After leaving Sihai Villa on Tiannan Island, Feng Ziyue boarded the ship and headed north towards Dongming Continent.
It was smooth sailing along the way and we didn't encounter any storms.
However, the vastness of the Endless Sea is very different from the oceans on the Tianwu Continent that Feng Ziyue knew. It can be regarded as endless. After sailing for more than ten days, it is still a vast expanse of blue with no boundaries.
But people at sea are used to it.
This fleet of ships came from the Canghai Continent, carrying various specialties along the way for sale in the Dongming Continent. A one-way trip, even if they didn't stop at all, would take almost half a year, not to mention the need to replenish water from time to time.
, trade goods, the total journey takes nine months.
In addition to delivering goods, purchasing special products, and a trade trip, it took two years.
However, the huge profits are unimaginable.
The unit of making money is not calculated in terms of gold and silver, but in terms of the unit of Tianjing.
A piece of sky crystal is equivalent to one hundred thousand taels of gold!
That's why businessmen from these two continents risked everything, abandoned their wives and children, endured the storms on the sea, endured the suffering of loneliness, and traveled back and forth on the sea in two years to earn this hard-earned money.
However, one trip can often make you rich for the rest of your life. Although it is difficult, there are still many people who struggle to get on the boat.
This fleet of ships is owned by the Xihu Merchant Alliance, the largest trading alliance on the Canghai Continent. This time, they brought a large amount of medicinal herbs that are special products of the Canghai Continent to the Dongming Continent for trade.
Of course, we also brought many individual cargo merchants with us. They are all traveling merchants affiliated with the West Tiger Alliance. They each have their own goods of different types. Anyway, they pay to rent the warehouse, that's all.
Among the individual passengers, there are also many weirdos, and it is not uncommon for them to bring monsters on board.
So Feng Ziyue brought the Yin and Yang Crabs on board, although it caused many people to be surprised, but there was not much commotion.
The Yin-Yang Crab suffered a loss at Sihai Villa and became a little dull. Probably because he was in a bad mood, he lay lazily on the deck and basked in the sun all day long. Everyone went on a long voyage, and they were all well-informed and recognized this mythical beast.
Don't dare to disturb me either.
The ship owners of the Xihu Merchant Alliance were very polite and personally visited Feng Ziyue several times and invited him to banquets.
Feng Ziyue went to several banquets in order to find out more about the outer world. However, these businessmen only focused on trade and had little understanding of the martial arts in Dongming Continent. Feng Ziyue inquired several times but found nothing more.
The news had to be given up.
The captain's surname is Chen, a middle-aged man in his forties, who looks like a smart and capable man.
He is also a martial artist, but his martial arts is mediocre, probably only at the level of a martial artist.
In the Outer World, although martial arts are respected as much as in the Tianwu Continent, and the conditions for cultivation are much better, the majority of people have mediocre martial arts qualifications.
Of course, it is very dangerous for this ship to go out to sea. As a martial artist, he naturally cannot control the scene. It is said that there is also a master of breaking the void in the fleet, and there are many innate masters to protect him.
Feng Ziyue had seen those innate guards at the banquet, but they seemed to be quite wary of Feng Ziyue. Whether he was afraid or wary, his attitude was very cold.
As for the master of Poxu, it is said that he is in seclusion, and Feng Ziyue has not seen him in the past ten days.
Since he couldn't find any new information and had no intention of socializing with the captain, he often hid in the cabin and practiced martial arts non-stop.
With the Split Wind Dragon Fang move, theoretically speaking, the power of his move can be doubled.
It's just that the fusion of the three styles of wind, fire and thunder requires more skills. Feng Ziyue devoted himself to research and needed many trials to get the best results.
About the fifteenth day, Feng Ziyue understood the key and was very happy.
When the two sword techniques are used together, there is only one change, and it is very easy to master. Thunder and lightning turn into fire, and fierce fire turns into thunder. The cycle repeats.
And when the three styles of wind, fire, and thunder are used together, the change becomes a little special.
The wind turns into thunder, the thunder turns into fire, and the fire turns into wind - this is just a change of the move. Then the wind turns into fire, the fire turns into thunder, and the thunder turns into wind again, which is another change.
Six changes, repeated in cycles, form the complete three swords of wind, fire and thunder!
Feng Ziyue was convinced that after mastering the three swords of wind, fire and thunder, even if Yao Huang was in front of him, he would no longer be as helpless as when he fought against him!
It's a pity that there is no good opponent on the sea ship now, so Feng Ziyue can't help but want to try the power of this move.
He practiced his unique skills and felt happy. He rarely walked out of the cabin door and walked on the deck.
The Yin-Yang Crab was still lying there lazily, not very energetic when he arrived.
This time he massacred Sihai Villa. It was said to be the first time he killed someone. He was quite intolerant and has not yet adjusted. He has always boasted that he is eighteen thousand years old, but now it seems that his mental age is at most only
Not much different from a teenager.
