Chapter 387
"You don't feel wrong, everyone says, although it is shocking to look at the words. But regardless of the name of the seawall or the fact that it was not pleasant to see what happened back then. Because everybody more or less saw the decisiveness...", Lausanne whispered to him.
There are more than 4,000 ships parked in the huge harbor, the largest ones are hundreds of meters long, and the smaller ones are only a few tens of meters; There are all kinds of strange styles, sailing ships and mechanical boats, as well as all kinds of strange shapes of ships. It's neatly arranged, as if you're at a boat exhibition. So many ships occupy 1/2 of the harbor, and the rest is empty. On the left side of these ships, there is a pier in the middle of the harbor, hundreds of meters long, which extends to the middle of the sea, which seems to be dedicated to landing. Several huge lifting devices for loading and unloading large cargo stand tall on the shore. The harbor was quiet, there were not a few people, only the sound of ships being pushed by the waves and the waves crashing.
The old captain explained to Xinghai that this was because today was a day off. The dockers were busy resting and went to the bar. The weekly rest day is thunderous. Ships that arrive on this day will not be able to unload until the next day. This is because, in the past, there used to be a day every week when the sea was very violent, and strong winds and waves could send people flying into the sky. It was believed that there was no worship of the sea, so it became a sea festival, and it gradually evolved into a rest day.
When Xinghai asked the old captain, he didn't believe that the storm was the reason why he didn't sacrifice to the sea. The old captain laughed and said, "I don't know, but I know that it's always good to rest." However, it is said that in the past, Normas was hit by storms and tsunamis every year, but since the festival has been held, it has rarely happened. ”
Above the harbour, there are neat palm trees, evenly distributed on both sides of the road. At several intersections, palm trees can also be seen, stretching into the invisible distance. There are many small two-storey houses, mainly of stone and brick. Uniform white walls, blue roofs, and occasionally many creepers on the walls. It's a pleasing sight to behold. In the distance, far from the shore, some tall buildings began to take place. The light reflected from those roofs was colorful and dazzling.
Xinghai stared into the distance, the tall tower that was said to be in the center of the city. A hundred-meter-tall tower-shaped building, all white, is the center of Normas's Hunters' Guild, and the Adventurers' Guild is also there. There were huge seagulls flying overhead, and Xinghai longed to fly over the tower like them.
The boat docked at the dock, and the captain drove them off the boat and then stopped on the other side of the port. "Rookies, you've arrived ashore, have a good trip, and you're lucky to have arrived safely." As the captain spoke, he casually glanced at the sea of stars. The first mate handed Xinghai a black crystal card, saying that it was an extra vessel. Xinghai was holding the card and looking left and right, but was pulled by Lausanne to say goodbye to everyone. Marr and Richie hugged each other and hurried away. They are going to catch a car, and today they may have the opportunity to get on the bus back to their hometown, and two years away has made him feel like an arrow in his heart. Many people had to wait a few more days for Normas to return, and Xinghai decided to follow Lausanne and the Rocky brothers for two days. After all, this is a completely foreign world to him, and life on the island is too different from here. He had to learn it quickly and get used to it.
Normas was the largest commercial city in the Western Continent Empire. It has its own uniqueness, except for the specialties shipped back from overseas. There are also many landlocked countries that transport and exchange products for the islands. This is a real logistics hub. The reason is that many of these islands, like the Island of Greed. Either it is difficult to land, the monsters on the island are vicious, the islanders are fierce, and the people are tough; Either the route is biased, in some reef concentrations, or there are sea monsters everywhere, which is difficult to reach; What's more, some islands are in a special climate all year round, such as heavy rain, thunderstorms... Dangerous and abnormal. As a result, some products can only be exchanged with the islanders, because outsiders are forbidden to enter the island, or it is difficult to hunt. Some specialties can only be collected by adventurers with their lives and luck.
Xinghai handed over the pair of white jade snails to the first mate at will, and the first mate Gu Luo made a price of 15 Nas, because this thing was difficult to collect and scarce. After deducting the fare, the first mate actually gave him a crystal card containing 100,000 Nas, but he didn't know it. On the way to the hotel, Lausanne explained to Xinghai the currency used on land, and taught Xinghai how to use the black crystal card. Xinghai did what Lausanne said, and wrapped his thoughts around the black crystal card, and after a few seconds, he found that his thoughts seemed to have been eaten by the card. Knowing that this is what Lausanne said, a sign of successful binding. He hurriedly gave the card to Lausanne, who taught him how to check the amount of currency contained in the card. When it was found that there were 100,000 Nas in the card, Lausanne sighed again. As the common currency of the Nastwei continent, 100 Nas is enough for an ordinary family of three to live a prosperous life for a month, and tens of thousands of Nass ordinary families may not be able to survive for a lifetime. Even if he came from a good background, he had never gotten so much Nas. Seeing that although Xinghai was still young, with all this money, he was also a little rich, which naturally made him feel emotional. However, Lausanne is also very happy for Xinghai, because it means that Xinghai does not need to run for money. Although he knew that Xinghai was not an ordinary child, he didn't want to see him stumped by money. Many adventurers are born and die again and again, just in exchange for money.
Xinghai was very curious, pointing and asking along the way. Anything you haven't seen before, you have to ask for clarification. Lausanne was also very patient, answering one by one, without the slightest impatience. Rocky, the big man, followed the two of them step by step, and did not fall behind half a point. After a long walk, the palm trees on both sides of the road were replaced by plane trees. Lausanne said it meant they had entered the business district. You can find a hotel in the immediate vicinity.
The three of them stood at the door of an inn. The hotel is also a small two-story building with a blue roof and white walls, but it occupies a large area. The signboard reads Seaside Inn. On the wooden board erected in front of the store, there is a detailed list of accommodation prices and the prices of the food and beverages provided.
"It's not close to the sea... How is it called a seaside hotel? Xinghai turned his head, laughed, and asked habitually.
"Guest, this is the closest hotel to the sea!" Without waiting for Lausanne to answer, a female voice came out. Then a girl ran out of "Da Da Da". He was seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a pale yellow dress and a yellow hairpin on his head. With a round face and a sweet smile.
One night is 4 Nas a room, including 2 meals. Lausanne wanted to change to a more expensive hotel, but at Xinghai's insistence, he didn't say anything. Three people live in two rooms, on the second floor in the direction of the street. The door is to the inner courtyard, the window can see the street, Xinghai is very satisfied with the room. Lausanne took Lodge out into the street, saying that he was going to buy clothes, and both of them were still wearing the same clothes as they had been on the boat. Xinghai has been very excited for a few days, and he has asked a lot of things along the way, so he needs to be quiet. He said that he would stay alone in his room to rest.
"It's okay, you can eat as many as you like, then take a break, and I'll take you to the night market in the evening." Lausanne said as he left. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
