It was noon and the sun was very strong. There were not many people on the street. Some people tried to walk under the trees or in the shade of the shops on both sides. Although it was located in the north, the temperature in this basin-shaped city was still not low.

There were many luxurious carriages parked at the gate of Zonglu Garden. Many people were standing next to the carriages, and it seemed that no strangers were allowed to enter.

When the driver came closer, he didn't dare to move forward. Dolai had no choice but to pay the bill, get off the car, and walk in through the gate.

When he passed by the carriages, he saw that they were all very distinctive and seemed to belong to wealthy people.

Why is the slave market so prosperous recently? Why is it attracting so many people?

He was quite opposed to the slave trade, but it was a social structural problem, and if it could not be solved at the root, he would have no choice but to integrate into it and save as many people as possible.

Thinking of this, he stepped in.

The hall was bustling with people everywhere. There were many people in cages next to the pillars on all four sides.

Men and women basically didn't wear any clothes, just some cloth to cover the key parts, that's all.

He glanced around and found that there were other races here, including a few gray dwarves who looked quite thin.

Without looking at it any further, he just grabbed a servant and asked him to call Rupert over.

The servant left quickly, and soon, Rupert walked out in a low-key manner. As he walked out, he greeted others very enthusiastically.

Rupert quickly walked through the crowd and came to Dolai. He said in surprise, "Master Dolai is really a rare guest. How are the three little guys last time? Did they do what you wanted?" He suddenly slapped his mouth and said, "Look at my mouth. It must be a blessing for them to go to your place. Are you going to continue to look inside this time?"

Emmmm, you really know how to talk.

Dolai smiled and said, "Of course, you must have wizard talent. I don't need people on the warrior side."

Gentleman Rupert bowed, extended his hand, and said, "Please follow me."

As Rupert walked along, some people had already noticed him. When they saw that he was a wizard, they began to speculate. Soon, Dolai's background was revealed, and some people were immediately surprised.

This person has been causing quite a stir in Watsonburg recently. The Marcia family has publicly declared a boycott, and the Sikong family is also following suit. No one knows what is going on, but the three families are making trouble, and now it is very lively.

Some nobles also have intersections with Dolai, mainly in the field of potions, but Dolai has recently reduced the channels for selling potions, which makes some people feel that it seems possible to get in touch now.

You don't see this person usually, and he refuses all invitations. He is not as good as Morris and Sano, who are facing the wind from all sides. However, Morris and Sano cannot be the masters of the Wizard Tower, so there is no hope there.

Only this person is the real master of the wizard tower.

Some people then started to move, and their footsteps unconsciously followed them inside.

The Zonglu Garden is divided into two parts. In the public area outside, all slaves are replaced every two hours and take turns to appear. Inside is the apartment area. All the slaves in the apartment area are high-end slaves. At the very least, they have warrior or wizard talents and their prices are quite high. One slave can be sold for the money that a family earns in a year. Except for a few major families, basically no one goes in.

The price of slaves ranged from a few hundred gold coins to tens of thousands of gold coins. The price of slaves with wizard talents started at one hundred thousand gold coins each. The price was very high and it was not something that ordinary nobles could afford.

In the quiet backyard, Rupert pretended not to notice the person following him and introduced him to Dole as he walked.

"In recent days, we have been at war with several countries in the northwest. The 12th and 13th legions of the empire have already defeated the small country of Anmi and captured a lot of people. In fact, there is not much to worry about. The empire does not want to fight at all. However, the small countries in the northwest were instigated by the great country in the north, and they had to find faults. Now, they have become prisoners."

They walked past several small apartments in turn and came to several large apartments at the back.

The first few apartments are also occupied, but the doorways are quiet and almost no one is willing to come out. Occasionally, you can see children looking outside at the door. They have stayed here for a long time and also yearn for the freedom outside.

Dole himself had been restrained and knew what it felt like to be locked up, so he would take a closer look at these children, but when he found that their talent was average, he would give up on them.

He doesn't run an orphanage.

Soon, they arrived at the doors of several large apartments at the back. Rupert clapped his hands, and soon, several scolding voices came from those apartments. Not long after, some people came out in embarrassment.

Some of them were adults, but most of them were children. They were neatly dressed but looked like they hadn't washed for days and were a little listless. The adults were wearing special handcuffs and leg shackles, making it very difficult for them to walk, while the children stayed quietly beside the adults, staring outside with numb eyes, as if they had accepted their fate.

The doorways of these apartments were soon filled with people.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Rupert said to Dolai flatteringly, "Wizard Dolai, everyone is here, you can choose. These are either the royal family of Anmi or several major noble families. They all have decent talents. Those with poor talents are outside."

Dole nodded and looked over carefully.

At this time, behind the two of them, some people also followed and looked at these senior officials of Anmi with curiosity.

You can only see ordinary nobles outside, where can you see such an outstanding one?

These nobles, the men are handsome, the women are beautiful and have good figures, they are really enviable.

At this time, someone shouted, "Rupert, these people have so much money!"

Rupert glanced back and said with a chuckle, "Little Robert, you can't afford it. Give up."

The man immediately roared unwillingly, "There has to be a price."

Others nearby echoed the voice.

Dolai saw at this time that the senior officials of Anmi had grief and anger in their eyes, but they did not dare to raise their heads, and just stood there with their chests heaving.

Dolai thought that they accepted their fate, but they might not be able to accept being discussed casually as commodities. This was still immature.

Rupert started arguing with the nobles in the back.

Dolai ignored him. He glanced at everyone and suddenly said, "Has anyone among you ever worked as a housekeeper? I need a professional."

Everyone raised their heads, looked at Dolai, looked at each other, and then lowered their heads again.

At this time, a little child weakly raised his hand.

Behind him, an adult patted his head and pushed his hand back, but the child was not convinced and raised it again.

"Asshole, let him go. You have never been a housekeeper before. You will die if you don't do it well." As a slave, the man was very conscious.

"I followed Uncle An for a while and learned from him." The child said weakly.

Thinking of Uncle An, tears welled up in the child's eyes.

The man behind him suddenly froze in expression and stopped talking.

Dole looked at the little boy, then at the adult, and said, "Come out."
