At midnight, Kevin and Tang Mo sat in the carriage home.

Although tired, Kevin stroked the gemstone ring on his right hand, and his heart was full of joy that his wish had come true.

The gift he had carefully prepared - Tang Mo finally came in handy.

The third-level nobles who came to visit tonight were very satisfied with Tang Mo's performance, the other party was a history lover, and he ignored the diligence of the people around him all night and had a good conversation with Tang Mo.

Afterwards, the other party even expressed his willingness to "invite" Tang Mo to their home as a tutor, but Kevin still declined.

A one-time relationship, where can it compare to a long-term relationship.

Although the other party felt sorry for not being able to get Tang Mo, he still accepted a gift from Kevin, a beautiful platinum necklace worth three thousand five hundred silver coins.

The other party is willing to accept the gift, which shows that the other party has hooked up.

It began to rain, and the raindrops fell on the windows of the carriage, making everything around it blurry and dreamy.

Through the window of the carriage, he saw that the carriage was moving away from the venue of the party, which was still brightly lit, but the noise had faded away, and finally fell silent.

Other nobles also have apostles, but although their apostles have good memory, they are still much worse than their own apostles.

Otherwise, why would the third-level nobles catch Tang Mo and chat vigorously.

Looking at the high-rise building of the venue with dim lights, Kevin didn't reluctantly turn his head until the high-rise building was completely blocked, and said to Tang Mo sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Tang Mo, you really helped me a lot today." ”

"You're welcome."

The apostles were expressionless people, and even when it came to something big, they would not have any expressions.

This performance gives them a sense of composure, but it is also difficult to understand what they are thinking.

Just when Kevin wanted to say a few more words to Tang Mo and see the other party's attitude, the carriage he was riding in came to a sudden stop, and the huge inertia made him almost fly to the opposite side, but fortunately he grabbed the handrail on the side.

Straightening his clothes, he restrained the anger in his heart, poked his head out and shouted to the coachman, "What's the matter?" ”

"My lord, someone is blocking the way." The coachman said in trepidation.

"Just run it over! You stop so quickly, what if you hurt me and my guests! ”

"She's still holding a baby."

“…… Ask her what she wants to do. ”

The coachman stepped forward and whispered a few words, and the woman's voice of gratitude rang out.

Then, the other party came to the window of the carriage, stood on tiptoe, and said in a nervous tone: "My name, my name is ......."

Kevin glanced at Tang Mo on the side, the other party was still expressionless, but his gaze had already fallen on the woman.

If it was usual, he wouldn't let this woman come over at all, but now that Tang Mo was by his side, he could only endure the sour smell on the other party's body, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and asked, "Just talk about the business." ”

The woman smiled in horror and then quickly said, "My husband works in your quarry, and he broke his leg from a falling stone before, and you gave me four silver coins as compensation......"

"Is it too little?" Kevin asked with a frown.

"It's a lot, and I don't give money anywhere else. I mean, can I take over my husband's job! I'm strong, I was born a pony, I have a lot of stamina, I ......"

Kevin glanced at the baby in the woman's arms.

People in this world are all animals at birth, and they mature and grow up soon after birth, except for the aristocratic class.

The aristocracy was born human and grew up to be human, a characteristic that separates the aristocracy and the human race, and is also a proof that the nobility originated from the noble lineage of the ancient priests.

Even the lowest, the thirteenth-level nobles, were born human.

However, if you mix with the lower classes, then no matter how noble the blood, the last born is an animal, which also completely isolates the possibility of intermarriage between the two classes.

He frowned and looked at the pony in his arms, who was sleeping soundly and didn't hear his mother pleading.

Although he was very poor, his mother protected him very well, even if his mother was soaked and shivering from the cold at this time, the child was still carefully protected.

Taking out a handful of copper coins from his arms, Kevin threw the copper coins in front of the other party, suppressed his unhappiness and said, "Go to the quarry tomorrow, remember to deal with your child." ”

"Yes, sir! Thank you, sir! ”

The carriage drove away, and Kevin looked at the woman behind him kneeling in the muddy water to pick up copper coins, and felt a little better.

