The people of the Kingdom of Aurora have an almost pathological attachment to their homeland, and when they are young, no matter how famous they are outside, when they are old, they will find a way to return to their hometown for the rest of their lives. If there is an accident and you can't return to your homeland by yourself, you will ask someone to bring your body or ashes back to your hometown before you die.

This is something that everyone in the world knows, and many nobles speculate that when the Aurora Kingdom was strong, it did not like to expand externally, or it was related to their nostalgia for the homeland. In any case, a large empire that is not aggressive will put many people at ease.

The Aurora Kingdom is very rich, whether it is silk, porcelain, or paper, these are luxury goods in other countries, and the merchants of other countries have to use the same weight of gold to exchange for paper, ten times the weight of gold for porcelain, a thousand times the weight of gold for silk, a large amount of gold and silver poured into the Kingdom of Aurora, but it is a pity that such wealth is only concentrated in the hands of a few people.

So now the Kingdom of Aurora is at war. It stands to reason that businessmen generally avoid doing business in war-torn countries, but Jaedra seems to have had his own ideas.

Listening to the words of the young man, Chen Xiansong fell silent, the word hometown, for people in the twenty-second century, has no meaning, at that time it was already a real global village, if you want to go anywhere, it will not take more than five hours, he has been traveling since he was a child, under the protection of Sister Bai, he has seen the desert, climbed the snowy mountains, rushed through the waves, and played with gliders...... The wingsuit is so dangerous that the new humans forbid natural persons under the age of twenty-five to try it.

So Chen Xiansong can't understand the so-called nostalgia, only silence.

The boy took his silence as a tacit acquiescence, and he helped Chen Xiansong cover the wooden cage with a black cloth again, but he still left a small opening for general use and conversation. After doing all this. He asked slowly: "You Aurora people are very powerful, although there are often civil wars, but they are still the most powerful country, you know etiquette, and the Sun Temple often helps you, but I don't understand, why do you always like to overthrow your own emperor, even if there is nothing wrong with that emperor, I heard that your Aurora Kingdom changes a family every two or three hundred years to be a royal family, and every time it is a fight to the death." ”

"How do I know these things?" Chen Xiansong smiled bitterly. He's not really an Aurora. At this time, his stomach rumbled, and he asked, "Can you give me something to eat?" ”

The young man stepped aside, brought half a piece of black bread and a water bag, Chen Xiansong took it from the wooden bar, frowned and asked, "This is too little." I can't get enough to eat. ”

"It's right if you don't have enough to eat." The boy laughed.

Chen Xiansong only thought about it on his knees for a moment and understood that this was deliberately for fear that these slaves would escape. He shoved the black bread into his mouth. Chew slowly. He had read this little knowledge on the Internet before. The longer you chew, the easier it is for food to absorb. It was clear that the slaves would starve so that they would not have the strength to escape until they were sold. In the limited time of this food, it is important to increase the ability to attract it.

The wild roads of this era are all walked by people. There is no cement, no asphalt roads, and no asphalt, and it is generally extremely uneven. The carriage staggered, and occasionally shook a few times, and at this time, the thick untreated fur on the carriage served as a cushion, and even if there was some unpleasant fishy smell, it did not seem so annoying.

After chewing the black bread out of the maltose-like sweetness, Chen Xiansong slowly swallowed the mushy food in his mouth into his stomach, he looked at the young man outside, and said very cautiously: "I am really a soul contemplative, if you can send me back to the territory, the reward of hundreds of thousands of gold coins will definitely not be less, what do you believe in." ”

"It's not funny to say the same joke once and hear it a second time." The young man said lightly: "Also, my name is Morley, if there is something, you can call my name." ”

For ordinary commoners, the status of the soul contemplative is too high, and it is rare to see it in ordinary times, if he says that he is a small nobleman, there may be some people who believe it two or three points, but say that he is a soul contemplative...... Without him donning the robes of the Soul Thinker and without his retinue by his side, no one really would believe it.

"Alright then, let's put it another way." Chen Xiansong remembered that he had just come out of the underground protection center and met Aslan's experience during that time, and he had a plan in his heart, so he continued: "How much is it worth if you sell me?" ”

"Father said that it would be worth more to sell you to the nobles of his country." Morley looked at the middle-aged man in the distance and said adoringly: "But he also said that you escaped from this neighborhood, and your original master must also be a nobleman of your country." If we sell you locally, in case we accidentally bump into him, we can only return you, which will be a big loss, so it is better to transport you back to the Aurora Kingdom, although it will be cheaper, but it should be worth three or four hundred gold coins. ”

"So cheap!" Chen Xiansong was a little helpless, there were tens of thousands of gold coins in his home alone, and there was still a mess of knowledge in his head, so he took out some casually, and a large number of nobles came over with gold coins and cried and shouted to ask for them, but he didn't expect that he was in trouble now, but it was only worth three or four hundred gold coins, which was simply unbearable.

