Chapter 134 Should we provide aid? We'll build a port for free.
Leo and the others were completely stunned.
What are they doing all this time, managing relationships and working to save money, for?
Isn't it just to meet the dean of the academy?
Unexpectedly, the academy president was hiding in this inconspicuous shop.
If only I had known...
Well, I should have gotten a job first.
After all, the academy's art style is completely different from what is recorded in the materials, and it doesn't look very serious.
I feel like this dean is obsessed with money. If you don't work and save some money, you might not even get to see him.
He imagined it all, attributing his meeting with Fang Qi to a fortuitous coincidence after buying the logic board.
"No cost, it's free!" Fang Qi waved his tentacle: "However—"
It's here, but...!
Leo stared at Fang Qi, waiting for him to continue.
The other brothers weren't so worried. They took the flyers and went to the side to quietly discuss the cost-effectiveness.
Although it was said to be quiet, it was actually quite loud, attracting the attention of both Fang Qi and Leo.
"I think this 180 gold coins per month plan is pretty good. It comes with 30 units of data, enough to view 30 pictures."
"Only 30 photos? One a day isn't enough!"
"If that doesn't work, how about the 580 gold coin option, which gives 120 units of data? We can take turns using it, that should be enough."
"————" Leo glanced at his brothers, a little helpless.
Could you please lower your voice and act more professionally? He's still negotiating here, what's with all the accounting over there?
"I suggest you get a family package, activate all four logic boards together, and you can share the data," Fang Qi said, then turned to Leo. "However, I want to open a shipping route to Holy Spirit Island. I can build the port for you for free, and I can also provide personnel and equipment."
Leo fell silent.
Now that we've covered the advantages, what about the disadvantages?
However, aren't the conditions that follow "however" all very harsh?
He had just mentally reviewed the techniques for pulling and maneuvering that his predecessors had summarized, and was planning to use the "friendship method" to do so.
"Akasha and the Xuanjia Clan are good friends!" Fang Qi stretched out a tentacle and patted Leo's shoulder.
The other person actually used the "friendship trick" first!
Leo was at a loss for words and could only laugh awkwardly, "Hahaha, yes, the headmaster is right."
"This is my assistant, a veteran," Fang Qi said, grabbing Zhenyu, who was watching the commotion from behind, and introducing her. "She'll be in charge of contacting you during this time. Just ask her for anything related to adventurers."
Leo felt valued because they had actually sent out one of their most capable men.
Since that's the case, he couldn't let the other party down: "Dean, rest assured, if I win the trial championship, I will certainly not let you down!"
I can't speak for other things, but what the dean says is not difficult to do.
After winning the championship, you can make a reasonable request to the council of elders while becoming a candidate for the next elder.
Even if it were their island's annual production of specialty products, it wouldn't be a big problem.
Not to mention that the academy head only came to build a port.
We met some really kind people who helped with the reconstruction this time!
"My elders at home will be amazed by what I've accomplished this time!" Leo thought with delight.
Because of the sinking, Akasha, which was originally a popular area for external aid in the trials, has now fallen to the point of being ignored, with no family having any strength willing to come.
It's not that I think Akasha will be destroyed. There are plenty of Tier 6s and Tier 7s here, so they still have the ability to deal with crises.
However, considering that so many people could not avoid sinking the island, they must have encountered an unimaginable accident.
Even if they weren't severely weakened, they couldn't spare any reinforcements.
So Leo and his group of four got the scraps.
Their family was weak and their intelligence was outdated. They were just trying their luck, but they unexpectedly struck gold!
Leo never expected the trip to go so smoothly.
The predecessors of the past made friends, negotiated, and even fought openly and secretly with other families.
Compared to them, Leo felt incredibly lucky.
He secretly decided that simply agreeing to build the port was not enough; if he could win the championship, he would also help the academy president secure more benefits to repay his kindness!
Fang Qi was equally happy to see that Leo had agreed.
He asked the professors, and they said that the Xuanjia tribe was conservative and stuck in their ways.
Now it seems they weren't so conservative after all; they even allowed the port to be built!
Fang Qi's free aid was certainly not a free gift; to be precise, it was a win-win situation, except that he earned a little more.
For the Xuanjia Clan, this can help them easily convert resources into cash, quickly keep up with the pace of development in the outside world, and enhance their racial strength.
For Fang Qi, this not only allows him to expend Hagi's excess energy, but also enables him to promote his standard blocks through trading.
Fang Qizhen didn't cheat anyone.
He felt that now that he was the dean of the academy, he had no worries about food or fun, and could have whatever he wanted. He also had hundreds of Palu and thousands of students under his command. He was practically a winner in life.
We can no longer be like before, haggling over every little bit of profit; we need to broaden our perspective.
The Land of Divine Revelation is so vast, and there are so many races, there's no end to the business to be done.
Now, we need to build up our reputation and establish the "Vision" and Akasha brands. In the future, big orders will naturally come knocking.
Besides, Fang Qi had already inquired about it; the Xuanjia Clan had many other treasures that were priceless in the outside world, which sounded very promising.
For example, the tortoise shells that the Xuanjia tribe discarded were worthless there and were generally used to build houses or even as miscellaneous items.
But in the outside world, this thing is called a tortoise shell molt. It's not only sturdy, but it also has the ability to self-repair!
For example, the Xuanjia tribe cultivated a spice in their habitat using special methods. They would light a handful of it at night to help them sleep.
This stuff is actually called tortoise shell incense. After being processed, it can be made into a top-grade medicine that prolongs life!
Fang Qi had never seen the actual product, but based on the description of its effects, it seemed to be able to slow down metabolism.
If we could extract the relevant terms, that would be incredible.
Moreover, Fang Qi found the concept of the Xuanjia Clan's Spirit God quite familiar, as it resembled the Four Sacred Beasts from his hometown legends.
He planned to take a break and secretly follow behind to observe the trial.
The three people in the Vision Shop, each with their own thoughts, looked at each other and smiled.
"Pleasant to cooperate?" Fang Qi nudged Zhenyu from behind, and Zhenyu helplessly stretched out her hand.
Leo tapped rhythmically on the edge of the tortoise shell, performing his proper etiquette, paused for a moment, and then extended his hand: "Pleasure doing business with you."
Suddenly, a system task popped up in front of Zhenyu:
[Form alliances with the Xuanjia Clan to unlock faction reputation.]
[Successfully accepted the faction quest: The Trial of the Xuanjia Clan.]
Seeing the change in Zhenyu's expression, Fang Qi understood.
It must be the game system at work. That's good, because then he won't have to impersonate the system to give tasks to the shop assistants.
"These four logic boards are for you, consider them my initial investment." Fang Qi tossed over two corn-shaped longswords and handed over two nut-shaped wide shields.
