Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls Chapter 31: Black Market Cargo Ship Pass Permit

After calming his crew, Fang Yu didn’t forget to settle the task with Tang Xian.

But before settling the task, Fang Yu prepared to haggle with Tang Xian...

"You know... Mr. Tang, judging from last night’s battle with the Sand Crocodiles, there were more than we imagined..."

"With so many Sand Crocodiles, I fear they could bite to death more than just one or two pigs at a ti."

Fang Yu looked at Tang Xian with a heartache, empathizing, "Mr. Tang, your losses are greater than we imagined!"

Listening to Fang Yu’s words, Tang Xian’s old face flushed, he couldn’t help but cough lightly, murmuring, "Mr. Fang, I didn’t expect there to be so many Sand Crocodiles either, that’s on ."

"Oh no!" Fang Yu shook his head, "I’m not blaming you for not making clear the number of Sand Crocodiles, I’m just heartbroken over all those pigs of yours being eaten."

Tang Xian: ...

Damn, this kid’s being sarcastic, isn’t he just pointing the finger at ?

But in this matter, Tang Xian was indeed at fault.

He could naturally calculate the number of Sand Crocodiles from the number of pigs killed each day.

Every day, it wasn’t just one or two pigs that were bitten to death, but 5–8 pigs.

Yet it was because the losses were so substantial that Tang Xian purposely underreported the number of pigs getting bitten.

One pig a day might be just a few Sand Crocodiles.

Then Fang Yu and his crew wouldn’t find it difficult.

But if it were 5–8 pigs, then that ant there might be a clan of Sand Crocodiles, maybe even a leader among them.

The difficulty of elimination would be entirely different.

Tang Xian observed Fang Yu and his crew, secretly calculating, feeling that while their strength wasn’t weak, he couldn’t say with full confidence that they could handle the Sand Crocodile group.

If he revealed the real situation and Fang Yu and his crew backed out due to fear, what would he do then?

Continuing to post the reward and waiting for the next captain to co by could take days.

In that ti, the losses would only increase.

It was hard enough to find soone willing to take on the task, so Tang Xian couldn’t let go of this opportunity.

So... in terms of number... Tang Xian falsified a bit.

Despite his honest facade, who in business and trade is truly sincere?

He naturally understood that Fang Yu was hinting at him.

Tang Xian stole a glance at Fang Yu, only to see Fang Yu giving him a knowing look, causing Tang Xian to sigh internally, knowing this couldn’t be brushed aside.

Tang Xian cleared his throat, then stood up and addressed Fang Yu, "My brother, this matter is indeed my fault. How about this, besides the cannon modification scroll, I’ll also additionally compensate you with a Basic Black Market Cargo Ship Pass?"

"A Black Market Cargo Ship Pass?!"

Fang Yu’s eyes lit up, a bit surprised.

Tang Xian seed straightforward, but behind the scenes, he’s quite the scher.

The Black Market Cargo Ship is technically an illegal business, law-abiding citizens wouldn’t touch it, only those with wild connections and resources could access it.

On the Black Market Cargo Ship, they sell mainly illegal items, various forbidden artifacts.

The Ocean Court explicitly bans the Black Market Cargo Ship trade.

But it’s useless...

The owner of the Black Market Cargo Ship is a mysterious Transcendent, possessing great power.

Even if the Ocean Court attempts to ban the Black Market Cargo Ship, it can always be summoned through special ans from the void to conduct transactions with captains.

And the path to summon it is through the Black Market Cargo Ship Pass in Tang Xian’s hand.

This thing... is very precious!

There are specific threads in forums discussing the Black Market Cargo Ship’s goods.

The conclusion is:

1. The goods on the Black Market Cargo Ship have special "evil attributes" and always offer extre capabilities.

2. The cost-effectiveness of the goods is high, usually 30% better than those sold outside.

3. You can even buy beautiful, sexy, mixed-blood female slaves on board... (Fang Yu: What the hell?!)

Ahem...

For soone like Fang Yu, a gentleman usually only notices the first two points.

However, regardless, the Black Market Cargo Ship Pass is very tempting for Blue Star Captains!

Thinking of this, Fang Yu decisively compromised.

"Mr. Tang, you’re too kind, how could I accept this?" Fang Yu grinned as he snatched the pass from Tang Xian’s hand, afraid Tang Xian might regret it and take it back.

Tang Xian: ...

Alright, alright!

Nevertheless, Tang Xian was relieved.

As a businessman, Tang Xian keenly sensed that the Fang Yu Captain in front of him was soone who absolutely wouldn’t take a loss.

He previously exaggerated the number of Sand Crocodiles, tricking him a bit.

If he didn’t offer compensation that satisfied Fang Yu, it would be hard to peacefully resolve this issue.

Fortunately, Captain Fang Yu was very satisfied, making this a...

Win-win for everyone!

Fang Yu and Tang Xian exchanged a glance, Fang Yu’s face once again showing his approachable, amiable smile.

Tang Xian’s smile also beca honest and sincere.

Everyone was happy!

Leaving the other crew mbers stupefied.

Damn...

Where’s the sarcastic, seemingly threatening captain from earlier?

Where’s the sharp-eyed Tang Xian from just now?

Am I seeing things?!

ow ow ow?!

...

The task was successfully settled.

And with Fang Yu’s bargaining, they also received an extra Black Market Cargo Ship Pass.

At that mont, in everyone’s mind, the panel’s notification sounded:

"Task [Sand Crocodile Trouble] completed, everyone receives 250 experience points, and 300 Copper Coins."

"Captain receives 1 Level 1 Ship Cannon Modification Scroll and 1 Basic Black Market Cargo Ship Pass."

Hearing the voice in their minds, Fang Yu and his crew couldn’t help but show joyful expressions.

The crew gained experience, getting closer to the next level.

And Fang Yu finally obtained the cannon modification scroll he longed for.

This thing... in the early stage, is like the ultimate upgrade for a sea ship!

Who wouldn’t want to mount a cannon on their sea ship?

This represents a captain’s hard power when encountering sea events!

Only cannons are truly reliable!

With cannons, everything becos simpler.

If they encounter the Sand Crocodile leader again, there’s no need for the guys to rush in and brawl.

Just one shot, and the leader’s ashes will scatter for !

What?! Not dead with one shot?

Shoot again!

Blast until you’re dead!

Boom!!

Such a charming word, it sounds much better than the word ’shoot’.

From now on, Fang Yu’s sea ship truly has combat capability, no longer just a small cargo ship, but has beco a powerful... uh, cargo ship with a cannon.

Ahem... Fang Yu originally wanted to say warship.

But after thinking about it, he didn’t have the face to call it a warship outright.

Just... a cargo ship with a cannon will do.

Very fitting...

Next up was Fang Yu’s most anticipated...

The dice-rolling phase!
