The imperial decree, if you want to go out to sea in Dean Port, generally speaking, those large commercial associations and commercial groups have their own merchant cargo ships, as long as they pay a tax to the government every year as a guarantee.

But if an ordinary small businessman wants to go to sea, he has to rent a boat in the port if he doesn’t have his own boat.

A strong merchant can choose some ships to pack the cargo ships - but the price is not cheap. After all, going to sea is still risky. The waves are ruthless. If a ship is destroyed and the ship is destroyed, the loss will be great. Therefore, although the price of the ship's charter is not high, you have to pay a heavy deposit. If the ship returns safely, the deposit can be refunded.

As for ordinary people, if they want to go to Newhoven to visit relatives and friends on the sea, or go to sea to visit relatives and friends, they must submit documents to the port guards of Dean Port, pay a deposit, and make a document contract before they can let you go to sea.

First of all, we need to verify our identity. After all, we are far away from the mainland at sea to prevent fugitive criminals from running away from sea.

Secondly, going to sea is risky. If you encounter a shipwreck, you will die for a lifetime and make a contract to show that you are voluntarily going to sea, so there will be no need for any victim to pursue it afterwards. Otherwise, if you die when you go to sea by boat and your family will come to the boat to cry, that's not OK.

"I didn't expect that there would be a real-name system when going to sea here..." Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.

It would be fine if I was a black householder, but Lodell's identity must not be seen. Otherwise, it would attract the pursuit of the Liszt family - you should know that a large port city like Dean Port has a branch of the Liszt family's business association!

However, the shop’s guy also mentioned: After all, there are always gray areas everywhere. Although the laws on going to sea at Dean Port are very strict, there are always some "special" existences.

There are also some illegal boatmen in the port, some small business associations' merchant ships, some fishermen's fishing boats, and they are willing to take risks in illegal business. No matter who you are, as long as you are willing to pay, you will be willing to take you out to sea.

However, this kind of business is a black area after all, and there are mixed things, so the safety issues are greatly unsafe.

I heard that the unscrupulous boatmen were just some thieves. After tricking the customer into boarding the boat, they would sit on the ground and forcefully extort the price... If you refuse to pay the money, you would throw you into the sea! If the customer suffers a loss, they would not dare to report to the official. After all, they would go to sea illegally. If they report to the official, they would be punished first.

Even more vicious. If you see the rich property brought by the guests, you will simply start killing people and robbing people at sea, killing people, tie a stone and throw them into the sea, and you will not be able to find the body even if you die!

After hearing this, Chen Daolin felt aroused. He was not afraid of anything bad about being bad. He was a magician at least, and he also had a powerful wolf warrior as his personal entourage. How could he be afraid of something bad about being bad about being bad?

He listened to the story of the guy in the store, deliberately showed his intentional look, pretending to be very interested in these private boats, and even threw out a gold coin.

Chen Daolin guessed very accurately. Many of the hotels in port cities are very colluding with those who make private boats. Seeing that Chen Daolin was interested, the shopkeeper first pretended to say something irrelevant to Chen Daolin. He confirmed that Chen Daolin was talking about a foreign accent, so he quietly patted Chen Daolin's chest and said that he could introduce a reliable private boat.

Chen Daolin smiled faintly and threw out another gold coin. The guy immediately left happily.

Chen Daolin went back to continue eating. Before the meal was finished, the guy ran back. A thick and short man followed him to Chen Daolin's table. The man looked at Chen Daolin, then looked at the three girls sitting at the table. A smile flashed between his eyebrows. He nodded to Chen Daolin, and sat down without waiting for Chen Daolin to greet him.

"Guest, this is a ship owner in the port. I will bring him when I hear you have business, so let's talk slowly." The guy smiled slightly and stepped back.

Chen Daolin raised his eyelids and looked at the man a few times. Although this man was short, he was very strong and had a red and greasy face. He looked like he had been living at sea all year round. There was a faint water vapor on his skin, his clothes were very old, and there was a heavy fishy smell on his clothes.

