Chapter 018: Repeating the Old Trick

"How so, how so!"

The room was constantly filled with cursing sounds, whips, crumbling pottery, women crying...

It wasn't long before the enraged slave owner walked out of the room with his pants in his hand.

"Where's the little brute?"

"I'm still sick..."

This steward has inverted triangular eyes, and is the most clever, and he does all the dirty work, and is called a dove by the people around the market.

"I don't know what's going on, at first he fell to the ground and said that his stomach hurt, but he just pretended to be sick, God knows, he was really sick!"

The dove steward walked on thin ice, and with every word he spoke, he carefully looked at the slave owner with his spare eyes, and his inverted triangular eyes shimmered.

He knew that the boss was angry now and said a little wrong

In the room behind him, two stewards carried out a corpse wrapped in a grass sweep, and when it was dark, they threw it out of the city and buried it indiscriminately.

The slave owner scooped up a spoonful of water and poured it over his head to calm himself down.

"Go, call the old stubborn!"

Even he can realize that he has a big deal this time!

In front of a wooden cage, the slave owner stood menacingly, and beside him stood the dove steward.

In the wooden cage, a child was lying on the ground.

The child was pale, curled up, and fell into vomit and excrement, emitting a fishy stench that was disgusting.

How stinky is it?

Even when the old stubborn came, he suspected that he had walked to the thatched house!

"What's going on here?"

The old stubbornly covered his nose and shouted,

"You've already approached me twice today, and I need time to study the Holy Codex!"

When the old stubborn mentioned the Holy Codex, a trace of disgust and fear flashed across the slave owner's face.

Damn the Codex, if it weren't for the Holy Codex, he wouldn't have fallen into such a passive situation!

"Listen, old man!"

The slave owner, who was in a bad mood, did not be polite to the old stubborn and explained things clearly in a few words,

"Someone bought this little beast for ten big gold coins, and now the little beast looks like this, I'm afraid I'm going to die, what should I do?"

The old stubborn has lost his temper, and he is about to turn around and leave,

"I'm a scholar of the Holy Codex, not a physician, what are you asking me to do about this!"

Be all abroad!

The slave owner stretched out his fat hand and pulled the old stubborn back.

His spitting star, sprayed on the old stubborn face, accompanied by a fishy smell, the slave owner yelled,

"Lao Tzu is telling you that this little beast is worth 10 big gold coins! He's dying now! The doctor can't help it, is there any way to turn over your broken slate! โ€

When it comes to the Holy Codex, the old stubborn behaves quite professionally, and asks rhetorically,

"What do you want?"

The slave owner let go of his hand, blushed, and said,

"A way to save money for Lao Tzu!"

The old stubborn didn't go to tidy up his collar, but carefully and slowly, and continued to ask,

"Who is the buyer and what is his identity?"

The slave owner snorted coldly and did not answer.

The dove steward on the side hurriedly said, "Ludon ยท Y. Wegood, a citizen of the Divine State. โ€

"The Wegud family?"

The old stubborn was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said,

"Isn't this family dying?"

"What?"

The slave owner's eyes lit up, and he was gearing up,

"You mean, someone is posing as a citizen of the Divine State?"

If that's the case, the slave owner will report it to the law enforcement team immediately!

Not only can you leave 10 large gold coins, but you can also exchange them for the commendation of the law enforcement team!

Thinking of this, the slave owner's heart was hot.

The old stubborn scratched the head of the chicken nest and muttered,

"Let me think... What is the name of the last generation of the WeGoode family? Luden, yes, Ludon Y. WeGood. โ€

Slaveowner:......

He shouldn't have been greedy for cheap and hired such a second-rate commodity!

But the problem is that the orthodox scholars of the Holy Code,

Or, they don't bother to work for him at all, and they won't look at him with the right eyes.

Or, the price is outrageously high.

Old stubborn, he was already the best Holy Law scholar he could invite.

After confirming the identity of the buyer, Lao Stubborn continued to ask, "How much did this slave sell?" โ€

The dove steward trembled and said, "Ten large gold coins." โ€

His heart and liver trembled as he said the numbers.

That's ten big gold coins!

This little thing, how can it be so valuable!

The slave owner scolded in his heart at this moment, how could a slave be sold for such a high price!

The Holy Law should clearly stipulate that this little beast can only be sold for 5 meters, no, 1 meter is too much!

Unmoved, the old stubborn continued to ask, "Did you collect the money?" โ€

Dove steward: "... Received"

The old stubborn asked with a glance, "How long will it take to pick up the goods?" โ€

The dove steward replied, "Two clouds are still half a cloud hour." โ€

The old stubborn glanced at the child on the ground, "Can this pass the inspection?" โ€

The slave trade should also pay attention to the sacred law.

In case of fulfillment, according to the Holy Code, the defaulting party needs to pay 1-3 times the amount of the contract!

That is... 10 to 30 large gold coins!

"Inspection... Should..."

The words stuck in the back swirled in the throat of the dove steward, and he couldn't speak.

As long as you are not blind, you can see that this child cannot pass the inspection.

The old stubborn said word by word,

"If it is not possible to pass the inspection, according to the seventh of the Holy Law..."

"Enough!"

The slave owner couldn't bear it anymore and scolded angrily,

"Lao Tzu paid you to come, not for you to read the article!"

The provisions related to the slave trade are well memorized by slave owners, and there is no need to be reminded by old stubbornness!

The old stubborn replied coldly,

"Mr. Grued, according to the contract we signed, I read the terms for you."

Slaveowner:......

The three of them looked at the child lying on the ground and fell silent.

The dove steward raised his right hand and made a motion to wipe his neck.

"Idiot!"

The slave owner scolded,

"Kill him, Lao Tzu will pay 10 big gold coins!"

"At least!"

The dove steward proposed other methods, such as changing one child and compensating the other party for ten children.

"Yes, yes."

The old stubborn nodded slightly,

"As long as the other party agrees."

Dove Steward: ......

Think in the minds of orcs, you know what Ludon will do!

The dove's steward's eyes lit up, and he came up with a bad idea,

"It's better to... He said that he had a strange disease, and every day at this time, he would vomit and have abdominal pain..."

"Really?"

Old stubbornly looked at the child lying in the wooden cage and asked, "Do you have this strange disease?" โ€

The child tugged at the corners of his mouth weakly and sneered, "No." โ€

The old stubborn shook his head, "The Code says, don't talk nonsense. โ€

All:......

The scene fell silent again.

In fact, the slave owner had some indiscriminate moves that could be used on Luden.

In this place of Shenbang, it is impossible to gain a firm foothold without some backing.

Not everyone can live as required by the Holy Law.

The light of the Holy Codex shines like the sun, shining on every inch of land.

But

There are always areas that cannot be touched by the Code.

Ten big gold coins, that's a lot!

Just deal with Ludon...

The slave owner hesitated, but eventually gave up on the idea.

He had already inquired that Ludon had entered the city yesterday, with the convoy of Sheriff Berkeley.

If something happens to Luden, the slave owner doesn't want to face the wrath of a magistrate!

With this relationship, you must think twice before you make any move.

Just when the slave owner was at a loss,

A young man with bandages on his hands and a face bandage walked up to the wooden cage and looked at the slave owner.

"Hello, I'm Luden, and we've met this morning."

He introduced himself,

"I spent money to buy a slave before, and now I come to pick up the goods, can I start inspecting the goods?"
