Chapter 1859 The Fight Is On!

"What? Flights will be available for purchase on the 15th?" "Have you heard? The first wave of tickets will be available for purchase next week!" "Bahahahahahaha~.... Now I can make history by being one of the first people to fly in the sky! I wonder if my picture will be taken on that day."
"Hmph! Just you? If you can make history, that will be the day pigs fly!!!" "Mommy, mommy! Can we fly? The first flight leaves May 20th. By that time, it'll be summer holidays… Can we, can we, please? I promise I won't ask for anything else ever again." "Heavens, the first flights are ready for purchase already? It seems it is time for my old bones to stretch about a little. Why, it has been 2 whole years since I've left Baymard's rims… It seems it is time to see the world once again…. Honey, how about we make a trip to Carona?"
(^_^)
One by one, several people spread the word like wildfire, chirping away and hastily making plans for the upcoming Airport grand opening. Many people's hearts pound3d so loudly their faces turned red with excitement and expectation for what was to come. Someone had tears in their eyes, feeling truly grateful to be alive right now. They had their families on their sides, enough to eat, a great Monarch, and a peaceful environment that kept developing at an astounding pace. Who knew that they… they who used to be so thin like twigs would not only get buffed up from good eating but would also get the rare opportunity to rise to the skies too? If someone had told them years back that they would ever go to the skies in this life, they would have definitely laughed back and thought the person was joking with them. Many children now jumped around their parents, older siblings, grandparents and even great-grandparents with bubbling excitement. Family trip! Family trip! The children were very happy, feeling that the trip was in some way, a reward for them after finishing the semester. (^π^)
Understand that this April, the semester's classes officially end, and then a week later, they officially begin the Semester's final examinations. So yes… For some, this trip was indeed a great way to kick-start the summer holidays. Of course the summer holiday starts several weeks before the air travel officially begins, but still… It was still a great way to begin the summer. Oops… they got so excited that they almost forgot the most important thing to do right now. "Quickly, Old Khiger, get your old butt out of your chair and meet me down at the Grand Baymardian Central Mall in District D." "Baymard's largest mall?" "Wait! Wait! Wait! I just thought of something. Most people will definitely go to the 2 newly opened Flight Booking centers in the Mall. So instead, meet me on 24 Oakville street in District D. There's one there that I think many people won't really think of first." With that, Miguel hung up the call, placing the phone back on its receiver attached to the wall. Thankfully, he already took his bath first thing after waking.
Now, it didn't take very long for him to appear outside the hotel already fully dressed. Sometimes Miguel found it amazing how much more attentive he was to his appearance. He, Miguel, used to be a very poor farmer in Arcadina. In a year, he took his bath at most 3 times…. Most of those times were in Summer. How dare he risk taking a bath and falling ill in the already icy and chilly seasons? Is he insane? What's more, who has firewood to waste on boiling water just for bathing? Again, do you know how precious the stream water they carry and store in their homes were? In short, even if they wished to collect snow and burn it for bathing, it just seems like a waste of good firewood they have struggled to gather for the winter and even springtime. So only in a warm season like summer, would you see people run across the beautiful luscious fields and then take baths in the streams surrounded by nature. That said, they rarely cared about their appearance. Well, they did care a bit, since one must be able to somewhat see someone's appearance to be able to judge if they were good-looking or not. But using Baymard's products was a game changer and an eye opener to them. It was only after using Baymard's soaps and products did they feel truly embarrassed by all the dark residues leaving their bodies. After bathing in the streams, they always thought they emerged cleaner in the past. But only after using Baymard's soaps did they know that even their former 'clean' selves were still ridiculously dirty. .
Like that, the race was on. Baymard once again entered a whirlpool of chaos, as people quickly took to try streets, honking and tapping their anxious feet away. "Come on, Grandma, drive already! The light is GREEN!" "Oh my ancestors! What are you? A beginner? Even ants can move faster than you!!" "Dammit! Can you move faster, Grandpa?!!"
Peep! Peep!
Today was Saturday, and the streets were rowdy with the sudden explosive news in the air. The many car radio channels also reported the matter, and even the TV news highlighted the news too. Even though today wasn't the day when the ticket purchase would be available people still swarmed towards the Flight Centers to get more information. Sure enough, like Miguel guessed, not many people showed up in the Flight Centre he was aiming for. Miguel was surprised that he arrived 2 minutes later than his buddy Khiger. Khiger was by his car hurrying him over, "You bastard! How can you still arrive later than the person you make an appointment with? Hurry! It's getting brutal in there!"
"Coming!!" Bam! Miguel closed the door of his rented vehicle, pressing the locked bottom on his key Fob. Hey, don't forget that only Treaty-signed Empires can rent and drive vehicles in Baymard. From Farmer to merchant. Miguel, as a registered Merchant in the Merchant Guild Association, had 101 reasons why he wanted first hand information on these flights, their prices and other vital information. Miguel stared at the jungle of people and already understood the drill. Headband, check! Protective long sleeves, Check! Sport shoes, check! Hair tied in a bun, Double check. Now ready… steady… Go!!!!
The fight was on.
