142nd Slave Trade
When Lin Yi heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll go out for a walk." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
At this moment, on the streets of Qingyang City, people come and go, and there is an endless stream, and Lin Yi is wandering around with the flow of people, seeing wherever he goes.
When walking on the street, Lin Yi found that the folk customs of the Western Qin people were quite strong, and when he was shopping, he saw several duels on the street because of quarrels, of course, this duel is not a duel of life and death, but two people on the street to open the formation, a fight, the losing side apologized to the winning party, naturally, this quarrel ended here.
"It is said that the people of the Western Qin Empire are martial arts and advocate solving problems by force. Lin Yi secretly exclaimed.
"It is no wonder that since the Western Qin Empire launched a war against the Southern Chu Empire, the Southern Chu Empire has been defeated like a mountain, and all the territories north of the Jing River have fallen into the hands of the Western Qin Empire. Lin Yi couldn't help but think like this in his heart.
After walking around for a while, Lin Yi suddenly heard the flow of people in front of him suddenly become crowded, and faintly, there was a sound of laughter.
Seeing this, Lin Yi suddenly became interested in his heart.
did not hesitate, Lin Yidang followed him.
Forcibly peeling open the crowd that surrounded the three layers inside and three layers outside, I saw more than ten large iron cages in the center of the crowd, and inside each iron cage, there were five or six people in ragged clothes and dirty.
Outside the iron cage, there was a fat man who was spitting at the onlookers.
After listening to it for a long time, Lin Yi knew that the people in these iron cages were all slaves, and the fat man was the slave owner, and what he was doing now was to sell his slaves.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yi's heart immediately couldn't help but feel a little disgusted. Although he didn't think he was a good person, he still couldn't recognize the sympathy when he saw this scene, they were all human beings, why did they have to be locked in an iron cage and treated as commodities bought and sold at will?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi's impression of the country of the Western Qin Empire couldn't help but deteriorate a little, he didn't expect that this country would allow slaves to be bought and sold at will under the public.
"Haha, let's take a look, all the slaves here are captured from the northern Hu people, everyone knows that the northern Hu people are very strong, you buy one and go home, all the heavy and dirty work at home can help you sit, if you are in a bad mood one day, you can also beat him to vent, or even kill him, after all, in our country, slaves are not protected by criminal law. The fat man was selling hard.
"How much is it?" someone asked.
"Haha, it's not expensive, it's not expensive, fifty taels of silver can be taken home and you can make cattle and horses!" The fat man laughed loudly.
"Fifty taels is not expensive, bring me two, damn me has been in a bad mood lately, and I am worried that I have no place to vent, and these two slaves are just a gas bag. The man was obviously a rich man, and he answered it in one breath.
"Haole, I'll bring it to you!" the fat man laughed, and then opened the iron cage, and from it he pulled out two thin men who were chained around their necks, and these two men obviously knew their fate, and there was a look of despair in their eyes.
As soon as they saw this man like this, everyone also began to move forward, looked at these slaves, and when they had chosen, they paid directly and took them away.
Standing aside, Lin Yi felt a sense of sadness in his heart for no reason, whether it was in this life or in the previous life, there would always be a dark side in the world, and this existence, no matter where it was, seemed to be unavoidable.
For example, now, people who are obviously living are being bought as commodities, and they don't even know how long they can live at this time, this ...... Isn't it a sadness?
At that moment, Lin Yi wanted to buy them and let them go, but was this useful? After they were released, since they did not have the household registration of the Western Qin Empire, they were destined to be captured and sold as slaves again.
Soon, nearly thirty or so slaves were bought by the passing people, and after they were bought, what awaited them was probably the dark and inhuman torture.
Who can they blame? Blame the soldiers of the Western Qin Empire? Blame the fat man? Yes, they can all blame, but in the end, they can only blame the injustice of fate and the ruthlessness of this world!
At this moment, among the many iron cages, only an extremely thin figure remained, curled up in the iron cage, waiting for his fate that would eventually come.
"Come out!" the fat man pulled the voice by the hair, then dragged it out of the iron cage.
"Ahh
Hearing this voice, Lin Yi's brows furrowed even deeper, he could hear that this slave was a woman, and listening to the voice, it sounded that she was not very old.
"Hey, that's all there is left, everyone, I'm going to finish work now, so I'll sell it cheaply! Thirty taels, thirty taels can bring this little girl home!" the fat man spat and said.
