Chapter 115: Human City

Say goodbye to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop, Wang Zhi took everyone to follow the tooth man to see the house, the first place is a two-entry courtyard, located in a quiet alley, go into various places to take a look, feel that this place is quite clean, although the key furniture has been moved, but the kitchen is still intact, the iron pot is still there, it can be used after cleaning up, and the place is big enough, Wang Zhi, who doesn't want to trouble anymore, chose here directly.

Wang Zhi chose the place, and the tooth man immediately went back to find someone who could be in charge to sign the contract, and soon came back with a fat body and a man dressed in silk clothes, according to the tooth man, this person was a friend of the owner of the yard, and the yard was entrusted to him to take care of it, which was equivalent to the agent of the owner.

When I asked about the rent, it was only three times a year, it was really cheap, and I immediately decided to rent it for a year, and after writing the contract, Wang Zhi paid the bill with a silver collar, and the landlord agent did not bring the scissors and scales that weighed the silver, and the tooth man went back to get it, and cut it several times before cutting out a piece of silver that weighed three or two.

After paying the bill, the landlord, the tenant, and the Chinese signed and mortgaged, and the courtyard was temporarily owned by Wang Zhi.

The owner left with his own contract, and the tooth man still stayed, waiting for Wang Zhi to give the intermediary fee, but at this time, it was not called the intermediary fee, but the reward.

Wang Zhi picked one of the silver horns cut when he weighed the silver before, about a few points of weight, in the ancient Chinese unit of weight, one tael is equal to ten coins is equal to one hundred cents, which is equivalent to dozens of dollars, which is a lot of money for such a simple rental agency, so that the tooth people are grateful again and again.

"You go and help me find a firewood seller to send a load of firewood, and there will be arrangements when I come back."

After the tooth man left, the group went to the main hall, because there were no chairs, they could only stand, Wang Zhi took out a bag of rice and some plastic buckets, and instructed Zhao Lingyun: "You take them to clean up the kitchen, and then boil porridge and boil water, boil porridge in a pot, and boil more boiling water." ”

"I can understand cooking porridge, what are you boiling water for?" Zhao Lingyun asked.

"I'll go out to buy people in a while, and I'll naturally wash them when I come back."

"Buying people? Who to buy? Can people still buy and sell? Zhao Lingyun asked puzzledly, it seems that this guy doesn't read historical novels much.

"Anyway, you don't care about this, Zhao Lingyun just do what I say." After saying a word impatiently, Wang Zhi took out a few single-tube fireworks and a lighter to Zhao Lingyun, "If something happens when I'm away, use this to send me a signal, and I'll rush back immediately." ”

After receiving the fireworks, Zhao Lingyun muttered quietly: "What can happen at home, make a fuss." ”

"Don't overestimate the security of ancient times, this is not a legal society, a few of us are dressed so strangely, it is already eye-catching, and we have exposed our wealth, maybe we will be targeted a long time ago."

"I know you're still showing your wealth." Zhao Lingyun continued to mutter.

"Hehe, I don't have any copper coins, spending in this place, whether it is taking a big silver collar or scattering broken silver, in the eyes of some people, it is equivalent to revealing wealth." Wang Zhi didn't want to explain more, he was invincible in this world, only the world accommodated him, why let him accommodate this world, so he changed his usual cautious style and became unscrupulous.

The alley where this yard is located is outside the street, so after a while, there was a whole sound of knocking on the door outside the door, but it was the tooth man who came back, and brought a firewood man with firewood, and after giving the firewood money to send the firewood, Wang Zhi asked the tooth man: "Is there a city in this county?" ”

The human market, as the name suggests, is a place to buy and sell people, although China completed the transformation from a slave society to a feudal society as early as the Warring States Period, to the Song Dynasty, the word slave is only a noun in the history books, but the population can still be bought and sold, these people who are bought are generally men as servants and prostitutes, and they are cheap, although their situation is better than that of slaves, and the essential definition is fundamentally different from slaves, but in fact it is not much better.

"Yes, naturally, the little old man will take the master there."

So the tooth people took Wang Zhi to a vegetable market, surrounded by farmers who went to the city to sell vegetables.

"This is the human market?" Wang Zhi looked at the tooth man on the side, if he didn't say that a son ugly Yin came out, a bad review would be indispensable.

"This is the human market." Sensing that Wang Zhixin was displeased, the tooth man thought that he had brought it to the wrong place, and hurriedly said: "This is a vegetable seller, and there is a meat seller market in the north of the city, is the master going there?" ”

"I'm talking about a human market, not a market."

