Signing the Contract

Quan Yue came to the Vast Sea Shipyard to commission a ship, but this was only part of his goal.

His real purpose wasn't just commissioning a ship.

His most important goal was actually to poach talent from the shipyard.

He wanted to bring all the shipbuilding technology and talent under his family's banner and establish a shipyard that belonged solely to his family.

Therefore, Quan Yue felt that starting with this somewhat strange deputy director might be more advantageous than directly contacting the director.

Just as they were waiting in the room for Jiang Jun to return with the explanation, a rough voice came from outside the door.

"Jiang Jun, Jiang Jun! Are you there?"

Before anyone could answer, the owner of the voice directly pushed open the door and walked in.

Quan Yue and Su Ling'er turned their heads to look and saw a dark-skinned, sturdy man barging into the room they were in.

Both of them looked at the man with slight dissatisfaction, and the man also noticed their gazes.

In an instant, he changed his attitude from his previous rudeness and said to them gently, "I'm really sorry, you two must be here to order a ship. But I want to remind you that you two have been deceived by that kid Jiang Jun.

Custom orders are not his responsibility."

Quan Yue immediately became very interested and asked curiously, "I heard that Mr. Jiang Jun is the deputy director of your shipyard. Is it not possible for a deputy director to receive guests and accept custom orders alone?"

The rough man continued, "Although he is indeed the deputy director, that's only because he's the director's disciple, and he was given an empty title.

But, don't be fooled by his reputation, he himself is still a novice who has never been responsible for building a ship. So, in order to attract customers, he specifically waits at the entrance to intercept guests."

"I see."

After listening to the man's explanation, Su Ling'er also had a general understanding of the situation.

Another roar came from outside the door, "Su Li, how many times have I told you not to enter my room at will?"

Jiang Jun, holding some items in his hand, quickly returned to his room, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came back, he would see his 'good deed' being ruined.

At this moment, Jiang Jun couldn't hold back the anger in his heart any longer and loudly rebuked the man named Su Li.

Su Li's expression suddenly became gloomy, and the look in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Jun became ominous.

Jiang Jun, noticing Su Li's gaze, immediately changed from anger to timidity.

He had been blinded by anger and almost forgot that Su Li was a powerful Soul Master.

If it weren't for his identity as the deputy director, his actions just now would have been considered an offense to a respected Soul Master.

Su Li, seeing the guests beside him, also consciously paid attention to his image.

He smiled and patted Jiang Jun on the shoulder, saying with a smile, "Little Junior Brother, I wonder if you have explained your specific situation to the two guests when accepting the custom order."

Jiang Jun looked at Su Li and said with gritted teeth, "No."

"That won't do. Our Vast Sea Shipyard values honest business practices. Hiding information from customers is the worst thing to do.

Your level is far from being able to receive guests."

Jiang Jun wanted to retort immediately, but when he saw the cold glint flashing in Su Li's eyes, he could only swallow the anger and unwillingness in his heart.

He turned around and bowed deeply to Quan Yue and Su Ling'er, apologizing, "I'm sorry, you two. I deceived you. Your commission can be completed through Senior Brother Su."

Under pressure, he could only helplessly give up the customers he had finally 'snatched'.

Su Li turned to face Quan Yue, his face returning to that smiling expression, completely disregarding Jiang Jun's face behind him, and said, "Haha, I'm really sorry to have made you two laugh. Next, I will be the one to serve you."

As he spoke, he pointed outside the room and said, "Please come with me, my room is not far away."

Quan Yue had watched a good show on the spot and had a general understanding of the specific situation.

Looking at Su Li's invitation, Quan Yue did not refuse.

He smiled and nodded, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Su to lead the way."

Su Li immediately beamed with joy upon hearing this and walked directly in front, leading the way for the two.

Quan Yue also directly took Su Ling'er's arm, followed closely behind, and walked out of Jiang Jun's room.

Jiang Jun stood beside the door, brushing past the two of them. Although his expression was normal, the Contract in his hand was deformed from his grip.

After walking out of the room, Quan Yue turned back to give Jiang Jun a meaningful look, unnoticed by everyone else.

In Su Li's office, Su Li was enthusiastically explaining the relevant details to Quan Yue and Su Ling'er.

Quan Yue didn't waste any time and reiterated the requirements he had previously mentioned to Jiang Jun to Su Li.

After a moment of consideration, Su Li presented Quan Yue with a general design proposal.

Su Li's proposal was largely the same as Jiang Jun's.

Quan Yue didn't hesitate and directly signed the contract with Su Li.

Of course, signing the contract was just the initial step. Afterward, there were still many things to discuss with Su Li.

Including the specific blueprints and plans, as well as the arrangement of specific construction dates, and so on.

But, this was undoubtedly a good start.

According to a rough estimate, it would take about two to three years to build a ship that met their requirements.

However, since there were many pre-fabricated medium-sized hulls in the shipyard, the time required would be greatly reduced.

They only needed to make some minor modifications and cover the hull with a thick layer of iron skin to launch it.

The time required would be directly reduced by half.

After agreeing on the specific details, Quan Yue and Su Ling'er said goodbye to Su Li and returned to their villa in a carriage.

On the way, Su Ling'er couldn't hold back her doubts any longer and asked Quan Yue, "Why didn't you choose Jiang Jun just now, but instead chose Su Li? I could tell from your expression that you were more interested in Jiang Jun."

Based on Su Ling'er's understanding of Quan Yue, she could see Quan Yue's thoughts just from his subtle expressions.

However, just when she thought that Quan Yue would choose Jiang Jun, Quan Yue unexpectedly chose Su Li.

This made Su Ling'er a little puzzled.

Quan Yue replied, "Hehe, if I had chosen Jiang Jun at that time, it would have harmed him instead.

You saw the situation at the time. If Jiang Jun was responsible for building the ship, he would definitely be influenced by Su Li.

Conversely, Jiang Jun cannot influence Su Li.

We are in urgent need of a ship now, so from an efficiency point of view, choosing Su Li is definitely the most appropriate.

Moreover, I am interested in Jiang Jun for other reasons, which are not directly related to this commission."

Su Ling'er understood somewhat in her heart, so she didn't continue to ask.

Back at the villa, the sun had already begun to set.

Standing at a high point, watching the sun descend from the endless sea.

The scene of the setting sun melting gold and the sparkling waves gave people an unspeakable shock.

After returning to the villa, Quan Yue immediately summoned his subordinates.

And instructed, "I want to know all the specific information about the Vast Sea Shipyard. Especially about Jiang Jun and Su Li, be sure to investigate everything in detail."
