The port city of Visakhapatnam was vibrant as usual. The stalls were welcoming to the trades from different places. The European merchants and the merchants from Java flocked the streets in search of spices and wares. There was a new demand for paper and the ceramics in the port as well. The port was lined up with a lot of the cargo ships; the laborers worked around the block to unload all the goods in the ship.
Unlike the other places, the Empire didn't allow the exploitation of laborers by the merchants, so the port city had some rules on wages for the laborers. The merchants were required to pay it as wages for the laborers, or else the Empire would restrict any future trades from the said merchant.
