Zheng Wenwen was forcibly dragged onto the airship by Gu Hanhan and was very unhappy. Sitting in the corner glumly, not talking to anyone, paying no attention to anyone, even Gu Hanhan pulled her to see the rabbit she had rescued. The girl was cleaned and treated and put into a dormant state to regenerate her broken shoulder blades and broken bones. His arms didn't even let her show a smile. It was obvious that he was angry with Gu Hanhan and herself.
Gu Hanhan understood Zheng Wenwen's mood very well, so he ignored her and ran to take a bath himself. When she came back, she put on a silk floral skirt, sat down comfortably at the dining table, picked up a shiny knife and fork, and then called Zheng Wenwen, "Have you not eaten yet?"
Zheng Wenwen still didn't calm down. She turned her head and didn't want to pay attention to Gu Hanhan. After a long time, she muttered angrily: "You can eat it yourself, I can't eat it! I'm waiting for the rabbit!"
"It will take another hour to wait for the rabbit. It's already past lunch and it's time to have afternoon tea." Gu Hanhan's persuasion was as sincere as his words. "The total population of slaves in the universe is several trillion. Every day, every hour, every minute, every day." Someone will die every second. What we haven’t seen, there may be many more miserable and pitiful fates than the rabbit girl you just saved. If you want to save it, can you save it? It’s other people’s business to be angry and hungry. You, you are not worthy of being hungry for nothing. The universe is like this, it will go on the same without you, if you don’t learn to be more tolerant, you won’t be able to survive.”
The persuasion made Zheng Wenwen roll her eyes and snorted, "I'm not a slave owner as generous as you."
Gu Hanhan smiled: "Aren't you just angry that I didn't let you bravely rescue those slave children? OK, let me ask you."
Gu Hanhan raised his eyes at the personal valet, and the valet invited Chief Garr. Attendant Garr reported to Gu Hanhan that all the slave children in the claw machine had been bought. Counting the rabbit girl just brought on board, there were a total of 187 people. Now they are sent to the warehouse of New Route Company for physical examination and injury treatment. The attendant Huang He is responsible for this matter. After speaking, he specially gave Gu Hanhan the report he had prepared in advance and the list of slave children.
The report and list totaled only a few pages. Gu Hanhan glanced at it and raised it, smiling: "Come and see, Wenwen, Mr. Gal has bought all the children for you. Use your own Oh, the money. I’ll give you two yuan for each child. One hundred and eighty-seven children, a total of three hundred and seventy-four from you."
Zheng Wenwen walked over and took the list. She compared it with the translator and saw that it was indeed the transaction list and the ownership transfer document. It was densely packed with the genetic numbers and chip sequence codes of the 187 slave children. At this time, the servant also brought over the wallet that Zheng Wenwen had just left outside. She picked up the wallet that was handed to her hand with a gold silk pillow, opened it and saw that there were odd and neat items inside. The banknotes and payment cards had all been put back properly, not a penny more, not a penny less, just right. Three hundred and seventy-four dollars less.
Zheng Wenwen was very embarrassed, feeling that she had wrongly blamed Gu Hanhan, and it was wrong to lose her temper at her randomly, but she couldn't bear to apologize, so she couldn't help but sit down at the dining table. Looking at the knives and forks on the table, she said, "Bring me a pair of chopsticks."
The male servant brought a row of gold, silver, jade, rhinoceros, ivory and sandalwood to Miss Wenwen. Zheng Wenwen picked up a pair of bamboo items and put them together before she could reach forward. Out of the corner of her eye, she happened to catch sight of the male servant still holding gold items. Si Tuozhen stood nearby and did not leave. In the center of the pillow, next to where the wallet had been, there was a shiny gold key. The key is small and exquisite, with a rose pattern engraved throughout, and the gold surface is inlaid with various pleated and shining gems. Zheng Wenwen was so excited that she took the key in her hand and couldn't put it down immediately.
"Is this for me?" she asked Gu Hanhan, "It's so beautiful. What is this for?"
Gu Hanhan couldn't answer this question. She didn't know what the key was for. It was her first time seeing it, so she had to look at the valet.
The footman lowered his head and replied: This is the key to the compass. "
Zheng Wenwen was still confused and confused, but Gu Hanhan said "oh" and suddenly realized.
"This is the key authorization given by the Slave Trading Agency. You can use it to replace the control brain waves of the chip." Gu Hanhan said in a decent manner, "Now you can use it to control the brain waves of the chip in the little slave's body." Replace it with your brainwaves. This seems to be the most advanced key authorization. The gold one is very simple to operate. Just use the key ring to generate a compass. Then these one hundred and eighty-seven children will be completely under your control. , you are their master.”
Zheng Wenwen shook her hand, and the key jingled to the ground, and jumped to the ground under the dining table. She was silent for a moment, then bent under the table, reached the golden key, picked it up, and put it close to her hand.
"Don't be ridiculous, Hanhan," she said, "You know I can't take these children, let alone take them back to Earth."
