Knight's Infinite Journey - Chapter 170 Conspiracy and Industry
Facing Yadimu, the new leader of the Sharman Gang, Lucky seemed trembling.
Of course, this is normal behavior.
If a normal person faced a gang leader, his performance would not be much better than him.
Yadimu, on the other hand, was speechless looking at Laqi’s performance.
“Okay, Mr. Larch, let’s be normal.”
“Take me to see your equipment.”
After the words fell, Laqi reluctantly nodded, then turned around and continued forward with Yadimu.
They moved forward, and then the scene here was revealed.
There was a lot of equipment in the venue, but most of it seemed to Yadimu to be quite crude.
The main use here is manpower. It cannot be said that there is no machinery and equipment, but it is generally still in a simple state.
Looking at this scene, Yadimu couldn’t help but shake his head.
In this case, it doesn’t seem to be worth a thousand gold coins.
loss.
This thought flashed through his mind, and then he looked at Lucky’s frightened face, and then walked aside.
He tested the new equipment and then picked up a glass of wine.
The wine has just been produced and is placed in a large jar. You need to pour it yourself when you want to drink it.
Yadimu tasted it roughly.
It tastes pretty good, with a rough flavor, which is not bad for Lima.
“How much is the monthly production of this wine?”
He looked at Lucky and asked.
“About three hundred cans.”
Lucky made an estimate and then spoke.
“Three hundred cans, which is almost three thousand pounds.”
Yadimu calculated it and said, “It’s pretty good.”
“However, this is the maximum output, and we generally don’t produce so much.”
Lucky couldn’t help but said: “If it doesn’t sell, it will be in your hands.”
“In the future, we will produce as much as possible every month.”
Yadimu looked at Laqi, smiled and said, “Don’t be afraid of getting hit in your hands.”
“This place belongs to me now, and I can’t lose anything to you.”
“As long as you do what I ask, after five years, I can cancel the debts you owe.”
He spoke softly.
“Really?”
Lucky’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Of course it’s true.”
Yadimu smiled and said: “I won’t lie to you yet.”
“It’s not just about canceling your debts. As long as you do a good job, it will naturally benefit you in the future.”
He said nonchalantly.
The reason why Yadimu took over this property was not only because he really wanted to expand some of the Shaman Gang’s business, but also because Lacchi, an experienced manager, was one of the important reasons.
Although his wine shop went bankrupt, his rich experience was still there, and some things would be much easier if he had his assistance.
As for the wine produced here, Yadimu will naturally come in handy later.
Lucky’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Ever since he went bankrupt and was controlled by the Sharman Gang, his life has been in darkness.
After all, if it falls into the hands of a gangster, there is no need to think too much about the consequences. It will definitely be quite miserable.
And Yadimu’s words undoubtedly gave him a glimmer of hope.
In five years, as long as he manages this winery well, he will be able to pay off his debts and start a new life.
Even if the other party’s credibility is in doubt, for him at this moment, this is already the greatest hope.
In fact, the treatment given to him by Yadimu was better than he imagined.
Not only was he allowed to work for five years to repay the debt, but he was also given a fixed salary every month as his daily expenses.
After all, he is the one doing things for him, so he cannot live in too much embarrassment.
As long as the wine produced here, Yadimu has another use.
Yadimu has been to the player’s world and studied there for a long time.
He remembered much of the knowledge there.
Relatively speaking, in the current context, there are several ways to get rich quickly.
Distilling liquor, refining salt, and refining sugar are the simplest and fastest industries.
Of course, because the technology is too simple, confidentiality is also a problem.
But in the current context, there are actually simple ways.
Start by decoupling the program and then use as many slaves as possible.
Slaves do not have any power and can be controlled and punished at will. Relatively speaking, they are much easier to control.
As long as these slaves are placed in a place that is easy to manage and prevent them from leaving, there is nothing to fear.
This can greatly delay the spread of technology and gain valuable development period.
By the time the technology was leaked, Yadimu had probably grown.
Of course, these all take time to do.
But now, what was before Chen An was another matter.
“You mean, that group of robbers didn’t find any women at all?”
In the quiet hall, Yadimu looked at Sai Luo in front of him, frowned and asked.
“good.”
Being stared at by Yadimu, Sailuo’s face was a little nervous. At this moment, he lowered his head and said respectfully: “I relied on a lot of connections. I went to inquire about it and found that this is indeed the case.”
“The Birch Bandits, they did attack a noble caravan before, but they didn’t find any noble lady inside.”
“There was a very handsome aristocratic young master who was killed by them.”
After hearing these words, Yadimu suddenly fell silent.
The news that Sailuo went to inquire about was naturally caused by Yadimu who asked him to go there.
This is to do the previous work well, and to see if I can use conventional methods to redeem my sister in this body first.
Otherwise, by the time he has trained the people from the Sharman Gang and led them to kill them, his predecessor’s sister would probably have been sold.
As a result, Sailuo found out such a result.
There were no aristocratic ladies in the motorcade, only a noble young master.
There is no doubt that the aristocratic young master who was killed refers to Yadimu himself.
But why is there no predecessor sister?
In other words, where did the older sister go?
Yadimu recalled the previous scene.
Indeed, at that time, he had fainted very early and had no memory of what happened next.
But before that, what happened to the previous sister?
His mind was completely blank and he had no clue at all.
What’s going on?
Various thoughts flashed through Yadimu’s mind.
“I also heard.”
Sailuo was silent for a moment, and then said: “The reason why they attacked that group of teams seems to be because someone hired them to do it.”
Someone hired them to take action?
Yadimu couldn’t help but feel moved.
