Li Zhan began to wander around the slave market alone, and the day was too magical for him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info has just gotten rid of the status of a slave, and now he is going to the slave market to choose a slave, and it is his own slave, he can't help but sigh that the world is unpredictable.

After entering the slave market, there were constantly traders selling their slaves to Li Zhan, but in Li Zhan's opinion, these slaves seemed to be the kind of hungry people with skin and bones, and they had no energy at all, they kept their heads down, and they didn't know what was happening in front of the accident. Even Li Zhan stopped and observed in front of them for a long time but didn't notice it.

However, anyone who is indulgent will behave like this, who are originally slaves living at the bottom, who are pulled out for various reasons and sold as commodities, without freedom and choice, and their lives are no different from livestock.

"This lord, looking at your extraordinary appearance, I think you are a rich and noble family, I don't know what kind of slave you want, I have it here!" At this time, the vendor where Li Zhan was located stepped forward to introduce his slave to him, "Look, sir, this person used to be a cotton worker in Werner Manor, and his best skill is picking cotton, you see his hands are calloused, and they will never be scratched." ”

The vendor pointed to the cage in front of Li Zhan, where a black man was sitting, and seeing that his hands were full of calluses, Li Zhan also knew that the vendor was telling the truth. However, if he is really an expert in picking cotton, how can he take it out and sell it like this, there must be other reasons. Custer Town is a cotton-producing town, how can anyone not have an expert in cotton picking?

Li Zhan's gaze slowly fell on the black man's lap.

At this time, the black man quietly retracted his left leg, and his eyes secretly glanced at Li Zhan.

Sure enough, if this black man didn't move, Li Zhan might not be able to find the scars on his inner thighs, maybe because he was too nervous about his wounds and didn't want Li Zhan to find them, so he moved quietly, and from his own position, it seemed that the scars were covered, but from Li Zhan's position, it was clear.

The black man's inner thigh had a long wound that had pus at both ends, and in the middle of the wound, blood and stains could be seen attached to each other, making it extremely disgusting.

"Why don't you get him some medicine?" Li Zhan frowned and asked, "A little anti-inflammatory medicine is only how much, he could have bought it at a good price, but now that he looks at it, it's not even worth half of the original amount." ”

Hearing Li Zhan say this, the trader was also nervous, he looked carefully at the inner thigh of the slave, and sure enough, he saw a big wound, why didn't he pay attention to it before.

No wonder the steward of Werner Manor would dispose of such a good cotton picker to himself at a low price, and he is a disabled slave. I saw him smack on the ground fiercely, and then cursed and sweared: "Homer, this bastard, is really blind to do business with him." ”

And the slave seemed to have heard what Li Zhan and the merchant said, and he gradually raised his head to see who the person who had pointed out his wounds was, but all he saw was Li Zhan's back, because at this time he had already turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, don't go, this old man, thank you just now for helping me point out that this slave has a problem, since it is a problematic slave, I think it can be regarded as my bad luck, so I will deal with him to you at a low price, how about it?" When the trader saw that Li Zhan was leaving, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and now he already knew that there was something wrong with his slaves, and if he went out and told people casually, then his credibility in this slave market would be greatly reduced.

Originally, he could have brought the slave back, but what if he brought it back, would Werner Manor take it back and return the money to him? The answer is yes.

Of course, he wouldn't let himself keep one more slave, and one more day was a day's ration, which was a lot of money for a merchant like them.

"Low price?" Li Zhan suddenly became interested in the low price that the trader said, although this black man had injuries on his legs, as long as he squeezed out the pus and blood, and then applied anti-inflammatory drugs and wrapped it with bandages, he could recover in less than a week, how much rations can a slave consume in a week? At most, it's just one silver coin.

"That's right, if you look at this, I'll charge you 60 silver coins, how about it?" The vendor fiddled with his fingers and counted, "When Homer sold him to me, it was 55 silver coins, and I expected him to make me dozens more silver coins, but I didn't expect to almost make me lose money, you see these 5 silver coins must be made by me." ”

The peddler was very honest and didn't look like a liar, but how could the merchant be so honest?

"40 silver coins, I won't take more." Li Zhan's fingers stood up four times, and he said, "I will treat his wounds when this slave is brought back, and he will not be able to work for at least a month after he is bandaged." When the month passes, the cotton picking season will be over, which means that it will be at least three months before I can use him, so, 40 silver coins. ”

The price given by Li Zhan really surprised the vendor. 40 silver coins, he bought this slave from Homer at a low price, and spent nearly 40 silver coins, if he really resold him at such a low price, then his business today is in vain.

"40 silver coins, this lord, it's really a little less, or you can add another one..."

