The Crescent Moon and Haihai 1 headed for the western continent, and after continuing to sail for two days and one night, they could see the coastline in the distance.

Donner stood on the side of the boat with his hands in his hands, quietly looking at the soft chirping of seagulls rising from the coastal sky.

This section of the sea route was not too boring, and all the way to the west, the Crescent sank several daring pirate ships.

The pirates who fell into the sea, as for whether they were dead or alive, Donner didn't care so much.

Dead, just to repay them for the crimes they committed in the past, and the eastern seas are peaceful, and if they survive, they can also let these pirates spread out, and from then on, there is a fear from the red flag in the eastern seas.

Old Yuri is old, his body is not as good as that of a young man, and it is really sleepy to be bumpy at sea for so many days, and he is taking a lunch break in the cabin lounge at this time.

The sailors on the deck performed their duties, and the members of the escort sat neatly on both sides of the deck.

Jason held a volume of Donner's Emancipation Proclamation and read it with relish, sometimes frowning, sometimes in a flash of realization, while Mike and Hans stayed with Donner.

The endless coastline separates the blue ocean from the continent, and the two seagoing ships keep sailing forward at an even speed.

After about an hour, Hans pointed to the distant continent and said, "Commander, do you remember that estuary?"

Donner looked in the direction Hans pointed, and from a distance, the coastline was a black line, but at this point, a gap appeared in the opposite shoreline.

This gap is the outlet of a river on the opposite continent that flows into the sea.

Donner thought about it, looking faintly familiar, but not sure.

Hans lamented: "It was from this estuary that we entered the sea from the mine area. ”

Oh! No wonder it looks familiar.

On that day, he led the slaves to escape from the mine area, followed the pirate group led by Willy, and came to the sea in a sea ship, which is still vivid.

At that time, a wave of enthusiasm was emboldened, leaving life behind, and then panicked and followed the sea wolf pirate group with the flow.

Now, after nearly a year, I'm back in the same place, and I'm back with a force stronger than the original pirate group.

"Rest in peace!" Downer muttered

Hans leaned against the side of the ship, swept by the sea breeze, not knowing what he was thinking, and his expression was complicated.

Mike also looked into the distance, thinking of the slaves who were mining together, of Reagan and Uncle Cood, and of Ed who jumped into the sea.

They died, but they were lucky enough to be alive and come here again.

He was thinking, will Heaven accept a bunch of slaves, and if you are in Hell, will you be okay?

Hans regained his expression and turned to Donald, "Last time, we went out to patrol the sea, and we once approached here, a bay on the edge of the sea, a harbor town and a dock were rebuilt, and I heard that this land was given to a nobleman by the kingdom. ”

"Oh?" said Donner, surprised, "then...... It means that there is a new lord here. ”

"Yes!" Hans nodded silently, "Commander, are we going to go ashore?"

"Come on!" said Donner, "here we are, just to take a look." ”

Hans passed the order to the sailors, and the two ships headed straight for the shore.

"Jason, come here. Donner shouted to Jason, who was hiding in the shade and reading the Emancipation Proclamation.

Jason looked up, puzzled for a moment, then got up and patted the dust on his buttocks, came to Donner and asked, "Commander, is there something wrong?"

"There's a harbor town across the street, and we're going to dock at the dock and go ashore and have some food and water," Downer said.

So, when you go ashore, the two ships will be dominated by you on the surface, and a few of us will pretend to be your retinue and slaves. ”

Jason was stunned and puzzled, "Why do you want to do this?"

Donner pointed to the slave marks on his face and said: "We all have slave marks on our faces, and it is not very convenient to come into contact with people when we go ashore, so this time when we come to the mainland, we must focus on you, including Manhill Harbor, of course, I will explain to you if there is anything." ”

In this world, not to mention people with a bit of status such as aristocratic merchants, even ordinary people look down on slaves extremely, and no one will want to talk to a dirty slave at all, because this will make people feel that their status is lowered.

When Jason heard the explanation, it dawned on him.

He couldn't help but glance at the scar on Donner's face, to be honest, after staying on Cancer Island for so long, it seemed that he had ignored the existence of the slave mark.

Not only him, but almost everyone on the island, has forgotten the existence of the slave mark, and also the existence of the slave.

Donner explained some other things by the way, and discussed some details with Jason and the others after going ashore, so as not to make any mess.

The two seagoing ships sailed safely, and they encountered several merchant ships on the way, and it seemed that they were also going to dock at a small harbor.

An hour later, the Crescent Moon and the Sea One sailed into the bay with several ships they encountered, while three ships departed from the harbor.

The ships staggered by, and the Crescent Moon and Haike 1 came to the dock.

There are seven or eight wooden trestles at the wharf, and more than a dozen sea vessels are docked.

The port appears to have been built from the ground up, and the houses and infrastructure on the shore are still rudimentary.

But there are a lot of people, and it is estimated that there are still hundreds of people on the shore in this small port.

From the dress of these people, there were coolies with items such as flats and carts, sailors in tattered sailors' suits, mercenaries with swords, and merchants with guards and slaves hurrying to and fro.

A little farther away, two teams of twenty people, wearing leather armor, with long swords hanging from their waists, and spears in their hands, constantly patrolling back and forth.

The leader is estimated to be the captain, and if he accidentally approaches the coolies, sailors, or slaves of the patrol, he raises his hand and whips them up.

If it is a mercenary, it is only a little scolding or two, and when it meets a merchant or a rich man in gorgeous clothes, he immediately changes to a smiling expression.

From the demeanor of the captain of the guards, it is completely clear that all classes of this port town are in place.

Similarly, this is also a microcosm of the social class of the entire Holy Light Continent.

Donner stood behind Jason, silently surveying the situation around the docks, keeping some important details in mind.

The two ships were close to the dock, and as soon as the anchor was dropped, a tax collector wearing a three-cornered hat and silk boarded the ship with two escorts.

The tax collector held a book bound in an unknown animal skin, and took a quill pen and glanced at the ship.

Seeing that the ship did not hang the flag and family crest unique to the nobility, he immediately changed to a proud expression: "Welcome to the Harwan Pier, I am the tax collector of the dock, as for the name, you don't need to know." There is a berthing fee for docking here, five silver coins a day. ”

Five silver coins a day?

Jason glanced back at Donner, who nodded quietly, and then Jason indifferently took out five silver coins and handed them to the tax collector.

The tax collector put the silver coin in his pocket, took the quill, and asked, "What's your name, what are you doing?"

Jason's face did not change and said, "Jason, merchant, come to the dock to replenish food and water, and rest by the way." ”

The tax collector bowed his head and recorded in his notebook, and said, "You have to pay five silver coins on time every day, and you can pay them all at once if you need to dock for a few days." ”

After hearing this, Jason said, "I'll pay it for three days for the time being." So saying, he gave the silver to the tax collector.

The tax collector motioned to his subordinate to hand Jason a flag and a wooden plaque, saying, "Don't make trouble in the harbor and the town, or you will be punished by your lord." ”
