Chapter 93 I Bought You Too

"What did you say?"

The bearded middle-aged man was angry in his tone and was about to lose his temper.

And at this moment, Assam instantly drew out his sword.

"Keng!"

The cold sword tip was immediately aimed at the bearded middle-aged man.

In the corner next to him, Sarah had already locked onto him silently.

At this moment, the bearded man felt as if he was being stared at by a thousand-year-old poisonous snake!
It seemed as if he would be swallowed by the poisonous snake in the next second!

The aura of Assam and Sarah alone was too much for him to bear.

After seeing the armor on Assam, he seemed to finally wake up at this moment.

The bearded middle-aged man turned pale and then collapsed to the ground in fear.

He knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Sir, please spare my life! Sir, please spare my life!"

"I was too reckless and offended you. Jeffrey begs for your forgiveness!"

Hearing the bearded man's cry for mercy, many villagers passing by looked over here.

However, because the aura emanating from Assam was too strong, the villagers did not dare to get close.

The bearded man continued to kneel on the ground, his face pressed directly into the snow, and his whole body was shaking.

However, after about ten seconds, Cao Xing still did not speak.

For the bearded man kneeling on the ground, almost every second was complete torture.

He was afraid that the young man would be unhappy and would order the knight next to him to chop off his head with a sword.

The bearded man could see that with the strength of this knight, none of the militiamen in the entire village could be his match.

In other words, even if this knight killed himself, [Hogg Village] would be unable to do anything to him.

Thinking of this, the bearded man's heart was filled with fear!
However, Cao Xing did not do anything to him, but said to Danny: "Next one."

Danny was also shocked by Assam's powerful aura. He came to his senses and said quickly: "Okay...Okay..."

Then, he took Cao Xing and others and walked deeper into the village.

Assam put away his sword, and Sarah hid her breath again.

The middle-aged man with a big beard was left shivering in the cold wind.

It was not until Cao Xing and the others walked away that the middle-aged man suddenly stood up from the ground.

He didn't dare to stay for a moment and turned back to his room.

With a 'bang' sound, the door was slammed shut!
...

Danny continued to lead the way.

After seeing Assam demonstrate his strength, villager Danny became more enthusiastic and kept explaining to Cao Xing along the way.

Soon, they arrived in front of another building which also had two floors.

Danny smiled charmingly, "Sir, this is Master Mel's home. He is easy to talk to."

"And Master Mel's daughter Elisa is so beautiful. Her little face is as clean as the pebbles in the river. All the young men in our Hog Village want to marry her."

Cao Xing was speechless. His daughter is beautiful, what does it have to do with me?

Danny, with a smile on his face, took the initiative to go forward and knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!
This time, an old man with a sad face, about fifty years old, walked out.

His deep gaze swept over Cao Xing and others.

And Cao Xing also took a look at his attributes.

[Hogg Villager: Mel Veron lv7]

[Affiliation: Ice Crystal Kingdom]

[Level: First-order ordinary]

【HP: 540】

[Skill: Intermediate breeding skills (Having raised various livestock for many years, you have mastered the habits of livestock and can raise better quality livestock.)]

[Talent: None]

Current status: Neutral

...

Cao Xing's eyes lit up when he saw Mel's skills.

There are actually intermediate life skills!
This is a talent in animal husbandry!
At this time, villager Danny stepped forward and explained to old Mel the purpose of Cao Xing and his companions' visit.

Old Mel nodded, he seemed very polite.

"Dear distinguished guests, I already know why you are here."

"If you want to buy my cows, then you have to pay according to the market price: 5000 kronor for an adult yak, 2000 kronor for a sheep, and 3500 kronor for a big-horned cow."

"What do you think?"

After hearing this, Cao Xing's mouth twitched.

This price was a little beyond his expectations. One yak could even buy five slaves.

But it’s normal if you think about it.

After all, yaks and sheep are creatures that can produce resources sustainably.

In this world, livestock is indeed more valuable than people.

"Mr. Mel, how many yaks, sheep, and big-horned cows do you have on your ranch?"

Hearing this question, a thoughtful look appeared in old Mel's eyes.

However, he replied: "Hog is just a small village, and there are not many resources for me to raise a large number of livestock."

"Currently, there are 11 yaks, 15 sheep, and 11 big-horned dairy cows in Meier Farm." Hearing this, Cao Xing thought for a moment.

The total value of these cattle and sheep is more than 100,000 kronor.

