Chapter 595: Chapter 595
Du You, who knew nothing about creature training, used his own crude methods to train, but the results were quite good.
Regardless, Du You took his goods to the market and sold all his spoils. The stuff wasn’t much, hence the earnings weren’t much either.
Of course, since there wasn’t much expenditure this time, he didn’t even have to replenish his potion supply.
After a while, Du You went to the auction house. Not finding anything he needed, he decided to put up his saplings and those Crocodile’s Neidan for sale. He wanted to barter what he could and sell what he couldn’t.
Then, he headed out of the market. Suddenly, Du You remembered something and contacted the sisters, "Have you bought everything? What’s for dinner tonight? Let me know if there’s anything missing, so you can get it. Why aren’t you saying anything? What are you doing?"
He found it odd when the sisters didn’t respond. Perhaps they didn’t notice the notification on their wristwatches.
Du You thought it through and opened his panel. The map displayed the sisters’ location. After all, as Du You’s loyal followers, he had considerable influence over them in many ways.
"Strange, what are the two of them doing at the entrance of the wet market?" he wondered.
Du You noticed that they had been standing at the entrance of the wet market for a while - neither going in nor coming out. He was initially considering having the sisters sell some fruits with light attributes on his behalf.
"Whatever, let him go himself and check out what’s going on", he thought. He didn’t worry too much; after all, this was the Imperial Capital. No one dared to cause trouble here.
He took an automated car and returned to the wet market near his house, only to find the two still standing at the entrance. This wasn’t just an ordinary wet market; it was different for professionals and ordinary people.
The market for Professionals was in the central area with many special ingredients, while the market for regular people was on the outskirts, surrounding the central area. The two sisters were standing at the entrance of the central area.
When Du You arrived, he found a large crowd of onlookers gathered at the scene. Chapters fırst released on novel※fire.net
"This is strange. Is someone setting up a stall here, or is there some sort of treasure?" he thought. He couldn’t understand why so many people were gathered here, and why no one had come to rectify the situation.
When Du You squeezed into the crowd, he suddenly heard a loud commotion.
"You two, now that you’ve become Professionals, you no longer acknowledge me as your father! How pathetic I was, raising you both with hard work and you repay me !" a man shouted.
"Yeah, how can you treat us ? We just need you to give a bit of Crystal Coins for some equipment. It is nothing for you but it can increase my chances of survival. Also, my brother is about to go through Law Formalization. You can’t just abandon us!" A young man standing next to the old man pointed at a boy in the back.
The frail-looking youngster was extremely quiet, standing timidly in the back.
"You two, once you grow up, don’t care about your family? How do I have daughters like you? Aren’t you helping us in our old age?"
"I think it’s right not to support you." Suddenly, a voice sounded from the side.
"What did you say? Isn’t it unfilial of a daughter not to support her father?" The old man roared, turning his head towards the newcomer. The surrounding crowd pointed towards Du You, the one who had spoken.
"Old man, what do you think you’re doing with my people? Don’t forget, your two daughters were already sold to me."
The crowd fell silent. Now that they had been sold to him, they belonged to him. The existence of slavery was widely accepted in this world. No one had ever heard of selling someone and then having them return to support their family.
"You, you are bullying with your power. Who, who sold them to you?" The old man finally recognized Du You. Although he was still yelling loudly, his tone sounded uncertain.
The two women looked at their owner approaching, and they both lowered their heads in shame.
Du You stepped forward and pulled the two behind him, "What? Don’t you like to admit it? Don’t forget, the Contract was legally verified by the Certification Office and all documents are available."
"No, you forced me into it. It was a coerced sale!" The old man suddenly blamed Du You, shouting angrily.
Du You’s smile turned icy, and he was actually accusing him. Years of killing had made Du You almost lose control and release his killing intent. However, even the slightest leakage scared the old man and his eldest son.
Although the old man’s eldest son had Law Formalization and was a Professional, the gap between Professionals was significant. The murderous intent from Du You shook the young man to the core and he almost wet himself.
"Hmph, you dare twist the truth. Fortunately, I always like to leave a backup when confronting dealing with issues. The videos of you selling your daughters, I kept them all. They haven’t been altered and can be certified by the Magic Network. A layman accusing a Capital University Professional, this crime..."
The sisters hurriedly tugged at Du You’s sleeve, shaking their heads anxiously, and Du You managed to suppress his fury a bit.
"You, how could you do this, they are my daughters. Don’t I have the right to sell them to you?"
The crowd finally understood the situation and began despising the old man.
Du You let out a sigh, what was he doing getting angry with an unscrupulous man ? "You want to take them back, yes? Let’s not talk about how I feel about it. Even if I agreed, you have to pay the Red Crystal Coins required to terminate the contract and repay the resources I spent cultivating them. Now they are both level 20, 8-star special Professionals. How much are you planning to pay?"
The previously defiant old man was suddenly speechless. He was nowhere near affording such a large sum of Crystal Coins. Even if he could afford them, would he be willing to part with that much?
Both the old man and his elder son were wide-eyed. Level 20 Hunters about to become Colonists, both with an 8-star foundation and special Professionals. Why did they have to be so lucky?
If they could get the girls back to the family, it would be a huge bonus.
The old man immediately said, "You two definitely have Crystal Coins, right? Give them quickly to him and then come home with me. That’s where you belong, not with a stranger."
"This old man is too shameless, he actually said that. Does he have no shame?"
"Haha, I have recorded everything in a video. This old man will definitely become famous!"
