Chapter Twenty-Four: Boyi Field (Part II)
Li Sanjian is 14 years old this year, he is neither tall nor short, his appearance is delicate, and his body looks slightly thin.
Li Sanjian stood in the wind and shouted, his clothes were blown slowly by the breeze, his posture was extremely chic, the most important thing was that Li Sanjian pulled out his sword to help when he saw injustice, and there seemed to be a faint righteousness between heaven and earth behind him.
"How dare you insult such a poor man in broad daylight? It's just a kingless law, and it's extremely bold. Li Sanjian shouted.
Li Sanjian got up and shouted angrily, and all the tooth people were stunned, looking at Li Sanjian blankly for a while, and no one spoke.
"That fucking belt isn't fastened and you're leaking out?" After half a ring, the leader of the tooth man glared at Li Sanjian viciously and scolded: "Pickled boy, do you know who this person is? Fighting? If you are uneven, you don't weigh how many pounds and taels you have? ”
"No matter who he is, you shouldn't bully him like this, you can't be humiliated, you can't be humiliated, you are so forcibly plundering people, is there really no royal law in my Great Song Dynasty?" The unclean words of the leader of the tooth people have humiliated Li Sanjian's mother, and Li Sanjian is also furious in his heart, but Li Sanjian still said calmly and did not scold him.
Li Sanjian can only be like this, he is lonely, not to mention so many tooth people, just one of them is right with himself, and it is estimated that he will also suffer a big loss.
"Wang Fa?" Hearing this, the tooth people couldn't help but have a sneering look on their faces.
"Which royal law doesn't allow me to wait like this?" The Tooth Man Leader then sneered.
The Song Dynasty did not allow people to be forcibly sold or enticed into slavery, and those who wanted to be enslaved had to obtain the consent of the government and themselves.
But in the wild land of Lingnan, who can take care of a lot? Who will take Song Xingtong in his eyes?
Qinzhou is close to Dali, Jiaozhi and other places, and is a remote place. Many of the people who were plundered as slaves in this place were people from Dali or Jiaozhi and other places, and they were foreigners, so the government would not interfere, and basically turned a blind eye.
Even many officials themselves are themselves tooth people, personally participating in the plundering of human beings.
Qinzhou Boyi Field was built by the Song government, and as long as the tooth people paid the gang money, they were at their own convenience.
The most important thing is that the tooth people have already bribed the people of the official government in the Boyi field, so no one is involved in this matter at this time.
Not only did the people of the government participate in the plundering of the population, but also the bureaucrats, scholars, doctors, ordinary people, monasteries, and Taoist temples all have the habit of keeping slaves, and they are proud of it, and even the Song Emperor will keep slaves...
Although the Song Dynasty prohibits the temptation and enticment of people as slaves, the phenomenon of plundering and selling people has been repeatedly prohibited, especially in remote places such as Sichuan, Shu, Lingnan, and other remote places, and this phenomenon is even more serious.
Li Sanjian was so indignant that he spoke out to stop the bullying and beating of the slaves, and planned to make a big deal about it, so as to attract the attention of the people in the government.
However, at present, it seems that Li Sanjian's idea has failed, and so far, no official from the Boyi Field has come to pay attention to this matter, and the officials are far away.
"Lock him up." Seeing that Li Sanjian was speechless, the leader of the tooth people glared at Li Sanjian fiercely and ordered his subordinates.
The leader of the tooth people saw that Li Sanjian was not dressed as a Han person, so he didn't want to make a big deal about it, in case Li Sanjian was the son of a certain lord, wouldn't it be bad?
More things are better than less, harmony can make money, and the tooth people can't make trouble with Li Sanjian, thus delaying the plan to make money.
When the people heard this, they ordered the strong man to leave, and the strong man resisted strongly and refused to leave, so the people of the teeth wrapped iron chains around the limbs of the strong man, and seven or eight people dragged the strong man away.
The shabby clothes on the strong man's body were quickly dragged into pieces, and the skin touched the ground, dragging out blood marks one after another, and the strong man looked at Li Sanjian in despair, and made a uh-uh-uh sound in his mouth.
Previously, Li Sanjian angrily reprimanded the tooth people, which made a glimmer of hope in the hearts of the strong man, but now he is becoming more and more desperate.
The strong man knew in his heart that these people were bought back as human sacrifices.
The so-called human sacrifice, also known as killing people and sacrificing ghosts, is prevalent in Chuanxia, Lingnan, Yongguan, Guangnan East and West Roads and other places, sacrificing and selecting remote evil people, lowly or people who are regarded as monsters, killing and sacrificing ghosts and gods, in order to achieve the wish of the heart or a certain purpose, and the strong man is in this list.
"Wait!" Li Sanjian couldn't bear to be tortured by the strong man, and he really couldn't stand the helpless eyes of the strong man, at this time Li Sanjian couldn't take care of it much, so he said loudly.
"Huh? What do you want to do? The leader of the tooth people asked angrily, and the hearts of the people of the tooth people were also a little angry at this time, they didn't expect Li Sanjian to be so difficult, if Li Sanjian was still so entangled, they wouldn't be able to take care of it much.
Capture Li Sanjian and sell him as a slave, maybe he can sell it for a good price, many people think so in their hearts.
Li Sanjian hesitated for a moment and then said loudly: "Since that's the case, I'll buy this person... “
"Hahahaha" After hearing this, the tooth people were stunned for a while, and then laughed out loud together.
