The sailboat has docked.

Without looking back, Catherine jumped down and strode towards the town.

Daines glanced back at Joey a few times, hoping to hear Joey change his mind, but he didn't hear Joey change his mind until Joey disappeared from his sight.

"Joey, are you really just going to let that girl go like that?"

The bearded man helped Joey drag the sailboat out of the sea and onto the shore. Although they had reached land, Joey had no intention of abandoning the sailboat.

"Otherwise what?"

Joey and the bearded man struggled to drag the sailboat ashore.

"But you haven't slept with her yet, that's not like you!"

The bearded man sat on the beach, leaning against the hull of the boat. He had worked too hard and was now a little tired, needing to rest for a while.

"Hey, you with the big beard, how can you speak so rudely?"

Joey gave the bearded man a disdainful look. He was a scholar, and he couldn't let such vulgar words come out of his mouth.

"But what you say is true. This is not my style, especially letting such a beautiful woman leave!"

"But sleeping is a matter for two people, it's not like I can just decide to sleep with someone else and they're happy to!"

"Furthermore, this Lady Catherine is no ordinary person; this matter requires careful consideration!"

Joey then patted the edge of the boat with a cheerful smile and sat down against the hull. After drifting at sea for so many days, he felt like all the bones in his body were about to fall apart.

"Where are we going later?"

The bearded man had no plan; he was just used to following Joey. Besides, now that he had left his homeland and come to this new continent, he had no idea what to do.

"Let's store this sailboat first, then we'll go shopping, eat and drink our fill, and then find a girl to sleep with. After all, we're practically rich now!"

The reason I say I'm only half rich is that I still need to leave myself half the space and motivation to continue making money.

Gold Rush Town has developed rapidly in recent years, and people from all walks of life are here. Before he officially starts panning for gold, Joey should enjoy himself to the fullest. He can't let this time travel leave any regrets.

"The girl is nice, but she's too much trouble. Between a beautiful woman and fine wine, I still prefer fine wine!"

Although the bearded man also enjoys looking at beautiful women with big butts, the charm of these human women doesn't quite reach his level. He seems to still prefer dwarf girls, so in places with many humans, he still puts all his passion into fine wine.

"You big bearded man, are you still a virgin at this point?"

"You haven't experienced the goodness of women, have you? I'm afraid that once you have, you'll be begging for more every day!"

After saying that, Joey suddenly reached out, grabbed some sand from the beach, and threw it forcefully onto the inside of the bearded man's exposed thighs.

The bearded man cried out in pain, clutching his groin with his left hand, and stood up as he charged at Joey, ready to retaliate.

Joey was prepared; before he even got up, he jumped off the beach and ran toward a small house near the harbor.

After greeting the port staff in charge of looking after the ships and paying a management fee of 2 silver coins, Joey and the bearded man headed towards the town center.

"Look, take a look! All kinds of gold panning tools are available!"

"Freshly baked meat buns, 10 copper coins each, you won't regret it!"

"Dear traveler, would you like to stay at a hotel?"

...

The streets were packed with people, filling the originally spacious passageways to capacity.

Some people were dressed fairly cleanly, probably just arrived in the gold mining town to try their luck; others had soaked clothes with a lot of river weeds on them, looking like they had just returned from panning for gold in the river.

Joey and the bearded man were different. Although their clothes were filthy, they were genuinely newcomers. However, this had one advantage: the stench emanating from them made way for them.

"Joey, I want a big meat bun!"

Hearing the vendor's cries, the bearded man's stomach was already rumbling loudly.

"How about we eat something else? It's not that I'm stingy, but I'm afraid that vendor's big meat buns will disappoint you!"

Joey glanced at the vendor hawking his large meat buns. Apart from a few newcomers occasionally paying because of his promotion, none of the seasoned veterans who had been there for a long time bought any of the vendor's meat buns.

As a newcomer to the workplace, you must learn from these seasoned veterans in certain aspects. For example, when looking for a place to eat downstairs from the company, you must stick close to them. They know exactly where the good food is and where there are cost-effective meals. Otherwise, if you, as a newcomer, go looking for food on your own, you will most likely end up not only eating well but also not getting enough to eat.

The bearded man looked somewhat aggrieved, but he still habitually listened to Joey's words. He glanced at the vendor's stall again before turning his head away.

"Alright, I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"

Seeing the bearded man's reluctant expression, Joey patted him on the shoulder and led him to the vendor selling large meat buns.

The bearded man followed along eagerly, his face beaming with joy.

"Boss, a big meat bun!"

After Joey finished speaking, he tossed a silver coin to the vendor.

"Two handsome gentlemen, one large meat bun isn't enough for both of you, and I don't have enough change to give you. Why don't you buy a few more?"

The vendor's words were like honey, and coupled with his professional fake smile, he could indeed fool quite a few people.
