Chapter 661 (1/2)
Victoria Harbor.
This is the largest port at the southern end of the Golden Oak kingdom.
Since entering the steam age, through the development of industry, the national strength of Golden Oak Kingdom has been significantly improved. With the growth of its own economy and the rapid expansion of the industry, there is an urgent need for more places of origin of raw materials and goods dumping.
Victoria Harbor is such an important node connecting the Golden Oak Kingdom and many colonies.
Every day, a large number of huge merchant ships with thick black smoke enter the port, tilt down a large number of goods, and pile up local goods of the same weight. Whether they are local administrators, craftsmen, wharf coolies, or even hawkers and warblers, their faces are always in a hurry.
For them, time is life! Time is money!
As the pride of the port, the compound steam clock tower, which stands in the center of the port and at the highest point, is also the only giant landmark building in the whole kingdom that can accurately measure time to seconds.
As soon as vidi and others came to the port, they were immediately shocked by the monster like throughput and busyness.
”This is the symbol of wealth and strength of the Golden Oak Kingdom, and there are customs tax concessions, so you can see special goods from all over the world!”
Wu Ming and his team went to a hotel to check in: ”now, we can play here for a week, and then take a yacht to sea! Watch out, casinos and bars are not where you should be now! ”
At the end, he added unconsciously.
Because of the need to meet the needs of a large number of sailors, gambling and some kind of service industry here are very developed.
”Cut!”
Vidy made a gesture with disdain.
As early as in middle school, this guy was proud to tell Wu Ming that he had been laid off from the department level position. Now he is one of the most romantic people in Yinchao city. He is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.
Of course, most of them were hidden from his parents, otherwise they would be killed alive.
”Don't worry, Steven. We're all grown-ups. We know the weight!”
Neville also said calmly, but Wu Ming turned his eyes.
He is too familiar with this guy who has been cultivated by himself. As soon as he hears about Victoria Harbour, Neville's eyes shine. It is obvious that he has been longing for it for a long time.
Not to mention, he has saved a lot of money through his business share over the years. It seems that he is ready to spend a good time.
”How about going shopping, Angelina? Don't you like Bauhinia federal fashion best? There's a lot here! ”
Wu Ming looks at his sister.
”I'm tired!”
The little girl cocked her head and threw the door of the room.
”It's time for the little girl to rebel. It's OK!”
Lanny next to Philip uses a very gentle language, but he pinches Philip in his hand.
”What are you doing?”
Philip said with both hands: ”I've never thought of going to the red light district. It's all about vidi and Neville!”
”How dare you say that
Facts have proved that, no matter which world, in the aspect of reasoning, men in love are definitely not women's opponents.
”Hee hee...”
Looking at the two men fighting and finally discussing whether to go to a famous couple's restaurant for a meal and take a picture, Alice suddenly leaned over and said, ”Steven, what are you going to do in the evening?”
”I have a date!”
”What?”
Alice obviously misunderstood something, and her face turned red with anger. ”I didn't think you were the same kind of person!”
”Er...”
Wu Ming looked at her back and said, ”I'm going to do business!”
……
At night.
All kinds of brilliant neon lights are flashing all over the harbor, especially in the harbor outside. The huge searchlights are like the sun, and the light is even stronger than that in the daytime. Even if a needle is dropped, it can be seen clearly on the ground.
After the day's Wharf coolie finished work, a group of special night workers took their place.
The whole port is running day and night, constantly handling goods from all over the world.
”Never night harbor! It's true
Wu Ming was wearing a black windbreaker, hat and sunglasses.
He was already very tall, and after a slight change of appearance, I'm afraid that even Neville and vidi would not recognize each other face to face.
At this time, he was sitting under a roadside sun umbrella in a coffee shop, with a red rose in front of him.
”Are you... The boss?”
A fashionable young woman came with her bright lipstick on her lips and a heavy perfume on her lips. She sat directly opposite Wu Ming.
”It's me!”
Wu Ming's voice became thick: ”how do you dress up?”
This woman is naturally Diya, she chuckled: ”what is more suitable for public appearance than the warbler? In Victoria Harbour, this identity is the best cover. ”
”Why?”
She suddenly licked her lips, looking a little charming: ”handsome boy, do you want to play?”
”Although your mental strength has improved, you don't have to show off that trick in front of me!”
Wu Ming looks like he is standing still.
”Cut, it's boring!”
