204 The Class Gap
Classes are everywhere, even if they are in the same class, there are high and low points.Although the middle-aged man who came over was wearing aristocratic robes, they were a bit worn out, and some parts were even faintly whitish. It was obvious that they had worn them for a long time and were reluctant to throw them away.Generally in a situation like this, either he is a very simple nobleman, or he is a poor nobleman.Considering the living habits and class self-esteem of the nobles, it is obvious that the latter is more likely.
However, even the run-down nobles are not the ones that ordinary businessmen can offend.Seeing the middle-aged man approaching, Jedla went up to meet him, bowed humblely, and smiled obsequiously: "Your Excellency, Gui'an. I am Jedla, the head of this caravan, and I am very glad to serve you Serve."
With a humble demeanor and humble language, the middle-aged nobleman showed a satisfied smile on his aging face: "Well, you look good. I heard that there is a caravan from other places in the city. The furs are for sale, come and have a look.”
It is true that Jedla sells high-quality furs here. It should be a good thing to have customers come to the door, but he can only sigh in his heart. He has been a businessman since he was a child, and he has learned the ability to read faces. , Knowing that such aristocrats are the most difficult to deal with, not to mention putting on airs, buying things is desperately lowering the price, and it would be good if they can be sold at the cost price, and some even ask the seller to give the goods to him.
Jedra bent over to talk to the middle-aged nobleman, without the arrogance he had when he talked with Chen Xiansong yesterday.This is something that can’t be helped, even if this declining nobleman doesn’t have much money, even if Jedra is richer than him, but the merchant has no status, no matter how much money they have, they dare not speak loudly in front of the nobleman. [
Looking at the situation, Chen Xiansong shook his head slightly. He took several water bags to the cage and handed them to the poor female slaves who were sweating in the sun.When we arrived in the city, there should be an association of soul thinkers, but Chen Xiansong didn't dare to 'report' casually.If the president here is a member of Riccardo, wouldn't it be another sheep to the tiger's mouth.
"You really don't get tired of doing this kind of thing." Mo Li ran to Chen Xiansong's side again at some point, and he looked at the female slaves in the cage with a look of disgust: "These people are dirty and ugly, why? But you can look at them directly, without any look of contempt. Do they remind you of the painful days when you were not a flower boy. That's why you treat them so well."
"You seem to be very interested in everything I do?" Chen Xiansong didn't answer him, but asked the other party instead.Does he want to explain to a person in the feudal era what humanistic care is!He feels that there is no way to change the world, so it is not too difficult to do some small good deeds within his ability.
An inexplicable expression appeared on Molly's simple and honest face: "Father said that everyone is good at things. We are not like soul thinkers. We can learn a lot of knowledge through observation and inference, so we talk about when, Whenever you encounter something you don’t understand, ask more questions.”
"Your father is very insightful." Chen Xiansong was a little surprised: "This doesn't seem like an idea that ordinary people should have."
"This is the family motto passed down from our ancestors." Speaking of this, Mo Li was very proud: "He was a big man hundreds of years ago, but he is a soul thinker." Speaking of this.He suddenly thought of what Chen Xiansong said when he just woke up, and rolled his eyes: "He is not a fake like you."
Chen Xiansong chuckled, there was no need for him to fight such a brat.Mo Li seemed to see Chen Xiansong's perfunctory, and was a little unhappy.At this time, Jedla seemed to have negotiated a deal with the middle-aged nobleman, and he shouted, "Molly, take a few people and bring a cart of furs to Lord Jello's home."
Molly responded, and he took a few steps.Turning around suddenly, he said to Chen Xiansong: "You also come with me, just eat and don't work, just like a useless person, I heard that flower boys are lazy people, you'd better move around, otherwise you will become Fat. You won't be able to sell it for any money."
"I'm in charge of teaching you to learn characters, not everything." Although Chen Xiansong said so, he still followed.
The person who escorted the fur car with them, and four mercenaries.These mercenaries are average in strength.There are hundreds of mercenary guards in Chen Xiansong's house, so we can roughly judge the strength of a mercenary based on their temperament, expression, and equipment.The person walking in the front is the declining middle-aged nobleman, Gero.
Gero's home was not far from where they were stationed, just a few turns away.It was a large marble school. Although it was a bit dilapidated, it could still be seen from its appearance that it was formerly magnificent.
Jie Luo asked them to wait outside the gate. He entered the house first, and came out after a while, followed by two mercenaries and three elderly maids.He handed over the cloth bag in his hand: "You are the youngest son of Your Majesty Jedra. Yes, you look very smart. There are six gold coins and seventeen silver coins in this bag. You have to count them clearly." gone."
Molly bent over to take the money bag from Gero's hand, then opened it, and counted one by one in front of Gero.Seeing his action, Molly's face was a little ugly.Not long after, Molly finished counting, and he had a strange look on his face: "Your Excellency, no, there are only five gold coins and seven silver coins."
