Chapter 235: Bonoton (1)
Ron was slightly shocked in his heart, he had spent so much money this time, and most of it was spent on this little girl.
The girl's figure is not tall, and it is also the melon seed face that Ron appreciates in his aesthetics, but the girl's body is too thin, not tall, her chest and buttocks are also flat, and she is still wearing shabby linen clothes, she has been in this filthy environment for so long, many places on the girl's body are dirty, Ron really can't imagine that this girl will have such an expensive price.
"Is it the great nobles of Wishal?" Ron could only explain with such reasons.
"Don't worry, we'll talk slowly on the way back. Ron gently touched the girl's head, it was no wonder that she was sold as a slave at such a young age.
The slaves were crammed into cramped cages for so long that they couldn't even walk normally at first, but it wasn't that far from Hamp City, and Ron told Will to ride to Hamp City first, and then come with a carriage to meet them.
After a morning of tossing and turning, Ron and Will finally managed to send the slaves to Hamp City.
There are few more houses left in Hamp City, and in the current conditions it can only live in makeshift tents, but such conditions are much better than in the cages of ox carts.
"Give these slaves some porridge and water first, and don't let them eat too much. Otherwise, their stomachs can't stand it. ”
Taking advantage of lunch, Ron also learned about the situation of these slaves, most of whom were commoners in Wishal, or servants of noble families. Because of some plots that didn't sound serious, he was thrown into the slave market by his master.
These slaves all volunteered to stay in Bol City, and Ron's actions were unimaginable in this world. Although Ron himself did not express his position, these efforts made Ron, who had restored their freedom, their own master, and they would also devote themselves to the construction of Hamp City after their bodies recovered.
The only one who didn't want to stay in Hamp City was this girl named Sylvie.
After coming to Hamp City, the girl still looked autistic, and the only time she opened her mouth was to express her desire to return to Wishal.
"Uh, don't you know how to ride a horse?"
Ron and Will were about to set off again after a short rest, as they were about to speed up their way because of the delay, but Sylvie didn't seem to know how to ride a horse, and given her petite size, she was likely to be thrown off the horse.
Ron helped the girl to ride on his mount, and grabbed the reins in front of him with both hands around the girl's waist, this action seemed a little ambiguous, but in fact, Ron did not have any dirty thoughts about this somewhat stunted girl.
In addition to the gates of Hamp City, Ron and Will gradually increased their speed, the girl grabbed the reins near the horse's neck, and slowly lay herself on the horse's back, her movements were a little stiff, Ron clearly remembered that he had reacted like this when he rode a horse for the first time in his previous life.
"Are you a nobleman of Wishal?" Ron asked tentatively.
The girl's body stiffened slightly, and then she shook her head.
Ron couldn't help but smile and shook his head, this Sylvie obviously hasn't experienced anything in the world, Ron who is a two-life person can see the girl lying at a glance, but Ron won't tell it, this kind of secret, if others don't want to say it, Ron won't force it.
"Where is your home in Wishal?" Ron asked, "Why did you fall into the hands of these people?"
The girl hesitated for a moment, and said timidly, "I don't know. ”
Ron was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting the girl to answer like this, and suddenly laughed a little: "Didn't you say that you want to provide me with information about Wesheilpo Norton." ”
"My lord, I don't want to stay with people I don't know, you saved me, I'll follow you. The girl said.
Behind him came Will couldn't help laughing, Ron scratched his head a little embarrassed, they didn't bring more people in this operation, what they pursued was efficiency and concealment, and now they suddenly brought such a girl who was not deeply involved in the world, Ron didn't know what the future journey would become, but at the moment, it was obvious that he had to take the girl with him.
"Your name is Sylvie, isn't it?"
"Yes. ”
"Brother Will and I are going on a very dangerous mission, aren't you afraid?"
"I don't know. The girl said softly, "As long as you don't go to the Holy Capital, it's fine." ”
"Holy Capital?"
Ron's mind was running rapidly, the holy capital in the girl's mouth was undoubtedly the imperial capital of Wishal, could it be that this Sylvie came out of the imperial capital? Those who could gain a foothold in the imperial capital of Wishaler were all nobles with prominent status.
"Sylvie, you're from Wishal, so have you heard of the Maylis family?"
This is also one of the purposes of Ron's trip, Merial has never received any information about the family since he fled from Wieshal, according to Ron's words, he is now half of the Maylis family, and it is naturally his duty to investigate information.
"I know the Maylis family, but it doesn't seem to be gone anymore. ”
"Gone, isn't the family gone?"
"I don't know, I just heard that they wanted to commit treason, and they ended up being caught and put in prison. ”
Ron took a deep breath, Sylvie knew very little information, but as Meria said, the entire Maylis family had become the history of the empire, and if you want to revitalize this once prestigious family, you have to start from scratch.
"Do you have any relatives in Wishal? I can find a way to get you home. ”
"No, my lord, please trust me and don't drive me away. There was a sudden hint of crying in Sylvie's voice.
"Okay, well, don't drive you away, don't drive you away. Ron touched the girl's head: "Then you hold the rope tightly, we are going to speed up, and when it comes to Bonoton, we will change you into a new dress." ”
Ron flicked his whip fiercely, and the horse was in pain, and instantly sped up and galloped across the Great Plains.
"Will, I'll take care of Sylvie later, I might have to take care of something. ”
"Processing...... My lord, do you want to kill—"
"That's right, black-hearted money is not so easy to earn, these dregs of human trafficking, I want them to spit out all the money they have eaten!"