"This master, are you going to go to sea?" He spoke with a hoarse voice.

Chen Daolin nodded as a pretentious person: "I want to go out to sea."

"Where can you ask?"

“Half Moon Island.”

The man smiled and showed a yellow teeth: "There is very close to the pearl production area of ​​Banyue Island. Is this master going to buy pearls?"

Chen Daolin also smiled and nodded: "Yes." He glanced at the guy: "Do you have a boat?"

"If I don't have a boat, I won't sit here." The man lowered his voice and smiled, then put away his smile and said in a deep voice: "I don't know if it's your first time here, Master, but according to the rules, I have to explain some things clearly first. I don't ask Master, your origin and identity, and you don't need to ask where my boat came from. In short, I have a boat and you have money, so we can get what we need."

Chen Daolin nodded.

The man continued, "My boat is not big. If you do other business, I really don't dare to take it. But if you do the pearl business, that boat will be enough to load. I wonder if you want to charter a boat or share a boat with other customers?"

"I like to be more comfortable." Chen Daolin smiled faintly.

The man's eyes lit up and he smiled, "If you want to charter a boat, there are boatmen and sailors on my boat, and everyone will beg for food. Going to sea is risky. If I encounter a shipwreck, I will lose all my money and have to lose several lives! If I am caught by the garrison palace, I will lose all my money, so..."

"You offer the offer." Chen Daolin shook his head: "I like to go straight."

"A trip to Banyue Island, charter a boat and travel, and the journey is counted as ten days. The boat fee is fifty gold coins! If you want to stay in Banyue Island, we can stop at Banyue Island for you, but we have to collect five more gold coins every day! After all, the people on my boat stay in Banyue Island, and eating, drinking, defecation and urination costs money."

Chen Daolin laughed: "You need five gold coins a day? The people on your boat are expensive to eat and drink!"

You should know that according to the price of the Roland Empire and the purchasing power of gold coins, five gold coins are enough for a medium-sized family to make a profit for a year.

The man frowned and said lightly: "Master, I'm honest. This industry is very complicated. Although my price is not cheap, I abide by the rules! You may not know that there are many people in Dean Port, but when I meet bad people, be careful to give my life! I have been in this industry for many years. Although the price is a little more expensive, I use money to do business and never do bad things. You can go and inquire about it. I, Hook, do business, talk about integrity. Moreover, I travel all year round and are very familiar with Banyue Island. There are many fishing shops selling pearls there. I have friends. You took my boat to do pearl business. At that time, I can also introduce you to some friends who sell beads."

Chen Daolin smiled. He didn't care whether this guy said was true or not. He deliberately bargained at this moment just to make more words.

"Okay, the price can be so fixed. I wonder when you can be ready to go out to sea?"

The man named Hook smiled slightly: "This is a coincidence. I just took over the business today, but the person didn't leave after a while. My boat was ready to go to sea, and even fresh water and food were stocked. You can go to sea with just one word at any time."

Chen Daolin's eyes lit up.

Without hesitation, he immediately stood up and glanced at the man: "What are you waiting for? Let's leave now."

"…Now?" Hook was stunned.

He didn't expect that the guest was so anxious - was it a fugitive?

But he has done this business, even if he is a real fugitive, so how could he care about this?

Hu Ke immediately calmed down, looked at Chen Daolin, and said lightly: "Of course there is no problem... the industry rules, pay half of the money first."

Chen Daolin laughed and took out a bag of gold coins from his arms and shook it: "There are thirty gold coins here, just use it as a deposit, and I will give it to you on the rest of the return trip."

Hook answered, but he didn't open it and put it in his arms. This generous move made Chen Daolin feel a little fond of him.

Chen Daolin and a few girls immediately got up and left the hotel to drive the carriage. Hook rode a horse and led the way in front.

He headed all the way to the port area and arrived at the port area where there were soldiers on duty. Hook obviously had a good idea. He went up to greet the other party, and the soldiers waved to release them.

