Chapter 638 Port Weinke
The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly, and countless seagulls were flying in the sea and sky. Alice stood on the side of the ship and looked from a distance: "Master, come quickly, we can see the coast."
"I saw it."
Alice ran back to the cabin to get it He opened the sea chart and said, "Is this Weyink?"
"Yes." Bing Zhixie pointed to the front and said, "Look, you can already see the city."
< br>
Alice looked again: "Wow, it's a big city. It's different from the cities in the southern continent I imagined."
Bingzhixie said: "Weink is located between the main continent and the eastern continent. The north shore of the junction is also a harbor, whether it is ships coming from the north. Almost all people traveling between the two continents pass through Weiink. The economy of such a distribution center will be very active. It is normal for such a large seaport city to exist."
Alice said in surprise: "Master. How come you know everything, even the economy? If you become a local administrator, you will definitely be very great. Would Alice recommend you to be an official in Moyue in the future? Hahaha..."
A cold voice said from behind: "This is not a big deal. The economy has a large population flow. It will naturally become active. This is something that any local official understands."
Alice said: "Shurlington, don't you have to be so stingy? A serving of caviar still holds a grudge in your heart. No girl will like a stingy man.”
Hurlington argued: "I don't hold a grudge, I'm just a little unhappy."
Alice laughed.
The airship slowly flew closer to the mainland, Bingzhixie said: "Park the airship in the suburbs."
"Hey, why? Don't you stop going to the city? So Big cities should have special places to park hot air balloons and airships," Alice said.
Bing Zhixie said: "It would be too eye-catching to drive the airship in directly. There is a large flow of people in this place, and there are all kinds of people. Being too eye-catching will cause trouble."
< br>
Hurlington snorted and murmured in a low voice: "It's not like you have an airship alone. Why would you cause trouble?"
Bing Zhixie pretended not to hear and returned to the cabin to prepare. Good to get off the boat.
Flying over the suburbs, it turned out that there was also a place to park airships outside the city. There were already five or six airships parked in the place, as well as dozens of large and small hot air balloons. Alice drove the airship slowly to the parking lot, and soon staff members gathered around, saying "Welcome to Weyink" and helping to secure the airship.
"The service attitude is very good." Hullington jumped off the airship.
"We dare not neglect distinguished guests like you." The staff smiled and took out a notebook and said: "Please register here."
Hullington took the record book, registered it, and handed it back to the staff.
Alice asked: "Isn't it unsafe for you to arrange the parking place in the suburbs? What if something is lost?"
The staff said: "Don't worry, This kind of problem will never happen. We still hope that you will come again next time. If customers keep losing things, our business will still be good. How to do it?"
Alice thought for a while and said: "That makes sense. How much is the parking fee?"
The staff looked at the Harmony and asked. : "For an airship of this size, our parking fee here is 20 gold coins per day, and you can also charge by the hour."
"So expensive!" It was Hullington who spoke.
The staff smiled and said: "Of course it is very expensive for ordinary people, but for distinguished guests like you, it is nothing. And our parking lot is in the suburbs. If you park the airship in the city, the price will be at least It's 3-5 gold coins more, but you don't need a horse. Pay the fee here. Here, here is your parking permit.”
After leaving the parking lot, Alice and the others were about one kilometer away. From the small road out of the parking lot to the main road leading in and out of the city, a group of people also walked on the road.
There were about a dozen people in this group, both men and women, aged around eighteen or nineteen to early thirties. Some of them were humming songs; some were talking and laughing; Some were holding magic crystal coins and throwing them up and catching them from time to time. They looked around unsteadily as they walked. When they saw beautiful women passing by, they would whistle and tease them, causing passers-by to avoid them.
"Who are these people?" Alice asked.
Hurlington said: "They look like local gangsters. Such people idle around all day long, either fighting or robbing and extorting. They are not good things."
Alice has always been jealous of evil. He clenched his fists and said, "Should we teach them a lesson?"
Bingzhixie pulled Alice and said, "Don't cause trouble. This kind of people are under the control of the local government, and we can't provoke them." When the group passed by Bingzhixie and Alice, one by one Heng Heng looked at them with an expression of ridicule and contempt, as if they were the biggest in the world.
