Chapter 183 Sailing
When Liu Caixia took Liu Xiaolu through the market, she bought some fresh and hot buns for everyone as breakfast.
She distributed the buns to the guests. Liu Hao and the other men took the buns and started eating them in big mouthfuls, finishing one in just three or two bites.
“These people are too early!”
Indeed, at this time, workers carrying goods on the dock were coming and going in an endless stream. Father Liu knew a little more about it, so he explained to others:
"At this time, cargo ships usually sail during the day and find a place to stop and rest at night. The main reason is that if they encounter pirates during the night, they will be in a passive position. Although the time is not so precise at this time, these merchant ships usually make many trips back and forth. Basically, there should be a rough plan for how long the journey will take and when to arrive at where. Try to ensure safety along the way as much as possible."
"Once we're on board, we can ask the guys on board."
"Learn more about it. After we settle down, I would also like to visit other places if I have the chance."
Liu Caixia looked at the large ships and felt deeply moved.
The large ships at that time were really far inferior to those of modern times, but she also knew that owning one was not an easy thing.
Father Liu laughed and criticized Liu Caixia: "It's difficult to realize your idea, hahaha..."
"Dad, you still have to have dreams. What if they come true?"
Liu Hao also helped to grab it: "Uncle Liu, with our intelligence and wisdom, we still have hope of owning a big ship! I wonder how much a ship like this would cost?"
Father Liu: "I don't know, but it's definitely not cheap. If you have a boat, you need a dock for it. You can't dock at a dock just because you pay. People are in business, and they will probably have concerns about competitors who want to steal their business. But this is a long time ago, don't think too much, just go."
Several people quickened their pace and walked to the pier of Su Family Trading Company at the edge.
At this time, the goods here have almost been moved.
Master Su Wu was standing and talking with another man.
After a while, a boatman ran down and said something to the two of them.
The two of them said a few words to the waiter, who then ran to the shore and shouted, "Passengers can board the ship now. Please show your tickets!"
Several people waiting on the side went over to line up one after another, and Liu's father and his group also lined up behind.
Soon, several people lined up behind them.
Judging from this, there are quite a few passengers on the boat, at least twenty or thirty people.
"Please show me your ticket..."
Father Liu took out the contract that had been signed last night. The waiter looked at the names on it, pointed out six people, and let them get on board.
Father Liu wanted to say hello to Master Su Wu, but before he could go over, Master Su Wu left, and the man standing next to him followed him onto the boat.
After everyone was on board, the waiter called out, "Are there any other passengers who want to board? The time is almost up."
"Are there any other passengers who want to board the ship? The ship is about to sail..."
After waiting for a while, the fellow ran onto the boat, and a fellow on the shore took away the pedals and untied the reins.
After the waiter boarded the ship, he stood next to the man and said, "Thank you all for taking the Su family's merchant ship. The one aboard this time is Fourth Master Su."
After that, he turned to Fourth Master Su and said, "Fourth Master, do you have anything to say?"
"It's okay, just arrange them. Explain the route and some rules to everyone."
After the man finished speaking, he walked towards the open cabin.
"Okay, I'll tell you about the journey. If you have been on a boat before and don't want to listen, go to the lobby and take a rest. I'll take you to your rooms after I finish. If you are on a boat for the first time, be sure to listen carefully to what I say next."
The waiter hadn't started talking yet, but the boat was already moving slowly forward. It was still dark, and the boat was surrounded by torches, which made the people's cheeks red.
The young man stood under the torch and spoke loudly: "First of all, our ship sails during the day and docks at night. The route will generally not deviate. Generally, we will arrive at the next county at the hour of Xu. If there is a favorable wind, we will arrive half an hour or an hour earlier. If there is no wind, we can basically arrive on time. If there is a problem, it will not be delayed for too long. Everyone just needs to be mentally prepared.
For passengers who do not disembark, if it is still early, you can go to the county town where the boat stops, or stay on the boat or in the county town. Anyway, the boat leaves at 4:45 a.m. every day, so just don't miss the departure time. Of course, the boat fee will not be refunded if you do not stay on the boat.
There is a canteen on the ship where you can buy meals. Boiled water is free and can also be obtained at the canteen.
Finally, there is the issue of safety. The situation in our city is relatively good. There are basically no mountain bandits or water bandits now. If you are traveling far away from Zhongzhou, please be careful, as there are still water bandits in some places.
If you encounter such a situation, you cannot just rely on us for protection. After all, we have limited manpower. I hope everyone can take up arms to protect themselves."
After hearing what he said, a few people began to whisper. Father Liu and the others were not worried. After all, if they really encountered such a situation, they would definitely protect themselves.
It is very unwise to put your life safety completely in the hands of others.
However, the others discussed it privately for a few minutes and did not raise any objections.
"Okay, everyone, follow me. I'll take you to the rest room. The first floor is where men rest, and the second floor is where women rest."
The first floor is relatively large, while the second floor is relatively small.
So there is a dining hall and hall on the first floor, and there are four rooms, one room can accommodate four people. There are four rooms on the second floor, and one room can accommodate four people.
The two rooms on the third floor should be private rooms reserved for the owner of the Su family or important figures.
The crew and men lived on the basement floor, under the deck.
The four men including Liu's father happened to share one room. They couldn't sleep, so they all came out to look around on the deck.
There are two oars on each side of the bow, and the boat moves forward at a relatively fast speed as it rows in perfect coordination with the current.
“This boat is really fast!”
"Yeah, it's pretty good. Suddenly I want to own a boat even more." Liu Hao sighed.
"You think so? They must have sailed back and forth countless times." This time, without waiting for Liu's father to explain, Qu Dingliang poured a basin of cold water on him.
"Hehe..." giggle.
"It's going so fast! I believe we'll be there soon! Finally we don't have to rush anymore!" Liu Caixia brought Liu Xiaolu down from the second floor and stood next to them.
Several people have experienced this deeply.
Look together in the direction the ship is heading.
His eyes are full of anticipation for the future!
