1040 Korean slaves bought

"Rush." The soldiers of the Zhao army who followed closely behind quickly rushed up. They approached a certain distance and quickly threw grenades in their hands. Zhao Jun's grenades continued to explode in the Qi army's position, and the Qi army couldn't withstand the opponent's crazy attack. All at once lost the ability to fight back.

Subsequently. The Zhao army soon occupied the positions of the Qi army. The other Qi army position was directly abandoned before the battle was fought. The Qi army's will to fight was not strong as a whole, and they faced the opponent's strong attack. After a little resistance, they immediately dispersed.

But when the other party sees that he insists on having results, he will resist. Such a posture is not good for Zhao Jun. The Zhao infantry needed to advance quickly. The Qi army's continuous defensive position obstacles were hindering the Zhao army's advance plan.

Although the Zhao army quickly occupied the opponent's position, the result of the payment made the colonel somewhat dissatisfied, and the loss of the officer made him feel distressed. Without these officers, the skeleton of Zhao Jun would have fallen apart. And how many such obstacles Qi Jun set up made the colonel feel very annoyed. Because, the infantry lacked heavy weapons support.

And in the south of the Yangtze River estuary in the land of Wuyue. A merchant from South Korea is walking a slave market. He was also accompanied by a local guide.

"Come and see. Newly arrived Vietnamese slaves. Come and see. On a high platform not far away, a Chu native was shouting loudly.

"Ding, ding, ding." He held a metal object in one hand, and a metal club in the other, striking hard.

"Come and see. The newly arrived Yue slaves, cheap and affordable. And it's hard work. The Chu native was shouting loudly.

The land of Wuyue, because it is close to the sea, at the same time, it is also a rich and developed land, which is rich in all kinds of crops, including rice, silk, and various crops such as rape flowers, which are not available in Qin, and Qin can only import vigorously from these places.

At the same time, it is close to the Yangtze River. Take advantage of well-developed water transport. At the same time, as more and more people in the Chu State were stimulated by the slave trade of the Qin State, they began to actively go to sea to capture the Yue people in the south. They brought the products of the Qin State here to rest for a while, or they simply restocked them here for a profit, and the merchant ships that got the goods here were reloaded onto the ships and went to sea.

Once in the south, they exchanged their industrial goods for slaves, or were directly involved in them. When they returned, they transported the slaves in their hands directly to the Qin State, or they stayed here directly and directly gave them to those inland river transport ships, so that. The land of Wuyue, driven by the Yangtze River transportation trade and the slave trade to the sea, gradually prospered. Many such lieutenant colonel cities have been born here, such as Shanghai, Gusu City, etc., which have a lot to do with the Yangtze River trade and the slave trade to the sea.

"Your Chu State is more prosperous than Xinzheng." The Korean businessman said as he looked at the face of Chu Guo with his hands behind his back.

"There, there, we are a small place here, and we can't compare with a metropolis like Xinzheng, you Xinzheng has a population of one million, and our population is only about 100,000." The pilot on the side said complimentally.

"Hey, hey." When a Korean businessman heard the pioneer speak like this, he was naturally happy in his heart, who did not want to say that his country was strong. When the merchant heard the forerunner say this, he was naturally happy.

"You're doing pretty well here, too. At the very least, there is something here that South Korea does not have. Said the Korean businessman.

"That's, that's". The pilot said respectfully.

"The slave trade is getting more and more developed." The Korean businessman said at this time.

"No, the slave trade is the most profitable." The pilot introduced at this time.

"Those shipowners, every time they come back from a voyage, they make a lot of money. Those slaves, if they were transported to Qin, they would make more money. The pilot said excitedly.

"Especially the owners who do the business back and forth have made a fortune. One of my acquaintances, that's it, he was a dry sailor on the ship. Caught a dozen slaves, and as a result, when they came back from this trip, they sent them. Look at me. Alas. The presedent said to himself. The merchant's attention shifted to the slave table.

The businessman's real identity is actually an intelligence captain in the South Korean New Army. His task is to collect information on all aspects of the country, their identities are changeable and there is no fixed situation, some are journalists, some are businessmen, some are disguised as coolies, farmers who have lost their land, and so on. But they all have the same purpose, which is to gather intelligence for South Korea.

