203 Nobody cares

After the deal was established, Chen Xiansong not only came out of the cage, but also got two black breads, he only ate one, and the other was torn into several portions and distributed to the emaciated women in the cage. Watching them cautiously, as if holding the most precious thing in the world world little by little, taking small sips and eating, Chen Xiansong's mood was very complicated.

Morley stood aside, watched his actions, and asked curiously, "You haven't even eaten enough, why do you want to help them?" ”

"I won't die of hunger if I eat one loaf of bread, but if they eat less, they may really get sick from hunger." Chen Xiansong turned his head and asked with some curiosity: "Everyone is a slave, why do I seem to be treated much better than them?" "When Chen Xiansong was locked up, the cage was bigger than theirs, and it was still a 'single room', with a black cloth to shade the sun.

"You're worth it, they're not worth it." Morley shook his head: "It's good that they can sell five silver coins." This time I went to the Aurora Kingdom, if I was lucky, the weather was good for the road, it would take about a month to arrive, if it rained from time to time, it would take almost two months to reach the destination, if we gave them too good food, and they couldn't sell it, what if we couldn't make money. ”

It has long been said in history books that human trafficking was a very common thing in the feudal era, and it was full of the blood and tears of countless slaves. In the past, he just looked at the black and white pictures in the e-book, and at most he was a little emotional, but now when he saw the dirty, thin and thin girls or women in the cage, who were not human, ghostly, and numb as if they had no soul, he was greatly shocked.

"Actually, I think that letting them come out and work for you will create more value than selling them." Chen Xiansong tried to convince Morley: "You see, they can help you with your laundry, they can help you with chores." Even if you teach them, they can also make some handmade products and sell them, and you take some of the money they get, although it is not much, but after a long time, the money you will make will definitely be much more than if you directly sell them. ”

"Just by selling some handicrafts, they can earn five silver coins in a year and month." At some point, Jaedra came to the two of them, and he snorted. He reprimanded Chen Xiansong's advice: "Young people, although you know how to write and know how to settle accounts, this is something you may learn as a flower man since childhood, but these things are related to business transactions. Don't come to teach my son, our family has been in business for nearly 200 years. In this regard. We don't lack experience, you just have to teach my son how to write, how to do business with people, and I will teach him. ”

As a merchant family, Jedra has extremely serious self-esteem in this regard, and merchants are also above the citizen class. He didn't know how much better than the flower man, and he felt that there was no need to listen to a flower man's advice when it came to doing business.

"There are many different approaches to the science of business." Chen Xiansong pondered for a moment. Try to be as tactful as possible: "I don't really know much, but I do know that people who really make a lot of money rarely do it themselves, and there will definitely be a lot of helpers under your hands, both men and women." ”

Jetra glanced back at Chen Xiansong and sighed, "Oh, it seems that you know a lot about how to do business?" ”

"Just overlooked." Chen Xiansong replied.

Hua Nan has been in love with elite education since he was a child, and in Jetra's opinion, perhaps Chen Xiansong has seen many aristocratic ways of doing things. It's just that he's not interested. What the nobles can do, they may not be able to do casually, he said casually: "In the future, you don't have to teach my son too many other things besides words, some knowledge, now it is a disaster to know the Tao." After he said this, he walked to the other side.

Chen Xiansong let out a long sigh and sat back on the flatbed, since the other party was unwilling to listen to his advice, it was also annoying for him to continue. The carriage swayed and walked, Chen Xiansong supported his chin, he missed Xiaomin more and more, and wanted to go home, but now he couldn't walk at all, or he couldn't go.

Unlike being threatened and kidnapped by Sosi, although Jedra treated Chen Xiansong as a flower man and sold him as a slave, he saved him after all, and if Jaedra hadn't asked Morley to pour herbs on him, even if he barely survived the fever, maybe he would have been killed by those two old guys.

After all, people have to understand Entu Bao, Chen Xiansong wanted to give a thousand gold coins to Jie Dera as a reward, but the other party didn't believe that he was a soul thinker, if he didn't return to Graystone Village, he would have no money, and he couldn't just leave like he did for Soxi, so he was very distressed now.

Soon in the evening, the caravan was stationed by a river, and Chen Xiansong began to teach Morley the basic Chinese character strokes, because of his experience in educating Alex, so it was very simple to educate Morley. The mercenaries began to set up fires and tents for the night, and at the same time began to decide who to keep vigil at night, this is a wild wilderness, and no matter how many dangerous carnivorous wild animals there are, in the wild, the most terrifying creatures are actually humans.

There were also a few mercenaries who released the women in the cage and drove them to a lower part of the river to solve their physical problems. The female slaves did not dare to defecate in the cages, because if they soiled the carriage, they would be beaten, and they were already suffocated, and when they reached their destination, they untied their clothes and took off their pants without any scruples.