"You must have counted wrong." Jie Luo's expression was a little gloomy.The two mercenary guards behind him have slowly put their hands on the hilt of their swords.
"Oh, then I'll count again." After finishing speaking, the simple and honest Molly counted the coins in the bag again in front of Gero.Gero's expression became darker, but Molly didn't realize it.Instead, the four mercenaries around him sensed that something was wrong, and they all looked a little uneasy.
After Molly finished counting one by one, the expression on his face was very tangled: "Your Excellency, I counted again, and there is nothing wrong, just..."
Snapped!Chen Xiansong slapped Mo Li hard on the head.
"What are you doing!" Mo Li turned around, looked at Chen Xiansong, and shouted angrily.
"Your Excellency!" Chen Xiansong ignored Mo Li, but smiled and said to Jie Luo: "Please move the fur into your home, do you need our help?" [
"That's not necessary. A noble's home is not a place that you traveling merchants can set foot in." Jie Luo looked at Chen Xiansong with a half-smile: "It seems that there are still smart people in your caravan. The appearance is white and tender, not like a businessman who has traveled far and wide, and he has a good temperament, what did you do before?"
"I used to work in the Association of Soul Thinkers." Chen Xiansong smiled slightly under Jie Luo's surprised eyes.He slapped Molly on the back of the head again, slapped the boy's next words into his stomach, and then said slowly: "I did a good job at first, but I accidentally did something wrong, and then I was kicked out of the association." After coming out, because he can read and count, he was hired to take charge of the accounts in the caravan. This kid didn’t learn the accounts well, and made a mistake. Your Excellency has a lot, so don’t be as knowledgeable as him.”
"You're smart and capable. Are you interested in working here?" Jie Luo looked at Chen Xiansong with interest.
"Thank you for your kindness. It's just that I owe more than 200 gold coins to the caravan, and I haven't paid it off yet." Chen Xiansong said with a 'pity' expression: "Your Excellency also knows that the rules of the association are relatively strict, and I spent more than 300 gold coins. The gold coin bought back one of my own lives, and now this life is temporarily owned by the caravan."
"That's a pity." Gero shook his head. Most nobles like to recruit capable talents.It's just that his family is down now.The savings are not much, and he can't make up more than 200 gold coins for a while, and now even to buy some furs, he has to cheat and give less money.Most importantly, he felt that Chen Xiansong was not worth more than 200 gold coins.
Several maids took away all the furs from the car, and Jie Luo didn't speak any more, but turned around and left.Two mercenaries slowly closed the gate of the wall.Molly rubbed the back of his head now.Looking at Chen Xiansong, he shouted angrily: "He didn't give enough money, you let him go, and you dare to beat me, if you don't tell the reason, I will ask my father to throw you into the forest Feed the lone wolf."
"I have hundreds of gold coins. Your father is not willing to throw them away." Chen Xiansong chuckled, he didn't care about the boy's threat: "I hit you just now to save you, if you continue talking, we all have to Die here. I don't know what rules a businessman should abide by before nobles. But just now you seem to have offended the other party. I know you don't believe me, but you can ask the four mercenaries next to you, they must feel Seeing the opponent's murderous intent."
The four mercenaries nodded again and again, their palms were covered in cold sweat.Although the opponent has only two mercenary guards, they are much stronger than them. This is an instinct that often wanders on the line of life and death. It does not need too many explanations and reasons to observe.
Molly squinted his eyes, looked at the cloth bag in his hand, and clenched his fists with some annoyance: "He gave us less than a gold coin and more than ten silver coins. It was his fault in the first place, but he still wanted to kill us... the nobleman Is it that overbearing?"
"The way nobles treat you is actually like how you treat female slaves in a cage. The strong oppress the weak." Chen Xiansong looked at him and said slowly: "At least you can be angry, and you can be angry when the other party can't hear you." The place cursed a few times, but those female slaves are even more pitiful, let alone life and death, they can't even fill their own stomachs, wouldn't it be even worse. Don't you think you should treat them better?"
"What did you say!" Molly felt that the other party said a long paragraph, but he couldn't understand what it meant.
"It seems that I am really not suitable for preaching." Chen Xian shook his head reluctantly: "You are still a child, it is normal if you don't understand."
At the same time, in the mercenary union training ground in Qingxi City, Bai Qianxin and Bai Min stood in the center of the venue, and two old men and a young man knelt in front of them, kowtowing vigorously, while on the ground between them , with a set of milky white ornate armor and a milky white long sword.
"Who did you sell him to?" Bai Qianxin waved a leather whip in his hand, crackling: "He is sick, and you don't help him to treat him! If there is anything wrong with him, the three of you will take care of him." Don't try to live."
Bai Min stared at the three of them with no expression on her face, while Suoxi stood behind them and kept wiping her sweat with a silk handkerchief.Cold, he felt the coldness emanating from the two women in front of him, and then his own cold sweat kept breaking out, showing no sign of stopping.
