Chapter 738: Slave Market

At this time, Bai Ge's voice slowly came out of the communicator: "Boss, I just checked Le, there is only one place in Zimbabwe where there may be means of underwater trading. ”

Zhang Ran asked eagerly, "What place?" ”

"A lake on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia called Lake Kaliba."

Zhang Ran nodded and asked Bai Ge, "Lake data?" ”

Bai Ge smiled: "The Kaliba Dam, which was completed in 1958, has a lake length of 290 kilometers and a width of 32 kilometers. ”

"Well, the water in this place is enough for their needs, and tomorrow we will leave for Lake Kaliba, by the way, Bai Ge, 'Kers' has already gone to join Shadowless, keep an eye on their current actions, and you have to keep them safe until they have completely cleared their team's eyeliner mercenaries."

"Understand, Wuying has already given me all the information of all of them, An An is investigating, and there will be results soon."

"Well, Lin Feng also needs your surveillance wherever he is, and the situation there is also very complicated, but I believe that he will treat it rationally, and I have also explained it to him, and I will keep a low profile during this time."

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Interrupting the communicator, Zhang Ran said slowly to the members: "Everyone knows our destination now." ”

Everyone nodded, Zhang Ran smiled: "Set off tomorrow morning, bring the equipment for long-term field operations, it is estimated that we will stay by the lake for a while, this mission personnel arrangement is the same as last time, in Zimbabwe Mona, Thomson and Yanlu do not need to participate in the battle, and after returning to the market base, we are testing your combat effectiveness and giving you tasks according to your strength." ”

Mona, Thomson, and Yanlu stood up and yelled, "Yes! ”

Zhang Ran looked at Yanlu with a slight smile, he thought that Yanlu was becoming more and more mature now, and would no longer ask to participate in the battle with Zhang Ran as before, and now they all completely obeyed Zhang Ran's orders.

Zhang Ran continued: "Black knife and cold-blooded, you go to the city to buy some diving equipment. ”

The black knife nodded, and Zhang Ran: "The rest of the personnel prepare separately." ”

"Yes!"

Early the next morning, everyone gathered again in the garden of the villa, Zhang Ran ordered the saber regiment to set foot on the battlefield in Zimbabwe again, the saber regiment came to Zimbabwe to help the 'Kers' establish a more complete arms business system, but when the saber regiment came here, the people of the 'Cobra' and 'Reaper' mercenary groups had already started, and they began to slowly infiltrate the entire Zimbabwe from small arms dealers, and the 'Cobra' teams in other places also began to act. Zhang Ran has been worried that progress in Zimbabwe is too slow, so he will act immediately as soon as there is news, and he does not want to stay here for too long.

To get to their destination, Zhang Ran and his party still need to pass through two national parks, namely Chizagora National Park and Manx National Park, which are sparsely populated, but the forest terrain is very suitable for mercenary groups to set up camps, so the saber regiment is also cautious on the road.

The 'dark night' in the cab said to Zhang Ran: "Master, the north of the Manx National Park is Lake Kariba, are we just waiting there?" ”

Zhang Ran nodded: "Well, it's convenient for us to hide there." ”

'Dark Night': "Master, there is a slave market in the Manx National Park, I want to go and see it." ”

Zhang Ran looked a little surprised: "There is a slave market in the national park? ”

"Well, this kind of business is very common in Africa, and the government can't handle it completely, and the environment in the forest can be better hidden, besides, the slave market in the Manx National Park has existed since the Middle Ages, and it is a relatively large slave market in Africa."

Zhang Ran: "How far is the slave market from the northernmost part of the park?" ”

"It's not far, and it's estimated that it's only half a day's journey."

"Half a day? Well, we can go check it out. "Zhang Ran agreed to the request of 'Dark Night', Zhang Ran knew that 'Dark Night' had always hated the scars on his face, and now that he had the opportunity to go to the slave market with the members of the Saber Regiment, of course 'Dark Night' wanted to try his luck.

After two days and one night's driving, the Sabre Regiment finally reached the vicinity of the Manx National Park, and under the leadership of 'Dark Night', the vehicle slowly drove into the forest, and the road was complicated from time to time with many forks in the road, and 'Dark Night' drove the vehicle with ease, and after a few hours came to a plain.

Not far away, a fence similar to the camp of the mercenary group appeared in front of Zhang Ran's eyes, but there were all kinds of different combat vehicles and ordinary vehicles parked outside the fence, and it was obvious that many guests had gone to 'purchase' slaves.

