Chapter 318: Port of Exile

At the dock of Ratchet Town, a two-masted sailing ship is setting sail. This ship is Ratchet II.

Ratchet Town now has two fleets, one is the murloc fleet and the other is the pirate fleet.

The murloc fleet currently has only a few two-masted sailing ships. Because Ratchet Town has not established trade relations with other forces, these two-masted sailing ships basically sail between Ratchet Town, Warrior Island and Raging Tide Bay, mainly serving as transport ships.

The pirate fleet is led by Baron Longshaw, who mainly operates near Warrior Island and secretly guards the entrance to Ratchet Bay.

The murloc fleet originally had a three-masted sailing ship named Ratchet I, but unfortunately it was destroyed by the troll bat rider during a voyage.

Yang Yi stood at the bow of Ratchet II, and beside him were the murloc captain Mojitov and the troll navigator Talley.

"Grimby's fleet left last night and should have sailed a long way now." Yang Yi said.

"Their fleet is all three-masted sailing ships, and Ratchet II is only a two-masted sailing ship. We can't catch up with them." Mojitov said.

"Fortunately, we know their destination. They are going to the orcs' wild boar farm, so they will definitely stop at the Exile Port in Durotar, which is the port of the Steamsand Group." Yang Yi said.

"I hope we can catch up with them in the Exile Port." Mojimus said.

Ratchet II set sail for the Exile Port in Durotar.

On the way to the Exile Port, you have to pass through the Echo Islands. Ratchet I was attacked by the incendiary bombs of the troll bat rider in the strait between the Echo Islands and Sen'jin Village and sank in the strait.

If you don't go through the Echo Islands Strait, it will take a few more days to go around the outside of the Echo Islands.

Time is tight, Ratchet II can only take a shortcut.

In order to avoid complications, this time Ratchet II chose to cross the Echo Islands Strait at night.

Ratchet II did not encounter the bat rider, and successfully crossed the strait. After several days of sailing, he arrived at the Exile Port.

As a free trade port of the Steamsand Group, Exile Port maintains a very close relationship with the tribe and also maintains trade relations with forces outside the tribe.

Even if a rare murloc ship comes, the goblins of Exile Port remain neutral and do not reject murlocs. After all, murloc gold is as good as everyone else's.

Ratchet Town has not established trade relations with Exile Port, which means that it has not obtained a trade license.

In this case, Ratchet Town's merchant ships coming to Exile Port must be very careful. Not only may they be regarded as a security threat, but transactions will also be subject to heavy taxes.

"Mayor, I saw Grimby's fleet. They are docked at the pier in front." Mojitov found the target at the first time.

"Pull the ship over."

Yang Yi asked Ratchet No. 2 to pull over, and he ran to find Grimby as soon as the ship docked.

Grimby was not on the ship. The goblin first mate on the ship told Yang Yi that Grimby had not returned from the orc farm.

"Have you seen two little murlocs? Someone saw them sneaking onto your ship." Yang Yi asked the goblin first mate.

"Oh, you mean the two 'stowaways'. The two little guys are really good at hiding. We didn't find them until we docked. They have been driven off the ship. You may have to go to the city to find them." The goblin first mate said.

Knowing that Benbol Ba and Finjie did follow the merchant ship to Exile Port, Yang Yi immediately asked about the two little murlocs in this goblin port city.

Even in a neutral port city like Exile Port, murlocs are extremely rare, so Yang Yi quickly got the news.

"According to the goblins here, two little murlocs were performing on the street two days ago, singing and dancing and attracting a lot of audiences. It seems that they must be Benbol Ba and his friends, but I don't know where they went later."

Yang Yi searched for Benbol Ba's whereabouts in the streets and alleys of Exile Port, and asked people if they had seen the two little murlocs.

Although Exile Port is a newly built trading port, it has developed very quickly with the support of the Hot Sand Group. In a short period of time, the business here has become very prosperous.

The streets of the city are crowded with people and vehicles, and all kinds of rare mounts and engineering vehicles come and go.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, including weapon shops, armor shops, tailor shops, food shops, grocery stores, etc., and many places are under intensive construction.

