Noble Emblem

The York tribe is a very tragic nation. More than three hundred years ago, they were once a small country next to Hollevan.

Although their country is small, their people are extremely capable of fighting, good at singing and dancing, and are also hospitable.

But just because they were too hospitable, they were destroyed by Huolaiwen. There are only a few thousand citizens of more than 60,000 countries left. These thousands of people were captured as slaves, divided into several batches, resold in the country of Holevin, and then struggled to survive. No one has counted how many people are left in the York tribe, but Lloyd and others know very well that their group of York tribesmen should be the last ethnic group.

Lloyd is the only literate person among the York tribe. The teacher who taught him to read was also the only literate person in the previous generation of the York tribe, because it was too difficult for slaves to learn writing after hard work. Only children with extremely amazing talents, such as an unforgettable memory, will be chosen to become the next generation's inheritors of writing.

Now among the York tribesmen, only Lloyd is the one who knows the history of his nation. The others only know that they are York tribesmen. As for where they come from, where their hometown is, and why they became slaves, they know nothing.

As a inheritor of writing, Royd has been paying attention to the changes in the ethnic group. However, because he is a slave, the quality of the children in the ethnic group is getting lower and lower. In the past ten years, he has not found a child suitable for learning writing. .

When Lloyd thought he was about to lose his inheritance, he unexpectedly got an unexpected surprise.

A very kind nobleman bought them. The reason why Lloyd thought that the other person was a kind person was because this nobleman, their new owner, actually let them take a bath and gave them food. He also gave them hemp noodles to make their own clothes.

Lloyd didn't understand any big principles, but he knew very well that the reason why people behave as humans is because they can have a clean body and have clothes to cover their bodies. Otherwise, they are no different from wild beasts.

And the new owner sent linen clothes. And asking them to buy dry food is not treating others as human beings, what else could it be. Although the master seems to be hard to talk to, the other party is a noble, a high-ranking spell-casting noble. It would be strange if he didn't have some majesty and temper.

Lloyd walked on the street with three of his kind. Because the slave inscription is carved on the back, they put on their clothes at this time. It's no different from ordinary people.

Although he is a slave, Royd often helped other masters buy supplies in the past, so he has a relatively good understanding of the supply conditions in the market.

More than 700 people need to consume the minimum amount of food in a day. Lloyd is also very clear about this. He first goes to the cart dealer to buy a few donkey carts, then hires a few people, and then goes to the grain store to buy the cheapest one, which of course is The most unpalatable rations.

When these carts of food were transported back to the cave. When Lloyd saw the numb tribesmen, they all looked over.

This is a good thing. Lloyd knew very well that the tribesmen had not reacted much to anything for a long time. They just lived like wild beasts. The only thing that was better than wild beasts was that they knew how to speak.

But now, the tribesmen have clean bodies. There are new clothes to wear, and they gradually begin to show their human side.

"Let the children come over and eat something." Lloyd said to his tribe: "Everyone can't eat too much, they can only grab a handful. Do you understand?"

The man nodded. I went to eat and drink among the crowd, and soon a group of children ran over. Everyone obediently grabbed a handful of dry rations and stuffed them into their mouths. They ate in a hurry, and some of them even choked.

Looking at this scene, Lloyd couldn't help but feel some joy in his heart. Children are the future of an ethnic group. As long as the children live well, then the ethnic group will not perish and will only grow stronger.

But he was not happy for long. When he saw a person walking in before his eyes, his heart suddenly became cold.

The person who came was Beta, their new master.

There were also a few children who were holding a ball of coarse grains in their hands and stuffing it into their mouths. Naturally, Beta saw this.

Eating in private is a taboo in the eyes of any noble. Lloyd was very afraid that Beta would punish these children. He was sweating all over his body. When he was about to think of a way to persuade the master not to touch these children and take all the blame on himself, he saw Beta sniffing at those children. If he didn't see it, he walked to the donkey cart to check the condition of these rations.

Lloyd felt like his throat was stuck in his throat.

Beta looked at several donkey carts, walked up to Lloyd, and asked expressionlessly: "How much did it cost?"

"This is ten days' worth. It only costs one gold coin and thirty-six silver coins in total." Lloyd was a little worried. He was afraid that the owner would think he bought too much. After all, he secretly calculated more than the minimum amount of food rations consumed by the tribesmen every day.

