Chapter 129: Scalpers (Asking for Recommendations)
Golden City is not far from Withered Leaf City, so the journey on this bus is not as long as the middle, and after nearly 6 o'clock in the morning, Sato Kaede's shuttle bus slowly drove into Withered Leaf City.
And Sato Kaede also forced himself to sleep for a while in the car, but the bumps in the road made his sleep quality extremely poor, and now he is watching the shuttle bus enter the Dead Leaf City Bus Station with a big panda.
After getting off the bus and leaving the passenger station, Sato Kaede immediately took a taxi to the nearest elf center, and after feeding the five elves and eating a hearty breakfast himself, he immediately entered the room he rented in the elf center, and then fell asleep.
When Kaede Sato woke up from his sleep, it was already 1 o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as he woke up, Sato Kaede took out the elf food in time to feed the five elves, and he also ordered a takeout to eat, and then, as usual, found a training ground and started daily training.
After the training was completed, the time came to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and at this time, Sato Kaede was walking along the road signs in the direction of the port of Withered Leaf City.
It's also strange to say, Sato Kaede took advantage of the rest time after training to check the current situation of Fengyuan Typhoon climate on the Internet with his laptop, he originally thought it was still the same, but he didn't want to get the information that the typhoon climate was disappearing.
At the same time, through the inquiry of Miss Joy of the Elf Center, it was found that last night, the cruise ship from Withered Leaf City to the port city of Fengyuan had been operating normally, and the tickets had begun to be sold.
Sato Kaede was naturally very surprised by this situation, and hurriedly asked how to buy a ticket, and the result was that the ticket had to be purchased at the ticket office at the port terminal.
As Kaede Sato gets closer and closer to the port dock, the figure of the sea gradually appears in Sato Kaede's swollen eyes, and bursts of sea breeze mixed with the smell of the sea gradually come from the direction of the sea.
In addition to the sea, the sea breeze, and a large number of large and small ships coming out of the dock, a strong sailor in a sailor's suit and a large number of passengers who disembarked from the ship gradually appeared in front of Sato Kaede's eyes.
Seeing so many people from different regions at once, Sato Kaede was not much surprised, Withered Leaf City is the largest port city in Kanto, and ships from all over the world have been gathered here for many years, so it is not surprising that there are people from other continents here.
Soon, by asking for directions, Sato Kaede finally came to his destination, but at this time there was already a long queue to buy tickets.
Because of the Fengyuan typhoon climate, the cruise ships in the withered leaves city to the port cities in the Fengyuan area were also forced to suspend operation, and now the Fengyuan typhoon climate has shown signs of weakening, and the routes that have been suspended for a long time are naturally resuming quickly.
If you think about it, you can also know that the voyage time is already long, and now the typhoon climate is disappearing, and by the time the ship sails to the Fengyuan area, the typhoon climate has completely disappeared.
At the same time, due to the suspension of shipping, there are many people who need to travel to the Hoenn area for the time being, and now that shipping has resumed, these people have heard the news and want to get a ticket to the Hoenn area as soon as possible.
After all, there are so many ships, and the number of tickets is fixed, if you can't grab it now, you will probably have to wait for the next cruise in a few days.
Although there are 10 ticket windows, there are many ticket buyers, and each window is lined up at this time to buy tickets, and Sato Kaede is at the end of the ticket queue at this time because he got the news relatively late.
"I hope I can buy a ticket, otherwise I'll have to wait for the next boat in five days."
Looking at the long queue of ticket buyers in front of him, Sato Kaede's face was helpless, and he secretly thought in his heart that today's scene made him feel a little bit of the taste of Spring Festival.
"What, it's gone, how is it possible, hurry, give a ticket, I'm in a hurry to Fengyuan."
It's a pity that after waiting for Sato Kaede for more than a dozen minutes to come to him to buy a ticket, a man at the front of the long queue who bought a ticket launched an angry roar at the conductor.
Not long after the man who couldn't buy a ticket roared, a similar situation began to appear at the other windows, and it was clear that all the tickets to Fengyuan had been sold out.
Faced with this situation, those who did not succeed in buying tickets expressed their dissatisfaction, but with some of the sailors with their muscles open and all of them in this Poké Ball, there was no violence.
As someone who was also unable to buy a ticket, Kaede Sato is not in a hurry now, and unlike most people who leave in disappointment because they didn't buy a ticket, he is now stuck near the ticket office.
Soon, Sato Kaede's efforts to choose to stay temporarily were not in vain, and a strong sailor in a sailor suit took the initiative to approach him and asked him with a smile on his face which city he needed to go to in Fengyuan.
No matter where you go, whenever there is a shortage of things, a group of people who are interested in it will appear, and yes, because there is no limit on the number of tickets per person, the scalpers we know have chosen to stand up.
Now, the unusually dark-skinned sailor who appeared in front of Kaede Sato is a veteran scalper.
In fact, there are quite a few scalper sailors like the Swarthy Sailor, after all, at this time of year, the Hoenn region has a typhoon climate, and those of them who work as sailors in Dead Leaf City know it all too well.
Therefore, these scalper sailors have long been eyeing this group of Fengyuan passengers who were stranded in Withered Leaf City because of the typhoon weather, so when they didn't start selling tickets, they got a lot of tickets through acquaintances in charge of ticket sales.
Now that the ticket window is completely sold out, it's time for them scalpers to come out, and people like Kaede Sato, who have a very strong desire to buy tickets, are obviously their best customers.
"Do you have a ticket to Fengyuan Shuijing City? I want the fastest ship to get there, not a cargo ship. ”
Facing this scalper sailor with a profiteer's smile, Sato Kaede didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained his intentions.
"Yes, of course there is, the Sant'Anda, this is the fastest, safest and most luxurious cruise ship in our Dead Leaf City, it only takes two days to go to Shuijing City, and this one in my hand is a high-end ticket, so the price, you know, it takes 100,000 alliance coins."
After hearing Sato Kaede's request, the scalper sailor's eyes suddenly lit up, and the smile on his face became even brighter, and he hurriedly said to Sato Kaede, and took out a gorgeous-looking ticket from his body.
"I bought it." *2
Looking at the ticket in the hands of the scalper sailor, although he knew that he was going to be slaughtered by the other party for a large sum of money, Sato Kaede still didn't hesitate much, and directly chose to buy it.
However, there was not only one person who didn't hesitate as much as Kaede Sato, and a well-dressed young female trainer and Kaede Sato said at the same time.
