Chapter 752: Better Men
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
After hearing the knocks from the door of the carriage, Zhang Tie moved his eyes away from the roof of a church in the distance .
Before any person came in, given the footsteps, Zhang Tie knew whom they were .
"Come in!" Zhang Tie said calmly .
Waajid, Zhang Tie's bodyguard, also a bear-killing fighter of the huge bear tribe, pushed open the door and took some guys in .
"Lord, I've brought them here!"
"Hmm, you can leave now!"
After receiving Zhang Tie's order, Waajid threw a glance at those guys as he seemed to warn them to be polite, before moving back quietly . After that, he closed the door .
Zhang Tie was familiar with those guys, those condemned criminals who were sent to Selnes Theater of Operations as cannon fodder——Hillman the old dog, Michelle the warehouse keeper, Figo the vet, Dinar the manager and Da Vinci, the broker of the slave trade in Stars Viewing City of Huaiyuan Prefecture .
Zhang Tie saved these guys in Selnes Theater of Operations and took them to Huaiyuan Prefecture and told them to execute a task with Da Vinci——buy a steamer ticket for those poor slaves and transport all of them to Ice and Snow Wilderness .
Over the past two years, they had been doing this . With the coordination of Spencer Clan, they had already transported more than 200,000 slaves to Ice and Snow Wilderness . Furthermore, they established 3 towns outside Eschyle City to hold those slaves .
After 2 years, all of these guys had changed . Hillman the old dog looked like a real businessman of a major clan; Michelle the warehouse keeper looked a bit more shrewd; Figo the vet looked as tender as a real doctor; Dinar the manager looked a bit merciful while Da Vinci the broker in the slave trade in Stars Viewing City looked fat .
They all wore wholly new elegant clothes . When they entered the carriage, after knowing that Peter Hamplester was going to meet them, they all looked a bit restraint and scared . After all, there was such a great gap between them and Peter Hamplester in status . Peter Hamplester was the Lord of Ice and Snow Wilderness . They had heard about the legends of this person on the first day they came to Ice and Snow Wilderness . By contrast, they were just small figures who worked with slaves . In their eyes, even the steward of Spencer Clan was a big figure, not to mention Peter Hamplester .
They wondered how Peter Hamplester knew their names and why would Peter Hamplester want to meet them .
At the sight of Zhang Tie, these guys were all shocked as they found that this Peter looked similar to Zhang Tie .
When the others still looked unbelievable, Hillman, who responded it firstly lowered his head and dared not see Zhang Tie's face any longer . The others also discovered something as they lowered their heads too . Da Vinci immediately changed his face . In a split second, his forehead had been covered with fine sweat beads .
They all understood what outcome they would face if small figures like them discovered something that they shouldn't have known .
"Take a seat . . . " Zhang Tie said kindly as he pointed at the two rows of luxury sofa inside the carriage .
After hearing Zhang Tie's raw voice, these guys' hearts palpitated at once . Hillman the old dog's lowered his head while Da Vinci almost fell down .
"You . . . " Figo the vet became stammered while being kicked slightly by Dinar on his side . He then hurriedly shut up .
Sitting on the sofa in a restraint way, they all looked strange which contained both shock and fear . They dared never see Zhang Tie's face .
"I'm very satisfied with what you've done these couple of years!" Zhang Tie opened his mouth .
Although Zhang Tie was sitting still inside the carriage, his battle qi had already penetrated through the walls and deck and covered all the sounds and shocks inside the carriage . This was a usage of battle qi which could only be mastered by knights, also a practical skill being used to prevent eavesdropping during conversations .
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, these guys didn't know what to say . Only Hillman the old dog sighed as he raised his head once again, "Your Excellency, we've not lived up to your expectation; perhaps this is the only thing we feel a bit proud of!"
"I heard you've changed a lot!"
"Actually, during the past two years, many people said we changed many slaves' lives; truthfully, we were changed by slaves!" Hillman watched Zhang Tie as he said, "Michelle married a girl who lost all of her family members in the war . He's now a police sergeant of a police station . He has become a father this year . Figo became a real vet; he teaches many students how to cure diseases for livestock and how to survive in Ice and Snow Wilderness . Dinar invented a senior papermaking technology with twigs and leaves of sea-buckthorn trees . He's now a boss of a factory with over 3,000 employees . In some harbor cities in the south of Blackson Humans Corridor, the name Da Vinci has become many slaves' hope to shake off pains!"
"What about you?"
After thinking for a second, Hillman replied, "Previously, my only target was to make money; however, now I find that there're many other things that one desires for . When you walk in a small town, if all the residents that you see smiles towards you, appreciates and respects you, trusts you and watches you with their sparkling eyes, shakes your hands with warm, exciting and quivering hands, you will also change . Although it's good to have money; it's even better to be appreciated and respected by others!"
Zhang Tie knew that Hillman's words were true . When they took those slaves to Ice and Snow Wilderness by ship, they were actually changed by those slaves . These condemned criminals who were destined to be cannon fodder on the battlefield seemed to find back their lives as they entered another stage of life .
