The Colin Mine is a vein managed by the Foster Coal Mine Chamber of Commerce under the Mel family. It mainly produces iron ore. It is located in the western suburbs of the slums. Du Dian called a carriage and took the three of them straight away.
There are very few horse-drawn carriages in the slums, and usually the managers of various chambers of commerce or factories stationed in the slums will take the horse-drawn carriages to facilitate travel.
It was the first time for the three of Joseph to ride in a carriage. They were a little nervous, and they dared not move tremblingly, for fear of soiling the horizontal chairs in the carriage.
Du Dian knew that they were used to hard times, and it was difficult to get used to it for a while, so he didn't say much. Half an hour later, everyone came to the Colin Mine in the western suburbs. In the small town in front of the mine, the most conspicuous and magnificent building was the branch of the Foster Coal Mine Chamber of Commerce in charge of this mine.
Du Dian stopped the carriage in front of the chamber of commerce.
After getting out of the carriage first, Du Dian paid a fare of eight copper coins, turned around and looked up at the chamber of commerce, greeted the three of Joseph, and came to the door of the chamber of commerce first.
The two young guards who were listlessly chatting at the door saw the person coming and stood up a little bit. After seeing that there were only a few children, they returned to their lazy appearance. One of them looked Du Dian up and down and said: "This is the Foster Chamber of Commerce , what's the matter with you?"
Du Dian said: "Let the highest person in charge here come to see me."
The two were taken aback, and one of them rolled his eyes and said, "Little brother, you are from a residential area, if you come here to buy minerals or place an order for your master, there will be someone there to receive you. As for I want to see our branch president, but he doesn't have time to talk to you."
Du Dian took out the guard's medal and said, "You just need to pass on the message. I'm here on behalf of Master Mel."
When the two guards saw the medal with crossed swords, they were stunned for a moment, and looked carefully, making sure that it was not forged. Then they looked at Du Dian suspiciously. One of them hesitated for a moment before, and said: "Wait a minute, I will ask , haven’t asked your name yet?”
"He's not qualified to know even if he said it." Du Dian said indifferently.
Hearing Du Dian's tone, the guard murmured in his heart, but the other party was a guard after all. Although he had no right to intervene in their chamber of commerce, Du Dian said that he came here on behalf of Master Mel's family, so the meaning was different.
Soon, the guard ran in.
Du Dian also followed in, and another guard dared not stop him.
Du Dian came to the hall of the chamber of commerce and scanned it roughly. He has seen the luxurious atmosphere of various buildings in the business district. This hall of the chamber of commerce, which can be called high-end and gorgeous in the slums, is a bit poor in his eyes. Just find one Sit down on the reception sofa, and ask Joseph and others to sit and rest.
The three of Joseph came to such a luxurious and clean place for the first time, and they were nervous and restrained, and they followed Du Dian closely.
After a while, the guard came back, followed by a tall woman.
The guard saw Du Dian sitting and resting in the hall, and immediately said respectfully to the woman behind him.
The woman looked at Du Dian, and when she glanced at the three Joseph sitting next to him, she frowned, with a look of coldness on her face, she walked over and said, "Excuse me, are you sent by Master Mel?" people?"
Du Dian noticed the questioning and a trace of contempt in the woman's eyes, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you the branch president here?"
"I'm the supervisor." Seeing that Du Dian didn't answer the question, the woman frowned.
Du Dian's face turned cold, but he didn't bother to pursue it. He said, "I'm here to mention a person, the miner who was assigned to you not long ago. Can you decide this matter?"
The tall slender woman immediately knew Du Dian's intention, and her expression was a little displeased: "All the miners have already been enslaved, if you have a nobleman's letter, I can ask you, otherwise, you must pay a high amount of compensation to get the job done. Buy it, but even if you buy it, you are still a slave, and you will not be compensated if you are killed by others."
Du Dian took out his hunter medal and said indifferently: "Do you know this?"
The tall slender woman was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I haven't seen it before."
"Then let your branch president come over!" Du Dian said.
The tall slender woman couldn't help being suffocated, and said: "You are a guard. If you don't have the letter from Master Mel's family, I have no right to inform you. The branch president is very busy with work, and not everyone can see it. You are a guard, and you have no right to interfere with our Chamber of Commerce."
