In the face of the hooked nose's rebuke, Kay's face flushed with anger, and he said with a crying voice: "I have already paid the wages! 500 livres for two days, the price set by the lord! In fact, we collected it in a day and a half. ”

Eagle Hook Nose was stunned for a moment, he thought that the little girl was begging these sugarcane customers to work first and then collect money, but it didn't matter, the person who wanted to rectify that person would not escape from his palm, as for Eagle Hook Nose himself, as long as he did things well, the benefits would not be less.

Little girl, can you blame yourself for your bad life!

Hooknose pulled a scythe from behind his waist and walked towards Kay, Jacques became nervous and tried to stop in front of the little girl, but was pulled by Lily, who was beside him with her head down.

Hooknose walked past Kay, squinted at the frightened little girl, walked over to the sugar cane pile, cut off the bottom of a cane, cut off another section, and walked back to the carriage to discuss with a few other factory employees who were driving.

After discussing for a while, Hooknose walked back and threw the sugarcane at Kayi's feet, saying, "Your sugarcane has smut, and the factory can't collect it, so in order to prevent smut from spreading to other sugarcane fields, we will confiscate it and destroy it centrally." ”

Jacques next to him was angry, it wasn't that he wanted to eavesdrop, it was really that these people didn't have any scruples when they spoke, as transcendentals, at such a distance of ten or so meters, they could hear everything clearly, isn't it that the foreman of your sugar cane factory wants to deal with little Kay?

This time, Jacques ignored Lily's obstruction and said loudly, "Smut? Are you talking nonsense when you open your eyes? The leaves of these sugar canes are all green! What's the matter? You are very capable of bullying an orphan girl?"

Hooknose was in a hurry, but he was not in a hurry, and a sugarcane merchant said, "You have all been paid, have you? ”

Jacques didn't want to be too verbose with him, so he stooped down and picked up the piece of sugar cane that had fallen at Kay's feet, and with a wave of his hand, the sugar cane flew towards the hooked nose with a cracking sound, grazing his feet and plunging into the road, and all the sugar cane at the length of his forearm fell into the ground.

"If you don't want to take it, get out, don't think about robbing it! Tell your foreman what to do, don't make things too ugly, people are doing it, and the sky is watching. ”

Jacques showed his hand, revealing the identity of the transcendent.

Hooknose knew that this time the job was messed up! He didn't dare to say anything in the face of the transcendental, so he hurriedly got into the car and turned around and returned to the town.

The other sugarcane guests said goodbye to Kay and left, leaving Lily and Jacques with the little girl.

Lily threw a reproachful look, but didn't say much, squatted down beside Kayi, combed her sweat-soaked hair with her hands, and said, "Sister Kay, come with us to Tavaré, if they don't collect these sugar canes, they can sell them to other sugar cane farmers, if no one dares to collect them, I will let your brother Jacques buy them all." How much is this sugar cane worth?"

Kay shook his head and said, "You've already given a lot of money, I can't ask for your money, and you and Brother Jacques can't take them with you if they buy them." ”

Lily asked in a different way, "Then how much is the rent that your family owes to the lord?"

"My house has a total of 5 hectares of land, and each hectare is 12 silver coins a year. ”

Yes, 60 silver coins, which is really not much money in the past, but now Lily and Jacques have very little money. However, the ground rent here is much higher than the land rent of 4-6 silver coins per hectare in the port of Moussey.

Seeing the young lady's embarrassed face, Kay also knew that this was not a small amount of money, and everything needed to rely on the sugar cane that was now piled up on the side of the road.

Kay said, "Brother and sister, can you please take care of these sugar canes?" I will go to the people in the village and ask who is willing to accept these sugar canes. ”

Jacques Xin said, this side of the matter spread, let's not say that someone dares to buy it, even if you dare to buy it, you didn't send it to someone to be slaughtered, but looking at the little girl's firm eyes, it was not good to hit her, so he let him go.

Liliac sat on the side of the road against the sugar cane, Jacques broke a section of sugar cane, and then in a few strokes, he tore the purple skin, revealing the sugar cane core containing the juice, handed it to Lily, and said, "I know I was a little impulsive just now, and it is really dangerous to reveal my identity now, I will pay attention to it next time." ”

Lily took the sugar cane and said, "It's okay, I'm also angry about bullying a little girl like this, it's a big deal that we won't sit on this boat, and go north to the next town." ”

Take a bite and it's so sweet!

Jacques peeled a piece of sugar cane for himself, and said, "What if we leave Kay? Take an ordinary person on a journey of hundreds of miles? This is not the same as the Empire, far from the town is the area of the foreign beasts."

The only safe route to the city of Tavare is by sea.

If I really want to go, I have a bold idea to get a vote and then go, hehe. ”

Lily gave Jacques a brain break!

Uh, here we go again! Jacques regained a familiar feeling, and Lily didn't seem to have knocked herself on the head again after the age of fourteen.

Pain!

"Last time we got a vote, we lost 8,000 silver coins, and we were chased and intercepted, what do you want to lose this time?"

"Then watch Kay being bullied?"

"Let's wait and see, there are still 4 days to go. Take a step and take a look. ”

......

Hooknose ran back to the factory and hurried to the foreman's office to report the news.

Patrick, the foreman, was a middle-aged man with dark hair, also of mixed race, wearing a shirt and suspenders, and did not look like a worker, but was a common upstart businessman.

After listening to Eagle Hooknose's report, he sent someone out to inquire about the situation, and did not reply until three o'clock in the afternoon.

They were two outsiders who lived in Kayi's house.

The transcendent is definitely not a sugarcane guest, and the identity is probably the kind that cannot be seen, depending on the age and means, the ordinary awakened.

Patrick sorted out the situation of his opponent, and with a plan in mind, he said to Hooknose, "Send someone to keep an eye on those two outsiders, and warn the others that I don't want anyone to interfere in my affairs." ”

Eagle Hook Nose felt that the time was just right, and said with a smile: "Boss, if you want this little girl, when those two outsiders leave, I will go and tie you up, the eldest young master has such a good relationship with you, I will definitely not mind......

Patrick slapped the back of the hooked nose on the back of the head and scolded: "Who wants this kind of little girl who doesn't have any hair, get out, do what I tell you, if the little girl wants to beg me, take her to me, you know? Get out!"

The hook-nosed horse's fart slapped on the horse's hooves, and walked out of the factory in a gray manner, muttering: "I like the tender ones, and I want to pretend to be high, and his family can still squeeze out a few drops ?......of oil?"

Patrick, who was standing at the window, watched Hooknose go away, and finally showed a worried look.

After planning for two years, but there were accidents one after another, is my luck so bad?

Could those two people have come for that thing too?

If those two short-lived ghosts didn't explain anything to the little girl and hung up like this, wouldn't I be busy in vain now?

No matter, let's take one step at a time!
