473 Reasonable move Qi Tian followed his words and continued, "So, it was I who misunderstood."
Chen Ping shrugged, and he did not continue what Qi Tian said.
After all, the more you talk, the more mistakes you make, and you might even reveal your
true colors. Qi Tian changed the subject and said with a faint smile, "I heard that there is another continent on the other side of the sea. The situation there is different from that of Douluo Continent. However, there is a complete soul guide manufacturing system there."
"Mr. Chen, it seems that you have been to that continent and inherited the soul guide from there, right?"
Qi Tian did not know why the other party gave up sailing and turned to tinkering with soul guides.
But what he said was undoubtedly a blow to Chen Ping.
Chen Ping was shocked, but he still kept a calm look on his face.
He did not know why Qi Tian knew about the Sun and Moon Continent, but the other party's words clearly showed that he did not intend to let the matter go.
"Master Qi, I don't know where these rumors of yours come from. If Jincai offended you, my Chen family is willing to compensate."
Qi Tian smiled faintly and said, "According to the rules of the Empire's trading, your son sold me the horn of the unicorn whale, but gave me a fake one. According to the laws of the Empire, such behavior constitutes fraud. According to the rules, you not only need to give me the horn of the unicorn whale, but also need to compensate me with gold soul coins at three times the value of the item itself."
Qi Tian didn't know the value of the horn of the 70,000-year-old unicorn whale, but from Chen Jincai's mouth, he knew the value of this item. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a family heirloom.
If it were placed in Tiandou City, this horn would be worth at most 10,000 gold soul coins, and it would have to be auctioned at the auction house. But in Hanhai City, especially in the hands of the Navigation Family, this item is worth at least 100,000 gold soul coins.
Chen Ping needs to pay 300,000 gold soul coins in one go.
Although their family is still wealthy, they can't afford these 300,000 gold soul coins. Unless the Shrimp is sold.
"This prodigal son!" Chen Ping looked like he was disappointed with his son.
He must not sell the horn of the unicorn moon whale. If they have to go to that continent in the future, without this horn, they will be surrounded by jellyfish-like soul beasts and it will be impossible for them to leave the deep sea alive.
Qi Tian smiled and said, "Since you can't let go of this horn, I think you haven't completely given up on the ocean. How about this, I can write off this account, and the 10,000 gold soul coins will be the rent for the Shrimp to dock at the pier." "
And I think that with your current technology, you need to find a soul guide teacher to give you basic education. So, our goals are the same, and we all have to go to that continent."
At this point, Chen Ping had nothing to hide.
He briefly told Qi Tian about the process and experience of going to the Sun and Moon Continent.
He no longer went to sea in recent years because he had inherited the production of soul guides and wanted to make soul guides on his own.
During the last voyage, he accidentally arrived at the Sun and Moon Continent because of a storm and stayed on that continent for a while.
At that time, he and several surviving crew members lived in the home of a reclusive old man.
Before the old man passed away, he handed over the soul guide research manual that he had recorded throughout his life to Chen Ping. It was a pity that he had not personally taught Chen Ping, and the latter could only cross the river by feeling the stones when studying soul guides.
After so long, he had only completed half of the most common soul guide.
"Master Qi, after the last time we came back, there were only a few crew members left on the Shrimp. If we want to cross the ocean again, we must replenish the number of crew members."
Recruiting crew members is a long process. After all, once there is a problem with the crew at sea, not everyone on the ship may be able to return to land safely.
"I will rest in Hanhai City for a while, and you should gather the crew as soon as possible. As for the cost of going to sea, we will calculate it separately." Qi Tian explained. Cultivation requires a combination of work and rest. He had been in seclusion for a long time before, and he started the God Test without stopping after coming out. As soon as he arrived in Hanhai City today, he found Chen Ping, and there was almost no time to rest in between.
He could also take a good rest before leaving. After all,
Chen Ping had been to the Sun and Moon Continent, and had sailing experience, which could save a lot of time on the road.
"By the way, Mr. Chen, how many months will it take for the Shrimp to reach the other continent?"
Chen Ping thought for a while and said, "Seven months."
There is still a lot of redundancy before the end of the God Test.
...
In the next few days, Qi Tian and the other two sent Yang Jie back to her family and lived in her mansion for a few days.
After that, the three of them lived in a hotel in the city.
"Qitian, I went to see the Hanhai Great Soul Fighting Arena yesterday. The soul fighting method there is completely different from the inland great soul fighting arena." Ye Lingling vividly told Qi Tian what she saw and heard.
Qi Tian looked at him tenderly and said softly, "The advantages of sea soul masters can only be fully exerted in the water. If it is a land soul master, fighting them in the water will not get any advantage. Even I can only be forced to pull the battlefield into the air."
Soul masters with soul power lower than that of soul masters are at risk of suffocation in the water.
Once they feel suffocated, the soul master will be in a panic. In the battle, let alone how much they can play, it is difficult to protect themselves.
...
At the dock, when Chen Ping posted a notice to recruit crew members, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
Previously, Chen Ping stayed at home and often talked to himself, and countless people thought he was crazy. Now, he stood on the dock intact, and it was hard not to attract attention.
However, Chen Ping suffered. From time to time, someone came to ask him if his condition had improved.
In order to dispel the rumors, he had to explain to these sailors who came here again and again.
For this voyage, Qi Tian gave a total of 100,000 gold soul coins for travel expenses. Therefore, Chen Ping had sufficient funds and could recruit sailors with rich admiration from other ships.
Of course, this money is not so easy to get. It will take at least two years to get back, including the time spent on the journey. Moreover, since it is heading to the deep sea, the ship is prone to encounter storms and lose its way.
Last time, his Shrimp was trapped at sea for two months. Until the water source ran out, they could not find an island to replenish water. They could only watch as the crew members died of thirst one by one.
The remaining Chen Ping and several crew members thought they would die, but the sudden heavy rain saved their lives.
After learning about the dangers of this trip, many crew members who came here to admire the reputation retreated.
Everyone chooses to run a ship, isn't it just to make money to support their families? If they lose their lives, what's the point of making more money?
For a time, except for sailors whose family members were sick or who urgently needed money for other problems, the rest of the people backed out.
Chen Ping was also helpless about this, and the progress of recruiting crew members could only be delayed again and again. (
