MTL - Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner-Chapter 33 Gladiator
On this day, Maxi suddenly came to Tangning's house with a black slave who seemed to be very tough. This surprised Tangning, because Maxie never brought slaves out. Why did he suddenly change his temper today?
Perhaps seeing Tangning's doubts, Maxi took the initiative to say, "Tony, do you remember when I took Perry from you last time, I said that I would bring you back two beauties from London as compensation? "
"Of course you remember, I thought you forgot!" Tangning teased.
Maxi pretended to be unhappy and replied, "How could I forget what I promised you?"
But then the conversation changed and he said: "But to my surprise, there is no place to buy slave girls in London, so I plan to pay Rex to you!" With that, Maxi patted the black slave beside him on the shoulder. .
"I'm not interested in men!" Tangning shrugged.
"Who said you're interested in men? Rex is the most powerful fighter I've bought recently. Isn't the underground arena about to open soon? Now a boxer like Rex is more expensive than a half-race slave girl. There are more, so you will definitely not suffer!" Maxi explained.
The "underground gladiatorial arena" mentioned by Maxi is a "sports" that many slave owners like, or simply gambling. The rules and functions are similar to those of the arena in ancient Rome. Things have always been loved by rich people.
Moreover, it is beyond everyone's imagination that the black slaves who are gladiators also like it. Although it is life-threatening to be a gladiator, the living conditions are usually very good, and there is no need to participate in labor. After all, they can earn money for their masters with one victory. For less money, many other black slaves who are gladiators themselves were warriors in the tribe before they came. For them, the arena is also a battlefield, and this is where they should appear.
To be honest, Tangning wasn't too interested in this kind of thing, but since Maxie had already brought it, she couldn't refuse, otherwise, it seemed like she wasn't satisfied with the "returning gift" from her friend, so she nodded and accepted it.
Then he asked curiously, "By the way, can Danina accept those female slaves you raised?"
Maxie shook his head and replied, "She can't accept it, but she hinted to me that as long as these female slaves are kept elsewhere so that she can't see them, she can pretend not to know!"
"If you say that, then Perry should be doing pretty well now!" Tangning said casually.
But he didn't expect Maxie to say unexpectedly: "I don't know how Perry is doing now, because I gave her to Custer before I went to London!"
Although Tangning was speechless about this answer, she knew that this was a normal thing among slave owners. Just like when he gave Perry to Maxi, Maxi can naturally give Perry to other people.. ....
After seeing Maxie off, Downing planned to visit Nicole, but on the way he was surprised to see Morgan, and it was obvious that he came from Jonathan's manor.
Morgan was also a little embarrassed about this, and he reluctantly greeted him, "Hey, Tony, what a coincidence!"
"Yeah, what a coincidence, John, why didn't you send me a telegram in advance when you came to New Orleans, so that I can pick you up!" Tangning "murmured".
Morgan explained, "Jonathan was in a hurry to find me, so I came to him as soon as I came. I was thinking of finding you tonight, but I didn't expect to meet him here!"
Then he changed the subject and asked, "Tony, are you going out to work?"
Tangning could hear that Morgan was embarrassed and wanted to end the conversation, so she echoed, "Well, I'm going to Murphy Manor!"
Morgan took advantage of the situation and said, "That's right, I'm going to see if I can buy cheap coffee like last time, then we'll see you tonight!"
Downing knew that what Morgan said last time was that his first pot of gold came from the cheap Brazilian coffee he bought in New Orleans, but he also knew that Morgan was an excuse, so he followed his words and agreed.
Looking at Morgan's awkward back, Tangning complained in her heart, I can't see that you, Morgan, also like this tune. It seems that Jonathan's manor has been very successful, attracting a lot of wealthy people from the north. (I really don't dare to write about Jonathan's manor, otherwise it will definitely be sealed, but it does exist in reality, even a few years ago...)
But this time, Tangning really wanted to go to Nicole to discuss something serious. As soon as they met, he asked Nicole seriously, "Nicole, are you really going to open a manor in Brazil?"
I saw Nicole nodded and replied: "Yes, since you told me that there will be a war between the north and the south sooner or later, I have been investigating for a long time, and I think what you said is very reasonable, so I plan to keep it for myself as you did. A retreat, but I still like this kind of plantation life, so I chose Brazil as the retreat~www.novelbuddy.com~ Of course, this does not mean that I have to give up New Orleans, just open another manor in Brazil Well, if there is a war, I'll go to Brazil; if it doesn't, I'll just open another plantation, because there's no room to open a manor in New Orleans."
Hearing Nicole say this, Tangning breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's the case, I thought you were going to Brazil, and I won't be able to see you in the future!"
And Nicole said disapprovingly: "After you and Scarlett get married, it is estimated that even if I don't leave, you won't always come to see me!"
"Don't worry, I don't think Scarlett will be that kind of stingy woman!" Tangning comforted.
"I believe that she should be generous to your female slaves, but not necessarily to me!" Nicole retorted.
Although Tangning admitted in her heart that Nicole was right, she still argued on the surface, "As long as she knows that you don't want to marry me at all, she won't be worried!"
Then he changed the topic and said, "By the way, who are you going to send to the plantation in Brazil? After all, you can't be there permanently!"
"Captain Jody, I'll go over and take charge of the harvesting myself!" Having said that, Nicole posted it over, kissed Tangning, and said softly, "As for this, I'll leave it to you!"
"Then, don't I have to be in charge of picking the five manors at the same time?" Tangning said with a frown.
"Why, do you think it's hard? Then I'll pay you now, okay?" After speaking, Nicole stretched out her hand and grabbed Tangning's tie, and gently brought them both to the bed...
PS: The past few days are really busy. Not only is the work unit facing an audit by the Disciplinary Committee, but there are also a lot of things at home, so these two days are one shift, and I will try to resume two shifts tomorrow.
