??The sky was getting darker, and after a long day of hot sun, I finally had to return to my residence, but the quiet town was still very lively.

??Due to the gradual prosperity of commerce, the trade in the whole of England is extremely prosperous, so His Majesty the King obeyed the people's will and abolished the long-standing night ban, which made the night market in England extremely prosperous.

??Of course, a prosperity is equivalent to the past, and it is still limited to a certain street, but the prosperity of business is still felt by the English.

??For example, in Papa’s Tavern, even though the interior is brightly lit, customers who are accustomed to going to bed early at night still gradually choose to leave.

But there are still many people staying in Papa's Tavern, some drunken alcoholics, and the enthusiastic audience gathered together around a fire pit with burning wood. Completely drive away.

?? "Hi—let me tell you, yesterday, at the port, a large cargo ship came, but what is strange is that there is no cargo on the whole ship. Guess what is on board?"

??A thin man with an obscene figure, a red nose and messy hair, drank a glass of wine happily, licked his lips, and glanced at the longing eyes of the people sitting around him.

??As soon as this strange topic was brought up, it immediately aroused the interest of many customers, all of whom stretched their necks and stared at him eagerly.

?? "Say it quickly!" "Say it quickly, I'm so anxious!"...

??The crowd's urging made him feel more at ease.

?? "At first, I was also full of doubts. I stretched my head and looked up vigorously. After waiting for a long time, I was sure that there was no cargo on the deck. The doubts in my heart became stronger!"

??He raised his chin, and looked at annoyingly arrogantly.

?? "Think about it! Such a big ship, without any cargo, is going to die at a loss? Only a fool would do such a loss-making business!"

?? As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of echoing from the side.

?? "Yes! How can there be such a fool, I guess he would have died long ago!"

?? "It must be an important cargo, very important, and I don't want us to see it."

?? "It can't be a ship of gold! It must be sent."

??...

??The sound of discussion made the atmosphere of the entire tavern even more lively. People were discussing with each other endlessly, and everyone's curiosity about this strange thing was immediately ignited.

?? After the tavern gradually quieted down, the thin man sitting in the middle took a long sip of the cloudy drink in his hand and continued talking.

?? "I was also curious. I haven't seen such a thing for a long time, so I stood there with my head stretched out. When it was almost dark, the cargo ship finally made a noise—"

?? Speaking of this, the thin man suddenly stopped talking, making the audience around him so angry that they wanted to curse.

??"When it was almost dark, the cargo ship finally made a commotion. A sailor in canvas came out, looked around for a while, and seemed to notice that there were not many people in the port, and then made a movement

At this time, a group of figures slowly came out of the cabin, naked without a single piece of clothing on their bodies, but the strange thing is that I couldn't see the specific appearance of their faces, it was pitch black, and the whole body was pitch black one slice! "

?? When it came to the word "black lacquer", the man emphasized it twice, and he continued after everyone showed surprise in their eyes.

?? "If I didn't find out that they have a pair of shockingly white teeth, I really thought they were wood!"

?? As he spoke, he couldn't help sighing, with a deeply moved expression on his face.

?? "There are still people who are black all over and don't have autumn, don't go back to the devil of hell!"

?? A fat man said in surprise, with a hint of fear on his face.

?? "How is it possible, if it is the devil, the angel would have come out long ago, this is impossible!"

?? A guy with a little knowledge immediately began to refute and criticize righteously.

?? "Finally, I asked the owner of the ship and realized that it was captured from the desert continent below Portugal!"

??The tall and thin man put on a face of disdain for everyone's guessing. After feeling that everyone ignored him, he said loudly.

?? "This group of people with black bodies and sparse hair all come from that continent. It is said that this group of people only spent some of their iron to get it!"

?? "I reckon that there must be at least a hundred of them, all strong and strong, but good slaves, and the group of sailors directly called them black slaves!"

?? "Sir, did anyone buy those black slaves? Are there still any?"

??A chubby man below asked eagerly with his face moving.

"Hey! Dude, you are late. This group of people just came out, and they were sold out in less than an hour. I think they are probably already booked. If you want it, there is no chance! "

??The tall and thin man smiled, spread his hands, and said helplessly.

?? "Oh! That group of people are so strong, they must be quick to work, and they can save me a lot of money!"

?? The fat man muttered, and the disappointment on his face was palpable.

??He is a flour seller, and he ships out hundreds of bags of flour every day. There is an urgent shortage of freight workers. Of course, it is definitely not because he pays less money, but because the workers are too greedy.

??You must know that in the past few years, with the unimpeded trade routes in Spain and the Mediterranean, various goods in England have begun to flow abroad, and this huge demand has made the factories of the entire England make a lot of money in an instant.

??At this time, England had a rare labor shortage.

??Yes, yes, most of the three million people are underage children, and most of the remaining population are bound to the land.

??The refugees were swept away, and they couldn't force the farmers to leave the land and go into the factory.

?? After all, working in a factory is not as good as farming, because farming is not life-threatening after all.

??So, when the restless businessmen found that they didn't have enough workers in their hands, their vigorous desire made them have to rack their brains.

??First of all, the merchants spent a lot of money to buy the dignitaries in London, advised His Majesty the King, and let go of the decree prohibiting land enclosure.

?? And the nobles are also pushing the boat, so that they can benefit themselves, they are very happy.

??However, His Majesty the King was steadfast in his determination not to let go of the land enclosure ban. In the face of repeated requests from the dignitaries, His Majesty the King was determined not to waver.

?? Seeing that His Majesty's mind could not be changed, the businessman immediately turned his mind abroad. Refugees from Germany and serfs from Eastern Europe came to England wave after wave.

?? At this time, rich black resources were finally discovered.
