Chapter 1245: The Great Immigration
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
At the Sedimentation Bay in the Kingdom of Wolfheart .
White drove his wagon into the busy dock area .
"Ladies and gentlemen, we've arrived at our destination . No matter what life you used to lead, you'll have a brand new life from today onwards . I wish every one of you good luck . It has been a priviledge being of your service! Now, I can offer you one more additional service as a courtesy," White said as he reined in his horse .
His business had been pretty good recently . After the arrival of the Graycastle ships, he had obtained more business opportunities, especially of short-distance transportation services . Every time he transported residents in the surrounding towns and cities to the port, he could earn around 10 silver royals, and normally, he could do that twice a day . He could have offered another ride at night had he not cared too much about the condition of his wagon . In that case, he would actually earn a little bit more than what he had got back in the church .
Further, the compensation was not paid by the passengers but by the Graycastle men . He only needed to stamp on the traveling document before he proceeded to the sentry post to request for his remuneration . The compensation was based on the number of the passengers he carried, and the Graycastle men had never delayed any payment .
Because of this, many people at the Sedimentation Bay started to provide similar transportation services, including sailors and handymen . Even though a lot of them did not know how to maneuver a carriage, they could ask someone who did to join them . The service was in such a high demand that they did not really need to worry about attracting customers . It was a job that allowed people to earn quick money . The only factor they needed to consider about was the traveling distance, as the farther the towns were, the higher expenses it would incur .
Graycastle men would like to offer help to anyone who was willing to leave the Kingdom of Wolfheart, both rich and poor . Apparently, the King of Graycastle did not really care about money . White thus did not want to lose such a lucrative business opportunity .
Everybody loved money .
White had also heard of the war in the north . There was suddenly a huge influx of refugees in the Kingdom of Wolfheart, so the rumor could possibly be true . Also, Smarty had told him that the lord of the Sedimentation Bay, Baron Jean Bate, transferred a large number of his personal properties to a ship, in an apparent attempt to leave this place . In consideration of these recent events, White also had to find a retreat for himself .
If he could earn a huge sum of money now, he would be able to live a better life in the future .
"What kind of service?" someone asked immediately .
"Some useful experience and kind advice," White answered as he pointed at the port where a great number of large ships docked . "Look over there . Although everyone wants to leave for Graycastle, not everyone will have a pleasant journey . I had been at the Sedimentation Bay before they came here, so I know a lot . Perhaps, my advice could help you . "
"Then . . . please tell us . . . "
"Sure, but you have to pay me . Not much . One silver royal would do . "
White knew poor people did not really care about what kind of situation they were venturing into . They only needed to be fed and clothed . Therefore, he mainly targetted at refugees who had a little bit of savings . They loved to hear little tips and advice . Since White did not charge much, and they did not even pay for the ride, they did not mind buying the information .
Because White used to be that kind of person too .
"Haha, that's a game that Rats normally play," a well-dressed man with brown hair sneered . "But this man is obviously not as daring as Rats . One silver royal only . Here you go . "
Soon, the servant beside the man handed White the money .
White smiled stiffly . It appeared that the man was a noble, a diminished noble actually, for he had to now share a wagon with civilians .
