The carriage looked like it was made in the prairie, it was full of Beastman characteristics. The carriage was also very big, it wasn't much smaller than Zhao Hai's Patriarch's carriage.
The carriage quickly arrived in front of Zhao Hai and the others. The driver stopped the carriage and then jumped down. When he jumped down, Zhao Hai was startled. This was because the person was very tall, he was about 2.5 meters tall. His muscles weren't much worse than a Beastman's.
The person wore a leather robe and looked very ugly. Moreover, his skin was very black, he looked like a black person from Earth. If his face had some hair, people would even believe that he was an Ape Beastman.
The person arrived in front of Zhao Hai and bowed to Laura, then he excitedly said, "Young Lady, you've come. Ah Tai has been waiting for you for a long time."
Zhao Hai, Megan, and the others understood that this person was Ah Tai, Laura's steward in the Prairie. Looking at the person's appearance, Zhao Hai and the others couldn't help but have a strange expression. This Ah Tai couldn't have been sent to the Prairie by Laura because of his appearance, right?
Laura smiled and nodded, "Ah Tai, I haven't seen you for a few years. You seem to have grown darker. Come, greet my husband, Zhao Hai."
Ah Tai turned his head to Zhao Hai and gave a salute, "This one has seen Son-in-law!" Zhao Hai wasn't used to this address, but he still smiled and said, "Alright, you can dispense with the formalities. You've worked hard these past few years. Right, you can call me Young Master from now on."
Ah Tai looked up and gave a simple and honest smile, "It's Young Master, it wasn't hard at all. There's food and drink here every day, it's very good."
Zhao looked at Ah Tai in surprise. He didn't think that the steward Laura left in the prairie would turn out to be this ugly guy. She wasn't afraid that this guy would make a loss if he sold her things.
Then Laura introduced Ah Tai to Megan and the others. While Ah Tai gave his greetings to Megan and the others, Zhao Hai also paid attention to the surroundings. When the merchants saw Ah Tai, they seemed to recognize him and pointed at him.
Zhao Hai focused his hearing to eavesdrop on what those people were saying. He heard a merchant say to someone beside him, "Look, isn't that the silly Ah Tai? Why did he run out of the city? "
Another person replied, "Who knows, but looking at his respectful appearance, the one who came must be his superior. I heard that this guy is from the Buda Clan. And looking at that undead, could it be the Buda Clan's Patriarch, Zhao Hai?"
The person who spoke before said, "It's possible. If it really is Zhao Hai, then Ah Tai would be out of luck. Now that food is expensive, he actually sold it at a fair price. I'm afraid that this fool will be out of luck this time."
Another person said, "Lower your voice, I heard that Zhao Hai's family isn't simple. They are famous for being ruthless and merciless. If they hear us speak ill of Ah Tai, then we'll be out of luck."
The person who spoke before snorted and said, "What are you afraid of? This is Beast God City, no one is allowed to use force within a thousand li radius. If he dares to make a move, then the Beastmen wouldn't let him off." Although he said this, his voice was a lot quieter.
The other person said, "Don't say it, even if he doesn't dare to trouble us in Beast God City, wouldn't it be the same when he goes out? This is the Beastman Prairie, if he kills us, then our families might think that it was done by the Beastmen. "Then the two people didn't say anything else.
Zhao Hai also understood what was going on, he turned his head and looked at the ugly man who was talking to Laura. If Ah Tai was like those merchants who didn't sell their food at a fair price, then Zhao Hai would be very disappointed. But now, he wasn't disappointed at all.
At this time, Ah Tai had already greeted Laura and the others. He immediately called Zhao Hai and the others to get on the carriage. Zhao Hai and the others didn't have a coach, so Ah Tai personally drove the carriage towards Beast God City.
After getting on the carriage, Zhao Hai looked at Laura and asked, "Didn't you say that people aren't allowed to camp outside Beast God City? How come there are so many people here? "
Laura smiled and said, "It used to be like that, but now that more and more Humans are coming to Beast God City to trade, the Beastmen allowed them to open shops outside the city. Ah Tai originally had a place outside the city, but the Markey Dell Clan had a place inside the city. After I took over the Markey Dell Clan, they moved their business inside the city." Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That's the case.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "What's the difference between inside and outside the city?"
Laura smiled and said, "Actually, there isn't much difference. There aren't any houses inside the city, most people live in tents. The only difference is that the ground inside the city is paved with Beast Blood Soil. Moreover, the clans inside the city are the most powerful clans in the continent. Outside the city, the clans are comparatively weaker." Zhao Hai nodded. At this time, the carriage had already entered the city.