But Gu Hanhan looked serious: "I'm not kidding. Since I bought them, someone must take care of them and be responsible for not letting them starve to death. You don't have to take them back to the earth, the rabbit will come to the universe to be a trade representative anyway. , we are also planning to open your earth specialty product company. You will spend most of your time in the universe in the future, and at least you will have another home in the universe. So, wouldn’t it be better to just keep these children as your slaves? Anyway, Slavery is common in the universe, and you will always buy slaves in the future - aren’t we coming to the slave market today just to accompany you to buy slaves?”
However, Zheng Wenwen became even more panicked after hearing this. She completely forgot about her chopsticks, hurriedly grabbed a pair of knives and forks, and crossed them in front of her chest, thinking she was setting up a pair of armored weapons.
"Oh, how can I own a slave and be an evil slave owner? My intention is not to be the master of these children. I don't want to buy a slave. Hanhan, I came here today not really to buy a slave. I didn’t want to leave the earth and open a souvenir company. I mean, although I hoped that I could have my own souvenir company, I never thought that opening a souvenir company would mean leaving the earth and settling down in the universe—— We’re traveling, aren’t we?”
She said in a daze: "These little children, little children, my original intention was to let them escape from their suffering and become free and not slaves. But since you said they were going to starve to death, of course someone should be responsible for them - yes, you said Yes, I want to save them. I am the one who said the money to buy them. I should be responsible. But Hanhan, I - please, help me. If there is no way to make these children safe. Leave, then please take them in for me. Anyway, you already have five hundred slaves, now it’s okay to have another hundred, right? Please, if there is anything that needs my help, I will definitely answer it.”
Gu Hanhan smiled: "Of course it won't be a problem for me to raise a hundred more little slaves. However, Wenwen, since your original intention is to let them escape from suffering and live freely, why do you still entrust them to me as slaves? The universe is not empty. Institutions that take in these children. The galaxy is so vast, the light of freedom of the Human Alliance and the Lighthouse Star is so dazzling, and there are countless organizations established in the name of the United Nations. How come there is no organization that is used to rescue orphans so that they do not have to become slaves and playthings? To grow up and be self-reliant? The God of the universe is so omnipresent, our temple religion is so great, and there are countless religious orders under his command, how come there is no one who can redeem free slaves and help them escape from servility to survive and become self-reliant?"
Zheng Wenwen didn't understand what Gu Hanhan was saying, but she was obviously calmed by her tone and the emotion in her tone. She opened her mouth and asked, "Is there any?"
"Yes." Gu Hanhan nodded, and then said to Chief Garr: "Please send someone to see if our lovely Chairman Norman has finished his lunch. If so, please ask him to come over. ——”
Of course, "Lovely Chairman Norman" hadn't finished his lunch yet. He couldn't bear to eat since he got on the airship. His heart was shrouded by an ominous dark cloud, so heavy that he had no appetite at all. But now, summoned by his great and supreme master himself, he had no choice but to go hungry. Chairman Norman's steps were as heavy and tragic as rushing to the execution ground for the guillotine. How much he wanted to retreat, but there was no way to retreat.
Gu Hanhan was very happy to see Norman appearing in front of him almost immediately——
"Oh, Chairman Norman, you don't have to kneel down. Please stand up and speak. I just want to ask you. As far as you know, is there any charity organization or religious order that can take in those who have lost their owners and been imprisoned?" Their masters free or abandon the little slaves, help them apply for freedom certificates and relevant identity documents, and help them find a way to make a living in the universe that can support themselves in the future?"
The ominous premonition came true on the spot, and Norman accepted his fate almost instantly.
"Yes, Miss." He said, "We Wuqi Foundation and Holy Angel Order can set up one ourselves. Prioritizing children without legal status to provide education and help is close to the purpose of our foundation, and it can be easily approved. As long as they sign an indentured servant contract first, they will claim to be training little slaves."
Gu Hanhan smiled: "That's great, Chairman Norman, you are such a good person - how long will it take for you to be ready to officially increase this good deed? Three days? Are three days enough for you? "
"Two days, miss," Norman replied with a cheerful mentality of giving up on himself and breaking the pot. "Two days is enough - no, two days will not be used. Tomorrow night at the latest, we can make all kinds of preparations." Let’s officially start helping those poor children.”
"This is great." Gu Hanhan clapped his hands happily, and then expressed concern in a compassionate tone: "But will increasing this good deed put pressure on the fund and the funds of the monastery? I I remember you told me before that the foundation's assets are very tight. So I think Mr. Norman, you should act within your capabilities at the beginning - well, let's set the initial scale at 500,000. Do you think it's suitable? Maintain the scale of 500,000 little slaves in institutions?”
"It's a perfect fit!" Norman gritted his teeth and promised, "There is no financial pressure for Miss to worry about."
"Very good." Gu Hanhan nodded, "Mr. Norman, I just feel at ease with your work."
Then she turned to tell Gal: "In this case, tomorrow night, all the children will be handed over to the Wuqi Foundation and the Angel Order. New Line Company is a slave company after all, and it is not appropriate for these children to live in their territory all the time. .”
After arranging all this, Gu Hanhan looked at his friend with a smile: "So, now, Miss Zheng Wenwen, are you willing to take the initiative to release your one hundred and eighty-seven little slaves and entrust them to Wuqi Fund and The Order of Holy Angels?”
Zheng Wenwen was completely stunned and stammered: "Of course...of course."