"Are you helping me save money?" Beta seemed to sneer with disdain: "In the future, your food rations will be doubled on this basis. Also, when buying food in the future, just buy it month by month. Don't be too petty. , I only buy it for ten days at a time, what’s the big deal? It’ll be embarrassing for me to tell you.”

Lloyd took a deep breath: "No problem. As you wish, my master."

Beta hummed, and then said: "You can go buy the remaining twenty days' rations later, and let them have enough to eat. We will set off tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Master."

Beta glanced at the slaves and nodded when he saw that their vitality and blood were obviously much better. He turned around and left. When he was about to reach the entrance of the cave, he suddenly turned back, looked at Lloyd and said, "Those kids, don't let them steal any more. If I see them next time, I will break their legs."

"Okay." Lloyd responded loudly and ecstatically, and his hanging heart was relieved.

When the master said this, he naturally let go of the children who stole the food. As for the master's bad tone... How many masters have a very gentle tone when speaking to their slaves? If something like that really happens, it means things may be in trouble.

Lloyd watched Beta leave the cave. He looked at his people and suddenly shouted loudly: "Listen to me, get ready for dinner. We can finally have a full stomach."

A moment later, there was a burst of joyful cheers.

Beta was outside the cave. Hearing the faint sound coming from behind, he smiled slightly and felt a little happy. As a person on earth in the information age, Beta was somewhat resistant to the word slave, but he knew very well that if he rashly told these slaves that they were free, they would become ordinary people from now on.

When those slaves said this, not only would they not believe it, but they would be very scared.

In the eyes of many people, even slaves themselves, slaves are slaves and the most despicable things. They have become accustomed to this kind of positioning. Suddenly, if someone says this, they will definitely suspect that the person who said this has absolutely no good intentions. After all, once anything is abnormal, problems will arise.

Beta returned to the hotel and took Shirley and Jessica shopping on the street for a few hours. Jessica seemed very excited. She liked to go shopping with her owner the most, while Shirley seemed much calmer, but still very happy. .

After dark, we returned to the hotel, had something to eat and went to sleep.

When she woke up the next day, Beta took Shirley and Jessica to the entrance of the cave.

Royd was already waiting at the door with his tribesmen. Next to them, there were more than a dozen donkey carts carrying linen cloths and must be full of rations.

"Master, we are all ready." Lloyd stepped forward and reported.

Beta looked at the group of slaves and said calmly: "There are a lot of old guys among you... By rights, they should be thrown away."

As soon as these words came out, Lloyd was shocked, but he couldn't find any words to refute. After all, this is a problem that all slaves will encounter. As long as a person gets old and can no longer work, he will be abandoned and starve to death.

"But I have a good heart, and I allow you to take these old guys with you. If they don't care about the team, just let them sit on the donkey cart. Anyway, those rations are not expensive things, just give them to the old guys. Sitting is no problem.”

Lloyd breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Master, you are so kind. You are the kindest master I have ever seen."

Beta smiled softly, without comment, then called a carriage from the side, got on it, and drove slowly out of the city.

Lloyd made a gesture and asked his tribe to follow immediately.

More than 700 people lined up in two rows, and there were more than a dozen donkey carts, heading out of the city in a mighty manner.

This was a rare thing in Caronte City, and it alarmed many people.

Francis stood in front of the window on the fifth floor, looking at the queue of slaves filing out below, with his butler standing behind him.

"How's the check going?"

"We have found out that the man is indeed the Red Priest. The latest news is that there is an extremely beautiful woman accompanying the Red Priest. She has the same bright blond hair as him, which is exactly the same as our target's appearance."

"Since he is the real Red Priest, there is no need for us to mess with him." Fatty Francis chuckled: "Let's give up on these slaves. A person who dares to fight with the prince and escape unharmed, We can't afford to offend them. But there are always some idiots who overestimate their capabilities. You send two people to follow them quietly and see which force will take action. Once they are defeated by the Red Priest, that's when we take advantage."

The butler bent down and took the order and came out.

In the slave market, slaves who were sold occasionally returned to the hands of the sellers after a short period of time. There are many well-known reasons for this.

Beta was sitting in the carriage, chatting with Shirley. As soon as the team left the city, Joan of Arc, who was conducting reconnaissance in the air, told him that a small encirclement was being arranged one kilometer ahead of their road. (To be continued.)

ps: Sorry, I have something busy today, so I can only update once.

Let's see if I have time to make up for it tomorrow.