Alice frowned and whispered: "What do you mean?"
Apparently someone among the hooligans heard Alice's dissatisfied words, took a mouthful of thick phlegm and spit it on Alice's face. However, the thick phlegm was not accurate and spit it on Bing Zhixie, and then the group of people groaned. Hahaha jeers.
Alice was furious at that time and wanted to fight, but was held back by Bing Zhixie.
One of the gangsters said: "Stop bullying the children, we are not here to scare the children this time."
"Yes, I know, boss. Haha, hehehehe... "The spitting man was still looking at Bing Zhixie and the others and kept laughing.
"Master, why are you afraid of them!" Alice gathered a water ball, washed the yellow, sticky and disgusting phlegm on Bing Zhixie's body, and wiped it clean with paper towels.
Bing Zhixie said: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that if we really fight, it will be very troublesome if it turns into a public security incident. Anyway, it's just a mouthful of phlegm, and you won't lose a piece of flesh if you spit it on your body."
Alice is still unhappy. , picked up a stone and threw it at the back of the gangster. It's just that the gangsters have gone far away, so they can only express their anger symbolically.
“These guys!” Hullington also hated these gangsters. When he traveled alone, he was often troubled by these people: “If it is further away and more remote, I must teach you a lesson. They.”
Bing Zhixie. Said: "Don't be disappointed for these people, let's enter the city quickly."
Weinkhamn is a famous big city in the southern part of the mainland. Because of its special geographical location and environment, it has become An important hub connecting the east and west continents and maritime passages.
Weyink's permanent population is not particularly large, less than 3 million people, but the number of business travelers traveling from north to south is several times that of the local population. Standing on the street, you can see bustling crowds everywhere. Where there are dense crowds, people are almost stepping on people's heels. The buildings here are also very distinctive. They are different from the noble and elegant atmosphere in the north of the mainland, and they are also different from the majesty and grandeur in the west of the mainland. Most of the buildings here are small tower-style buildings, and many of the buildings are half-paved. Round vaults, those are churches for worship. The colors of the houses here are almost all made of earthy yellow wall bricks. They have not been specially processed and painted, maintaining the simplest and most unpretentious atmosphere.
There are palm trees growing between the houses, tall spiers, and vendors are selling under every stone tile awning. They sell weapons, fruits, leather goods, jewelry, you name it, here Almost everything you need is available and very cheap to buy. Alice took a deep breath of the breath of this land and listened to the hustle and bustle here. Her heart was extremely excited and difficult to calm down, because she finally left the familiar northern land and arrived in a new one. The world, a world that I have never understood.
Alice is not the only one who is excited. Hullington has never been here either, and his heart is equally excited. With the knowledge in the book and countless curiosity, he looks at this strange city and this strange city. A strange land.
Alice shouted happily and said: "What should we do first?"
Hughington said: "Of course we go to eat first, so that we can not only taste There are special delicacies here, and you can also ask the waiter about the customs and tourist attractions here to arrange the next program.”
"Okay, let's go to the food store!!" Alice shouted, striding forward.
“Wait a minute.” Bing Zhixie stopped her: “We are not here to play, we are just passing by. Asking what needs to be asked, I’m afraid it will only take one or two to finish what needs to be done. How much time do you have left to play in such a short time? "
"Ah!" Most of Alice's happiness was gone. She held Bing Zhixie's hand and kept shaking it and begged: "Don't be like this, Master, this is so disappointing. , finally came to such a fun place, let I'll just play for a while."
Hughington said sarcastically: "Humph, some people never care about what others think. They only think about doing their own things and doing things that are useful to them. Do whatever is of no use to you I don't care. This kind of person is extremely selfish and only cares about himself and others." "Shut up." Alice waved her hand and said, "Why are you talking about my master? About my master?”
Hurlington retreated and hid: "Hey, I'm helping you."
Alice said: "You can't even help me, you just can't call me master."
" Cut!”
Bing Zhixie was silent for a while, Said: "I haven't finished speaking yet. So we should do things separately. After dinner, you can go play and leave the matter to me."
Alice said: "Master, don't you Come with us..."
"That's it, let's go." Bing Zhixie interrupted Alice and walked towards the street first...