There is a dark side behind the prosperity. Merchants selling banned potions at the door of the bar, black markets selling smuggled weapons in dark corners, and blurred figures mixed in the crowd, etc., all reveal that there is a lot of peace behind this thriving area.

Yang Yi did not find Benbol Ba until the evening.

Yang Yi stopped by the roadside and took out two letters of introduction.

These two letters of introduction were given to him by the tauren Bain and the goblin merchant Rizarex, and they were both written to Gazlowe.

"Gazlowe is the manager here and the mayor of Exile Port. If he is willing to help, it might be more efficient than me looking around alone."

Yang Yi was considering asking Gazlowe for help when he heard several rapid horn sounds behind him.

Beep! Beep!

The horn sound was very harsh. The person who honked the horn must be asking for a beating.

Yang Yi looked back and saw that it was a goblin-modified sports car. The person who was sitting in the car and honking the horn was a fat human wearing exaggerated sunglasses and a flirty dress.

He didn't even need to take off his exaggerated sunglasses. Yang Yi recognized at a glance that the guy who asked for a beating was Lu Xiaoming.

The goblin modified sports car was made according to the short stature of the goblins. Lu Xiaoming's fat body squeezed in the driver's seat looked very funny, but it didn't prevent him from showing off.

It must be said that Lu Xiaoming showed off very successfully. Yang Yi was immediately attracted by this goblin modified sports car.

"Lu Xiaoming, where did you get this sports car?" Yang Yi asked immediately.

"Brother Poseidon, my car is cool enough." Lu Xiaoming said proudly.

"Cool, very cool, very cool. Is this car yours?" Yang Yi asked again.

"This car is not mine, I borrowed it. But as long as I don't return it, this car will be mine." Lu Xiaoming said very annoyingly.

"You are worthy of it." Yang Yi gave Lu Xiaoming a thumbs up.

"Brother Poseidon, are you here for something in Exile Port?" Lu Xiaoming asked.

"The little fish people in the town ran here, I came to look for them." Yang Yi said.

"Have you found it?" Lu Xiaoming asked.

"I didn't find it. I plan to find the manager Gazlowe, hoping he can help." Yang Yi said.

"It just so happens that there is a carnival party in Exile Port tonight. Gazlowe is the organizer of the party, and he will definitely come." Lu Xiaoming pointed to the co-pilot seat and said, "Hurry up and get in the car. I'll take you to the party."

Yang Yi got in the car when he heard that he could see Gazlowe at the party.

The small goblin modified sports car carried Lu Xiaoming, a fat human, and Yang Yi, a strong big fish man, looked very weak and pitiful, and looked like they could be crushed at any time.

As soon as Lu Xiaoming stepped on the accelerator, the goblin modified sports car rumbled and rushed into the street with the two of them.

Along the way, Lu Xiaoming kept stepping on the accelerator, honking the horn, and walking in an S-shaped route, turning into a street bomber.

"Let's go to the clothing store first." Lu Xiaoming said to Yang Yi.

"What are you going to the clothing store for?" Yang Yi asked.

"We are going to a carnival party later, you have to change into a dress before going. This is my territory, I will pay today." Lu Xiaoming said.

How did this become your territory, Yang Yi wondered.

Under the sidelong glances of passers-by, Lu Xiaoming drove the goblin modified sports car through the streets of Exile Port and came to a tailor shop.

The tailor in the shop was very professional. He immediately modified a white dress according to Yang Yi's fishman figure and cut out the size that the fishman could wear.

Yang Yi looked in the mirror and looked at the weird fishman wearing a dress in the mirror. He didn't want to recognize himself.

"Brother Poseidon is so handsome, you are the most handsome fishman I have ever seen." Lu Xiaoming flattered him, "It seems that something is missing. Do you want to buy another pair of sunglasses?"

"Forget it, why wear sunglasses at night." Yang Yi said.

"To be handsome." Lu Xiaoming said.

In the end, Yang Yi rejected Lu Xiaoming's suggestion to buy sunglasses again. After leaving the tailor shop, the two drove the goblin modified sports car directly to the party venue.

