"How much?"

Just when a group of onlookers were coaxing, Shen Xi suddenly asked loudly, and suddenly everyone's eyes gathered.

"That's a good question...... Ladies and gentlemen, you look at these three women, they can not only work when they are bought, but also be able to be mothers-in-law and aunts, which is absolutely cost-effective. The road was bumpy, I originally planned to take them to Hangzhou to sell, but I really didn't want to leave when I arrived at your land, so I simply sold cheaper, and packed ten taels of silver and took them away. ”

When Ren Yazi said "ten taels of silver", the crowd let out a sigh, this price is too expensive for the vast majority of the onlookers.

Ordinary people, who work hard every year to support a family, it is not easy to save a few hundred dollars a year, who will spend a huge amount of ten taels of silver to buy three women of different races back?

Shen Xi pursed his lips disdainfully: "Now it's only ten taels of silver to buy a maid from a serious family, your people are all trading without capital, and there will be a great risk for people to buy it back, and it's too expensive to sell ten taels of silver, right?" ”

As soon as Shen Xi said this, the man was a little surprised, and said, "The little brother is young, but he understands a lot...... What, do you intend to buy? ”

Shen Xi touched the five taels of silver that Hui Niang gave him in his arms, and felt a little confident in his heart.

He didn't want to be in the limelight as a savior, but he had been influenced by ethnic equality for a long time in his previous life, and there were many Miao people among the students he taught.

Why not buy people to save them from danger and avoid bloodshed?

"Two taels of silver, three people, do you sell it?" Shen Xi bargained loudly.

The human tooth took a sip. Waving his hand: "Children's family, don't make a mess...... In this way, who wants to buy it. Just when I suffered a loss, I sold it for three taels of silver. You buy them separately, and you are not afraid to take them back and cause trouble. ”

Shen Xi really got on the bar with him, strode forward, and said sharply: "Two taels of silver for adults and one tael for children." Look at this little girl, with thin arms and thin legs, you can't let her have a price with adults, right? ”

The man was speechless: "Little brother, you have spoken up again and again." Do you really want to buy it? ”

Shen Xi took out the silver from his arms and tossed it in his hand under the surprised eyes of everyone: "Do you think I'm here to make trouble?" ”

The man's teeth were like a drunkard, and when he saw Xianyin, his eyes opened wide, and then he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He thought about it carefully, and finally nodded heavily: "It's okay, it's cheaper, it's cheaper, in short, it's light!" The person is now yours, and you can take them away at any time. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab the silver in Shen Xi's hand.

Shen Xi retracted his hand: "Hey." This uncle, you bully my little child and don't understand anything, do you? Since you take people from the army and resell them. There's always something to stand for, right? Otherwise, if I take the person back, and you take the person deed to the government to file a complaint, won't the person be yours again? ”

"Hehe, you little guy, you really know everything." Ren Yazi reluctantly took the human deed out of his arms. As a paper contract signed at the time of human trafficking, the human deed is an important document for human trafficking, and there are documents to confirm the transfer of identity and belonging.

Ren Yazi handed it to Shen Xi along with the human deed and the shackle key, "The iron shackles are sent to you, these three women are very wild." You see they bit me ......," he said, rolling up his sleeves to reveal the scar on it that had been bitten out by his teeth, "after the person handed it over to you." Life and death are fate, but don't think about going back. ”

Shen Xicai was not interested in buying someone and returning it to him. He didn't know what the relationship between the guy with the tattoo on his face in the crowd was with these three women, but he expected that he had come to the rescue on purpose, and when the time came, he would stuff the deed into the hands of the three women and let them "fend for themselves", and the man would naturally appear and take away the three women, and it would be none of his business in the future.

"Good. You are happy and I am also happy, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. ”

Shen Xi finally threw the silver over, the man was used to trading, and he didn't weigh it, just weighing it with his hands, he knew the fineness and catties of silver.

To buy and sell human beings, it is not enough to have a human contract, but also to make a formal official contract.

Renyazi found the official tooth of the Luoma City as the middleman, and the buyer and seller signed and pledged. Now the deed of the three women is in Shen Xi's hands, and the transfer deed will officially belong to him after the contract is signed.

The hands of the two adult women were chained with iron chains, which were connected together and tied with a hemp rope, and the man handed the hemp rope to Shen Xi, and Shen Xi could take the three women home like an animal. In this way, the Miao girls sold by the semi-government have a very low social status, and they do not have to bear any responsibility even if the owner is injured or killed.

Shen Xi pulled the three women to the gate of the mule and horse market, and when the people saw that there was no excitement to see, they suddenly dispersed, but there were still people following behind, pointing along the way.

The two adult women were a little afraid of Shen Xi, especially the older one, and she could only hold her daughter's hand tightly...... She is not worried about herself, but about her daughter's future fate.

