There was a huge pier on the seashore. There were countless ships coming in and out of the pier. These ships were all sea-going ships. Each of them was huge, but here, they were as inconspicuous as small boats.
Not far behind the pier, one could see a huge city. The city walls were dozens of feet high and were made of huge stones. From afar, it looked like a giant beast lying on the ground.
At this time, Zhao Hai and the others had already disembarked from Captain Long's ship. The indifferent youth had already left, but Zhao Hai and the fat man didn't leave immediately. Instead, they were talking to Captain Long.
"Uncle Long, we'll go now. Don't worry, we'll definitely look for you when we return to Broken Sea City."
"That's right, Uncle Long. The seafood you make is really amazing. I want to eat the seafood you make next time. By the way, Uncle Long, what's the name of your restaurant? I'll definitely visit your restaurant next time."
"Hahaha, my restaurant is called Longfeng Restaurant, the same name as my original ship. But now, I'm going to call this ship 'Longfeng'. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to my Longfeng Restaurant in Broken Sea City. I still have some influence in Broken Sea City."
"Longfeng Restaurant? Is that the Longfeng Restaurant on Dinghai Street in Broken Sea City? Oh, that's a big restaurant. I didn't expect Uncle Long's restaurant to be called Longfeng Restaurant. Uncle Long, you're the owner of such a big restaurant, how come you're still running your own ship? "
"It's not a big restaurant, it's just a partnership. Haha, the old guys on our ship have been running ships all their lives. They really can't let go of this business, so they come out from time to time to run ships. Our family's restaurant was handed over to the children to manage, and they're doing a good job now. Old bones like us can only run ships a few times when we can move, but in the future, we won't be able to run even if we want to."
"Hahaha, you're too polite, Uncle Dragon. Take care of yourself, Uncle Dragon. We'll definitely look for you when we return. Let's have a few more drinks, then we'll take our leave. It's our first time on the Thick Earth Continent, so we need to find a place to rest."
"Okay, okay, you guys go quickly. This period of time is the time when ships gather. The rooms in the inns in the city are very tight. You guys go quickly. We are staying on the ship. If you have any problems and we haven't left yet, you can come to the ship to find us. If we can help you, we will definitely help."
"Okay, Uncle Long, then it's settled. The two of us will leave first." After Zhao Hai finished speaking, he and the fat man cupped their fists to Captain Long, then turned and left.
Looking at the two people leaving, Captain Long couldn't help but show a trace of reluctance in his eyes. Finally, he sighed, then turned to the people standing beside his ship and said, "Quickly, unload the goods on the ship, quickly." These people had been waiting for this order for a long time, so as soon as they heard the Captain, they immediately went to work.
At this time, Zhao Hai and Fatty arrived outside the pier. There were a lot of carriages parked outside. Some of these carriages were flat carriages, some were very large, while some were carriages with cabins. They didn't look very big. The coachmen were all standing beside their carriages, nobody dared to move.
When Zhao Hai saw this, he nodded, then he turned to the fat man and said, "Fatty, let's go. We'll take a carriage to the city." Then he led the fat man to a carriage with cabins.
As soon as they arrived, the coachman immediately said, "Greetings, Mister. Do you need a carriage? My carriage is cheap and comfortable. It only costs five silver coins to enter the city from here. "
From the pier to the city, Zhao Hai looked around. It was about 30 li away, it wasn't too far. Five silver coins wasn't too expensive, so he nodded and said, "Alright, we'll take your carriage. Let's go, Fatty, get on."
Fatty wasn't polite, he nodded and got on the carriage. This was the first time he went out, so he didn't understand the rules. Therefore, Zhao Hai had to take care of this matter.
After the two got on the carriage, the carriage immediately set off and headed towards the city. Fatty sat in the carriage and felt a bit uncomfortable. The carriage wasn't very big, and he was very fat, so he felt a bit crowded.
Fatty looked at the carriage curiously, then he smiled and said, "Although it's a bit narrow, it's still not bad. Five silver coins isn't too expensive."
Zhao Hai looked at the fatty and said, "You're a Prince, so you really don't understand the hardships of the people. Five silver coins isn't that expensive. Back in the Arctic Continent, five silver coins is enough for a family to eat. Here in the Thick Earth Continent, five silver coins is enough for a meal." The fatty nodded and said, "I'm afraid that five silver coins is enough for a meal.
Fatty clearly didn't have much concept of money. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Can five silver coins really do that much? This is really rare. "
Zhao Hai gave him an unhappy look and didn't say anything. Before long, the carriage entered the city. Upon arriving, Zhao Hai saw three words written on the city wall, Calm Wave City.
