While those people were discussing, in Martin's room, Yoder was reporting to Martin on the tax situation of this month.
"Around eight thousand gold coins," Yoder said excitedly. Martin, upon hearing the amount, realized it was about what he expected. Now it all depended on how these nobles would react.
However, more than ten days passed, and everything was normal, not even the poisoning. But with the Golden Knights guarding him, Martin didn't care. Apart from collecting the ore once every seven days, he went to the slave market every day as usual, hoping to buy some skilled slaves.
However, this kind of technical slaves are very popular and basically, they have all been reserved by the nobles. As for the prison, there are many talented people, but there are also many ungrateful people. Martin is too lazy to go through it again, so now as long as there are more than 50 death row prisoners in the prison, they will be sent to mine.
That day, Martin took a fancy to the strong male slaves he had just captured, bought two thousand of them, and asked Betan to send them to Luoxia Valley.
Luoxia Valley is very close to Luoqiu Town, and it is convenient to travel back and forth. After the Dawn Knights move in to reorganize the area, tens of thousands of people can live in the valley at the same time, so Martin plans to transfer all the people in the training valley to Luoxia Valley, which will make it more convenient to upgrade or transfer troops.
After Martin bought the slaves, he asked Betan to escort them to Luoxia Valley. After seeing that there was nothing good to buy, he prepared to return to the hotel.
At this time, in the center of the slave market, someone was beating drums and gongs and shouting, "Come and take a look at the wild animal trainer we just caught. It took us brothers a month to secretly capture him."
Hearing the name of the animal trainer, the crowd began to look over there, only to see five mercenaries standing in the middle of the market, with a little wild girl shivering in a cage at their feet.
Martin asked Eric and the other two to release some of their energy, and soon a passage was opened up. Martin just stepped forward.
A slave owner who had squeezed to the front of the crowd said: How do you know she is a tamer? This little girl is obviously an ordinary person. Any profession involves the extraordinary, and you can tell whether it is a profession or not at a glance.
After hearing what the slave owner said, several people who wanted to buy the slaves started to make a fuss. After hearing this, the five mercenaries got red in the face and started arguing with them.
At this time, Eric whispered to Martin: Master, I feel that there is indeed a kind of energy in that little girl's body, but I don't know if she is a tamer.
After all, unlike knights and mages, one needs to reach adulthood before practicing.
However, some professions can be trained in advance, and some people have physiques that allow their bodies to generate energy in advance. Such people are relatively rare anywhere.
After all, they have a few more years of practice time than others, and these people are often gifted, and their lowest achievement can be practiced all the way from E level to B level.
So, when Martin heard what Eric said, he decided to take the little girl under his wing.
Seeing that several people were still arguing, Martin said directly: Fifty gold coins, I'll take it. After hearing Martin's offer, the mercenary who seemed to be the leader said: My Lord, it took my brothers more than a month to catch this, fifty gold coins is too little.
Hearing that it was Martin who spoke up, several slave owners who wanted to buy the girl hesitated to speak. Martin didn't want to argue with him too much, so after adding ten gold coins, he let the little girl out of the cage.
He ignored the mercenary's look as if he wanted to raise the price and led his men away.
After arriving at the hotel, Martin asked the hotel owner to give the little girl a bath and change her clothes. After hearing this, the owner took the little girl downstairs.
After Martin took out the magic crystal to charge the communication crystal, he sent a communication to Roland. After the call was connected, he said to Roland, "You should contact Conrad during this period to buy some B-level and below knight armor."
The two chatted for a while about the operation of the Chamber of Commerce. Roland reported everything one by one. After listening, Martin felt that it was running very well, so he asked him to continue working hard.
After hanging up the communication crystal, the proprietress brought a clean little girl to her room. Looking at the little girl, Martin prepared to hand her over to the care of the fifty maids.
Let’s go to Luoxia Valley first to see how they are settling in.
This time, the group rode on big wildebeests and were moving at a fairly fast pace, so they soon arrived at Luoxia Valley.
The valley was bustling with activity, with houses being built one after another. After a series of constructions, it had obviously become a military fortress.
After Martin arrived in the valley, he didn't want to alarm them, so he asked Eric to call Betan and others.
When Eric received the order and prepared to act, Betan and his men flashed out from several buildings and came to Martin's front "loyally".
He waved his hand and asked them to take him to a place where they could talk. Betan and others took Martin all the way to a huge stone building. It was very wild, which was Martin's first impression.
When I walked into the building, it was very spacious. After walking for a while, I came to an open-air parliament hall. I have to say, the lighting was very good.
After Martin had everyone seated, he began, "I came here today to see how your resettlement is going, and it's quite good. Sunset Valley will continue to have new members, so we need to confirm the general direction first."
First of all, Sunset Valley will be under the charge of the Dawn Knights from now on. The Dawn Knights have appointed Carlos and Il as the chief and deputy chief, and are formed with twenty silver knights and fifty bronze knights as the framework. We are short of manpower now, but I will gradually fill the gap. If you need any supplies, just ask Roland directly.
As for the other golden knights, they are stationed in Luoqiu Town. I can deploy them at any time to avoid excessive dispersion of forces.
Now, even though we have a strong army and horses, we can still face people face to face, so you, Betan, can decide for yourself whether to wear a mask or not.
Also, regarding the issue of slaves, after one month of intensive training and learning, if their loyalty is still not up to standard, they will be sent to mine. Those whose loyalty meets the standard will undergo intensive training again and have less training. I will come to check on them from time to time.
Carlos, you two should pay more attention to this. Carlos and the other man immediately stood up and agreed. Martin waved his hand and asked them to sit down.
As for the maids, they will live in Luoxia Valley first, strengthen their studies, and no longer need physical training. The castle will be almost completed in more than a month, and then they will be transferred away.
Everyone, Luoqiu Town has managed to hold its ground, but it hasn't yet fought against those nobles, Old Biden, so no one knows what the outcome will be. Transferring the other Golden Knights to Luoqiu Town also has this concern. Carlos, you've been in charge of the Knights of Dawn for some time now, so I won't give you any more instructions. I only have one request: Make the enemy tremble in fear at the mere mention of your Knights.
Okay, let’s end today’s meeting here. Other golden knights, please pack up and follow me back to Luoqiu Town.
