Chapter 153 The Good Man Dolly
“Are you still troubled by the inability to communicate normally with your employer?
Are you still angry about being blocked from the door of knowledge?
Are you still feeling depressed about not being respected?
Are you still depressed because you cannot change the current situation?
Do you often complain about the unfairness of fate?
You are humble and insignificant, destined to make a living by force since birth. You are unable to protect even your younger siblings and offspring. You can only watch them follow in your footsteps and eventually be forgotten by the sands. This is your fate.
But now! The omnipotent merchant Dolly is here to change your life! She clearly puts a price on your ideals and future. As long as you invest a little bit in your dreams, you can take control of the fate of yourself, your family, and even the entire tribe! "
The mercenaries sitting in the tavern listened quietly. They didn't think that what this wealthy lord said would have any impact on them.
But because this woman, half the height of most of them, gave them a foothold, no one said anything offensive or booed when she spoke.
Even the previous sounds of laughter, quarrels, and clinking of glasses disappeared briefly. Dolly's not-so-loud voice echoed in the closed tavern, and everyone could hear her words clearly.
By the time Dolly finished speaking, there was already an uproar.
However, most people think that this Dolly master is really exaggerating. Change fate? How to change it? Fight together in the House of the Order and let the desert people become the real rulers of this country? Or does this rich master want to sponsor a few desert children on a whim?
If she really wanted to do this, she would have taken out her savings and distributed them to everyone present. They even thought that if the tavern under her command could provide free drinks, it would be the master's kindness.
But they only thought so. Because they were in her tavern and under her protection, they did not say these words out loud. They knew that outside of Master Dolly's tavern, they would find it difficult to find a place where they could drink and chat without being looked down upon.
Although some people did not believe it, they had some expectations in their hearts. They also thought that Master Dolly was exaggerating, but with the manager of the Zubair Theater in front of them, they couldn't help but think that perhaps the master had also discovered some advantages of the desert people and was willing to hire them.
Perhaps Master Dolly's exotic tavern was short of dancers or musicians.
Several mercenaries from Carinite thought so.
The tribes in the desert are not large, with a population of only a dozen or twenty people able to establish a tribe. The size of the Karenite tribe is considered medium in the desert, and in this tribe of more than forty people, news always spreads very quickly.
Before coming here, these mercenaries had heard that four members of their tribe had gone to the rainforest as mercenaries, but they were soon spotted by the kind-hearted owner of a tavern and stayed in the tavern to perform singing and dancing. At that time, they couldn't even speak the Sumeru common language!
Several mercenaries had encountered them occasionally this year, and their mental outlook had completely changed. Several pioneers were obviously elders in the tribe, but they looked younger than them.
Their companions' real experiences made them envious. When they were working as mercenaries, they often prayed that there would be more kind-hearted people in the rainforest and that similar good luck would befall them.
There were many people in the tavern who had this idea. At this moment, they all secretly prayed in their hearts, hoping that Master Dolly would choose a few of them to take away.
But a few people thought that this was just a trick of the businessman, or that the master was making fun of them, but they only dared to mutter a few words in their hearts.
Only a few people believed in Dolly's words so much that they were excited.
"Master Dolly, what are you going to sell to us? Can the things you sell really change our destiny? In what way will they change our destiny?"
This loud question came from Hisham, a member of the Blazing Beast Hunters. Harun beside him also whispered in agreement after he shouted.
Everyone in the tavern, believers, disbelievers, or those who were half-believing and half-doubting, stopped all their movements and waited nervously for Dolly's answer. They actually hoped from the bottom of their hearts that everything Dolly said was true.
When someone asked, Dolly didn't intend to keep people in suspense. She said in a calm tone: "What I want to sell is something that is as scarce as water and food to you.
——Books, books that can teach you to read and write! With them, you and your descendants can learn the common language of Xumi and master the grammatical structure. You will be able to read most other books in the rainforest area.
A few who are particularly hardworking and talented can even come up with a plan to cope with the entrance examination of the Ordination College.
Being able to enter the House of Religious Orders means that you finally have the opportunity to come into contact with the power organ of this country. You can move up step by step by studying academics and publishing papers.
At this point, Diliyeshi, Tuosita, Upandha... secretaries, sages, great sages, these positions that you never dared to think about before, are already in a position where you can see them when you look up!
The opportunity for change you want is here! Spreading your suffering among the people in the rainforest, making them sympathize with you and give you some kindness, will not fundamentally improve your situation.
As long as there are no desert people among the top leaders of the Order, you will never be treated fairly! Do you know Setare? The current assistant of the Sage, she has reached this point today by studying.
She stood beside the great sage like a conspicuous banner. Without saying too much, she could announce to everyone that desert people also have the ability to become scholars. "
At this point, all the mercenaries turned to Dolly, their expressions were either serious, generous, or full of expectation, and some even quietly moved their stools forward a few steps.
"Master Dolly, can those books really help us learn the common language of Sumeru?" Hisham was still the first to raise the question.
The question he asked was also what the other mercenaries wanted to know. Most of them had never had the opportunity to come into contact with paper books before. It should be said that they had never even touched them.
Although Dolly's words made them excited and they wished the books would fly into their hands immediately so that they could start studying immediately, they also fell into deep self-doubt.
Study? Enter the College of Religious Affairs? Become a sage? Me?
is it possible?
"Absolutely true!" Dolly's expression was particularly sincere. "The author of these books is a candidate for the next sage. The accuracy and authenticity of the content are guaranteed. He divided the difficulty of the books into four levels. You can start with the simplest one and proceed step by step until you have mastered the language thoroughly.
I am an honest businessman. I am standing here today to sell hope, so I will be frank with you. This book is a good book, but learning it is difficult. How much you can master depends entirely on your efforts and understanding.
