    Hearing this, Sophie twisted her flexible body, spun around on the sea, and swam towards Anrui with a smile.  The Bingxi Dragon then emerged from the sea, shook its head, and shook the water droplets from An Rui's face.  An Rui took off the bag from Bingxilong¡¯s back, untied the rope, and looked inside.  There are more than a dozen pieces of blue ore in the bag, large and small, and the harvest is quite fruitful.  "Is this the deep sea iron?" Sophie asked as she came closer and looked down at the blue ore in the bag.  "Well, this is deep-sea fine iron. We rely on it to cast cannons." An Rui reached out and took out a piece of ore from his bag and handed it to Shafei for a look.  "So beautiful." Sophie sighed as she held up the deep sea fine iron and looked at the bright light reflected on it.  "Mix it with other metals and cast it into a cannon. Many blue lines will appear on the cannon. Those lines are really beautiful." An Rui said with a smile.  After showing Sophie the Deep Sea Iron, Anrui rode on the back of the Ice Tide Dragon and swam towards Berego, who was still flopping on the beach.  When he swam to the beach, he threw the bag on the shore, then jumped back into the water. He played a guest role as a swimming coach and taught Berego some swimming essentials. For example, he didn't need to make too big a breath, and his body should be relaxed.  .  After all, Berego is an elf archer with well-developed motor nerves. He can learn to swim very quickly. After a little practice, he can already swim decently.  After resting on the shore for a while, An Rui returned to the deep sea again and continued to dig for deep sea iron.  Time passed quietly in the process of knocking, and a few days passed in the blink of an eye.  With Anrui¡¯s hard work, more and more deep-sea fine iron was dug out, transported to the shore, and piled up into a hill, exceeding the goal.  During the excavation, everything went smoothly without any major trouble. There was only a small incident.  One afternoon, Anrui saw Shafi sunbathing, applying sunscreen oil to her wheat-colored skin.  On a whim, An Rui stepped forward to help Shafei apply sunscreen. His intention was obvious.  Sophie's face suddenly became embarrassed, and she politely declined the matter, which made Anrui feel disappointed.  Apart from that, nothing special happened.  There is enough deep-sea refined iron, which can not only be used to cast cannons, but the rest can also be used to exchange for some gold coins. The value of this kind of ore is very high.  Anrui drove the carriage and returned home with a full load, leaving his own traces along the way, and returned to Tiepao Port covered with dust.  After a brief rest, Anrui took the deep sea iron directly to the Steel Hammer Shipyard and delivered it to the master shipbuilder Javi.  "You brat, you're really procrastinating. It took you until now to bring the deep-sea fine iron. Your ship was completed the day before yesterday, but the cannon hasn't been built yet." Jia Wei looked at a bag full of deep-sea iron.  Jingtie, muttered.  "Really? It's been built? Take me to see it quickly!" An Rui said excitedly.  He had worried a lot about this new ship, and now that he had finally built the ship, he couldn't be happier.  "Come with me. Let you see my master's masterpiece." Jia Wei waved and walked in front.  An Rui and two companions followed closely, and the group set off for the dock. In one of the docks, they saw the new ship.  Everyone stopped in unison, held their breath, and looked at the new ship docked in the dock.  Although they had seen it many times before, they seemed to have a completely different feeling this time.  "She" used to be just a semi-finished product, but now it's completed and only needs to install a few cannons.  Her length reaches more than thirty yards, close to forty yards, and she has a slender figure. At first glance, she looks like a flexible and versatile boat.  The wood of the hull all shows an ocher red color, which is one of the colors commonly used in sailing ships.  At the bow of the ship, there is a bow image made of the keel of a red dragon. The dragon's head is in front, with its mouth open, looking menacing. Part of the keel extends out and is fixed to the hull, looking like the skeleton of the hull.  Above the bow of the ship, there is a thick thundering demon tree horn extending forward.  This thing is not a decoration, it can be of great use in naval battles. It can be used to ram enemy ships and ram them through!  Some ships with strong ramming angles and fast speeds are specially designed to fight in this way.  A mainmast extends from the front of the ship and pierces the sky. It looks so tall and powerful.  There is a circle of rolled up canvas on the crossbar. The snow-white canvas contains a lot of black spider silk, which An Rui got in exchange for a bloody battle.  The gun doors on the ship are all tightly closed. Even if they are opened, it will be of no use. The cannons have not been built yet and they are all empty inside.  In addition to its cannon, this shipThere is still one crucial thing missing - a name!  There is a place dedicated to carving names on the bow side of the ship, but it is empty at this time, waiting for the owner to name her.  ¡°It looks great,¡± Sophie exclaimed.  "Pay attention to the wording, it's 'she' rather than 'it'. Calling a sailboat like this can reflect the sailors' unique feelings for sailboats." Javi reminded from the side.  As a master shipbuilder, he attaches great importance to this aspect.  "Okay, I remember, it's 'her'." Sophie smiled.  "Anrui, as long as the cannon is installed, she can go into the water." Jia Wei turned to look at Anrui, "As her owner, it's time for you to think of a good name for her." "Okay, I  I'll think of a good name for her when I get back, and I'll let you know and have your name engraved on her body." An Rui nodded, but his eyes remained on the new ship full of nostalgia.  His mood was as surging as the waves. Soon, he would be able to sail into the embrace of the sea on his own boat.  It was already night when An Rui and his party left the Steel Hammer Shipyard.  The night falls, dotted with countless stars, which twinkle like the eyes of the gods, gazing at the world.  "Have you decided on a name for the new ship?" Sophie asked casually as she walked on the dimly lit street.  "I have a few ideas, but I haven't decided what to call it yet." An Rui shrugged.  "Tell me about it, I'll help you make suggestions." "This ship is a new one for me in my life, and I have the heart to call her 'No.'" "No.? It's not bad." "I think it's average.  It sounds too mild. The name of the ship should be more distinctive and more aggressive," Berego interjected.  "Well, I feel the same way, so I haven't decided to use this ship name yet. The bow of this ship seems to be made of keel, and I am a dragon warrior, so why not call it 'Dragon Horn'  ?" An Rui asked.  "This is at least much better than the last name." Berego nodded. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together out of nowhere, but in the end they couldn't decide on the name, so they had to give up.  Anyway, it will take many days to cast the cannon, so I have a lot of time to think about it slowly.  This ship has extraordinary significance to An Rui. It cannot be treated lightly, but it must be given a good name that satisfies his heart.  The next day, An Rui brought the remaining deep-sea iron to Sheryl, a fair-skinned and beautiful businesswoman, and planned to sell it to her.  Since you want to sell, of course you have to find a businessman like Cheryl who knows everything. Moreover, Cheryl is mainly engaged in the mining business, so she is in the right position.  Cheryl is obviously a businessman who knows the goods. After seeing the deep sea fine iron, she immediately recognized it and made a corresponding valuation.  "These deep-sea fine irons are probably worth about three hundred and twenty gold coins." Cheryl estimated as she carried the heavy bag.  "You can get rid of the small change. For only three hundred gold coins, these deep-sea fine irons are all yours." An Rui said generously.  The last time he met Berrent's group on the street, Cheryl helped him out. He still remembered this kindness and was happy to take the opportunity to repay her in a small way.  "If you have an advantage, don't take advantage of it. If you are not a qualified businessman, three hundred gold coins are just three hundred gold coins." "Haha, you agreed very happily." "I am always very happy to negotiate a business that guarantees profit without loss." Cheryl  He grabbed a small piece of deep-sea fine iron from the bag and looked at it carefully. "From the appearance, these ores should have been dug out not long ago." "Yes." An Rui admitted.  "Could it be that you have found a deep sea fine iron ore vein?" Cheryl played with the ore in her hand, vaguely guessing, and looked at An Rui thoughtfully.  She clearly remembered An Rui's ability to find mineral veins. The mineral vein An Rui found a few days ago had already helped her make a lot of money.  An Rui and Cheryl looked at each other, their pupils contracted several times, and they figured out each other's little thoughts.  This reminded him that he actually held something more valuable than the deep sea iron itself, and that was the vein of deep sea iron!  Anyway, he doesn¡¯t plan to mine this vein for a long time, and this vein is located in the deep sea, which is not conducive to mining. It¡¯s just a good idea to sell it to Cheryl.  In this case, both of them can benefit.  "Yes, I found a deep-sea refined iron ore vein. Are you interested in it?" An Rui asked with a smile.  ¡°I¡¯m interested, very interested.¡± Cheryl said in high spirits.  "The deep-sea refined iron ore veins must be located in the deep sea, but it is not that easy to mine." "It is indeed difficult to mine, but there is always a way to dig it out."?'s.  " "That's true.  An Rui nodded and continued, "The mine vein I discovered is neither big nor small. If all of it is dug out, it can be sold for at least 20,000 gold coins. This is a very considerable amount."  .  " "It is indeed considerable, but if it is mined on a large scale, it will attract the attention of the local admiral, who will impose heavy taxes.  Coupled with the cost of manpower and material resources, it would be good to have 10,000 gold coins in the remaining net profit.  "Cheryl deliberately lowered the value of this mine, which is obviously good for her. "Ten thousand gold coins is also not a small amount.  "An Rui smiled and did not argue with him. "Yes, the money is still a lot, so you can ask for it. I am willing to buy this mine at an 'appropriate' price.  "Cheryl bit down on the word "appropriate" very hard. An Rui touched his chin and thought for a moment. If it were someone else who acquired this mine, he would definitely open his mouth, but in the face of Cheryl, he would still  Let¡¯s ask for a generous price: ¡°Two thousand gold coins.  "An Rui took a deep breath and told a price that was astronomical to the poor.
