Chapter 788: Chapter 638, it might work Chapter 788: Chapter 638, it might work “To be used as ingredients.” Wu Heng wrapped his arms around her waist, the chaise lounge rocking slightly, and then asked, “Which merchant guild have you arranged it for?”
Shanaela lay sideways in his arms and said, “The agreement hasn't been signed yet, but the choices are limited to three–the Wood Elves, the Elf Race, and the Dwarf Tribe. They all own vast forests and can offer better prices, and the Dwarf Race is also good at handling these kinds of gathering orders.”
Especially the Wood Elves, who have an advantage in orders involving plants.
They also possess elixirs that can promote plant growth, which are quite good in terms of price and quality.
“Then let's give it to the Wood Elves and the Elf Race, and have it transported over as soon as possible,” Wu Heng decided directly.
The trade caravans of these two races have good reputations and scale.
Cooperating with them would be more secure.
Shanaela grabbed his hand, which had already climbed onto her chest, and placed it back on her waist, “Then it'll be the Starflowers from the Wood Elves and the Silverleaf caravan from the Elf Race. When I return, I'll sign the agreements with them and get the gathering and transport underway as soon as possible.”
“You've worked hard,” Wu Heng held her, tightening his grip slightly.
Shanaela smiled, “Not at all, I've had many people coming to visit me lately. It feels quite flattering.”
Wu Heng also smiled, “You still care about such things?”
“How could I not?” Shanaela lifted her head to look at him, “This morning, the Elder's Council even sent me a letter.”
“What did it say?” Wu Heng's eyebrows arched.
The Elder's Council stripped Shanaela of her power, appointing an honorary president. It was their decision.
From the perspective of the Wood Elves, it's somewhat understandable.
After all, it's a racial merchant guild. The president, because of the effects of the Special Item, is deeply in love with a human man, which makes it hard not to speculate if it would affect the entire race's interests.
But from Shanaela's perspective, her decades of hard work were taken away directly.
It still didn't sit well with her.
It was like nurturing a potted plant, and just when the flower was in full bloom, someone came and took it away, pot and all.
Shanaela looked slightly smug, “The letter started with some words of concern, and later they inquired about the three exhibits at the fair, wanting to give the Starflowers some convenience.”
“I thought they had regrets!”
“They didn't say it outright, but they are definitely feeling some regret for not having supported us properly at that time,” Shanaela said.
“How did you reply?” Wu Heng asked.
“I didn't. I just threw it aside. With so many eyes watching, how could I possibly give them any convenience? Besides, business on Gold and Silver Island is just starting; outside credibility is very important,” Shanaela said with a laugh.
Wu Heng laughed and looked straight into her eyes, and Shanaela gazed back affectionately.
He lifted her with force, drawing her into a kiss.
Next to them, the housekeeper stood, her eyes fixed straight ahead.
Shanaela lifted her head again, “When will the watch be released?”
“It can go on sale tomorrow. The price will remain as previously set,” Wu Heng said.
A week had passed since the fair, and any further delay might render the representatives of the merchant guilds on the island impatient.
After all, it was all existing stock; selling it sooner or later didn't make much of a difference.
Shanaela nodded and continued, “The Strengthening Potion will be scheduled to release after the watches, and then we can hold an auction.”
“That's fine. The auction will rely on you to arrange, as we are not familiar with that aspect,” Wu Heng said.
“Okay, that's not difficult.”
The two settled the matters.
Shanaela yawned and got up from the chaise lounge.
She tidied up her skirt and said, “I'm going to go back and sign the agreement with the guild.”
Wu Heng helped her adjust the back of her dress, “Will you come over tonight?”
Shanaela glanced back and winked, “It depends.”
After speaking, she left with her housekeeper.
After Shanaela left.
Wu Heng, in the courtyard, took out the blueprint of the electromagnetic cannon and continued to assemble the parts.
About half an hour passed.
The courtyard's gate was knocked on again.
Robey ran out of the room to open the door, and Philippa, with a green parrot on her shoulder, swaggered in.
She glanced at Wu Heng, who was sitting on the lounge chair.
She shooed the parrot off her shoulder and settled into his arms, “Dad, you were looking for me?”
“Move up a bit.” Wu Heng patted her waist and nudged her upwards before saying, “The Storm Pirate Group, have you heard of it?”
Philippa frowned and thought for a bit, “I haven't heard of it, is it a recent pirate group?”
“No, according to Xi Ligui, it's a pirate group from the seas outside, and they're quite large, a major pirate group,” Wu Heng explained.
Philippa's eyes suddenly brightened, and she turned to him, “Does that mean I can go to sea?”
“I've discussed it with Xi Ligui. Indeed, we need you to take a trip to sea and eliminate this pirate group.”
“That's great, I finally get to go out to sea.” Philippa clenched her fist, her face full of excitement.
“From what we know, there are five warships, the leader is at level 17, and he might have already reached level 18. On board, there's a type of flying troops called harpies, and their level should be around ten,” Wu Heng recited the intelligence he knew.
“Harpies?” Philippa looked at him seriously, “Do you want me to capture them alive? To bring them back for you to play with?”
Wu Heng abruptly paused in what he was about to say, “I appreciate the thought, but I prefer the normal ones.”
“Oh, I'll see if they're normal first.” Philippa suddenly realized.
Continuing, Wu Heng said, “Depart tonight. Pilot that escort ship, and take some skeletons with you.”
“Then I'll go back and get ready. I'll also inform Millicent.”
“Before you set off, make a trip to the association. Xi Ligui will arrange for a vice-executive and a small team to accompany you.”
Philippa was somewhat reluctant, “Why bring them along? I want to take Shanaela with me.”
“Shanaela is responsible for the exhibition on the island and can't go with you. Xi Ligui arranged this probably because she wants to mix with us and earn some merit on fugitives. It's all our own people, take them along,” Wu Heng said flatly.
When he said that, the idea of leading a vice-executive to earn merit made her feel a bit proud.
Reluctantly saying, “Fine, for your sake, I'll let them come along, but they have to listen to me.”
“Agreed,” Wu Heng said with a smile and nodded.
“Which route? I'll get ready when I return.”
“Jasik Route. Let me know when you arrive, and I'll help you locate the pirate ship,” said Wu Heng.
“Okay, I'll head out then. I'll keep you company when I'm back,” Philippa said as she swung her body and leaped up.
She called for the parrot to come back, and then left, bouncing away.
Wu Heng continued to look over the blueprints in the courtyard.
As evening set in, he went back to his room to have dinner.
Night fell.
Shanaela did not come over.
Wu Heng lay on the bed, arms behind his head, and began to think about the subsequent plans.
“First, I want to get Glenda to level 20 and see what changes occur when a ghost reaches that level.”
“Then there's the development of Gold and Silver Island, the battleships from South Korea; it's not likely there's only one. There should be more, and they can all be transferred here to Gold and Silver Island to enhance our defenses.”
“I wonder if it's possible to switch the fuel to electricity; this oil consumption is also a burden.”
Now, various fuel stations can be used at will, but relying on my own transportation to the Otherworld is still a bit troublesome.
If it could be switched to electricity, then charging would be a lot easier.
“No, that's too limited in thinking. If I could establish a separate power station inside the ship that doesn't burn fuel and can operate continuously.”
Wu Heng's eyes suddenly lit up, “That might just be feasible.”
