Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 150: Abnormal taste (3/4)

"Forgive me for being hard to understand, Captain Sai Nan..."

Heaving a sigh of relief, the man frowned, knocked on the table with his hands, and asked patiently: "Our cooperation has lasted for nearly half a year, and we have obtained the permission of the elders of your clan, even the exploration permit from the Viscount's Mansion. Get it."

"The remuneration has never been less, and every time I go to sea, I meet the regulations, and I will give you a proportional remuneration if I find something."

"The reputation of Platinum Iridium Workshop is needless to say, you must know it."

"Why did you suddenly change your mind today?"

The man's voice was euphemistic, but he questioned condescendingly, as if Captain Bai Zhimin didn't give a suitable reason, something unbearable would happen.

"I..." Sai Nan opened his mouth. He originally wanted to explain and cover up, but after recalling the reminder Ian gave him, "Be sure to have a good idea before lying", he found that he should stop talking about good things, even if it was a lie. To be honest, I'm afraid it's also upside down.

So in the end, he just said in a very sincere and regretful tone: "I've been unlucky recently... Uh, I'm more afraid of death. I'm sorry, I really can't do this mission to the far sea..."

"Another three hundred talers."

Knocking on the table, the middle-aged blond-haired man emphasized his tone, using his usual method: "I know Captain, you definitely didn't want to increase the price, but we have cooperated for so long, it is troublesome to find other people-don't worry about safety, The Platinum Iridium Workshop will guarantee your safety."

"But don't make it hard for us."

This is a lure and a hidden threat. Sai Nan's breathing is a lot heavier, showing both greed and fear.

Three hundred thalers are not much, but not much. In Harrison Port, this money is enough to buy another small fishing boat.

Adding the reward for completing the mission, he, the captain, might become the leader of the small fleet!

Moreover, the icing potion from the Platinum Iridium Workshop is a necessary alchemy potion for all fleets to catch and preserve seafood in the open sea. They provide 70% of the icing potion in Harrison Port. If the other party does not sell it to him Related medicines, then he may only be able to wander in the near sea in the future.

Not to mention, the Marquis family behind the Platinum Iridium Workshop...

But even so, Sai Nan still gritted his teeth and refused: "I'm sorry, I missed the appointment... I will pay the deposit!"

—Taler is a good thing, but lifeless flowers are useless!

He still prefers to trust Ian a little bit.

"Okay, well, since you think so, I don't want to be too aggressive..."

The blond middle-aged man wanted to get angry at first, but with his status, no one even in the imperial capital would dare to refuse him like this, leaving no room for it.

But noticing that the blond boy sitting across from him was watching his communication with Sai Nan curiously, he shook his head and smiled wryly: "Really, nothing good happened on the first day in Port Harrison."

No... It would be better to say that his status does not have that great effect on Harrison Port, which is located on the edge of the world and cannot be radiated by anyone.

——Hey, they don't understand what it means to compete with country people.

Thinking of this, he even lost interest: "There is no need to pay the deposit, Captain Sai Nan, if there is a chance, we will cooperate next time."

Sai Nan apologized a few more times, but left uneasy but determined.

It can be clearly seen that when he walked out of the platinum iridium workshop, his bones seemed to be a lot lighter, and his steps were much more relaxed.

"...What's going on?"

Standing at the window on the second floor, watching the back of Sai Nan leaving, the blond middle-aged man was puzzled: "Others heard that they want to cooperate with our Platinum Iridium Workshop, who didn't rush forward?"

"This Sainan is also an honest person carefully selected by Ayers (the name of Viscount Grant) after consulting the local fleet. According to usual observations, he is indeed bold and can keep his mouth shut. He is also an honest guy, the cooperation in the past has been very pleasant and smooth, why did he shrink back when the critical period came this time?"

"Uncle Pat..."

At this moment, the blond boy who had been sitting quietly and silently said, "Is it possible that he just knew some unspeakable signs of danger, so he is not willing to take risks?"

The man called Pat turned his head and looked at his nephew.

Aware of his uncle's attention, the boy continued earnestly: "Mom said that if a person suddenly violates his usual policy in the past, there must be a source that makes him have to change—maybe An authoritative strong man may also be a reason for his conviction."