Zhao Hai looked at Beast God City through the carriage's window. The inside of Beast God City was really different from the outside. Inside the city, there were several houses made of Beast Blood Soil. However, these houses had a large number of Beastmen guarding their doors. It seems like these places were very important, it was impossible for people to live in them. As for the other places, there were also large tents, but these tents were relatively close to each other. Moreover, they were arranged in an orderly manner, just like houses.
The curtains of these tents had words written on them. Some of them were the names of shops, some of them were business items. However, it seems like the businesses here were all the same, there wasn't anything special about them.
Before long, the carriage stopped in front of a tent. It was a very big tent, and the curtains of the tent had the words "Magic Lily Shop" written on them.
When Zhao Hai saw these words, he couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth. This Magic Lily Shop was the Markey Dell Family's signature shop. However, Zhao Hai was thinking about the shop that Laura established herself.
Outside the tent, there were two people. These two people didn't look very big, but they looked very strong. Their faces looked a bit like Ah Tai's.
Ah Tai jumped down from the carriage and said to one of them, "Big, go and unload the carriage. Second, go and prepare some food and drinks. The Young Lady and the Young Master have arrived." The two people complied and then turned around and ran. They didn't even greet Laura and Zhao Hai.
Ah Tai seemed to be embarrassed as he scolded, "These two have no manners." Then he turned his head to Laura and Zhao Hai and said, "I'm sorry, Young Lady, Young Master. These two have no manners, they made you laugh."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just a small matter." Ah Tai felt relieved as he invited Zhao Hai and the others to enter the tent.
Upon entering the tent, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. This was because the furnishings inside the tent were similar to Laura's Magic Lily Shop. However, there weren't many things inside, there was only some fruit oil, the other places were almost empty.
Ah Tai was embarrassed as he said to Laura, "Young Lady, I'm sorry, the grains and vegetables have been sold out."
Laura smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, you can also take a rest. Let's go to your place and have a look. I remember Sister-in-law's barbecue is very fragrant."
Ah Tai chuckled and said, "It's rare for Miss to remember. Ever since Miss and Young Master arrived today, that woman has been busy. I think she's almost done with her preparations. Miss, Young Master, please." Then he led them out of the tent through a door.
Outside the door was a large courtyard. There were also several tents in the courtyard. Ah Tai's two sons were unloading the carriages in the courtyard.
Ah Tai led Laura and the others to the tent in the middle. Just as they arrived in front of the tent, the tent's curtain was opened as a tall woman came out of the tent.
The woman looked to be about 40 years old and was wearing a leather robe. Although she wasn't young and had some wrinkles on her face, she was still quite charming. One could see that she was a beauty when she was young.
When the woman saw Laura, she was very excited. She immediately went to Laura and carefully sized her up. Then she said, "Young Lady, you've grown up and become more and more beautiful. Time really flies. In a blink of an eye, Young Lady is already married. It's a pity that I wasn't able to participate."
Laura smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, how have you been these years? Did Uncle Ah Tai bully you? "
Sister-in-law looked at Ah Tai and snorted, "He dares. Young Lady, please come in and have a seat. I've prepared a lot of delicious food." Then Sister-in-law turned her gaze to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai could see that her gaze had a hint of scrutiny.
Zhao Hai also discovered that Sister-in-law's relationship with Laura wasn't ordinary. When she talked to Laura, she wasn't polite. When Laura talked to her, she was respectful.
At this time, Ah Tai's sister-in-law also came over and gave Zhao Hai a salute, "This is the Son-in-law. Pearl has seen the Son-in-law. The Son-in-law can call me Ah Tai's sister-in-law.
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly, it seems like Son-in-law was the norm here. But he still said, "Thank you, Sister-in-law. Please call me Young Master or Zhao Hai."
Sister-in-law smiled and said, "How can I call you by your name? I'll just call you Young Master." Then she led Zhao Hai and the others into the tent.
The inside of the tent was similar to an ordinary Beastman Clan's tent. However, the things inside were common to Humans and not to Beastmen.
In the middle of the tent was a Magic Stove. Next to it were several plates of cut meat. There were also some dishes that were steaming.
After Ah Tai's sister-in-law gave her greetings to Megan and the others, she immediately invited Zhao Hai and the others to sit on the carpet. Then she gave Zhao Hai and the others some tea before she turned to Laura and said, "Young Lady, please take a seat first. I still have two more dishes to prepare. Once I'm done, we can eat." Laura nodded, then Ah Tai's sister-in-law went to work while Ah Tai helped from the side.
Zhao Hai took a sip of tea before he turned to Laura and said, "Laura, are you familiar with Sister-in-law?"
Laura smiled and said, "I'm not only familiar with Sister-in-law, I'm also familiar with Ah Tai. Ah Tai was my mother's guard while Sister-in-law was my mother's maid. They watched me grow up."
