Chapter 175 [Strange Slave]

After a while, Sandy accompanied Du Wei around the square a few times, and finally, under the strong recommendation, Sandy squeezed Du Wei into the high platform at the northwest corner.

"This is the slave farm with the best business here. " Sandy was small, struggling to tiptoe in the crowd, struggling to talk to Du Wei. Although Du Wei is not very old, his pedigree of the martial arts family of the Luo Lin family makes him thin, but his stature is not low.

"This company has the best business, and the boss behind it is also the strongest. They can always get the most and the best slaves, and you see, their table is also very good. "

"What's the difference?" Du Wei asked curiously.

"Of course it's different!" Sandy tried hard to explain: "Their table is right here, most of the day is just facing the sun, the light is the best, when people are watching and picking below, the sun directly shines on the table. Those slaves can be seen most clearly, and because of the sun, all the slaves seem to be much more energetic, even if they are pale and thin! Here, there are rules for who occupies what territory.  You Look at this house, it is at the entrance of the square, everyone who comes in to buy slaves will be the first to see their house.  Although the house on the opposite side is also very big, it is in the opposite direction, always on the dark side of the sun, And it’s always when people are going out that they see them... You think, people are all done shopping and ready to go out.  Business is naturally a little bit worse. ”

At this time, on this rather large high platform, a guy dressed in colorful clothes like a clown was yelling something loudly. Although this guy was thin and strangely dressed, his voice was really not small. Take the whip. A group of slaves stood on the platform behind them, all of them with pale faces. Dozens of people are tied with only one rope, obviously they are all "cooked slaves".

"My lords, please take a look! These are useful guys! Look at this head, look at this muscle! Buy them back and use them as coolies, as long as you give them a little food, they can work like rancid animals Live! And everyone is a strong laborer, able to do basic farm work!! They are less courageous than rabbits.  Stronger than cows! Buying such slaves back, one slave is worth three people!"

As he said that, the clown-like guy ran to a male slave beside him. The male slave was tall and had a big frame. Although he had lost some weight, he still looked very strong.  Facing this slave who was two heads taller than himself, the clown patted him like he was treating an animal. He thought about it, and pulled his lips away: "Look! There's nothing wrong with it! Look at his teeth! Look at his eyes! Three silver coins! Three silver coins can get a decent and honest slave." , to do the dirtiest and bitterest work for you! They can eat anything, you only need to throw a little porridge made from wheat husks every day to feed them!"

Du Wei discussed with Ruolin. The workshop at the back of their shop really needs some manpower, and they are about to ask Ruolin to ask for a price. Sandy quietly pulled Du Wei's sleeve, and silently said a word:

"hold on. "

These dozen or so slaves were quickly bought by several merchants from other places. While paying the money, those people sent people to the back to lead them.

Du Wei glanced at Sandy suspiciously, Sandy quietly hid behind Du Wei, lowered his voice and said: "These ones just now are not good! The one standing at the front is good, but didn't you pay attention? The two of them seem to be unable to stand upright, and the other one's shoulders are a little tilted to the left when standing. I'm sure. That guy must have a problem with his legs and feet. Wait a little longer, there must be better ones behind Stuff. ”

really. The second batch that came up next was indeed much stronger than the previous batch.

Sandy didn't dare to tell Du Wei anything openly, because he was still hanging out on this street. If those slave traders saw him, he would get into trouble. Every time he just hid behind Du Wei and spoke in a low voice. . Finally, when the fourth group of people came out, Sandy watched for a while, then whispered: "It's ok. "

The fourth batch of slaves are all dark-skinned Nanyang natives, and each of these guys is strong and strong. However, to Du Wei's surprise, among the ten slaves on the stage, three were old guys who were almost skinny. Although some of them are very strong, the three old guys are absolutely incapable of doing much work. .

Such a group of slaves stood up, and the people below were a little unwilling to pay the price after seeing it. Although strong slaves are nice, those old guys...does it waste food to buy them back?

