Chapter 46: Human Animals
"Sir, that's not what the student meant. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info not to mention a sword, but sir, but there is a need, even if my entire vassal king gives it to sir. Gongzi Jun hurriedly explained.
"Oh, is it? So, isn't a vassal palace even a promise? Zhan Bai deliberately said that it was neither yin nor yang.
By now, if Gongzi Jun can't hear Zhanbai's intentions, then he really deserves to die.
But it was precisely because of this that Gongzi Jun was sweating profusely, and he only felt that he couldn't speak clearly when he was full of mouths.
Hey, is this considered to be clever but mistaken by cleverness, and you can't live if you do your own evil?
Just as Zhanbai said before, Gongzi Jun did deliberately conceal the matter of the Yellow Sky Cemetery, and the reason was that he was afraid of annoying those with vested interests, so he could be regarded as leaving a way back for himself by changing his direction.
What seemed to be a smart move now seems to be so naïve.
If you think about it carefully, what kind of task Zhanbai is, if he doesn't know it, it's fine, but once he knows, how can he give up. And such a consequence is obviously not something that can be compensated for by taking out some other benefits.
"Sir, this, this is really a misunderstanding, Lone Wang, no, I am not a ...... student"
"It's not that I misunderstood, it's you who really misunderstood." Zhan Bai interrupted Gongzi Jun's explanation, "Today, the reason why I didn't say it explicitly is to save you a little face, and I don't want to cut off our love of incense." ”
"I'm not a greedy person, and I don't even disdain to lick my face and beg for money, and the reason why I'm like this today is just that I think I deserve it, don't you say?"
Does Zhanbai deserve it?
If Zhan Bai can really assist Gongzi Jun to sit in the highest ninety-five position, let alone the entry certificate of the Yellow Sky Cemetery, even if he gives more, it will not be too much. Even if the great cause is still far away, what Zhanbai said is just a promise.
This was not a difficult question to answer, but because of Gongzijun's cleverness at the beginning, it turned into a farce, which caused a lot of shame.
At this time, Gongzi Jun undoubtedly regretted it, regretted using his cleverness on Zhanbai, and regretted not being able to show the greatest sincerity at the beginning.
As Zhan Bai said, the reason why he chose to beat around the bush today is to prevent each other from tearing the last of their faces.
For Zhanbai, he has done his best, in this case, does Gongzi Jun still have a choice?
"Sir, the student is here to apologize to you, the sincerest apology." Gongzi Jun was speechless, so he could only make the last effort, hoping to make up for the gap between the two.
"Well, that's it. I will help you ascend to the throne, and you will give me a certificate to enter the Yellow Sky Cemetery. It's a deal, and it's just a deal. Zhanbai said it clearly, but it made Gongzi Jun regret it.
Zhanbai's initial plan was just to help him ascend the throne, and as for the assistant after ascending the throne, he was actually unwilling, and this issue had been mentioned to Gongzi Jun before.
It was only because Gongzi Jun suddenly worshiped Zhanbai as his father that he finally shook Zhanbai's determination, but now listening to his tone, I am afraid that there is no room for turn.
"Actually, I'm not a good person to be a friend. Because of my personality, I always like to speculate with the most sinister intentions to outsiders, and at the same time, I naturally substitute myself into the role of a conspirator. For example, you concealed the matter of the Yellow Sky Cemetery from me, perhaps, you did not do it out of bad intentions, but just to surprise me on the day of the event, after all, compared to the promise in advance, it is often easier to buy people's hearts with a momentary surprise. It's not that I didn't think of this possibility, but I will subconsciously ignore it and treat it as the most sinister situation. Zhan Bai obviously didn't want to completely turn his face with Gongzi Jun, so at this time, he explained with rare patience.
