According to the records of "Juyan Han Jian", in the Western Han Dynasty, a small slave was worth 15,000 yuan, and a big maid was worth 20,000 yuan.

Han Yan only spent 10,000 yuan to buy this Hu slave, which is also cheap and affordable, looking at the appearance of a dragon and a tiger, five big and three coarse, sixteen people can catch it back, and it is also a bit capable of thinking about it, and it is worth the money.

The little official will not hand over this money to the government, and will probably give some filial piety to the superiors, and then share it equally with the brothers as the income of the year-end bonus.

Han Yan was too lazy to pay attention to these, when the water was clear, there were no fish, and it was himself who benefited, so he gave the little official an extra golden pill, and looked at his upside-down appearance, eager to lick it. It's no wonder that the emperor likes the ministers, it's really comfortable to be patted on the back.

took the deed issued by the clerk, even if the transaction was completed, it was marked in detail how the Hu slaves came from.

The little official attributed the credit for the capture of the Hu people to the Gong Gaohou Mansion, so this slave was bought cheaply by Han Yan and not given to the government, so that their relationship could be discarded.

As for the degree of cheapness, the little official looked at Yan Shizi with a blank eye......

"Just write three thousand dollars." Han Yan thought for a while and said.

Seven thousand dollars left should be enough for you to share.

As a result, as soon as the words fell, Hu Ren, who had just been whipped, struggled violently again, his eyebrows were angry, his teeth and claws were shaking, and he roared with red eyes: "You deceive people too much." ”

The meaning of that sentence is that slaves also have personalities, and if others ask for 20,000 yuan, I am only worth 3,000 yuan?

Han Yan was startled by this roar, he didn't react, he was stunned, his ears buzzed non-stop, and then he lost his hearing for a short time, only to feel that there was silence all around, and slowly the sound of wind and breathing poured into his eardrums, and his hearing was restored.

The voice is really high, the roof is shaking, if this is higher, the eardrums will be roared, it is said that Zhang Fei can drink Dangyang Bridge, Han Yan is a little convinced.

The little official was also stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that Hu Ren was struggling, evil was born to the side of the guts, his face was a little hideous, he picked up the whip and went up to beat again, the thief and his mother, they have become slaves, and they dare to be so rampant?

Han Yan stopped him and deliberately shouted: "The value of such a fierce and vicious little slave is too low, just write a thousand dollars." ”

The little official was overjoyed, threw the leather whip, picked up the knife and pen and engraved it, and was afraid that Han Yan would change his hexagram.

When Hu Ren heard this, he almost fainted, gritted his teeth, and wanted to devour people, eager to eat the flesh of these two people......

The guards of the Hou Mansion came quickly, tied up the Hu people, and then used a thick wooden stick through their bound hands and feet, and the four guards carried the wooden sticks and carried the people away like dead pigs.

With his first slave, Han Yan was in a good mood and smiled.

The ancients probably only regarded buying slaves as a very normal thing, and they didn't have any feelings in their hearts. But Han Yan is the soul of modern people, thinking that everyone is equal, but he is the master of others, I have to do whatever I ask you to do, obedience is your only way out, my will is your life standard, that vanity and superiority are simply indescribable.

When the officials saw that Han Yan had bought the slave, Huangya almost laughed, and they came up to congratulate him, and everyone would get a share of the extra money.

When he left the market, Han Yan and the mayor of the market were talking casually, and found that a few children in shabby linen clothes were hiding from a distance to watch him, with eager and timid eyes, like a cat that had been hungry for a few days watching humans and wanted to eat.

Han said that he often took a slingshot to shoot gold pills in the city, and he didn't take it back after the fight, and returned it to these children. Han Yan thought about it, and suddenly felt ashamed, a golden pill that was dispensable to himself was enough to change the fate of these children's families.

You must know that most of those who sell themselves as slaves are because they can't afford to pay taxes of a few hundred yuan, and then sell themselves for 20,000 yuan in exchange for their families' food and clothing, and then they will be slaves and servants for the rest of their lives, at the mercy of beating and scolding.

Thinking of this, Han Yan couldn't help but feel sentimental, took out a few gold pills from the middle of his collar and threw them at the children, and instructed the mayor: "Help me watch, no one is allowed to rob them." ”

"Whoa." The mayor was deeply envious, but he did not dare to disobey Han Yan's order. We work so hard to catch a slave, and we don't earn as much as the children pretend to be pitiful......

Back to the Gonggaohou Mansion, the Spring Festival is coming, the servants are busy, driving the ladder to hang a wooden sign on the door of the house, the peach wood plate is engraved with Yu Lei and Shen Tu two door gods, it is said that hanging these two can eliminate disasters and avoid disasters, seek good fortune and avoid evil.

The ancients believed in ghosts and gods is not understandable to modern people, from ancient times to the present, emperors have to make some fairy and ghost stories, to increase the recognition of the people, even Liu Che is no exception, according to the folk, his mother Wang Wan is a dream of the people of the day of the birth of him, before the emperor first to get out the fairy theory, Wang Wan is not simple.

There is a dungeon in the Hou Mansion, which is used to store food and imprison slaves and maids who have made mistakes, but Han Yan has not seen anyone imprisoned in the past few months since he came back, but today it came in handy.

From afar, you can hear the roaring and angry scolding from the ground, and the Chinese dialect is mixed with the Xiongnu language, which is ridiculous.

