After walking eastward for three days, Mubai and his party entered a river port town within the territory of Adria City.
In order to make traveling easier, Mubai decided to take a water transport ship back to the imperial city.
On the pier outside the town, three huge transport ships about fifty meters long were moored quietly; beside the pier, there were more than a hundred strong men busy carrying various items into the transport ships; nearly six
More than a hundred boat passengers were waiting impatiently for the boat to sail.
The river channel of this dock leads directly to the Rhine River outside the Imperial City, and it can withstand the Imperial City in about four days.
Mu Bai stood in front of the pier, looking at the mirror-like river in front of him with a slightly haggard expression, and was lost in thought for a moment.
On the other side of the river are two green peaks that reach straight into the sky. They are very beautiful and the scenery is beautiful.
Ying stood behind Mu Bai and looked at his back quietly. In the past few days, he had also noticed something was wrong with Mu Bai. He seemed to be very worried.
"The supplies have been transported and the ship is about to sail. Come on board quickly!"
On the deck of the first large ship in front of the pier, a middle-aged man wearing a sky-blue captain's uniform shouted at the top of his lungs to the passengers below.
A wooden ladder was slowly lowered on the deck. Two crew members stood beside the wooden ladder selling tickets to the passengers. Only those who bought the tickets could board the ship.
The other two transport ships were loaded with goods belonging to certain big merchants, and were guarded by specialized mercenary groups.
When Mu Bai heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at the big ship in front of him. There was a three-story building built on the ship, which looked very luxurious. He followed the crowd and slowly walked towards the front of the ship.
"It's fifty gold coins per person in an ordinary ship's seat, one hundred gold coins per person in a medium-class ship's seat, five hundred gold coins per person in a high-class ship's seat, and one thousand gold coins per person in a special-class ship's seat."
The two young crew members spoke repeatedly to the passengers in front of them in their habitual accents.
"Three premium berths."
Mubai walked up to a young sailor on the left, took out a bag of gold coins from his arms, handed it to him and said.
The young crew member weighed the money bag in his hand, nodded, took out three tickets and handed them to Mu Bai and said, "Hurry up."
Mubai then led Ying and Augustine up the wooden ladder to the deck of the ship.
The ship's position was marked with a simple graphic on the ticket. Mu Bai followed the instructions on the graphic and entered the ship's building. He soon found a room for the three of him on the second floor of the ship's building.