"Therefore, it is not necessarily a good thing that you recognize me as my father. And my greatest role to you is also more reflected in the struggle for the throne, otherwise, after you ascend the throne, if I still do not have the consciousness to leave, then the final result will not be what you and I want to see now. Of course, before I leave, I will leave you some of my own shallow views on governing the country, and whether you listen to it in the end is only in your heart. ”
After a lot of rambling, Zhanbai didn't give Gongzi Jun a chance to speak, so he turned around and left.
At this time, no matter how he explains, Gongzi Jun will inevitably fall into embarrassment, rather than this, it is better to use time to slowly cover up today's unhappiness.
Perhaps, after a good night's sleep, the two of them will forget all this, even if it is hypocritical, they will behave a lot more naturally.
Zhan Bai walked back to his mansion alone, and after a simple breakfast with Bao Yun, he called the sound of the piano to the study, and said goodbye.
After a while, Qin Yin walked out of the mansion with Bao Yun under the protection of several disciples of the Dark Sword Pavilion.
……
In the Spring and Autumn Continent, there is a unique scenery called slaves.
Yes, slaves.
The origin of slaves is more a product of war.
In the endless war, the most bitter people are undoubtedly the people living at the bottom.
These ordinary people were born in the Spring and Autumn Continent, and they were destined to live a miserable life, and they not only had to work hard to support the unearned people of the upper echelons. In addition to normal work, there is even military service and a lot of conscription.
It's still good to go out young and pay it back, for those who have served in the military, there is still a life. But more of them are horse leather shrouds, which remain on the battlefield forever, leaving only the old and young of the full family with no one to support.
A broken family is worthless, and in order to live, selling children and porridge is the only way out. And these teenagers and even children became the best goods in the slave market.
Of course, in addition, prisoners of war and civilians taken captive from enemy countries also accounted for a large part of the slaves, but the price was much lower, and even if they were bought, the fate that awaited them would only be more miserable.
Although Yingcheng is not a frontier, it is not far from here, and it is a rare important town, which has further aggravated the supply and demand of slaves under the prosperity. So in the north of the city, there was a market for people and animals.
The so-called human animal is to sell people as livestock, which is the so-called slave.
Who would have imagined that it was such a dirty and messy bazaar that created 30% of Yingcheng's commercial tax. During the day, it is filled with haggling between buyers and sellers and auctions one after another, and at night, it is also uneasy as slave traders from all over the world pour their "goods" into the merchants.
At the end of the day, the sound of the piano and the praise appeared in this market, and the two women covered their mouths and noses with a square handkerchief in disgust, but they still could not stop the unpleasant smell, which was not much better than the stable pigsty.
"I don't want to stay in this kind of place for a moment. Go to the tooth shop, the tooth people are familiar with the way, as long as they make enough benefits, their efficiency is far more than ours. The tone seems to be proposing, but the tone is difficult to question.
For this strange woman who has been with her for less than two days, and is about to become her own housewife, perhaps out of jealousy, Qin Yin really can't raise too much affection.
If it is said that Yin'er feels ashamed of Qinyin, and even fearful in his bones. Then the woman next to her, called Baoyun, is beautiful, but she is a complete vase.
The cultivation is miserable, acting coquettishly, and without Ning Xiaoning's ability to be so strong that even Yin'er can feel a deep threat, it is just this skin, and there is still something to praise.
Qin Yin can't figure it out, there has always been no shortage of women around Mr., let alone beautiful women, Xiao Na and Yi Yi sisters may not be much worse than the woman next to them, and several women in Jian Feiyan are all rare beauties, even if they are themselves, they are not bad. But why did Mr. fall in love with her at first sight?
Because I can't figure it out, I'm so depressed that I don't bother to do even a superficial compliment.
"Okay, everything is up to my sister." Bao Yun didn't seem to feel the attitude of Qin Yin, and the delicate melon seeds still had a warm smile on their faces.
After receiving Praise Yun's consent, Qin Yin didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to a Dark Sword Pavilion disciple behind him, "Disgusted with the scorpion, you quickly go and find a tooth man to come over, and tell him that there is a big business coming to the door." (To be continued.) )
