Whoo-whoo!
As the steamboat approached the bustling port, the prosperous aura of Jinhu, known as the number one city in the world, enveloped me.
In the port, iron ships rose like mountains, and sails dotted the skyline like clouds.
No sooner had I disembarked at the pier than I was greeted by a throng of people surging like the tide.
Rickshaw drivers and sedan chairs weaved in and out of the crowd in pursuit of each other, while the surrounding clock shops, snack stalls, and fruit shops were a feast for the eyes.
At one snack stall, pan-fried buns, soup dumplings, and marinated brisket... all exuded a tempting aroma.
"Brother Bai!"
At that moment, Shi Mingsi also disembarked with his wife and son, finding two rickshaws, "If you don't have a place to stay, I can recommend the Tiannan Merchant Guild Hall. Once the contract is settled, Brother Bai, you'll have the means for housing and can move out."
