The two sisters listed for a long time, from the water tank bed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and thought about it from top to bottom. Zhu Hongyu calculated the price, and it was still within the range of affordability, but after adding it, there was no spare money.

After settling the accounts, the two men took out the wraps from the house and began to pack their clothes.

The two of them didn't have many clothes, except for the ones they were wearing, only one or two changes of clothes, which they wore when they escaped from the fire.

Of course, there are also two old Taoist robes, which are worn by Runyeshe for Zhu Hongyu and Zhu Amber, and the two of them feel that Runye's clothes wear through their bodies, and it is better to take them away.

After that, the two packed the makeup and belongings they had recently added together, because they didn't live here for a long time, so there weren't many things. When tidying up Zhanao's house, there are more things, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, four books and five classics, although they are not good things, but they are all used by Zhanao to read.

After packing, Zhu Hongyu asked Amber to put the baggage together, waiting for tomorrow to finish adding and moving it together.

Like Zhu Hongyu, Zhu Amber is curious about the world in the town. Zhan Ao came back in the evening, and Zhu Hongyu also told Zhan Ao about it.

Zhan Ao didn't like the atmosphere of the school, and when he heard that his sister had bought a house and was already ready to move in, not to mention how happy he was. Runye was busy until midnight before coming back, and Zhu Hongyu saw that he was tired, so he didn't talk about moving out.

Vermilion didn't sleep long before Amber woke up from her bed. She had an agreement with Zhao Gongzi, and Amber also followed Zhu Hongyu and waited for Zhao Gongzi to come over.

At the end of the day, a black shed car was parked at the gate of Sanguan Temple, and the carport was still hung with golden tassels. A small servant got out of the carriage with a small bench. Zhu Hongyu stepped on the small bench and got into the car, and after entering the carriage, she sat on Zhao Qingyu's right hand. Amber also wants to see the world, so she also gets in the car.

"The two young ladies of the Zhu family are going to catch the big set?"

Zhao Qingyu bowed to Zhu Hongyu, glanced at Amber with his eyes, and asked.

"Big set?" Zhu Hongyu gathered the green silk in her ear and gestured to Amber frantically. But Amber didn't understand what Vermilion meant.

"There is only one big market a year, and the villages near Yunmeng Town rush to the market with local products and characteristics." Zhao Qingyu couldn't help but sigh, "Although the plague is raging in this city, this big gathering on the first day of June this year is inevitable. ”

"I haven't been to Daji by myself before, but I remember when I was five years old, I went to sell wild vegetables with my parents. I feel a lot of emotion when I recall it. ”

Zhao Qingyu heard Zhu Hongyu mention her father, so she followed the conversation and asked, "Usually we don't move around, can you choose your father's grave?" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Hongyu frowned, and then looked at Amber, there was information about her father's death in her memory, but where her father was buried after her death, she really didn't know.

"Sister, you had a high fever and were in a coma at that time, and we haven't told you about it."

"What's the matter?"

"It's my father's graveyard...... At that time, we couldn't find a good place, so we begged Zhao Lizheng to bury my father and mother in a mass grave. ”

"You didn't tell me for so long."

Amber pouted and said, "Sister, you've been so busy this month, and I really can't see the stitches." ”

"Yes, I was negligent." Zhu Hongyu sighed, why is it that the waves are not settled, the family has not been settled yet, Amber said this, she will definitely spend a lot of money to settle her parents.

"Let's put the house in place first, and wait for an auspicious day to be buried for my father and mother. When I come back today, I'll let you know about it. ”

Zhao Qingyu took the folding fan, looked Zhu Hongyu up and down, and felt that this girl's eyes were full of aura.

No matter what she does, she seems to have a plan in her heart.

"Zhao Gongzi." Zhu Hongyu looked at Zhao Qingyu with a smile on her face, "What are you doing in the city this time?" Won't be like our brothers and sisters...... Let's go to the market. ”

Zhao Qingyu unfolded the folding fan and said proudly: "Jiang Zaiyu, the big official in Yunmeng Town, knows." ”

"Him?" Zhu Hongyu not only knew, but also treated him.

"Yes, it seems that Miss Zhu is very familiar."

Zhu Hongyu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I'm not familiar with it, but I've heard of it." He's in town now? ”

Zhao Yuqing closed the folding fan and waved his hand.

"Where is this, my uncle asked me to buy a few girls for Jiang Jaeyu to come back and serve by my side."

Zhu Hongyu's face flushed, it turned out that Jiang Zaiyu was really a one-stop service for eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling in the Zhao family.

"Got it, got it."

"Sister, what do you mean?"

Zhu Hongyu smiled lightly and said, "It's just to buy a few maids." ”

The three of them walked without a bag of cigarettes, and then arrived at the city tower of Yunmeng Town.

From the car window, Zhu Hongyu saw that there were already officers and soldiers guarding the city gate, which was different from a few days ago.

The carriage stopped at the city gate, and the officers and soldiers lifted the curtain and looked inside, and then let the three men go.

Zhu Hongyu lifted the curtain all the way and looked outside. After passing the city gate, walk a few hundred meters to Suzaku Street.

Suzaku Street is crowded with people, and the east and west sides of the street are full of merchants who come to the market to buy things, and the goods are dazzling and everything. Large objects, small objects, no limit to types. The people in the middle aisle rubbed shoulders with each other, holding in their arms the things they had just bought. As far as the eye can see, the entire Suzaku Street is full of stalls doing business, stretching for miles, and you can't see the end at a glance. It was bustling, and there was no plague at all.

