cannot take care of himself. I I found a woman in Lantian Town to take care of him.”

Calada still values ​​such high-status captives, and generally speaking, captured nobles will also receive certain preferential treatment.

Luo Ning knew about Screaming Island and also knew that Viscount Partridge of Crescent Island was a Meteor Knight.

He couldn't help but smile sarcastically, "This Myron has even sent out the Meteor Knights. It seems that he is determined to occupy Waiheke Island by force."

Kalada also smiled and said: "It's a pity that he didn't expect that your dragon would be so powerful, and he had already set up defenses here."

"Let's go, take me to meet him."

In a relatively clean small room, the female servant was leaning against the corner and taking a nap, while Partridge was moaning in pain on the boat.

As a Meteor Knight, he is very physically strong.

Even though all his bones were broken, he still survived.

It's just that it will take a long time to get back to action.

"Hey, Aunt Coconut, what are you doing?"

Kalada's call directly dragged the woman out of her dream. She stood up in a panic while wiping the saliva from the corner of her mouth.

"I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry, I fell asleep accidentally just now..."

Karada was a little embarrassed and didn't want to blame him. He waved him aside and then led Luo Ning into the room.

The smell in the room was not very good, so the attentive Reese Knight opened the window to let in the fresh sea breeze.

"I can't bear to let the noble Viscount of Crescent Island suffer in such a small room."

The sudden stranger's voice made Partridge open his eyes.

He had not met Ronin, but he could tell the person's identity from the attitudes of Kalada and Reese.

"Baron of Waiheke Island, Your Excellency Luo Ning, it is very degrading for you to treat the nobles like this. It is without noble etiquette and it is detrimental to the face of the Wushan family!"

Luo Ning twitched his lips, "It seems that you are in good spirits. This is enough to show that my governor feeds you, gives you drinks every day, and also serves you well and lets you sleep on this relatively clean bed. ”

Hearing this, Partridge went a little crazy.

Yes, he ate and drank, but what did he eat?

Also, the woman's rough hands could scratch his skin.

I think he is also a nobleman who enjoys a superior life. How has he ever suffered such a crime?

"Ransom, I want to pay the ransom!"

Partridge shouted loudly: "Crescent Island is willing to pay the ransom!" (End of this chapter)
