Chapter 62: Buying Slaves

"Take a look, the best Persian maid~ only sell for the same money!"

"Cut, crooked melon and cracked dates. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Leng Yuyan snorted.

Bai Mo took a closer look, in fact, those Persian girls were quite dignified and beautiful, after all, the mid-to-high-end goods were sold, and the usual diet and maintenance should be good, and the stall owner who was selling also deliberately cut a few gaps in the clothes of the slave girls, vaguely revealing the snow-white skin unique to the Persians.

Although there were a few strong men carrying chains on the side, the female slaves did not look depressed or frightened, but cooperated with the stall owner's bidding, scratching their heads and making gestures on the side of the road.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see here."

Leng Yuyan tugged at Bai Mo's sleeve.

Bai Mo smiled bitterly.

Hecai's mother is a Persian, probably because she is afraid that she will be seduced by these foxes like Hewei.

Bai Mo also plans to take a look more, this market for people-oriented goods is very large, in addition to getting back a few servants, Bai Mo actually has a little idea of panning for gold in the sand, if he can buy something at a low price, wouldn't it be a big deal?

Not far in front is a stall selling "ghost slaves".

The so-called ghost slave refers to a kind of "professional slave" who arrived in the Great Jin Dynasty from the merchant ship at sea, these people are known for their hard work and low prices, and they are also a healthy and strong labor force.

The Great Confucian Kang Yuan Dynasty has a cloud: "Its shape is also, iron-faced and silver-toothed, slanted forehead like a pig, direct gaze like a cow, full of long hair, dark hands and feet, stupid like a sheep pig, fishy and intimidating." "The healer should use the medicine of the heir to make it extinct." The extremely derogatory words also made the ghost slave market, which was actually selling well, cold for a while, and the stall owners had to grit their teeth and further lower the price, and even because of his words, the imperial court also ordered the people to strictly prohibit communication with ghost slaves, and buyers were strictly forbidden to marry and have children without authorization, and only those who sold slaves were allowed to engage in "breeding". It is believed that Kang Yuangugong's description was a benefit from stall owners who sold other kinds of slaves.

The Persians, on the other hand, are a group of people who envy their majestic body and fair skin even when they see them, and because of the prosperity of the Persian state, few decent Persians are willing to be slaves, so the market circulation is very small, and the prices are very high.

However, it is worth mentioning that most of these Persian slaves who came over were sold to the Central Plains by the official operation of the Persian state, and some of them were former nobles.

Leng Yuyan stopped and said, "These ghost slaves can buy some back." ”

"But our family doesn't farm or operate freight, so we don't need it?" Bai Mo was a little puzzled.

Leng Yuyan stretched out her finger and pointed, Bai Mo followed her fingers, and what caught her eyes was the young child kneeling beside the two ghost slave adults, looking at the age of about seven or eight years old, and his body was thin to the point of skin and bones. It turned out that Leng Yuyan was moved by compassion.

Before Bai Mo walked to the stall, he said to a fat stall owner who weighed an estimated two hundred and fifty pounds: "How much are these two?" ”

As he spoke, Bai Mo pointed to the two children.

The stall owner smiled all over his face: "Childe, if you buy a strong man from me for thirty yuan, or a woman for the same price, these two will be spared to Childe, no money." ”

Bai Mo glanced at the listless ghost slaves squatting on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh, he really didn't have any good feelings.

"What about buying alone?"

"This ...... Childe, forget it, the old man should make a friend of Childe, ten cents, you can take these two little ghosts away. ”

Bai Mo pinched his nose.

In fact, ten cents is expensive, and the stall owner is bullying him for not understanding the market.

However, Bai Mo did not lack these two money, so he directly took out ten copper plates from his purse and handed them over to the stall owner, and the deal was completed.

Bai Mo squatted down, smiled kindly, and then pointed at Leng Yuyan and said, "From today on, you belong to that girl, and you have to serve her well in the future, she is not very good-tempered." ”

The two little ghost slaves spoke, and they actually spoke an authentic official dialect with a Fengjing accent: "Son, girl, great kindness, our two brothers will definitely repay each other with their lives!" ”

Saying that, the two brothers actually hugged each other and wept bitterly, that kind of deep and exquisite pathos, which should not belong to people of this age.

This wording, like a little adult, made Bai Mo fade away Fang Cai's disgust, it seems that these ghost slaves are not as dull as rumored, and there are still smarter people among them.

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't steal or rob, be a good person, eat and drink enough."

"Gongzi Xie!"

Bai Mo was about to take away the two children, but he heard the stall owner say, "Son, I don't know your surname?" ”

"A certain surname is Bai, what's wrong?"

The stall owner smiled, turned back to the strong man who was guarding the slaves, and shouted, "Is there any white letter?" ”

Bai Mo frowned, not knowing what tricks this stall was playing.

"I'll look for ...... later"

A moment later, the stall owner took the two children away, and two screams like pigs were heard in the distance.

