For the current Dafei, the most important thing was to complete the Leviathan Mission as soon as possible to avoid any more problems. Not to mention that there was still the noble mission of washing feet waiting for him. Therefore, Dafei missed the generous conditions of 1,500 units of tribute from the Dark Tide Temple Director. After knowing that the tribute was not easy to come by, he was not willing to miss the conditions now.
Therefore, Dafei immediately agreed to the conditions of the City Lord.
Thunder Halberd City Lord was overjoyed, "Then Warriors, let's sign the Sea God Contract. This way, our contract will take effect."
As he spoke, he took out a golden sea beast skin, "Warriors, please take a look and sign if you are satisfied."
Dafei quickly looked at the contract:
— The City Lord of the City of the Lighthouse Islands, Dafei, is willing to use the ownership of the Lighthouse Islands as collateral to owe Thunder Halberd City Lord 1000 units of Sea God's tribute on credit. The tribute will be returned after a year with additional interest of 10000 units of pearls. If Dafei, the City Lord of the City of the Lighthouse Islands, cannot complete the contract as agreed, the territory will be awarded to Thunder Halberd City Lord by the Sea God Adjudicator. At the same time, during the conclusion of the contract, both parties are in a friendly trade relationship with each other and are not allowed to attack each other. Once one party initiates an attack, it will be regarded as a breach of contract …
Dafei's eyebrows twitched! It doesn't matter if it's on credit or interest. Anyway, the City of the Lighthouse Islands has been contracted out. Even if the sky falls, the major guilds will bear it together. The key is the last sentence of "not attacking each other". Does that mean that once this contract is signed, I can't attack him? This is equivalent to keeping him safe for a year?
While Dafei was shocked, Thunder Halberd City Lord smiled and said, "Although there are 10000 units of interest, the wine Warriors transported should be able to sell for a good price. It can offset part of the interest. However, I suggest that Warriors don't rush to pay the interest first. Instead, use the first money you earn as a starting capital …"
That's it? Sometimes, when things were going too smoothly, Dafei would feel uncomfortable all over. Dafei always felt that he should negotiate a price or something. Although there were so many big guilds supporting him, he shouldn't put so much pressure on everyone, right?
Dafei coughed and said, "Erm, Thunder Halberd City Lord, can you make it cheaper?"
Thunder Halberd City Master immediately shook his head. "I can't let it be cheap. Under normal circumstances, if I lend out the Sea God Tributes, the interest I receive should be the Sea God Tributes. I admire the Warriors' willingness to maintain a friendly relationship with the Warriors, so I'm using normal pearls as interest. I'm already at a disadvantage."
F * ck, bargaining is a kind of attitude and a kind of pleasure. I don't necessarily have to take advantage of you. The key is that you don't give in at all. This makes me, who has the intention to bargain, feel very frustrated, okay? Dafei remembered that he had already snatched more than 200 units of Sea God's tributes from George, so there was no need to borrow 1,000.
Therefore, Dafei asked again, "If I only borrow 800 units of Sea God's tributes, how much interest will it be?"
Thunder Halberd City Master smiled and said, "Then let's go according to the ratio. How about 8,000 units of pearls?"
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. Actually, he can still bargain? However, Dafei suddenly remembered that the Sea God Priest Heliana had also reminded him before he set off. Because he didn't know the Leviathan's preferences, 1,000 units was only the minimum. To be on the safe side, the more, the better.
If that's the case, I'll just borrow as much as I want? After all, this kind of diplomatic opportunity to quickly obtain a large number of tributes might not come again if I missed it. I must make good use of this opportunity.
Dafei's heart moved, and he said seriously, "Sir Mayor, the Leviathan's temper is fickle. I don't know if 1,000 units can satisfy her. To be on the safe side, I want to borrow 2,000 units. Sir Mayor, please allow me!"
After saying that, Dafei immediately bowed deeply to him. Playing the game to this extent, Dafei was really going all out.
Thunder Halberd City Master was indeed silent for a while, and he finally said, "What the Warriors said makes some sense, but 2,000 units of Sea God Tributes is no small matter."
Sure! I'm not afraid of his conditions, I'm afraid that he won't lend!
Dafei gritted his teeth and said, "But Sir Mayor, this is the crucial moment to prove our friendship!"
