"Man-made satellite? Ah... President Xu, what are you talking about? It's so big in space, how can I touch the man-made satellite? Let me tell you, the magic space in the sky is frighteningly stable. It's so easy for me to mobilize the magic elements. …”
"Cassandra." Xu Yi interrupted Cassandra with a stern face. "Akali told me that the Dragon Clan disdains lies."
Kassandra suddenly looked suffocated, blinked her eyes, stayed blank for a long time, and then lowered her head.
"Um... President Xu, I just happened to see the man-made satellite flying past me. I thought it was fun, so I chased it and competed with it to see who was flying faster. I didn't do anything extra..."
Seeing Cassandra finally admit it, Xu Yi smiled slightly and waved his hand.
"I know. Otherwise, would I just ask you instead of causing trouble for you?"
Cassandra immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and when she raised her head again, she became energetic again.
"Hey, President Xu, since you already know, why are you still trying to scare me?"
"The Chamber of Commerce's magic illusion camera on the artificial satellite only captured a black figure, but I'm not sure it's you. I just asked casually, but unexpectedly you admitted it, which saved me the trouble of guessing."
Kassandra was stunned for a moment, and then she yelled in shame and anger.
"President Xu, you humans are all liars! I..."
"You did fly next to the artificial satellite, didn't you? In other words, you have actually harassed our chamber of commerce's artificial satellite for a long time, right?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
Cassandra was stunned and snorted angrily: "So what? I didn't destroy it! I just thought it wasn't fun to be the only one in the sky, so I just let it accompany me!"
Xu Yi couldn't help laughing and shook his head.
In terms of age, Cassandra is actually almost over 200 years old this year.
But in terms of mental age, she is still younger than Nisi, a girl from the energetic tribe who is only about a hundred years old this year.
This is not only because the dragons' lifespan is longer than that of the elves, but also because the social environment of the dragons is simpler, and young dragons like Cassandra are basically not interested in worldly affairs.
If this were not the case, Cassandra would not have easily believed the exploration fleet sent by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce at first, and promised them to run to Sainz Continent to report the news, and then easily believe Xu Yi and others. And later even became good friends with Akali.
Of course, the dragons themselves are too powerful, and there really aren't many things that can threaten them, so they don't need to be so unnecessarily vigilant.
"Didn't you just say that flying in space is fun?" Xu Yixiao asked.
"It's not that fun after flying for a long time." Cassandra shook her head. "So I decided. This time I must go back and tell the tribesmen that we can all fly into the sky together."
"Hmm... Cassandra, do you think all your people are capable of flying freely in space?" Xu Yi suddenly asked.
"Of course you can. There are many people in the clan who are stronger than me, and I can do it. Of course they can do it too."
"That's not necessarily the case." Xu Yi shook his head with a serious expression. "Cassandra, before you broke through the atmosphere, we did a lot of preliminary work to ensure various data in space and calculated that the space environment would not pose a fatal threat to you. Only then did we agree to let you fly. Up. Although you can fly freely in space, it is only for your case. It does not mean that everyone in your tribe can do it. If something goes wrong, do you want to see your tribe members. Did he explode and die the moment he broke through the atmosphere?”
A trace of fear flashed across Cassandra's face: "It's not that scary, right? I'm fine after flying for so long, right?"
"I told you. This is just a case against you."
"Then what should I do? I also want to make an appointment with the guys in the clan to see who can fly faster in space."
"Do you really want to?" Xu Yi asked, staring at Cassandra.
"Of course."
"Okay. Now you can fly into space. Although it is just an example, it can represent the general situation of the Dragon Clan. The reason I just said it is an example is because the data we have collected about space are not perfect. It’s impossible to be 100% sure, so you can’t let your tribe take risks. But if the data collection is complete enough, we will know everything about the situation in space... "
"I understand." Cassandra interrupted Xu Yi. "You just want me to help you collect data, right?"
"Smart." Xu Yi smiled.
"Isn't there an artificial satellite?"
"But artificial satellites are not as flexible as you in the sky, and artificial satellites are artificial satellites after all, not dragons. The data they collect is difficult to use as actual reference."
