Du Wei glanced at him, and Sandy quickly lowered his voice and said: "You are from out of town, but you don't know that the fat man is a famous person here. He is the head steward of a big noble family in the imperial capital, and his name is Gu Luo.
Many slave traders here recognize him, he is an old buyer here, and he is not easy to mess with, so you'd better not rob him."
Du Wei smiled, and then without waiting for Ruolin to speak, he smiled and said in a medium voice: "Ten...gold coins!"
There was an uproar!
Watching this young boy shout out the price of ten gold coins... Although the money was not much at that time, ten gold coins were equal to one hundred silver coins.
One hundred silver coins bought ten slaves, three of whom were old and weak. Such a loss-making transaction was particularly curious.
Moreover, many people in the crowd recognized the middle-aged fat man and knew that he was not easy to mess with. Many people also knew the goods and were originally planning to call out the price, but when the fat man opened his mouth, they all shut up. Suddenly Du Wei appeared.
The unfamiliar boy was killed, and everyone couldn't help but sigh:
Someone is going to be in trouble.
The fat man named Gu Luo was not a reckless guy, and his eyes were very poisonous. He glanced at Du Wei and saw that Du Wei seemed to be a bit extraordinary. He was able to hang out in the imperial capital. This fat man also
Not being a fool, I hesitated for a moment and was not willing to easily offend Du Wei, a young man who seemed ordinary but exuded a sense of wealth and nobility.
After all, this is the imperial capital, and there are countless noble families under the emperor's feet. Although he is a bit arrogant on weekdays, he only bullies some foreign merchants who have no backing, and he will not act stupidly to cause trouble.
He thought for a moment, smiled at Du Wei from a distance, and nodded as a greeting.
Du Wei didn't even pay attention to him, didn't even glance at him, and then looked at the stage intently.
Ruolin went to pay the money, and then someone from the slave trader immediately jumped down from the platform and brought a sign to Ruolin, which meant that she could go behind them to pick up someone at any time with the sign.
But Du Wei also wants to buy the next batch of slaves. Sandy has a good eye for people, and the quality of the latter batch of slaves is two points better than the previous batch, which makes Du Wei vaguely interesting.
yes:
There are fifteen slaves in total in the group behind, thirteen of them are young and strong men, with dark skin and strong muscles. And standing on the stage... well, how should I put it? Call them honest, but every one of them is
Their eyes are full of energy. It can be said that they are difficult to tame, but they all stand there neatly, even standing very straight. Very neat.
What particularly made Du Wei curious was that at the back of the queue, there were an old man and a young man. An old man with white hair was so thin that he was already skin and bones. But he still held his chin high, with a vague look that was different from his status as a slave.
Correspondingly...arrogant?
But the young man next to him always lowered his head, and his naked upper body did not look as thin as imagined, and looked very clean.
The old man held the young man's hand tightly and stood beside the group of young slaves. Those young slaves seemed to be vaguely protecting the young and old behind them.
As soon as Sandy saw this group of people, his eyes lit up and he whispered: "Mr. Dear Sir, this group is the best! It is the best group I have seen in the past few days! Look at that old man, it's obvious at first glance
He is a very distinguished person among the indigenous people! Maybe he is also a clan leader! Look, he also has tattoos on his body. I heard that among the indigenous people in Nanyang, only some people with high status are qualified to get tattoos! Like this
If someone buys it back, it will be enough to suppress many slaves who want to escape. With this treasure in hand, other slaves will definitely not escape!"
But this time, before Du Wei opened his mouth, the fat middle-aged man had already seen the value of these slaves.
"Eighty silver coins." Gu Luo's price immediately made the crowd sigh.
Many eye-catching buyers did not dare to compete with Gu Luo and gave up helplessly.
"Ten...gold coins." Du Wei still spoke calmly.
This time Gu Luo was a little dissatisfied.
Why is this young man always against me? I have given him face just now, but this guy is so ignorant?
Gu Luo glanced at Du Wei, then sneered, and whispered something to a servant in green clothes beside him. The servant nodded and walked towards Du Wei from the crowd.
