The next day, John, who had finished his night of practice, took seven people from Hutches to ride in a luxurious carriage purchased by Hutches, and one person drove and one person was in the car, and five others rode about horses.
The guards arrived at the inland pier along the Ganges River.
The ships on the river are still busy. As the mother of Indians, during the British rule, the scale of utilization of this river was naturally far greater than that of Indians.
This period has entered the 20th century. Except for local fishermen, wooden boats with basically no sails or manpower are sailing, and those who pass by are steam-powered or diesel-engine iron-shelled ships.
Hutchis hired a yacht in a French-run boat ride, and the captain warmly greeted the guests on the dock.
"Mr. Hutchs, this is our honorable guest. All the staff of the female role are ready to provide you with the best service..."
It’s not that the French are low-stanced, but for this boat shop, customers like Hutchis who can book a boat with a large amount of money are definitely high-quality customers. Moreover, if the service of such a noble guest is good, they may bring them in the future.
Get more opportunities and benefits. Money leads the way, and even the proud Gaul chicken must lower its head.
Not to mention that the French are already a republic, why do we still have to look up to the nobles? As Europe with the strongest aristocratic atmosphere, traditions over the past thousand years are difficult to abandon in a short period of time, and although the French Republic has experienced many times in the past few hundred years.
During the coup, the strength of the nobles was still preserved. Now all parties have the elements of nobles, so they naturally spontaneously safeguard the interests of the nobles.
The yacht Virgo is said to be a small ship, which is compared with transport ships and warships. Because the design did not consider cargo transportation or weapon defense at the beginning, the cabin of this yacht was more about comfort and spaciousness.
It is said to be small, but in fact, in terms of captain, the yacht Virgo is not smaller than that of ordinary medium-sized inland transport ships.
John and his group were loaded onto the ship with their carriages, but the yacht still didn't feel crowded. I thought that the design was originally designed to take care of the land car that would carry the owner, such as cars or carriages, to facilitate seamless connection.
The owner feels the comfort of traveling.
Don’t think this is a design that only the rich people would have. Since the late 19th century, steam-powered yachts have become big toys for royal families and nobles of various countries. The royal children once held the World Yacht Competition.
Compete for the first place with high speeds that surpassed many warships at that time.
Therefore, the luxury of the upper class is beyond your imagination. Moreover, this kind of game of fighting for wealth is not only for the sake of face, but actually has a great increase in the development of ship power in Western countries.
The Virgin is such a product, but it belonged to a yacht ten years ago and used the most advanced steam turbine power at that time. It was first-class at that time. After ten years, with the rapid development of fuel power,
It has gradually replaced the status of steam power in small and medium-sized ships, and the somewhat outdated equipment of Virgo is naturally eliminated by the high-end circle. Since the original owner of the yacht was the shareholder of the yacht, the yacht was placed in the yacht.
It was transported to the branch of Oriental and planned to use the waste.
Although the most cutting-edge yacht circle is already a backward product, the romance girl is still a trend-leading high-tech in the Indian subcontinent.
Some wealthy Indian royal families and upper-class families will also buy and rent such yachts to show their wealth.
However, the tycoons whose territory is located on the seaside and riverside are not the majority. In addition, the girl is one of the most expensive private yachts in India, so apart from being rented twice, they have been in the past two years.
They are all idle, and this kind of luxury yacht is only a considerable expense for annual maintenance. This time it can be rented by a noble customer, which is definitely a good thing for this boat shop.
As a man who likes toys such as cars, weapons, etc., John was very interested in this steam-powered yacht that he had never seen in his previous life. With the captain's accompanying him, he visited various locations such as the power cabin, and then made a decision in his heart.
"What?"
When the captain heard what Hutchis, who was acting as the butler, said that he wanted to buy the yacht, he couldn't help but be surprised and delighted.
"That's right, although the power of this female squad is a bit old compared to that in Europe, India is not Europe. As my young master's car in India during this period, it is not considered a shame that the young master's noble identity."
The captain was happy and tried his best to keep smiling and continued to ask:
"So what needs your master have? Mr. Hutchs can tell us in detail."
...
The biggest reason why I bought this yacht in the high-end yacht circle is that it is some of the eliminated rosters. In addition to John's favorite, the biggest factor is that this yacht is powered by steam, and it is more advanced than the current power of the main world.
steam turbine.
Although it is not an advanced steam turbine assembled by large ships or power generation power in later generations, it is a speed-level steam turbine invented in the early 20th century, it is still more excellent than the main world to be close to the "three-expansion reciprocating steam engine", so
The power facilities of the Virgin Girl are several generations ahead of those in the main world.
Although John does not intend to promote the scientific development of the main world, it is undoubtedly OK to get an advanced ship for himself. In the future, he also plans to convert the Virgin into an alchemy magic ship and install new power, defense and weapons.
Facilities to pursue higher performance and safety.
So after Hutchis proposed a price that the captain, who was the deputy manager of the Indian branch of the ship, could not refuse but was reasonable, John took the ship's own ship and crossed the west at a high speed of 26 knots.
In the territory of Bangladesh, we come to Allah Abad, located in the middle reaches of the Ganges.
When he arrived in Allah Abad, because the river channel in the upper reaches began to become complicated and narrow, it was no longer suitable for continuing the boat. So John simply ordered Hutchis to pay the captain's fee, and then asked the crew to return on other ships to perform.
The hidden mist technique releases a thick fog covering a hundred steps in diameter, and takes the opportunity to directly card the entire yacht and add it to your main card space.
This kind of dead object does not involve extraordinary power. Whether it is card-making or redeemable through the will of the main world after returning, the consumption is far lower than that of redeeming the living object or card-making the living object.
Otherwise, with John's current power of fate, he would not be able to collect this yacht that was dozens of meters long.
When he arrived at Allah Abad, John looked at the map and ordered Hutchs:
"Next, we won't stop here in India, and we will ride on Nepal directly and rush to Kathmandu with all our might."
"Yes, sir!"
Hutchis and the others had no complaints, they were just rushing to travel. In their past adventures, they had experienced difficult areas like tropical rainforests. In comparison, riding a horse is undoubtedly a comfortable environment.
Although the basic transportation facilities in India are very backward and there are no roads in many places, a group of people riding horses is more convenient and fast than riding on a boat or a carriage.
When you really encounter a difficult area, John can also create convenient conditions through spells, so in less than a day, he has arrived in Nepal, less than dozens of miles away from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal.
From the place where they disembarked in the Ganges section of Allah Abad to the Nepal border, it is actually only about 200 kilometers. Because of Nepal's narrow land terrain, the border line here is not far from Kathmandu, the central location of Nepal.