When he arrived at the port area, Chen Daolin looked at the huge pier, hundreds of boats of all sizes, including some large sailing ships, which were very spectacular. He couldn't help but sigh at first glance.

Damn, this is like "Age of Discovery"!

Looking at the night, the sails are connected to the sails, and there are shadows on the port. Many cargo yards have been built far away on the shore. Even at night, the lights are bright, and there are still people in many cargo yards busy loading cargo, and some sailors on duty are drinking at the port.

The group followed Hook through the docks and finally arrived at a coast, but it was a little far from the area of ​​the sailing boats, and the ships anchored on the shore were much smaller.

A house on the shore was lighted. Chen Daolin followed Hook to the front, and someone came out to pick him up. Hook got off the horse and said to Chen Daolin: "Master, this is my carriage. Your carriage and horses can be stored here first. I guarantee that they will not be lost to you. We will feed you this horse."

"You have a comprehensive service." Chen Daolin couldn't help but smile.

"Just make a living." Hook smiled faintly.

...

Hook's ship is not too big, but it seems to be quite large in Chen Daolin's opinion. The ship is more than ten meters long and there are fishing nets hanging on it.

Before boarding the ship, Hook and Chen Daolin approved the number of people. Chen Daolin brought a servant (Wolf Samurai Chuck), three female family members, and a pet in an iron cage (giant wolf).

This combination made Hook, who had been doing this kind of business for many years, wonder in his heart, how could a businessman go overseas to do business with so many women... The most fatal thing is that he actually brought a wolf.

But whoever is doing money to eliminate disasters? Hook is very lawful and never asks what shouldn't be asked.

In addition to Hook, he also had six sailors on his boat. After moving the iron cage containing the giant wolf into the cargo hold at the bottom of the ship, the group boarded the ship.

Hook's boat was cleaned and cleaned up for Chen Daolin and others to live there, and some even brought clean water and food.

This girl, Lodell, was so unwilling to be in the cabin when she went out to sea for the first time? She pulled Chen Daolin and ran to the deck to watch, shouting to see how the boat went out to sea.

Hook seemed to have seen this kind of scene, and he ignored them and called his subordinates to start busy, regaining the fishing nets and driving the sails...

Chen Daolin pulled Lodel and stood on the side of the boat as they were busy. Suddenly he heard Hook scolding behind him, as if he was teaching his men.

Chen Daolin didn't care at first, but only heard Hook's voice intermittently:

"Not good at it...follow the rules...bastard boy..."

After hearing a few words, Chen Daolin wanted to walk away, but after taking one step, he suddenly heard another voice coming. He moved his heart and stopped.

Sure enough, I saw Hook coming out from behind, and behind him, a sneaky young man followed behind with a embarrassed expression on his face.

Chen Daolin saw it and Chen Daolin couldn't help but smile.

It was the guy who used the Black Pearl to cheat Lodell's money!

Lodell also saw this man. The girl immediately opened her mouth and was about to shout, but Chen Daolin grabbed her and pulled her behind her. He quickly took a few steps back and got into the cabin.

Outside the cabin, Hook and the man walked by. Hook said angrily: "You kid are just greedy for small gains! You follow me to go to sea and make some money well. Although it is hard, you are comfortable! Don't go to the docks all day long to get together with those little scammers! Let's just rely on the sea to eat. Doing those cheating things will sooner or later get into trouble!"

The two of them walked quickly through the cabin, and Chen Daolin let go of the hand covering Lodell's mouth.

"What are you doing?" Lodell said annoyed: "That person is..."

"I know." Chen Daolin said lightly.

"Then why are you pulling me! I..."

Chen Daolin sighed and glanced at the girl: "Miss, don't you know that we are on someone's boat now."

"Then... what are you afraid of!" Lodell gritted his teeth and said, "You are a magician! Can't you deal with a few fishermen?"

Chen Daolin spread his hands: "I'm not afraid of fighting and killing... It's simple to beat them, but what if I offend them? Is it good to tear them apart? Miss, let me ask you a question, do you know how to sail? Do you know how to sail?"