Du Dian looked directly at her and said: "I can only tell you that as long as I say a word, you can end your job from now on. You are not qualified to know my identity. If you are acquainted, go and call your branch president, otherwise , at your own peril!"
The tall slender woman was so angry that she wanted to laugh, but when she saw Du Dian's cold gaze, she couldn't laugh. She suddenly thought that the other party could become a guard, and she shouldn't be some crazy person. A little apprehensive, maybe the other party really has some background that she doesn't know, she gritted her teeth slightly and said, "Alright then, you wait here, I'll help you notify the president."
After speaking, he turned around and left quickly.
The three of Joseph were a little stunned. They didn't expect Du Dian's attitude to be so tough and domineering, which was completely different from the taciturn and thin boy in their impression.
A moment later, a middle-aged man in a black suit followed the tall woman, and saw Du Dian and the others from a distance, his brows were wrinkled, but he still maintained his politeness, and he stepped forward and said, "Hello, I am The branch president here, who are you?" He looked at Du Dian, as if he was going to let them go as soon as Du Dian's answer dissatisfied him.
Du Dian naturally felt the doubts and impatience in the eyes of the other party, and he was too lazy to say more. He raised the Hunter Medal and said, "Do you know?"
The middle-aged man's eyes were sharp, and he saw the pattern on the medal immediately. He couldn't help shrinking his pupils, and looked at Du Dian in horror. He quickly reacted, bent down quickly, and respectfully said: "I have seen you, sir."
Seeing that he knew him, Du Dian put away the coldness in his eyes, and ordered: "I want to mention a person, named Barton, who is a miner who was assigned to you not long ago. You let him come here immediately."
The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "Yes, let's do it now." He turned his head and waved to the tall slender woman, signaling her to deal with it immediately.
The tall slender woman couldn't help being astonished when she saw his awe-inspiring attitude. She had only seen this attitude from the president when the General Chamber of Commerce came to inspect it. She couldn't help but think of Du Dian's previous words, and the hairs on her back stood up slightly. Resist the urge, otherwise you may really lose your job.
Half an hour later, the tall slender woman came back with a dark and thin boy like a monkey. She frowned slightly, endured the boy's unpleasant smell, brought him to Du Dian, and said respectfully: "My lord , this is the person you want."
Du Dian's gaze had already seen Barton, and what made him a little stunned was that Barton, who hadn't seen him for three years and was a little lame, turned out to be like a little old man, with a dark body and an extremely thin body. Ribs, messy hair, no flesh in the face, making the eye sockets deep.
Barton's eyes fell on the three of Joseph, and he was a little stunned.
The three of Joseph recognized Barton at a glance, jumped up from their seats, stepped forward and said, "Boss, it's me, we're here to find you."
"You, why are you so thin?"
"Don't you even have food to be a miner?"
The three looked at the thin Barton, both pleasantly surprised and heartbroken.
Barton's throat was hoarse, and he said in confusion, "You, why did you come here?"
"Dean brought us here." Kruen pointed to Du Dian on the sofa, and said, "Dean redeemed us all."
"Di, Dean?" Barton looked at Du Dian in a daze.
Du Dian didn't expect to torture him like this in just one year of life as a miner, and sighed: "It's me, I'm late, are you okay?"
Only then did Barton confirm that he did not admit his mistake, tears welled up in his eyes, and said: "You still, you still remember me, I thought, thought..."
Du Dian sighed and said: "I have been to other places in the past three years and I can't leave, otherwise I can redeem you in advance."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was even more convinced of his identity, and said respectfully: "My lord, Barton is the youngest miner here, and he has always been well taken care of, but the living conditions of the miners are inherently poor, as you know, so he changed his mind." If this happens, there is nothing we can do about it, it’s all the rules from above.”
"Shut up first." Du Dian glanced at him.
The middle-aged man was startled, and shut his mouth immediately, without any temper. He knew what kind of monster he was facing. Even if he killed him, he would be punished at most. For this kind of existence, he could only keep his distance.
The tall slender woman froze for a moment, and suddenly felt that she had underestimated Du Dian's identity.
"Let's go." Du Dian got up and said, he didn't pursue anything. Although Barton's life here is definitely not as "very cared for" as the middle-aged man said, at least there is one sentence that the other party did not say wrong. above regulations.
The weak can only obey.
