Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 126 Cooperation
Su Wang drove the Wangxin towards the Silver Pomfret.

Duru stated that Lord Flo was in the port area at the moment, and the Pisces caravan had just arrived at the Silver Pomfret Wharf.

If you go there at this time, you can still catch the trade fair of the Pisces caravan.

Su Wang felt lucky when he heard this. He didn't expect to encounter the Pisces caravan when he came here to trade goods.

The Fool's Wharf needs to be upgraded to another level to meet the conditions for the Pisces Caravan to come and sell items.

While chatting with Du Lu along the way, Su Wang accidentally received a piece of information.

That is, the Pisces Caravan also received the task indicators issued by the Pisces Wharf this time.
Each Level 4 port is required to develop a new port offshore within the next six months to curb the further spread of pollution.

The reason seems to be the increase in the population of the inner sea area, coupled with the increasing number of docks captured by polluters, which has further reduced the living space of the local humans.

After hearing this news, Su Wang couldn't help but think about it.

It seems that Pisces Wharf, which has some connection with the sea people, is indeed carrying out the task of combating pollution.

It's just that it relies on other local ports under its rule and management.

Currently, Fool's Wharf is only level 3 and has not yet reached the conditions for connecting with Pisces Wharf.

If Su Wang had not heard this information from Du Lu's complaining chat, he would not have known that Pisces Wharf had issued this order.

And in Du Lu's complaints, Su Wang also heard the local port's rejection of this task.

The large-scale expansion of new docks can indeed increase the scope of safe waters for purification, but it will also divide the strength of local docks.

Moreover, although this measure can increase the scope of safe sea areas in the short term, it will also bring with it the problem of continuous attacks from polluters.

If the new dock cannot hold up, it will be conquered by the polluters and degenerate into one of them.

It can be seen from this that the human side at the mainland dock is in a very embarrassing and unfavorable situation.

If the docks are not further expanded, the pressure of natural population growth will lead to overpopulation at the rear docks.

Continuing to expand the docks and failing to resist polluters will further increase the number of polluters.

But the excess population must be accommodated somewhere.
Unless we are ruthless enough to curb population growth ourselves, such as abandoning residents who have reached a certain age and reducing the birth rate of newborns.

But this is undoubtedly no different from chronic extinction.

The key point leading to this phenomenon is the imbalance of power between polluters and local ports.

Su Wang had noticed this when he attacked and polluted the White Shark Wharf.

After all, a port that had just been conquered by pollution had as many as 10,000 or 20,000 polluting monster ships.

On the other hand, on the domestic side, a normal port can have a fleet of thousands of warships, which is already a good development.

Therefore, to capture a polluted dock, two docks must take the lead and attract some other dock fleets to offer rewards for joint operations.

A trace of gloom also arose in Su Wang's heart.

As the lips and teeth are interdependent, the vast majority of fishermen currently rely on local docks for survival.

It seems that the waters where the fishermen come are all near the mainland docks close to the edge.

The location where Fool's Wharf was built is also in the sea area close to the polluted area.

The decline of the local port is not good news for Su Wang.

...

Soon, the Wangxin and the welcoming fleet arrived at the waters near the Silver Pomfret Wharf.

Dozens of super-large Pisces sail ships docked outside the dock indicated that the Pisces caravan had not left at this time.

Then, Su Wang and Du Lu boarded the Silver Pomfret Pier together.

Before boarding the pier,
Su Wang specifically dismantled a mine facility on the bomber and the speed-increasing turbine facility on the Wangxin.

As for the fire control radar and stealth coating, they were not dismantled after thinking for a few seconds.

Arriving at the Silver Pomfret Harbor,
Su Wang first registered at the lighthouse and completed the bounty mission of 650 cannons.

Su Wang also immediately received information that a large amount of supplies were stored in the fish hold.

As for the extra 350 doors,
Dulu has gone to report to Lord Flo at the Silver Pomfret Wharf and issued an additional bounty mission to take up the remaining 350 cannons.

Soon,
Su Wang, who was waiting outside the lighthouse, saw an elderly man walking towards him accompanied by Du Lu.

Since the port was crowded with residents who came to buy goods,
This old man was guarded by many guards, and followed by several young people, who seemed to be the younger generations of the family.

Soon, a group of people came to Su Wang.

Judging from their temperament alone, Su Wang guessed that the old man in the lead was the current lord of Silver Pomfret Wharf.

Su Wang immediately went to meet him.

"I am Su Wang, the current lord of Fool's Wharf. It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Flo."

Lord Flo, who was already old, couldn't help but admire the young man in front of him.

"Hello, Lord Su Wang, I didn't expect that the Lord who could build a new dock would be so young."

As Lord Flo finished speaking, several young men from the family who followed him bowed respectfully and saluted.

"Hello, respected Lord Su Wang."

