Chapter 314 God taught man to make and use tools, but man used this talent to kill his own kind
"Seeing you jumping around like a dog makes me feel at ease. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info", Wren didn't let Harvey's doglegs support him, pulled away Harvey's outstretched arm, and he walked directly into the camp. There were nearly 300 people in the entire camp, most of them standing outside the tents or in the open space, saluting Wren with attention. Nearly half of them were Ortlenburgers, and some were out-of-town gold prospectors.
Whether they were Ortlenburg or not, they were in awe of Wren, perhaps more than they were respectful. After all, they weren't those real mud dogs, and the slave traders weren't going to be good people in the first place, and weren't destined to be. Wren sometimes thinks that the degree of cruelty to slaves of the Desi may have something to do with the racial chauvinism of the Orlando Empire, and that the reason why they were able to treat the barbarians so brutally may have something to do with their treatment of the barbarians as a non-human animal.
Since the introduction of Wren's killing order, the price of the black barbarians in the slave market has been rising, and the black barbarians who used to only need a few dozen silver coins on the rotten street have skyrocketed to the base price of fifty silver coins, and those female black barbarians who are still good-looking are even more expensive, and the price of some of the best black barbarians has exceeded fifty gold coins. Even with such a high price, the top black barbarian slaves are still very sought-after, and they can be sold immediately as long as they are pulled out.
This slaughter of 3,000 domesticated and a small number of undomesticated black barbarians has hurt Harvey's bones, and he has almost no income for half a year, relying entirely on the wealth accumulated before to support his career. However, his gain was also shocking, and that was the knighthood.
This is simply a knighthood bought with money, it is simply impossible, but he actually did it. There were three major slave traders in the province of Bell, but Harvey was the only one who did it. Why? Because he is the only boss in his slave hunting team, and all the black barbarians are his private property. The other slave hunters and slave traders often had multiple shareholders, which caused great conflicts with each other. After all, only one of three or five or seven or eight people can be a nobleman, and everyone wants to keep this opportunity to themselves, which creates irreconcilable contradictions, so that in the end no one takes advantage.
Walking into the well-arranged camp, Wren nodded with satisfaction, although Harvey has many small problems, ugly and ugly, but it is undeniable that this guy knows the most about current affairs and is the best at doing things. He was like a combination of Alma and Hugo, and if it weren't for the fact that this guy really couldn't get on the stage, Wren would have taken him to the imperial capital.
Harvey put a lot of thought into the arrangement of the tent, and also used a lot of money to invite a former court hostess, who is now a nobleman, and the court hostesses are willing to serve the nobles, otherwise no matter how much money he pays, he will not be able to invite anyone.
The chair is covered with exquisite animal skin upholstery, which is very soft and comfortable when it is made, holding a teacup with sterling silver rim, tasting black tea from the royal collection of the Byron Empire, Wren breathes a sigh of relief. He slowly put down the cup and glanced at Harvey, who immediately hooked his waist and lowered his head, looking like a dog, "I will make a pact with Tutu that in the future, it will be forbidden to capture black slaves in the Salme Mountains in the province of Bel." ”
Harvey's face facing the land suddenly froze, he had been holding black slaves all his life, and slave hunting had become a habit and instinct just like the life he loved, and he was a little caught off guard and a little dazed by the sudden fact that he gave up slave hunting. What else could he do but catch slaves?, but then he reversed Wren's words and carefully considered them, and suddenly came to his senses. You can't catch slaves in Bell Province, so what about outside Bell Province?
He nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I see." ”
A wise man knows how to arm himself with his cleverness, and he has not become any different from before because he has received a reward from the baron, and he also knows very well that even if he is a viscount or an earl, he still has to bow his head when it is time to bow his head.
Wren also likes him very much, he knows the current affairs, sees the situation clearly, is tough when he should be tough, and does not hesitate when he should pretend to be cowardly. It is also a pleasant thing to have this kind of subordinate, he couldn't help but add a sentence, and reminded Harvey, "The church is about to go east, instead of catching the black barbarians, it is better to catch some orcs and half-orcs to come back, compared to the black barbarians, these slaves are very promising in terms of price and sales." ”
In fact, orc and half-orc slaves are not allowed to buy and sell at will in the official regulations, and the Desi are very interested in blood, and the racial reproductive segregation in this world has been inexplicably broken, and even humans and beasts can breed the next generation. This is definitely a big trouble for the Desi who advocate pure-blood, they have spent more than three hundred years maintaining the purity of the bloodline, and if the Desi bloodline is complicated because of orc slaves, this is definitely something that the nobles do not want to see.