"38 silver coins!"

Before the vendor could finish speaking, he heard Li Zhan lower the price again. It was his turn to panic, and he hurriedly held Li Zhan's hand and said: "Hey, forget it, I'll make friends with you today, 40 will be 40, deal!" ”

Hearing that Marco had sold himself, the black man also looked up, and his mood was difficult to describe, a little pain and a little joy.

But in the end, his negativity took over, because all the slave owners were based on the premise of exploiting labor, and all they wanted was to make money.

Of course, Li Zhan didn't know what the slave was thinking, in fact, his idea was very simple, after all, he bought 50 hectares of land, and always needed someone to plough it, and when the time came, he would give the working method of the individual contract system and throw it to those slaves, so that it could not only mobilize their labor enthusiasm but also improve their living conditions.

The price has been set, and Li Zhan feels that this deal is quite cost-effective, although he only wants someone who can cultivate the land diligently, which can be known from the calluses on the hands of black people.

"Here, 40 credits!" Li Zhan counted 40 silver coins from his money bag and gave them to Ma Ke, then patted the other party on the shoulder and said, "If there is such a discount, you must contact me, I am in the 50-male manor in the east of the town." My name is Li Zhan. ”

Ma Ke accepted the 40 silver coins with an aggrieved face, and then handed the black man's slave contract to Li Zhan, "This is his slave contract, Master Li Zhan, as long as you sign it, he will be yours in the future." ”

"It's rare to find someone as shrewd as you."

Li Zhan ignored Ma Ke's complaints, and happily signed his name on the slave contract.

This was followed by a prompt from the system: "McCann, Identity: Slave (belonging to Li Zhan), Loyalty 30, Specialty: Cooking." ”

Seeing McCann's identity information, Li Zhan suddenly shouted that he was deceived.

With Amir's experience, he is also suspicious of McCann, whose specialty is cooking. He feared that this McCann was a cheater like Emile again.

Marco uses the key to open the cage and then asks McCann to come out, telling him that his current owner is Li Zhan.

At this time, McCann's heart was still mostly tragic, and he could only accept his fate for the new master Li Zhan: "Master, hello, my name is McCann." ”

In his opinion, Li Zhan will definitely be like other slave owners: go back with me, I will label your ass, and you will be my slave from now on.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Li Zhan said to him was: "Can you still walk on your legs, do you need me to help you?" ”

Hearing this, not only McCann, but even Ma Ke was shocked, Li Zhan actually wanted to help a slave, and it was a black slave, which can be said to be something he had never heard of.

In Marco's surprised expression, Li Zhan helped the limping McCann out of his stall, and many vendors around him also saw this scene, and many people began to speculate, what is the relationship between this Li Zhan and McCann?

Of course, Li Zhan can't leave the slave market so quickly, and now he has to find a few more slaves, otherwise he will definitely not be able to rely on McCann alone for such a large piece of land.

Go to the ground yourself? Don't be kidding, Li Zhan is a theoretician, he hasn't even touched a hoe, how can he go to the ground by himself.

"There's an infirmary up ahead, I'll take you there first to get your leg treated." Li Zhan helped McCann, feeling that there was nothing wrong, but McCann felt that he was very awkward, his height was much taller than Li Zhan, and being supported like this was like a cane.

What's more, this person is still his own master.

"Master, I can walk by myself, you don't have to hold me." McCann finally couldn't help but refuse Li Zhan's support, and his heart also changed dramatically, he originally thought that Li Zhan was also a stingy slave owner, just from his bargaining process, it can be seen that he cherishes money very much.

But now he said that he would bandage his wounds first, and he was moved like never before.

Li Zhanleng paused for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Oh? Can you walk on your own? ”

Seeing McCann's affirmative nod, he stopped supporting McCann, and then took out a silver coin and gave McCann and said, "Then you can go to the infirmary to bandage it yourself, and I have to hire a few more people to come back." ”

He said he was going to hire a few more people? Instead of buying?

McCann, who took the silver coin, felt that there was something wrong with his ears: "Master, did you mean to hire a few people?" ”

"Yes, hire three more people, or I really don't know how to move my 50 hectares of land." Li Zhan smiled awkwardly and left.

Suddenly, he turned to McCann and asked, "Isn't your specialty cotton picking, but cooking?" ”

McCann nodded suspiciously, he didn't understand why Li Zhan suddenly asked this question, but he still answered honestly: "Yes, master, I used to be a chef in Vernal Manor for a year. ”

"Great! Earned! Li Zhan suddenly became very happy, he had finally found the chef he wanted, and Amir's dark cuisine was definitely not something he could accept.
