Through Hu Yi's introduction, Zhou Rui learned that the ghost hunting group where Hu Yi and the nine of them belonged was established by a fox clan rich man in the Black Bear Empire.

The nine of them were all adopted by the rich fox clan since they were children, and they began to train extremely cruelly since they were children.

According to what Fox Yi said, the total number of human orphans who were adopted by the rich fox clan with the nine of them may have exceeded three hundred, but in the end, only the nine of them were left who could survive through cruel training.

Although the Ghost Hunting Group is called a hunting group, hunting fierce beasts is just a side business, and the main task of the Ghost Hunting Group is to help the fox rich man do some shady things, such as assassinating business opponents.

Later, the fox rich man offended a nobleman of the Black Bear Empire, and in the end, not only was the family property swallowed by the nobles, but the fox rich man himself and his family also died tragically in prison.

The nine of them, as the henchmen of the rich fox clan, were also implicated, and were demoted to slavery by the nobles of the Black Bear Empire and sold to merchants engaged in slave trading.

In the end, after several tosses, Hu Yi and the others came to Ganyang City and were sent to tonight's auction.

The four high-level warriors of the bear half-blood, whose names are Xiong Da, Xiong Er, Xiong San, and Xiong Si, are somewhat similar to the experiences of Hu Yi and the others.

Xiong Da and their four brothers were also adopted by a fox clan rich man in the Black Bear Empire since they were children, and they have also received quite strict training since they were children, of course, this rich man is not the other rich man, and the fox clan rich man who adopted fox Yi and others is not the same person.

When Xiong Da and his four brothers grew up, they became the personal bodyguards of the fox rich man who adopted them.

And because of his huge wealth, this rich man of the fox clan was targeted by a nobleman of the Black Bear Empire, and finally ended up with a ruined family.

Xiong Da and his four brothers were also implicated and reduced to slavery.

Coincidentally, the nobleman who caused the two fox rich families to be ruined turned out to be the same person.

In addition, according to Xiong Da, the four brothers not only practiced the physical skills of the beast warriors, but also practiced the exercises of human warriors, which can be regarded as both internal and external cultivation.

Therefore, the strength of the four brothers far exceeds that of ordinary high-level warriors or high-level martial artists.

After listening to the situation of Hu Yi and Xiong Da, Zhou Rui pondered for a moment, and then put the slave contract of the thirteen of them on the table.

"I don't really value this, this piece of paper doesn't mean anything!

Presumably, it doesn't have much binding force on you.

If the thirteen of you are willing to stay by my side and stay in our Ganyang Zhou family, I will not regard you as slaves, and you will all be my Zhou Rui's brothers in the future!

Glory and wealth, you are indispensable!

If you don't want to stay, you can take this piece of paper and leave now, and you can go anywhere in the world. ”

To be honest, of course Zhou Rui was unwilling to let these thirteen people go, but Zhou Rui didn't think that with a slave contract that the law would not recognize in the Han and Tang Empires, he could really control these thirteen people.

The reason why he generously let Fox Yi and Xiong Da stay was just playing a trick to get away with his own hands and buy people's hearts.

Of course, Zhou Rui is also a little worried that he will get away with it, in case Hu Yi and Xiong Da really want to slap their butts and leave, Zhou Rui will have no place to cry.

So at this time, although Zhou Rui was very calm on the surface, he was actually nervous to death.

I came according to the plot in the movie, so I shouldn't be able to mess up!

Xiong San whispered a word to Xiong Da at this time, so that Zhou Rui collapsed directly.

"Big brother, can we go back to the Black Bear Empire and look for our father and mother?"

Fortunately, Xiong sighed and said, "The Black Bear Empire is so big, where can we find it!"

