Chapter 31 Uncle and Aunt
As he got closer to the store, his brows could not help but wrinkle.
There is a black iron cage about one meter square outside the store, and a girl about five or six years old is locked inside.
The little girl was sleeping with a dirty rag in the iron cage, her mouth was slightly open, and a little saliva leaked out.
Just looking at her expression would make people think she was sleeping soundly on a soft bed.
at this time,
A thin figure suddenly came over from the left and walked past him towards the cage.
looked up and saw that it was the girl he had just rescued on the road, Renee.
Colin's footsteps paused slightly. He looked at Renee, and then at the little girl in the iron cage who looked somewhat similar to Renee, and instantly understood.
"Get out of the way, don't get in your way!"
The slave trader behind suddenly ran to Renee's side and hurriedly urged:
"There are strict rules for buying and selling slaves. What's the use of you coming to me every day? I'm just a worker, you might as well find a way to save money. When you save enough money, you can naturally buy your sister back! "
Then he approached Colin diligently and asked with a smile:
"Sir, I don't know what kind of slaves you need? I just got a good batch of goods here recently."
"Do you have a slave here who can drive a carriage?" Colin asked.
"Yes, my lord!" The slave trader replied quickly.
"Go and bring them out for me to see."
"Yes, my lord!"
Colin looked at the slave trader who turned and ran behind him, stopped him again, pointed to the cage with the little girl in front of him, and said:
"Open this cage first."
"Okay!" The slave trader did not hesitate, took out a bunch of keys from his arms, and found the corresponding one to open the iron cage.
Click.
The sound of unlocking sounded.
Renee just came to her senses and subconsciously wanted to go to her sister, but the next second, she hurriedly knelt down again.
"Thank you, my lord, your character is admirable, and your generosity will last forever..."
Renee rambled, her voice was clear but a little stumbling, and it seemed that she was not good at words.
"Get up." Colin waved his hand, interrupting her lame compliment.
"Go and see your sister."
Renee didn't listen this time, but insisted on repeating all the compliments she knew from beginning to end before slowly walking towards her sister behind her.
Colin smiled slightly, although these words were only compliments.
But who doesn’t like to hear good things?
...The girl in front of her is a person who knows how to be grateful.
At this time, the slave trader also came out with a few slaves.
glanced around, and there was nothing to choose from.
After listening to the introduction, Colin randomly selected the most reliable and oldest male slave.
He himself said that he was about 40 years old. According to the slave trader, he was also the best horse-drawn carriage driver among these people.
"Sir, here it is." The slave trader handed the deed to Colin with both hands.
Colin stretched out his hand and took it. There were two in total, one for the little girl Demi Lydia, and one for the groom Arthur.
Arthur has no last name, only a first name.
The two people add up to a total of fifty gold coins, which is equivalent to one-twentieth of the magic stone.
Colin turned to look at Arthur who was standing quietly in front of him, thought for a moment, and took out some gold coins from his pocket.
"Can you buy a carriage, take the money to buy a carriage and come back."
"Yes, Master." Arthur replied.
"Remember the address where I live. I'll come directly after I buy the carriage." He added.
"remember."
Seeing Arthur nodding, Colin waved his hand in satisfaction, urging him to go and return quickly.
"By the way, do you still have slaves here who are good at cooking?"
He turned to the slave trader again and asked, he almost forgot to buy a cook.
"Yes, I'll bring them to your lord." The slave trader hurried in again.
While waiting.
He turned and walked slowly towards Sister Renee.
At this time, Demi was awake, and was hugging her sister and giggling. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, and it looked like she had just finished crying.
"grown ups."
Seeing Colin approaching, Renee hurriedly greeted him. She has been following Colin's side.
Colin nodded slightly in response, leaned down and smiled at Demi, rubbing her head.
He liked children in his previous life, of course, except for those who are not cute and bear children.
Although Demi's skin is a little dirty, she can still see that she is fair and has delicate facial features, like a delicate doll, which is very pleasing.
In this world, kindness is a luxury.
But it would still make him feel good if he could do a good thing at random like this once in a while.
After all, he didn't pay any price, just some insignificant gold coins for him.
