Chapter 569 Namikaze Journey III

When Xiu Yin said the news was good, it meant it was really good news. At least it was very good news for him.

Not long after Trogg came to the throne, he began to build new palaces and plunder the finances under his rule and gathered them in Xinghui City. Xiuyin could only keep a smile on his face.

But - the only person Xiu Yin was worried about was Tifa.

"The lord doesn't seem to be worried about Wang Cheng's actions?" Lolita's voice interrupted Xiu Yin's thoughts.

"hey-hey……"

Xiu Yin came back to his senses. He knew what Lolita wanted to ask him, but he just smiled slightly and said, "Miss Lolita, what you saw is probably what you want to know."

Lolita also smiled back at Xiu Yin. Of course she understood what Xiu Yin meant, and her admiration for Xiu Yin became even stronger...

…

To go to the Namikaze Empire through the border, you have to pass through the northeastern border with the Namikaze Empire in the former Unrai Town Dominion.

The flow of the Tianshui River separated the former Unlai Town Autonomous Dominion from the Namikaze Empire. The sufficient amount of river water also made the former Unlai Town Autonomous Dominion the richest among the four major territories of the Starry Kingdom.

But when Xiuyin's carriage passed through many towns along the way, including the former capital of the Unlai Town Autonomous Territory, Xiuyin and the others could not see any prosperity in the past. On the contrary, what came into Xiuyin's eyes was the same coldness as this winter. And bleak.

The reason may be related to the fact that the Longhui Territory attracted a large number of people from the Star Glory Kingdom to migrate on a large scale, but such a depression should never occur in such a fertile land.

We arrived at a ferry crossing of the Tianshui River, also known as Xingshui Town, with a population of more than 3,000. Counting the mobile vendors, the population was as many as 5,000.

A main road runs through the entire town. There are various shops on both sides of the town. At the end of the main road is the ferry of Star Water Town, where there are boats to the Namikaze Empire.

The five people stayed in Xingshui Town for a night, and they were going to the Namikaze Empire the next day. Everyone needed to be well prepared. After all, after crossing the Tianshui River, on the other side was the Namikaze Empire, one of the powerful Nanaiyo families.

Standing at the ferry, the rolling waves of the Tianshui River have a magnificence different from that of the sea.

The Tianshui River flows from the west-north to the east-south of the Shenmin Continent and flows into the sea. In the south-central part of the continent, there are dozens of tributaries nourishing the land in the central and southern parts of the continent.

Xiu Yin saw the sea of ​​this world when he was in Luolan, and now here, Xiu Yin saw the river of this world again.

The scenery was shocking enough, but Xiuyin didn't have much thought about them. Xiuyin just thought about what the powerful Qiyao family would look like after crossing the river...

"No boats today!"

"Let's leave now. Those who want to take the boat will come tomorrow!"

When the five of them arrived near the river dock, these were the words they heard most. In short, there was no boat to the Namikaze Empire on the other side of the Tianshui River.

But as long as you are not blind, you can clearly see that there are several large ships here at the dock, and the small boats are filling the gaps between the large ships.

Why is there no such thing as a ship?

Xiu Yin frowned and refused to let him sit on the boat. The reason...

"Lord, it seems that someone has monopolized the shipping here." Lolita's words were exactly what Xiu Yin thought.

"Then what should we do?" Hans saw that he could not cross the river and that this place was monopolized. Did he really have to wait one more day?

After looking around, Charlotte whispered to the four people, "Looking at the crowd gathered on the pier, it is obvious that it is not that we cannot cross the river today, but that we have been unable to cross the river for several days!"

Charlotte's analysis is not unreasonable. Just looking at the crowd on the pier and the sad expressions on their faces, one can guess that the time they stay here is definitely not a day or two.

There were goods piled up everywhere at the dock, and traders were unable to go to the Namikaze Empire. A large number of them were stranded here. Some traders even knelt on the ground and begged the guards guarding the bridge to let them cross the river.

"My lord, please let me go, otherwise all the goods will be rotten, and all my belongings will be weighed on this!" The merchant knelt down in front of the guard with tears on his face and begged.

"Go away, go away!"

The guard kicked the vendor far away with a look of disgust on his face. Looking at this kick, you could tell that the guard had some soul power.

But the vendor was not so lucky. He coughed twice and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Hans frowned, clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but was held back by Charlotte.

Charlotte shook her head slightly at Hans.

"This is not the wyrmprint." Lolita glanced at Hans.

Hans then unclenched his fist. He originally wanted to show off in front of the beautiful woman, but Lolita was right. He would only bring trouble to Xiu Yin if he was so rash.

But there was still no boat ride. After seeing the guard's behavior, the five people's faces became a little depressed.

This place belongs to the Unlai Town Province and is under the direct jurisdiction of King Trogg. Although Xiuyin has been elevated to the title of Marquis and the lord of a large territory, Xiuyin's rights have no effect at all on this royal family's territory...

Do we really want to spend a whole day here?

When they were at a loss, a voice sounded from one side of the five people.

"Hey, everyone, do you want to cross the river?" A rough voice reached Xiu Yin's ears.

When Xiu Yin looked for a reputation, he saw a man with a beard and wearing the kingdom's standard armor. He seemed to be a guard of the town.

"What?" The person who spoke was Charlotte. Xiuyin was a lord. Facing a guard, there was no need for Lord Xiuyin to reply to his words.

"I'm asking you, do you want to cross the river?!" The guard's tone was very rude, or he didn't take them seriously at all.

"So what if you want to?!" Charlotte's tone was also very hard, and she didn't have the slightest attitude of having to find someone to help her if she wanted to cross the river.

However, the bearded guard was not angry. He had already seen many people like Charlotte. Among the traders stranded here, there were also many wealthy people who had the same tone as him at the beginning. , Hehe, what's the result?

The last thing you have to do is ask him to come, because in the entire Star Kingdom, only the ferry here is the closest to the Namikaze Empire!

If you want to go to the Namikaze Empire, you have to come and ask me!

This is the confidence of the bearded guard.

"One hundred gold coins per person, and we can leave tomorrow!" the guard said.

"What, why don't you go and grab it!"

Before Charlotte could say anything, Hans shouted first.

One hundred gold coins. As the captain of Hans's Guards, his monthly salary was only ten gold coins. This was due to Xiu Yin's great care for Hans.

Calculated in this way, it would cost him a year's salary to make a living! ?
