Chapter 8 Rules
Jiang Mian ignored Chi Lin's words, his lips moved, and he continued to speak after organizing his words: "Let's get along well from now on, and I won't hit you anymore. I know you won't believe me when I say this now, so I will show you with my actions in the future."
She paused, looking at them calmly. "When the time is right, I can let you go, but it all depends on your performance. If you perform well, I can grant you the status of free orcs. If you don't, you will remain my slaves."
The status of a free orc means that he has gotten rid of the slavery he was born into, escaped the lifelong captivity, and can marry and live freely.
"What do you mean by good performance?" Rong Fei asked softly.
Jiang Mian tilted his head to look at him, his eyes calm and beautiful: "Be good to me."
Rong Fei's eyes met the girl's calm and tolerant one, and a strange feeling flashed through his heart. His silver eyes flickered slightly, his thin lips curled up slightly, and his eyebrows curved slightly: "Okay, Master."
"Just call me by my name from now on." Jiang Mian glanced at him and then looked away.
"Is this another new trick you're using to get us to please you?" Li Yan sneered, "Your tactics are quite advanced this time."
All of the original owner's orcs were extremely rebellious and not at all kind to her. However, the original owner held back and did not give the order to let the chips in their brains explode. She probably knew that if she went to the Exile Star alone without the protection of a few beast slaves, she would probably die faster.
One side knew that the original owner did not dare to kill them and acted recklessly, while the other side knew that if they died, these beast slaves would be buried with them, so they tortured the orcs without restraint.
Jiang Mian heard the sarcasm in Li Yan's voice, and knew that Li Yan was not the only one who thought so. The other beast slaves must have thought so too.
She continued slowly, "I've laid out the rules here. It's up to you whether you're willing to try."
Several orcs heard her words and pondered the truth of her words.
Chi Lin curled his lips and smiled: "Sister, but I want to be your slave forever."
Jiang Mian had automatically ignored his words, not a single word of them was sincere.
"Now I want to talk about the second thing." Jiang Mian said slowly, "It will take another half month to reach the Exile Star, but we have run out of food."
She spoke slower when she said this last sentence, as if she knew that she had spent too much money, so it was used up so quickly, and she felt a little embarrassed.
Rong Fei next to her looked at Jiang Mian quietly, wanting to see how she would solve the problem.
This exiled starship is closed and will only open when it reaches its destination, so before that, things purchased from the Star Network cannot be delivered.
"I don't even have a single bottle of nutrients left on me." Li Yan spoke softly, his cold black eyes fixed on Jiang Mian. "You've taken all the nutrients."
Jiang Mian had indeed taken away all the nutrients from the beast slaves. When she came through, there were only ten nutrients left in the original owner's room.
But last night she gave five more to Lin Yu, and he crushed them and wasted them, so there were only five left, and she felt a little distressed.
Jiang Mian thought about it and glanced at Lin Yu, and the other party seemed to feel something and looked at her, with a narrow red eye half-closed, and when he looked at people, it was always full of coldness and laziness.
She silently looked away and asked, "Does anyone have any seeds?" instead of asking about the nutrients.
If she doesn't have it, there are other ways.
"No." Li Yan said directly.
Jiang Mian glanced at him, and the man's black eyes were also staring at her. His high brow bones were pierced with a row of red nails, making him look extremely arrogant and rebellious.
She pursed her lips and said nothing. She always felt that the other party's tone was very unfriendly, so she just silently looked away.
"Sister, I don't have any grain seeds, but I have cloud rose seeds." Chi Lin smiled and said, "Sister, do you want some?"
"Okay." Jiang Mian nodded, "Give it to me later."
The cloud rose blooms once a week and then fades, and edible nutrients can be extracted from the mature flowers.
"Okay, sister." Chi Lin responded obediently, blinking her peach blossom eyes and asking, "Sister, am I doing well?"
"Well, not bad, keep up the good work." Jiang Mian nodded.
Rong Fei also spoke slowly: "I also have a few ornamental potted plants in my room. Can I bring them to you later?"
He thought of a possibility, but he was still not sure whether this woman really had the ability to extract nutrients?
"Bring them all here." Jiang Mian nodded.
She looked at Lin Yu and Zhao Ci, who had been quiet the whole time, and said, "Lin Yu, Zhao Ci, please bring me all the potted plants in your room."
Lin Yu is really taciturn, but Zhao Ci probably doesn't want to pay any attention to Jiang Mian at all.
Jiang Mian even suspected that Zhao Ci didn't even listen to her.
She called out their names, but the two of them said nothing and ignored her.
Jiang Mian:......
Rong Fei spoke calmly, breaking the awkwardness: "Everything on this starship belongs to Mianmian. If Mianmian wants something later, I'll go with you to get it."
Jiang Mian paused and tilted his head to look at Rong Fei. He smiled slightly and nodded slightly: "Okay."
She thought that there was a reason why Rong Fei was beaten. Look how good he was at being a human being!
However, it was a bit uncomfortable that he was not allowed to call her "Master" but called her "Mianmian" instead. She felt that their relationship was not good enough for her to call her "Mianmian".
Jiang Mian didn't say anything. There was nothing to worry about such a small matter of address.
"Okay, Rong Fei, follow me. The rest of you are free to do whatever you want." Jiang Mian stood up from the sofa, grabbed Rong Fei's wrist, pulled him up, and then went to the orcs' rooms. He looked back at Rong Fei and said, "Let's go now."
When Rong Fei saw Jiang Mian holding his hand, a trace of mysophobic disgust flashed through his heart.
But when Jiang Mian turned around to look at him, the expression on his face was extremely gentle. Seeing Jiang Mian looking at him, he nodded slightly: "Okay."
Jiang Mian likes people with stable emotions and it is comfortable to communicate with them.
At present, the other party should not have turned evil into the beast master who later crazily slaughtered humans.
The two of them walked all the way to the other orcs' rooms and started moving the potted plants.
Chi Lin's beautiful eyes, shrouded in deep blue mist, had an unclear expression.
After a while, he chased after her, his voice brilliant: "Sister, I'll help you move too."
Jiang Mian tilted his head to look at him and nodded: "Okay."
The three orcs still in the hall had mysterious expressions.
Zhao Ci glanced at Jiang Mian's departing back and just sneered sarcastically.
It would be better if that disgusting woman didn't bother him.
No matter what tricks she plays, just don't come to disgust him.
