Chapter 574: Migration Tide (4)
On November 22, Binh Duong's human resources trading market is mostly simply called the human market.
The human market, in fact, is composed of four large warehouses, twelve human resources companies jointly paid for the rental of these four warehouses, and renovated, the warehouse up to 13 meters was converted into a three-story building, open up to each other, forming the existing labor market.
With the implementation of slavery and the influx of large numbers of outsiders with ships, the number of slaves in the Northeast reached four million, accounting for one-third of the current population, and there was a growing drive, especially for those who had tasted the sweetness of slavery, to raise their voices and appeal to the government.
At first, it was to ask for the abolition of the two-year slave system, but this was strongly resisted by Li Yang, and finally changed to unity After negotiation, the slave can renew it if he wishes.
In the end, what really abolished the original slavery was the number of slaves owned by individuals, but at the same time, the minimum standard of treatment of slaves was raised, and the survival of slaves was further ensured.
With the formalization, scale, and production of the slave trade, the human market has also entered the formalization, a large number of manpower companies and slave traders have emerged, the open and secret rules of the industry have emerged spontaneously, slaves are classified, there is no craft, and the appearance is mediocre, they can only be divided into mining areas, and even farming land can not be obtained, because now the farmland is owned by farmers who are not rich, and they should let what they need is people who can do farm work, and most of these slaves are urban people, how many are good crops? Therefore, a good cropper is also very popular.
The business of the human market is very hot, a large number of slaves come in and out every day, of course, the largest are those low-level slaves, sent to the mine and the construction site to work for two years, if you are tired and do not die, you are thinking about your future life, but the situation in the Northeast is changing with each passing day, who would have thought that the Northeast Army would be able to fight anywhere after two years?
I'm afraid I can't really take the whole of the Northeast.
"Cen Laosi, you picked up more than 300 slaves from Lu Fatzi last week, how is it, is there any good goods? It's all from our Han nationality, so you can sell it for a price just a bite of Chinese. ”
As soon as the manager of a human resources company approached the scope of the human market, someone greeted him.
The manager smiled and popped out a cigarette, signaling his two thugs to go in with dozens of slaves and get to their places, and he chatted with them.
"Don't mention it, Fat Lu is slippery and tight, knowing that his batch of goods is good, he chose to underwrite, so many days, I sold more than 100 laborers, more than 80 serfs, the price of serfs is not high, they are all half-born hands with a little experience, if it is not for the flow of Chinese words, it is not easy to sell."
"And what about the rest?" That person's eyes lit up, and this person could see that the dozens of people who went in just now were all carefully dressed up and cleaned by Cen Laosi, all of whom had been trained and had training value, which meant that they were all good goods.
"It's considered a medium color, it's still enough to be a small servant for a big family, and it's not bad for a small family to buy one back as a concubine or housekeeper."
Several people who heard the words looked at each other with eyebrows, and said, "There are no high-end goods?" Just now I could see people wearing veils, and those girls were in good shape. ”
This is a trade secret, how could Cen Laosi, an old oilman, be fooled, laughed a few words, and inquired about today's market, are there any special buyers, these people are small slave traders, there are a few slaves in their hands, there is no capital to hoard and train slaves, and they usually do some intermediary trading at the door.
"Brothers, if you want to buy a woman or a housekeeper, even if you get it from me, the deal is sold, and I always pay the intermediary fee." The man finished his cigarette, threw it on the ground and stepped on it, patted his thick money bag, and walked inside.
There are stalls everywhere, each stall is very large, the size of an acre of land, a booth, a place to rest, and some in order to introduce their own slaves, there are stone piers on the ground to test their strength, a thick piece of land to simulate crops, and there are coffee tables and sofas, as well as abacus account books or something, all kinds of furnishings, the purpose is to sell the slaves and sell them for a good price.
Cen Laosi sat on his counter, he pointed to this batch of goods to get promoted to make a fortune, he is now only one of the seventeen managers in the company, if his batch is sold at a good price, he can become a senior manager, and in the future, he will be able to sell high-end goods and train high-end goods, so that he can gain a firm foothold in this industry.
This batch of goods, what he sold a few days ago were all low-grade goods, or those that were not very plastic, and the rest of them were worthy of training and cultivation value.
"Show yourself well, whether you can have a good boss depends on your own table, I, Cen Si'er, don't raise waste, you people, I only sell it for a week, and after a week, I will pack the rest and send it to the coal mine, whether you can survive for two years depends on whether you are hard enough."
The people left behind were carefully trained by him, telling them what kind of slaves were the best here, some slaves lived better than the lives of free people, and now slaves are accepted by the majority of the common people, and more people, who choose to hire slaves, will not hire those free people, not to mention the high wages of free people, and if the welfare benefits do not keep up, they will have to bear the requirements of public opinion and the law.
Therefore, there are many third-class household registration people, they can't receive the subsistence allowance, they wander for a long time, and finally have to sell themselves as slaves, just in exchange for a job that can make a living, of course, the money from self-sale can be privately owned, the minimum property security system for slaves, there is still a system, and the property obtained through legal channels is still protected by the law, even as a master, it is not allowed to infringe on it without reason.
These people also know that they have no choice but to be slaves, and since they have no choice, they have to sell themselves more expensively, so that their living conditions are better, after all, here, although they have no dignity, but they have been given a safe environment, a human society, a place to be satisfied.
Think about these days, although they have been learning all kinds of things, but the treatment of rice and broth every day, so that they have no regrets, when they first got on the ship, they were told that they came here to be slaves, but they can ensure the safety of their lives and have food to eat, that is enough, they live in this last world, what more do they want?
Could it be that when you stay on the treasure island and want to open your eyes every day, the demon doesn't come? Are the zombies coming?
The walls didn't give them the slightest sense of security, and they felt more like pigs in their own captivity. R1148