Colin's smile is gentle and sunny, and he looks handsome.
Demi was a little timid at first, but now she mustered up the courage to return a smile to Colin.
Colin stood up satisfied.
"Sir, here comes the slave you want who can cook."
At this time, the slave trader also came over with new slaves.
All women are different in height, short, fat and thin... The only thing that is the same is the numb eyes.
is like dead fish sold in the market.
Colin frowned slightly and couldn't help but complain again.
I don't know how to train, these slaves are all numb like a mold.
…Others don’t know how to feel.
But in his own opinion, he is not interested in buying.
"What will you cook?" He still asked aloud.
"West Horse."
"What else?" Colin frowned slightly.
Xima is to add water and refuel, and stew the ingredients into a mushy paste.
"Small fish, mango, mango..."
"Stop." Colin interrupted her, paused and said again.
"Give you a goat, what can you do."
"This..." The female slave suddenly got stuck, she had never thought about such a problem.
"Sheep's head is boiled in soup, the fat and thin lamb can be roasted directly, and the thinner ones can be stewed with the lamb bones, fished out and deboned, torn into small strips, and eaten with seasonings. There are many other lamb chops and lamb legs. way of doing."
Renee suddenly made a sound, and she stared at Colin with pleading in her eyes.
"My lord, I learned cooking from my mother, who is a chef, since I was a child. I wonder if I can be an adult's cook?"
After the surprise of being with her sister subsided, anxiety swept her mind again.
Renee knew very well, even though Demi was back with her now.
But then what?
She has no ability to prevent Demi from being sold again... In fact, she can't even protect herself.
'Wizards...awesome and terrifying. ’
'But my parents are dead, and I can't live as carefree as before... You have to seize the opportunity, take care of yourself, and protect your sister! ’
She looked at Colin expectantly, cheering for herself silently in her heart.
Colin was startled for a moment, then smiled quickly and replied to Renee:
"sure."
It's just a cook, it doesn't matter who you choose.
Renee in front of her looks cute and pleasing to the eye, and from what she said, she seems to be good at cooking.
What hesitation did he have?
Afraid that Renee will bring her sister?
Colin smirked at his own thought.
'You are a dignified middle-level wizard, and you are afraid that you can't afford two maids? ’
The cook Renee asked for was not a hired hand. From the moment she became Colin's cook, she became Colin's personal property.
is also a slave contract.
Colin took her through the formalities related to the slave contract, then turned around and asked:
"Are you going to go back and pack your things?"
"...No, no need." Renee replied hesitantly.
"Sister, why don't you go back? I want my little bear." Demi next to him asked softly.
"..." Renee looked embarrassed and comforted: "Sister will make another one for you later?"
"...Okay." Demi was obviously a little depressed, but still responded to Renee with a smile.
She is an obedient child who never cries or makes trouble even in a cage.
Renee bent down and hugged her.
"Is there any trouble over there?" Colin asked aloud.
"...Nothing, my lord."
"Renei." Colin's tone became a little stern, "My first rule here is that you answer whatever I ask!"
Renee was terrified by him.
"Sir...I..."
"...Don't be nervous, just remember next time." Colin's tone softened.
For the oppressed ordinary people in this world, he does not need to be deliberately harsh to establish prestige. They have long engraved class dignity into their bones and blood.
So sometimes being moderately gentle can be more convincing.
Renee slowly spoke the reason under his gaze.
…
"So the former hooligans belonged to the Perco gang. You are afraid that they will wait for me at your house, and your uncle and your aunt have already occupied your bakery, so there is nothing to clean up."
"Yes, my lord."
"Let's go, lead the way." Colin urged with a chuckle.
Renee was still a little hesitant.
Colin was not angry, but said:
"My second rule here is to be obedient, listen to my words..."
"Yes, my lord!" Renee nodded hurriedly.
Colin didn't say more, and let them lead the way.
Now that he has become his own servant, if there are some things that have been entangled in the past, he will take advantage of this time to solve them for them.
On the one hand, it will save trouble later, on the other hand, it can be regarded as a blessing.
Ask for a ticket!
