The Cursed Ship

Alima said: "You can get a stable salary. This part of the expenditure is included in the overall cost, and you account for 10% of the final income. You have to understand that if the quality of the wine you make is not good, we may still lose money."

"I want 30% of the final proceeds. My wine is definitely good wine, no worse than a bottle of 1 million crystal coins on the market!" The man said proudly.

Alima calculated that a bottle of 1 million crystal coins is equivalent to 100 white crystals, which can only be regarded as low-end in the market of spiritual energy wine. One must know that Zhonghai's most expensive top-level psionic wine sells for 1,000 red crystals, but that is 100,000 white crystals.

However, a bottle of 100 white crystals is also the main variety in the spiritual energy wine market, and it is suitable for production on a small island like Mana Island.

"Thirty percent is too much, we are responsible for too many tasks, and it is not easy for spiritual materials alone!" Lao Shi said.

"That... two and a half percent, no less. My formula and wine-making technology are not cheap either."

"Twenty percent, if you agree, we'll settle it!" Alima said, "I have a batch of spiritual energy materials in my hand, and I will hand them over to Lao Shi for safekeeping. When you can really start making wine, ask him to withdraw!"

"...Well, the premise is that you are really the controllers of Mana Island and do everything you just said."

...

Although a cooperation agreement has been reached, it is still far from the real output. Even if the first batch of wine is brewed with the purchased raw materials, it will take more than a few months, so Zheng Yang just pays attention to it and ignores it.

Mana Island has appeared in the eyes of the strange eye, and Zheng Yang saw a cargo fleet entering the port, which consisted of three cargo ships and three four-level pseudo-spiritual ship escorts.

That is the fleet that transports raw materials for production. Some overpopulated islands have limited production sites, so companies have to set up production lines on such remote islands and then ship out the finished products. So Mana Island is not without employment opportunities. In addition to the copper mining industry controlled by Assal, there are also some manufacturing industries here.

That is, the cost of shipping by sea will be much higher. If you encounter an evil attack above level 5, it is very easy to cause losses.

Ten minutes later, the Princess Alice berthed at the port pier.

The island was originally run directly by the family, and it was managed by the supernatural beings of the collateral line. It established a government affairs system with reference to the unified system under the Federation Council. The title of the highest administrative person in charge of the island is not called the island owner, but the governor just like the sea.

The current governor, the fifth-level transcendent of the collateral line, has received a transfer order from the family. At this time, he personally came to the port to meet Zheng Yang, the eldest son of the direct line. But Zheng Yang didn't intend to manage Mana Island himself. After introducing Lao Shi to him, Lao Shi followed him to the Governor's Mansion for handover.

The governor in name is also held by Lao Shi, and after the handover, he only needs to report to the General Administration Department under the Federation Council.

This is how the power of the islands under the control of various forces is changed, and they are replaced directly without the appointment of the General Administration. Only a small number of islands controlled by the grassroots will conduct complicated elections and appointments in accordance with the procedures within the system.

"I left the fire scale squid entrenched on the nearby seabed, contact me if you need to use it!"

Zheng Yang passed the message to Lao Shi, and at the same time, with a thought, the fire-scaled squid that hadn't run a third of the way disintegrated, and the true spirit returned to the spirit ship, consuming 50,000 points of spiritual energy to reshape it.

The wine-making team left with Lao Shi, and Zheng Yang unloaded Thomas's goods to the cargo area, and went to the streets with his parents and others to "observe the people's sentiments."

After "observing" for more than an hour, they entered a tavern.

The tavern is always indispensable in the seaport. It is a place for people to relax and adjust their mind and body after a long sea voyage, and it is also the main place for information exchange.

Although the captains can brag on the public channel, it is nothing like ordering a glass of wine in a tavern to brag face to face, especially when the tavern has beautiful waitresses and various performances.

Although the taverns at this time were not as chaotic and vulgar as the harbor taverns in the Middle Ages, they were still more presumptuous than other public places. It is still common for guests to slap the waiter's ass, super-coaxing and molesting.

This tavern has more than 200 square meters, which is relatively large. The arrangement inside is not like a booth in a bar, but long tables, each of which can seat more than 20 people.

Even though it was still morning, the boat runners would not care about this. When Zheng Yang and others came in, there were already thirty or forty people sitting inside. As soon as they came in, the boisterous and boisterous place instantly fell silent.

It's not that there are no women in this kind of tavern, but it's rare for Zheng Yang and the others to have only three men with a group of women. Especially among this group of women, except for a middle-aged woman who is relatively ordinary, all of them, no matter how big or small, are all stunning.

That ordinary woman is the cook.

Marylou is blond, fair-skinned, and looks as good as Alima, so she can't be ordinary.

There were three staff members, two men and one woman, at the counter. One of the men was a middle-aged man. The two young men and women are dressed as waiters, their identities are self-evident.

Apart from these three people, there was movement in the kitchen at the back, obviously someone else was there.

The manager of the tavern is tall and has a bit of a burly appearance. He is the type who can control the place better by his image. When he saw Zheng Yang and his group coming in, he was also taken aback.

These people are not ordinary people just by their clothes and temperament. So he immediately put on a smiling face and greeted him personally:

"Welcome, what do the guests want? Besides drinks, we also have milk, eggs, steak, grilled fish, salad, and slices of bread."

The pretty-looking, slender waitress also came over, stretching out her hand to guide them to an empty long table.

Zheng Lin waved his hand: "All food, two servings of each item first... no, three servings each!"

Marylou kicked him: "Your son is talking about things, who are you?"

Zheng Lin is helpless, the family status is going from bad to worse. Zheng Yang said with a smile: "Mom, don't bully my dad all the time... Well, for all the food, get three servings of each item, and take another bottle of wine."

"What kind of wine do you want? We have..."

"A bottle of one thousand crystals will do!" Zheng Yang interrupted the waitress' introduction, he just wanted to compare the batch of wine he brought.

At home on the main island, Marylou and Zheng Lin drank psionic wine every day, worth 10 white crystals a bottle. After Zheng Yang drank it, his mouth was twitched immediately. He couldn't drink the batch of wine he had brought, so he had to find a place to get rid of it.

Seeing that Zheng Yang only ordered a bottle of Qianjing, someone chuckled at the other two long tables, and then the other two tables were no longer quiet, and slowly became lively again.

"My friend, with so many beautiful girls, it's too disrespectful to drink a thousand crystals of ordinary wine. You should drink spiritual energy wine!" A skinny young man stood up and said to Zheng Yang.