"This little girl has only a few taels of meat all over her body, how strong can she be, what can I do for me when I buy it home? Moreover, looking at her small body, I can't help but beat, maybe I haven't whipped her a few times, she will die, don't buy it, it's not cost-effective!" someone shook his head.
"Hey, why are you beating her! go home and wash her and warm your bed!" the fat man laughed lewdly.
"Haha......" There was a lewd laugh around him.
"Come on, this girl, it is estimated that the hair has not grown yet, look at her and see that she is dirty, it is estimated that it still smells after washing, I don't want to warm my bed, don't you say, these are Hu people in the north, I heard that Hu people are born with a smell, I want her to warm my bed, I'm not crazy!"
"Haha, yes, yes, this girl is estimated to be sold to Qinglou, and it is estimated that no one wants it. The crowd laughed.
"This ......" When the fat man heard this, he had nothing to say for a while.
"Hey, let's disperse, let's go look elsewhere and see where there are still high-quality slaves to buy!" Seeing that the slaves here had been sold, the people surrounding them were gradually dispersed.
"Stinky girl, every time you are the only one left, you can't sell it, what's the use of you!" The fat man pulled up the hair of the thin figure and slapped it.
And at the moment when the thin figure was forcibly pulled up, Lin Yi saw those eyes.
Very clean!
Even though her face was covered with dirt, even though her complexion was extremely yellow, her eyes were still pure, pure and almost without any impurities.
After being slapped in the face, her face was still calm, obviously such treatment was already commonplace for her, she struggled to get up, and then lowered her head again, waiting for the second slap from the fat man.
She knew that the current fat man was very angry, so he would never just slap her.
"Useless thing!" the fat man scolded, and then raised his hand again and struck at the weak figure.
But this time he didn't slap it, because halfway through it, his hand was grabbed by the other hand.
Lin Yi grabbed the fat man's hand, and then said expressionlessly: "I bought this slave!"
"You?" the fat man looked Lin Yi up and down, and a look of surprise came out of his mouth.
And after the thin figure heard it, he couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Lin Yi.
"Not for sale?" Lin Yi frowned slightly.
"Sell, sell, sell, sell. The fat man hurriedly said, but he looked at Lin Yi again and said, "But...... Can you afford it?"
Indeed, Lin Yi is now wearing an extremely ordinary clothes, which is the clothes that Xiao Feng sent someone to find for him casually at that time, and after the fat man saw Lin Yi dressed ordinary, he was a little unconvinced that Lin Yi could buy slaves.
When Lin Yi heard this, he searched up and down, only to find that he didn't have a tael of silver on his body, and it had been two years since he walked out of Qingyang Town, and in these two years, he had been spending time in the sect, where would he use the currency that circulated in the secular world - silver?
Seeing Lin Yi searching up and down, but he didn't find anything, a look of contempt immediately appeared in the eyes of the fat man.
"Boy. , don't pretend if you don't have money, I just said, you poor and sour, you can buy a slave, go away!" The fat man pushed Lin Yi and said impatiently.
However, his push was embarrassing, and he found that he pushed hard, but Lin Yi did not move at all.
He glanced at Lin Yi, and a little different color flashed on his face.
"I don't really have silver, but I have something to trade for you. As he spoke, a rather crystalline stone appeared in Lin Yi's hand.
"Do you know this?" Lin Yi asked at the fat man.
"This ...... This is the spirit stone !!?" The fat man looked shocked.
"It's good to know, a spirit stone, is it feasible to change this person?" Lin Yi then asked.
Absolutely!
The fat man cheered in his heart, you know, in the world, a low-grade spirit stone is worth a thousand taels of silver, and he looks at the spirit stone in Lin Yi's hand, the grade is definitely not low, so he will definitely be able to exchange this spirit stone for more silver.
However, what he didn't understand was why Lin Yi still had an uncertain look on his face, didn't he know how precious the spirit stone was in the secular world?
"This person should be a disciple of those immortal cultivators, and he doesn't understand some things in the world, this person, you can't offend!" the fat man couldn't help but say in his heart.
"Okay, then this little girl will be yours!" The fat man took the spirit stone handed over by Lin Yi with one hand, and handed the chain that held the little girl's slave to Lin Yi with the other.
