Qin Lun thought for a moment, then squatted down on the ground and grabbed a handful of dust to wipe off his face. He didn’t stop until he was dirty.

Qin Lun carefully avoided the sight of the manor servants and quietly stroked towards the stables. He had already thought of his identity to pretend to be.

…

“Tony, why don’t you go see what happened to Master’s horse?” The butler stopped his work and opened the window to look at the stables. He turned around and instructed one of his male servants.

“Oh, alright.” The young male servant reluctantly walked out of the gate of the manor and towards the loud hissing stables.

There were slaves in Wilson Manor who took care of the cattle and horses, but the plantations were very busy at the moment, and all the men were working in the fields.

The servant named Tony muttered something and dawdled towards the stables.

Slavery had long since disappeared in Europe, and only colonial plantations in North America used black slaves from the Black Triangle trade in large numbers. However, the large families and nobles of this era still had many tenants and servants attached to them.

There were also 369 servants in the noble manor. Tony, as a personal male servant who could serve at the host’s banquet, had a much higher status in the manor than the groom. Naturally, he did not wish to serve the horses while preparing for the banquet.

However, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the stables, he looked inside and immediately forgot about his complaints. He was frightened by the furious horses in the stables that had fallen down and jumped up and down.

“Oh, my god!” Tony was stunned for a while before coming to his senses. He immediately ran to the gate of the horse barn and tried to appease these large animals who were inexplicably mad.

However, the young male servant was not a coachman who was familiar with these horses. A brown Dutch horse raised its head and knocked him on all fours.

“Can I help you?” Just as Tony was in a sorry state, a young man poked his head into the stables.

“Of course, damn it!” Tony got up from the ground in frustration and cursed at the big beast in front of him, “Help me pull it!”

“Haha, this won’t do. This Groningen horse is very intelligent. You need to be gentler if you want to reduce its alertness.” The young man smiled as he put down the burden on his shoulder and walked to the horse barn.

“Hey, what are you doing?” Tony, who had been trying to grab the horse’s head, was suddenly shocked. He saw the young man who had come in bent down and got into the horse fence.

“Don’t worry, I just want to see why it is so irritable … Oh, I know, it was stabbed by a wooden thorn!”

“Alright, alright. Little beauty, don’t be afraid. It won’t hurt anymore …”

‘”Lut ~ ~” The Dutch mare’s entire body suddenly trembled, and its nose snapped loudly. It really slowly calmed down.

“Look, it was this wooden thorn that stabbed its butt that made it so irritable!” The young man emerged from behind the horse’s butt and showed Tony a two-inch long wooden thorn. “It should be a burr on the wooden lining of the horse barn.”

“This is all the fault of those lazy people in the stables. Let Butler Parker teach them a lesson later!” Tony muttered indignantly.

“Alright, the other horses should be affected by it. They will be fine when they calm down.” The young man handed the wooden thorn to Tony and smiled. “However, when the others come back, it would be best for them to boil some hot water and scrub the little beauty’s wound to prevent infection. This Dutch Warm Blood Horse is probably the master’s treasure!”

“Thank you so much. You’re not from the manor, are you? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before!” Tony finally had time to look at the young man in front of him and asked warily.

Colonies on the North American continent had never been a safe place, and colonists from the European continent were often faced with countless difficulties and dangers.

Hateful Indians, thieves, bandits, pirates, vagrants, runaway slaves … Tony had seen many malicious figures near the manor. Even if the young man in front of him looked like a simple and honest person and had helped him just now, he would not relax his guard.

“I’m from Wilmington in the north. There are too many siblings in my family. Father said that I have grown up. Let me find a job. This will lighten the burden on my family!” The young man smiled embarrassedly.

Tony’s heart skipped a beat. As a servant who worked for the planter, he knew what happened to the young man in front of him. Most of the families who came to North America to earn a living were not wealthy. As poor people, there were many half-grown children who were kicked out of their homes at the age of eighteen or sixteen.

If I’m not lucky, then I guess I’m about as lucky as him! Thinking of this, Tony took a closer look at the young man. He wore a tattered coat, rolled up trousers were muddy, and his face and hair were grey. It seemed that he had indeed travelled a long way.

Looking at the little bundle the young man threw on the ground and the honest smile on his face, Tony’s guard instantly dimmed a lot.

“Come, follow me!” Tony tilted his head and signaled to the young man, “There’s still some mashed potatoes left in the kitchen for lunch. You just helped a lot. I don’t think Housekeeper Parker would mind having this.”