The black knife pointed to a combat vehicle and said to Zhang Ran: "Boss, look. ”

On the body of the combat vehicle, a snake and vine logo is clearly visible, and it can be seen which mercenary group it belongs to, and the bodies of other combat vehicles are also painted with different signs and symbols, Zhang Ran seemed a little puzzled: "Why didn't the body of the combat vehicle have these symbols in the previous battle?" ”

The black knife said slowly: "Boss, the pattern of the mercenary world is stabilizing, each mercenary group is announcing its own existence, and now not only the combat vehicle, but even the mercenary arms almost have the emblem of their respective mercenary group, the purpose is to tell the opponent their identity, and sometimes the identity can be won without a fight." ”

Zhang Ran smiled: "Hehe, the mercenaries of mercenary groups like 'Black Water', 'Death', and 'Cobra' are happy to tattoo the logo of their mercenary group on their bodies, I guess they will be printed in the most obvious position." ”

"Hehe, of course, as mercenaries of the three major mercenary groups, they have always been very proud, especially those third-class mercenaries, this identity is enough for them to be swaggering."

The more ineffective the mercenary is, the more they need to declare their team and tell those small mercenary groups that they can't afford to mess with, after all, the strength of the team behind them is not something they can compete with.

Zhang Ran got out of the car and walked to the slave market with the members, in the center of the fence, a wooden platform was built, on which many local blacks were tied with ropes with their hands and necks, and their heads were covered with black hoods, kneeling neatly behind the platform, and in front of the platform, chairs were placed, and it could be seen that this was the place where the guests bought and bid, and around the camp, there were many stalls similar to vendors. The goods were squatting in the innermost part of the stall, and it seemed that these locals were some underage children, several of the children were covered faces, curled up in the corners of the stalls, the rope marks left by the struggle could be seen on the wrists of the hands tied behind the back, and the bare feet stepped on the ground, and the sound of crying could be heard from the stalls from time to time.

A mercenary-looking man was standing in front of several children with a leather whip, and when he heard the cry, he waved the leather whip in his hand and whipped it on the slave's body, and there was a mercenary standing in front of the stall, looking at Zhang Ran with a smile on his face: "This friend, do you need some labor?" ”

Zhang Ran asked, "Price?" ”

The mercenary looked a little surprised, and then asked Zhang Ran, "Mr. is here for the first time?" ”

"Hmm." Zhang Ran knew that there were his own rules and prices here, and the performance of asking directly about prices like himself was very different from other regulars, and he did not have to hide the situation of coming to the slave market for the first time.

The mercenary smiled and said to Zhang Ran: "Sir, except for the platform in the middle of the market, which is the bidding area, the goods sold by the surrounding stalls are all pricing areas, which means that the prices we have here are set." ”

Zhang Ran nodded: "Say it, how much." ”

"Hehe, under the age of fifteen is $10,000, from the age of fifteen to thirty-five is $100,000, and from thirty-five to fifty-five is $80,000."

Zhang Ran asked, "What about the bidding area of the platform?" ”

"Sir, the goods there are all natives between fifteen and thirty-five, all of them are the best slaves of the goods, these people have good physical strength and strength, and they are the best laborers, and some are service slaves, these slaves can manage your villa or house well, and some are literate goods, and some are special goods."

"Special cargo?"

The mercenary put his face close to Zhang Ran: "It's a woman, a woman of all colors." ”

Zhang Ran looked at the mercenary in surprise: "There are women from other countries?" ”

"Hehe, every year people come to Africa for tourism, I don't know what attracts them here, hehe, these tourists are a good source of slaves."

"You've kidnapped tourists from other countries?"

"Hehe, this is a normal thing, besides, no country will pay attention to tourists who disappear in dangerous places, and it is possible to be attacked by wild beasts, you say."

Zhang Ran's eyes were already slightly murderous: "Hehe, yes!" Be! ”

The mercenary looked at Zhang Ran with some interest, and continued: "I tell you, don't look at those people sitting in the bidding area waiting for slaves, in fact, they are waiting for captives. ”

"Captive?"

"It's the mercenaries captured on the battlefield, these people have good physical fitness, and they also have a little combat effectiveness, bring them back and 'cultivate' a little, they will become your mercenaries, and many of them are here for this group of goods." After speaking, the mercenary smiled mysteriously at Zhang Ran: "Hehe, do you know that we have traded a mercenary of $800,000 here?" ”

Zhang Ran smiled: "I don't know." ”

"Hehe, that mercenary was only less than fifteen years old when he was brought here, and he already had good combat effectiveness, this kind of good seedling everyone wants, I remember that in the end, it seems to have been purchased by the 'Battle Blade' mercenary group, but I heard that it seems that he ran away on the way back with the kid."

Hearing what the mercenary said, the 'dark night' on the side gritted his teeth, his fists clenched, Zhang Ran looked at the reaction of the 'dark night', and slowly asked the mercenary: "Do you remember the appearance of the mercenary who was less than fifteen years old?" ”

The mercenary dragged his chin with his right hand, pretending to think, Zhang Ran immediately understood what the mercenary wanted, and the black knife took out a stack of dollars from his pocket: "Remember?" ”

The mercenary took the cash with a smile and smiled: "Remember, remember, that mercenary is the one I was responsible for escorting from the dungeon to the bidding area, hehe, I remember that he was wearing a mask at the time, but there was a deep scar on the center of his eyebrows on his face, it looks like it has just been treated, it should be caused by the person who sold him." ”

'Dark Night' walked up to Zhang Ran: "Master, don't ask. ”
