Chapter 108 The turbid waves are surging

Guo Xie quietly came to the Yun clan, handed Yun Lang a scroll, and after opening it and reading it, Yun Lang was silent for a long time.

"Six thousand seven hundred, so many?"

Guo Xie nodded and said: "This is only the first batch, there are three more batches behind, the disabled, the sick, the old and weak have all been killed, and the last batch is all children." ”

"How can there be so many?"

In order to prevent these slaves from connecting in series, one was sent to Chang'an, one was sent to Luoyang, and one was sent to Shuzhong, and there were many mines in Jiezhou, and the government asked for 4,100 people at a time, and it was also scheduled for next year's 10% share.

The humble position has selected some honest, strong, and family-related slaves on the sub-book, if the marquis needs to ......"

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "The Yun clan doesn't want alien slaves, not one. ”

Guo Xie said with a smile: "The Yiqu people are vulgar, the Hou Ye doesn't want it, Xianbei, Fuyu, and the cautious slaves are mostly docile, and they have all lived in Youbeiping for many years, and they have long been no different from my Han people. ”

Yun Lang looked at Guo Xie and continued to shake his head and said, "The Yun clan doesn't want slaves, it hurts Tianhe." “

Guo Xie laughed self-deprecatingly and said: "The people of Xianbei, Fuyu, and Su Shen are actually not captured by us, they came to Guanzhong voluntarily. ”

Yun Lang smiled, poured a cup of tea for Guo Xie and said: "Youzhou Taishou, General Beiping, they are all in the north, the most terrible thing is that their family has purchased a large amount of land in Shanglinyuan, if those Xianbei, Fuyu, and Sushen people don't come to Chang'an, what should they do with their land?"

Guo Jie, I don't actually have any opinion on your slave trade, the reason why the Yun clan doesn't use alien slaves is because of my personal reasons.

The Yun family is having a good time now, since it is good, it is better to continue like this, there is no need to take shortcuts.

Go ahead, go about your business, the slave thing, it won't work in the Yun Clan, and I don't like it either. ”

Guo Xie agreed again and again, dragged a wooden box from behind him, patted it on it, and got up to say goodbye.

Yun Lang ordered the kitchen to pack two food boxes for Guo Jie, which were stuffed with Yun's unique food, Guo Xie personally carried the food boxes and left Yun's with a smile.

As soon as Guo Xie left, Su Zhi came out from behind the curtain like a mouse, quickly opened the wooden box, took a look, and found that there were neatly arranged gold ingots inside, and his face suddenly collapsed.

"Why gold again? I want a few gemstones to set with jewelry. ”

Yun Lang slapped her pouting ass and said, "Jin is still not satisfied? ”

Su Zhi took two gold ingots and smiled at Yun Lang: "I'll take the gold ingots to exchange gems with the Niu family, don't let my senior sister find out." ”

Yun Lang smiled bitterly: "If you want to take it, take one layer, take two What's the matter, do you think your senior sister will believe that Guo Xie is just missing these two gold ingots?" ”

Su Zhi looked at the two gold ingots in his hand, shook his head decisively and said, "Don't take it, Niu's gems are very expensive, I just want this, and the family can't suffer too much." ”

I don't know if this girl is smart or stupid, in short, when Song Qiao saw that there were two gold ingots missing from the wooden box, he immediately knew that Su Zhi had taken it and ran away.

"Husband, you spoil that girl too much, it's time to set rules at home, she has a share, and there are a lot of them, enough for her to spend, the reason why she takes gold in front of you is pure nonsense, and you still connive at her."

"Okay, the last time you whipped her, you already beat her very badly, what can she do with a little money? It's nothing more than buying a few gemstones to make some jewelry, and what else does she have to spend money on?

Besides, this box of gold, I feel uncomfortable looking at it, if I don't accept it, God knows what Guo Xie will think, in short, it is better to spend this money as soon as possible, I am afraid that there will be a smell of blood on it. ”

When Song Qiao heard her husband say this, she immediately became vigilant, closed the box and said, "Is there a problem with this money?" ”

Yun Lang shook his head and said: "There is no problem, it is purely from buying and selling, the problem is that this money is obtained from the slave trade, so I don't like it very much." ”

"Oh, that's right, when the concubine was in the infirmary, I heard from the women that now was a good time to buy slaves.

