Da Fei approached the Great Elder and Chief of Staff to request a reservation for a large ship.
The Great Elder shook his head on the spot: "Warrior! This won't do. First, this matter is not under my control; second, it's against principles. We must adhere to principles."
Da Fei urgently asked: "What are the principles?"
The Great Elder laughed: "Of course it's to follow the rules. You can buy the corresponding ship when your prestige is enough. Who gets a ship without paying first?"
Damn! And here I was, getting rewards before completing the task! Turns out their principle is that there are no principles!
In the end, it's just like a company giving more benefits to outstanding employees. On the surface, they reward with cars and better offices to improve employee welfare, but ultimately, it's to serve the company better, not to unduly benefit individuals.
It seems there's no way through with the ship, but no worries, I still have Mayor Elorin and Duke Markar's connections.
