Doomsday Code

Chapter 84 Going Home

When Chen Cheng heard that the slave trader had returned, he felt a murderous intent in his heart.

He could never forget the scene of the old and weak in the mountain tribe being beheaded by those beasts. In his opinion, it was not excessive to kill all these guys.

At the same time, Chen Cheng thought of the slavery that still existed in this world.

To be honest, Chen Cheng only felt sad.

If it weren't for the huge profits from the slave trade, why would a guy like Scorpion go deep into the dangerous mountains and forests to hunt and kill those wild people?

There would be no killing without buying and selling, and the root of the problem lies in the slavery system that exists in this world.

However, he was powerless to do anything about it. He could only rely on his own power to influence Huidun beside him and let him know that the savages were no different from them. They all had two eyes, one nose, and one mouth, and they were of the same race with the same skin color.

At the same time, Chen Cheng also knew that if he wanted to abolish slavery, social productivity must be vigorously developed.

When the value of a slave is less than the profit brought by a set of industrial equipment, and when industry requires a large number of workers, perhaps slavery will disappear.

And now he is working towards this direction, he wants to bring the monster of industry into this world.

What followed was the liberation of educational knowledge and the liberation of thought.

As for the price to be paid, Chen Cheng can only rely on the panacea of this world - magic. Perhaps he can reduce the price to the lowest.

Sometimes he thought in his heart about the changes that would take place in the world after the introduction of industry. Perhaps then the war in the world would escalate, and the conflict of ideas would lead to the outbreak of a world-class war.

When he thought of this, his whole body trembled. Perhaps at that time, he would open the cage that imprisoned the giant beast, but he did not have the ability to control the beast.

Sitting in the carriage, Chen Cheng's heart changed from murderous intent to fear of himself. Sometimes he really felt like a devil.

However, Chen Cheng didn't know that at this time he had already fallen into his own mental consumption, and the inner demon in his heart was also quietly growing.

Finier, who was sitting next to Chen Cheng, was a magic genius with extraordinary mental power. She could clearly sense the murderous intent that Chen Cheng had just revealed.

Just when Chen Cheng was about to become violent, a soft little hand held his hand, and then he heard Finier's soft voice.

"Calm down. Since that guy is here, he definitely can't run away."

Chen Cheng turned his head and glanced at Finier, then the violent anger in his heart was suppressed. He was no longer the same person as before. Now he had the confidence to destroy Scorpion's slave-hunting team.

He carefully buried his fear deep in his heart because he didn't want Finelle to worry about him.

The carriage was driving on the official road and before we knew it, we were approaching the small town of Kekeber.

The town of Kekeber at this time is very different from before. The wine-making recipe given by Chen Cheng before has brought huge profits to the Stowe family.

Of course, there is also fruit wine among the alcoholic beverages, and he left this entirely to Baron Keckber.

After all, in the previous plan, the profits from the liquor item ostensibly belonged to Kekeber, but in fact they still belonged to Huidun, but Kekeber was just a manager.

However, Earl Huidun thought more and wanted Burke to bear more responsibility, so he simply did not accept the benefit.

The method of brewing fruit wine was the compensation that Chen Cheng had prepared to give to Baron Kekeber.

Today, many new wineries have been built in the town of Kekeber, some of which are not yet completed. There is a constant stream of construction workers and wine-ordering merchants throughout the town.

The coming and going of merchants has led to a significant increase in the flow of people into the town of Kekeber. Many townspeople have taken this opportunity to convert the spare rooms in their homes into B&Bs, which has also brought them a lot of extra income.

This kind of homestay was given to Baron Kekeber by Chen Cheng along with the fruit wine recipe at Earl Huidun's Palace.

At that time, the Baron was under time pressure and had heavy tasks to accomplish. He needed to coordinate with the Sto family, so he had no time to go to the academy to see Finier. He just asked Chen Cheng to take good care of Finier.

Fruit wine and white wine do not conflict with each other, and their sales targets are also different. Although the audience of fruit wine is not as wide as that of white wine, it is one of the best drinks for celebrities and ladies at family gatherings.

Therefore, the Stowe family also understands business, and they directly joined Baron Keckber's fruit wine business to make money together.

Listening to the noisy sounds of pedestrians and looking at the busy crowds outside, this was the first time since Finier grew up that she saw so many people coming to her own territory.

Chen Cheng, who was watching all this, couldn't help but sigh at the role of commerce in promoting population mobility, which directly turned an unknown border town into a bustling town.

The carriage passed through the town and arrived at the gate of the Baron's house, and Finier couldn't wait to jump off the carriage. She hadn't seen her father for a long time.

