Chapter 43: Better People
There was a knock on the door outside the compartment of the train, and when he heard the knock, Zhang Tie took his eyes off the roof of the church of the ancient gods in the distance.
Although the people outside hadn't come in yet, Zhang Tie just listened to the footsteps and already knew who was coming.
"Come in!" Zhang Tie said softly.
As Zhang Tie's personal guard, the Tyrannical Bear Warrior Wajid of the Giant Bear Tribe pushed open the door and walked in with a few people.
"My lord, the person you want to see has been brought!"
"Okay, you go down!"
Hearing this, Wajid glanced at the people, as if to tell them to pay attention to etiquette and proportion, before quietly retreating, and then closed the door of the box.
The few people who came in were all acquaintances, at least Zhang Tie's acquaintances, several death row prisoners who had been sent to the Cernes war zone to be cannon fodder, the old dog He-Man, the treasurer Shemir, the veterinarian Figo and the shopkeeper Dinar, plus Da Vinci, a slave dealer in Stargazing City in Huaiyuan County.
At the beginning, Zhang Tie rescued a few people in the Cernes war zone, and then took them to Huaiyuan County, and then asked them to go on a mission with Leonardo da Vinci - to give the poor slaves who wanted to leave the mainland a ticket and get them to the ice and snow wasteland.
In the past two years, several people have been doing this, and with the cooperation of the Spencer family, more than 200,000 slaves have been transported to the Ice and Snow Wasteland, and three towns have been established outside the city of Eskil, which is almost equivalent to saving more than 200,000 lives.
I haven't seen you for two years, these former liars, thieves. There are some changes in the body of the perverted doctor and the fake witness dealer, and the old dog He-Man looks like a real wealthy businessman. The treasurer Shemir had a little more refinement, the veterinarian Figo really had the gentle temperament of a doctor, the shopkeeper Dinar's face had a little more compassion, and Leonardo da Vinci, the slave dealer in Stargazing City, had also become rich.
Several people were dressed in sophisticated new clothes, as they walked into the carriage. Know Peter. Hamples wanted to see them, and several of them seemed a little reserved and trembling, for them after all. There is too much difference between the identities of the two sides, Peter. Hamples was the King of the Ice Wasteland, and the legends of this man they had heard on their first day in the Ice Wasteland. And they. It's just a few small people who deal with slaves, and in their eyes, the stewards under the Spencer family are big people, not to mention Peter. With a character like Hamples, neither side knows how many levels are different.
A few people don't even know why Peter. Hamples would have known the names of several of them, and would not have known why he had known about Peter. Why did Hamperes go out of his way to meet them by name?
Zhang Tie was looking at a few people, and those people were also looking at Zhang Tie.
A look of shock appeared on the faces of several people, because everyone who had seen Zhang Tie and Peter. The similarity of the two people's looks can be clearly found.
While the other people still had a look of disbelief on their faces, the old dog He-Man, who was the first to react, was already the first to bow his head. I didn't dare to take another look at Zhang Tie's face, and several other people also found something, and they all lowered their heads, and Da Vinci's face changed all of a sudden, but in an instant, the forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
They all know what happens to little people like them when they know secrets that shouldn't be known to them.
"Sit down...... Zhang Tie said gently, pointing to the two rows of luxurious sofas in the train compartment.
Hearing Zhang Tie's undisguised voice, the few people who were not very sure trembled in their hearts, the old dog He-Man's head hung lower, and Leonardo da Vinci's body was weak and almost collapsed.
"You ......" Veterinarian Figo opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was gently kicked by Dinar next to him, and he came to his senses and quickly shut up.
Several people sat on the sofa stiffly, all with strange faces, shock, and fear, and several people deliberately did not look at Zhang Tie's face.
"I'm very satisfied with what you've done in the past two years!" Zhang Tie opened his mouth.
At this moment, in the box of this train, although Zhang Tie's whole person was sitting and did not seem to move, his battle spirit had quietly and completely penetrated into the walls and decks of the train car, wrapping the sound and vibration in the box, which was a method of using battle qi that only knights could master, and it could be regarded as a practical skill to isolate others from eavesdropping during conversation.
Hearing Zhang Tie open his mouth, several people didn't know what to say, only the old dog He-Man sighed and raised his head again, "I haven't lived up to Your Excellency's trust, maybe the only thing we can still feel a little proud of!" ”
"I've heard you've changed a lot!"
"In fact, in the past two years, many people have said that we have changed a lot of slaves, but in fact, we have been changed by those slaves!" Seaman looked at Zhang Tie, "Shemir married a girl who lost all her family in the war, started a family, became the commissioner of the town's police station, became a father this year, Figo is now a real veterinarian, with a large number of students, teaching those students how to treat livestock, how to make a living in the ice and snow wasteland, dinar invented a way to make high-grade paper from the branches and leaves of the sea buckthorn tree, and is now the owner of the factory, with more than 3,000 employees, In several harbor cities south of the Blackson Terran corridor, the name Leonardo da Vinci has almost become the hope of many slaves and slaves to get out of the sea of suffering! ”
"So, what about you?"
