Time goes back to many years ago...
Because I had experience last time, I wasn’t so overwhelmed this time. I just didn’t quite understand the current situation.
Lucille beside him was holding his hand and looking at him with dissatisfaction. Now she was a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. Although she was still a minor in Sean's eyes, she was old enough to get married in this world.
Her figure has become slightly more prominent, and she is much taller than the little loli she was before. Now it is almost up to her chest.
Her face was not as made up as it was later, but Wang Shuo could still see that she had put on a little bit of foundation... Her already fair skin looked even more radiant.
"Teacher!" he said again dissatisfiedly.
"Oh, I was just thinking about something. I didn't notice...did you say anything to me?"
A brief thought made Wang Shuo understand his current situation. Judging from Lucille's age, if the last time he found her was when she was four or five years old, then ten years have passed now. The little girl has grown into a young woman, and now the two of them are on the sea.
I just don't know where the sea is.
The place where the two were before should be the southern continent, and it is not clear whether they are now in the southern sea or the northern sea.
"Hmph, I called you mentor for so long, but you ignored me!" Lucille still looked unhappy.
If the two of them have lived together for ten years now, they would be considered family members. The little girl's attitude towards him might not be as respectful as before, and she might start to act like a rogue in front of him.
"Sorry, I was distracted. Can you say it again?" Sean said with a smile.
Seeing Sean's innocent expression, Lucille seemed helpless...
After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke.
"I'm asking, what kind of place is Mersin? How long will it take us to get there now?" he asked Sean again.
Mersin...
Is it Mersin, the southernmost country in the Zambutar region?
It seems that the two of them are going to the north this time. They have finally returned after traveling for so many years.
Of course Sean remembered the country of Mersin... He had often heard the name of the other country since he was in the small town, and when he was the Earl of Oro City, he had many trade exchanges with this country. During the war, he even took advantage of the convenience of the other maritime country to send some seafood and sell grain at a high price.
I have communicated with them many times, but I have never actually been to this country.
"If we go to Mersin from the south, it will take about ten days of sailing!" After experiencing the time travel last time, Sean began to become more particular about his speech.
Don't make the conversation too perfect, and don't make it so that people misunderstand or don't understand.
Just tell me the total itinerary, and Lucille will slowly calculate it, after all, she was born at sea!
"We've been walking for seven days, so there are still four or five days left."
It's been so long! Sean sighed in his heart.
I've returned to the past, but I don't know what happened in those gaps in time. In other words, I don't know the story of the past ten years. Sometimes it's hard to talk about it... But if I think about it, if all the memories of the past ten years are suppressed in my head again, I'll probably have to lie down for a few more days.
It doesn’t matter if I don’t know, my cool style can be preserved!
"If everything goes well, it will be faster. I hope it won't rain..."
Look at the weather, it’s a clear blue sky.
Although Sean would encounter some problems every time he sailed on the sea, his luck wouldn't be so bad every time.
Boatmen and merchants travel the seas year-round. If the weather or environment is bad, they won't go out to sea. How could they be safe for such a long time and then encounter danger while on board a ship? It doesn't make sense.
So Sean felt that it had always been smooth sailing...
"There are still a few days left. We can go visit this northern country then. I have never been to Mersin." Lucille said excitedly.
Maybe she won’t want to run around anymore in a dozen years!
Speaking of which, this girl really spent twenty or thirty years to travel around the world. She lived in the southern continent for such a long time, and probably has been to many countries. Now she went to the northern continent and has lived there ever since. Later, she traveled back and forth between Adak and Zambutal areas, and she has traveled most of the time.
"Actually, I haven't been there either," Sean said.
"Isn't the mentor's hometown in Zambutal?" Lucille asked curiously after hearing Sean say that.
"That place is also very big, and I haven't been to all of it..."
Holy crap!
Forgot this setting.
I did say that my hometown was set in the Zambutal region, and Lucille was just an ignorant little girl at that time. Now she is an adult and has started to ask these questions.
"How about we go visit our mentor's hometown later?"
Well……
For a moment, Sean didn't know how to answer.
hometown.
At this time, I don’t have a hometown at all, so where can I go?
Oro City hasn’t been established yet at this time, so what the hell!
"Let's talk about it later."
"I want to go and see!" Lucille murmured.
Haha~
It seems that I was not careful enough at the beginning and dug another hole. If I don't pay attention to the timeline, I will be digging a hole for the future.
"Okay, we'll see when the time comes..." He said perfunctorily. Just at this moment, a crew member came over, and Sean changed the subject by making an excuse to go over and take a look.
This is also a merchant ship...
In fact, most sea transport is carried out by merchant ships. Even warships will unload some ammunition on unnecessary days for commercial use. Maritime transport is the highest and fastest source of profit, sometimes even exceeding the profit of stockpiling food.
When he was in charge of Oro City, he found that if he spent a lot of money and manpower to reopen the farm, he would have to have people to guard it afterwards. Even those that were only used by himself could only be sold in a small part, and the profit was pitifully small. However, if he directly purchased some local goods from outside and transported them to the south to sell, the profit could be increased by more than ten times.
This kind of money can not only provide long-term food purchases, but can even bring a lot of wealth.
Therefore, even warships would not miss such an opportunity... After all, the cost of maintaining a navy is too great.
Warship transportation is safer and more reliable, and merchants are even willing to pay higher prices to ride it. It is a win-win situation for both goods and people to go back and forth.
And the one we are currently on is also a cargo ship at a nearby port...
There were always a lot of people on the trip, and those who could travel together were either merchants or wealthy residents of the two places. Ordinary poor people would not take such an expensive ship.
