When Lafayette descended from the sky to help Maud block a wave of attacks from the Blue Pheasant, it was also an important opportunity for Maud to come together with Lafayette.
Maud looked at Ford and said: "Thomas Shipyard will report the progress to me in real time. Judging from the current progress, it will take about ten days."
"Yeah… "
Fute wrung his fingers, calculating the time for the beast fighting competition and the new ship to leave the factory.
About ten days.
But there is only one week left in the schedule of the Beast Fighting Competition.
Unless Thomas Shipyard can help the Mod Pirates build a new ship three days in advance.
otherwise…
No matter what the final outcome is, it is not something they can intervene in.
Thinking of this, Fute relaxed his mind.
Some things cannot be rushed after all.
The slight change in Futna's expression that flashed across his face was keenly noticed by Maud.
You only need to slightly assume the position and position of the Revolutionary Army to understand some of the urgent needs of the Revolutionary Army in this plan.
However, from the time of contact to the present, Ford has never put these urgent needs on the table, giving Maud a vague sense of humility.
It was as if... he was afraid of making Maude unhappy and thereby losing a crucial and important opportunity.
Maud could see it, but she could only turn a blind eye.
The prerequisite for action is that the new ship leaves the factory, otherwise they will never take the initiative to cause trouble.
After a while, Maud saw off Fort and Catherine.
Before the plan is implemented, the two parties will not rush to meet again.
Jaya went to the market to buy ingredients, and Jim and Bailey went with her.
Maud and Lafayette were the only two people left in the hotel room.
Mod summoned the hunter's notebook and wrote the target information provided by the revolutionary army into the hunter's notebook one by one.
Lafayette stood to one side, watching calmly as Maude copied the information.
Before that, he had not expected that the Revolutionary Army would be so efficient in bringing this information to Mod.
In a sense, the Revolutionary Army can be regarded as a trading partner that is very compatible with them.
However, this kind of thing can only be done in private.
After a long time, Maude stopped writing and immediately removed the hunter's notebook.
"Hoo ho."
Without Maud's instructions, Lafayette bent down and took away the intelligence documents on the table and went to the kitchen to destroy them.
A few minutes later, Lafayette came out of the kitchen.
"Lafayette, I'd like to ask you to go to the shipyard later."
Maude pointed to a black suitcase not far away, which contained 150 million beli to be paid to Thomas Shipyard.
"no problem."
Lafayette glanced at the suitcase and agreed.
He came to the sofa and sat down.
"Maud, the money is enough now, do you still want Bailey to continue competing?"
"Let's take a look. If the first game of the semi-finals is against Conan of the Fang Pirates, then Bailey will just forfeit."
According to the information provided by the Revolutionary Army, Mod already knew that the animal-type user who took advantage of the opportunity to participate in the beast-fighting competition was Conan, the vice-captain of the Fang Pirates, with a bounty of up to 75 million.
An opponent with such strength is not something Bailey can handle.
As for the other fighting beast that stood out from the 6-in-3 game, it was impossible for him to be Conan's opponent.
If nothing unexpected happens, it is certain that Conan will win the championship.
A chill flashed in Lafayette's eyes, and he smiled and said, "Why don't you let me kill him?"
Even if the Fang Pirates seek asylum from the military at the cost of a portion of their bounty, Lafayette can use his hypnotic ability to unknowingly break through the military's defenses and assassinate Conan.
"Forget it, there's no need."
Maud shook her head.
Lafayette chuckled and stopped insisting.
Originally, if Maud just said a word, he would be able to handle this matter beautifully.
But since Maud doesn't want to, then forget it.
Mod looked at the suitcase containing the money and said calmly: "As long as the new ship can leave the factory before the finals... what should be ours will eventually be ours."
“Hoo ho…”
Afterwards, Lafayette took the final payment to Thomas Shipyard and learned good news from Keynes.
The transportation of Baoshu Adam went smoothly.
If nothing else, it will be delivered in three days.
Once the shipbuilding materials are in place, they can build a new ship in about two days.
Just as Keynes said.
Three days later, Adam, a treasure tree worth 650 million, arrived at Thomas Shipyard safely.