And back to the Black Bear Empire, if you don't get our four brothers to be arrested again. ”

At this time, Hu Yi suddenly knelt on one knee in front of Zhou Rui, "Lord...... Major General, I have been an orphan since I was a child, and if I don't give up on Major General today, I am willing to die for the Major General in this life! ”

Next, like dominoes, the eight of them, Fox 2 and Fox 3, also knelt down on one knee in front of Zhou Rui and shouted the oath of "I am willing to die for the young general in this life".

The four brothers of Xiong also reacted at this time, and they all knelt on one knee, expressing their willingness to follow Zhou Rui in the future.

Zhou Rui's mood is really like a roller coaster, fortunately, fortunately, he was not slapped in the face in the end.

"Brothers, please get up! Hurry up, please!

Ha ha! In the future, we will be brothers, but don't kneel down at every turn.

Black Tiger, Leopard, hurry up to the waiters of the hotel and ask them to prepare wine and food immediately.

I'm so happy to have met so many brothers today, and I have to get drunk with my brothers! ”

The four future grandmaster-level bodyguards, plus several generals of the "Ghost Shadow", all fell into the hands of Zhou Rui, and the price was only 1.07 million silver coins.

Of course Zhou Rui was happy to pick up such a leak.

As for the thirteen slave contracts, Zhou Rui reluctantly put them away under the persuasion of Hu Yi, Xiong Da and others.

However, Zhou Rui said that if anyone is unhappy in Zhou's house, they can come to him at any time to ask for a slave contract and leave with a slave contract.

The next morning, in the bedroom where Zhou Xiaozheng was in the Zhou Mansion, the housekeeper Zhou Fu reported to Zhou Xiaozheng what Zhou Rui did at the auction last night.

Even Zhou Rui's means of buying people's hearts, the housekeeper Zhou Fu actually knew about it and reported it to Zhou Xiaozheng.

Zhou Xiaozheng said with a wry smile: "That stinky boy, where did he get so many silver bricks, could it be that he really found a big treasure?" ”

After a pause, Zhou Xiaozheng continued: "There are some things that we have to think about for Xiao Rui.

The origin of the four bear half-blood warriors and the nine martial artists last night, check as much as possible, and don't leave any hidden dangers by Xiao Rui's side. ”

"Yes, sir, I'll arrange for someone to investigate."

"It's a pity that Xiao Rui is still young and not mature enough.

If we didn't buy those thirteen slaves last night, but bought the production equipment of the breech single-shot rifle and the supporting bullet production line, then our Zhou family would have gone to another level in Ganyang City, and even in the entire Fengwu Town. ”

Zhou Fu hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, the second young master may not be able to look down on the production equipment and supporting bullet production line of the breech single-shot rifle.

There is one thing that I haven't had time to tell the old man, I don't know where the second young master came from, he bought 10,000 repeating rifles and 60 million rounds of ammunition, and now these repeating rifles and bullets are stacked in the material warehouse of the military port.

In addition, Master Rong said on the phone that the 10,000 repeating rifles purchased by the Second Young Master have very good performance, and may even be better than several standard repeating rifles equipped by the six beast countries. ”

"What? 10,000 repeating rifles and 60 million rounds?

Or better than several standard repeater rifles in the six orc countries?

That's impossible! In addition to the six orc nations, where else can Xiao Rui buy a repeating rifle? ”

"Master Rong also asked the second young master, and the second young master just said that he bought it from a special channel."

Zhou Xiaozheng pondered for a while, "Since Xiao Rui is unwilling to say, we don't need to inquire."

Anyway, now that our Zhou family is in power, Xiao Rui is in power, so he can toss as much as he wants!

The production equipment and bullet production line of the breech single-shot rifle, Xiao Rui really didn't like it! ”

After a pause, Zhou Xiaozheng continued: "Ah Fu, now that the coastal defense fleet has received an all-steel battleship and two armored cruisers, the garrison brigade will be expanded into four infantry regiments with a strength of more than three thousand people.

I don't think the Cui family will see the power of our Zhou family swell, and I think it's time to activate the inside line that was planted in the Cui family. ”

"Yes, sir, I see."
