The sea ship continued its voyage. With their first upgrade experience, these four first-ti sailors gained imnse confidence.
The group was invigorated, especially after learning that Ma acquired a resource-based leader skill, which made them overjoyed.
Once this mission is settled, they’ll earn 100 Copper Coins?
You know, Du Ran’s monthly salary is only 200 Copper Coins.
The fortune of a leader skill is equivalent to half a month’s salary?
That’s sweet!
The purchasing power of 100 Copper Coins is quite high.
As long as it doesn’t involve the extraordinary, the prices in this world aren’t really high.
Previously, Fang Yu had Luu Yuan prepare the seafaring supplies.
Food for 4 people for 3 days of sailing, plus blankets, toothbrushes, even slippers and fishing rods, all total around 100 Copper Coins.
For soone not going to sea, a common citizen can live on 200-300 Copper Coins a month.
But of course... none of the people who entered this world from Blue Star want to just live an ordinary life.
With the panel, everyone feels like they’re the main character, like they’re Long Aotian.
Eager to turn this world upside down.
If it weren’t for the extrely high dangers of the open sea, and each person having only one life, Blue Star sailors would’ve gone crazy by now.
Fang Yu thought for a mont and decided to give his ship a bold na.
[Salted Fish]!
The three crew mbers: ...
That na... sure fits the captain’s style...
But... why does it feel a bit downcast?!
How about we take a vote?
But Fang Yu, being quite authoritarian, waved his hand, and suddenly, the ship bore three big golden characters that couldn’t be washed off.
The three crew mbers slapped their heads and sighed.
But thinking about the captain’s rits, they could sort of turn a blind eye to those three words.
"Once we grow bigger and stronger, we’ll sail this ship to the extraordinary seas and show off in front of all the experts!"
Fang Yu bead with satisfaction at his actions.
The other three: ...
Alright, if you’re happy, that’s fine.
...
As the ship sailed along, the 900 nautical mile distance took about two days.
Fang Yu and the others finally arrived at Ningtong Port on the morning of the third day with their goods.
Using the address Wang Dong gave him, Fang Yu quickly had the Salted Fish docked at a port in the dedicated cargo area.
Several old captains passing by instinctively glanced at Fang Yu’s cargo ship, and were montarily blinded by the three golden characters on it.
Wow, not mincing words with us at all.
...
"Are you Mr. Li Kangshi? I’m the captain of this special cargo ship, Fang Yu!"
Once Fang Yu had the ship docked at the port, he saw a man approach him, and he couldn’t help but call out loudly.
"Yes, hello, Captain Fang Yu, I’ll have soone inspect the goods, and if all is good, I’ll settle the paynt with you!"
Li Kangshi looked like a vigorous middle-aged man, wearing a sailor’s uniform with his back upright.
He quickly instructed his employees to count the goods on the Salted Fish, and once everything checked out, he smiled at Fang Yu: "No problems, Captain Fang Yu, I’ll settle the paynt for you right away!"
"The total is 1,380 tons of cargo, I’ll round it up to 1,400 tons for you; here, that’s 4,200 Copper Coins."
With Li Kangshi’s voice echoing, Fang Yu soon heard the panel’s voice in his mind:
"Delivery mission complete, reward: 80 experience points, 4,200 coins."
"Leader skill activated, captain earns 200 Copper Coins, crew earns 100 Copper Coins."
Fang Yu quietly rolled the dice in his hand, but to his disappointnt... the dice ended up at 2.
Double.
experience points, 8,400 Copper Coins!
Even so, Fang Yu felt a surge of energy, thoroughly satisfied.
He’s rich! Really rich!
And even the experience increased by 160 points.
Only 40 experience points away from leveling up from 2 to 3.
Including the rewards from fishing during the voyage, Fang Yu has about 8,800 Copper Coins in hand.
Compared to the beginning, when he could only take loose cargo and barely earn a thousand Copper Coins per trip, Fang Yu’s progress has already far surpassed that of an average captain.
He was pleased and called over the crew, looking at them, then took out 600 Copper Coins, giving each of them 200.
"I want you to know that following , your salary will just be the smallest part of your earnings. When I make money, the brothers will feast and drink well too!"
Fang Yu loudly stated, sincerely painting the picture.
Although... the bonus given was less than one-tenth of the total bonus...
But, so what?
The extra money I earn from my plug-ins, that’s my ability!
Indeed, the three crew mbers were very receptive to Fang Yu’s approach. Already having gained an extra 100 Copper Coins each thanks to Ma’s passive skill, with Fang Yu distributing bonuses, their gain suddenly jumped from 100 to 300 Copper Coins.
This promise was tempting!
The three were secretly delighted and started planning how to spend their newfound wealth.
With their salary, the three already had enough money to buy so... firearms!
Firearms... are the hard currency of sailing; to ensure safety, firearms are essential!
Every sailor, even soone like Du Ran, endowed with natural strength, must rely on firearms for self-defense before acquiring extraordinary power in the early stages.
No matter what happens.
Guns and cannons, forever the truth!
Fang Yu glanced at the eager trio, guessing their little plans, but he didn’t mind. Instead, he instructed Du Ran to lead the other two in unloading the goods, and then they could have so free ti.
He planned to stay in Ningtong Port for two days.
One day for unloading, the other to wander around.
Sailing is quite monotonous; once the ship docks, the crew deserves so ti off.
Even Fang Yu would relax a bit.
Having earned money, you must spend so, right?
After that, Fang Yu planned to see if he could take on any cargo headed back to Qiyun Port.
Although the ship floats everywhere and has no fixed place, an old captain once said it’s best to designate a fixed port as the main place for taking cargo.
On the one hand, Qiyun Port was where Fang Yu and others of the sa batch of sailors arrived, with many Blue Star sailors up there, making recruitnt and trade more convenient.
On the other hand... if you can consistently serve a port, there will be more opportunities to secure collaboration contracts.
Simply put, a collaboration contract ans signing directly with the trade firm, cutting out the middlen and allowing the ship to earn more, with richer experience rewards.
A special cargo is the sa as the benefit from two loose cargo loads.
But a collaboration contract is different; having access to the top trade associations with deep pockets could even result in 5-10 tis the benefit. Who wouldn’t be tempted?
Deeply cultivating Ningtong Port and gradually building connections there, sooner or later, you will gradually connect with the top trade associations at Ningtong Port...