"It's not cheap." Morley was very hurt and said: "The net profit earned by coming back to trade between our two countries once has never exceeded a hundred gold coins, and your goods alone are worth the total profit of our three or four transactions, so my father said that he was lucky to pick you up, and you survived the fever, and it was even more luck." I've always wondered if a man who sells his ass for something will earn more and be worth more than someone who works hard. ”

"I'm not a flower guy who sells ass." Chen Xiansong lay back on the fur, his body was very healthy under the conditioning of the new human for nearly 20 years, and although the disease came quickly, it did not go slowly. But he was still a little weak, hungry, and his body was weak and weak, and he was not very energetic: "Your name is Morley, right, since you are a businessman, how about we do business?" ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. "Morley has a good impression of Chen Xiansong. He is the youngest boy in the team, Chen Xiansong was born with a baby face, he looks white and tender, and his appearance looks much younger than his actual age, he feels that the two are almost the same age, and he doesn't feel too lonely when he talks about the sky.

"I know how to settle accounts. He also understands the common language of the mainland. Chen Xiansong recommended himself: "I know more about some strange knowledge, you let me out, I will help you keep accounts, teach you to learn writing and arithmetic, follow the caravan, you are only responsible for my food and drink, until I pay off my three or four hundred gold coins before leaving, what do you think?" ”

"Do you know how to settle accounts and write?" Morley's eyes lit up, and then he said as a matter of course: "Also, Hua Nan has been trained by elite education since he was a child. I pay attention to the mood, and I heard that I know a skill or two...... It's said that everyone can give a, well, you wait, I'll talk to my father. ”

Morley trotted over to Jaedra. It didn't take long for the latter to jump off the wheels of the flatbed truck. Walked to Chan Hyun-song's carriage. Walking side by side, he asked very calmly: "Boy, listen to my son, do you know the common Chinese language in the mainland?" Is it true or false, how many words? ”

"I know four or five thousand common words." Chen Xiansong listened to and looked at the middle-aged man, and felt that he had a play: "Although I dare not say that I am too proficient." But basic reading and writing, absolutely no problem. If you don't believe me, you can test it out. ”

The middle-aged man immediately took out a sheepskin bag from his arms, and then took out a few pieces of white paper with the common Chinese characters (Chinese characters) written on them from the sheepskin bag. Slipped through the gap in the bar, he said, "You read the text on it." Although I can't read, I know very well what it means. ”

Chen Xiansong took it and took a look at it, and found that this was a contract, which was very simple about the content of the contract, mainly to say how much gold Party B owes Party A, and how much time to pay it off, if it can't be paid off, it will be a slave for eternity, and the contract can not be terminated until three generations later. At the bottom of this deed is the official seal of the Association of Souls of the Soul.

Chen Xiansong finished reading the contract book, and Jetra nodded: "Well, that's right, it seems that it is indeed a common language in the mainland, so in this way, we can indeed make a deal." First of all, let me talk about my personal thoughts, what do you think? ”

"Please."

"You are the goods I bought, and I saved your life. If it weren't for the herbs I made, you might not have survived the fever, you can't deny that. ”

Chen Xiansong nodded, he seemed to see a long fox tail growing behind Jetra's ass.

"I saved your life, and it stands to reason that you should be grateful to me." Jaedra smiled lightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up like an arc: "Then it is normal to send me some gold coins and some wealth, it should not be too much." But I know that if you don't have any money on you, the money will be free, so as a literate person, you must know how to be grateful, and it is only natural that you teach my son to learn writing for free. ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiansong smiled bitterly: "Uncle, you are really a competent businessman. ”

"It's just a family heirloom." Jaedra: "But I won't take advantage of you entirely, and while you teach my son how to write, you won't have to live in a cage anymore, and eat the same food as we do, but I'm not going to pay you a copper plate, and at night, we'll still lock you in a wooden cage to prevent you from escaping, and if you can accept these conditions, our deal will be executed immediately." ”

Chen Xiansong frowned: "Listening to what you say, it seems that when you go to the Aurora Kingdom, you will still sell me as a flower man?" ”

"Of course!" Jetra smiled: "You can be worth at least three or four hundred gold coins, I am stupid not to sell." ”

"Learning words doesn't happen overnight." Chen Xiansong glanced at the young man with blank eyes and an extremely honest look, and he said slowly: "From the Kate Kingdom to the Aurora Kingdom, it will only take about a month or two, during this period, how many words can he learn?" ”

"It takes at least five years to be able to read and write fluently." Jetra nodded: "I've heard about this, and I've heard even more about it, if you want to do this, you usually have to pay the teacher thousands of gold coins for tuition." And you can't stay with us for five years, whether you're a flower boy or not. ”

Chen Xiansong frowned again. Indeed, as long as he has the opportunity, he will try his best to return to Graystone Village, Xiao Min must be very anxious and worried about him now, if he wants to teach a student to read and write books fluently, it does take quite a long time, about this, Jie Dra's more thorough than him.

"In the past month or two, I think it will be enough for Morley to lay the foundation for learning words." Jie Dera tilted his head and looked at Chen Xiansong: "And you get a certain amount of freedom, and plenty of food, and you won't go hungry, what do you think of this deal?" ”

Anyway, eat your stomach first, and don't think about the rest for the time being. Chen Xiansong nodded: "Okay, deal." (To be continued......)

PS: Hearthstone, Sword Spirit, Guild Wars 2, are all coming out, tsk tsk, how can I write a book with peace of mind.
