Chapter 170: A game without a guaranteed minimum wage is not worth it for non-Africans
It didn't take long for everyone to get their own life card, or life paper.
Each sheet is the size of A4 paper, but if you prefer, you can also make it as big as a newspaper or the size of a palm.
Zhang Da also tried it. He cut off a small piece and placed it on the table. The small piece of paper would slowly move towards him as if it was attracted to him.
A bold guess is that this may be due to the use of those special materials to specifically change the gravity between the life paper and the individual.
After the others tried it and confirmed that it was effective, they cut the life paper into small pieces, wrote their names on them, and exchanged them with each other.
The neatly arranged little pieces of paper made Zhang Da happy. He felt uncomfortable when he saw them torn into messy shapes while watching anime.
"Shall I make a small purse for everyone after we get back?" Rui Mengmeng suggested, "It will be more convenient to carry the life paper this way."
Zhang Da was also surprised and asked, "You can also sew?"
"Yes, because when clothes are torn I always have to sew them myself. I will get the hang of it if I do it more often." Rui Mengmeng felt that she had no problem making a few ordinary small purses.
"Thank you for your help." Zhang Da also blinked, "Do you want overtime pay?"
Rui Mengmeng is no longer the cautious girl she was when she first arrived. She can handle such a joke: "No need for overtime pay, but you need to reimburse the material cost. A golden folding stool will be enough."
"Ha, do you think I look like a golden folding stool? Take it if you want."
The originally scheduled rest day was interrupted by a sudden surprise, and then I spent half a day strolling around the streets, which can probably be considered a leisure day.
We found a nice-looking restaurant to eat in the evening. When we left, the boss had a very happy face. I heard that two chefs in the back were too tired today. I wonder if they will get a bonus.
There was no action plan tonight, and several people were doing their own exercises in the small courtyard.
"...998, 999, 1000!" After finishing the last push-up, Zhang Da remained in the same position. "Tom, you can get off now, Tom? Don't fall asleep on my back!"
Zhang Da couldn't wake him up, so he turned over and threw Tom off his back and the bowling ball in Tom's arms.
The bowling ball rolled and arched Tom's waist.
Tom finally came to his senses, hurriedly got up, and blinked innocently.
The evening training mission had not been completed yet, and Zhang Da only did it when he had enough energy, and then felt a little melancholy.
"Tatsuya, what's wrong?" asked Altria.
Zhang Da also said: "Meng Meng's black armor is almost complete, but no new partners have been summoned. I am a little worried."
"There's no point in getting anxious about this, right?" Altria said, "Aren't we enough to ensure the safety of the voyage?"
"Not really, I just feel that we are still a little short of manpower, and... " Zhang Da also counted on his fingers, "Tom and I came here on May 5th, you came here on June 4th, Mengmeng on July 1st, and Shark Chili on July 30th. It's almost one person summoned once a month. But today is October 11th, and there is still no movement. I feel uneasy."
Rui Mengmeng asked, "Boss, did your magic circle say that one person would come every month?"
"No, if it had an instruction manual I wouldn't have to be so suspicious."
"Then there's no need to doubt it. Maybe it's just because you're unlucky." Rui Mengmeng comforted Zhang Daye with the most heartbreaking words, "I heard from a colleague who likes to play games that people like you are called Africans, right? Or non-Africans or something like that."
"Thank you." Zhang Da also felt that his soul had been baptized. I am so stubborn that it is normal that I can't summon anyone, right? This is not a game with a guaranteed ten-draw bonus.
There was no way to deal with the magic circle, so Zhang Da could only continue to sweat and constantly motivate himself with the common psychological comfort of Africans - what if it works in one go?
Without the hustle and bustle of the past, the pub had a rare peaceful night.
The next day, Zhang Da, who was preparing to go to Uncle Goodman's house to look at the design drawings, also received a call .
At Jinpei's request, Zhang Da led everyone to the coast he mentioned, and they saw a big surprise.
It was a sailing ship, about forty meters long, with a white sail on the mast without any markings or flags.
Jinbe was currently standing on a whale shark in front of the boat, which was pulling the boat with a rope.
As the ship approached the shore, the statue on the bow gradually became clear. It was the image of Tom: standing on one foot, with the other foot lifted behind him, one hand resting on the pergola as if looking into the distance, and under his feet was a cannon.
Except for its size, the entire statue is almost indistinguishable from the real thing. I wonder which master carpenter created it.
"How are you all?" Jinbei jumped lightly onto the shore and greeted everyone with a smile.
Everyone greeted Jinbe one by one, then looked at the ship curiously.
Jinbei didn't keep them in suspense and got straight to the point, "I'm here on behalf of King Neptune and Princess Otohime to give you this ship!"
"Huh?" Everyone looked confused as to why the ship was suddenly sent away out of the blue.
Jinbei explained, "In fact, when we were seeing you off at Fishman Island, King Neptune once said that a little bit of gold was not enough to express his gratitude, and he had always wanted to do something for you.
Especially recently, Princess Shirahoshi has become more cheerful and strong under the influence of Mr. Tatsuya, and the three princes have also changed a lot. So the king's desire to repay them has become stronger.
Until the last time I brought Kemi to visit, King Neptune learned that you were worried about the ship to go out to sea, so he specially asked Mr. Dan to help build this ship. "
"This is too expensive, and too sudden... Why didn't Kami tell us?" Zhang Da also murmured. This is equivalent to giving a bunch of expensive handicrafts last time and a yacht this time. It makes people feel embarrassed.
"Because she was worried that you would refuse, the princess specifically told Cami not to reveal it for the time being." What Jinbei didn't say was that the wood for this ship was all provided by him. They originally wanted to rebuild a ship belonging to the Sun Pirates, and it was awkward to always use the one converted from a warship.
However, after knowing Neptune's idea, Jinbei immediately said that he would provide the wood. Even if it was not as good as the legendary Adam wood, it was definitely a rare and good material.
I was shocked and embarrassed, but they had built the boat and sent it to me, so I couldn't just take it back and dismantle it. I couldn't refuse their kindness, so I had to go up and take a look.
And Tom, when did you climb up there?
Don’t imitate the statue’s posture on top of the statue’s head. That’s too funny. I, your master, am about to burst out laughing.