The dungeon is dark, a damp breath hits the face, and the wrist-thick cast iron is cast into a cell, as long as you are locked in, no matter how strong you are, it will not help.

The enemy is very red when he meets, and the Hu people are merciless.

"You're a turtle ...... you're a whirlpool"

Han Yan, who was originally smiling, suddenly froze, his face twitched, and his self-esteem was a little damaged by this scolding, Lao Tzu regarded you as a normal person, and he didn't think about enslaving you, don't be ashamed.

In the corner of the dungeon wall, the mottled bronze candlestick is quietly lit with red candles, the candle wax gurgles downward, and the faint red light is reflected in the dungeon, accompanied by bleakness and depression.

"If you dare to speak disrespectfully, I will let you take turns to suffer it."

The cold, blade-like voice was still a little immature, echoing in the dungeon, like a young demon from hell standing on a high platform, overlooking the human slaves, and the Hu people's scolding came to an abrupt end.

The prison was quiet, the air seemed to be frozen, and Han Yan was angry for the first time after crossing over, finally revealing those things that were affected by this era.

It is a good character to get out of the mud without being stained, but not everyone can do it, Han Yan was a small ordinary person before he was reborn, he has been in the society for many years, he has never seen that kind of person who is muddy but not stained, and he does not have such a good quality.

The cruelty, dignity and humility of the Han Dynasty, Han Yan has a deep understanding that in this era, the concept of equality does not work, and the emperor's rule over the people is the real state, only by integrating into it and gradually changing what he can influence with his meager strength, can he survive peacefully.

In this process, it is still necessary to use the rules of this era to do things.

If you don't know the rules, I'll teach you.

If it weren't for the purpose of subduing you, Lao Tzu would tear your stinky mouth apart first, Han Yan thought so, so he said: "I don't want to torture you, and I don't want to humiliate you, if you have resentment in your heart, it's better to think about your own mistakes, what caused you to fall to this point today?" ”

"I bought you back because I wanted you to create value for me, and if you are not convinced, I can resell you to see if others will be as kind as I am to you."

"Regarding the question that you want to escape, I advise you not to think about it, if there is no messenger and identity certificate in Dahan, even if I let you go now, you will be locked in a dungeon by others at another point in time, unless you hide in the deep mountains and old forests for the rest of your life to live a savage life."

"As for why you came to Gonggaohou Country, I guess it's probably because you're hungry, or you look at Gonggaohou Elementary School, you're not well prepared, and you want to go into the city to find delicious food?"

"Hmm...... Or maybe you can't stand this dirty and messy outfit and want to find a clean clothes to change into? Han Yan looked at it, chattering loudly.

"Actually, there are a lot of scattered people outside the city, and if you rob them, you should be able to find food and clothing, but you don't do it, either because you are kind-hearted, or you are too arrogant, and you don't look down on their things, and you want to wear silk and eat beef?"

When Han Yan said this, Hu Ren's hands clenched tightly when he grabbed the pig iron prison door, and his eyes fluctuated slightly.

Nomads obviously don't have such deep scheming, and most of their personalities are straightforward and reckless, and one side raises the other, and the one in front of him is no exception.

"Don't be nervous, I won't kill you, and I won't ask your roots, because I also have Hu blood, and we are also related." After a pause, he looked directly at Hu Ren and said: "But my money can't be spent in vain, you have to be worthy of my investment this time, look at your stout appearance and ability to be beaten, just be a bodyguard for me, for five years, I will give you the document to release the slave and let you go." ”

After thinking about it, he added: "During this period, I will not enslave you, you will eat whatever I eat, and I will be treated the same as me, we are the heirs of the princes, donkey meat in the sky and fish meat in the ground are indispensable, and I will pay you wages on time, so that you have the money to go out and have a good time, how about it?" ”

is so good to the Hu people, Han Yan has also thought it through, he wants to find someone to be "equal" with him, and always remind himself not to be too corrupt, don't really accept this noble and lowly society, otherwise what is the difference between himself and the native Han people?

It's good to keep something different, people have to persevere so that they don't lose themselves, so I'll just name it "innocence".

Keeping in mind the teachings of the motherland is the mission of every Chinese.

By the time Han Yan finished chattering, Hu Ren's gaze was already a little cloudy and trance-like, obviously tempting.

There are also slaves in the Xiongnu steppe, and they are not as good as the slaves of the Han Dynasty, at least the Han Emperor issued an edict that it is not allowed to abuse slaves, and it is not allowed to kill slaves for no reason, and violators must be held accountable.

And on the prairie, there is no "etiquette" of the Han people, the strong eat fat, the old eat the rest, the noble and strong, the old and the weak, the master kills the slave as long as one thought, there is no need for any reason, the weak and the strong are the nature, how can they put forward such generous conditions like the young man in front of him, I have never thought about it in my dreams......

At present, there are only two ways out, hiding in the mountains for the rest of their lives, or being captured as a slave and changing their masters, do they have this young man?

The Hu people were deeply worried, and they were sad that they were about to become slaves of others. In a short period of time, the gap was too big for him to accept.

Just when his face was cloudy, Han Yan spoke at the right time.

"I don't know your name yet, and I don't want to know, if you agree to follow me for five years, you will have the same surname as me in the future, my surname is Han, my name is Han Yan, as for you, ......"

Han Yan pondered for a moment, looked at Hu Ren's strong body, and said on a whim: "With your personality and body type, I think a name is very suitable for you...... Han Erdan. ”