“Then … thank you so much!” The young man licked his dry lips and couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

“You haven’t eaten lunch yet today, have you?” Tony glanced at himself and asked amusedly.

“Yes, yes, I haven’t eaten anything since last night.” The young man blushed and lowered his head embarrassedly.

“Oh!” Unexpectedly, Tony did not laugh at him. Instead, he quickened his pace and led the young man to the main building of the manor.

He was lucky enough to run into a sympathetic brat after only taking action once! Qin Lun looked at Tony’s back and raised the corner of his mouth.

This world had just undergone a transformation of magical laws. It belonged to the Low Demon World and suppressed Apostle’s high-level magical abilities greatly.

But even so, the Elves tale of Kieran Elves’s bloodline still had some effect. There was no problem comforting the Dutch horse that had been tampered with. The key was the timing of the attack and how to obtain the trust of the servants who came to the manor to inspect it.

He had been observing the neighborhood for a long time, making sure that the coachmen had gone to work in the fields. At this time, the manor was preparing a dinner party. Older and experienced servants like housekeepers and maids would not have time to visit the stables. At most, they would send a young male servant over.

This meant that it was much easier for Qin Lun to communicate with them. As long as he could win the trust of the servants of the first manor, it would be easier for him to influence others and establish an initial sense of identity with his help.

This is similar to the brainwashing process of later generations of pyramid selling molecules, and is also an application of psychology.

Of course, Qin Lun’s plan was a bit rough compared to his previous plans. However, first, he didn’t have much time to waste, and second, his plan was simple. As long as he tried a few more times, he would surely run into a suitable breakthrough.

“By the way, have you ever raised a horse before?” Tony suddenly remembered something as he walked to the manor gate and asked.

‘Well, my father had a small ranch in Walsall, and then the ranch went bankrupt, and my family immigrated here. I worked at Brown Ranch west of Wilmington, and Mr. Brown found two big black men to replace me, and he thought my pay was too high.’ Qin Lun said with a worried expression, “Actually, I only have one pound and fifteen shillings a month.”

“Not even two pounds?” Tony was shocked. This salary was basically on par with the lowest servants of Wilson Manor.

For a coachman, even food and shelter could be considered low income. Of course, for those slaves who didn’t want money, their wages would be considered high.

“The horses at Brown Ranch are much worse than the horses in your stables. Although they are not food horses, they are not racing horses. They are only for people to pull carts.” Qin Lun shrugged his shoulders and said somewhat helplessly, “This kind of horse is easier to serve. Mr. Brown doesn’t need a coachman like me, does he?”

Qin Lun’s rarely seen resentment did not resonate with Tony, but it dispelled his suspicions.

Taking care of racing and stud horses is indeed different from taking care of cart horses. The first type of fodder only needed to be served by one person, while the second type was more fatiguing, and there was no need to mix the fodder with the fodder in a particularly delicate manner.

The former required professional coachmen and hired herders who were very familiar with horses. As long as someone taught the latter one for a month, even black slaves would be able to make do with it. Tony could understand why the farmer of Brown Ranch didn’t want the young coachman in front of him.

“Walsall? So you’re an Englishman?” Tony rolled his eyes and suddenly slowed down. He leaned over to Qin Lun and whispered, “Actually, our lord has always been dissatisfied with the niggers in the stables. You should be smarter later. Maybe you’ll have a chance to find a job here …”

“I didn’t expect this guy to be a racist!” Qin Lun looked at Tony, who pretended to be fine, and curled his lips mockingly. He pretended to be a coachman just to have a chance to enter the manor openly and did not think of staying long.

In Qin Lun’s opinion, if Sir Wilson had any problems, he would be able to find out the clues tonight. If there was no problem, then he would have to leave early tomorrow morning. After all, there were only four days left for him to stay.

“Tony, why are you here? The kitchen is so busy. Come and help!” Tony brought Qin Lun through the side door of the manor. A fat chef who looked a little old came out of the kitchen and shouted fiercely at the two of them.

“Coming, coming!” ‘”Melanda’s back. She’s the cook of the manor. It seems she can’t get you food now. Follow me first. If Melanda doesn’t object to letting you work, Butler Parker will at least let you have a meal later.” Tony replied in a low voice and said quickly, “Melanda’s back. She’s the cook of the manor. It seems that she can’t get you food now.”

“No problem, I have plenty of strength.” Qin Lun rolled up his sleeves happily.
