Chapter 467: The Slave Market

"Slave market?" Hearing these four words, Xia Lin, Shen Jie, He Mei and Lu Xue's eyes couldn't help but widen.

Their reactions were a little strange, Qiu Kai looked at the three of them, and He Mei was curious about what these four words showed.

She hadn't seen the slave market, but she had obviously heard of it, so she was curious.

Xia Lin and Shen Jie should have heard of it, but what flashed on their faces was a trace of disgust, which is understandable when you think about it, after all, this slave market is not such a humane existence, and some people with moral hearts will be very disgusted.

As for Lu Xue, it was a pure accident, and it seemed that she had not heard of this place.

"Yes, the slave market, it's in the inner city, next to it is the place where the inner city trades, it's not far away." Hearing the words of these four people, Cao Xia said with a serious face, and hearing Cao Xia's words, Qiu Kai also looked at these girls.

"Do you buy slaves, or hire people?" Looking at the girls behind him, Qiu Kai asked them.

"It's a bit difficult to hire people, after all, it's just a contract for hire, and slaves are different, and I've only heard of this place before, I haven't been to it yet, let's go see it!" Before Xia Lin and Shen Jie could speak, He Mei here had already spoken excitedly, and hearing her words, although Xia Lin and Shen Jie felt a little pitiful in the face of these slaves.

But it's really hard to directly reject He Mei's proposal, after all, the reason why they can live safely now is because He Mei introduced them to Qiu Kai's relationship, and now among the three of them, He Mei seems to be the little leader of the three. Although they were a little unbearable in their hearts, they were not very good at speaking out, as for Lu Xue. She didn't care about any of that in the first place.

This person's heart is cold, and she doesn't care about these things, all she needs to do is to follow Qiu Kai attentively.

"I think you may have misunderstood, these slaves are basically sold into slavery voluntarily." As if seeing the reluctance in Xia Lin and Shen Jie's eyes, Cao Xia thought for a while. Said to the two of them.

"Voluntary?" When they heard these two words, Xia Lin and Shen Jie couldn't believe it.

Crossing people's hearts with their own hearts, if it were them. No matter how difficult life is, they will not want to be a slave.

Therefore, they didn't believe these two words in their hearts, and their gaze at Cao Xia became strange.

"Yes. Voluntarily! Hearing the two not believe their words. Cao Xia nodded, and then began to explain.

In this world, society collapses, order collapses, and there are only two principles for everything, one is to eat the weak, and the other is to survive, human beings are a very strange and contradictory species. When I was alive, I shouted every day: Isn't it just death? Afraid of what? People die and birds rise to the sky, and they do not die for thousands of years. Eighteen years later, it's a good guy or something.

But no one is not afraid of death, except for those who are mentally ill, all people are afraid of death.

It is strange to say that the hearts of people in this world are difficult to guess, some people are willing to die standing up, and some people are willing to live on their knees.

According to Cao Xia's introduction, these slaves are basically divided into four types.

One is some children, most of these children were eight years ago, only five or six years old, or about ten years old, when the disaster came, their families died, or they were orphans, and their own awakened power was very weak, there was no potential at all, most of them died, and those who survived were recruited by the survivor camp, but the camp is not a welfare institution, these people have potential, or a group of people with good physical fitness, will become soldiers, but there are also a large number of girls, and men who are not very good in physical fitness, To put it mildly, it's useless waste in this world.

Most of these people went to work as farmers, to farm, to work in factories, and so on, and some of them were very beautiful, and they would be turned from camps into slaves, and some of the money would be taken back from the rich people.

Such slaves are of the best quality, followed by some people who voluntarily sell themselves, the power of these people's awakening is very weak, in this world, the way of human awakening is strange, some people's abilities are very useful, such as space, ability, speed, spirit, and some people's abilities are somewhat useful, but not big, such as strength, bouncing, physical strength The evolution of these bodies, and some people, the evolution of evolution is almost useless, for example, the ability of someone to evolve is particularly edible, One meal can cap the amount of food for 900 people, but after eating enough, you will not be hungry for three years, but your strength and spirit are all normal, so there is a use for such an evolutionary direction? There are also people who can conduct electricity, touch the wire with one hand and touch the lamp with the other, and they can make the bulb glow, this ability may have some effect in the future, but it is obviously useless now.

