I Have A Wizard World
Chapter 6
It was almost noon when I came out of the manor.
The climate of the alien world is similar to that of the earth. It is also divided into four seasons. Different from the earth entering early autumn, Morton city is in the middle of summer and the day is very hot.
Fang Cheng came out of the manor and touched the sweat on his forehead.
"Are you satisfied, my lord?" Although Fang Cheng kept smiling, Roger was still a little frightened.
No wonder he is so worried about gain and loss. After all, he has put all his wealth on this deal with Fang Cheng.
If the transaction fails in the end, the loss will be too big for him.
"I''m satisfied, Roger." Fang Cheng glanced at Roger with a smile. Fang Cheng could guess what Roger was thinking.
"Just be satisfied." Roger owed himself. "This is the deed and certificate of the manor." With that, Roger took over the house deed handed over by his servant and handed it over with both hands.
Seeing Fang Cheng take over the lease, Roger was a little hesitant.
Seeing Roger''s hesitation, Fang Cheng said, "is there any problem?"
Roger bowed slightly and said, "Your Excellency should be the first time to Morton."
Hearing this, Fang Cheng''s face quickly cooled down.
Although Fang Cheng has been hiding, his initial dress and accent are different from the native Morton residents.
"Why do you say that?" Fang Cheng opened his mouth lightly, neither admitting nor denying it. After all, in addition to the original residents, Morton has a large number of immigrants. How did Roger see his difference.
Clothing? People from Seven Star Island don''t have too many weird clothes. Fang Cheng''s T-shirts seem very normal. Accent? The accent of immigrants is different from that of Morton City, which is not the reason for their exposure. As for skin color, it''s the same as clothing. Although Morton city is dominated by white people, most people from Seven Star Island are mainly black hair and black eyes.
Seeing Fang Cheng''s face cold, Roger became nervous and quickly explained: "Sir, I have been doing business in the Seven Star Chamber of Commerce for 12 years. I know all the businessmen in and out of the Seven Star Island, except adults. I''ll see you for the first time, so..."
Later, Roger didn''t go on.
It turned out to be so. Fang Cheng was relieved. He was not afraid that others would suspect that he was not from Seven Star Island, but that Roger would investigate him.
After all, his identity really can''t stand careful investigation.
Thinking of this, Fang Cheng became more vigilant.
In the final analysis, Roger is just a civilian businessman in Morton city. He can keenly find his problems. How can he resist when he takes out huge wealth and those real big people investigate himself?
In the final analysis, I have no foundation in this world and can''t stand a little storm.
Roger was so frightened that he couldn''t breathe when he saw Fang Cheng''s silence. Now he is more and more sure that Fang Cheng is the spokesman pushed by other big forces to Morton city.
There are many such figures in Morton City, the most prominent of which are the seven major commercial firms in Morton city.
"If only you knew about it, don''t say it." Square into an ambiguous opening.
Roger glanced at Fang Cheng with his remaining light and found that Fang Cheng had no expression on his face. He was shocked. He quickly lowered his head and replied, "yes, sir."
In the final analysis, the oppression of the upper class against the lower class in this world is too deep-rooted. This deep-rooted, is countless years, the nobility with their iron blood, branded in the depths of the souls of these civilians, not Viscount Morton with decades of Huairou policy, can change.
Roger trembled at the thought of the forces behind Fang Cheng.
"Sir, if you''re coming to Morton for the first time, you''d better go to the city master''s house to register your identity, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstanding."
Despite his uneasiness, Roger reminded Fang Cheng.
After all, he is now a man on Fang Cheng''s ship. If Fang Cheng finally makes something dirty with Viscount Morton, he doesn''t know whether Fang Cheng has anything to do, but as a civilian businessman, he will eventually fall victim to these aristocratic struggles.
Fang Cheng nodded and said nothing.
Seeing Fang Cheng didn''t speak, Roger didn''t dare to continue to speak. For a moment, the atmosphere in the carriage was a little dull.
......
In an hour.
They came to the Seven Star Chamber of commerce again.
Only this time, Roger''s attitude was much more formal. Roger worked very quickly. Within half an hour, Roger came out with some of his bodyguards.
He was empty handed, and the two bodyguards behind him came with a wooden box. Looking at the way they stumbled, it was obvious that the wooden box was very heavy.