The apostles of the gods are all benevolent people, and their actions just now must have added a lot of points to themselves.

Looking at Tang Mo with an expressionless face, Kevin pretended to be reserved and said, "I can ignore her, who told me to be kind-hearted." ”

Tang Mo looked at the woman outside the car window, and sighed faintly after half a ring.

It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, although I have long known that the aristocratic system was a wicked cannibalistic system, but actually seeing it, it still shocked Tang Mo.

He knew that he was playing a game, but the real scene still made Tang Mo feel that the era was really too dark.

"Mr. Tang Mo?"

Tang Mo, who was pondering, was interrupted, looked at Kevin in front of him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I want to say that you have done me a great favor today and I don't know how to thank you. Excuse me, what can I do for you? ”

If it was before, Tang Mo might ask the other party to listen to his own words more and let him explain some questions to the other party.

But now, Tang Mo suddenly felt that he couldn't communicate with the other party.

The other party has become accustomed to his aristocratic status, and even the little bit that peeks out of his fingers has become a symbol of his benevolence. He already has his own information cocoon, and it is difficult to break out.

After thinking for a while, he asked: "I have two conditions, the first is that I want to hold a reading salon. ”

"Do you know what it does?"

"Borrow your study and talk to the other noble children so that they can learn history."

"Hmmm......"

After thinking about it for a moment, Kevin felt that this was feasible.

Tang Mo's reputation has already been established in high society, and many people know that there is a talented scholar here, and they also know that many big people like to study history.

Holding a salon is equivalent to establishing a bond that allows him to better connect with these great nobles, and perhaps to take his family a step further in his lifetime.

So, he readily agreed to the proposal, and then asked, "What about the second one?" ”

"Give me a permit, and I'd like to visit the quarry once in a while."

It's a bit strange, but it's not impossible.

After all, the Apostle can ignore the Shadow Particles, and it doesn't hurt to let the other person go once in a while.

Moreover, the welfare benefits of his quarry are well-known in Faitdu, he never defaults on wages, he will serve meals once a day, and he will give some compensation for work injuries and then be dismissed, which is a very conscientious place.

Riding back in the carriage, Tang Mo's two requests were quickly met.

The next day, the study was cleared, a wall was opened, a new carpet was laid on the floor, and delicate snacks and drinks were served free of charge, striving to give the best experience to the guests.

When the salon opened, the first guest was a bombshell, that is, the third-level nobleman who had recruited Tang Mo.

There are only seven first-class nobles in Legal, twenty-one second-level nobles, and sixty-three third-level nobles, and less than a hundred of them are the apex of the nobility, and they are out-and-out big people.

Although he only came to give away the fruit basket and sat for a while before leaving, this salon still caused a sensation, making this salon full of people from the moment it opened, and also making Kevin realize that he had really picked up a treasure.

Tang Mo was still expressionless, but after talking with the others, he was also silently paying attention to the people who came here, and then found that there seemed to be no suitable one.

He originally wanted to see if there were any real people in the aristocracy who could empathize with the bottom, but the butt decided the head, and although these young people said it nicely, they were not of great use.

So, he focused his attention on the quarry.

When he reached the quarry through a long pipe, he found it smoky, and thousands of workers were digging marble in the open quarry, transporting the bulky stones to the camp with simple tools for processing, and then sending them to the legal field.

The environment can only be described as harsh, with dust everywhere and a single mistake in digging stones can crush workers to death, but it is one of the few places in the neighborhood with high wages and attracts a large number of outsiders to work here.

After knowing that Tang Mo was here to visit, a worker was elected to serve as Tang Mo's guide.

The other party is in his thirties, the same age as Kevin, but his appearance is completely different.

He was dark-skinned, athletic, and at the bottom of the forty-seven-year average lifespan, he looked still in the prime of life, and he smiled heartily and kindly.

Shaking hands with Tang Mo, he said enthusiastically, "Are you Lord Kevin's advisor?" I'm Delai, welcome to Mr. Kevin's property, would you like something to drink? Is it okay to have only water? ”

Tang Mo looked at the other party expressionlessly.

