Chapter 672: Farewell at the Port
As the sun rises over sea level and the rising morning glow shines on the harbor, the sailors who have finished breakfast have begun their day's work. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The sturdy orcs carry the goods stored in the dock warehouses to merchant ships, which are to be sent to cities on the mainland.
The merchants stood on the ship and commanded, leaving little time for them, and there were other merchant ships waiting to be loaded, constantly urging.
They had to hurry up and load the goods within the stipulated time, and then get the first batch of goods out of the port and on their way to their destinations.
In addition to the cargo, fresh vegetables, fruits, fresh water, and other necessities were also delivered to the ship, and relatives saw them off at the port.
"You must pay attention to safety when you go to sea this time, I am here waiting for you to come back, don't let us wait too long, you are the pillar of this family." ”
"Don't work too hard, eat more fruit on the road, otherwise you will get scurvy, I will pray for you every day, have a good trip." ”
"Okay, this is the last time I will go to sea, and when I come back, I will save enough money to open a shop in Dawning Town, and I will leave in the future, okay?"
Most of the relatives who saw them off at the port were young women, many of them were still holding young children, and the sailors boarded the ship and waved goodbye.
In addition to these merchant ships, there were other ships with strange shapes that attracted a lot of attention.
"Look over there, what kind of ships are they, how come they don't have sails, and they're all covered with a layer of iron, I've never seen such a ship before. ”
"You didn't know it for a long time, but it's called a steamship, and it's an improved version of what the shipyard has been working on, and it's been launched before. ”
"But how fast can such a boat go? If there is no wind, is it just a pulp? How many people would have to be able to row with such a weight? ”
"I don't know much about this, and only the old shipwrights in the shipyard know the details, but it is said that the Duke is on a steamship. ”
"Lord Duke, didn't he return to the Far East only two days ago? Why is he leaving now? ”
"It seems that our Far East Fleet is fighting with people in the East China Sea, and not only in the East China Sea, but also in all directions, and the Duke went to reinforce it. ”
"I see, it seems that for the sake of peace in our Far East, Lord Duke has paid a lot, I understand, you have to work hard. ”
Some people expressed curiosity about the steamship fleet on the sea, and those who knew a little bit about the details explained in amazement.
At this time, the steamship played a long whistle, and some sailors stood on the deck and waved to their families, which was about to leave.
The orcs, who were carrying cargo for other ships, stopped to wipe their sweat, looked at the slowly departing ship from a distance, and saw the young man on deck.
"Isn't that the Duke? It's a pity, I wanted to thank him in person, but I didn't expect him to leave so soon. ”
"Although the Duke has not been back for a long time, he has issued several orders to improve the welfare of our orcs. ”
"It's touching that the Duke really thinks of us as his people, and not as laborers. ”
"If this had been set aside a few years ago, where would we have dared to think about our current life, it would have been thanks to the help of adults that we could live a good life now. ”
"That's right, not only do you no longer have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, as long as you work, you can get paid, and the rest of the money can be saved in the bank. ”
"My little kid comes home every day to tell me what he's learned, and he's recently joined the school's soccer team. ”
"I really want to go to sea with the Duke, and I want to do my part for him by his side, I didn't report my name on the last expedition, it's a pity. ”
"I want to sign up too, but if everyone goes out to fight, who stays to produce, just work hard. ”
"Well, let's repay the Duke for our good work, not only for him, but also for ourselves and our descendants. ”
The orcs grinned when they saw the steamship fleet drift away, and went back to their daily work, all more energetic.
At the same time, among the crowd of people who saw off their relatives at the port, there were several soldiers who stood out as strong as bears.
They were all natives of the Far East, and now served as the Guard, and there were only a handful of people in the Far East who could be protected by them.
"Miss, it's really strange that the adults have left, don't you go to say goodbye to him? Speaking of which, he and you have been busy with work in the past few days since the adults came back, and they haven't had time to see each other, so it really doesn't matter? Miss, don't you usually miss the adults all the time?"
The Lady Affairs Officer, Eun, looked at the young woman who was being guarded by the soldiers in surprise, looking a little confused, as she was the one who should have been seen.
But these two people seem to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, obviously there is a chance to meet, but they are both busy and do not meet.
"Anyway, we have to meet in the future, why do we have to rush now, even if we meet now, we will soon be separated, this is just to increase more emotions, it is better to continue to work, so it is actually a good thing to be busy. ”
The young woman shook her head slightly, she had been silently watching the departure of the fleet, which had become smaller and smaller in sight.
"I still don't understand it a little, your relationship is really strange, since you like it, of course I can't wait to see you right away, and we're together every day. ”
Ewen tilted her head, she was still very young, and she was confused about many things, but she couldn't think of a reason.
"You, you'll know later, let's go back, there is still a lot of work to be done today, if you delay too much time and can't complete the work in time, it will cause trouble to others, and others are waiting for us to complete the review before they can carry out their work." ”
Yuffie smiled lightly and turned to leave the port, when Lin Ye was not in the Far East, she had a pivotal position in the Far East.
And recently a large number of talented young people have come to her, all from old family names.
It is a young man cultivated by the remnants of the previous dynasty in order to restore the country.
It's just that with the collapse of the old party in the royal capital, the old faction in the remnants of the party finally accepted the reality that there was no need to return to the country.
These young people can be regarded as having stepped out of the cage of restoration and can make great achievements in the new soil!
