Chapter 262: Night Attack
Chen Haoran looked at these displayed slaves, his eyes stayed on a few people with proud expressions among the slaves, and analyzed that these slaves with different temperaments were obviously officers, and now they were slave soldiers who were sold in the system.
This discovery made Chen Haoran happy, so that the slaves of the establishment could be bought and immediately formed into an army, and there was a lot of trouble for himself, so he was ready to raise his hand to participate in the auction.
But at this moment, Job-Boniface in the crowd raised his arms and shouted, "100 gold coins in a group, all of them!" I'm Job-Boniface of the Koya Business Alliance. ”
Chen Haoran, who was about to raise his hand, was stunned for a moment, and then a female voice shouted: "A group of 200 gold coins, all of them! I am Muriel Noble of the Koya Noble Alliance!"
As far as I could see, it was Muriel Noble, who had come to visit before.
At first sight, it was these two people who shouted the price, and directly doubled the reserve price ten times or twenty times, and all the people present who originally intended to bid were waiting.
Chen Haoran pursed his lips and muttered: "Do they have any brains to make the competition so obvious? Or do you want to let everyone understand in this way that Keya Island has been divided into two forces, so that the grass on the wall will start to stand in line?"
Jobe Boniface didn't shout immediately, but muttered to each other for a while with the bigwigs of the business alliance around him, and then raised his arms again: "300 gold coins in a group!"
Muriel Noble proudly raised his hand: "400 gold coins in a set!"
"500 gold coins!" cried out Jobe Boniface without stopping.
Everyone was frightened by this bold bidding, and the gold coins were added by hundreds!
However, I saw her covering her face with a fan and said, "I'm sorry, our noble alliance really can't afford the price of 50 gold coins a slave, so let's give it to your business alliance." ”
The others looked disappointed, after all, it had only been a few rounds of competition, and the price had only reached the position of a slave with 50 gold coins, which was not fierce enough.
Chen Haoran raised his eyebrows, because none of the aristocratic representatives on Muriel Noble's side looked like they had failed, but looked at the people on the side of the business alliance calmly.
On the Business League side, including Job Boniface, they all stood on their toes as if they had won some big victory.
The knight at the bow of the slave carrier saw that the auction was over, turned around and disappeared, and the person in charge of the slave carrier on the dock naturally carried out the slave transfer with the business alliance with a smile on his face.
Chen Haoran shook his head, and continued to return to the coolie field with four escorts, and with the help of intermediaries, recruited 50 coolies who looked young and honest, recruited in the name of recruiting servants for his own estate.
Let the two guards take these young coolies towards the manor, and take the other two coolies to purchase a batch of food, pots and pans, tents, and uniform clothing, as well as a batch of weapons, spears, crossbows, leather armor, everything, and then escort dozens of carriages to their estate.
The manor that Chen Haoran bought was very large, and with the addition of the 50 coolies, there was no shortage of manpower, and after a busy while, more than a dozen tents were set up, and clothes, pots and pans were distributed, and suddenly the originally quiet manor became lively.
Chen Haoran was too lazy to take care of the housekeeper who wanted to talk and stopped, and let him be responsible for managing the lives of the 50 coolies.
Then he began to draw the charts in the manor's study, preparing to give the first mate of his two ships tomorrow as a reference, and let them be in charge of the trading on a fixed route, while he stayed at the manor to practice the 50 coolies.
When night fell, Chen Haoran yawned and went to his bedroom to rest.
Walking into the bedroom, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows, the five rabbits and the two ha who had disappeared for a day were occupying their bedrooms at the moment. The five rabbits fell asleep one in the east and one in the west, but Erha was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.
Chen Haoran didn't bother to drive Erha out of bed, and went to bed and pulled the quilt to sleep by himself.
It's just that he fell asleep for a while, and was awakened by the familiar feeling of the flesh paw on his face, Chen Haoran couldn't help but grab the erha on the side, and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you doing hair?! Don't disturb me when you wake up!"
"Woo!" Erha roared under his breath.
I don't know why, Chen Haoran felt the seriousness in Erha's scream, and couldn't help asking, "Someone invaded?" Feeling Erha nodding violently, he immediately got up, put on his clothes, pants, shoes and socks in the dark, carried two magic pistols, and quietly touched towards the balcony.
Erha Sweet Vinegar also quietly jumped out of bed, and followed Chen Haoran quietly leaning against the balcony glass door to look out.
It was late at night, but the moon's glow was not bad, and you could faintly see the scene outside the manor.
I don't know if it's because I haven't explained or I'm not used to it, there is no one patrolling the manor, and there can still be a faint snoring sound from the dozen or so tents not far from the main house, and it is obvious that the coolies who have eaten and drunk for a while are sleeping happily.
When he was puzzled, he suddenly saw a sound of footsteps coming from afar, and then he saw the sword light and sword shadow flickering, and then nearly a hundred black shadows appeared in the line of sight.
The nearly 100 militants were obviously strictly disciplined, and all marched silently, and with a wave of the hand of a leader, they quietly divided into two dozen people and went to the tent area where the coolies lived.
Chen Haoran's memory is very good, and after seeing the leader who waved his hand to command, he couldn't help but pouted and muttered: "Damn, it seems that you don't have to think about standing in line." It's just that the task given by Heilan can't be completed. ”
He said this because the leader who waved his hand was the slave at the noon dock, and Chen Haoran saw that this was the officer of the slave soldier at that time, so he wanted to participate in the auction, and now he brought the army to his manor.
The slave soldiers were bought by the commercial alliance, and these were obviously slave soldiers, since they came to attack them, it was naturally the commercial alliance that sold themselves.
As for selling himself for Mao, it is very simple, he has only offended Baron Dirks and the unknown god force on this island, and this can be combined into one force.
This force is on the side of the business alliance, so it's normal for them to come to the door to retaliate.
There is another possibility, that is, he offended the people behind the slave ship, and the people behind the slave ship offered a price that the business alliance was unwilling to refuse.
Either way, anyway, the business alliance sold itself, and he could only stand on the side of the noble alliance.
Chen Haoran, who had pulled off the magic gun insurance, suddenly grinned: Maybe there is another way to complete Heilan's task.
