The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Brudhaven, a small city on the east coast not far from Gotham, is also on the coastline. It has a completely different climate from Gotham, and it can even be said to be completely opposite. It is sunny all year round, with sunshine hours and sunshine intensity. Among all the cities on the east coast, it is also among the best.

Originally, this place could be developed into a very good tourist city, but because of its relatively small land area, there are many hilly and mountainous areas around it, the coastline is not long enough, and the supporting facilities in the city are not enough to meet the needs of a large number of tourists.

If it was closer to the metropolis, it might have developed a long time ago, because if it is within half an hour's drive from the metropolis, tourists can enter the metropolis to meet some accommodation and food needs.

However, no tourist is brave enough to go deep into Gotham for accommodation, and tourists who come to seaside cities want to go to the beach to bask in the sun. The rainy weather in Gotham will ruin their good mood for the day. Therefore, the development of Brudhaven has been tepid.

But since Gotham City Mayor Roy’s phone speech, people’s prejudice against Gotham has been partially improved, that is, the high crime rate and chaos here are actually caused by the government’s inaction, and there are also many curious backpackers. I want to come here to observe, and their foothold is Bludhaven.

In addition, the development of Gotham's logistics industry has led to a surge in the number of workers. Many people who want to come here to try their luck will choose Bludhaven as an outpost, because it takes only 20 minutes to drive to Gotham. If Gotham's If life doesn't satisfy them, they can turn around and leave.

After all, Gotham's prices and rents are no joke. Although the people here are bad, they are not poor. In other words, they are poor in the circulation system of Gotham City, but if they are taken out, they will It can be regarded as the subsistence class.

A comparison can be made. Generally speaking, the ordinary gangsters who guard the gates of nightclubs in Gotham belong to the lower-income group in Gotham, but if they come to Bludhaven, they will become representative of a well-off life.

Some people may ask, so is it not good for them to live in Bludhaven? Why fight and kill among gangsters?

But not only are they gangsters, their fathers, mothers, grandparents are gangsters, all their relationships are maintained in this system, it is difficult to make changes, if the gangsters don’t agree, they can’t escape , otherwise, the shark's next meal will be there.

In addition, the good income of Gotham gangsters is not because they have the skills to survive or have a good educational background. The gangsters have no books or skills. After they leave the Gotham system, it is impossible for them Find a job with such a high salary.

This is a problem that every resident of a high-income, high-price area will encounter when moving to a low-income, low-price area. They want to obtain low prices while paying high wages, but low-price areas often do not have high wages. Moreover, the supporting facilities are insufficient, so they would rather endure such high prices than move to areas with low prices.

This is why Bludhaven, as a neighboring city of Gotham, has a very good security situation.

To put it bluntly, the residents of Gotham don’t like this place at all. After working hard for a month, they may not earn as much as working for the gangsters in Gotham for a week. Some things have to be bought in Gotham, so why not just live in Gotham? The locals are at least familiar with the road, and it is safer.

Many backpackers who came to Brudhaven commented that this is the paradise closest to hell. Whether it is climate, scenery or humanities, Brudhaven is not inferior to those tourist cities on the east coast.

Similarly, unlike a bustling metropolis like Columbia, Bludhaven is a small town with a slow pace of life and everyone is very leisurely, thanks to the rich fishing on the east coast.

The industrial structure here is also dominated by fishing wharfs, seafood processing, export and logistics industries. There are three wharfs in the whole town, except for one of which is relatively large due to its relatively late construction, the other two are Established by Europeans during the colonial period, it is relatively old now.

Sir, you may not have heard of this pier. It broke down about three or four years ago. The mayor said there was no need to repair it, and then turned it into a fishing pier. A man in overalls , The little boy wearing a fisherman hat ran to the wooden platform of the pier with a da da da, pointed to the front and said to Schiller behind him.

Look, have you seen those small boats? It is an experience boat specially prepared for tourists. Tourists can go there to experience shallow sea fishing. The fishermen who row the boats will teach them the most basic shallow sea fishing skills, and they can use fishing rods. You can also experience fishing nets.”

For five dollars you can take away the fattest fish of them all, and if you'd like to give me another fifty cents, I'll take you to the restaurant next door, where the owner's stew and fish soup are really good .”

The price of five dollars is too expensive. I don't like fish very much. Of course, if it can be cheaper, I would like to experience it. Schiller also stepped onto the wooden platform of the pier and looked into the distance. A large fishing boat, I have to admit, this is still very distinctive.

