Chapter 296: Captain Gino

The sea city of Coritino, the northernmost part of the Aresanrete Empire.

There is a natural deep-water harbor that can accommodate a wide variety of large-scale large fishing vessels and merchant ships, and the marina has a very wide coastline with many marinas.

After the harsh winter, the sea city of Coritino ushered in spring, and all kinds of sea ships of all sizes began to travel densely between the harbors.

Gino is the captain of the giant sea ship "Gino". He has been running his giant sea vessel for 40 years.

Every year, Gino would sail from the sea city of Coritino and follow the coastline, first all the way east, around the entire Arissanrete Empire, all the way to the southern seas of the Arissanrete Empire.

Then continue straight south, enter the sea area of the Junn Empire, and then follow the coastline of the Junn Empire, circle around, and then from the other side of the sea, back to Coritino Sea City.

Such a huge circle would take a full 5 months. Gino makes a round trip twice a year along this route.

In this way, the semi-annual voyage can bring hundreds of thousands of gold coins to Gino.

In Coritino Sea City, there are more than a dozen captains like Gino, and Yerif is one of them, and Yerif is also the only friend of Gino's few captains of these giant sea ships.

"Have a nice trip, Gino, my partner. Yerif shouted to Gino on the dock.

"Of course, it will have a smooth ride, but there are still many goods that have not been carried up, and it is estimated that it will not leave until two days later. Gino, who was smoking a cigarette, shouted back.

"Wow! It's not a good idea to go to sea on time, Gino. Yerif looked at him with a smile.

"There is no way, there is no way, there are still two full compartments of goods that have not yet arrived, and it is estimated that it will not arrive until tomorrow. And then toss, even if it goes very well, you will not be able to set off until the day after tomorrow. Gino looked very helpless.

"Hahaha, then, I can only wish you good luck. Yerif replied with a laugh.

"Thank you for the taunts, damn old thing, get out of here, get out of here. Gino laughed and cursed.

"Hey, old fellow. Yerif smiled and paced, slowly leaving.

Ignoring Yerif's ridicule. Gino began to count the heavy cargo list again, surrounded by several members of the board of directors of the various nautical chambers on board.

It wasn't long before Gino heard the sound of horses' hooves, from far and near. He looked up and saw a group of men riding horses towards him.

"Your Excellency, this is the owner of a great sea vessel, Captain Gino. His ship, the Gino, was one of the largest of these giant ships. The bearded guide introduced Li Xuan and his party with a humble face.

Li Xuan and the others ignored him, did not turn over and dismount, but just drove the horse towards Jino and the others who were counting the list of goods.

Jino frowned, put down the list in his hand, and stared at Li Xuan and his party who were coming towards him.

"Hello, Captain Gino. "It was Emma the sorcerer on horseback who spoke.

"Your Excellencies, I don't know what is going on with you?" Gino didn't have a smile on his face, but he asked politely. Although they are unhappy, these people have a very special temperament, and their eyes are very indifferent.

"We need a couple of ships as big as yours to make a trip to the north. Emma said as she looked at Gino.

"To the north?" said Gino frowned.

"Yes, to the north. Emma nodded and replied with a smile.

Gino frowned slightly and looked at Emma, shook his head slowly, and then said to Emma: "I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, my ship is about to go to sea and go east. If you're going to the north, no big ship is going north at this time. You can find some small sea boats, and these small sea boats have a route to the north. ”

Without hesitation, Gino refused these impertinent and impertinent requests, and there were few giant ships like theirs willing to go north.

The sea city of Coritino does have some small sea vessels that would be willing to go north, but these are not very numerous and usually not very large. Sailing north is often a very risky one. Not only is it the risk of crossing a strait, but most importantly the many transactions that make it to the north are often very volatile and difficult.

Emma frowned and said to Gino, "If you're willing to take us north, the price isn't an issue. ”

Gino felt disdain in his heart, and his face did not express it, but he shook his head and said to Emma: "Your Excellency, this is not a matter of price. ”

When Emma wanted to say something again, Li Xuan slowly raised his hand to stop him, and looked at Gino with indifferent eyes, his eyes were indifferent.

"How long will the ship sail from here to the far north?" Li Xuan asked in a deep voice.

Jino noticed from the time Li Xuan and his party came over, these people were led by this handsome and unusually handsome young man, and when he saw him open his mouth to ask, although he didn't want to talk to him, he still replied: "When it goes well, it usually takes a week to reach the north." ”

"...... a week," Li Xuan's brows slowly furrowed.

After a deep groan, Li Xuan slowly asked again, "How many nautical miles are there to the north from here?"

Li Xuan's words made Gino stunned for a moment, and shook his head: "I don't know what Your Excellency's 'nautical mile' means, but it seems to be a unit of length, and a week refers to the time it takes for my ship to sail to the north, and if it is someone else's boat, the time will be doubled." ”

Li Xuan nodded: "Very good, tomorrow I will meet 9 ships about the same size as yours, take me to the Far North, and I will pay you a gratuity." ”

Gino obviously laughed angrily: "Your Excellency, I said, my ship ....... ”

Halfway through the sentence, the voice stopped abruptly!

An ice-pick spear came out of thin air against his throat!

The cold air and the shadow of death made Gino shiver.

"Pavilion... Excellency...... 9, 9 ships will definitely appear tomorrow, there will definitely be ......" Gino trembled.

Li Xuan nodded and slowly turned the horse's head.

The hooded robed caveman grinned at Fiona, "I knew it was going to happen, that's how this guy did to me. ”

Fiona rolled her eyes and looked at Li Xuan, the corners of her lips curled into a charming smile.

The group quickly left the dock.

"Carl, you stay and keep an eye on them. After exiting the docks, Emma spoke to Carl behind her.

"Yes, Lord Emma. Karl immediately replied!
