People came and went at the dock. There were many large boxes filled with goods that needed to be moved down by the laborers at the dock.
Just the business of "transporting" required tens of thousands of people, which showed how prosperous the trade in Deep Sea City was.
" Are you going out to sea?" Lu Changsheng asked as he looked at the ships.
"Yes, we’re going back to Tuo Country."
Lu Changsheng had learned a lot about these foreign merchants. They came from many countries.
Tuo Kingdom was one of them. It was said to be very far away, far more than ten thousand miles away. Even if they sailed on the sea, it might take one or two years to return to Tuo Kingdom.
It would take too long for Lu Changsheng to go to Tuo Kingdom.
Lu Changsheng asked more questions, but most of the foreign merchants returned to their own countries, which were far away.
The return trip would take at least one or two years, or even three or four years.
As for renting a large ship from a foreign merchant, that was even more of a joke. A large ship needed a lot of manpower and material resources to go out to sea. It was not something that could be done with just a few thousand taels of silver.
"Quick, quick, move the goods to the ship. We’re leaving."
"This trip to Fire Dragon Island will take at least ten days to half a month."
" Yeah, Fire Dragon Island is currently in the season for spices to ripen. If we go to Fire Dragon Island and buy some spices, we can earn a lot of money."
The crew members on the dock were discussing.
Among these crew members, there were foreign merchants and people from Deep Sea City.
Lu Changsheng knew about Fire Dragon Island. It was a big island not far from Deep Sea City.
Although it was called a big island, it was actually very large. There was also a Fire Dragon Country on it, which was famous for producing spices.
Ten days to half a month, which was quite suitable for Lu Changsheng.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng walked straight to the ship, but was stopped by someone.
"I want to board the ship and follow you to Fire Dragon Country before returning to Deep Sea City."
Two foreign merchants stopped Lu Changsheng.
They looked at Lu Changsheng from head to toe. Then, they shook their heads and said," No. This is a ship of our Ocean Chamber of Commerce. No one is allowed to board."
"I can give you money."
Lu Changsheng took out a banknote worth 100 taels of silver.
The two of them looked at each other and were a little tempted.
A hundred taels of silver was not a small amount.
"No, irrelevant people can’t board the ship."
At this moment, a voice with a crooked accent came from behind Lu Changsheng.
Behind Lu Changsheng, a merchant and a cold-looking woman in black boarded the ship.
"Young Master Longsha."
The two foreign merchants hurriedly bowed.
"Did you hear that?" Lonza said coldly. Unauthorized people are not allowed to board the ship."
"Beautiful Miss Yun, please board the ship." Google seaʀᴄh NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt
Longsha turned to look at the woman in black and immediately put on a smile.
The two foreign merchants shook their heads bitterly." You saw it. Master Lonza doesn’t allow outsiders to board the ship. Even if we have money, we can’t let you board."
Lu Changsheng glanced at Longsha and the woman in black, then turned around.
Even without this ship, he believed that there would be other ships that would go to Fire Dragon Island.
However, just as he turned around and was about to leave, he saw a familiar foreign merchant woman.
Sophie was overjoyed. The benefactor she had been talking about the entire night had finally appeared again.
Naturally, Lu Changsheng recognized this woman.
" You can board the ship?" Lu Changsheng asked as he looked at the woman. She seemed to be walking toward the ship.
"Board the ship? That’s right, this is the merchant ship of the Far Ocean Chamber of Commerce. I’m preparing to go to the Fire Dragon Country to take a look."
"I want to board the ship, but that Long Sha stopped me. Can you take me on board?"
"Benefactor, if you want to board the ship, of course you can. That idiot, Longsha, almost offended my benefactor. Don’t worry, Longsha is my cousin, but I’m the daughter of the president of the Yuanyang Chamber of Commerce. Whether you can board the ship or not, Longsha doesn’t have the final say!"
Sophie patted her chest confidently.
Lu Changsheng didn’t say anything.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng followed the woman onto the boat. The two foreign merchants didn’t dare to stop him.
After boarding the ship, Lu Changsheng found out that the woman he saved last night was the daughter of the president of the Yuanyang Chamber of Commerce. She controlled dozens of ships and had a lot of power in the business.
Sophie somehow managed to make Longsha apologize to Lu Changsheng.
Soon, the ship set off, slowly leaving the dock and sailing towards the boundless sea.
Lu Changsheng stood on the deck and looked at the boundless ocean.
This was his first time boarding a ship and coming to the sea.
This ship was originally huge, but compared to the vast ocean, it was like a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning.
Lu Changsheng looked at the sea quietly. There were no waves yet, so he didn’t have time to comprehend the intent realm.
However, they were still far away from Fire Dragon Island, and it was only a matter of time before they ran into a storm. Lu Changsheng wasn’t in a hurry.
At this moment, the woman in black who followed Long Sha also came to the deck.
She glanced at Lu Changsheng and said," You offended Longsha. He’s very vengeful. You have to be careful."
"You’re not from Longsha?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the woman in black with surprise.
Previously, it was Longsha who had personally brought the woman in black onto the ship. But now, it seemed that the woman in black was not on the same side as Longsha.