"Hello…"

Su Wang also nodded in return, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Half a month ago, if I wanted to meet someone from this family, I could only hide at the dock and wait and see.

However, at this time, the change in his identity has made him a person who is respected by people from these families.

At this time, Lord Flo spoke again.

"Lord Su Wang, I have already issued a bounty within the Dock Alliance for the 350 extra cannons you brought this time."

"But I heard from Dulu that you have other special ship facilities here?"

Su Wang nodded when he heard this.

At the same time, he pretended to pull out two fist-sized facility cores from his bosom and displayed them in his palms. "Lord Flo, I have a silver-level and a bronze-level special facility here. Take a look."

The reason why Su Wang agreed to meet with the lord of Silver Pomfret Wharf was that he wanted to build several more trading projects with facilities.

In the case of only the bronze mother-and-child cannon,

The benefits that can be generated can only meet the output of the Fool's Wharf fleet's cannons.

Each warship requires 6-8 cannons and various facilities.

In order to make a warship reach its peak condition, the materials required are too huge.

The profit from the bronze mother-and-child cannon alone could no longer meet Su Wang's expectations.

What's more, the silver and fish materials needed for the mutual aid warships are in short supply.

When Lord Flo saw the two facility cores in Su Wang's hands, he immediately reached out and took them, rubbing them carefully.

When he saw that both facilities had unique special abilities, Flo's old face suddenly showed surprise.

As the lord of the dock, he naturally saw the functions of the two types of ship facilities at a glance.

Of these two facilities, one is obviously very effective in building the defensive capabilities of the dock position, while the other can improve the maneuverability of the fleet.

"Lord Su Wang, does your dock have the capacity to mass-produce these two pieces of equipment?"

Lord Flo asked with some suspicion.

Naturally, he was attracted by these two facilities.

But also a little curious,

A scroll that can produce a large number of facilities, but only by capturing an extremely powerful pollution dock can you get the world's reward.

Su Wang heard Lord Flo's question and answered after pondering for two seconds.

“Our terminal can indeed produce in large quantities.”

The previous giant mother-and-child cannon had already surprised Lord Flo a little.

However, at this moment, I heard that Fool's Wharf still has two special ship facilities that can be mass-produced.

This couldn't help but shock Lord Flo secretly.

After hearing Du Lu's report earlier, he also knew that the young dock lord in front of him was dispersed from another dock.

However, what kind of dock can provide three mass-produced special scrolls for a newly built dock?
Flo couldn't help but suspect that the dock behind the young man in front of him might come from an ancient dock near the inner waters.

Only that kind of dock has the strength to penetrate into the deeply polluted sea area and take down the powerful polluting dock.

Thinking of this, Flo's gaze towards Su Wang became obviously different.

"Okay, okay. Since Lord Su Wang has already taken it out, he must be willing to sell it, right?"

Su Wang nodded naturally.

"Yes, if Lord Flo is interested in purchasing, these two facilities can also be traded."

After hearing this, Lord Flo immediately made the decision.

"Of course, but what are the prices for these two facilities?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wang informed him of the selling prices of the two facilities.

It is also priced at double the manufacturing demand.

However, this time Su Wang made a request, the same as the one he mentioned last time.

That is, if you want to trade, you must send a supply fleet from Silver Pomfret Wharf to Fool's Wharf.

And this time, it will no longer be done according to the original method of paying one-third in advance, but rather the amount of goods traded will be based on how much supplies you bring.

Su Wang had no choice but to propose this condition.

After all, he couldn't waste his time every day transporting goods to and from various docks.

However, the number of existing fleets at Fool's Wharf is too small, and it is too extravagant to use them as transport escort fleets.

At the moment, the only way to trade is to ask the other party to send resources first and then take away the goods.

After this trade, the two sides reached a level of trust for the first time.

It depends on whether the other party will agree to this request because of the high quality of the goods.

If you refuse to agree, the issue of trade may need to be considered more carefully.

When Lord Flo heard this condition, he looked thoughtful.

According to this transaction method, all risks of the round-trip journey will be borne by Silver Pomfret Terminal.

After all, whether transporting supplies or returning with goods, it is all done by the fleet at the Silver Pomfret Wharf.

But considering the strength enhancement brought by these special facilities, especially now we have received the target tasks issued by Pisces Wharf.

These facilities can provide significant support for the construction of new docks.

Lord Flo thought for a while and then agreed.

"Yes, but I hope your terminal can establish a cooperative relationship with Silver Pomfret Terminal."

"I heard from Dulu that your dock is located in the polluted sea area, and I have also received a request from Pisces Dock to build a new dock."

"If the new terminal is attacked by the polluter fleet, I hope your terminal can provide military assistance.

Of course, if there is a polluter invasion on Lord Su Wang's side, Silver Pomfret Wharf will also provide some assistance."