A first-level character can only hold a battery to shine, what's the point?

People who evolve like this are undoubtedly going to be eliminated in this world, those who are good-looking, and they can also try their luck outside, if anyone wants them, those who are not good-looking, in order to live, they can only sell themselves into slavery.

The third type of people is the criminals, who kill people in the street, or attack the army, most of them will be killed, and a small part will be arrested and auctioned off as slaves.

The last type of person is the prisoner of war, although the human race in this world has a common enemy, the demon.

But human beings are originally creatures who are good at infighting, when humans were just gaining a foothold in this world, there were not only sixteen survivor camps, but more than two hundred, but most of these survivor camps were wiped out by demons, and some others attacked each other, winning and swallowing everything, and losing to death.

Some high-level immediate family members naturally have to be killed, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but some people who are far away.

They will not be killed, and those who are capable will be recruited, and those who are not able will be reduced to slaves and go to mine and build roads.

This survivor camp has now grown to a scale of about 10 million, and of course, it has also come from the blood and water step by step.

Therefore, imaginary slave catchers, slave traders, do not exist in this world.

The main reason is that the top will not allow such a thing to be in turmoil.

Hearing Cao Xia's words, Xia Lin and Shen Jie glanced at each other and stopped talking, because they didn't know what to say.

Although they still reject the slave system from the depths of their hearts, to be honest, it is difficult for them to manage this, because in a sense, there is a reason why these slaves become slaves, and it is obviously unfair for them, outsiders, to comment directly from the moral high ground.

Since you don't understand, let's choose to shut up for the time being! Seeing that the two of them were also silent, Qiu Kai nodded.

"Then let's go check it out." Looking at Cao Xia and Cao Yu, Qiu Kai said to them, after hearing Qiu Kai's words, the two also bowed respectfully, and then took Qiu Kai and his four women to leave the villa together, and walked towards the center of the city.

As soon as he walked here, Qiu Kai felt that it was really a lot more lively here, there were many shops that were rarely seen on the street, but there were many here, and there were many restaurants that could hardly be seen in the outer city, although the seasoning was insufficient, but stir-frying, hot pot, these are not too high requirements for seasonings, and the restaurants are still open here.

There are a lot more people on the street than before, and the luxury cars of this world are also shuttling on the streets.

Some people will inadvertently take a few more glances when they see Qiu Kai and his party, but it is not Qiu Kai that they are too alternative, mainly because of Cao Xia and Cao Yu, the appearance of these sisters is originally extremely high, which can be compared with Charlene, who has the highest appearance here, and at the same time, this is still a pair of twins, and they are also wearing maid clothes, so they have to let these men pay attention.

The reason why no one dared to come was mainly because Qiu Kai had already pinned the badge on his arm and hung it with the bronze armband of the Mercenary Guild, although they didn't look carefully, they didn't know what was written on the golden bean.

But as long as it is a golden bean, it is a general-level, this is not wrong, the survivor camp, the general-level official, even if it is just a brigadier general, then it has at least sixth-level strength, far from what they can do.

All the way under the leadership of Cao Xia and Cao Yu, Qiu Kai and they came to a street very quickly, the people on this street are obviously much more than other places, the first thing that catches their eyes is a not small ten-story building, which is a place to recruit workers, that is, the so-called place to hire people, next to this building, there is a warehouse.

These warehouses are mainly stocked with tradable materials, and even cars are bought here, which of course costs a lot of money.

Behind this row of warehouses, there is a long street that looks like an existence, but this long street is not selling department store sundries, but people! Yes, this is the legendary slave market, where the three places are next to each other.

Although He Mei really wanted to go and see it now, Qiu Kai didn't think so, they went to the place where they sold things first, and bought two tons of grain, after all, there must be about twenty people in the family, just as each person has to eat two catties of grain every day, Qiu Kai will not let others be hungry.

That day is 40 catties, 20 kilograms, five days is 100 kilograms, 50 days is 1 ton, there is no food in the house, so how can it be done? At least three months of food.

In addition to food, there are also vegetables and meat, Qiu Kai took out 200 catties of gold to buy these things, and the result was that the money he bought back seemed to be only enough to eat for three months, after all, Qiu Kai was a big job, and the other party was for delivery, except for food, it was to buy a car. (To be continued......)
