Chapter 264: : The talent in the slaves, the transaction is over (1/2)

Among these slaves, Zong Shen found a total of three interesting people.

Among them was a middle-aged man with a stubborn face and a dull expression, who saw Zong Shen only showing a smirk. He turned out to be a hero-level talent with excellent qualifications.

Relying on the hints of the strategy, Zong Shen saw through his disguise, and at the same time knew his origins, as well as the beginning and the end of becoming a slave.

His name is Howy, and he comes from the neighboring Nord Kingdom and the Goty Castle under the giant city of Wabel. The original confidant of the owner of the castle, Viscount Ektor, is responsible for managing the seven villages near Goty Castle. He has been serving Viscount Ektor for more than ten years without any problems in taxation and farming.

Tax tenancy is one of the most important sources of income besides commerce in Goti Castle. The miscellaneous taxes paid by seven villages each year amount to more than 200,000 Continental Common Dinars. He is responsible for taxes and accounts. Bad, this fatness will naturally cause the rest of the Viscount's confidants to worry about it.

It's just that he has done things safely for so many years, and has not made any mistakes, so that other people can't fault it.

Viscount Ektor has three children, an eldest son, an eldest daughter, and a twelve-year-old daughter. In addition to the taxation of the villages under the castle of Goti, Howe is also responsible for teaching Ike The children of Viscount Thor are equivalent to the role of a private teacher.

The three children of the Viscount are basically from Professor Howie, and when they are 14 years old, they will be sent to the academy in the giant city of Waber to study.

The eldest son and the eldest daughter are all safe, and the problem lies with the younger daughter. People in this world are generally precocious. There are a lot of parents who become parents at the age of 16, and the younger daughter is already in love at the age of 12. Howie, the teacher who often taught her to read and write next to him.

The youngest daughter of the Viscount had an appointment with Howie privately. The two agreed to meet in the small woods near the castle. As for Howie, naturally, he did not agree to the appointment because he had an idea for the youngest daughter of the Viscount. He just wanted to make it clear.

Howie knew that this kind of thing often had to pay the price of life. The heirs of the little nobles would only marry other nobles to expand the influence of the family and at the same time increase the nobles’ social circle.

This continent is too vast. There are many things like dog blood. The nobles are not as noble as the commoners think. They are also stupid and make mistakes, even more absurd than the commoners.

Howie naturally knew this, and he was trying his best to avoid it, but he was still recruited. This incident was passed to the ears of Viscount Ektor's confidant through the close maid of the youngest daughter of the Viscount.

So when they met, he took the private army of the castle and captured Howie directly.

When he was brought to Viscount Ektor, the little girl was pure-hearted, and she was caught out of her inner thoughts in a few strokes. Even if Viscount Ektor valued Howie again, he would not be left behind.

After several tossings, Howie was sold to a slave merchant under the secret operation of the manager.

During the year, he had suffered a lot, traveled through multiple giant cities, traveled tens of thousands of miles, and finally came to the kingdom of Avalon. Howie had been pretending to be stupid, choosing a suitable master for himself.

Those who have raised a large number of slaves in captivity, the experienced fergies and big landlords are not among his choices, because these people have rich experience in animal slavery, and they may not have the chance to escape until they die.

With the ability to play stupid, he became a nail-biter among slaves.

You can’t kill, you can’t sell it, you can’t sell it. If you don’t kill it and keep it in your hands, there will be an expense. Even if the slave’s status is low, the basic food needed for survival still needs to be provided. Not small.

Just when the original slave merchant was considering whether to kill Howie directly, a turning point appeared. He met a colleague who was out of stock, so it was like Howie transferred it to this colleague at a low price, and this receiver was Pakistan. Mogo.

The story has twists and turns, but it cannot hide the fact that Howie is a smart and outstanding hero.

This guy is very smart and self-disciplined, and he is extremely indifferent to his desires.

He was able to manage the tedious taxation of Viscount Ektor for more than ten years. During this period, he was not only meticulous, but he had never been corrupted. It was enough for his opponents to find his flaws in more than ten years. .

If it hadn't been for the little daughter of the Viscount who had moved her heart, this guy would still serve in the castle of Goti.

At this time, Howie, seeing Zongshen keep looking at him, couldn't help but secretly say horrible in his heart.

He had observed Zongshen's territory in a prison cart. In his eyes, it was still a very rudimentary armed settlement. Not to mention becoming a state city or a castle level, it would take a lot of effort to form a village.

The primitive accumulation of population is a process that takes time. Unless it is a large-scale kingdom war, it is not easy to accumulate enough population.

The time for real big development is usually when the war breaks out. Only then will there be a chance to obtain a large number of people at one time, and the number of displaced people will greatly increase.

So this kind of territory, for example, is extremely short of basic labor, which is a basic judgment he has reached.

Unexpectedly, Zong Shen would have spotted him at a glance, which made Howie hesitate.

The surrounding arrow towers and the ancient trees that were obviously not normal made him a little hesitant.

But Zong Shen didn't think so much. He pointed his finger at Howie and looked at Bamogo.

”Mr. Barmogo, how do you sell this slave?”

Bamogo looked in the direction of his fingers, and when he saw Zongshen Howi, his face was happy.

Good guys! This slave whose father didn't love his mother was finally attracted.

However, the joy on his face faded in an instant, for fear of offending Zong Shen.

After thinking about it, in order to further establish a partnership with Zong Shen, Bamogo decided to sell Howie to him at a cost price, and at the same time told Zong Shen the true situation.

”My lord, this slave's name is Howe, from the Nordic Empire, he is 35 years old and is in his prime.”

”But this guy seems silly in the hands of the merchant of the first slave.”

”Now I only smile, I don't have any labor ability, are you sure you want him?”

Bamogo is also a wise man, he chose to tell the truth in exchange for Zong Shen's favor with him.

Zong Shen nodded, with a smile on his face.

”Make a price, I'll fall in love with him.”

Although he didn't say much, Bamogo still saw the determination in his words.

”Well, my lord, I will sell him to you at cost.”

”At the time of receipt, it was 350 Continental General Dinars, plus the food expenses during this period, you can pay me 370 Dinars.”

Zong Shen smiled and narrowed his eyes, and nodded readily.

”Deal, let him out, he will be mine from now on.”

”I have to pick a few people and pay the bill together later.”

He is in a good mood. 370 dinars are more expensive than a prairie cow. At such a low price, he can get a hero-level talent with excellent qualifications, which is a huge profit!

Bamogo naturally didn't have any opinion. Although there were some small doubts in his heart, he waved his hand happily, and let the men behind him open the prison wagon and roughly grabbed Howie out.

Howie's body is similar to Zong Shen, but because of long-term wandering and lack of food, he is thinner than Zong Shen.