"That's it... then I understand." Cassandra nodded. He touched his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to Xu Yi with a smile.
Xu Yi looked at the delicate white palm that Cassandra stretched out in front of him in astonishment.
"What?"
"If you let me work for you, you have to pay me a salary, right?" Cassandra chuckled. Trying to look cunning.
Xu Yi looked at her with wide eyes.
"Is this what Akali taught you?"
"Does this still require the Akali Cult? Aren't all of you humans like this?" Kassandra answered confidently. "Since every one of you humans needs payment for doing things, then of course I need to do things for you. Is this fair?"
"It's fair." Xu Yi rolled his eyes at her angrily, then his heart moved, he thought about it, and continued: "In that case. Cassandra, go back and help me ask if there is any other clansman who is willing." If you work for us, I will give you a satisfactory reward."
"Didn't you just say that people other than me should not take risks in space?"
"The jobs they need are not just about flying into space to help us collect data, there are many other jobs suitable for them."
"That's it..."
"By the way, it would be better if you are willing to learn to use human trading methods to get what you want. I can directly give you gold coins as reward, which will be more convenient for both of us."
"If you need gold, our clan has a lot of it, so you don't need to give it to us." Cassandra said with a proud look on her face. "Don't worry, I just hope you can provide me with some more fun things. For example, more magic movies and so on. My people must demand these things just like me. You don't have to worry about us going too far. Require."
"No... What I hope you learn is just to adapt to the way we humans trade. Although gold coins are still a common currency, currency is not the same thing as gold. Maybe... we will use pieces of paper to trade in the future."
"Paper?" Cassandra looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes, disbelief on her face.
Xu Yiran was too lazy to explain the basics of currency to her, so he dropped the topic with a smile, and quickly reached a verbal agreement with Cassandra.
Kassandra is willing to work for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and will also go back to persuade her Red Dragon tribe members to also work for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will give them appropriate remuneration in the form of gold coins.
As for the price... Cassandra is tentatively set at half of Akali's current salary, which is sixty gold coins per month.
Other tribesmen will discuss it based on the specific work.
Xu Yi couldn't help but smile proudly as he watched Cassandra transform into a flying dragon form again with excitement on her face and soar into the sky.
For only sixty gold coins per month, he was able to hire a dragon to work for him. This was simply the best deal he had ever made.
Moreover, no one can replace Cassandra's work. Not to mention only sixty gold coins a month, even six hundred gold coins a month is not much.
You know, when Cassandra works for a long time in the future, the scope of her work can be further expanded.
For example, by virtue of its ability to fly freely in space and even easily catch up with the speed of artificial satellites, it can fully undertake the daily maintenance, repair and even recycling of artificial satellites.
Compared with the follow-up work on artificial satellites on the earth, which has basically not developed, Xu Yi now has a big killer like Cassandra, which can be envied by everyone in all national space agencies on the earth.
"Hey, Xu Yi, don't you feel ashamed to deceive an innocent little dragon girl?" Seeing Cassandra disappearing, Steele ended his swimming and returned to Xu Yi.
"How can this be called cheating?" Xu Yi was not surprised that Steele heard the conversation between himself and Cassandra. With Steele's current strength at the level of a great magician, it would be easy for her to hear any sound hundreds of meters away as long as she was willing and the other party had nothing to guard against. "I made it clear to her and didn't hide anything."
"Huh, you didn't tell her how special her job is."
"The Dragon Clan is inherently special." Xu Yi said seriously. "I wish I could take this opportunity to officially make the Dragon Clan our partner. But for the sake of the future, I can't set the price too high from the beginning, can I?"
"Yes, I understand." Steele nodded and sat down next to Xu Yi. After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Speaking of which, Xu Yi, it seems that you really plan to focus all your energy on the Magic Cloud Continent. "
"That's right. Compared to Sainz Continent, the situation on Moyun Continent is much simpler. As long as the problem of the goblins is solved, Moyun Continent can be built according to my wishes."
"Then if something happens on Sainz Continent..."
"What will happen?" Xu Yi looked at Steele with a smile, reached out his hand and touched her still smooth face. "Honestly, Steele, have you ever considered retiring?" (~^~)
