540 Ms. Lichun
In the square leading to the market gate in the col, the rape/traitor was caught. He ran headlong into the stress-activated energy barrier of the security system as he fled, and was subdued by the security guards who arrived later.
Gu Hanhan stood at the bottom of the steps and saw that the villain was twisted his arm, and was escorted through the square by a group of security guards, and was sent into the security room, so he asked, "What will you do with him, usually things like this?"
"Of course, you have to deal with it seriously, pay for it according to the price, and then fine. We have regulations that impose a fine of three times in this case. The hostess replied, in a casual tone, not taking it very seriously.
"Are you going to call the police, sue them, put them in jail to set an example?" asked Zheng Wenwen. Her expression was very bad, and her bloodless face looked pale, with the anger she had just seen.
"Call the police?" the hostess looked taken aback, then smiled, "Of course it's impossible." He was only encroaching on a slave for sale, not setting fire to the market. ”
"It's useless to call the police," she explained, "it's not a criminal case, it's still happening in the market, and it's not enough to be detained for 24 hours for violating the law and order." Even if the police are called and the case is filed in court, it is handled in accordance with civil property disputes. The penalty can be higher than the infringement and damage to personal property, but it is only a compensation and a fine according to the price, which is not a deterrent to the guests who do it, but is very unfavorable to the market. ”
Gu Hanhan didn't understand what was unfavorable to the market, so he asked, "Why?"
"Because of the exchange rate and settlement method!" Miss Usherin said as a matter of course, looking at Gu Hanhan's eyes like a stupid elder sister who couldn't count, "How much is the reserve coupon worth, and how much can the universe coin be worth?" The slaves in our market are all settled according to the reserve volume, and the tax is also paid with the reserve coupon, but the court will not care about you, the status of the cosmic coin is the universal currency of the galaxy, and the settlement between the cosmic coin and the earth's reserve volume according to the exchange rate announced by the United Nations Trade and Customs Organization is stipulated by the cosmic law, so the court can only admit it. The verdict or the initial award was to compensate the reserve voucher, but if the offender couldn't afford to pay or was a little scoundrel and insisted on saying no, then the sentence had to be changed and agreed to be paid in Cosmic Coins. The official exchange rate between the cosmic coin and the reserve volume can be as much as there is, and it will be up to the sky if there can be a thousand. A slave can be sold for ten yuan in the market, and it can be converted into cosmic coins in court for only 10,000 yuan, and even if the fine is added, it will be 50,000 yuan at most. What's more, the court may have to calculate depreciation, which is not even 50,000 yuan. Hey, less than 50,000 yuan can take away a living slave, what is the difference between this and giving it for nothing? If we have to come several times a day, we will not lose even our underwear in the market! You must know that we provide supplies to the slave market at the next level, and even if it is a wholesale price, a slave will be counted at least 15 to 200,000 cosmic coins. Many of the guys who go to the slave market and □□ beat up slaves for sale for no reason may not be villains or perverts at all, but just wishful thinking to make a big fuss and pick up cheap. ”
"Therefore, when the slave market encounters this kind of thing, it wants to calm the situation and strive for a settlement through negotiation, and no one wants to make a fuss to the extent of calling the police or even going to court. It would be best if he could spend money on the wounded slaves, or he could pay a little discount or installments in private, as long as it was a reserve voucher, it would be negotiable. If he dares to cheat, our security guards are not without measures. But if you really meet a poor ghost who has no money, then you have no choice but to admit your bad luck and let him pay some money for treatment, nutrition, and lost work. This is not a slave market in a remote galaxy, where lawlessness can be carried out, and the usury merchant is right next door, ready to press the customer's finger to force him to borrow from the loan shark to pay the fine. ”
The usher lady smiled at Gu Hanhan and Zheng Wenwen, revealing two rows of neat teeth: "Our lighthouse star is a great place with a legal system." ”
After Zheng Wenwen heard this, the whole person became even worse, and she stomped her feet and cursed in a low voice: "Hellish lighthouse star! Hellish legal system! Hellish alien!"
Gu Hanhan laughed.
The usher continued to accompany Gu Hanhan and the others to walk forward, and when they walked to the gate, Miss Usher seemed to be very unwilling to send them out of the door because such a group of big customers had slipped away from her hands and had not made a deal, so she deliberately took out her business card and handed it to the servant who looked like a housekeeper next to Gu Hanhan, and finally said: "Our market can also provide telephone ordering and online ordering services, if you want slaves, you can contact me at any time." You can also designate me as your Consulting Services Specialist. I am always available and happy to serve you. ”
Gu Hanhan's heart moved, so he reached out and grabbed the business card in his hand.
