Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 108, Golden Man Alley, is quite exciting.

I have two more days until the time I arranged with Jingyuan. I'll go to the Prison of Imprisonment then.

And today...

"Hey, Lan, let's go check out Jinren Alley."

I wonder how Xing is doing over there. Do the two people at the company know that the headquarters was bombed?

I wonder if those guys know that the headquarters suffered this undeserved disaster simply because Lan was in a bad mood recently and happened to get a big scolding from someone in the company.

There's really nothing we can do about it.

Lan thought about what she had seen and heard in Jinren Alley, and then she remembered the bet that Su Chang had made with those two people in Jinren Alley.

"I just don't know if they're still here."

With the company headquarters destroyed, are they still here chasing debts, or have they gone back to help?

Without a doubt, the former is the most likely.

After all, rebuilding the headquarters also requires money.

So, these people will probably be frantically chasing after the debtors everywhere.

I'll probably have to pay them back myself first—debts can't be delayed. People who owe money aren't bosses, they're scoundrels. Have some morals and don't go too far.

So, Yunzhi prepared the money and dragged Lan to Jinren Alley.

Then, I was very surprised to see that Jinren Lane had changed so much.

Are those flying birds in the sky... the magical birds of the celestial ship?

This thing is usually used for picking up and dropping off packages. The speed is good, and the quality... if you're careful, it's passable. Transporting some items is not a problem.

However, these gadgets can occasionally act up, sometimes wandering off on their own and leaving their employees searching for them.

Fortunately, they can't fly out of the fairy ship, and they have quite a few employees. They can just ask someone to keep an eye on things when a few of them run around.

How long has it been? Xing has already set up logistics in Jinren Alley.

It's gotten this bad?

Is the passage of time different for stars than for normal people?

At this moment, Yun Zhi was filled with doubt.

However, the doubts didn't last long.

"Foreign talents were able to restore Jinren Lane to such a good state in such a short time, which shows that the Chamber of Commerce is useless."

Lan's somewhat muffled voice rang in my ears.

Yunzhi: ......

According to your logic, if he doesn't come to the Immortal Ship, then Luofu will have to rely on the Starry Sky Train to deal with the Great Lord of Annihilation and the Secret Transmission of the Medicine King—can you really say that the Six Emperors are useless?

That's an overreaction.

Although in a sense, this is not wrong.

"Let's not talk about that anymore, Lan. Let's go to the docks."

Since there are so many mechanical birds, the dock must be in use now. It's a good place to make money. If used well, it won't take long to pay off the debt.

It's not like Yalilo-6, that planet that's not only in debt but also overdue.

Lan nodded and followed Yunzhi toward the dock.

Along the way, the hustle and bustle around us flashed by, and it really did have the feel of a bustling night market.

However, the dock remains the same.

There were just a lot more cargo starships. The clever birds flew up and down, unloaded the goods, the workers stacked them up, and the starships set sail for other places.

It seems to be going quite smoothly.

But if the dock hadn't been surrounded by a large crowd like when Yunzhi last visited, Yunzhi would have truly believed that life here was peaceful and serene.

Lan pressed her temples, feeling a headache coming on: "They're arguing over there. Those guys damaged goods in Jinren Alley, and even after being caught red-handed, they're still arguing."

Honestly, I'm speechless.

We just dealt with Pierpont once, and these guys never learn their lesson.

There are far too many traitors among us.

Yun Zhi couldn't help but rub his forehead: "What kind of nonsense is this? Why did I feel that life in Luofu was peaceful and serene when I wasn't here?"

Lan: "We haven't gone to any other immortal ships yet, so it's best not to go any further."

First, let them think that everything is fine on the other immortal ships.

Even if it's just self-comfort.

"So how did the company's people damage the goods?"

Lan replied, "I bribed a dockworker to sabotage cargo transport."

"very good."

The hunter's intuition was naturally reliable, so what Yunzhi needed to do now was—

"Get him."

------------

Xing was having a great time working in Jinren Alley.

There's a reward to be had, and if you do a good job, people will admire you.

Xing thinks that life is just so enjoyable (hands on hips).

But before she could be happy for long, her phone suddenly received a message.

It was sent by the secretary and Su Chang. The message was short and mainly told her that there were frequent cases of goods being damaged during transportation at the dock.

Today, the company representative was caught by Su Chang at the dock.

Upon receiving the news, Xing rushed to the dock and confronted the company representative.

However, after some investigation, it seemed there were no results. There was just a clever "Dense Cloud Golden Toad" inside that was causing trouble.

But ironically, the machine wasn't delivered by the company representative; it was delivered by a dockworker.

The goods the company represented consisted of nothing more than a pile of fragile vases.

The skill is the goods delivered by a worker.

That's at least what's written in the official records.

Su Chang was too impulsive; the company representative was demanding that she apologize to him.

Su Chang had no choice; she was never good at arguing.

"Yes, no..."

The little girl gritted her teeth and practically squeezed out a few words.

But she didn't finish her sentence.

Another voice, as swift as the wind, interrupted her.

"Ah, sorry to bother you, everyone."

The dark-eyed youth pushed through the crowd of onlookers and walked up behind Su Chang: "What, haven't you paid off your debts yet? This place seems pretty good to me."

"Ah, senior is here!" Su Chang's eyes lit up.

Xing saw the taciturn Lan, blinked, and took half a step back.

Last night, Mr. Walter suddenly told them that the company headquarters had been grazed by the gale of the [Hunter] Light Arrow and was destroyed.

Himeko asked him if he knew the reason, as she wanted to ask Yunzhi about it.

Xing felt there was no need to inquire.

The word "hunting" inherently carries connotations of revenge, and the company representative is further disparaging it...

Was it just a gust of wind that brushed past?

Waaaaah, Emperor Bow Master, He really... I'm crying my eyes out.