Du Wei glanced at Sandy, Sandy sighed, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, listen to me right, you just buy this batch." These Nanyang natives are very strong, and those young and strong cadres work, one can replace two other slaves! Especially these three old ones, although they seem to be unable to do any work, their role is beyond your imagination!"

"What?"

"I heard that these Nanyang natives especially respect the elderly. In those tribes in Nanyang, such old people are often of very high status. They may even be elders or patriarchs! All other young people You have to listen to the orders of these old guys, and you have to be very respectful.   And these Nanyang natives like to run away.   But you bought this batch back, as long as there are a few old ones... You see, they are all so old, You can’t run away.   But with them, those young slaves will not run away, because they have to stay with the old guys to take care of these old people.   These old guys bought them back, and it didn’t take much food to feed them. But those slaves will work obediently and will not run away. Generally speaking, it is still very cost-effective. ”

Du Wei's eyes lit up, and he became more and more curious about this kid... He is really smart, and at such a young age, he has already secretly figured out so many tricks.

"But...why are they wearing shackles?" Du Wei asked, "Those who use ropes are old slaves, and those who are locked in cages are raw slaves. So what's the matter with those who wear shackles?"

"This..." Sandy scratched his scalp and said: "Generally speaking, it means that you are a living slave, but even if you are a raw slave, as long as you don't put it in a cage, it means that you are not very fierce and honest, and you don't want to escape. It is relatively easy to tame.   Moreover, to be honest, these raw slaves are better than cooked slaves... You know, anyone who buys slaves will not give them good food and drink. After a long time No matter how strong a slave is, his body is much thinner. No matter how strong he is, after being tortured like this for a year or two, his body will no longer work.  Although these guys are slaves, they look very honest, no Caged, and very strong, raw slaves are always much stronger than cooked slaves. ”

Du Wei nodded and gave Ruolin a wink, and Ruolin accepted the price.

"Thirty silver coins.  " Ruo Lin's crisp female voice is also very different in the surrounding noise.  There were many people peeking at this beautiful young woman in the crowd, and when she shouted the price, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.

As soon as the slave trader heard someone asking for the price, he immediately shouted: "Oh! Thirty silver coins! This beautiful and noble lady is very knowledgeable! Look, thirty silver coins! Ladies and gentlemen, these slaves are all good things Yes! Thirty silver coins is a very fair price...is there anyone willing to pay more?"

"Thirty-five silver coins." A voice with a somewhat hoarse voice appeared in the crowd.

Du Wei couldn't help but smiled, and glanced at Sandy: "It seems that someone has the same vision as you.  "

Sandy smiled with some embarrassment: "Young Master, you are joking.  My knowledge is based on what I heard. Many people come here every day, and many of them know the goods.  Don't look at it before There are a lot of people yelling, and most of those people are fat sheep from other places, stupid and ignorant of the market. ”

Seeing Du Wei nodded to herself, Ruolin got the master's signal and said loudly: "Forty silver coins. "

"Forty-five. " The hoarse voice in the crowd continued to raise the price steadily.

At this time, many spectators around had stepped aside, and Du Wei finally saw the appearance of the person who raised the price with him.

A middle-aged man in a lavender robe looked a little fat, but he was very strong, with two mustaches on his mouth. There were three or five strong young men standing beside him, dressed in servant's clothes, surrounded by the crowd. Fatty Nian's side perfectly blocked the people around him. Although the crowd was crowded, the place where the fat man was standing was loose, with a hint of reserve on his face, he slowly called out the price, and even glanced at Ruo Lin.

"Fifty silver coins." Ruo Lin said lightly.

"..." The fat man frowned a little, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. After looking at Ruolin, he seemed to sneer: "Sixty silver coins, that's all. "

Sandy saw the fat man's appearance clearly, and suddenly his face changed. Seeing that Ruolin was about to speak, he quickly gave Ruolin a look, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, don't shout.  " (To be continued, if you want To know what happened next, please log in to .qidian., more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