After that, Thomas Shipyard devoted all its efforts to start building new ships.
Three more days passed after that, which was the day before the Beast Fighting Finals.
Pele was unlucky and was matched with Konan in the first game.
As a result, the possibility of trading again is lost.
Without any hesitation, Mod directly submitted an application to abandon the competition to the Colosseum.
With Bailey abstaining, Conan and another fighting beast advanced directly to the finals amid boos from the audience.
After coming out of the Colosseum, Maud and his party went straight to Thomas Shipyard.
There seems to be an arrangement somewhere.
The day before the final, the new boat was released.
Chapter 72 Eve
The Thomas Shipyard is located at the end of Leviathan Island.
The large workshops required for shipbuilding are built against the mountain wall.
In that factory building, there is a sea current tunnel that leads directly to the outside of the island.
All new ships produced at Thomas Shipyard will eventually be launched in this current channel and then leave Leviathan Island directly.
And the new ship that Mod spent a whopping 800 million to order was no exception.
As soon as they received the notice from Keynes, Maude and the others rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.
Inside the huge factory building, a brand new brig was placed across its supports.
The size of the new ship is similar to the Sonny in Mod's impression, both are medium-sized ships.
The overall color of the hull is mainly blue, and the cabin, deck steps, protective railings, and observation deck on the top of the mast...
There is no shortage of necessary facilities.
However, these facilities are made of precious tree Adam, and their sturdiness is guaranteed.
The bow of the ship is a blue dragon with a cannon in its mouth that Edward designed according to Maud's request.
Above the blue dragon, there are two suspended pointed poles extending straight forward, like the horns of the green dragon.
On both sides of the ship's hull are the bodies of green dragons winding away.
Such an image is somewhat similar to the dragon boat of the Revolutionary Army.
Lafayette was not a beauty. After seeing the shiny oars at the stern of the new ship, he immediately boarded the ship and went to the power room where the steam engine was located.
Jia Ya ran to the kitchen.
Instead, Maud and Jim were wandering around the deck.
Keynes followed Maud and was responsible for explaining some of the hidden and practical functions embedded in the ship, which reflected Edward's design intentions.
"Are you satisfied?"
After a few laps, Keynes smiled and looked at Maude, who nodded frequently along the way.
"good."
Maud looked up at the house-like lookout at the top of the mast.
Below the observation deck, a small loudspeaker is equipped.
This is just one of the detailed designs that shows Edward's thoughtfulness.
Despite this, with a cost of more than 800 million, it is still difficult to feel that it is worth the money.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
The cost of Baoshu Adam's shipbuilding materials alone is as high as 650 million.
For this reason, Mod even asked Fute to use the channels of the Revolutionary Army to investigate the price of the precious tree Adam on the black market in the near future.
It is indeed such an asking price.
After a while, Jaya came out of the cabin first.
There was a slight smile on her face, and she was obviously very satisfied with the large open kitchen.
A few minutes later, Lafayette also walked out of the cabin, holding an operation and maintenance manual involving the steam engine and power room in his hand.
It was written by Keynes specially for the mechanic before the new ship was built.
Despite the outrageous asking price, Thomas Shipyard's professionalism and service are indeed on point.
Everyone gathered on the deck.
Before a new boat is launched, it is natural to give it a name.
Maud was eager to try.
Then, he was isolated.
As for the real one, painter Jim did not participate in the naming, but started painting pirate flags.
In addition to the pirate flag that needs to be hung on the top of the mast, an enlarged version also needs to be painted on the sail.
While Jim was painting the flag, Lafayette and Jaya started thinking. They first regarded "crow" as a forbidden word, and then came up with more than ten ship names.
"Choose one."
Lafayette and Jaya looked at Maud.
Maude sighed softly.
The crow is gone.
Later, Maude chose a pleasing name from more than ten ship names - the Hades.
This name was given by Lafayette.
"The Hades, the guide, always feels weird."
After reacting, Maud looked at his navigator with a slightly strange look.
Leading to the underworld...
It's a bit unlucky.
Facing Maud's strange gaze, Lafayette corrected him calmly: "My name is Devil Sheriff."
"Not anymore."
