Tudor said: "Follow the instructions of the high-level council, normal communication is enough, and small losses are allowed. As long as you don't suffer big losses, it won't be a big problem. The first civilized trade negotiation is equivalent to setting a price standard, which will affect subsequent Many years of exchange, so we can’t give away too much profit.”
Gondor across the screen nodded, "I understand."
You can't go over there and sign an unfair treaty, or you'll be impeached for nothing when you go back.
There is no peace within the Honggang people. There is also a lot of competition, including vicious competition.
Tudor said seriously: "Of course, giving away a batch of precious gifts is not a big problem."
"Business is business, friendship is friendship, the two cannot be confused."
"Well, that's not a bad idea. How many gifts have you decided to give?"
Tudor said: "I will send you a list of supplies later. It's actually quite a lot. Recently, I even added a batch of donated supplies. Maybe it's because your harvest there is too exaggerated..."
"It's so exaggerated that our trade volume here has become a fraction." Tudor's voice lowered, "I don't even dare to tell my subordinates about this, otherwise everyone's morale may disappear all of a sudden."
"Hahaha, it's okay not to say anything. It's important to maintain morale. Oh, and your mission is not light either."
He worked hard to accumulate merit, but in the end, it was still not as good as a single adventure of his elder brother.
Of course, such adventures do not happen often, and they can be incorporated into the legends of the Sea of Demon Gods. More often than not, they are swallowed by the abyss and the entire crew dies.
So I can’t even envy you.
"Since the high-level council has given instructions, I won't say anything more. I wish you all smooth sailing and a successful return." Gondor smiled, "Maybe in the future, we brothers can have a drink with that Excellency. liquor."
"Although he is wandering alone on the ocean, as long as he is not attacked by the devil, it shouldn't be a big problem! Anyway, he will definitely not die!"
"Haha, I'm looking forward to seeing him too."
After turning off the communication, Tudor breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Holding a bottle of alcoholic beverage, he drank leisurely.
He was quite relaxed.
Then, suddenly, another message came from the communicator, again from the base camp.
After seeing this message, his expression changed slightly.
The title of the message - "Wanhai Civilization Notice: Regarding the Gairanggai world community, there are suspected signs of a spreading disaster out of control." 》
The world community is very large, and it is quite difficult to explore without controlling advanced transportation.
The Honggang people have only explored about 5% of the community in this world for so many years.
In fact, most areas of the Demonic Sea are of little value. There are no special creatures or high-quality mineral veins. Apart from a few fish in the vast ocean, there is nothing else.
The most valuable thing is naturally the hidden worlds.
But the world hides itself, and civilizations must take the initiative to communicate. Most civilizations do not even have the ability to leave their cradle.
There is still a very high threshold for surviving in the Sea of Demon Gods. Some primitive civilizations, or civilizations with low racial values, will die as soon as they go to sea.
The strongest civilization in this community, called the "Wan Hai Civilization", is suspected of possessing extraordinary beings who control unique technologies related to advanced transportation and can already transcend world communities.
This notice was sent by Wan Hai Civilization.
This world community is called the "Gaiziran World Community", and the sea area next to it is called the "Gairanggai World Community". Well, it does sound quite awkward. I don't know what the rules of naming are. What, it’s probably just a sign anyway. .
Now the community next door is experiencing a spread of disaster, which is really worrying.
Of course, it is precisely because a world community is large enough that within a hundred-year scale, there is no need to worry too much.
If a person has no long-term worries, he must have immediate worries, and the same is true for a civilization. Wanhai Civilization issued this notice, in fact, just to consolidate its forces, so that if the disaster spreads, there would be a response plan.
"Well, it looks like the next trip to civilized trade will be difficult."
Tudor frowned and called several secretaries into the room to discuss the matter.
…
…
A month passed quickly. As the giant ship arrived at its destination, many soldiers from the Honggang Civilization stood on a high place and looked into the distance. They saw a small island and ships floating on the sea. ship.
This is the sign of intelligent civilization!
When I thought about setting foot on solid ground, my tense nerves seemed to relax all of a sudden.
But their good discipline allowed them to remain calm and serious.
But my heart was beating wildly, but I couldn't suppress it no matter what.
On the other side, the snake people and human delegations stood on their own ships.
Comrade Wang Fumin, the strongest man on earth, was the first to set foot on the island. He looked at the big ship coming from afar and had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
"When will humans have the strength to complete a century-long ocean journey?"