After Zhao Hai and Fatty entered Calm Wave City, Zhao Hai turned to the waiter and said, "Waiter, do you know any good inns that still have rooms? You can just go there. "
When the waiter heard Zhao Hai, he immediately complied. Before long, the carriage arrived in front of a hotel. This was a very big hotel. It had five floors and was made of stone. It was painted blue and looked very beautiful. In front of the door, there was a large signboard with the words "Calm Wave Hotel" written on it.
After stopping the carriage, the waiter went to the back and opened the door. Then he saluted Zhao Hai and Fatty and said, "Two Sirs, this is the Calm Wave Hotel. Although the rooms here are a bit expensive, the prices of the inns in the city aren't cheap. But this is the only place that has rooms."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he casually threw a gold coin to the waiter and said, "Alright, there's no need for change." Then he followed Fatty inside. The waiter stood there and loudly said, "Many thanks to the two Sirs."
Zhao Hai didn't have any reaction, but Fatty frowned. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Old Zhao, why did the coachman shout so loudly? It scared the hell out of me. "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "This might be a habit that they have developed. When a guest gives them money, they must shout loudly. This way, the guest will feel honored."
Fatty suddenly understood, "Oh, so there are so many things to say. I really didn't think about it." While they were talking, the two had already arrived in front of the hotel.
The door of the hotel was open, and there was a curtain made of seashells hanging on the door. It looked very beautiful. In front of the door stood two waiters. When they saw Zhao and the fat man, they immediately reached out and lifted the curtain. "Welcome, Mister." Zhao and the fat man nodded. "Mister, welcome!" Zhao and the fat man nodded. Zhao Hai didn't pay attention to them and directly went inside. Fatty looked at the two, but he didn't say anything. He directly followed Zhao Hai into the hotel.
Just as the two waiters were disappointed, they found two silver coins flying towards them. They immediately received the coins and then loudly said, "Many thanks to the two Sirs."
Zhao Hai didn't pay attention to them as he looked at the hotel. After entering the hotel, they saw a lobby. On both sides of the lobby, there were two places to rest. There were sofas where people were sitting and chatting. Facing the lobby's door was a bar. There were several girls sitting at the bar. These girls weren't very old, and they looked pretty good.
Zhao Hai led Fatty to the bar and then said to one of the girls, "We want two rooms. If you have a suite with two rooms, then we can have one."
The girl immediately replied, "Alright, Mister. The fourth floor of the hotel has suites like this. Each suite has a living room, a dining room, and two bedrooms. Each bedroom also has a washroom. Each suite costs one bell a day. Does Mister want such a suite?"
Zhao Hai nodded, then he picked up a handful of gold coins and threw them on the bar. Then he said, "Let's open it for two days. If we need to stay two days later, then I'll let you know."
The girl immediately nodded, then she picked up the gold coins that Zhao Hai threw on the bar and counted them. Then she said, "It's exactly 20 gold coins. Mister, please wait a moment." Then she put the gold coins away. Then she sat down and took out a wooden card from a box and said, "Mister, this is your room card. You can take this card and go upstairs to find your room. When you enter, you can place the card on the door. When you go out, please take it off."
Zhao Hai took the wooden card and looked at it. Then he said, "What if someone steals the card while we're in the room?"
The girl smiled and said, "That won't happen. Mister can rest assured. We have people guarding the door on each floor. If you don't take the card, then you won't be able to go upstairs. Even if you go upstairs, there will also be people guarding the door. Nobody will be able to take the card away."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned to Fatty and said, "Let's go. Let's go up and take a look at the room first. Then we'll go out for a stroll." Fatty naturally listened to Zhao Hai. He didn't go out much. This time, he went out on a whim. He directly took the transmission formation to Broken Sea City and then boarded the ship. Therefore, he didn't know much about the outside world. Naturally, everything was now under Zhao Hai's management.
Zhao Hai took the card and then followed the girl up the stairs. Sure enough, there were two people standing next to the stairs. The two people looked at the card in Zhao Hai's hand and didn't say anything. They just let Zhao Hai and Fatty go upstairs.
Zhao Hai led Fatty up the stairs. When they reached the second floor, there were two people standing there. The two people also looked at the card in Zhao Hai's hand and didn't say anything. The same was true for the stairs on the third floor. After the two went up to the fourth floor, they found that there were also people on the fourth floor. However, their rooms were on the fourth floor. Naturally, Zhao Hai wouldn't go up to the fifth floor and directly went to his room. However, in the corridor on the fourth floor, he saw two people wearing the same clothes. They were clearly people from the hotel. It seems like the girl downstairs wasn't wrong.