Leng Yuyan couldn't help but sigh: "It's too dark. ”

"They're too dark?"

"No, I mean, it's too dark today."

Bai Mo raised his head.

The sun will set and the sky will be dark and not dark.

The floating clouds are colorful, and there are goose-shaped words and flying.

"I'll take care of this, later."

When the stall owner brought the two children in again, there was an extra brand under their necks.

White.

This is proof that they have an owner.

The stall owner smiled: "So you won't be afraid of getting lost." ”

Leaving this stall, Bai Mo suddenly sighed, is he too virgin? Sure enough, it's a little uncomfortable to adapt to the life of the people in this world.

Bai Mo bought twenty Kunlun slaves as housekeepers and eight Central Plains women as maids. When buying those maids, Bai Mo knew that not all of them were sold together with their "net worth", and to buy the Central Plains people as slaves, they needed to press their own handprints and sign the deed of sale, and the deed of sale stipulated that "you can't beat you to death, you can't insult your parents and relatives, you can't manage marriage, you can't control the marriage, you have a period of 20 years, you have to reinstate your nationality after expiration, you have nothing to do with it, and you can sell it again." ”

After signing this agreement, Bai Mo felt a lot less guilty.

He asked the stall owner who sold slaves in the Central Plains, "Where did all these people come from?" ”

When the stall owner heard this question, he added caution: "I don't have money to support myself, in fact, just like me, they are all for the sake of eating, and the deeds of sale are all written by themselves or written by themselves, and some are deeds, but the dignitaries and dignitaries with the deeds don't like to buy them, and most of them are still deeds of sale." ”

"I'm going to sign this before?"

"Childe, how long ago did you ask? I have to sign since I entered this line, but according to my father, I didn't need to sign it earlier, but the arrogant General Xiao Yue took care of the affairs of the prime minister and the imperial historian on behalf of the prime minister, so there is such a law, the people who sell themselves as slaves must write their own deeds of sale, not more than 20 years, not allowed to beat too hard, not allowed to scold their families, these articles must be written, and now my father mentions General Xiao, and gritted his teeth. ”

Bai Mo nodded: "Understood." ”

Leng Yuyan said at this time: "This is still a matter of the Holy King's year, at that time, Xiao Yan just became a general, in fact, his status is far inferior to the third duke, and the emperor punished him afterwards, but the punishment was not heavy, and this law was not changed back." ”

The stall owner pouted and said, "Don't you dare to call General Xiao by his name." ”

Hearing this, an incredible thought suddenly rose in Bai Mo's heart.

At that time, in the court, in addition to the emperor answering with him, only Prime Minister Wei Wuji and an old minister who looked polite and polite were the only ones who commented on their appearance with the emperor at the beginning.

Could it be that old minister, Xiao Yan?

Is that the godly general?

With this thought, Bai Mo quickly dispelled it.

Xiao Yan is a person who enters the Qin Palace alone, seven in and seven out. When he entered the Qin Palace for the last time, he still carried such a burden as the Holy King, but the last time he entered the Qin Palace, the Qin Emperor Yunhuan was startled in his dream, and then Xiao Yan put a knife on his neck and washed the feet of the Jin Holy King with his own hands.

There are only two paragraphs in the description of this matter in the Jin Jizhong.

“…… The Holy King Lianchu, Huai Zhan Qin people Yu Wu, the north, Qin captured the Holy King, and forced him to Tai'a Palace to do Qin Wang Hao. ”

“…… In October, the King of Qin was full of saints. ”

I didn't say the cause and effect, I only knew the aftermath...... The king of Qin was furious, and the revival division attacked Jin. ”

But this matter has long been spread among the people, and has been derived from many versions, and has even been written as "The Story of a Strong Man Going to Qin to Save the King", which was put on the stage.

In Bai Mo's heart, Xiao Yanru either looked like a martial artist or looked like an assassin with an unattractive appearance.

Even the heroic pink-faced little student on the stage.

But it can't be the lean and well-mannered old minister.

"What do you think?"

Leng Yuyan patted Bai Mo's shoulder, Bai Mo struck a spirit, relieved his nerves, and then said, "I didn't think about anything." ”

Leng Yuyan was suspicious, but he didn't bother to pursue it.

"Give them some names."

Bai Mo thought about it, and these people had new names.

The two ghost slaves are called Yunqian and Yunyun.

Twenty Kunlun slaves who were domestic slaves called:

Wind, rain, perfection, smoothness, success.

Birth, people, seal, peace.

Be brave, be resolute, be strong, be courageous, and be healthy.

Warm, literate, double, eye, clear.

The eight women who were maids called:

Bluestone, colorful clouds, red sun, Xiwei.

Twilight purple, morning branches, spring rhyme, fragrant flowers.

Bai Mo finished taking the name, and he didn't have the understanding of being the master at all, and still smiled at them: "The new name, less than 20 years with you, more for a lifetime, you must remember it." ”

And the people answered, but some wept.
