Vol 3 Chapter 446: wool fleet

???????

﹏?????﹏??

The north wind blows, and the setting sun sends the boat back.

Just after the setting sun sank into the mountain, only a touch of orange-red sunset was left on the top of the mountain, and the crescent moon and a few stars appeared in the night sky in the east.

A fleet of ships galloped down by the north wind and current, and soon left the mountains behind.

The captain of the leading ship instructed the sailors to hang up the lights, and then came to the young knight standing at the bow.

"Your Excellency Gawain, we will soon reach our destination." The captain of the ship said respectfully to the young knight. .

Gawain nodded to the captain of the ship and said, "You have worked hard."

The captain of the boat bowed respectfully to Gawain and then stepped back, running the boat for a lifetime. This was the first time he had met the knight master who spoke to him so kindly.

This is the third time that Gawain has brought a wool-carrying team to Prato, Linda's territory. Now the river leading to Prato is full of fleets of wool and grain.

At the beginning of the year, Charles ordered Afo to start controlling wool sales in the Prato area. As a result, this year's drought in the prairie caused a sharp drop in wool production and the McGarden family's disaster relief, which caused the orc tribe to sell much less wool than in previous years. The McGarden family.

It is most convenient to transport bulk cargo by water, but this year, the water level of the river in the north is generally low, and a large section of the river beach that was originally underwater has been exposed. Wool must be used in more cargo ships.

Gao Wen's head is big enough to organize so many cargo ships. Fortunately, when Charles was forging the Holy Land, he left him a few tips for him to open when his head hurts.

Therefore, when Gawain led the convoy to the port of Avalon City for the first time, Mordred, who had opened up all the tricks in advance, asked Gawain to go to the Temple of Forge for help. Wool can be shipped.

Wealth and silk are very attractive, especially since the ships are transporting wool that is extremely scarce in other regions. Those traditional wool workshops are now facing the dilemma of shortage of raw materials, so the nobles who are engaged in wool products business put their ideas on these fleets.

This time, the fleet led by Gawain was detained by the nobleman. When the fleet passed the rivers in their territory, they had to pay 20% of the toll on the goods.

Just when Gawain was arguing with the nobleman's butler, Mordred opened a box that was put together with the kit, and took out the flags of the Temple of Light, the Temple of Fire, and the Temple of Life and handed it to the captain of the ship to hang it.

Charles's five percent commission for each temple is not for nothing. No noble dares to stop the cargo ship of the temple, and even the usual toll tax is exempted. It's just that Charles, adhering to the tradition of low-key, has never used this method to avoid taxes and fees before. .

The destination of Gawain and the others this trip was a textile factory in the northernmost part of the Prato region, and it was also the first textile factory the fleet encountered downstream.

This textile factory is surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing water. There are many monsters around. If the factory was not blocked by a tall concrete wall, the workers would not be able to survive under the sharp claws and teeth of the monsters.

The lights on the cement wall of the factory soon appeared in front of Gawain's eyes, but there were a lot of lights tonight, and other sounds came from time to time.

"Be vigilant and prepare for battle!" Gawain's voice was amplified by magic and resounded above the fleet, and the captains immediately stopped the boat as far as possible in the middle of the river to stay away from the shore.

It's just that this section of the river is not wide after the water level drops, and the boat can't go anywhere.

At this time, the fleet was approaching the factory. Gawain and the guards on the ship saw a large group of fiery red monkeys gathered outside the factory wall. These red monkeys were throwing ping-pong **** at the wall.

These red monkeys are one meter to one meter tall, and the explosive flames they throw are quite powerful, at least they can blow a little dust out of a wall built with **** cement.

But they have no way to climb the wall, and the tall and smooth concrete wall gives them nowhere to climb.

The factory guard team members on the fence are using bows and arrows and magic to drive away the monkeys. It may be that the smell of the food in the factory attracted the monkeys, and they didn't want to disperse at all.

"No, it's a hot monkey!" The captain of the boat was startled, "It would be bad if they set the boat on fire!"

The wool on the ship is easy to catch fire, and it would be very troublesome to burn it.

"I'll drive them away." Gawain said to the captain of the ship.

It's just that it's a little troublesome to get from the boat to the shore, especially because the river is full of silt, and it's not easy to walk on it.

At this time, Mordred and a teenager came to Gawain's side. Mordred was carrying Frostmourne on his back, and he was holding a chicken leg that was almost eaten up. A dark blue long sword.

Originally, Arturia didn't want Mordred to use Frostmourne so early, because Mordred's mental power was unable to control this magical weapon, and forcibly using the magic on it would be backlashed, just like someone who is unwilling to do so. Lifting heavy objects within your capacity will hurt you.

The problem was that Mordred liked the sword so much that he almost fell asleep with it. Arturia had no choice but to partially seal the magic on the sword before giving it to her.

"Are we going to go ashore?" Mordred asked ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Gawain said: "You make a way, we at least drive those monkeys away."

He first threw the gnawed chicken thigh bones into the river, and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, then Mordred stood on the side of the ship and raised Frostmourne, slashing overboard.

A white sword light flashed across, and an ice and snow channel instantly appeared on the river surface and the silt on the bank.

Gawain said to the boy and Mordred who were eager to try: "Mordred, wait for you to take the lead, I will cover you on the left, and Lancelot will cover you on the right."

When the weather was cold, all the pigs went into the pigsty. Lancelot, who had nothing to do, planned to become an adventurer in Tanhausen City in the south in order to make money for his sister to learn magic.

After Gawain learned about this on the Dreamland Platform, he asked him to wait in a port city in the east, earning Charles's money as an **** for Charles' fleet, which was much better than venturing into the underground labyrinth.

So Lancelot packed up, put on the long sword he just got, said goodbye to the magic teacher his sister Guinevere and Linda had hired for her, and then ran to see Gawain, whom he had only seen in his dreams. Big brother and little sister Mordred.

Running on smooth ice requires skills, but fortunately, the three young people have mastered this skill, otherwise they will fall into the water.

The hot monkeys on the shore found three uninvited guests. The hot monkeys, who were starving because of the reduction in fruit production in the drought-affected forest, did not mind eating some hairless erect apes to fill their stomachs, so the monkeys near your shore immediately rushed over.
