Chereads / Start As a Lord In a Viscount / Chapter 41 - slave trader

Chapter 41 - slave trader

The tutorials in that book are not difficult. After all, they are the most basic things. It only took Claire an hour or two to master it. There are so many monsters in his world. Although he can't use them now, he can use them later The effect is definitely great.

For example, the mount used by the Royal Guard of the neighboring country is the griffin, which is one of the state secrets of the neighboring country. Except for their kingdom, few other kingdoms can master the method of controlling the monster like the griffin.

Claire wondered why she would have to get a few dragons for her knights to ride in the future. It was impossible for a pure-bred dragon. Once a dragon of that level became an adult, it would be a legendary creature at the level of the sage. Now there are no ashes left by Claire, who is only an intermediate mage, but it is still possible to get a few dragonborn, such as two-headed dragons.

...

Claire woke up early in the morning. Generally speaking, mages don't need a lot of sleep. Meditation can replace sleep.

After breakfast, under the leadership of Reagan, Claire walked to those construction sites, where the construction workers stopped their work and saluted Claire when they saw Claire coming.

"Your Excellency the Viscount, Gui'an!"

Claire showed a friendly smile, "You guys are busy with your work, I'm just here to take a look."

There are special architects in this city, and Claire doesn't have to worry about this. Just come and see how the process is going.

The foundation has been laid, and the next step is to build a house on it, and what Claire wants is not as gorgeous as the previous life, as long as it can meet the needs of use, and it will take a week to estimate the time according to this progress. These buildings can be built.

The time is not too fast, the main reason is that there are too many people. When the people in the territory heard that Claire was going to build a hospital and a school, everyone who was idle came over to help. Hundreds of people are busy. If it weren't for the lack of light at night, they'd have to work two shifts.

Compared with the construction of hospitals and schools, the underground sewage discharge is much slower. After all, everyone has no experience in this area. Generally, it is enough to directly throw the sewage and garbage out of the door. Where is there such a pipeline system for sewage discharge.

However, after Claire issued that announcement, the residents of Nafu City also spontaneously cleaned up the **** and filth on the streets. At least Claire could no longer smell the pungent stench when she walked on the streets.

Moreover, under the explanation and guidance of Claire's principles, I don't know that the architects did not understand it. They seem to have realized something. These days, they have been digging sewage pipes under the city of Nafu, and they have made it look like It's almost the same as Claire's impression.

Seeing the city gradually getting better in his hands, a sense of pride rose in Claire's heart.

But before he went around much, Reagan, who was beside him, reported something to Claire.

"Master! A slave trader came from outside the city."

This world is not just as simple as feudalism. There are many tribal orc gathering areas under the orc empire in the west, and at the junction of the three human kingdoms in the center is the Empire of Light, which is based on religion. Therefore, although slaves are in Some kingdoms are forbidden, but in this kingdom where Claire is located, it is not forbidden. It is even very fair. Some noble families keep a lot of slaves for entertainment.

"Go and have a look." Claire said, but she was very puzzled.

Most of the slaves were plundered from the defeated countries, but the kingdom where Claire is located is in the easternmost kingdom. It is not like bordering some foreign kingdoms. The fighting is so fierce, so there are very few slave traders. See, even if they appear, they are all in the prosperous capital, and it is even rarer to come to a remote place like my own viscount.

As soon as they walked out of the city gate, Claire saw a long group of carriages, with camels carrying rows of iron cages.

The iron cage was much larger than the one in Claire's impression, and the slaves in it were not the human beings he imagined. They were giants over two meters tall with horns on their backs. Their faces were not so ugly, but It's just different from humans, more like... a cow's face.

"Tauren?" Claire asked suspiciously.

The slave trader on the side saw that after Claire came out and there were a bunch of people following him, they knew that this young man was the lord of this territory.

So he hurriedly put on a smile and moved forward, "This young master must be the Viscount with such a graceful demeanor!"

"Yeah!" Claire responded casually, but he was still looking at the tauren in the iron cage. He had only seen this kind of creature in anime.

The slave trader didn't seem to feel Claire's perfunctory, so he pulled Claire to the iron cage and introduced: "Is the viscount interested in these tauren! Six gold coins can take one away, I have more here. Twenty-three, all you need is one hundred and twenty gold coins!"

Claire frowned. It wasn't expensive at all, but he didn't know what to do with the tauren he bought. Could it be that he bought farmland? Or to increase the biodiversity within Nafu?

After hesitating, one of the people who came out behind Claire suddenly raised his hand and said, "Uncle! You don't have beast ears for sale here, do you?"

Claire turned around suddenly, there is actually a Fu Rui control in his own people?

But then he still set his sights on the face of the slave trader. Instead of spending more than a hundred to buy a bunch of tauren, he might as well buy some beast-eared maids.

"Uh..." The slave trader scratched his head embarrassedly and explained, "Those half-orcs were sold when they were in the capital, so these tauren were left behind."

His meaning is very clear, if these tauren couldn't be sold, he wouldn't have pulled them to such a remote place to sell them.

It was the same in the beginning. Even if the nobles bought slaves for guards, they would buy some warriors from the wolf clan or cat clan and take a team of tauren out, which would be laughed at by other nobles.

Seeing the hesitant look on Claire's face again, the slave trader hurriedly said: "Don't worry, although there are no half-orcs... that is what you call the beast-eared girl, but I have a half-elf in my hand, look Not interested."

Hearing what the other party said, Claire became interested, "Take me to see it."

The slave trader led Claire into an iron cage covered with sackcloth~www.mtlnovel.com~ This cage is much smaller than the cage where the tauren were held.

The slave trader opened the cage, revealing the half-elf imprisoned inside, with fair skin and long, pointed ears, and the delicate appearance was exactly the same as the elf in Claire's impression.

The sackcloth was torn open, and the sun pierced in. The half-elf stretched out his hand to block his eyes, so as not to be dazzled by the sun. With a weak posture, he glanced at the slave trader who had uncovered the sackcloth, and then glanced at the slave trader who was standing there. Claire, who was on the side, then curled up in the corner of the iron cage, unable to care about the outside world.

"I'm right, these are half-elves and the elves in the Forest of Elves look similar. Do you think you're interested?"

"It stands to reason that slaves like half-elves should have been sold in the capital a long time ago? Why did you bring them here?" Claire asked, looking directly into the other's eyes.

The slave trader wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with a smile: "It seems that you can't hide anything from you, Lord Viscount, don't look at her weak posture, she has a very strong temper, and she can't speak common language, so The nobles in the capital did not choose to buy her. But if you want to buy it, I will give you a 50% discount, and you can buy it for fifty gold coins!"

Claire glanced at the other person suspiciously: "Why do you think I will buy something that no one else buys?"

"Don't! I'll give you a 30% discount! Thirty gold coins, I won't be able to get back to the basics!" the slave trader begged: "And she knows a lot of things, elf magic, and medicine... "

Hearing that Claire's eyes flickered, he secretly said in his heart, "Knowing medical skills? It happens that my viscount is lacking a doctor..."