"Isn't a human market just a market?" The tooth man was full of doubts, didn't this master go to the bazaar to buy something?

Hearing this, Wang Zhi somewhat understood, maybe the Times Bazaar was called the People's Market, and the Yaren thought he was going to the bazaar, so he brought him to this vegetable market.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhi said to the tooth man: "What I want to go to is a place to sell people, not a place to sell vegetables?" ”

"It turns out that the master wants to buy servants, and the small one will be wrong, although the government does not prohibit this human trafficking, but after all, it is a thing that cannot be put on the table, how can it become a city of its own, it is generally a human tooth, if the master wants to buy a few slaves and maids to serve, the small one should take the master there." The tooth man said with a smirk.

"Take me there!"

This time, the tooth man took Wang Zhi to an alley, entered the courtyard, and immediately someone greeted him, and when he saw Wang Zhi's strange outfit, he was stunned for a moment, and the tooth man immediately went over to talk to him, and then he walked towards Wang Zhi, "Dare to ask what kind of person this master wants to buy?" Is it a working servant or a maid serving tea and pouring water? ”

"Sixteen and under, all of them?"

"Do you really want them all?" The man couldn't believe it, in a small county like this, there are not many adults who sell themselves, most of them are children who are sold by their parents and relatives, and there are also war orphans born out of border conflicts, he has hundreds of such people here, and many of them are good embryos that are ready to be sent to the south, and the price is not low, "Master, under the age of sixteen, I have hundreds of people here, do you want them all?" ”

"So much?" Wang Zhi was also a little surprised, not that he was worried that he couldn't afford it, but that he was worried that there were too many people and that the yard couldn't be accommodated!

Seeing Wang Zhi's reaction, the man thought that Wang Zhi was too much, so he said, "Master, I'll call everyone out and let you choose." ”

"Bring everyone out!"

Hearing this, the man immediately entered the house, and after a while, someone pressed some children out, both men and women, the tallest of these children was less than one meter five, and the shortest was less than one meter, and no one was crying, all of them looked numb.

More than 100 people, standing together densely, it doesn't seem to be much, it is probably the number of people in two classes when Wang Zhi went to school before, and after reading it quickly, there are no disabilities and obvious intellectual disabilities, so he said to that person: "I want these people, you can make a price!" ”

"Master, do you really want it?" People don't believe it, where is there a buyer who buys so many people at once, and they are all half-old children, not that the money is poor, the key is what these children buy for what they do, they can't do much work and eat a lot.

"You just have to bid, are you still afraid that the Sprinkle family won't be able to get the silver?" Wang Zhi said in the tone of a good man in Liangshan.

"There are a total of one hundred and forty-three people, and I don't dare to deceive the master, but there are more than a dozen good goods that were originally planned to be sent to the south......"

Ren Yazi was gushing and explaining why he wanted so much money, but Wang Zhi interrupted it impatiently: "How much is it in silver?" ”

Hearing this, Ren Yazi was stunned for a moment, and then he converted it in his heart, and after calculating, he said: "At the moment, one tael of silver can be exchanged for two hundred wen, and if it is full silver, only eight hundred and thirty taels will be charged to the master." ”

"But do you want the little one to send someone to send the master back to the house to get the silver?"

"No need, what do I have?"

As he spoke, Wang Zhi put his hand into his arms, took out a piece of silver collar, and threw it on the ground, and then continued to take out a piece and threw it on the ground, until he took sixteen pieces, and then said to the people who stayed there: "Don't go and weigh it yet." ”

Ren Yazi was stunned for a while before he reacted, and hurriedly responded, "The little one will go." ”

Immediately went into the house and took out a big scale, picked up the silver collars on the ground and weighed them one by one, and finally summed it up, and reported a number to Wang Zhi, "Master, these silver are a total of eight hundred and twenty taels, and the remaining ten taels are exempted by the master." ”

Ren Yazi smiled very flatteringly, Wang Zhi had just taken out more than fifty catties of silver from his arms and the action had already calmed them, this martial arts master who could either carry more than fifty catties of heavy objects with him, or a great immortal who could conjure silver out of thin air, all belonged to the characters to please him.

"I took them away......"

Wang Zhi was about to go back with the people he bought, but suddenly heard the sound of fireworks exploding from the sky, and then the second sound came, this kind of fireworks are only in Zhao Lingyun's hands in this world, and something happened to her.

Wang Zhi immediately took out any door and warned the traffickers who saw him taking things out of thin air: "Stay here honestly, if I come back and see no one there, they will be sent to hell and will not be able to live forever." "I just thought about the yard I had just rented, and opened any door.