But the intelligence captain now had an annoying task, and that task was to find the most profitable deal, and that deal to be carried out.

At first, they thought that this task was easy to solve, because the most profitable business was in front of them, that is, the slave trade, but after they reported it, they were immediately scolded by their bosses, who clearly told them in their reply that this kind of trade could be done, but the Chu people were ahead of the Koreans, and Korea needed to pay a considerable price to carry it out. This kind of high-cost investment is not what South Korea wants most. So, they ordered it to continue searching.

When the captain received the reply, he didn't know what to do. Indeed, the slave trade was the most lucrative. However, it is not known why the boss scolds them. Later, he figured it out. That's because of the high cost of going to sea. and a series of disputes arising from various diplomatic issues. South Korea is a landlocked country, and he himself has no access to the sea. The same is true of Qin, which is why Qin has a navy but not a sea, in the final analysis, Qin is still a landlocked country. The same is true for South Korea, however, South Korea has a sense of developing overseas, but they lack access to the sea.

This congenital deficiency condition directly leads to the high cost of South Korea going to sea. They first need to open up diplomatic channels. Not only did they have to make friends with the Qin State, because after the ship, they also had to rely on railway transportation to complete the transfer of their materials. This is one thing, and the other is that they have to deal well with the Chu State. They want to gain access to the sea. In this way, the cost of their going to sea will suddenly become very high, these countries themselves are not good masters, and the state of Chu will not give up the huge benefits brought by this golden waterway.

With that in mind. The Korean captain understood what he meant. However, it is really difficult to do this.

"Come and see. These slaves are all strong goods, and in order to make some hard-earned money, for every ten slaves we buy, we will give one Korean slave. At this time, the people of Chu on the high platform shouted loudly.

"What?" The captain originally wanted to leave here and find a quiet place, but at this time he said "Korean slaves." All of a sudden, the captain's interest was aroused.

"What is this? Korean slaves are not as good as these Yue slaves. A slave trader from the Chu State said below.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way." The captain was rude to the slave traders.

"That Korean slave, I bought it." The captain said loudly at this time.

"This." That Chu native obviously didn't expect such a sudden appearance.

"Boom." At this time, the captain immediately threw out a gold coin. This gold coin is a small unit of currency specially minted by the Qin state. This currency was issued specifically for the Chu State, and the purpose was to open the Chu State currency market, because the Chu people did not believe in the Qin State's half-tael banknotes to a certain extent, and in some remote places, they rejected the paper money.

"This." The merchants of the Chu State obviously haven't reacted yet.

At this time, the Korean slave suddenly looked up.

"Come with me." With that, the captain grabbed the slave and left. And the people around were all talking.

"At first glance, it's Korean, Korean, and now I'm proud of it." A Chu State man discussed.

"It seems that it is easy to make money from Koreans. Look at that slave trader. Another Chu native said. He pointed to the slave trader who had quickly picked up the gold coin and bit it with his teeth.

"Thank you for the rescue." In a quiet wine shop. The captain sat across from the Korean slave.

"How did it come to this?" The captain said disdainfully. For those who have fallen into this field. The captain was very puzzled, because this was a disgrace to the Koreans.

"Alas!" The slave sighed.

"Why sigh." The captain asked at this time.

"I'll keep it a secret. He was originally a Korean businessman. Only because of this slave trade. And it fell to this point. The slave bowed his head.

"Woo." The slave cried out.

"This." The captain was a little overwhelmed.

"Take your time." The captain said at this time.

"It turned out to be a Korean businessman, and the slave trade was very profitable. Organize a group of people to hire the people of the Chu country to sail out to sea, and it is true that they encountered the sea breeze. Strayed into a big island, that big island, you need to detour for many days to walk around. The slave said.

It turned out that the slave was the Korean merchant, and on that day, he was lucky enough to jump into the sea to escape, and then he was swept away by the waves, who knows, he was blown to the shore of the mainland by the waves. They were rescued by passing slave ships, but those slave traders of the Chu State had evil intentions, they often pursued profit and unscrupulous means, and after they inquired about it, they immediately treated it as a slave. In this way, he survived, but was sold as a slave. During this period, it was very normal to sell people from other countries as slaves. In this way, he was taken and enslaved, and was rescued by the captain.
