Chapter 587: Buying a Slave Warrior

"Oh! That's right! At this time, I saw Alfred say with joy on his face: "Haha! This is really good news, and I'm sure our mayor will be very happy to hear it. ”

After finishing speaking, he also hurriedly and respectfully invited Ye Feng in, and at the same time, he also waved his hand to the guards very casually, and then these guards also left here with great discernment.

After inviting Nightblanc to a wooden table full of fruit and wine glasses, Alfred also went upstairs to inform the mayor after letting Nightblanc feel free.

And after Alfred's figure disappeared into the corner of the stairs, Yefeng also picked up the fruits on the table very casually and tasted them, but what made him feel helpless was that the taste of these fruits was actually not very good, and it could only be said that he could barely eat it.

But it's also a very normal thing to think about, after all, it's not an era where you can grow a lot of fruit by high-tech means like later generations, in this era, there are very few fruits to grow in terms of productivity and harvest, plus this is still a poor town, and it's already good for ordinary townspeople to be able to fill their stomachs, so they don't have to think about eating any fruit.

As the saying goes, the residents of Changhu Town, who live on the lake, only eat a small amount of flour obtained through trade, and most of the food is just various aquatic products in the lake.

At this time, before Ye Feng could eat for a while, he had already heard the creaking sound of heavy objects stomping on the floor from upstairs, and then, he saw a middle-aged fat man in a gorgeous aristocratic costume running down from the stairs.

With a bloated figure and faded blonde hair that seemed to have withered, only a glimmer of light from the corners of his eyes would make one think that he was not as stupid as he looked.

After seeing him hurriedly run in front of Ye Feng, he immediately couldn't wait to stretch out his fat palm and hold Ye Feng's hand vigorously, and said excitedly: "Listen to my subordinate Alfred say that you want to hire a warrior like me to help you exterminate a small tribe of half-orcs, right?" ”

Ye Feng resisted the urge to immediately pull out of the mayor's fat hands and forced a smile: "Yes! I wonder if Mayor Mare would agree to hire me a team of warriors? ”

"Of course! The price of employment is also easy to say! ”

"Haha!" I saw the mayor laugh heartily: "Everyone is human, so naturally they are watching and helping each other, not to mention that it is also the responsibility of every Middle-earth human to exterminate the evil orcs." ”

"But the population of our town is not very large, and the guards in the town are only more than a hundred."

"And because I've heard during this time that some hateful guys in the town seem to be plotting to plot a commotion, I can't hire these guards for you!"

"But ......"

Speaking of this, the mayor paused suddenly, and then deliberately lengthened his voice and said: "But I still have some slave warriors here, but I can sell them directly to you, so that after you eradicate the evil orc tribe, you can rely on these slave warriors to escort you back to your homeland." ”

"Wouldn't it be better to do that?"

"Oh! Slave warriors? Ye Feng was slightly surprised and asked curiously, "How many of these slave warriors are there?" What about combat effectiveness? ”

"Don't be all old, weak, sick and disabled!"

"Don't kill the orcs at that time, instead of sending rations to those orcs?"

"Haha!" I saw the mayor smile and comforted: "You naturally don't have to worry about this, these slave warriors are all composed of some rogues and robbers who dare to fight and kill, and they have all been tamed by us and are very obedient." ”

"As for the number of these slave warriors! There must be hundreds of them! ”

Speaking of this, the mayor turned directly to Alfred and asked, "How many slave warriors are there in our town?" ”

It is worth mentioning that although Alfred is very timid and afraid of things in the plot of the movie, he is good at using intrigue and scheming to shoot the villain.

However, being able to serve as the mayor's deputy, and most importantly, the mayor still has no ability at all, so apart from Alfred's character qualities, he must still have the ability to do things, otherwise, it would be impossible to manage this town on behalf of the mayor.

Therefore, when he was asked by the mayor about the exact number of slave warriors, he only thought for a few seconds before confidently replying, "There are 132 slave warriors in total, my lord!" ”

After hearing Alfred's answer, the mayor of the town also smiled and said to Yefeng, "You also heard, there are still 132 slave warriors in this town, and these slave warriors are still in their 30s, and if you are willing to buy these slave warriors." ”

"Then I can sell you a batch of obsolete old weapons cheaply, and arm these slave fighters for you."

"But don't think it's an old weapon that can't be used, you must know that even the old weapons we have eliminated are not comparable to those weapons that are possessed by backward orcs and excavated from an ancient battlefield!"

"And in addition to selling you weapons cheaply, I can also provide you with dozens of wooden shields for free."

"How? I don't know if you're willing to accept this deal! ”

"Uh-huh......!" Ye Feng nodded with a smile after pretending to think about it, and said, "Since you are so sincere, Mayor of the Town, then I might as well be respectful." ”

"So I don't know how much these slave warriors are worth?"

"Haha!" Hearing that Ye Feng agreed to buy these slave warriors, the mayor's heart almost blossomed, you know, the prisoners of these slave warriors don't know how much gold they have to consume every day just for rations, and if they don't give rations, then once the slave warriors who have no way to survive start a riot, even if they are unarmed, they will definitely bring huge losses to this poor and backward town.

Now it is possible to get rid of these slave warriors once and for all, and to exchange it for a large amount of wealth, and it is also possible to sell the old weapons that cannot be sold by the way.

So how can you not make the mayor happy!

In fact, among these slave fighters, there are also some townspeople who want to start a rebellion and plot to usurp the throne, and now after selling them, then the chances of rioting can be reduced accordingly.

