Chapter 119 The Mineral Vein Problem
After learning of Hua Yun's identity, Lao Ha was completely stunned. Although a person like him who has been traveling all the year round has a lot of knowledge, it is only among some low-level people. With his identity, even a person from a small town The city lord is generally not qualified to see it.

He had heard of Master Huayun before, but he had only heard of it. He didn't pay special attention at all. After all, a person like him never expected to have any intersection with Master Huayun of the Kingdom. , with this kind of free time, it is better to spend it elsewhere.

But after all, Lao Ha is not an ordinary person, took a deep breath, Lao Ha tried his best to suppress the shock in his heart, he didn't want to leave any petty impression in front of Master Hua Yun and his subordinates.

At this moment, Lao Ha quickly recovered from his slight gaffe, and his extremely excited mood calmed down at this moment. Even Lao Ha himself was surprised at the outstanding psychological quality he displayed at this moment, A voice kept swirling in his mind, constantly reminding him——

God is equal to everyone in Allen Continent, Lao Ha, you have been useless all your life, this is an opportunity, it depends on whether you can grasp it this time.

There was a slight smile on his face, and Lao Ha said to Hymes in a soft tone as much as possible: "My lord, please inform Master Hua Yun that the villain's team has assembled and can set off at any time."

Hymes chuckled, "I'm not an adult, I'm just your butler. Captain Haberdas can call me Hymes!" I felt a slight tremor from his words, it was an excited voice.

Seeing the figure of Hymes leaving, Lao Ha let out a long breath, his back was soaked unconsciously, and he couldn't help feeling a little cold when the breeze blew.

However, Lao Ha's heart was still extremely excited. At this moment, he was thinking about how to perform better in front of Master Hua Yun.

Under Hua Yun's order, the team started slowly, led by the leader of the palace guards, Lenny.

Looking at the large number of palace guards walking in front, the silver-white armors on their bodies are all high-quality bright silver armors, which are made by dwarf craftsmen and palace armorers of the kingdom, and the fine steel armor hanging around their waists Long sword, tsk tsk, after looking at the more than 100 soldiers in the slave hunting team for a while, they looked down at the broken iron armor and bronze armor on their bodies. The best one was the fine steel armor on Stowe. Can't help but be full of envy.

After marching for half a day, the team rested in a small forest. The carriages in Huayun's team were all high-quality carriages, and the horses were all good horses. Although the five hundred palace guards may not have experienced the baptism of war , but they who can be palace guards have nothing to say about their physical fitness and strength.

However, Lao Ha’s slave hunting team is relatively inferior. They basically rely on walking without any horses. Even Hua Yun and the others deliberately slowed down the speed along the way. The soldiers in Lao Ha’s slave hunting team wanted to keep up. Also quite strenuous.

Seeing Lao Ha and the others panting and following up, Lenny, the court guards who are used to the prestige in the royal city, all looked at the soldiers in Lao Ha's slave hunting team proudly, with a hint of disdain in their eyes.

Lao Ha and the others took the initiative to rest some distance away from Huayun's team. Facing the disdainful eyes of those palace guards, Stowe and the others were not unhappy, but they were slightly bitter in their hearts. In the world of respect, if you don't have enough strength, you can only face the disdain of the strong, and you won't get the respect of the other party. This is an eternal law.

After leaning against the grove to rest, Lao Ha and the others took out the dry food they were carrying from their bodies and gnawed slowly, while the palace guards and the people in Huayun's team took out the dry food from the carriage. Some dried meat was distributed by the servants in the carriage one by one, and the Ba Shi brothers even took out two bottles of wine from their bodies and drank them.

Hua Yun got down from the carriage, and gathered around for lunch with Ron and the others. After seeing the situation on Lao Ha's side, Hua Yun whispered a few words in Hymes' ear.

Hymes nodded immediately, came to the food carriage, and arranged for a few servants to carry some things to the place where the old Harbin slave team was resting.

Seeing Hymes walking towards him from a distance, Lao Ha stopped what he was holding and stood up immediately before Hymes approached. After standing up, they all stopped eating in their mouths, and all of them stood up at once.

Seeing those soldiers standing in front of him all at once, Hymes couldn't help being a little stunned, and asked the two servants to put the things they were carrying in front of Old Ha. Hymes smiled and said, "Habedas Commander, these foods are given to you by my adults!"