At this moment, he smelled the atmosphere of conspiracy.
Their convoy was attacked by a group of bandits. It seemed like an accident before, but now it seems that it is not the case at all.
Why is this happening?
In an instant, family struggles, conspiracies, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through Yadimu’s mind.
He couldn’t help lowering his head, thinking for a moment before speaking, with a smile on his face: “You did a good job, go down and rest for a while.”
“If there is anything needed, I will let someone notify you at that time.”
“yes.”
Sai Luo nodded respectfully, then turned around silently and left this place.
Only Yadimu was left in the place.
He was still thinking about the previous problem.
Judging from what Sai Luo said, the previous attack by the bandit group was probably not an accident, but a conspiracy.
And the target of this conspiracy is probably Yadimu himself.
The predecessor’s sister may also be a victim, but she may also be one of the insiders.
The situation is getting more and more complicated.
Yadimu thought seriously.
But despite the complications, his goals remain unchanged.
No matter how the situation changes, it is an indisputable fact that the group of bandits attacked his convoy and made him look like before.
From this perspective alone, revenge against them is necessary.
In addition, after wiping them out, you can also get information about the group of employees from their mouths to see what kind of people they are.
Yadimu thought so in his heart.
The news brought by Sai Luo is not without good news.
At least my predecessor’s sister was out of the hands of those bandits.
In this way, Yadimu can safely train his subordinates and start operations slowly.
You don’t have to be in such a hurry when it comes to time.
The next day, Yadimu, Sailuo, and Grete came to the largest labor market in Lima.
It is said that it is about the labor market, but what is done in this place is completely different from that of future generations.
The business of this labor market is real human labor.
To put it simply, various slaves are sold to provide various services to those in need.
Of course, this is also the largest employment market.
Whether you want to hire bodyguards or want other services, you can basically get it here.
The city of Lima is located in a deserted area and is quite dangerous everywhere.
Wild beasts, bandits, and robbers, these are all sources of danger.
This dangerous environment has also given rise to the prosperity of the bodyguard business.
Of course, a qualified bodyguard is actually not easy to find.
After all, in this regard, it is not uncommon for you to spend money to hire a bodyguard, but in the blink of an eye he kills you and takes your body in exchange for money.
So vigilance is necessary at all times.
Otherwise, problems may easily occur.
Yadimu walked here and looked around with interest.
Beside him, Grete followed closely, acting as a bodyguard at this time.
Sailuo, on the other hand, was walking in front, like a local snake, introducing various situations and scenery here to Yadimu and others.
I’m talking about the scenery, but the environment is actually quite bad.
There were bloodstains everywhere, and occasionally you could even see some cold corpses, just placed there quietly for others to watch.
Soon after, Sailuo took Yadimu to a shop.
There are cages in the shop, and there are human beings in them, which are also referred to as slaves.
The slaves who were imprisoned everywhere sat there quietly, looking skinny and with no luster in their eyes.
As slaves, for the sake of cost, they are only fed a small amount of food every day, which can only barely ensure that they do not die.
In order to prevent them from escaping, they were locked in a cage, and they were not allowed to leave, regardless of whether they were eating, drinking or sleeping.
The temperature has begun to get cooler now, but many of their bodies are still naked there, looking bruised.
When a person is in such an environment, his whole spirit and energy are completely destroyed.
To a certain extent, this is no longer even a human being, but rather a walking corpse.
In order to build a place like a winery, Yadimu needed a large number of slaves on hand.
Sailuo was negotiating with the boss of the place in front, while Yadimu was walking aside.
He couldn’t bear to look at the scene just now, and he felt a little uncomfortable, so he and Gretel walked aside and came to another place.
It looks much simpler here.
There were quite a few mercenaries standing inside.
Most of the mercenaries were drinking there, but a few were standing there, even holding a sign in their hands, recording some unknown content in unfamiliar words.
“What are they talking about?”
Yadimu looked at Grete beside him, and then asked.
“Those…want to sell themselves into slavery.”
Grete looked there and said hesitantly: “They thought the price given to them by the Human Resources Trading Company was too low, so they came up to look for buyers themselves.”
Yadimu couldn’t help but fell silent.
He looked in front of him.
Along the road, there are many children running around in the streets and alleys.
These children also had prices marked on their bodies, and many of them also held signs.
“How many people like this are there in Lima?”
Yadimu was silent for a moment, and then asked.
“Quite a lot.”
Gretel also sighed: “There was a famine before, and the price of food in the whole place increased, and now it’s like this.”
He explained the root cause of this situation to Yadimu.
The conditions near the city of Lima are not very good.
There are too many people here, but relatively limited land.
Prior to this, there had been severe drought for three consecutive years, and all the food died in the fields.
Food prices soared, and many people starved to death.
This is also the reason why Lucky went bankrupt before.
After all, wine needs food to brew.
With the price of food soaring, the cost of his winery has greatly increased. The money he took from the Shaman Gang before can’t cover it for long.
This is a recipe for disaster.
Yadimu sighed, not knowing what to say.
“Have no mercy on them.”
Gretel looked at Artimu’s face and began to persuade: “These people have not been trained by the trading company, nor are they responsible for it. Once you buy them, they will easily escape.”
“And I’m afraid I won’t be able to find it back by then.”
Yadimu nodded, indicating that he understood.
They continued walking forward.
“Sir, do you need a bodyguard?”
At one place, they saw two strong men.
The strong man, wearing simple clothes made of beasts, stopped in front of Yadimu.
At first, Yadimu and I thought they were robbing, but the other person turned out to be honest and said with some embarrassment, “Do you need someone to work for you?”
