The streets leading to the market are very narrow, and there are ****** in these winding alleys. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info. Pigs can walk freely among the garbage on the side of the road, which is probably the biggest feature of a town.

Merchants sold their wares along the alleys, whole pigs, blacksmiths making armor, and some taverns with heavy drinkers.

"Behold, noble apprentices from the Castle of the Greenlands. Oh, it turned out to be just a bunch of apprentices. A drunken man stared at Sauron's group.

A drunkard may not even know the virtues that his own name represents, and it would be foolish to have ordinary knowledge.

However, the brooch pinned to Sauron's chest and the new baronial insignia startled his companions at the drunkard's side.

"I'm sorry, this noble lord. This guy is drunk, and I'm going to drag him away. ”

The new emblem shows the eagle with its side head upright and wings outstretched, with a pronounced protruding beak and claws. The owner of the allegorical coat of arms is a baron of high status and honor. The ears of wheat underneath the talons indicate that this is a lord with a fief. The baron's coat of arms also includes deer and boar, but Sauron prefers the eagle.

"Hmph, pig, your blood should be bubbling up with the stinking water of the sewers." Behringer and a dozen apprentices gripped the hilt of their swords, scaring the two guys into turning around.

Zoro didn't care, and he continued to walk forward, his fingers stroking over the One Ring on his knuckles. He wasn't really interested in spending money to hire a few mercenaries.

The advantage of relying on a group of mercenaries to maintain the territory is that you don't have to train a lord, and the disadvantage may be that loyalty is not reliable. Professional mercenaries are very combative, but they are only loyal to the rules of money, and low morale will make them fear death at critical moments.

With the Ringwray Angmar Witch King under his personal protection, Sauron didn't think a few mercenaries were worth much. If there are fewer mercenaries, it is useless, and if there are more, you can't afford to raise them in your pocket. So after coming to the slave market in the center of Hetan Town, Sauron's eyes were still on the slaves who had been auctioned.

After entering the market, I saw crowds of people everywhere and people were noisy. The market was divided into lower slave areas, middle slave areas, and higher slave areas.

"Is there a male slave who is healthier?" A plainly dressed man asked, pointing to a group of scrawny slaves in the cage behind.

At the inferior slave stalls, the slave trader replied, "Take your pick." ”

"How much?" 9 silver coins. ”

The farmer on the manor who bought the slaves said, "It's so expensive, I just want to buy one that will help me farm the land." ”

"8 silver coins."

The buyer said, "Seven silver coins, I can buy one." ”

The slave trader thought for a moment and agreed, and when the buyer handed him the money, the servant next to him, who also had the mark of a slave on his face, opened the cage and handed it to him as if he had taken out a thin man.

In the middle slave quarters, able-bodied slaves and good-looking female slaves were hot with their bare hands.

There is no auction hammer as Sauron remembers. Instead, the whip is used three times to mark the deal.

And when the auction item is a delicate slave girl, the crowd participating in the bidding is excited, their eyes are red, and they scream out the price to express their desire. The whole hot scene made Zoro feel like he had entered a department store street in his previous life, and he raised his hand and shouted the price, and it climbed one after another.

This side shouted: "Beauty, beauty!" Absolutely no one has touched it! And no one else is bidding! ……”

There was a shout: "If you buy it, you won't regret it!" When you buy, you earn! The tender little slave girl has a base price of only 20 gold coins. ……”

"If you want, it only takes 28 gold coins and she'll be yours tonight." “29!”“ 29 gold coins for the first time! Tender and sweet slave girl!"

"I'll give you 30 gold coins!"

When a deal is made, the girl is stripped naked by the seller, and the buyer gently presses her head, opens her lower lip, and examines her speech to determine her real age, just as she would buy an animal.

"Damn it." Unlike the other apprentices in the audience who were surprised and shocked, Cicely's face was completely pale, her anger was on the verge of rage, her shoulders were shaking violently, and her voice gradually changed tone, "These slave traders deserve to die. ”

Following Cicely's gaze, Zoro saw the girls' hands fall feebly, allowing the most secret parts of women to be exposed to a group of men.

Zoro paid special attention to the eyes of the girls, rolling their eyes like dying people, and they were indeed in a state of mental dying.

The second picture that caught Zoro's attention later was a well-dressed young man behind a middle-aged buyer, whose father-like middle-aged man had just bought a slave girl for him, and he was trying to hide his shock as he watched his father come up to the stage to 'check', which could be seen from the overly serious and somewhat convulsive expression on his face.

The boy must have traveled with his father and uncle, and came to the slave girl market for the first time. In front of this beautiful girl who showed off her nakedness, he was originally good, his blood was surging, his heart was beating wildly, and his eyes were complicated, and there was not only pity and sympathy for this person of the same age and the opposite sex, but also the conjecture of her inner world and the yearning and curiosity of that graceful body.

Sauron suddenly remembered a poem, "If life is only as it first sees." ”

For the teenagers and girls in the audience, it really seems too cruel at this moment.

If their first encounter was not in the slave market, but in the desert, then even if she was the daughter of a shepherd, and he was a nobleman, the girl would have ignited the love in the heart of the boy, which was the outpouring of human nature. And now, in this ugly slave market, they are all peers, but one is a buyer, and the other is a beautiful but lowly female animal.

The elder of the boy was not just buying a slave girl for him. Or is he using the slave market as a life lesson, teaching him a cruel lesson, allowing him to learn and identify with his social hierarchy.

It's not that Sauron doesn't have compassion, it's that he can't do anything about it.

In the middle slave area, there were too many girls waiting to be auctioned off or being bought, and even if he was full of pity and could buy most of them, he still couldn't save the other more slave girls. No matter what he does now, this scene will continue tomorrow.

However, one thing cannot be denied, it was the female slaves who created the glory of the entire slave market, and without the female slaves, there would probably not be such a hot auction house. The slave trade was banned by the kingdom more than once, and it was lifted more than once.
