Fantasy: Contract Twins, I Will Return Ten Thousand Times
Chapter 409: The Boatman
After Zhang Fan came out, with his luggage on his back, he found that mercenaries who were around his age, or even much older, had come out of the tent next door.
They have done several missions, although they know what time to choose.
The large army is ready to go, ready to go to various countries.
Recently, most of the missions offering rewards are in the Kingdom of Heaven, where there are many women and few men, so the heavy responsibility of dealing with monsters can only be given to outsiders like them.
It is a different kind of sadness that their own native young men are completely unable to resist all this.
"Aren't you going with the big army?"
After Zhao Yingzi and Zhang Fan came out of the mercenary base camp, they walked along the trail to the side of the river, and they couldn't help asking curiously.
Although it is natural to seize the opportunity to further defeat the monsters, it is best to consider their safety at the same time.
Zhang Fan's skills really don't have to be afraid of anything, but how can he have 100% trust in himself to protect Zhao Yingzi?
If something went wrong with her, Zhang Fan would definitely not be able to deal with the aftermath.
"I have always been a loner, and I like someone alone. If I live a collective life, I will be easily backstabbed. Have you forgotten? I have been in public for so long today, and others will definitely remember my face."
Zhang Fan said helplessly, walking faster.
During the auction today, he noticed a few unfriendly eyes among the crowd. Although this feeling was fleeting, he felt very uncomfortable.
He decided that if there was one thing that could be missing, he had studied this trail when he arrived, holding a world map in his hand, and rubbing it with his fingers to plan their next route.
Seeing this, Zhao Yingzi couldn't say much, so she silently followed behind.
This trail was indeed much faster than Tongtian Continent. Unknowingly, a huge river appeared in front of them, with waves rolling on it.
The setting sun is not far away, and the fiery red sun shines on this area, adding a touch of romance.
Take a very long waterway here, and rent a carriage or ride on horseback to the post station from there.
"There is a river here, let's go to the boatman for help!" Zhao Yingzi suggested.
Moored on the shore, it is obvious that they are ready to go, and the last batch of customers have been delivered. At this moment, some of them crouched and counted the silver taels in their hands.
This trip can earn a lot of money once or twice, and there is no need to worry about own basic necessities.
Although I am tired, I seldom get a good night's sleep.
After all, she had never traveled far, so she held Zhang Fan's hand excitedly, wanting to find the boatman.
The boatman's boat is not too big, and a boat can barely seat about five people. Two paddles are placed on both sides respectively.
At this moment, the boatman who was taking a rest was smoking a dry tobacco boredly. When he saw Zhang Fan and Zhao Yingzi, there was no emotion on his face.
At this moment, another mercenary team walking on the main road was ready to go, and rushed over here, kicking up dust all over the place, and the whole formation was huge.
Seeing the large group of mercenaries driving towards him, the corner of the boatman's mouth slowly curved into a smile.
This smile is not the joy of making money, but full of calculations.
Zhang Fan knew before that, those who drive waterways make a lot of money, and when there are more people, they can make a lot of money in a day or two.
What you earn is not the money for everyone to buy tickets, but to get money from them and earn tips. Whoever gives the most tips will be the first to get on the boat and reach the destination first.
In order to destroy the monsters earlier than others and get the reward when the bounty ends, everyone is afraid that others will be there first.
After all, whoever kills first will be the owner of the reward, and all items will fall into that person's pocket.
The mercenary gangs of the major trade unions with a strong sense of utilitarianism will naturally not let go of this excellent opportunity!
"I came here again today. They are all regular customers, so why not make it cheaper or open a back door for me to go!"
A mercenary elbowed the boatman's chest very familiarly, trying to make friends.
The boatman pushed back the other party's hand calmly, his eyes were full of reluctance: "Hey, you are treacherous, how can you tell me how to do business in the future? There are many people who want to hurry, I will open it for you." Back door, it's not fair to other people."
After all, in front of so many people, I am embarrassed to go through the back door openly, and I will definitely be condemned by many people, and I may lose my job.
The boatman shook his head resolutely. The few people in the front who didn’t bring enough had to temporarily withdraw from the team and decided to grit their teeth and walk on land. At worst, they would arrive at the scene three or four days later than others. What about the dishes.
It would be great if you can pick up some essence items dropped by monsters.
After some people withdrew from the team, the number of people was reduced by screening. Zhang Fan directly took out his own purse and threw it forward, saying, "Is there enough money in it?"
He squinted.
The boatman took it firmly in Own's hand, and at first he was a little puzzled, he thought that this young man looked plain, and he didn't look like a rich man in his clothes.
But when he pulled the drawstring to open the purse and saw that it was full of white silver and shiny gold, he laughed so hard that his mouth was pulled back to the back of his ears.
Quickly pulled the belt together, slowly tucked it into the lapel of own, and said: "Of course it is possible, please, you two distinguished guests."
Zhang Fan calmly took Zhao Yingzi's hand, and the two got on the rickety boat.
As for this place, why didn't a huge cruise ship be built? This is because the sea area is very calm and there are few tsunamis, so the safety factor is very high.
If you are tired, you can rest on the boat.
The boatmen prepared some food for everyone to fill their stomachs, although it sounded very cheap, and the cost they gave was very low.
But generally speaking, mercenaries on their way don't care about these things, and instead plan various blueprints for their next actions in their minds.
"Mr. Boatman, how long will it take us to reach the other side of the mainland?"
After getting on the boat and sitting firmly, the boatman picked up three other customers with the highest bids, and then told them to be careful not to poke their heads out.
After everything was arranged, Zhang Fan couldn't help asking questions.
He wondered if there was enough time? Although the first step is successful, it has surpassed others by a thousand miles.
And all of this is a very good start, as long as you can keep it steady, you will be able to successfully achieve the desired effect in the future.