A few mercenaries covered their noses and walked to the side, although they were full of blood and strong in that area, but no one was interested in these women, too thin and dirty. After about two hours of teaching Morley, it was already completely dark, and there were several bonfires burning in the camp, and Chen Xiansong was given two pieces of black bread, two pieces of white bread, and a small piece of wax meat.

He ate the two white loaves of bread, then slowly chewed on the thin slice of meat, feeling the taste of the meat on the tip of his tongue, and then walked to the cage of the carriage and gave the two black loaves to the women who had been put back in the cage. The women were already insensitive, and did not seem to react much to anything, except for a girl with a vegetable face, long yellow and messy hair, so thin that she did not even have breasts, and when she took the black bread, her eyes moved slightly, and she said a word in an almost inaudible voice.

Thank you!

It seemed to be a voice from the soul, and Chen Xiansong was silent for a moment and sighed. At this time, an ugly and sharp voice came from behind him: "Yo, I didn't expect our flower man to be a great good man, and he would rather starve himself than see his sisters suffer." Tsk, it's really a sisterhood. ”

In the eyes of many people, there is not much difference between a man and a woman. Chen Xiansong turned around and found that the person who spoke was a rather obscene-looking mercenary, with two very small eyes, staring at Chen Xiansong, which was full of some obscene light.

Chen Xiansong chewed the slices of meat in his mouth more slowly, and then looked at the other party quietly, without a trace of expression. At first, the mercenary saw the other party looking back at him, and felt very embarrassed. He also laughed, but after a while, he really couldn't stand Chen Xiansong's gaze with almost no expression, and he had a feeling that a sharp sword was stabbing straight over, and he couldn't help but get angry. Grabbing the weapon, he suddenly got up and shouted, "Little flower man, look at what." Look at me stabbing you to death with a sword. ”

Jaedra was not far away. Hearing this, he looked at the mercenary with some displeasure. Morley looked at Chen Xiansong with interest.

"The flower man is worth hundreds of gold coins, you dare to stab him to death, you can't afford to pay it back for a lifetime as a cow and a horse, be careful that your employer will make you a slave and sell it to pay off your debts." A certain mercenary next to him, Ha Lu Ha Da Da smiled, and relieved his companion.

"I'm just scaring him." The small-eyed mercenary snorted twice. Sit back in front of the campfire.

Chen Xiansong snorted in his heart, he had seen many mercenaries, many with outstanding personal strength, and he had killed many people in Emperor Fall City. Now when he gets angry, he is quite murderous, like this mercenary, he can't stand being stared at for a long time, and his strength must not be high, as long as he wears Odin's sacred clothes, if the two go head-to-head, it is not certain who wins and who loses.

None of the caravans were literate. Since he didn't even know the words, the literacy and knowledge were not much higher, Chen Xiansong did not have much in common with them, so he returned to the cage of the carriage, tore off the black cloth, covered the cage so that mosquitoes would not fly in, and then pillowed on the fishy fur and gradually fell asleep.

When it was dawn the next day, Chen Xiansong got up, ate the white bread himself, and then distributed the black bread to the female slaves. It didn't take long for the caravan to continue its departure, and by near noon, it had reached the border city, Cirrus Cloud. After paying the poll tax of more than thirty copper coins, the caravan entered the city.

After this city, there is the kingdom of Uwa. According to the plan, it would take them more than ten days to cross the entire hinterland of King Uwa to reach the border of the Aurora Kingdom, and then it would take several days to reach Shangqiu, the largest border commercial city in the Aurora Kingdom.

Jedra went to the merchants' guild to buy a border pass, while the caravan stopped at the back of a medium-sized inn.

Chen Xiansong leaned against a large tree and was shading. It's early summer, and it's noon, the sun is shining, and everyone is feeling very hot. He took a few sips of water, saw the slave girls sweating in the cage, and was about to send the water bags over, but Morley came over and asked, "Can you tell me if you ever killed someone?" ”

"Why do you think that?" Chen Xiansong asked curiously.

"The mercenaries have been discussing your business last night." Morley sighed: "They said that when you looked at Murat, you were very murderous, and you must have killed people before, and you killed a lot." It's just that I don't believe it, you are very weak, and you can see at a glance that Lu Dao has never done heavy work and dirty work, how can a person like you kill someone. ”

Chen Xiansong smiled bitterly: "In this way, I did kill more than 200 people. ”

"Bragging." Morley originally believed that Chen Xiansong had killed people, but when he heard that he claimed to have killed more than 200 people, he didn't believe it anymore and walked aside to rest.

It didn't take long for Jaedra to come back, his face a little ugly, because he had just received a piece of information from the merchants' union: due to the large-scale civil war in the Kingdom of Aurora, military supplies such as food and weapons were very valuable, but the price of Hua Nan continued to fall, it is said that it had fallen to less than a hundred gold coins, and the price was still falling, almost to the point that no one cared.

"I don't know if this guy can sell it." Jetra looked at Chen Xiansong and was thinking about whether to let him go, when a middle-aged man wearing a noble robe walked over next to him. (To be continued......)