The two wasted some time buying dresses, and when they arrived at the party venue, the revelry had already begun.

Goblin parties are nothing more than eating and drinking, singing and dancing, drunk fights and fireworks.

Yang Yi and Lu Xiaoming were like fish in water and quickly integrated into it.

Yang Yi observed and found that it was not only goblins who attended the party, but also orcs, trolls, tauren, undead and ogres. He even saw a blood elf, a boar and two kobolds.

With so many races mixed together, Yang Yi, a fish man, did not look so abrupt.

"People with potion bottle tattoos and people wearing crossed mace emblems, you'd better stay away from them." Lu Xiaoming said to Yang Yi while busy drinking with a female goblin.

"Who are they?" Yang Yi asked.

"They are members of the Dark Gold Cult and the Dirty Hands, the two largest criminal gangs in Exile Port, ruling the streets and alleys here. It is said that only branches of these two gangs are active in Exile Port, and their base is in Gadgetzan." Lu Xiaoming said.

"Does Gazlowe not care about these criminal gangs?" Yang Yi asked.

"Hush." ​​Lu Xiaoming made a silent gesture, "I heard that they helped Gazlowe to establish Exile Port, so Gazlowe has always tolerated them."

A prosperous trading port like Exile Port must be a mixed bag. Yang Yi was not surprised by the existence of these gangs, but he did not expect that these gangs would have such a great influence.

Soon after, the party reached its climax, and the manager Gazlowe made a brilliant appearance.

Gazlowe was wearing a sexy red gift, holding a pipe in his mouth, and looked like a local tyrant.

Tonight's party was actually held to celebrate the completion of the Exile Port Pier Commercial Street.

Those who have long coveted the dock commercial street want to take this opportunity to discuss with Gazlowe how to divide the benefits.

After Gazlowe appeared, people came forward to toast.

After the gang leaders, merchant ship captains and traders toasted and talked with Gazlowe one by one, it was Yang Yi and Lu Xiaoming's turn.

"Dear Mayor Gazlowe, this is Poseidon, the mayor of Ratchet Town. The oil extraction contract of Dead Water Oasis was signed with Ratchet Town." Lu Xiaoming introduced.

"Aha, you are here, Mayor Poseidon." Gazlowe nodded to Yang Yi.

"Hello, respected Mayor Gazlowe." Yang Yi nodded and said straight to the point: "I need the mayor's help with something."

"People who want my help line up every day, but it's not free." Gazlowe took a puff of his cigarette and blew out a beautiful smoke ring.

Yang Yi nodded, "It's reasonable to pay for work."

"I'm glad to meet a smart person. Tell me what you want me to do for you." Gazlowe smiled.

"Two little murlocs followed the merchant ship to Exile Port. I want to find his whereabouts." Yang Yi said.

"If you want to find goblins in Exile Port, it may be a bit troublesome, but it's much easier to find murlocs. As long as the murloc you are looking for is still in Exile Port, you can find him before dark tomorrow." Gazlowe said confidently.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Lu Xiaoming quickly raised his glass: "That's great, let's toast Mayor Gazlowe together."

"Thank you, Mayor." Yang Yi also raised his glass.

After Yang Yi toasted, he took out two letters of introduction and handed them to Gazlowe.

"Ah, why didn't you take out the letters of introduction earlier." Gazlowe was a little surprised after reading the letters of introduction, especially one of which was written by Baine, the son of the Tauren Chieftain.

"Human relations are human relations, and business is business, right?" Yang Yi laughed.

"Ha, you are really interesting." Gazlowe also grinned.

"Besides, I need to purchase some things, which are not very common." Yang Yi said and handed Jagu's list to Gazlowe.

"I can get you almost everything you want, as long as you can pay." Gazlowe said after reading the list.

"I also want to get a trade license for Ratchet Town." Yang Yi said.

Gazlowe glanced at Yang Yi, the mayor of the fish town, and took out a small bag of tobacco. While filling his pipe, he said to Yang Yi: "It's the same as before, as long as you are sure you can pay."