"This, how is this possible!" Lao Ha looked at the food placed in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a little flattered in his heart, as if what was placed in front of him at this moment was not food, but boxes of gold coins.

"Hehe, you're welcome, Captain Haberdas. My lord has said that it's because of him that you brothers have to travel so hard. These foods can be regarded as a reward for everyone!" Hymes said to Lao Ha, then turned to Hua Yun went back there.

"Captain, it's dried meat!" Xiao Liu looked at the things Hymes sent, his saliva was about to flow out, and he continued to shout: "There is also fruit jam, um, muffins..." These things, for For the little six of the slave hunting team, they can only eat good food when they celebrate their achievements after they have made a vote. My dear, Master Hua Yun is a master, and they eat this kind of good food on the way. Uh huh, look at With the dry food in his hand, Xiao Liu couldn't help but feel a little speechless, he lost his appetite at all.

"Hehe, Stowe, please send it to everyone!" Looking at the expectant eyes of the soldiers around him, Lao Ha couldn't help laughing, and at the same time felt that Master Huayun cared so much about his slave hunting team. gratitude.

After lunch and rest for a while, the team quickly set out on the road again.

"Captain Habeidas, Lord Huayun wants you to go to his carriage!" Not long after he set off, Rody came to Lao Ha's side.

With some excitement in his heart, Lao Ha entered Hua Yun's carriage under the leadership of Luo Di. The carriage Hua Yun was in was quite large and very comfortable. In the depths of winter, there was a refreshing chill outside. After Lao Ha walked into Huayun's carriage, it seemed as if he had entered a warm spring.

In Hua Yun's carriage, besides Hua Yun, Luna and Anya were also inside. Because there were no outsiders, Anya did not wear a veil like last time. After seeing these two people, Lao Ha was taken aback for a moment, then immediately lowered his head, never daring to look up again.

Who knows whether Master Huayun will be unhappy because of this, if these trivial things leave a bad impression on him in Master Huayun's heart, then it is really not a loss.

"I don't know what's the reason why Master Huayun called the villain?" Old Ha asked as calmly as possible.

"I heard from Captain Haberdas that he has spent decades in the province of Costa. I think he must have a good understanding of the province of Costa. I have two questions for you."

"Master Hua Yun, please ask. As long as the villain knows, the villain will know everything."

"I really want to know why there are so many wastelands in the province of Costa, but there are so few people who grow crops? Don't tell me that the land is barren or something. I am a planter and know more about soil than you! "Hua Yun looked at Lao Ha in front of him, and narrowed his eyes slightly. In fact, if Hua Yun wanted those tauren slaves, he could just take them away. No registration, no special laws, there was no restriction on Hua Yun at all.

For going on the road with Lao Ha and the others, Hua Yun’s real purpose is to have a comprehensive understanding of Costa Province through Lao Ha. On the official document given to him by the Kingdom, he only wrote some basic data of Costa Province. For Yun, these are far from enough, and people like Lao Ha who have lived in the Costa province for decades and often travel in the province must have a lot of understanding of the province.

"Master Huayun!" Lao Ha couldn't help hesitating for a moment. He didn't expect Hua Yun to ask such a sensitive question. Of course, Lao Ha knew something about this kind of question, but because there were many things involved behind it, Lao Ha After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Master Huayun, there is only one reason why no one has planted the land, and that is that no one has planted it!"

"Then why is there no one planting it? Costa province has a population of millions of people. Compared with other provinces, although the population is relatively small, it's not like there are no people like this, right?"

"The province of Costa has a large population, but they all go to work as miners!" Having said that, Lao Ha gritted his teeth and said, "Mining is a very dangerous thing. People in the province of Costa die every year in the mine veins." There are tens of thousands of workers and slaves!"

"So many? How is it possible?" Luna on the side couldn't help exclaiming. As a mercenary, she knew that there were only a few thousand mercenaries who died every year because of fighting monsters in the Demon Mountains. After all, fighting in the Demon Mountains is a very dangerous thing, and no matter what the miners say, they shouldn't be more dangerous than mercenaries.

"Adults may not know it. The people who died due to the collapse of mine veins and other problems accounted for only a small part of them. Most of the people who died were starved to death and beaten to death!" There was a hint of anger. More than 20 years ago, when he was just an ordinary mercenary, his son was conscripted into the mine to open the mine without his knowledge. When he came back, he had already died in the mine. among.