"Haha, Xiao Langjun, do you want to buy this person? Do you know how much he's worth? Can you afford it? DID YOU KNOW ... ”
Just as the leader of the tooth man was chattering about Li Sanjian, Li Sanjian took out two gold leaves from his arms and shook them lightly in front of the leader of the tooth man.
The golden gold looked unusually dazzling in the sunlight, shaking the toothed people dizzy.
Many of them were not wealthy, and some had never seen gold in their lives...
The leader of the tooth man swallowed his saliva, and his hands did not obey the call and wanted to snatch the gold leaf from Li Sanjian's hand.
Li Sanjian dodged the leader of the tooth man contemptuously, and asked with a chuckle, "Can you afford to buy it?" ”
"Ouch, Yanei, can afford it, can afford it, enough is enough, enough is enough, how about this deal?" The leader of the tooth people replied hurriedly.
You can afford to buy ten, the leader of the tooth man said secretly in his heart, but the leader of the tooth man is unwilling to say this, let Li Sanjian know.
"Plus her..." Li Sanjian then pointed to the little girl who had just prayed for food and said.
Although Li Sanjian did not understand the price of gold and the price of slaves, Li Sanjian understood the preciousness of gold, and it was estimated that it was enough to buy two people.
Li Sanjian took out the gold leaf at this time, which has brought countless dangers to himself, and Li Sanjian will be extremely dangerous in the future, but Li Sanjian can't take care of it anymore.
Li Sanjian couldn't bear to let them suffer from this, so he bought them and let them be free, as for the danger in the future, Li Sanjian would find a way.
"The deal, Xiao Yanei is generous, and the slave family obeys the order." The tooth woman who sold the little girl hurriedly agreed when she heard this.
Li Sanjian didn't understand the price of the slave, but Ya Po couldn't be clearer, if he shared these two gold leaves with the strong man, it would also be a very good profit.
"How are you?" Li Sanjian then asked the leader of the tooth people.
"Brother, how do you explain so Hu Yuanwai?" Before the leader of the tooth man could answer, one of the tooth men on the side asked.
The leader of the tooth man ignored it, glared at the tooth woman hatefully and said, "Deal." ”
Li Sanjian's price is much higher than that of Hu Yuanwai, of course the leader of the tooth people is willing to do Li Sanjian's deal, as for how Hu Yuanwai will explain there, it's a big deal to get two more for him, the leader of the tooth people said secretly in his heart.
Li Sanjian nodded when he heard this, stretched out his hand to take the little girl out of the iron cage and said to the leader of the tooth people: "Let people go, the gold is yours." ”
Hearing this, the leader of the tooth people waved his hand and asked his men to lead the strong man over.
"Wait!" When the two sides were about to make a deal, suddenly the crowd shouted.
Li Sanjian looked back in amazement and saw a young man walking out of the crowd.
"Brother Shuxing, is that you?" Li Sanjian then asked in surprise.
This person is not Yao Yu, who is it?
Yao Yu smiled and waved his hand at Li Sanjian, and then said to the leader of the tooth people: "A piece of gold leaf is enough to weigh two taels, which can be exchanged for twenty yuan, and two gold leaves can be exchanged for forty yuan, that is, forty thousand yuan... ”
Oops, at this point, the leader of the Tooth Man secretly said something bad in his heart.
"And how much a slave is worth, do you need to say?" Yao Yu continued: "You are so deceived and deceived, it is intolerable. ”
"Brother Shuxing, forget it, so be it." Li Sanjian said to Yao Yu when he heard this.
As soon as Yao Yu said this, Li Sanjian also understood the price of gold, it turned out that one or two pieces of gold could be exchanged for about ten copper coins, although Yao Yu did not say the price of a slave, but Li Sanjian also understood that the price of an ordinary slave must be extremely cheap.
But the gold leaf has already been shot, and it is even more impossible for Li Sanjian to get it back, and if he gets it back, Li Sanjian will be even more dangerous.
"Okay," Yao Yu said to the leader of the Yaren and the Ya Po: "Since my brother has spoken, why don't you hurry up and prepare the deed and make a certificate?" ”
When the leader of the tooth people heard this, his heart was suddenly depressed, they bullied Li Sanjian for not understanding the rules of buying and selling people, and planned to give him people first, and then report to the official to bring them back.
You must know that without a deed, you can't make a bond, you can't get the approval of the government, and Li Sanjian is going to suffer a dumb loss, but who knows that he will bite the gold halfway, and he actually exposed the matter.
"Pocai... The leader of the tooth man was so angry that he scolded: "You... Ouch. ”
Before the tooth man leader could finish speaking, Yao Yu jumped up, kicked his feet twice, and kicked the tooth man leader, who weighed more than 150 pounds, out two feet away, spitting blood from his mouth and falling into the dust.
"Thieves, pickled brutes." Yao Yu stepped on the chest of the leader of the tooth people with one foot and shouted: "If you dare to say disrespectful words, what does it matter if I take your life today, master?" ”
All the teeth looked at all this in amazement, and they didn't dare to step forward to make a move.
Yao Yu showed his skills slightly, and everyone saw that this person must be a person with strong kung fu, and the most important thing is that Yao Yu is dressed as a Han person, maybe it is the son of a family, so it is not something they can provoke.
"The king is here."
"The little ones meet the minister."
At this time, the Song officials in the Boyi field finally appeared...
