Fighting Break Sphere: My Days as a Tutor at Canaan College

Chapter 200 Canaan Passenger Ship

As the leader of the Canaan River shipping, the passenger ships under the Canaan Shipping Line naturally carry a large number of practitioners in addition to ordinary people. According to the price, the cabin rooms are divided into four corresponding grades from high to low with different environments, namely the four grades of Heaven, Earth, Xuan and Huang.

Basically, everyone who has taken a boat at the docks or ferries along the Canaan River knows that unless you are stupid or have a lot of money, or unless you have special circumstances or needs, you should never take the Canaan Cruise's Sky Class cabin.

Because the fare for a sky-class cabin is really outrageously expensive!

Thousands of gold coins, just to ride on your ship?

What are you picturing?
Is your cabin made of gold?

Or are there special services besides the normal and considerate services?
Twenty or thirty gold coins are enough for an ordinary family of three to have enough food and clothing for a year, and thousands of gold coins are enough to take a boat. What a concept! Even if a cultivator comes from an aristocratic family, with a large family and a lot of wealth, he can't afford such a waste, right? !
Of course, those top families are excluded, such as the Mittel family.

But even so, no one's money comes from the wind... Well, except for that guy who got nearly a million gold coins from a cave.

……

After spending some time walking around the dock, Liu Xi made a rough observation and found that, except for the "Canaan Shipping Passenger Ship No. 07" which would depart soon, the earliest departure of other passenger ships docked at the dock would take at least two hours to wait, because there were not many passengers on board.

It is estimated that many people have boarded the Canaan Line passenger ship No. 07, resulting in poor business for other docked passenger ships during this period.

After all, among the passenger ships under Canaan Line, except for the sky-class cabins which are extremely disappointing, the other three-class cabins, namely yellow, black and earth, have generally good cost-effectiveness.

Cabin rooms of different grades, from low to high, have different environments, styles, daily food standards, and infrastructure. Even the service staff in each area are fundamentally different.

Moreover, it has to be said that this level division is very useful to a large number of people, and ordinary people are not excluded among these people.

First of all, the cabin classes are divided according to price, which undoubtedly divides the passengers on the ship into specific groups. The most rough distinction is between ordinary people and practitioners.

Ordinary passengers usually choose the cheap and affordable yellow-class cabins, but in order to show their different status, practitioners will naturally choose higher-end cabins, such as the Xuan-class or Di-class cabins if they have the conditions.

One advantage of this is that people from the two groups do not have to mix together, and ordinary people can basically avoid being looked down upon and bullied by some uncultured practitioners because of their different and humble status, or offending practitioners because of some actions or misunderstandings.

Since there are no ordinary people mixed in the group of practitioners, they will naturally be much calmer and will not look for someone to establish a sense of superiority for no reason.

Birds of a feather flock together.

If they were separated into cabins of different grades, both would obviously feel much more comfortable.

Apart from this, there are two other reasons why the passenger ships under the Canaan Line have no worries about the source of passengers and attract many passengers. One is safety guarantee. After all, it is the leader in the Canaan River water transportation, and there are very few ignorant people who would cause trouble on the river.

The second point is that Canaan Line is willing to invest a lot of money in the material of the passenger ship itself. The hull and frame are all of great importance. When sailing on the river, it is many times more stable than ordinary ships, and the bumps are less. Many people who are seasick will naturally feel much more comfortable on Canaan Line's passenger ships.

"Damn it, I don't want to wait here for nothing. My life span is foreseeable. It's not easy to come by, and it's very precious..."

Talking to himself, Liu Xi subconsciously looked at the Canaan Shipping Ship No. 07, which stood out among the other ships moored at the dock. He took a deep breath and walked slowly towards a wooden building at the northwest corner of the dock.

"Forget it. I'll just be a sucker this time. I seem to remember that after revealing my identity as an alchemist, I can get a discount on the boat fare?"

While he was thinking secretly, he had already entered the building where all the long-distance passenger ships sold tickets at the dock.

Inside the building, there are three ticket counters lined up in a row. There are quite a few people queuing up to buy tickets at the moment, and there is a long line in front of each counter.

Fortunately, the ticket buying process was very quick. After telling which passenger ship you wanted to take and where you wanted to go, you paid the money and got the ticket in the other.

Soon, the long line in front shortened rapidly, and soon it was Liu Xi's turn to buy a ticket.

"Where are you going, sir? Which passenger ship do you plan to take at the dock?"

At the counter in front of him, a gorgeous woman in uniform was asking him with a professional smile.

However, no matter how he looked at the woman's smile, there seemed to be a hint of impatience.

In fact, think about it, if you repeat the same few sentences all day long and always maintain a professional smile, in the long run, a person's initial enthusiasm for work will be worn out, and you will feel tired and impatient.

Smacking his lips, Liu Xi silently took out his first-class alchemist badge from his arms, put it on his chest with a calm expression, and then said to the woman indifferently:

"Hechuan City, Canaan Line Passenger Ship No. 07."

Hearing this, the uniformed woman's gaze fixed on the badge on his chest. Then, a completely different smile appeared on her face, a smile so sweet that Liu Xi felt his teeth were sticky.

"Master Alchemist, there is only one ticket left for a heavenly cabin on the Canaan Line Passenger Ship No. 07. Are you sure you want to buy it?"

"determine."

Liu Xi cherishes words as if they were gold.

Seeing his calm demeanor, the uniformed woman was helpless. Knowing that it was unlikely that she would be able to get close to the young alchemist, she carefully took out a receipt made of special monster fur from the drawer, scribbled a few words on it, and said:

"Sir, you are a first-class alchemist. According to the empire's regulations, first-class alchemists will be given a 30% discount on any passenger ship. You only need to pay 700 gold coins!"

Liu Xi nodded, took out his two-line purple gold card from his storage ring and handed it to the other party.

And when he saw the two-ribbon purple gold card in his hand, his gaze froze again. Needless to say, if he paid with this purple gold card, there would be corresponding discounts depending on the number of ripples on it.

A compromise?!
……

After getting the ticket, he walked out of the ticket selling building without any delay. Today's purchase of the boat ticket made Liu Xi once again deeply feel the "charm" of alchemists as a privileged class.
