After driving away the two of them, Qin Duan breathed a sigh of relief and finally calmed down, but who would lead the way for him? Just as he was in trouble, a crisp voice came from the side: "Sir, do you have anything you need me to do for you?" ”

Qin Dui turned his head to see that a little boy asked shyly three meters away from him, because the guards were winged to protect Qin Dui, it was difficult for the little boy to get close, so he had to stay a few meters away.

"Ho, what can you do for me?" Qin Duan was very amused and asked with a smile.

"I don't think you're familiar with this place, and you're going to need someone to show you the way, don't you?" The little boy was only about eleven or twelve years old, with fair skin, sea-blue eyes, and black hair, and he could be seen to be a mixed-race child.

The population of the imperial capital is more than five million, and there are ethnic and racial groups from all over the mainland, and the number of Caucasian people is not small.

Seeing Qin Duan's kind attitude, the boy became bolder.

"Well, I need a guide, but are you up to it?" Qin Du replied with a smile.

"You underestimate me too much, my little Willy grew up in the imperial capital since he was a child, which street and alley in the imperial capital am I not familiar with? What are the major events that happen every day in the imperial capital that I don't know? Sir, it is definitely a wise choice for you to hire me! The little boy's face was a little red, obviously a little excited.

"Oh, your name is Willie?" Qin Du asked with a smile.

"Well, my name is Willie Brooke, did you promise to hire me?" The little boy asked excitedly.

"Well, what about your salary?"

Qin Dui felt that this little boy was very cute, and Wei Xianxian and Master Li's two daughters beside him also thought that this little boy was quite attractive, and they all looked at Qin Dui with a smile, hoping that he would agree.

"Sir, I think you are all outsiders, so you probably have to stay in the imperial capital for a while. You only need to pay me one silver coin a day, and if you hire me for a month, then two silver and five silver coins will be enough. The little boy had a look of antiquation on his face, and he couldn't bear to refuse.

Nodding with a smile, Qin Duan said, "Okay, I'll hire you." Three silver a month, but you have to do a good job, and if I'm not satisfied, I can fire you at any time. ”

"Sir, rest assured, you are satisfied." The little boy jumped to his feet with joy.

"Then let's go, you lead the way, take us around the market, and see if there's a suitable one. I want to buy a few slaves to be slaves. Qin Duan motioned to Song Tianxiong next to him to take the little boy, Song Tianxiong lightly stretched his ape arm and lifted the little boy onto the horse.

The little boy was surprised and delighted, and touched the mane of the horse under him enviously: "Sir, what shall I call you?" ”

"You will be called Lord Duke."

Song Tianxiong answered, the news that Qin Duan was promoted to duke and concurrently served as the governor of the North Loulan region made the group very happy, Wei Xianxian and Li Shishi were secretly happy, thinking that their respective sects could expand their power again. How can you not be happy.

The little boy's face changed, and he quickly looked around. "Sir, this noble title cannot be faked, if it is found out by pretending to be someone, it is a crime of killing the head."

"Haha, who can pretend? You're funny, little one. Our Lord Qin is an upright first-class duke of the Empire, so can he be pretended? Song Tianxiong said with a smile as he urged the horse forward.

The little boy's suspicious eyes looked up and down on Qin Dui, who had already changed out of his court clothes and was dressed in casual clothes. I really couldn't see anything unusual, but seeing that Song Tianxiong didn't seem to be joking, he had to nod his head.

"I don't know what kind of slaves my lord wants to buy?" The little fellow seemed to be familiar with the slave from time to time.

"Oh? What's the point of that? Qin Duan asked with a smile.

"Of course. If you want to buy a slave who is clumsy and stupid, you have to get the Fei firm over there to buy it, and Uncle Fei is friendly with the officials in Kansai, and the Gao Yue barbarian, who is often powerful and strong, is sold here, and the price is also fair; If you want to buy some literate and well-read slaves, you have to go to the southern merchant over there, where most of the slaves are from the Wuhu area in the south of the Yangtze River, but the price is more expensive. Little Willie was right.

"What else?" Qin Duan also wanted to test him.

"There is also the Sihailou in the east, where the female slaves are particularly famous, whether it is the white race of the Central and Western continents, or the yellow race of the south of the Yangtze River, or the mixed-race slaves, there is everything, and they are all beautiful and moving, many rich and noble families and green buildings in the imperial capital like to choose here. It's just that the price here is not affordable for ordinary people. There is also the fair square in the west, which is the largest in the imperial capital, it is run by the imperial officials, all the families of officials who have committed crimes and are imprisoned are dealt with here, and prisoners of war are often traded here, the slaves in it are complex, the quality is uneven, and the prices are also high, if you have the opportunity, you can buy high-class slaves for a small fee. Little Willie deliberately showed off what he knew, and his eyebrows fluttered.

Qin Duan didn't say anything for a long time, he was aroused, Di Rena was probably sold into the Qinglou here, if she hadn't met herself, her fate might have been bleak.

Although this system itself is quite disgusted, its existence must have its own reason, and he has not completely abolished this ugly phenomenon in the northwest and even in North Loulan? It's funny that it has not only been abolished, but that it has to be properly protected.

Seeing that Qin Dui didn't squeak, the little guy didn't talk any more, and the group wandered around the market silently, and after a while, Qin Dui retracted his thoughts.

"Oh, I just want to buy a few people to be my house, such as guarding the door, serving tea and pouring water, cleaning and other chores, and I also want to buy a few maid rings, who can read and write better." Qin Duan said what he wanted.

"That's not easy, then go to the southern firm, where the supply is abundant and the price is fair." Little Willie built yì road.

The group went straight to the depths of the market under the leadership of little Willy, and the little guy was like an old horse, turning three times and two times to a business that did not look very inconspicuous, but the doorposts of this business looked like they were some years old, showing the long history of the business.

"Yo, it's little Willy, long time no see." Seeing that the little boy brought in a few buyers, the servant who received him at the door greeted the little boy warmly.

"Second Brother Zhang, go and call your shopkeeper to come, these people are all nobles with status today."

The little boy looked familiar with this place, and he also seemed very casual, but he still didn't dare to say Qin Duan's status as a duke, but vaguely said that he was a nobleman.

Because he really can't believe that a person of Qin Dui's age will have the title of duke, if it is an earl and viscount, it is so-so, no one will believe it if he is a duke, he doesn't want to lose an opportunity to make money because of this.

"Oh?"

The servant, who was dressed quite exquisitely, looked Qin Dui and his party up and down with some surprise, and felt that this group of people was extraordinary, and I was afraid that they could not receive it, so he hurriedly made a respectful gesture and invited Qin Dui and his party to sit down, and then said with a smile: "The guest officer will please have tea first, and the small one will immediately invite the shopkeeper to come out."