"Touch!"
The two bodyguards carried the wooden box onto the carriage and breathed heavily.
"My Lord, the six jewels are worth 78000 gold coins. They are all here." Roger whispered, suppressing his excitement.
Fang Cheng nodded. Roger had already agreed with Fang Cheng about the price.
However, after what just happened, Fang Cheng became more vigilant. Therefore, Fang Cheng asked Roger to do it this time. He didn''t come forward.
Fang Cheng took the key from Roger, twisted it against the lock hole of the wooden box and opened the lock with a "click".
Fang Cheng raised his hand and opened the wooden box.
Into the eyes, a golden light. There are so many gold coins that Fang Cheng doesn''t want to count.
"Bang!"
Fang Cheng closed the wooden box and said, "lend me your carriage."
"This carriage will be given to adults," Roger hurriedly said when he heard Fang Cheng''s words. "Will, you go and drive for adults." Roger immediately ordered will, his bodyguard.
"Yes, my Lord." Will made a knightly salute with his right hand on his chest.
Fang Cheng didn''t refuse to see will driving for himself in front of the carriage.
No way. He can''t drive a carriage himself. Let alone a carriage, he can''t even ride a horse. He has made up his mind that when he is free, he must use the virtual learning space to learn all these skills.
Under the eyes of Roger and the bodyguards, will drove the carriage away slowly.
In the car.
"My Lord, where shall we go next?" Will looked back slightly and whispered.
Fang Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "will, do you know where there are slaves?"
Slavery was an inseparable topic in medieval feudal society. Similarly, in this more cruel alien world, slaves also exist widely. They may be prisoners of war, civilians of other countries captured, or even some crazy nobles who capture and sell civilians in their own territory.
Slaves have no rights, even the most basic human rights. Their existence is only equivalent to a commodity and a wealth belonging to their masters.
Indeed, as a modern man, it is shameful to use slaves.
But Fang Cheng has too many secrets. Fang Cheng can''t rest assured by hiring guards and servants through normal ways. Maybe only slaves can make him feel a little relieved.
"Sir, the major businesses in Morton basically have slave trading," will paused. "The largest of them is the rose business."
Rose firm, its business activities are not as good as its name. It is Morton city. No, it should be said that it is the largest slave trader in the East holy empire.
Every year, the slaves sold by it can fill the moat outside Morton.
Notorious.
These four words are suitable to describe Rose firm.
As for the meaning of the word rose. Fang Cheng finally understood what it meant when he saw the naked women in the cage.
......
The basement of the Rose firm.
Fang Cheng frowned fiercely at the stench of sweat, blood and feces coming from all around.
The steward beside him saw Fang Cheng''s expression, turned his eyes and said with a smile: "adults don''t seem very satisfied with these goods."
Fang Cheng doesn''t speak.
Seeing that Fang Cheng didn''t speak and the steward was not embarrassed, he quietly explained: "there are better goods on the second floor of our firm. Compared with these, they are original goods. Both quality and beauty are guaranteed to satisfy adults."
"Do you have male slaves?"
Fang Cheng''s words stunned the steward. Then, he seemed to think of something dirty and showed an obscene smile on his face: "it turns out that adults like this. No problem. We also have this kind of goods to ensure that adults are satisfied."
When Fang Cheng heard his tone, he didn''t know what he meant, and his face pulled down in an instant.
Will behind him saw Fang Cheng angry and stared: "is this what you should say? Chew the root of your tongue and cut your tongue carefully."
Will was a burly man, nearly two meters tall, looking very oppressive. He scolded him and took care of his affairs for a long time.
The manager of Rose firm is just an ordinary civilian. It''s normal to be thrown out to calm the anger of a big man if you accidentally offend a big man.
"Just go to the second floor."
Looking at the manager''s frightened look, Fang Cheng also felt very boring. The world has been completely distorted. This is still known as Morton city with high civilian status.
Fang Cheng can hardly imagine what life the civilians in other aristocratic territories live. Fang Cheng was also curious that these civilians would not resist.
This is very different from the feudal middle ages. At least, whether at home or abroad, the history of civilians resisting the brutal rule of aristocrats always exists, but there is no such thing in this world.
At least Fang Cheng knows that there are no cases of civilians resisting aristocratic rule.
Strange.
