Chapter: 1722

Only when the sun was high in the sky did Pyo-wol open his eyes.
This was something that would never have happened to the usual Pyo-wol.
He always only took the minimum amount of sleep and rest. But yesterday was different. Sleeping on a soft bed after a long time, he was able to sleep deeply. Thanks to that, his physical condition was very good.
After a quick wash, Pyo-wol left the outbuilding.
He headed to the restaurant which was on the first floor of the inn. The restaurant was already deserted since it was past mealtime.�
Pyo-wol sat down at a table by the window overlooking the harbor. Just then, a servant came running up to him.
�Did you sleep well last night?�
�I slept well.�
�That�s good to hear.�
Unlike yesterday, there was a glimmer of fear in the servant�s eyes as he looked at Pyo-wol.
Pyo-wol immediately knew the reason.
It was because of Tarha and his grandchild.�
Their display of power and behavior yesterday had frightened the servant. So seeing Pyo-wol, sitting at the same table as them, the servant naturally assumed that Pyo-wol was their companion.�
Pyo-wol asked the servant,
�Where are they?�
�They ate early in the morning and went outside.�
�Really?�
�Yes! I don�t know their exact destination though. Shall I find out for you?�
�How?�
�Hehe! I have a lot of friends here.� If I ask around, I can quickly find out what�s happening in the harbor.�
�Are your friends native to this place?�
�Yes! They were all born and raised here.�
�Really?�
Pyo-wol looked intrigued.
Haimen might not be the largest city in the world, but it was definitely the busiest.�
On one side, trading ships were unloading their cargo, while on the other side, small fishing boats were docking and unloading their caught fish.
The unloaded cargo from the trading ship would all be taken either to the nearby warehouses or the warehouses of the Sea Dragon Sect, while the caught fish would be immediately traded on the spot.
Haimen is the most active place for monetary transactions to take place in the entire world. Seeing tens of thousands of gold coins come and go every day was a common occurrence. Due to these circumstances, numerous people flocked to Haimen in pursuit of wealth.
Laborers working for the Red Bandana Association were a prime example. Being affiliated with the Red Bandana Association makes it easier for people to secure jobs at the port. This was why many people aim to join the said organization.� JrNovels.com