Su Tong shouted at people to come over to see a strange thing, but he didn't expect that Shen Xi, who was traveling with him, would buy the three Miao girls, and immediately followed behind with a smile, and asked: "Brother Shen, you are really generous, spend five taels of silver to buy three barbarian women back, what are you doing?" ”

At this time, he had already gone out of the door and came to the outside of the Luoma Market, Shen Xi looked back, and did not see the mysterious man following just now, thinking to himself, could it be that he guessed wrong, that man has nothing to do with them?

"Our family is short of labor, can't we buy it back as livestock?" Shen Xi replied casually.

Su Tong smiled, his face full of ambiguous smiles: "Of course, you can not only work, but also warm the bed, and you can do it in one fell swoop." But you have to be careful, this brute woman is not easy to control, don't wait for the night while your family is asleep, a fire burns down the house, and it is too late to cry...... Oh yes, is today's meeting going on? ”

"You have also seen it, it is inconvenient to have people around, let's get together another day!"

Shen Xi smiled, he had to get rid of these three women quickly, if he really brought the women home like this, it wouldn't work at all, the pharmacy was so big, how should these three women be placed? What's more, he didn't want the Zhou family and Hui Niang to know that he was spending money outside indiscriminately.

Shen Xi arched his hand: "Brother Su, say goodbye." ”

Su Tong returned the salute with a smile, and asked if he needed his help to send Miao Nu back to Shen Xi's house, but Shen Xi dared to agree, but he planned to send the three women away on the way, so he thanked him again and said that he didn't need to.

After saying goodbye to Su Tong and other scholars, Shen Xi pulled the three women to the west of the city, picking the streets, he didn't dare to walk those small streets and alleys, mainly in case the mysterious man suddenly rushed out, it was nothing to snatch people, if he hurt himself, it would be purely good intentions to do bad things.

The two adult women with the little girl were very cooperative, and probably they also felt that it was much better to follow a child of about ten years old than in the hands of the alcoholic Yazi.

This Tingzhou Mansion is one of the few big cities around Lingnan, and the streets are crowded with people, and they are a little afraid of life, so they can only let Shen Xi lead them like cattle.

Shen Xi pulled three women dressed as interracial people, who looked a little nondescript, and there were onlookers along the way, and some even came up to joke about "sell or not".

Shen Xi didn't care about the strange eyes of passers-by, and just walked forward. It wasn't until he approached the door that he panicked. He looked around, but there was no sign of the man.

Shen Xi frowned, he didn't want to take the three women home, maybe it would attract a scolding from the old lady at that time, and the five taels of silver would be exchanged for almost a year's income of the family in the past, and it would be in vain, and anyone would feel distressed. But if the man didn't show up, he didn't know how to settle down.

"You ......"

Shen Xi stopped, and was just about to speak, when he remembered that he didn't understand the language. In the previous life, the Miao people basically spoke Mandarin, and there was no barrier to communication. Fortunately, he had traveled to the Baimiao village in Guizhou, and the Miao students in his class occasionally spoke a few words of local dialect, although he was not very proficient in the Miao language, but he could use a few simple everyday words, "Where are you from?" ”

Shen Xi expected that the Miao people would continue from generation to generation, and they would still be using their own language hundreds of years later, so it should be almost inseparable at this time, right?

When the two adult women heard this, their faces were shocked, and the older woman was slightly excited, and she muttered a lot, but Shen Xi didn't understand it at all. Finally, the older woman asked in non-standard Chinese, "You...... Will say, our words? ”

"Only a little."

Shen Xi originally thought that the three women couldn't understand Chinese, and just now they said to Su Tong that they would buy them back as cattle envoys, but they had a little fever on their faces at the moment, and scratched their heads embarrassedly, "Since you can speak Chinese, it's easy to do." I just see you as pitiful, and I don't have any bad intentions, if I let you go, will you have a way to get out of here? ”

The two grown women looked at each other, not expecting such a bizarre turn in their fate, and finally the older woman shook her head in frustration.

Shen Xiyou looked around, continued to look for the trace of the strange man, and after a while, there was still no gain, and he could only sigh helplessly: "Then things are a little difficult to handle, bring you back, I can't support you." Besides, you are still Miao people......"

The older woman hurriedly distinguished: "We Miao people know how to be grateful the most, you help us...... We won't be bad for you, we can do the work, just have something to eat, please ...... Be kind to my daughter. ”

The woman was in a hurry, her Chinese was fast and non-standard, and Shen Xi barely understood what it meant.

"Okay then."

Shen Xi thought about it, he couldn't take them to the pharmacy, but it should be okay to go to Yinhao and the main hall of the Chamber of Commerce to tell Hui Niang about it.

Let Hui Niang help settle them, change them into Han clothes, and work as female workers in pharmaceutical factories and printing workshops. Later generations of Miao girls are famous for their ingenuity, and what to teach them should be learned as soon as they are taught.