Seaman thought about it seriously, "In the past, the only goal of my life was for money, but now, I have found that in addition to money, in this world, there are actually some other things that can make you pay something, when you walk in a small town, the people who see you in the town will greet you with a smile, and they will thank you from the bottom of their hearts, respect you, trust you, look at you with shining eyes, hold your hand excitedly with warm and trembling hands, one person is like this to you, ten people are like this, and a hundred people are like this." Eleven thousand people are still like this to you, you will change too, it's good to have money. But if you have money, you can be appreciated and respected! ”
Zhang Tie knew that what He-Man said was true, and when he brought the shipload of slaves from a desperate situation to the ice and snow wasteland, they were actually being changed by those slaves, these death row prisoners who were originally pushed to the battlefield to become cannon fodder. One by one, it was as if they had rediscovered their own lives and started another stage of their lives.
After Shemir, who was originally a thief, became the commissioner of the police station, petty theft in the town completely disappeared. The security of the entire town can almost become the benchmark of the Ice and Snow Wasteland, and the perverted castration maniac Figo is now the most respected veterinarian in the entire area of Eskir City, and in addition to the slave students, many small and medium-sized tribes and villages have sent young people to him to learn the art of veterinary medicine. The dinar used to make a living by producing and selling false documents and bills. I also put my ingenuity to the right place. The high-grade paper he produced, called golden sea buckthorn paper, was exported in large quantities to the Ewendala Islands, where it became the best high-grade commercial paper for printing. And Leonardo da Vinci, in the past two years, also used the money he earned to build two elementary schools in those slave towns and played charity. And the old dog He-Man, who once deceived the Doji Commercial Bank into almost bankruptcy, this super liar, has become the overall figure in his slave redemption plan. played a crucial role in this.
Those slaves, the righteous deeds of redemption. Let each of them strive to become a better person.
In fact, everyone, if they want to, can become a better person.
Zhang Tie was very pleased, because he had witnessed the changes of these people, and although the current development of these people had not been expected by him, they were finally doing something meaningful.
"Well, it's true that there is no veterinary school in the Ice and Snow Wasteland, Figo, would you like to be the principal of the first veterinary school in the Ice and Snow Wasteland?" Zhang Tie's words made everyone stunned.
Figo raised his head suddenly, looking incredulous, "You won't kill us?" ”
"Killing me is not a reward for the loyalists! And you guys are doing a good job, why should you be killed? Zhang Tie blinked.
"Because ......," Figo was speechless.
"Because I look a little like someone you know?" Zhang Tie laughed, "Could it be that in your hearts, the person who brought you out of the Cernes War Zone is such a cruel and terrifying person!" ”
"Could it be that the little man can still live after knowing such a secret?" The old dog Seaman also looked at Zhang Tie with surprised eyes.
"Maybe when you walk out of this box, you will naturally forget that secret!" Zhang Tie's voice was slightly ethereal, with a strange ability that penetrated people's hearts.
The more advanced hypnotism can make people forget certain memories, not to mention a secret method like "The Great Technique of Soul Forbidden Break".
"That'...... Am I going to keep doing it? Leonardo da Vinci stammered.
"Things can go on and on, they can be scaled up, but in a slightly different way, and it might be better for you to do it in some kind of official capacity!"
"Some kind of official status?" Leonardo da Vinci looked at Zhang Tie suspiciously.
"For example, the identity of a deputy director of the National Immigration Bureau!"
Leonardo da Vinci became excited, and his face suddenly glowed red.
Zhang Tie looked at the dinar again, "I heard that the sales of your paper are very good, you can also expand the scale of production a little bit, recruit a little more manpower, if you can make a few more inventions, I can consider granting you a patent in the future!" ”
The dinar was also excited.
"So, what about me?" Shemir asked, a little embarrassed.
"Don't you think that being a good father and a good husband is a man's greatest cause?" Zhang Tie looked at Shimier.
Shemir's face turned red at once.
"But if you have too many children in the future and find that your little salary can't support your children, I have a well-paying position here that you can consider!"
"What position?"
"Senior Security Counsellor at the Eskill City Police Department, the salary for this position is more than enough for you to support twenty children!"
"Ah......" Shimer was also excited, his lips trembled, and he did not know what to say, but the tears rolled in his eyes.
Zhang Tie looked at Seaman, "I have a lot of things to take care of here in the Ice and Snow Wasteland, and now I still lack a housekeeper......
Seaman stood up suddenly, deeply stroked his chest and bowed to Zhang Tie, elegant, and full of aristocratic temperament, "Your Majesty, if you affirm it, it will be my greatest honor." ”
陛xià? Hearing this title, several other people looked at Seaman and didn't react at all, only Zhang Tie laughed, an old dog is an old dog, this sense of smell is not an ordinary Octavia......
……
When leaving the box, except for Seaman, the others felt that their minds were in a trance, as if something had disappeared, but everyone thought about it, but they couldn't remember what had disappeared, and everyone was immersed in the kind of seeing Peter. Hamples' excitement and vision for the future......
He-Man was a little strange, for as soon as everyone had left the box, he had noticed that everyone was talking about Peter. Hampeless's tone and demeanor seemed to have forgotten something......
A voice appeared directly in He-Man's ears, but the others did not hear, "As my butler, you can know a little more things, so that you will have a broader vision and better understand your position, don't let me down!" ”
Seaman's heart sank, and the whole person bowed deeply to the box again...... (To be continued......)
