Chapter 24 Oil and water in bone residue

The half-grown children taken away from the slums by the "Diwei" were all turned into slaves.

The slave symbol of the ‘Diwei’ was printed on his forehead, and Li Yinguang held the slave purchase agreement of the ‘Diwei’ in his hand, which seemed very formal, but also a bit intimidating.

Xiaoman, her brother Scarface, and a child named "Heizi".

She is a newsboy who distributes newspapers at the "Manbach Town Tabloid". The "mysterious gem" stitched in her heart once reminded Li Yinguang that this girl who looks very manly has dark blood in her body and is the widow of the legendary "Shadow Clan".

‘Shadow Clan’, the darling of the night, a born assassin.

This is the introduction of 'Mysterious Gem' to 'ShadowClan'.

The three children are not very old. Scarface is the eldest, only fifteen years old, Xiaoman is only eleven years old, and Heizi is thirteen years old.

If Li Yinguang hadn't asked Old Man Zhou to contact him in time, the pretty Xiaoman might have fallen into the hands of a certain little boss and been violated.

He raised his head from the 'slave contract' in his hand, looked at the three people who looked sluggish and pale years ago, and sighed: "I really want to save all the children, but I don't have the ability!"

He raised his hand and handed them the 'slave contract'.

Li Yinguang has tried his best to protect them. He may not be a good person, at least he is not so cold-blooded!

"If you want to leave, you can leave. If you don't want to leave, you can stay and work in the 'Castle' Iron City or the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' newspaper office. You will get a salary every day."

Plop!

Heizi knelt on one knee with a firm look in his eyes: "Master!"

There is a contract between slaves and slave owners, which is an active and passive relationship. Some people think that the "contract" is just a piece of paper, but in fact it is not. It is the basic rule that operates in the framework of this world.

The 'contract' has a rule effect, just like there are 'alchemy' and other things that cannot be understood scientifically in this world.

Li Yinguang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't want your loyalty. You are free now, not my slaves!"

The girl named Heizi has stubbornness in her eyes, although she doesn't look like a girl at all, more like a young man.

"But you spent money!"

It was their fate to be captured by the "Diwei", and it was also their fate to be bought by Li Yinguang. They lived in the slums, and they all had an idea subconsciously.

There are no bad people in this world. Li Yinguang spent money to buy them from the Diwei, and he is their master.

"Owner!"

Scarface also knelt down on one knee.

Finally, there was Xiaoman. Her eyes were confused and a little scared. She was taken away at night and bought back by Li Yinguang. The whole experience had frightened her.

"Fine!"

Li Yinguang smiled bitterly and didn't say anything. Heizi's words spoke to his heart. Yes, he spent money. He can't always act like a bad guy.

After noon, the 'Diwei' was greeted by Lord Manbach and the dignitaries of Manbach Town, and left towards the north. They were going to the 'Holy Dragon Snow Mountain' to hunt the frost dragon through the 'Snowy Wasteland'.

When I come back, will I pass through the town of Manbach again? Only a son of a bitch will think about this.

"Master, the thousands of people driven down from the armored city of the 'Diwei' will be auctioned off as slaves, and the time is set to be tomorrow morning!"

The housekeeper Geda heard the gossip and ran back to report to Li Yinguang.

Li Yinguang sighed, it was really the dark age of cannibalism: "Didn't it mean that those people were all abandoned by the 'Diwei'?"

Butler Godar nodded: "Yes, but even the garbage and useless waste abandoned by the 'Diwei' are people who have lived on the 'Diwei' armored city, and they know something that is unknown to others.

Things, these news, and experiences are all worth something."

The waste from a super armored city like the 'Diwei' still has some use value in Manbach Town.

Therefore, all the usable value must be ‘squeezed’ out, even if only the oil and water in the bones and dregs are left, we must not let it go!

Li Yinguang nodded thoughtfully: "Then let's go and have a look tomorrow!"

After a slight pause, he changed the topic and asked: "At the factory store directly under the Goblin Empire, is Miss Kayali unhappy?"

Due to the visit of the "Diwei", the date between the two did not go as planned.

"This time I went, I didn't see Miss Kayali herself. I only saw the shopkeeper in the store, who said he would help you pass the gift to Miss Kayali!" said the housekeeper Goda.

Li Yinguang was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked, "Did Old Bol tell you where Miss Kayali went?"

Butler Goda shook his head: "No explanation!"

The 'Goblin Empire' is a huge force. All the Goblin tribesmen on the land belong to this huge empire. Under normal circumstances, few people will touch them.

Therefore, Kayali should not be in any danger.

Don't underestimate the weak body of the 'goblins', their fighting power is not low.

"The newspaper office sent someone over to ask when the next issue of the newspaper will be published and printed." The official Goda changed the topic to the 'Manbach Town Tabloid'.

Li Yinguang thought for a while and asked: "Do you think it is appropriate to continue publishing the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' now?"

The slums and urban areas had just been looted, and the remaining people were probably still in shock.

"Master, the people with the most purchasing power in Manbach Town are not the poor in the slums, nor the ordinary people in the ordinary residential areas, but the rich and powerful who have some spare money, as well as the explorers and explorers who survive by hunting, bounties, and scavenging.

Adventurers."

Butler Goldar meant to tell Li Yinguang that the Iron Armored City of 'Diwei' did not actually have much influence on the consumer class in Manbach Town.

And the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' is not a newspaper specially opened for the poor, common people and other lower classes.

"Has the sample report been released?"

Li Yinguang sighed inwardly. He knew that some of his ideas had not changed yet, and those information ideas were not completely suitable for this dark steampunk world.

"It's done, and Zhibai Pavilion has also negotiated several advertising business orders!" the housekeeper Goda said with a smile.

"Order?"

Li Yinguang's eyes lit up: "How many companies?"

The housekeeper Goda said: "One company ordered three half-page supplements for advertising pages, and four companies jointly bought the half-page supplements, so this issue of 'Manbach Town Tabloid' only has two supplements, and the sponsor advertising space has also been sold.

Four went!”

Each supplement of the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' can probably earn one or two hundred silver cattle coins, which is not bad, at least you won't lose money!

"This Zhibai Pavilion is quite capable. Bring him over later and let me see him!" Li Yinguang nodded.

Butler Goda said respectfully: "Okay!"