Get out of the way.
The servant came over, but he was very polite, and first gave Du Wei a courtesy. It seemed that he was from a big family, and he was very measured in doing things.
"This young master." The servant whispered: "Our master Gu Luo said that he has given you a face just now. This group is his favorite, so please don't hurt your peace. Today's matter is
Selecting a gardener for the new house of Count Villa."
These words were of a high standard, neither soft nor hard, just right, and they also cleverly named his identity.
Count Villa?
Du Wei smiled.
It turns out that it belongs to the family of Count Villa. Count Villa has always been on the side of Prince Chen. After the coup, his status has skyrocketed. I heard that after the fall of Marquis Solomon, many royal properties were handed over to Prince Chen.
Earl Ya went to take care of it, and he was regarded as a direct confidant of Prince Chen. Recently, he was very popular among the aristocratic circles in the imperial capital.
The servant thought he had revealed his side's identity, and according to past practice, the other party would give in with a few polite words. Everyone did not lose face.
But after Du Wei finished laughing, he didn't say anything. He just glanced at Ruolin and nodded.
Ruolin understood, she took out something from her arms, handed it to the servant, and waved him back.
Gu Luo watched his men come back, took a look at the things, and his expression immediately changed!
This is a small wooden sign with a few simple patterns carved on it. This is not Du Wei's badge, but the logo of the shop under Du Wei's name.
Gu Luo was shocked when he saw it, and his expression immediately changed. He took a closer look at Du Wei, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
He saw that although Du Wei was wearing ordinary clothes, he had just put his hands on his back, and on his wrist, a delicate bracelet was vaguely exposed under his clothes. The bracelet was made of gold and had a green gem inlaid on it.
As Gu Luo was born in the Earl of Villa's house, as a steward, he naturally has a good eye, and he immediately recognized the magic bracelet that was clearly used by magicians!
Looking at the sign in his hand and Du Wei's bracelet, he still couldn't guess Du Wei's identity!
The arrogance on his face immediately faded away, and there was sweat on his forehead. He quickly pushed away the people around him, squeezed through the crowd, and ran to Du Wei's side. He was about to salute when he saw Du Wei's
Wearing casual clothes, when his heart moved, he stopped, changed to bowing, and then put on a humble smile on his face: "Du... noble young master, I really didn't recognize your identity! I... I didn't expect you
Such a noble person would come to this lowly place...I really deserve to die! Damn it!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Du Wei to speak, Gu Luo raised his head and shouted to the stage: "Twenty gold coins! Twenty!"
After he finished speaking, he took a step back and said with a respectful smile: "Honorable young master, consider these slaves that I bought and gave them to you! Please accept them!"
Sandy was stunned with surprise... and many of the people around him recognized Gu Luo and knew his identity. Seeing this usually arrogant guy, facing this young man, he smiled like a pug.
, spent dozens of gold coins to buy a slave and gave it to the young man, while wiping the sweat from his forehead, as if he was afraid that the other party would show any dissatisfaction.
What is this young man’s identity?!
Du Wei smiled slightly and glanced at Gu Luo: "Well, it seems that Count Villa's men are very good at doing things. In this case, Ruolin, accept it."
"Thank you! Thank you, sir!" Gu Luo almost knelt down. He was just a small family steward, and there were many stewards like him in the family. The person in front of him was more powerful than his own master, Count Villa.
A duke whose status must be distinguished!
The slave trader above who was dressed like a clown also saw how extraordinary Du Wei was. He also recognized Gu Luo, an old buyer. Seeing that Gu Luo was so respectful to the young man, why didn't he know how to advance or retreat?
Generally speaking, after someone calls out the price, he should shout a few more times to lure more people to bid for higher prices, but how can he have the courage at this moment?
He was about to announce that the transaction was successful, and then quickly told his master afterwards that it was best to send someone to please this young man with a strange identity...
However, it seems that many things have come together today.
From the very back of the crowd, a cold man's voice came: "Twenty-five gold coins, we want these slaves."