When he came into contact with the other party, he had already opened the other party's data panel, and then found that the other party's information could only be described as explosive.

The NPCs here also have six-dimensional attributes, and the average of ordinary people's six-dimensional is 10, but the average value of the one in front of him is as high as 19, and the luxury of the panel shows that the other party is definitely an elite.

High stats mean high penalties, but the opponent is not a player, but an NPC.

On the other party's information panel, two high-quality blessings were placed there, making Tang Mo instantly feel a sense of domineering.

[Lucky]: After the age of thirty, your luck is incredible.

[Leader]: You are blessed with leadership skills.

These three points alone are shocking enough, but what makes Tang Mo feel incredible the most is that there is such a sentence in the background of the other party's characters:

[He is Kevin's half-brother.] 】

This sentence made Tang Mo feel that there were a lot of stories behind this person, and the other party might be the main line of this world.

Immediately take a screenshot of the other party's description and throw it into the group, and the players in the group will instantly fry the pot.

[Old Tang, come on, allow you to break off today, you have to take down this person no matter what! ] 】

[Don't go, we'll go into the quarry right away, we need to see what the hell is going on with this man?] 】

[I'll take it, hide the easter eggs, Fangcheng Studio, you hide the easter eggs, right! ] Such an important NPC is hiding here. 】

[Fangcheng Studio, there are really you! ] 】

[Good guy, I can only say good guy! After doing so many games, I still haven't changed my original intention, right? 】

Subsequently, they also had a question.

In this extremely strange world setting of the birth system, how did this guy end up here?

The only explanation is that Kevin and Delai's father had a secret affection for a female worker, and they abandoned Delai after the chaos.

Either way, there's a big drama involved here that needs to be savored.

When Tang Mo cut the screen to communicate with the others, Delai saw that Tang Mo had not moved for a long time, and couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the other party.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Tang Mo to come back to his senses, look at Delai and ask, "Excuse me, what kind of work do you hold here?" ”

"I'm a foreman, managing the workers' shifts and calculating the pay. Don't worry, I've completed today's task and can take a look with you. What do you want to know? ”

"Can I go to the worker's house first?"

"Yes, over here."

Unlike lumberyards, quarries have separate dormitories so that workers don't have to go home every day.

The structure of the dormitory is very simple, the simple stone built a stone house, and the strong man who finished it rested in the dormitory, and looked at Tang Mo who followed Delai with a puzzled gaze.

Leading Tang Mo into a separate room, Delai turned on the gas lamp, and then said to Tang Mo: "This is my single room, and each foreman can have his own single room." ”

"How many foremen are there?"

"Twenty-one, fifty quarrymen under each foreman."

"Are there any women?"

"There is one of them, her husband was injured two days ago, but fortunately, Master Kevin was kind enough to let her come back to work on the job. I saw that it was not easy for her to take care of the children, so I asked her to help with the laundry and sundries. Well, she's coming. ”

Outside the window, the woman Tang Mo had seen last night walked over.

She carried her child on her back, nodded timidly when she saw Delai, and said humbly: "My lord......"

"Don't call me sir, just call me foreman."

"Okay, Foreman, I'm done washing my clothes, don't you really need me to transport the stones?"

"No, just keep an eye on your child. Yo, this pony is so cute. ”

After teasing the child, Delai asked the woman to rest, and turned his head to see Tang Mo flipping through the books on the shelves in the room.

Unlike the expensive books in Kai's library, the books here are crudely made, and some are even carved directly into the wooden panels.

The books in the study are almost untouched, and instead they are full of gray-black marks and look like they are often flipped.

The text of some books is crooked, but the handwriting gradually becomes clean, and it even looks beautiful in the end.

Finding that Tang Mo was flipping through the books, Delai said embarrassedly: "I copied these books by myself. My mother worked as a nanny for Master Kevin, and I occasionally helped out when I was a child, and it was at that time that I learned to write and do arithmetic. ”

"What about your mother?"

"Already dead."

"It's a pity."

Delai's life experience was broken here, which made Tang Mo feel a little pity.

But it doesn't matter, they still have a long way to go.
