"Right, bring more enforcers this ti, Sea Serpent Hirao, you personally lead the team, don’t let the ’big cow’ from the mountains kidnap them again."
"Yes!" The man known as the Sea Serpent acquiesced.
Sixty-six won panicked, not knowing what Yoshihara Village was, were they being resold?
One of the won bravely stepped forward, "I am well-versed in law, and I have worked as a community legal lecturer!"
"Law?" The viper laughed.
Seemingly finding it too hilarious, a large group of Japanese burst into laughter.
The woman knew this was a lawless place and hurriedly explained, "I understand that here, your rules are the rules; I an, I have work experience."
"Since you’ve built such a large village, you must have clerical staff, right? I can help you draft legal provisions and handle various lawsuits."
The viper maintained his smile, "What’s your na?"
The woman was overjoyed, thinking there was a chance, and quickly said, "My na is Jin ii."
"ii, is it? What ethnicity?"
"Korean."
The viper said indifferently, "Yamaguchi Village indeed has clerical staff, but we do not need won, especially not those who think too much."
Upon hearing this, Jin ii’s face turned pale, and she pleaded, "Then let farm, I can farm, I also saw salt fields, I’ve lived by the sea, I know how to make salt... just give food, don’t send to that kind of place."
Just as everyone thought that any mont there would be a shout, and then they would knock this woman to the ground and drag her away, the viper surprisingly nodded.
"Alright, not wanting to be sold can also be arranged."
Jin ii was thrilled, not expecting that she had actually managed to negotiate so benefits; if she could go make salt, at least there was legitimate work, and she could survive.
The viper smiled and said, "I like your courage; normally people would be too scared to speak, but you took the initiative to seek opportunities."
Then he said to Sasaki, "Let’s keep her. She’s so proficient in law, able to exploit loopholes, right? Send her to the penance ga, those dignitaries are rarely seen when it’s won participating."
Jin ii’s emotions were like a rollercoaster, both joyous and worried.
Hearing about participating in so ga, she felt a bit sad, but after all, she wasn’t sent to a worse place, she felt fortunate.
Only puzzled, what was this penance ga, they were all criminals, could the ga possibly redeem them?
But no matter what it was, the current treatnt, to soone who had witnessed skinning and even heart extraction, felt already quite good.
They even started to feel the viper was amiable and approachable, a stark contrast to the ever-terrifying Tanabu and the explosively violent Sasaki, they thought soone of a higher rank would be more frightening, but unexpectedly, he was surprisingly easy to talk to.
Suddenly many changed their perspective; seeing this, other won also boldly recomnded themselves, asserting that they could do it too.
"Bang!" The viper slapped the table.
Sasaki imdiately shouted and rushed to knock down the noisy ones to the ground, not hitting their faces, but that was tough enough.
Subsequently, others ca forth, taking the remaining sixty-five crying won away.
The viper said, "Opportunity is only given to the first brave one; the rest will follow the rules."
"I don’t want anyone disrupting anymore."
The newcors all nodded in agreent, their eyes hopeful for any further opportunities.
Gao Xin glanced around, noting so people’s gazes had changed, their bodies unconsciously stooping.
Realizing this viper was indeed a genuine serpent, inscrutable, compared to Tanabu, a blatantly cruel fellow who was relatively easy to understand.
But then the viper said sothing that made them feel as if they had fallen into an icy pit: "Since the quality of the won is not good, n will do as well, pick out those who are slender, fair-skinned, and good-looking."
"Yes!" Sasaki stepped forward and began selecting n.
The remaining prisoners were dumbfounded but had no way to resist.
Soon, Sasaki had selected eighty-five slender n, all of frail build, good physique, fair skin, and pretty features.
Even Luo Yan was picked, he was indeed very handso.
"My, my, my... I have a broken arm!" Luo Yan exclaid.
The viper also said, "Sasaki, why pick a man with a broken arm?"
Sasaki scratched his head, "To make him a woman would definitely be beautiful, so what if it’s broken? Maybe the custors prefer it flawed."
Luo Yan was horrified. ’Made into a woman’? Was there such an operation?
He hurriedly exclaid, "It won’t do, a broken arm is not beautiful, I’m not Venus."
Sasaki coldly said, "What Venus?"
Luo Yan twisted his face, trying to lessen his own attractiveness.
However, after examining him for a mont, the viper said, "Indeed, with an arm broken, he’s no good for other tasks."
Luo Yan’s eyes widened as if the sky had fallen.
Gao Xin was shocked, clenching his fists tight, feeling fortunate for his ordinary looks yet saddened by Luo Yan’s plight.
"No, no, no, I can do other things too! I graduated from a technical school, I’ve read a lot of books, I know many skills!" Luo Yan desperately struggled.
As it turned out, hearing he was a technical school graduate, the Japanese paused.
This indeed was a rare talent, contemplated the viper.
Yet Sasaki spoke first, "So educated? That’s even better, perhaps he could beco an Oiran!"
"What?" Luo Yan’s face turned green, thinking to himself after all the books he read, they wanted him to beco an Oiran?
"No, no, I’m not suited to be an Oiran, look at all these muscles!"
Luo Yan quickly tensed his muscles, although he was handso, his physique was indeed very fit, not the delicate type.
After thinking it over, the viper waved his hand, "No rush, too many people have died recently, the penance group is short-staffed, he’s a technical school graduate, send him to the penance ga first."