I don’t know, and I don’t dare to think about it. After all, a hundred years is too long for human beings. Every time it comes, their relatives are almost dead.
At least the current Lao Wang, who is only over 160 years old, is still enjoying the happiness of his family.
He seems to be unable to bear this separation of life and death...
"Mr. Wang, your progress over the past hundred years is really rapid...your race is really full of geniuses!" A snake-man archon stuck out his long and slender tongue and chatted casually beside him. Snake people have been in contact with Honggang people for a long time, and the atmosphere is indeed quite leisurely.
They saw the rise of Lao Wang.
When we first met, Lao Wang was just a strong man who had broken through two levels of human limits - in fact, he was not considered a strong man, he could only be said to have barely passed.
But in less than a hundred years, he has already climbed to the master level!
Anyway, in the eyes of the snake people civilization, he can be regarded as a first-class strong man.
(Hey, these snake people really don’t know what happened to the earth... they almost became extinct. Fighting every day, can they not become stronger?)
Lao Wang sighed, but did not dare to tell the truth: "As you know, we humans are only a very young civilization, and we are just a little lucky."
"As for the scale of talent, it still cannot be compared with an established civilization like yours."
"Your civilization is also very helpful."
While the Snake Man Archon was envious, he helped a lot and made a "hissing" sound from his mouth. The "good luck" in Lao Wang's mouth was naturally that extraordinary person.
How many detours can be avoided if a transcendent person appears for no reason and contributes to civilization?
"How is that person doing lately?"
"Haha, he is an old man like Xianyun Yehe. He doesn't know where to make friends." Wang Fumin smiled bitterly in his heart. Did he dare to say that Lao Zhang was dead? He doesn't dare!
He didn't even dare reveal the news to the human community.
Because people's instinctive actions will reflect some subconscious characteristics, if some diplomats or translators feel guilty during the visit, or show some psychological actions and are seen by other civilizations, it will be really unpleasant. Something happened.
"Don't worry too much." The snake man seemed to see something, and felt that Lao Wang was a little nervous, so he couldn't help but explain, "Honggang people have a very generous temper, and they don't care about some trivial etiquette at all, as long as they prepare good wine. That’s it.”
"Of course, if you show any special forging skills, they will be very happy."
The snake people naturally prepared good wine. As a civilization with unique biotechnology, it is absolutely no problem to come up with some good wine.
As for humans, well, humans don’t know their own wine. Honggang people like to drink it or not. They have a lot of Maotai, Lafite, vodka and the like. Anyway, just make do with it, whichever one likes. , whichever one is supplied.
While chatting like this, the giant steel ship finally arrived at the port.
"Boom, boom"
The huge anchor slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
The steam engine, slowly extinguished.
After the ship stopped, Tudor walked down with a group of senior officials behind him, with a rich smile on his face: "Hello, my old friends! I can smell the aroma of alcohol from afar. It's not a waste of time for us to spend time with you." I’ve been coming here for so long just to have this meal!”
The nervousness suddenly disappeared, and it was obvious that this guy was pretty good at talking.
Wang Fumin and the snake people rushed forward to greet him.
This island was built through 50 years of cooperation between humans and snake people. It can accommodate the daily living of about 50,000 people. If it is more crowded, 70,000 to 80,000 people will be fine.
There are excellent seabed mineral veins nearby, and a considerable amount of minerals can be mined every day.
Humans and snake people can also engage in some scientific research activities on the island, such as mutant rice breeding, animal breeding, soldier training, martial arts competitions, cultural exchanges, etc., all can be carried out here.
Because the interests are so great and foreign civilizations are involved, humans are basically advancing with global force.
Even during the most difficult period of the "Invasion of World Hunters", humans on the human side were just trying to build up by pretending to be fat.
After going through that period of hardship, we finally came to a fruitful period, and our relationship with the snake people gradually improved - who doesn't want to have a kind neighbor with excellent infrastructure capabilities and the ability to share risks?
Well, peace-oriented and peace-loving!
After Tudor set foot on this land, he admired the 2.3 square kilometers of the island and estimated the amount of work in his mind. It was 2.3 square kilometers of the Sea of Demon Gods. It was really not small!
He also vaguely mentioned the matter of His Excellency the Extraordinary One, claiming that "Your Excellency the Extraordinary One and my brother are close friends of life and death."
Wang Fumin had no choice but to suppress the fervent curiosity of these guys with the excuse that "Your Excellency the Extraordinary One, the wandering clouds and wild cranes are still floating slowly outside, and we don't know where exactly they went."
