The north wind blows, and the setting sun sends the boat back.

After the sunset just fell into the mountain, only an orange-red sunset was left on the top of the mountain. Crescent moons and stars appeared in the night sky to the east.

A fleet of ships rushed down with the north wind and water flow, and soon left the mountains behind.

The boss of the boat headed the boat, directed the sailor to hang up the boat lights, and then came to the young knight standing on the bow.

"His Excellency Gao Wen, we will be at our destination soon." The ship boss said respectfully to the young knight...

Gao Wen nodded to the ship boss and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

The boss of the ship bowed respectfully to Gao Wen and then stepped back. He ran the boat all his life. This was the first time he met the knight master who spoke to him with such a kindness.

This was the third time that Gauven brought a wool-carrying team to Linda's territory, Prato, and now the river to Prato is full of fleets carrying wool and grain.

At the beginning of the year, Charles ordered Afu to start controlling wool sales in the Prato area. As a result, this year's prairie drought caused a significant reduction in wool production and the Meccaden family's disaster relief, which caused the Orc tribe to sell wool that was much less than in previous years to the Meccaden family.

The most convenient transportation of bulk cargo by water is the most convenient, but this year the water level of rivers in the north is generally low, and a large area of ​​river beaches that were originally underwater were exposed by the river, which made cargo ships afraid to load too much cargo, which in turn led to the need to use more cargo ships to transport wool.

It was enough to organize so many cargo ships, but fortunately, Charles left him a few tips when forging the holy land, so that he could open it when his head hurts.

So when Gao Wen led the convoy to the port of Avalon City for the first time, Mordred, who had opened all the tips in advance, asked Gao Wen to seek help from the Forging Temple. Those cargo ships that brought ore from all over the country could transport wool after cleaning.

The wealth is moving, especially the ship is transported with wool that is extremely scarce in other areas. The traditional wool workshop areas are now facing the dilemma of shortage of raw materials, so the nobles who do wool products business have their ideas on these fleets.

This time, the fleet led by Gao Wen was locked up by the nobles. When the fleet passed through the rivers in their territory, it had to pay a 20% pass through the cargo tax.

Just as Gao Wen was arguing with the noble butler, Modled opened a box with the treasure bag and took out the Temple of Light from it. The flags of the Temple of Fire and the Temple of Life were handed over to the ship boss to hang them.

Charles gave each temple a commission of five percentage points. No noble dared to stop the temple's cargo ships, and even the usual passing tax was exempted. It was just that Charles adhered to the tradition of low-key and had never used this method to avoid taxes and fees before.

The destination of this trip was a textile factory in the northernmost part of the Prato area, and it was also the first textile factory that the fleet encountered along the way.

This textile factory is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces water. There are many monsters around it. If the factory had not been blocked by tall cement walls, the workers would not have survived under the sharp claws and teeth of the monster.

The lights on the factory cement wall soon appeared in front of Gao Wen, but there were a lot of lights tonight, and other sounds came from time to time.

"Be vigilant and prepare for battle!" Gao Wen's voice resounded over the fleet after being expanded by magic. The ship owners immediately stopped the ship in the middle of the river to stay away from the shore.

However, this section of the river is not wide after the water level drops, and the boat cannot go anywhere.

At this time, the fleet had approached the factory. Gao Wen and the guards on the boat saw a large group of fiery red monkeys gathered outside the factory wall. These red monkeys were throwing explosive balls the size of a table tennis ball towards the wall.

These red monkeys are one meter to one meter two in height. The explosive balls they throw are quite powerful, and at least they can blow up a little dust from the walls built by slag and cement.

But they have no choice but to climb the wall, and the tall and smooth cement walls leave them nowhere to climb.

The members of the factory guard team on the wall were driving these monkeys with bows and arrows and magic. Perhaps the smell of food in the factory attracted the monkeys and they were unwilling to disperse.

"No, it's the hot monkey!" The boss of the ship was startled, "It would be bad if they light the ship!"

The wool on the boat is prone to fire, and it will be very troublesome to burn it.

"I'll go and drive them away." Gao Wen said to the ship boss.

It's just a little troublesome to get from the boat to the shore, especially the riverside is full of mud, which makes it difficult to walk on it.

At this time, Modred and a young man came to Gao Wen. Modred was carrying frost and sadness on his back, holding a chicken leg that was almost gnawed, and the young man was carrying a dark blue sword on his back.

Originally, Artoria didn't want Modreid to use Frost Sorrow so early, because Modreid's mental power could not control this magic weapon. Forced use of the magic on it would be backfired, just like someone would be injured if he lifted a heavy object that was overestimated.

The problem is that Mordred likes this sword so tightly that he almost hugged it to sleep. Artoria had no choice but to partially seal the magic on the sword before using it for her.

"Are we going ashore?" asked Mordred.

Gao Wen said: "If you open the road, we must at least drive away the monkeys."

First, he threw the chewed chicken leg bones into the river, then wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then Modred stood on the side of the ship and raised the frost sadness and slashed it out of the ship.

A white sword light passed by, and an ice and snow passage appeared on the silt on the river surface and the bank in an instant.

Gao Wen said to the young man who was eager to try and Modred, "Modred, wait for you to take the lead and I will cover you on the left, and Lancelot covers you on the right."

When it was cold, the pigs were in the pigpen. Lancelot, who had nothing to do, planned to go to Tanhausen to the south to learn magic in order to make money to learn magic for his sister.

After learning about this on the Dream Platform, Gao Wen asked him to wait in a port city in the east, earning Charles' money and serving Charles' fleet as an escort. This is much better than taking a adventure in the underground maze.

So after Lancelot packed up, he carried the sword he had just obtained, bid farewell to his sister Gnevrey and Linda's magic teacher invited for her, and then ran to see Brother Gaowen and Sister Modred who had only seen in his dreams.

Running on a smooth ice requires skills, but fortunately, all three young people have mastered this technique, otherwise they will fall into the water.