In the Great River Valley, he destroyed the Yiqu and captured a lot of slaves, and now, the price of slaves is cheap, and many families are buying them.

According to the women, the slave traders did not like to buy slaves one by one, and they sold at least fifty slaves.

They are all going to buy a few together, and then divide them when they come back. ”

Yun Lang was silent, and Song Qiao continued: "The men of the Great Han Kingdom have all gone to the battlefield, and the family still needs some slaves to do some heavy work.

There is no way to do it, and there is no right or wrong. “

Song Qiao's remarks made Yun Lang very surprised, he didn't expect Song Qiao to have such a realistic view of the cruel slavery system.

"It's better than letting women and children stay in the country and go hungry......

The concubine used to think that as long as she was a human being, she should be treated well, but unfortunately, when the concubine was treating those poor people in the hospital, she found that life was not so simple. ”

"I remember you weren't like that before."

Song Qiao touched his bulging belly and said: "The child is about to come to this world, I don't dare to be willful anymore, I can't live in a daze, I must see the world clearly, so that I can have children."

However, our family is very good, so we use people who are pleasing to the eye to give them some advantage to take advantage of, and it is natural to close the door and see it. ”

Yun Lang has nothing to say, the woman before marriage can be a fairy in the sky, not eating the fireworks of the world, the woman after marriage will generally become the most staunch defender in the world, when the woman after giving birth to a child, when she begins to see the world with her own eyes, the world is generally not as good as originally imagined, and therefore, it will become more practical, a little less weak, a little more strong.

Such a change is a natural one.

After the wheat harvest, Chang'an has entered the rainy time, this time of year is the time when the Weishui rises sharply, the river with clear water flow on weekdays, at this time it will become turbidity and rolling, and the Jing River not far away is clear and clear, thus giving rise to a famous idiom called - Jing Wei Ming.

At this time, Yun Lang really wanted to make a division with the nobles of Chang'an, so as to achieve the purpose of clear distinction.

When the slaves entered Beijing, it became a feast of human flesh for the nobles.

More than 6,700 slaves, standing in the pouring rain, were selected by the nobles, and all of them became wild beasts at this moment.

Zhang Tang was the leader of this feast, returned to the shed, took off his coat, threw off his mud-covered boots, went to the brazier to roast the fire, snatched a cup of hot tea from Yun Lang's hand and drank it all, and then patted his wet clothes and said: "The pomp and circumstance is unprecedented, Yunhou, in less than two hours, all six thousand seven hundred and thirty-five slaves have been sold." ”

After that, he sneezed heavily.

Yun Lang glanced at the black ghost-like slaves outside the shed, and sighed, "Be careful of the plague!" ”

Zhang Tang shook his head and said: "These slaves are all slaves who entered Beijing, and if there is a slight mistake on the road, they have been disposed of by the slave traders." ”

After speaking, he stood barefoot on the wheat straw, crossed his waist and looked at the slave outside the shed, and said, "Thirty million dollars!" ”

Cao Xiang also looked at the slaves standing in the rain waiting to be taken away by their masters in a daze, and was taken aback by Zhang Tang's words.

Keeping his eyes on Zhang Tang, he said, "Impossible, right?" 30 million cloud money? ”

Zhang Tang looked up to the sky and laughed.

"These slaves are naturally not worth the money, but don't forget, in three days, the imperial court issued 300 slave capture permits, and these 300 slave capture permits were sold for 30 million cloud money.

When each slave is sold, the imperial court will also charge a tax of ten cloud coins, which is not a small amount, but it is a long-term business. ”

"So much?" Cao Xiang was surprised.

At this moment, the slave herd began to stir, and the cries began to appear from occasional times, and gradually joined together, and finally the cries shook the sky.

The nobles began to divide the slaves......

Yun Lang, Cao Xiang got into the Yun clan's carriage and left this place.

Cao Xiang saw that Yun Lang didn't speak for a long time, so he asked, "Do you regret it?" With your name as my brother, it's not too late to insert it. ”

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "Be careful, don't send your family out these days, close the manor, and talk about it after a month." ”

"Why?"

"Plague!"