Thinking of this, the mayor also waved his hand again and again: "It's not expensive!" Not expensive! ”

"I'll pay for a slave warrior...... Hmmm......"

"Twenty gold coins, oh! Wrong! Or is it better to make fifteen gold coins, as for weapons? I'll lose some money, and I'll make twenty gold coins with the slave soldiers. ”

"In this case, 132 slave warriors will have a total of 2,640 gold coins, so I'll be generous, you just need to give me 2,600 gold coins to round up in the end."

A human life is only fifteen gold coins, even if it is exchanged for the exchange rate of the next generation, it is only a few thousand yuan, like the Middle Ages, sure enough, human life is worthless!

However, Ye Feng only sighed in his heart for a while, and then he also stretched out his hands with a smile on his face and said, "Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”

As he spoke, he also pretended to reach into his clothes, but in fact, he took out a bag of gold coins from the storage space and put it on the table and said, "Oh! This is a deposit - 500 gold coins! ”

As for the rest of the money! Just wait until you bring all the slave warriors over, and then I'll settle all the rest of the money.

After quickly picking up the bag, the mayor couldn't wait to open the bag, and when he saw the brilliant gold coins in the bag, he was also happy and said happily: "No problem!" No problem! ”

"Alfred! You quickly arranged for the guards to bring all the slave soldiers who were imprisoned in the cells, and at the same time, you also asked Briga (the commander of the guards in Changhu Town) to take my warrant and go to the arsenal to receive 132 sets of old weapons and equipment, and at the same time give dozens of wooden shields to our friends. ”

"Yes, sir!" Alfred also bent down and said respectfully about the mayor's order, and then he hurriedly left the house with the warrant handed by the mayor.

At this time, after the mayor quickly put the bag full of gold coins into his arms, he also raised his wine glass to Yefeng: "Come! My friend! To celebrate our collaboration, let's have a big drink! ”

"This is the brandy I've been cherishing for a long time and can't drink it!"

"This is the same good wine sold by a caravan from the Brown Fields a few years ago!"

Subsequently, under the warm hospitality of the mayor, Ye Feng had no choice but to raise his wine glass to eat and drink, and in such a warm atmosphere, the friendship between the two also warmed up instantly.

And in such a friendly atmosphere, after seeing that the mayor of the town was already a little drunk, at this time, he also deliberately inadvertently asked the mayor if there was a team of dwarves entering Longlake Town during this time.

In response to this question, the mayor shook his head without thinking about it and said, "Dwarf? Ever since the dragon destroyed Riverdale, no dwarves have come here! ”

"Ahh Speaking of this, the mayor of the town couldn't help but fall into nostalgia and recalled: "I heard from my ancestors that the former Riverdale Town was a very prosperous city, and its port was full of merchant ships loaded with gems and weapons. ”

"Not an abandoned town by the lake right now."

"Ahh It was once the center of trade in the whole North! ”

"It's a pity that since the evil but powerful dragon came here to occupy the kingdom of the dwarves and expelled the dwarves, it has lost the exquisite weapons made by the dwarves and the exquisite gems produced from the rich minerals, and this place has become more and more backward."

"As for the dwarves! After so many years, I don't know where they are now! ”

"Anyway, since I can remember when I was a child, few dwarves have come here, and even if there are occasional dwarves, they just go to the gate of the lonely mountain, in order to remember the past glory of the dwarf clan."

"But there are fewer and fewer dwarves like this now, and there have been one after another before, but now they have been rare in recent years, and if I'm not mistaken, I haven't heard any reports from the guards of dwarves entering the town in this time."

"Oh! That's right! After hearing this, Ye Feng's eyes also flashed, and then he immediately continued to joke with the town mayor.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think in his heart that it seemed that the dwarves and his party should still be in Bard's house now, and they didn't go to the arsenal and be caught by the guards as in the plot.

After eating and drinking with the mayor for nearly an hour, Alfred finally returned.

At this time, the mayor, who was already obviously drunk and wanted to rest, ordered Alfred to handle the next transaction, and he himself went upstairs to rest.

Then, under the leadership of Alfred, Yefeng also came to a well-guarded house, dozens of guards in armor and armed with sharp weapons were orderly distributed around the house, and in front of the house, a row of more than a hundred ragged, unkempt beggar-like slaves stood there in a row.

Looking at this group of undisciplined slave warriors, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was really a rabble!

At this time, Alfred, after bringing Nightfeng to the slave warriors, shouted at the spiritless slave warriors, "You guys who should have been on the gallows! Congratulations! Now you have a new master for your lives! ”

"You also know our methods for slave warriors, don't think about running away and resisting, think about your family, once one of you runs away, resists, or riots, then all the families of slave warriors recorded in the place will be reduced to slaves and be wantonly sold!"

No wonder the mayor of the town is so sure that these slave warriors will be obedient, it turns out that although they have been reduced to slaves because of various crimes and the like, some of them have family members who have not become slaves, and under such a punishment for joint crimes, all the slave warriors with families will also play the role of supervising other slaves in disguise.

After all, they would never want their families to be part of the suffering slaves.

After Alfred warned the slaves, he introduced Yefeng to the slave warriors, and at his beckoning, several guards opened the door to the house.

At this time, the careful night front also immediately noticed that there was an iron chain as thick as an arm tied to this gate, and it was not easy to cut an ordinary weapon, let alone cut it, even if it could cut a gap. 166 Reading Network
