Chapter 93 The big customer is coming
Nico, the person in charge of the serf market, was looking at the serfs inside the fence, feeling a little strange in his heart.
He has been trading serfs here for three years. Generally speaking, the number of serfs is largest only in the two seasons of winter and spring. The latter is more frequently traded because the nobles need to buy serfs for farming.
Even so, the number of serfs was not that large.
The number of serfs this time was really beyond his expectation. There were more than 200 people. And it was not just a serf market in Sheep Town, but also in several other towns. The total number of serfs was at least 700 or 800.
This situation happened once before. It was a very cold winter. Countless serfs froze to death and corpses were everywhere. Even civilians had a hard time surviving. It was hard to survive. If you want to continue living, you can only become serfs.
.
Even for free migrant workers in cities and towns, life is very difficult.
That year, before he became the person in charge here, he heard from his father that when the cold winter passed and the spring breeze came, it was not hope but the breath of death.
The frozen serfs thawed and their bodies began to rot. The stench of the corpses was like the breath of the devil, with a sticky feeling. His father was once asked by adults to throw these serfs into the pit.
among.
When the shovel collides with the corpse, the body that has not yet melted will be broken into pieces, and human flesh, blood and bones can be seen.
The expressions of those serfs before they were frozen to death were all preserved, full of despair, numbness and other emotions. His father and others vomited when they saw this situation, but they still needed to move these serfs to
Inside the big pit, it burned to ashes with a fire.
In fact, this kind of thing happens every winter, so there are also special corpse movers.
It wasn't too cold last year, so not many serfs died, but why there were so many serfs, Nico couldn't figure it out.
He didn't think much about it. Anyway, he only needed to be responsible for selling these serfs.
There was a figure walking towards here not far away. When Nico saw it, a happy expression immediately appeared on his face.
A big customer is coming!
He greeted him directly and said with a smile: "You're here. It's just the right time. There are a lot of serfs that were sent here yesterday, and they will definitely satisfy you."
Karis looked at the fence and said in surprise: "So many?"
"Yes, I don't know what's going on. Not only Sheep Town, but also Pea Town, Flower Town and other towns have many serfs. I only have more than 200 here." Nico said.
Karis thought that his master had told him that the noble lords of Sheep Town were engaged in serf trade, and it seemed that the scale was quite large.
"I don't know how much you want to buy this time. I took a look and found that there are quite a lot of adult male serfs." Nico was very enthusiastic. He had been here for three years and could naturally tell the difference between nobles and ordinary free people.
The person in front of me was obviously the steward of the noble lord. If he came to buy serfs at this time, they must be for farming. Maybe more than two hundred people were bought.
"Where are the capable serfs?" Karis asked.
He looked at the serfs inside the fence. The clothing and mental state of these serfs were somewhat different from the ones he purchased before, and most of them were similar to Negi.
Nico paused and said, "Well, there are some of these, but they are also more expensive."
Karis glanced at him calmly, and immediately understood in his heart that no detailed statistics had been conducted on these serfs after they were sent here. In fact, most of the abilities of the serfs and what they had done before were attributed to them.
Said.
Not every place keeps detailed records and determines their household registration like Ash Town.
Now Karis sincerely feels that the adult's decision is right. At the same time, he is glad that the other party was not rigorous, because it brought him an opportunity.
"Which ones, what do they know?" Karis asked.
Nico came to the fence and pointed at a middle-aged man, "He is a baker."
"This serf says he is a blacksmith."
"besides."
Nico mentioned several people in succession, and Karis noticed it. The other party was not familiar with these serfs.
"Where did you get all the serfs? It is not easy to get such a large number of serfs." Karis asked casually.
Nico shook his head, "That's not clear. I'm just an ordinary person in charge. However, I heard that there is a war with a lord."
Karis immediately asked in a low voice: "Which nobles?"
"Who knows this?" Nico seemed to think this was a bit perfunctory, and added, "It seems to be related to the Aulis nobles. It is said that what resources were discovered, and what dark cultists appeared to kill the other party's people,
Anyway, there’s everything you can say.”
Karis was stunned when he heard the name, Count Aulis, Linn's father.
It shouldn't be that the earl is at war with other nobles. Otherwise, the fighting will definitely spread here. Then it should be that the earl's children have conflicts with other noble lords.
"Hey" Nico called twice.
Only then did Karis come to his senses.
"What's wrong? There's something wrong with your expression."
Karis said: "I have heard about the Aulis nobles. This is a very powerful Earl. There are other nobles who dare to offend them. And the dark cultists you said are true and false. They have not been around for a long time.
Won’t you show up?”
Nico shook his head, "Don't provoke these people anyway, otherwise you won't even know how you died."
"That's right, you should take care of your own business first. I will buy all the adult male serfs you have here, as long as they have sound limbs and no diseases. I also want some other serfs."
"Okay, I'm just waiting for your words." Nico became excited.
The serfs were pulled out of the fence one by one. They looked at the old man who bought them and thought about what the future would be like.
Caris asked Jack and Miles to watch these serfs, while he went to the Red Heart Lion's caravan to trade potions.
Once again, Karis sold the magic potion, took the gold coins and left, preparing to buy things needed by other towns.
Jeffrey shook the potion and praised it, "It's such a beautiful potion. It would be nice if there were more of it."
The subordinate asked, "Recently, the demand for solar water liquid has increased in the market, and some people have even offered high prices. It seems that there is something wrong."
"Huh!" Jeffrey snorted coldly, with sharp eyes, "The damn dark cultists have appeared again, and many people have died in their hands. The sunlight liquid has considerable restraint on the dark power, and the price is only
It will go up.”