Generally speaking, if you want to fish in the sea, the cost is quite high. At least the families who come on vacation can’t afford to rent a fishing boat, which is something only rich people will play.

The tourism project launched by Brudhaven is a bit like a simple beggar version. The fishing boat is an ordinary wooden boat with a motor, and the fishermen on the boat are also local fishermen. It's not a high-end product, and some are a little tattered.

But what can be seen is that almost every fishing boat is carrying tourists, and they are having a good time, even if the speed of this kind of fishing boat is far from being called trawling, and the netting is all based on luck. Not many fish came down, but most tourists, especially those families, had a good time.

Schiller began to admire the wisdom of Mayor Bludhaven. You must know that in this era, most of the tourism industry is prepared for the rich. Many tourist cities have not changed their minds, and the projects they provide are not close enough to the people. .

In most seaside tourist cities, except for the free use of the beach, any item entering the sea is charged a high fee, such as sea fishing, diving and so on.

Well, sir, three dollars, all right?

I can give you two dollars and fifty cents at most. Of course, I can give you an extra fifty cents as a tip, and treat you as a treat. Schiller smiled, stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of the little tour guide boy, and said, Go and find me a boat.

The little boy cheered, ran down the pier, and came to the seaside. After a while, he found a boat for Schiller, and he ran to Schiller to show off: Sir, I bet there will never be anyone Like me, I can find a boat that suits your heart!

You said before that you are a university professor, so you should be able to chat with young people better, but most of the fishermen here are not young. Sometimes, I also have a headache because of their stubborn temper. I'm afraid you won't be able to chat. Come, so I found the only younger fisherman here...

Come here, Vikings, this is Professor Rodriguez, my new client, a very generous university professor, he wants to experience it on his fishing boat, get him a good fish, and I'll treat you to dinner later.

As soon as Schiller turned his head, he saw the man that the little boy called out. He was naked from the upper body and wore a pair of shorts on the lower body, revealing a sculpture-like body. The beard on the horns is connected, but there is no beard on the chin, which looks arrogant and wild.

He first looked at Schiller with those hawk-like eyes, then moved his body to the side, leaving a space for Schiller, pointed at his own boat, and said, Come on.

Schiller looked down at his feet. At this time, he was still standing on the beach, and the fishing boat was floating in the sea, and it was at least three meters away from him. He opened his mouth and asked, How to get on?

The little tour guide boy next to him slapped his forehead, and shouted at the man, Why did you forget again?! Where is the ladder for citations? What Old Wieland told you before, the rules for treating tourists, you don't know. forget?

As if just remembering, the man on the boat took a plank from the boat, and after anchoring the boat, put the plank down, and Schiller walked up the plank.

Schiller turned around and waved to the little tour guide boy, feeling the boat under his feet began to shake, the blond man seemed a little silent, Schiller walked to the side of the boat curiously, at this moment the man hummed and said : Don't keep staring at the sea, you will get seasick.

Schiller slowly looked away and asked him, I heard from my tour guide that your name is Viking? Is this your nickname?

Yes, but I don't like it very much. I'm not a pirate. The Viking walked to the side of the cabin and began to organize his tools. He asked, Do you want to use a fishing rod or a trawling net?

Go fishing first, can you help me find a good fishing spot? Schiller said, and the Viking squatted down and began to arrange the fishing line and rod. At that time, there are more people now, and all the good fishing spots have been occupied. I know a few other good fishing spots...

Oh, I see. If I catch a good catch today, I'd be more than happy to give half the tip. Schiller walked up and squatted down, looking at the fishing rods of different lengths and said.

No, I don't want a tip, I just want to say that those fishing spots are more troublesome, and you may need better fishing skills.

The Vikings began to adjust the fishing line, but Schiller stood up and looked towards the sea. Just as the Vikings said, almost all places on the sea are now occupied by fishing boats, and the place where the Vikings are now advancing direction, without any boat.

My fishing skills are not good, but they're not bad either. We can go and try. If we really can't catch them, then forget it. I don't like fish very much anyway. Schiller shrugged, looking easy to talk Instead, the Viking raised his head and looked at him in surprise, and the Viking asked proactively:

Are you a university professor? What university do you teach at?

Gotham University.

The fishing line in the Viking's hand became a mess.