At this time, in front of the Baron's Mansion, Jenny and Sophia, the personal maids who had been with Finier before, saw Finier jump out of the car. The two girls ran up with red eyes and said in a tearful tone:

"Miss, you are back. Miss, you didn't take us to the academy. We thought you didn't want us."

Seeing the sad look on the maid who had been taking care of her, Finniel hugged them and comforted them:

"Jenny Sofia, I didn't abandon you. I was just going to the academy. And did you receive the perfume I had someone send back to you?"

Jenny and Sophia were very happy to see that Finier was still close to them, and then they waved their sleeves and said:

"Miss, didn't you smell it? Sofia and I deliberately sprayed perfume on our bodies today."

"Yes, miss, you don't know that the perfume you sent back to us has made others envious. This is something that even the noble ladies have never enjoyed."

Sophia said excitedly.

After Finier learned about perfume, she thought of the two little maids who had been taking care of her at home, so she asked Chen Cheng to help her make a few bottles of perfume for the two little maids.

Chen Cheng also thought that the two little maids in Kekeber's house did not discriminate against him like the other servants did, so he agreed very readily.

"Oh, Sophia, how do you know that this is something that those noble ladies have never enjoyed?"

Finelle asked as she led the two into the mansion.

Sophia's answer was straightforward.

"That's what the master told us, and from then on we dared not spray perfume while working, it was really too expensive."

"Oh, it's nothing. You two have taken care of me since I was a child. You can use this perfume however you want. If it's not enough, I'll ask Brown to mix it for you two. But there's one thing: you can't give it away or sell it."

Finier simply waved her hand.

The two expressed their gratitude to Finier and looked at Chen Cheng behind them. Looking at his already handsome face and then thinking of his intelligence, the two maids suddenly felt something unspeakable in their hearts.

"Thank you for the perfume, Brown."

Jenny and Sophia said shyly.

When Finier looked at the two of them, she knew that her two maids were in love. Chen Cheng was about the same age as them, and he was very handsome. He also made many inventions. It could be said that any girl would not be moved by him.

As Finier thought about it, her thoughts became a little distorted, but in the end, her strong willpower brought her back on track.

Then he coughed at the two maids and said:

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Why didn't I see my father? Today is my first day back home from vacation. Why isn't he at home?"

At this time, the infatuated Jenny and the other girl came to their senses. They had just walked through the entire Baron's Mansion without realizing it. When they heard Finier's question, Jenny replied:

"Well, the Baron went to the countryside early this morning to organize the villagers to pick fruit.

In the past, we mainly produced fruit products, but we didn’t make much money because we had no sales channels.

Now with the fruit wine technology that Brown gave us, these fruits now have a good channel, and it also provides an additional source of income for the people in the territory."

As she spoke, Jenny secretly glanced at Chen Cheng.

Talking about these, Chen Cheng couldn't help but ask:

"Then I think the fruits in this territory should not be enough to make wine. I wonder where the rest of the fruits come from?"

Sophia shook her head and said:

"These are not things we as maids should know. Perhaps we can ask the old butler when he comes back."

Chen Cheng nodded. At the same time, he did not expect that Baron Kekeber would make such a big fuss. Looking at the scale of the newly built winery outside, the monthly output of fruit wine was also an astronomical figure.

If it was the Sto family and Earl Huidun, then he wouldn't have to worry about anything. After all, these two families were well-known, and Burke Keke was just a small baron. Moreover, this was his own family affair, so Chen Cheng would naturally pay more attention to it.

He knew very well that the most important thing in winemaking was to have a stable supply of raw materials, especially the fruits needed to make fruit wine. The output value and stable supply of these fruits were much more difficult to obtain than those of sorghum, barley, and wheat used in liquor.

"Well, since father is not at home, then little slave, follow me for a walk on the street. I saw so many people just now that I didn't recognize that this was the town of Kekeber at first."

At this time, Chen Cheng spent a gold coin to ask the guards to help him move his things into his small stone house. These experimental equipment were all made by him with great difficulty.

Finier saw Chen Cheng asking the guards to place his experimental equipment, and then wanted to say forget it, but Chen Cheng spoke first:

"Well, that's good, Miss. The master is building a new winery right now, so I can go and take a look."

The two guards who were bribed with gold coins showed disdain. If Chen Cheng had not given too much and his reputation had not been known, these two guards would never have come to help him.

And now they heard that Chen Cheng wanted to give instructions on the newly built winery, and their contempt for slaves arose again. Even though the winemaking method was invented by Chen Cheng, they still held this prejudice.

This is the difference in cognition between people.

In the eyes of both of them, what mattered was Chen Cheng's identity, and Chen Cheng was a slave, so no matter how talented or rich he was, they still discriminated against him.