No wonder Danny calls these farmers "masters", it turns out they are all local rich people.

Cao Xing seemed to have made some decision at this time.

He said directly: "Mr. Meier, I will buy all the cattle and sheep on your farm."

"Also, I'll offer you another 20,000 crowns to buy you out as well. What do you think?"

All this adds up to about 150,000 kronor.

Although Cao Xing doesn't have that much money now, he still has a lot of valuable things in his backpack.

Amber pebbles, moonstones, and silk fabrics can all be sold at extremely high prices.

Old Mel thought he had misheard. He scratched his ears and asked in confusion, "Sir, what did you say?"

Cao Xing repeated: "I said, I bought you too."

This time, not only Mel, but even Danny beside him was stunned.

They have seen many people buying cattle and sheep, but this is the first time they have seen people being bought together.

Seeing their confused looks, Cao Xing explained, "To be honest, I am a lord. I have a territory not far from Hog Village."

"We need professionals to raise these cattle and sheep when we buy them back."

"I think you are a good fit."

Old Mel wanted to refuse, but he glanced at Assam next to him.

In fact, when Assam threatened the bearded man just now, Old Mel had already seen it, and he couldn't help but be surprised at the strength of this tall man.

This is a powerful knight, even stronger than some second-level knights!
But I didn't expect that they would find me in the blink of an eye.

Old Mel suddenly thought: "If I am in the territory guarded by this knight, I don't have to worry about my personal safety, right?"

He asked tentatively: "My Lord, in your territory, don't you have to worry about the invasion of snow demons at night?"

Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, my territory is absolutely safe."

Asam on the side also said: "Your Majesty is right. Our territory has a very strong defense force. Even I am not the strongest in the territory."

"My Lord, there are many companions under my command who are stronger than me. They are much stronger than the defense force of your village."

Assam finished speaking, at this moment, old Mel was really moved!

The defense of [Hogg Village] is not strong. In this snowy land, there are always some hungry creatures that will rush into the village and attack the villagers.

At night, some scary creatures would invade.

Especially today, they saw with their own eyes that several meteors suddenly hit the village.

The meteors turned into ice nests, from which emerged a group of monsters with ice spikes.

Many villagers died at the mouths of those monsters, and even a lot of militiamen died.

This made Old Mel even more unwilling to stay in Hog ​​Village.

He hesitated to speak, as if he really wanted to agree.

However, after a struggle, Old Mel sighed and said, "My Lord, I am indeed willing to go to your territory, but I cannot leave Hog Village now."

"Oh? Why?"

"Because I'm waiting for my daughter to come back."

Hearing this, Cao Xing asked in confusion: "Is your daughter out?"

Old Mel sighed and said, "Yes, Elisa has been lively since she was a child. This time, she insisted that she found a group of cloud yaks in Luoxue Lake and said that she wanted to tame them and bring them back for me to raise."

“Alas… But the sacred creature, the Cloud Yak, hasn’t appeared in the Snowstorm Plains for many years. How could Elisa possibly have discovered such a creature?”

"But she ignored my advice and went to Snowfall Lake alone."

"This trip will take two days..."

Cao Xing frowned, "Didn't you send out the militia to look for him?"

Old Mel shook his head. "Luoxue Lake is dozens of kilometers away from the village. The militia in the village are too weak. They don't want to go too far."

Having said that, Old Mel looked at Assam beside Cao Xing and suddenly thought of something.

"My Lord... those militiamen don't dare to go that far, but with your strength, we should be able to reach Falling Snow Lake."

"If you can bring my daughter back, I am willing to join your territory without charging any fees and with all my assets!"

Having said this, old Mel knelt down directly.

At the same time, the system prompt appears.

[Hog Village: Mel has issued a commissioned task to you. ]

[Mission content: Go to the vicinity of Luoxue Lake, find his daughter Elisa, and bring her back to Old Mel.]

[Mission Reward: Mel joins your territory.]

【Whether to accept? 】

When Cao Xing saw the system prompt, he did not accept it immediately, but first glanced at the countdown above his head.

[Due to nightfall: 1 hours and 31 minutes...]

He opened the map again and found the location of Luoxue Lake on it.

After a quick glance, it was about forty to fifty kilometers away from [Hog Village].

I don’t know how old Mel’s daughter found such a far place.

And the remaining time is not enough to go to Luoxue Lake.

Cao Xing said: "Mr. Mel, I can help find your daughter's whereabouts, but it's getting late now, and your daughter has been out for two days. I'm afraid..."
