Chapter 65: The Formation of the Team (1)

Seeing his hesitation, Morgan immediately guessed his concerns.

Then, as if he had been prepared, he took out a photograph of the glue, which was his own contract for hiring an extraordinary retinue......

His "candor and honesty" was hard for Gleilynt to accept.

What is this?

Give you a handle of my own, so you don't have to worry about me using the same handle to blackmail you?

This is certainly reassuring to Glerint.

However, it is very difficult for him to understand Morgan's initiative to "give people authority".

Regardless, Morgan's honesty gave Glerint no reason to excuse himself, and he quickly signed a contract with Shirley, and then paid 1,800 pounds and signed two documents concerning the seals.

The reason why he did not pay the full amount was because Glerint had less than 2,000 pounds in cash, and he had to withdraw the rest from his account to pay.

In addition, he signed a contract with Shirley as an ordinary servant with no extraordinary powers. The main purpose of this thing is to give Shirley a reasonable identity on the surface, so as to prevent her existence from affecting Glerint's marriage......

"Captain, I still want to go to an extraordinary party and buy some materials or something."

"I wonder if you have any way?"

After accepting the photo that Morgan took the initiative to give, Glerint quickly increased his sense of identification with him, and the two of them now violated the laws of the kingdom after all.

Therefore, he frankly showed a certain trust.

It's a pity that Morgan gives two secret gatherings of the Extraordinary, one on Monday night, and the other on an irregular basis. It's not today, it's Friday.

In addition to the extraordinary gatherings, he inquired about the location of the local secret slave market.

The Kingdom of Rune had actually abolished slavery a few years ago, but in the colonies, there were still a large number of prisoners of war that were difficult to deal with, and secretly there would be no such slave markets, but they were often not protected by the laws of the kingdom and could not appear in the open.

As a person who has traveled from the past in modern society, Glelint still has a certain sympathy for the oppressed people in the colony, and for the natives and slaves. However, he doesn't think he's the "chosen one" to change the world, so he's often just a shallow level of sympathy, and he doesn't really want to change all that.

Just like the 2,000 pounds a month he now enjoys, isn't that all the money he gets from being a bourgeoisie and exploiting ordinary laborers? But as a vested interest, he himself is unwilling to change.

After reading the original book, he was of course very sympathetic to those low-level laborers, especially the "faceless ones" buried by the haze in Beckland, but he would not stand up to change all this! At most, it is just a covert beating of the side drum and making some insignificant influence within one's ability.

In the same way, he will not face "Ince Zangwill" head-on for the sake of Dunn and for the sake of Klein.

Yes, he does love the original characters, but that's only in the books. And now the objective fact is that I have no friendship with them. No matter how much you like a character in a book, would you be willing to give your life for it?

Grelynt was reluctant anyway.

Morgan did not ask Glelint the purpose of finding the slave market, but directly gave the specific location and how to connect.

After asking about the location of the slave market, Gleilynt continued:

"I wonder how I'm going to get the 'bribe-taker' potion recipe?"

In addition to Jim's other potion ingredient, the Heart of the Mutant Rava Octopus, Glerint's current hunger is the "Bribe-Bribe" potion formula.

Morgan didn't answer directly, but Athena shook her head and said:

"I can sell it to you right now, but it doesn't really make much sense."

Without waiting for Gleilynt to ask, she took the initiative to explain:

"Normally, potion recipes and potion main ingredients can only be exchanged for merit. However, because the upper echelons do not prohibit members from privately buying recipes and materials to complete promotions. So quite a few of our members sell recipes to each other at low prices, after all, it's cost-free. ”

"It is precisely for this reason that there are very many members in the entire Southern Continent who know their next or even the next two or three sequences of potion recipes. And since most of our members are 'lawyers' and 'arbiters', materials for these two pathways are very difficult to obtain in colonial areas. Because usually when we encounter such materials in secret gatherings, whether we need them or not, we will buy them directly, and then there will be a considerable number of members who will be willing to buy it at a premium. ”

This did not come as a surprise to Glerint.

Regardless, he bought the "bribe-taker" potion recipe from Athena for a very low price of £500:

Extraordinary materials: "Weeping Baby" flowers, weird-faced cannabis crystals. Auxiliary materials: 5 drops of golden mandala juice, 5 drops of black mandala juice, 4 drops of psychedelic essential oil, 80 ml of red wine.

As for the higher-order potion recipes, he didn't try to buy them from Morgan. This is because he doesn't need it now, and the second is that he can use some knowledge to exchange it from Klein later, and there is no need to spend an extra amount of money for this.

In addition, he spent £100 to buy the recipe for the "Assassin" potion from Morgan.

After all, Shirley is still a half-finished product of an "assassin......

…………

In the evening, Gleilynt withdrew 2,000 pounds from the bank, paid the rest of the money, and returned to the inn with Shirley, who had been his since the signing of the deed.

The next day, he chose to go to get acquainted with housing and hire servants.

At the same time, he gave Shirley the task of going to the slave market to buy two or three young slaves. His goal was to train two or three Extraordinaires, and now Shirley was the only one.

The reason why he was reluctant to choose slaves by himself was that Glelynt still had to rent a house, and on the other hand, he was unwilling to face the kind of transactions that were contrary to social civilization.

It is also quite ridiculous to say, on the one hand, he is keen to buy slaves and train followers, and on the other hand, he feels that this is not civilized enough, and is unwilling to take the initiative to face it.

When renting an apartment, Glerint considered that his current status was mainly a "major" and no longer a "viscount". Therefore, he felt that he could not use too luxurious mansions, so he simply rented a three-storey garden house, and the rent was only 127 pounds a year - which also included the use of a full set of wooden furniture, which can be said to be quite cost-effective.

At the same time, it was very cheap to hire servants here compared to Bakeland, who hired a cook, a butler, and two mans and two maids, all of whom together earned a total of 96 pounds a year.

Of course, the servant here must not be as good as Beckland's ability to serve.

Although Gleilynt did not like to be overly attentive to service, he was perfectly receptive to hiring servants. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to clean such a large house alone.

Joan, who was traveling with him, was also going to rent a house, but when she saw that there was a lot of vacancy in the house that Glerint rented, she simply asked Glerint to sublet two spare rooms. In this way, she also saved the cost of hiring many additional servants.

Since she only sublet two rooms, Gleilynt only charged her for a rent of 5 soles per week.

As for the increased workload of the servants, Joan also gave the six of them an additional fee for their services totaling 6 soles per week.

In fact, it is completely okay not to give extra money. After all, when Glerint hired them to serve, he was paid according to the amount of work he did to serve the family.

Morgan's information was quite reliable, and in the afternoon, Shirley brought back to Glerlint a pair of native slave siblings who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