"Uncle, don't look at this Captain Sai Nan who seems to be shrinking back and looks very cowardly, but he is indeed very bold. Facing your threats, he will still stick to his own ideas... In the imperial capital, like this Bold people are rare!"

"This is enough to show that the information he obtained is far more credible than what we provided—at least for him, it is far more reliable than us."

The teenager summed it up like this.

"Hey... also." Pat is not stupid. He was just a little angry just now. He didn't expect such a link. It's a little dangerous..."

"After all, what is not dangerous about things related to the maze?"

Thinking of this, he noticed another point.

The man lowered his head and looked at the sack placed on the ground by Sai Nan: "Fluorescent algae... yes, today I distributed a share of the collected fluorescent algae to the captain. Go identify it and share the data with us."

"Now it seems that there must be a problem with the appraisal."

This is not difficult to deduce... If there is a problem with the identification, where else can it be?

The attitude of the other party has changed 180 degrees in such a short period of time from morning to afternoon. It must be the relevant authority who gave an early warning.

"It's a maze disaster."

Looking down at the fluorescent algae in front of him that increases the brightness of the living room by two levels, the blond boy speculated firmly.

Isengard Ellen turned his head sideways, looking at the cloudy and heavy rain outside the window: "Our mission this time is to come to Port Harrison and look for the rumored brand new monster 'Sparkling Crystal Shell' Is it?"

"The sudden appearance of this natural condensed element crystallization must be a labyrinth monster associated with a big labyrinth."

He stared at the rainstorm and thunder outside the window with some excitement, as if he had never seen anything like it.

After watching it for a long time, the young man slowly remembered that he was talking with other people, and continued to say happily: "Uncle, this makes sense now - if the maze has been closed recently If there will be a change, it's no wonder that the captain dare not go to sea!"

"A very powerful appraiser, while appraising this labyrinth algae, discovered the omen of the labyrinth disaster—he must be familiar with the captain, so he reminded him!"

"That's why Mr. Captain doesn't want to go to sea!" The young man said firmly.

"Interesting."

Patrick Ellen narrowed his eyes, and he murmured to himself thoughtfully: "Harrison Port is a barren place, and there are appraisers who can see the signs of disaster?"

After thinking for a while, the man raised his head and looked solemn: "It's not us, it's you."

"Ethan, don't forget, this is the task your mother won for you - the Royal Society of Alchemy, and even His Majesty himself are very concerned about it, that's why we chose our Ellen family, the most outstanding family of biologists in the empire, as the mission." Executor."

He reminded solemnly: "I am only responsible for bringing you and your teacher to Port Harrison, and I will not interfere in the rest... I can ask the local workshop to give you resource support, but No more will do."

The man who also had the surname 'Ellen' lowered his voice: "After all, this is something for your generation."

"I cannot, will not, and will not step in to help either party."

"Yeah." Hearing this sentence, the blond boy named Isengard couldn't help but look a little dark. He thought of his two older brothers, a sister and a younger sister, and the struggle within the family.

Esen couldn't help but sighed: "I...understand. Uncle."

"Just understand."

Clapped your hands, and called two attendants to clear the table, Pat calmly said: "Next, go and say hello to Mr. Goser. By the way, tell him that your overseas research plan is obviously going to be postponed."

"Don't keep the old man waiting."

"Yeah!" Standing up, the blond boy ran out of the living room energetically, obviously going directly to the old professor.

The middle-aged nobleman watched his nephew leave with a smile. After a long time, his expression slowly returned to calm.

"Is it a disaster...?"

Pat frowned slightly, and sat back in his seat to meditate: "I didn't expect that Port Harrison would have such a keen appraiser. It seems that country people should not be underestimated."

"No. Think about it carefully, the group of white people who were exiled by the whole clan at the beginning seem to be exiled here-this can be explained."

"But it's also an opportunity... Well, it seems that I have to visit this guy Ayers... Obviously I don't intend to involve too much."

After being silent for a long time, he shook his head and said rather annoyedly: "Really, it's an extra problem."

At the same time.

Ian, who had unknowingly become the center of the topic, had just walked out of the Elder's Hall.
