Chapter Twenty-Seven: Selection
"The death deed means that life and death are in the hands of the owner from now on." Yachiyoshi's low voice was like muttering to himself.
She seemed to suddenly think of something: "Baji, you also signed a death deed?" ”
"Hmm."
"Why?"
Baji smiled lightly with red eyes: "Because the death deed gives a lot of silver." ”
Lots of silver? No amount of money can buy a life, this is a living person! Are there any human rights left? It's not an animal!
"Bing'er, it's been like this since ancient times." Ran Zongyan's words pulled her back into reality.
Her clenched fist slowly loosened, yes, this is ancient times, it is a feudal society. There is a strict hierarchy, there is an imperfect and imperfect law. There are princes and nobles who are desperate for their lives, and there are also poor people at the bottom who are struggling to survive......
This is not a modern society where everyone is equal, and it is not a modern society where everything must be pursued fairly.
It's not her hometown either...... She's just a passerby.
She doesn't have the ability or the responsibility to change all this, so what's the point of her anger now? Since it is impossible to change all this, then there should be no appearance of sympathy and indignation.
"Sign, I'll sign the death deed. But I have one request. ”
Yan Liangdong's face has become not so good-looking, and he has to make additional requirements? He didn't even listen, and was ready to turn away.
"Master, please, buy it with my child."
Only then did Han Bing notice that behind her, there was an unkempt child.
looks like he is about seven or eight years old, but because he has not eaten enough for a long time, his figure looks relatively petite, and he can't tell whether he is a man or a woman. The big eyes don't have the agility that should belong to this age, and they are full of fear.
"What did you buy such a young child for?"
Yan Liangdong turned around and left mercilessly, while Han Bing stood in place, looking at the middle-aged woman with a disappointed face holding her child tightly.
Tears flowed down one by one, and this time I didn't sell myself, I don't know if there will be a chance next time.
The child leaned into her arms and patted her mother on the back, as if that would give her some comfort.
"Lord Wang, can I buy them?"
"Bing'er, to survive here, it doesn't depend on kindness and weakness and sympathy."
"I know."
"Bing'er naturally has rights."
She turned her head and looked at Ran Zongyan seriously for the first time: "Thank you." ”
No matter how ordinary the three words, Ran Zongyan heard the true meaning from them.
"Baji, apart from the death contract, what other contract is there?"
"Living deed, you can choose to regain your free body after twenty years, but the silver is relatively small."
"Auntie, I'll give you the money for the death deed, sign the living deed, and buy the two of you."
The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up, and she couldn't believe what she had heard.
"Girl, really?"
"Hmm." She nodded emphatically.
The middle-aged woman took the half-grown child and knelt solemnly in front of her.
Before she could help them up, a lot of people came up hulala, surrounded her, and said, "Buy me, girl, I'm young and strong." ”
"Girl, I can do the job."
"Girl, I have strength, I have great strength."
"Girl, I can do embroidery."
"I know how to cook, I used to be a cook!"
"Girl......"
"Girl......"
The sound of chirping, with accents from different places, made her feel irritated when she heard it.
She roared, "Enough! I'll throw you out if you make any more noise! ”
She looked around, and there were some young people in relatively good spirits, some of whom seemed to be physically strong. The palace is now completely empty, and it's good to buy a few to go back to the home and nursing home.
"Look at you, are you embarrassed to say that you are strong? With such good physical fitness, why don't you go to work as a coolie? Why not go looking for a job? Instead to sell yourself? ”
"It's not that you want to enter a rich family in one fell swoop, and being someone's subordinate is more face-saving than being the master of your own house, right?"
"I don't need you, get out of the way."
The onlookers soon dispersed, and those who could come here to buy people were not something they could mess with. Even if they were no longer satisfied, they did not dare to say anything.
After a spin, she came back with a smile on her face.
Yan Liangdong was stunned and looked at the large group of people who followed her, and his face could be described as the bottom of the pot.
"What did you buy?"
"Man."
"Nonsense, of course I know it's human. What can you do when you buy these old, weak, sick and disabled people? ”
His outstretched fingers were shaking in anger...... Although there is no shortage of money in the palace, it can't be wasted like this.
Look at the people she chose, she bought almost all the kids here! Whether it's big or small, male or female, all of them won't be refused! If you want to have no strength, if you want to look good, what are you doing? Is there going to be a school opening?
Also, what's going on with that group of old people? Do you want to buy it back for retirement?!