Gu Hanhan glanced at the business card and saw that the name of the hostess was Lichun, so he asked, "Miss Lichun, I don't know if your identity is a slave or a free citizen?"
"Me?" The usher lady was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Gu Hanhan to ask such a simple question, and then she smiled: "Of course I'm a slave." How could a freeman find such a job if he were not a slave? It seems that you are indeed from a very distant place, oh, you seem to have said that you are from Earth, which is very different from the universe. In the universe, not to mention the lighthouse star, the slightly more prosperous planet, the service industry and the ordinary work, are all filled by slaves. In fact, all the employees in this market, from the top to the bottom from the experience to the cleaners, are all slaves of our boss. Isn't it strange to have to hire workers to guard the entire slave market?"
After finishing speaking, she subconsciously straightened her chest: "But I'm not like those lowly slaves on the shelf, I am from the green grassland pasture, and I still have a certificate of excellence." "The tone of the voice is very proud and proud.
"Oh, that's pretty remarkable. Gu Hanhan said, "But I still don't understand one thing, your boss uses the entire market employees as slaves, doesn't he worry about anything - such as passive sabotage, sabotage of production and sales, and the like?"
The hostess looked even more surprised: "How is this possible? Why do we do things that are passive and sabotage, destroying production and sales, or even worse? We work hard, and the boss will give us sales commissions and rewards, and we can use these to improve our quality of life, and even choose our own partners to get married and have children, and if we are lucky enough to have no crimes and have good performance, we can also strive to be transferred to an idle job and die a safe life in the future." As a slave, what is there to be dissatisfied with in such a life? But if we don't work hard, don't work hard to show our value so that the boss thinks that we are useful, and we deserve to be superior, then we will be hung on a tree and sold there. That's very bad, very bad......"
She pointed back to the hillsides behind her and the shelves of the trees on the hillside, and her face palpitated, as if that situation was terrifying even to think about.
"That's ...... so"
"Ms. Lichun, right?" Gu Hanhan nodded, and then said, "I bought you." ”
"Shall I buy me?" said the hostess, whose face changed several times, and stammered, "but ...... But...... But I'm not for sale, no...... ...... that don't sell"
But Gu Hanhan had already been surrounded by servants and walked towards the exit passages where the booths stood in the square, and the last person in the line who looked like a bodyguard walked up to the hostess. "Lead the way," he said, "Ms. Lichun." ”
"Where are you going?" the hostess couldn't help but take a step back.
"Go to your manager's office. The man said, "Or someone else who can sell you." ”
"No, I'm not going!" the hostess looked horrified, took a few steps back, and turned her head to run—no, he didn't want to be bought into the bandits' lair! She lived a good life here, and she was not dissatisfied with her work, commissions, and bonuses, and she could even scrape together enough money to exchange for a beautiful vacation where she could stay in a four-star hotel and soak in a hot spring and hook up with a handsome little boy. Maybe her new master is a perverted psychopath, isn't that the case with many legendary bandits or vampire-like aristocrats? They may take themselves to the abyss of the universe, surrounded by raging cosmic storms, and they can't see the sun rising all year round, so they can only be locked up in a swarthy devil-like spaceship and moldy......
However, the man's hands clamped her arms like two iron pliers, lifting her feet off the ground with a slight lift. The waitress struggled to no avail, so she could only kick her legs in vain, and some useless threats came out of her mouth: "Let me go! Our manager will never sell me, I am the sales champion of the market! You bandits, don't try to buy and sell! Our security guards are not vegetarians! We ...... Let me tell you, our boss has a backstage in the market management committee, a big backstage - help, come on, help!"
"Cooperate a little, Ms. Lichun, I'm not familiar with how to buy you," the man's face became obviously impatient, "We have to hurry up, we have to wait for Miss to make trouble, but it's a big sin, you don't want to buy it on the first day and fall into the hands of the bureau, right?"
So, when Gu Hanhan walked along the passage through the booths and walked out of the gate of the Red Crispy Hand Slave Market, Miss Lichun, the former usher who had been forcibly bought and sold, was already standing under the airship and waiting—she was carrying a small suitcase in front of her with both hands, her eyes were red, and she had obviously just experienced a big cry. The look of astonishment remained on her face, so much so that she still looked a little stunned. Gu Hanhan looked at her, she wiped her eyes in a panic, squeezed out a smile based on experience, and wanted to kneel down to greet her "master", but was stopped by the servant next to her with a stern gaze - kneeling and calling the master are not everyone who has this qualification. She wanted to cry again, but she didn't know what was wrong again, so she had to pinch the handle of the suitcase with trepidation.
Gu Hanhan glanced at the hostess in front of him, and said to the chief attendant of Gal, "Let's go to the trading center first to complete the formalities of Lichun before leaving." Then he boarded the airship.