Feng Ziyue knew that at such a juncture, it would be useless for others to comfort him.
When he killed someone for the first time, he felt equally uncomfortable all over, with chest tightness and nausea, but since then he has gone through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood a lot, and naturally he is not so entangled.
He smiled slightly and looked at the boundless sea. He saw golden light shining in the sky and sparkling waves. It was truly a wonderful sight.
The ship has another half month to go before it can anchor at a large island in the south of Dongming Continent, replenish water and trade live animals. After that, it will take another two months to reach the destination of this trip, Qiongzhou.
This vast sea is really boundless.
It's like martial arts, so vast. Even though it has reached the pinnacle, if you look out again, you will only feel that the road to martial arts is still endless, and you have not yet reached the pinnacle.
Feng Ziyue was sighing to himself when he heard low voices of arguing and pleading coming from the stern of the ship.
"Manager Peng, please, I can't convert the money into money, and I'm really helpless. I wonder if you can wait until I get to Baoshan Island, wait for me to sell the goods, and then replenish the shipping fee?"
"Mr. Shen, you are also an old man on the ship. Naturally, you also know the rules on the ship. The ship's fare must be paid on the same day. If you cannot pay it, you will pay it with the goods. There is nothing you can do..."
Feng Ziyue turned around and saw a gentle businessman in a white shirt begging for help, while a steward in silk clothes looked troubled and shook his head.
Although Feng Ziyue did not recognize the steward, he knew that the color of the silk clothes was the person responsible for the placement of the cargo on the ship.
On this ship, most of the goods are naturally purchased by the Xihu Merchant Alliance, and some of them are individual tourists like the man named Shen in white. Although he is also a merchant under the Xihu Merchant Alliance, he only pays for it.
, bringing his own goods and heading to a distant continent, hoping to make a fortune.
Such people have to pay the shipping fee on a daily basis along the way, but they should probably pay it before departure. How come it suddenly isn't enough?
Just listen to the businessman in white crying and pleading, "Manager Peng, you also know that I came here with a lot of money. If I convert the goods at the original purchase price, I will lose everything this time. How can I go back to see my family? This time it is really... Natural and man-made disasters, please show mercy..."
Manager Peng sighed and said, "Mr. Shen, I have made it very clear that there is really no mercy in doing things at sea. You are like this today. The captain of the ship was merciful and gave you a reprieve for a few days. Then others came again and called him How can we do this? On this ship, who didn’t lose everything, and who didn’t risk their lives with their heads raised? You want to put your own life and death before the life and death of others, how is that possible? "
The man surnamed Shen was speechless for a moment, but saw Manager Peng shake his head, turn around and leave.
"I can give you one more day, and you can look for your fellow villagers to see if you can temporarily pay some money... For the rest, please forgive me, Peng, for not being able to help!"
He walked away, although there was a look of reluctance on his face, but there was nothing he could do about it.
The businessman surnamed Shen knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Manager Peng! Manager Peng! If I could borrow money, why would I be in this situation? Please! Please give me another fifteen days to allow me to go to Baoshan Island?" "
He cried loudly, but Manager Peng didn't respond and left all the way.
The expression of the businessman surnamed Shen changed, and he knew that his feelings were irreversible.
On a sea ship, the rules are the rules. If he can't hand over the money, he has to exchange the goods. He has worked hard and traveled across the ocean. If he can't make money, he will lose everything. His family has already lost everything in this attempt. , how can he go back and face Jia Xiao?
But what Manager Peng said is also true.
The reason why ocean-going ships can safely travel back and forth between Dongming Continent and Canghai Continent in two years is because of strict rules.
On this ship, there were people who were worse off than him and poorer than him, but the fleet could not make an exception for them.
As long as this happens once, there will be a second and third time. In the end, the rules of this fleet will be broken.
In this way, the ship owner and the entire Xihu Merchant Alliance will suffer the loss!
This ocean-going trade is so difficult that if it weren't for such a large merchant alliance, it would be impossible to do it. If even the Xihu Merchant Alliance loses money and cannot do this ocean-going trade, I am afraid that those who make a living from this trade will not be able to do it. It will all be miserable.
It is impossible for him alone to affect the entire Xihu Merchant Alliance, or even all the brothers who rely on ocean-going ships to make a living.
but he……
The businessman surnamed Shen lamented that if he lost his goods, he would be bankrupt. How would he repay the debt owed by his family?
At this point, it’s better to just die!
The businessman surnamed Shen stood up in despair, staggered to the side of the ship, looked at the faint blue sea, screamed in pain, stood up, and jumped into the sea!
"No! Someone jumped into the sea!"
He had just flipped up, and someone immediately noticed and shouted. Feng Ziyue frowned, tapped his toes, flew over, gently put his arm on the shoulders of the fallen businessman surnamed Shen, and pulled him with a slight lift. Come back!
"An ant still cares about his life, my friend, it's just a matter of money, why bother to seek death?"
