Chapter 206: The Whip

"Ladies and gentlemen, the soldiers of these three arms are the gifts that our Akt Merchant Group has presented to you this time, I don't know if you are satisfied!"

"Satisfied!"

"Say it, just talk about the price!"

Of course, the nobles on the stage are very satisfied, these three arms, no matter which one they are, as long as they are in the bag, as long as they are not too lucky, they can make a lot of money in the southern expedition.

The aristocratic lords on the stage couldn't bear it anymore, and seeing that the host was still chattering, they asked directly.

"Yes, gentlemen, the villain will quote directly!"

"There are 50 pikemen in total, and they need 100 gold coins!"

"30 swordsmen, 150 gold coins!"

"20 longbowmen, 200 gold coins!"

"The above is their reserve price, I don't know which master is willing to give them a name!"

This so-called name is the meaning of buying, although the slave trade in this world is legal, but the slave owner also has a noble identity, in order to slightly modify the work under his hands, so the trade is more elegant, and the slaves do not have names, the moment they are trained by the slave owners, they only have a code name, only by the new master to buy, will get the master's name!

The host's words fell, and the crowd, both on the high platform and outside the fence, suddenly quieted down, obviously frightened by the price.

You must know that 200 gold coins, if you equip ordinary guards, thousands of people can easily equip them, but now you can only buy 20 is a longbowman!

The presenter, accustomed to such scenes, smiled and walked up to a pikeman, took out a short blade from his arms, and then made a 5-centimeter-long cut on the arm of a pikeman.

When the onlookers saw the host's actions, and when the sharp short blade slashed through the spearman's arm, especially the flesh on the slave soldier's arm that had been slightly turned out, they all felt that their arms were itchy and their scalps were numb.

Of course, the host's behavior is not because he is crazy, he is just to show the value of the slaves.

When the host took out the shortblade and placed it on the pikeman's arm, the pikeman didn't even blink his eyes, looking ahead like a sculpture.

And when the short blade slashed his arm, and the blood continued to flow out, the soldier was still unaware, and he was also flesh and blood, and none of the onlookers thought that they could do such endurance.

The host's operation, as well as the performance of the slave soldiers, finally stimulated the nobles on the stage again, and several nobles who couldn't bear it anymore spoke!

"Longbowman, I want it!"

"I want a longbowman too, I'll give you 201 gold coins!"

"I want a swordsman......"

As someone spoke, more and more people joined the competition, after all, even slave owners could not produce such slave soldiers who were almost dead soldiers every year.

Although there were only 100 people in the field, they were eliminated from 1,000 people and took 900 lives to cultivate.

However, the focus of everyone's scramble is on the two slave soldiers of the swordsman and the longbowman, because the people who will come to buy these slave soldiers are basically small nobles, and the small nobles are just the vanguard of the big nobles, and they will be used in siege, field battles, and sneak attacks, but when a large-scale frontal battle breaks out, the main force is still the infantry phalanx and cavalry under the big nobles.

Let the petty nobles have dozens of patchwork stragglers to fight against the infantry phalanx of the regular army, and it will only be poked into hedgehogs.

And the longbowmen and swordsmen were also officially adapted to the combat needs of the minor nobles.

The 50-person spear phalanx is too limited for the little nobles, and can only be used in the open field field, so that it can exert the greatest power, and the cost performance is not high, if it is scattered and used to charge, it is better to recruit a few more guards yourself, after all, the spear of the pikeman is 5 meters long.

Now there is a better location, of course, it is more cost-effective, which is more in line with the wishes of the nobles.

When the host saw that the nobles on the stage were fighting for the archers and the longbowmen, his heart blossomed with joy, and he did not slack off, and immediately said: "Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me, since all the lords value the longbowmen, then we will first determine the name of the longbowman." ”

"That old man just sold 201 gold coins, I don't know if there are any other old men who have bids."

Invited so many nobles to the stage to eat and drink well, this Ackert is for such an effect, 200 gold coins are also profitable for them, but everyone is happy to make more money, so when there are many parties who fancy the same 'goods', it is when their merchant group makes a profit through the higher bidder.

"205 gold coins, I'm going to make this longbowman!"

As soon as the host's words fell, a pot-bellied nobleman spoke.

"210 Gold Coins......

"215 Gold Coins......

All of a sudden, seven or eight nobles on the high platform continued to bid, and the archers who originally only needed 200 gold coins had been raised to 240 gold coins.

In fact, Gervais was also very hot when he saw those longbowmen, after all, these longbowmen were good at swordsmanship and archery, and among ordinary soldiers, they could be regarded as the king of soldiers in this world, but when he heard the price of the auction, he thought that his guards also had muskets, so he dispelled this idea.

"250 gold!"

Just as the nobles bidding were silent, and the 20 longbowmen were about to be taken into the pocket by the one who had bid 240 gold coins, the bidding sound sounded again in the field, and this voice was still familiar to Gervais and Pat, it was Kevin's voice.

"250 gold! That lord bid 250 gold coins, is there any lord to bid? ”

The moderator excitedly asked.

But obviously 240 gold coins is already the limit of those nobles, the host shouted three times and saw that no one bid again, although there was some regret, but there was still a bright smile on his face, and then said respectfully to Kevin: "Congratulations to this young man for the opportunity to give names to 20 archers!" ”

Soon, three attendants came to Kevin's side with a delicate tray, and for a while everyone's eyes were focused on Kevin, Kevin stood up from his seat in high spirits, and then took out three money bags from his arms, counted some gold coins from one of the bags, and took the three money bags to the attendant.

The three attendants returned to the tent with the tray of gold coins, and after a few moments the host came out of the room, and in his hand there was a small whip, which was quite good-looking, but it was a little short, only thirty centimeters long.

The host walked quickly to the high platform, held the whip in both hands and handed it to Kevin!

Kevin took the whip and proudly raised it high and looked around, especially when he saw Gervais and Pat, his eyes were full of provocation.
