Chapter 390: The Dock

Of course, the other factions of the "Freedom Front" have never lacked the spirit of dedication to their ideals, although they have no absolute combat discipline to speak of.

For such a group of people, once the Fish-People launch an all-out war, or a full-scale invasion, the result can be imagined, and the fearless "Freedom Front" will definitely not lack warriors who will go forward without their own lives.

On the other hand, whether the Fishman Empire can really launch a full-scale war against the West, Chen Mu is still skeptical for the time being, after all, the intelligence is very limited, and it is difficult to have reliable reasoning.

But if it is only a light war, then with the deep roots of the merfolk in the "Golden Sea" and the resistance spirit of the "Freedom Front", then it is really possible to repel the attack of the Fishman Empire.

For Chen Mu, this is of course good news, at least for a long time in the future, the "Shangmeng" should be a relatively safe area, and it is very suitable for Gou to accumulate strength there.

The biggest problem now is how to escape from the "Golden Sea" safely, as long as you get to the "East China Sea", it will be much easier to think about going to the "Business Alliance".

In the name of the Jiang family, although the fleet did not escape the results of the inspection of the merfolk patrol team on "Treasure Island", it at least had the power to cut the queue, and there was no need to wait outside for a long time.

In the face of the inspection, Chen Mu was very calm, and the ending was the same as he thought beforehand, these ordinary mermaid patrols couldn't distinguish his disguise at all, and after a check, they let the fleet go.

After entering the port, the fleet had a rare three-day holiday, and it was true that there had been no vacation before, and everyone was so tired that they were so tired that they could not make up for the holiday, so that everyone could rest and improve their morale.

Chen Mu didn't act alone, it was in the limelight right now, there was no need to take this risk, he still went ashore with the brothers and the five-person group to hang out, and the monkey continued to lurk beside Li Fu to prevent this old guy from thinking of any tricks.

After a few people went ashore, they were really hanging out, the temporary workers were all hard, and there was not much pocket money in their pockets, so they were willing to spend it indiscriminately.

In the end, Chen Mu was appropriately generous, saying that he would invite his brothers to the tavern for a few drinks, of course, that is, the lowest-grade tavern in the dock area specializing in sailors' business.

Even so, everyone was so happy that they praised Chen Mu one after another, especially the five-person group, don't look at the prestige in a bunch of temporary workers, in fact, they haven't drunk alcohol for a long time, even if it is the lowest-grade tavern, it is really not something that temporary workers can afford.

In fact, there are a lot of temporary workers like them, and the trade exchanges in the western seas are very developed, and there are many trade fleets coming and going, and the total number is so large, and accidents are naturally inevitable, and most of the survivors are reduced to temporary workers.

As an ordinary low-level temporary worker, it would be good to be able to find a job and eat a bowl of food, but there is no remuneration at all, and it is impossible to save any money, and the spending power is almost equivalent to nothing.

Chen Mu's current identity is also a temporary worker, so naturally he doesn't dare to pretend to be too much, that is, invite them to the tavern to drink a few cups of inferior "seahorse urine".

The raw material of this inferior liquor is really a kind of seahorse urine, which contains a part of the biological alcohol, and the taste is actually okay, but this thing also has a certain toxicity, which is a side effect, and the yield is okay, so "hippocampus urine" mixed with water is the most popular inferior liquor here.

Chen Mu and the others casually entered a tavern, the door was tattered, and even the signboard was mostly rotten, and they couldn't see the name of the tavern clearly.

The business of the tavern seems to be not good, and even the lights in it are reluctant to order a few more, it seems very dim, and the field is not small, but there are only a dozen individual customers sitting sparsely, and at a glance there are all down-and-out guys, some are worse than temporary workers, and it is estimated that they are the kind of unlucky ghosts who are ready to jump into the sea to feed the fish after drinking this cup.

Such a miserable business, in today's "Treasure Island" is also a strange wonder, you must know that under the influence of Chen Mu's reward order, many fleets are stranded here, and the number of ships queuing outside the port is even more terrifying.

For the entertainment industry on the island, this is great news, the crew is stranded on the road, they have to eat, drink and sleep, a little spare money, and have to think about entertainment, and it is normal to drink a little wine.

As soon as Chen Mu was strolling around, he could see that most of the pubs in the dock area were full, and some were still lined up outside, especially those bars with dancing girls, which were even more crowded, and the drinks could be sold out of stock.

On the other hand, this tavern is not small, although the location is a little worse, in the corner of the dock area, but it is not completely impossible to find, and the result is only so many customers in total, which does seem very abnormal.

Chen Mu deliberately chose this place, because the outside of this tavern was very deserted, and he didn't want to go to those crowded and sweaty taverns, especially the kind where the music was deafening, it was too noisy.

This tavern is much quieter, it doesn't matter what the grade is, Chen Mu himself is not interested in drinking, and there is no need for dancing girls or anything, the aesthetic standards in the wasteland are really peculiar, most of the goods in the tavern make Chen Mu feel disgusting, but he doesn't want to find money, let alone spend money.

The long bar counter is very dark, only a dim fish fat lamp hangs in the middle, which is a very cheap lighting product, and the side effect is that it smells fishy when lit, and this kind of lamp will not be used in places with a little grade.

Underneath the lamp, a tall man with a white beard was slowly wiping his wine glasses, and when he had finished wiping them, he put them aside, and there were already more than a dozen empty wine glasses in front of him, and there were seven or eight more waiting to be wiped next to him.

There are very few glass products in the wine glasses here, and in the open sea area, glass products are also considered a kind of luxury, although thanks to the development of trade and the convenience of shipping, glass products are still relatively easy to transport.

But in general, the merfolk don't bother to use glass products at all, and most of the humans here are adventurers, outlaws, and traders, which are extremely dangerous jobs, and everyone is not so literary and artistic, and they generally pay attention to straightforwardness, happiness, and are not interested in glass products.

Therefore, only a few people who are particular about it will use glass wine glasses, and they are only those who are not high or low, the real big people, and naturally there are more rare treasures, such as all kinds of wine utensils produced by the mermaid tribe that can be called works of art, which are all sold to human nobles.