The carriage stopped at the end of Suzaku Street, and the coachman shouted outside the carriage: "Young master, young lady, please get off." ”

The three of them got out of the car one by one.

Zhao Qingyu opened the fan, looking like a swinger, he took the fan, pointed to the north of Suzaku Street, and said, "Let's go, go to Yaxing." ”

Zhu Hongyu followed Zhao Qingyu and walked north along Zhuque Street, and walked to a shop without a plaque, Zhao Qingyu stopped.

When I turned my head, I saw several people dressed in tatters and unkempt hair, chained to the railing outside like cattle.

Among them were men and women, and among them was a middle-aged woman who was richly dressed and did not resemble them, and carried in her hand a whip for herding cattle.

When Zhao Yuqing saw this woman, he stepped forward and bowed, "Yo, Ya Po." How's business going today? ”

The so-called Ya Po is a woman who buys and sells human beings.

Zhu Hongyu saw that the man smiled and returned the salute to Zhao Yuqing.

"Hey, this isn't Zhao Gongzi, come over to take care of my business today?"

Zhao Qingyu smiled and said, "Yes, come and see the slave girl, this is not to bring you a new customer." ”

As he spoke, Zhao Qingyu pointed at Zhu Hongyu with a fan.

Ya Po was even happier and said, "These are new slaves, good-looking, young, and not sick. What do Childe and Miss like? ”

"Let the ladies of the Zhu family choose first."

Zhao Qingyu sold a favor to Zhu Hongyu, and Zhu Hongyu only felt embarrassed.

This is buying and selling people, not buying a pig or a sheep. What will be a crime in the future can now be bought and sold on your own in the bazaar.

"Zhao Gongzi, it's my first time to come to Yaxing, and I don't understand many rules, so you can come first."

Zhao Qingyu saw that Zhu Hongyu was embarrassed, and changed his words: "Okay, then I'll pick first, Miss Zhu looks at what she likes, I won't rob you." ”

"It's a joke."

The two of them laughed and walked towards the slaves who were chained to the fence.

Zhao Qingyu only picked women, raised the heads of the female slaves with a fan, and looked around.

"Ya Po, there are no good goods lately?"

"Yo, it's Zhao Gongzi, you have a high vision, and we animals are ordinary people."

Zhao Qingyu looked around, and finally saw a woman with a decent appearance.

"Alright, that's it. How much. ”

Ya Po smiled even brighter, and said: "It hasn't been open for a long time, so I'll sell it cheaper for you and ask for a lottery." Just ten taels of silver. ”

"Ten taels?" Zhao Qingyu shook his head, "The price of this slave has also increased?" Or did you calculate ten taels for me after it was cheap? ”

"Zhao Gongzi doesn't know, this girl is the best in our place and has been trained."

Zhao Qingyu sighed and said, "Ya Po, you see I brought you a customer, it's cheaper." ”

"Okay, eight taels, it really can't be lower. It's time to fold the book! ”

"Can you discount the book? When the sun comes out in the west, you won't lose your money. Eight taels is eight taels. ”

Seeing that the deal had been completed, Ya Po unloaded the rope from the stake and handed it to Zhao Qingyu, who took out the silver ticket and handed it to Ya Po.

Zhu Hongyu walked between a group of female slaves in the interval between the two of them, she saw that these girls were unkempt, and she didn't know whether these people who were bought and sold were voluntary or forced.

"Where did you come from and how did you get sold?"

"Voluntary."

After Zhu Hongyu asked, only one girl replied, she looked up at Zhu Hongyu with a clear gaze. The rest of the people didn't speak, and Zhu Hongyu became interested in this girl.

"What's your name?"

"Taro."

"Voluntarily sold?"

"A family of five, including my brother, died. I had no choice but to sell myself and bury them. This woman is also a good person, she gave me money, and she didn't lie to me. ”

Zhu Hongyu lifted the girl's face, her facial features were very upright, but she was not pretty.

"Come with me, come to my house as a servant, and give you back the monthly order, and redeem yourself later."

"Good!" Taro's eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly recovered from her desperate state just now, looking at Zhu Hongyu as if she saw a life-saving straw.

"Who else among you was sold voluntarily?"

Among the rest of the people, there was no response, Zhu Hongyu sighed, sure enough, there was no purchase and sale, and there was no killing. Most of these girls were abducted.

She turned her head and was about to leave, but she was grabbed by a pair of petite hands on her trouser legs.

"Sister, can I go with you? I was sold by my parents! ”

Zhu Hongyu looked down and saw that it was a little girl of thirteen or fourteen, she stopped and asked, "What is your name?" ”

"Ganoderma lucidum."

"Ganoderma lucidum? Good name. How did you get sold? ”

"My family is poor, my younger brother has no food, my father and mother sold me, and I have been sold for half a year! I hope you will have mercy on me and buy me, sister! I don't want to redeem myself, I will serve you all my life. ”

Zhu Hongyu sighed, this kind of being sold by her father and mother is okay. She looked at a few more people and walked into the store. The people on the leashes in the shop were all men, and they were all unkempt, and many of them were young men who were in good health.

"Which of you was sold voluntarily?"

Zhu Hongyu asked, and there was a commotion in the crowd, obviously no one was sold voluntarily.