Thunder Halberd City Master nodded. "How about this. Since the Warriors want to borrow an additional 1,000 units of Sea God Tributes, it's not impossible, but the interest has to be handled according to the normal rules. One year later, you have to return me 1,000 units of Sea God Tributes as interest. In other words, if I lend you 2,000 units of Sea God Tributes, one year later, you have to return me 3,000 units of Sea God Tributes and 10000 units of pearls. How about that?"
Dafei slapped his thighs. "Alright! Let's do that! Let's sign the contract! "
Thunder Halberd City Master laughed. "Alright, sign the contract. I believe that with the Leviathan protecting the Warriors, the Warriors will definitely be able to repay me easily!"
Dafei smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, Sir!"
The beast skin flashed, and the contract was officially signed! At this moment, Dafei and all the citizen shareholders of the Lighthouse Islands received a message at the same time:
— System Notification: The City of the Lighthouse Islands has established a friendly trade relationship with Thunder Halberd City and signed the Sea God Contract. You owe 3,000 units of Sea God Tributes and 10000 units of pearls. Please pay them back within one year. Otherwise, the City of the Lighthouse Islands will belong to Thunder Halberd City.
At this moment, the Ninth Heaven of Stars and the Blood Myrtle Royals were all shocked! Not because of the debt, but because they didn't even know what the debt was! Of course, everyone knew a little about the pearls, but what was the Sea God Tributes?
For a moment, Dafei's friend notifications kept flashing!
Dafei sighed in his heart. That's right, I used everyone's wine to do business, but I didn't even have time to split the profits. Instead, I ended up owing a huge debt! The key was that this debt was clearly for my personal gain, so I had to make everyone pay it back. It couldn't be helped. Who asked me to be the chairman without anyone supervising me? More importantly, who would dare to suggest supervising me? Like Xiao Li and Xiao Fang in God's Punishment City, they were all connected to Blood Myrtle's headquarters and monitored in all aspects. Don't even think about it.
Even though Dafei was thick-skinned, he still couldn't help but open the message from Blood Myrtle's chairman nervously. "Brother Fei, what's with this debt? What is this Sea God Tributes? "
Dafei coughed dryly and immediately used the excuse he had thought of long ago: "This Thunder Halberd City is the most prosperous and powerful city in the Eastern Sea Region. This is the protection fee I owe them. Otherwise, everyone will vomit shit when they get robbed by pirates in the Eastern Sea Region. I believe that with the strength of so many guilds, it won't be a problem to pay off the protection fee in a year. As for the Sea God Tributes — "
Dafei directly drew a picture. "It's a very high-end item. This is everyone's goal in the future! Everything else is just fleeting clouds! "
Rosa Sanguinea was stunned on the spot. "It can actually add attributes!"
Then, Dafei explained to his friends one by one. As expected, he had done something wrong.
Now that the contract was signed, Thunder Halberd City Lord was in a good mood. "Warriors, these 2000 units of tributes will be sent to your ship immediately. I have something urgent to do underwater, let's meet next time! "
Dafei laughed dryly. "Okay, next time!"
Just as Thunder Halberd City Lord was about to enter the water, he suddenly turned back. "Oh right, let me remind Warriors that 2000 units of Sea God Tributes is not a small amount. Even if Warriors obtain the empire's sea trade rights, there might be other lords who will harm you. Warriors, be careful."
Dafei's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly said, "Thank you, City Lord, for the reminder!"
The City Lord's last sentence was a reminder to Dafei. But fortunately, he had obtained a Great Army Teleportation Scroll from the Kingdom of the Elves to deal with such a situation. It could transport troops and supplies, but not ships.
Just in case, I'll use it. Everything needs to be stable now. Yes, I'll send Anlícia, the deputy city lord of Light City, to transport it back and complete Leviathan's mission in advance! But this also meant that she would have to end this voyage prematurely. But it doesn't matter. Once I'm done with this wave, it'll be about time to end this voyage.
Under the escort of the guards, Dafei returned to the harbor. At this moment, there was a large group of Fishmen escorted by Naga warriors, transporting the Sea God Tributes onto the ship.
There's obviously not enough space. It's time to sell alcohol! As for selling alcohol, it's better to let Deirdre sell it for her to rush to level 50! As long as she passes level 50, she will become an official Hero and no one will have to worry about her dying!