But in fact, in the mansions of some nobles in the imperial capital, some orc slaves are also imprisoned, and the difference between orcs and humans has a greater attraction. Wren, for example, knew that the Marquis of Rhine's mansion was hiding a snake demon, and that Isaac, the hardcore count, owned several lizardman slaves.
Of course, these slaves have solved the possibility that they might produce biologically, but no one will find it immoral and cruel, after all, those slaves are just animals.
Harvey's eyes lit up, and he took the suggestion to heart. Orcs are powerful, but they are not invincible, and they will bleed and die in the face of sharp swords and arrows. Even if the price is greater than capturing the black barbarians, there are more benefits to be gained.
"Tell me how the blackbarians are doing. Wren took out a cigarette, the red curly leaves wrapped the milled Dragon Island tobacco bricks, and once it was lit, the whole tent was filled with a strange fragrance.
Before Wren ordered the end of the barbarian killing order, all the organizations that hunted the black barbarians had gone deep into the miracle corridor farther away, but the results were not outstanding. In the jungle, the black barbarians are no longer the biggest enemy, the biggest enemy is this forest. All kinds of natural traps and unexpected man-eating plants have caused great damage to the Desi, and nearly seventy percent of the losses are caused by these things.
There are also wild beasts and diseases carried by mosquitoes, which also make many people have to leave the forest without even seeing the shadow of the black barbarians, or even die here.
In fact, even if Wren doesn't end the barbarian killing order, at this time, the barbarian killing order will not be able to continue.
Both sides have reached their limits!
If it weren't for the fact that the head of the black barbarian could be exchanged for money and military exploits, I am afraid that many black barbarians would take the initiative to appear and volunteer to be slaves. A large number of blackbarians died of starvation, which was one of the reasons why the blackbarians were forced to surrender. The sudden all-out war left them without time to stock up on more food and lost their war potential. If they had been prepared, perhaps such a race war would have lasted much longer before the winner was decided.
Harvey also mentioned that Aphro has won the support of the vast majority of the black barbarians, and when the black barbarians calm down from their frenzy, they will eventually compromise with their own traditions. Since they can't defeat the Desi, it means that God has given them the Holy Maiden to survive the current difficulties. Many tribes have taken the initiative to worship Aphro, revering her as the holy daughter of the Black Barbarians, and it can be said that now Aphro's status in the Black Barbarian race has far surpassed the chiefs of various tribes.
This is good news.
Wren smoked a cigarette and thought quietly, Harvey didn't dare to come out, for fear of disturbing Wren.
Wren plans to send some people into the forest, nominally to spy on the black barbarians, but in fact to train them in the forest. Compared to those nobles who have no sense of urgency, Wren is always vigilant in his heart. The entire Salme mountain range, which almost divides the entire continent in two, is the best position and the best labyrinth. Whether it's to maintain the greatest deterrent outside of the province of Bell, or to find an extra retreat, the Salme Mountains are a top priority.
He retracted his divergent thoughts, snuffed out the cigarette butt that was about to burn, and looked at Harvey, "Go and get ready, I'm going to get to the miracle corridor by twelve o'clock tomorrow afternoon." ”
The mountain road is not easy to walk, but fortunately it is difficult for Harvey, this dogleg has long known Wren's purpose and the urgency of time, and he whimsically created an air passage. Using a sturdy vine as a traction, the carriage is fixed one after the other, and then the vines behind are cut off, and the carriage swings forward like a seat suspended from a swing. When the carriage is thrown out and is about to reach its apex due to inertia, two new vines are prepared to secure the carriage.
Repeating this motion, the carriage was like an ape with two long arms, swinging through the huge trunks of the forest many times faster than on the ground.
I have to say that this method is very risky, but fortunately, there is a solidified levitation technique under Wren's carriage to reduce the weight of the carriage, and there is no need to worry too much about the carriage falling and causing huge casualties.
In this way, it only took more than half a day for the carriage to appear on the outside of the miracle corridor.
Getting out of the carriage, Wren's face was not good-looking, although this method of rushing was fast, but the shaking was also large, if it weren't for his good physical and mental fitness, it was estimated that he would have fainted. Looking back at the sparse jasmine who was spitting on the trunk of the tree, and smelling the sour smell in the air, Wren's face turned three points paler. Looking at Harvey, who looked embarrassed, Wren kicked him over.
Aphro had been waiting for a long time, but she was still the same as before, and walked over unhurriedly, saluting with Desi etiquette before taking Wren's arm. There was no trace of anxiety or nervousness on her face, as if there was nothing going on with her here.
