Chapter 231: Little Calamity (Part II)
"Well, I know that you are thinking about everyone in Kuller, but you also know that you will not be able to stand it if you stay here any longer, and we must send this little scourge out quickly, or one day we may mutinied, or someone will run away from the group. ”
Speaking of this, the captain could only sigh.
"No, let's transfer the remaining slaves to the slave traders in the city tonight, and then leave for two months on the other side of the border...... I don't believe that there is any nobleman in this Vanchy County who has the ability to hunt down and kill across borders!"
If Lockin were here, he would be angry that they were trying to divert the Calamity, but at the same time, he would have agreed with the captain's words.
If only from a nominal point of view, the Duchy of Lothar is still a vassal state of the Anson Empire, but Luo Ming killed a young nobleman in the Anson Empire, that guy's family is not small, but when Luo Ming came to the Duchy, he was never hunted down or disturbed.
Not to mention transnational, even if it is a force that can hunt down someone across counties, there are no more than a hundred in the entire principality, and most of them are just paying a lot of money to hire people to hunt them down.
Because, if you can casually chase and kill someone across counties, it means that this power is very large, enough to radiate more than one county, and most of the nobles in the entire county will obey this force, not to mention, even the surrounding counties will have people follow, this is a powerful local mountain.
If you think about it, you can understand that the size of the counties divided into counties in the principality is generally determined by the ability to accommodate the next earl and a number of viscounts and barons. If he also has a strong influence outside the county, it will be more than the level of an earl, and he will truly become a great nobleman who can make trouble at the level of the entire principality.
On the other side, Luo Ming walked in front of the slave girls who seemed to be high-end in the slave hunting team, and pointed out the shortcomings one by one, as if he seemed to be very picky.
In fact, it is Aya who is picky, and her opinion on the quality of female slaves is not very consistent with the standards of ordinary people.
Luo Mingdu thought for a moment whether he should simply find someone to secretly dig up the grave of a noblewoman who had just been buried - but it would take a lot of effort to restore the body of the deceased, and he would not let others know about it in the future, and the province would become a strange story of "the noblelady faked her death and eloped with a young man".
The difficulty was too high, and although Aya didn't mind using the dead body, the aftermath was too troublesome, and the two finally gave up.
Just when Luo Ming felt that there was little hope, the slave catcher revealed to him that there was another female slave girl of unusually high quality, and patted her chest to assure that she was not sold only because someone had decided to order, but the family was powerful, so the order was canceled.
Luo Ming was keenly aware that there was something wrong with this, but he didn't care.
Relying on illusion to make people think that an ugly girl is beautiful and pay a high price, or that beauty itself has a special skill, she can run away in the middle of the night, and after a few days she can be sold for a second time...... It is estimated that all kinds of fraud methods exist, but Luo Ming is confident that he can see through these tricks.
"Take me to see it!" he said unceremoniously, almost in a commanding tone.
But the people of the slave catcher team didn't think there was anything wrong with it - making money came first, and Luo Ming was still a noble lord. The noble lord is satisfied in the process of giving orders, and then the slave catchers can be satisfied when they take the money, which is also a thing that everyone is happy about.
After stepping out of a corridor that had been almost rudimentarily built into a prison, Luo Ming came to the door of another neat and bright room.
Although he had heard of slave traders giving a few high-ranking slaves the same privileges as VIPs, Luo Ming was shocked when he actually saw them—at least the accommodation he lived in when he was a mercenary with Grant was not as good as it was here.
But then again, even the most delicate birdcage is just a birdcage. Although life will be subject to certain constraints in the world, there is a qualitative difference in degree.
Even birds that seem to be free to the extreme can hardly fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters, let alone dive hundreds of meters underwater. Just like in life, you will always be bound by the law, your relationships, and even your own scarce wallet.
But not having the money to travel far away and being locked up in a room are certainly two completely different feelings.
Many people will complain that their hometown is remote and isolated, and is not in line with the whole country or even the world, but even among the seven billion people on the earth, there will not be a few people who will complain that the earth is remote and closed, and is not connected with the whole universe.
In fact, the sky is far away, and there is a limit to the life span of human beings, isn't it also a kind of constraint? It's just that it is difficult for ordinary people to feel it, so there will be much less resentment and complaints.
For Luo Ming, because he knew that the other world did exist, this world was not vast for him, and it could barely be regarded as a kind of constraint.
However, it is just a little depressing to move out and rent a small room after living in a big villa.
All in all, this kind of thing is simply the difference between a cage and a fence - the fence can be as wide as a kilometer, in fact, some humans will never go out of their homes thousands of kilometers away in their lives, and cattle and sheep will not feel constrained;
No matter how well they are treated, a cage is a cage, and it is completely different from a fence, and the girl who is kept in this room as if she is under house arrest is quite pitiful......
Although as a good person, Luo Ming did have a momentary pity, but this pity was quickly erased by cold realist thinking.
How many unfortunate women who were caught were killed on the spot by the slave team just because they did not have a beautiful enough face, and there was no possibility of even bringing them back to sell, and the number of victims must be in the thousands.
There are also destitute people everywhere, who want to sell their bodies and lives, and even their souls before starving to death, just to get a full meal, but the results are not available - even in the great famine years when a piece of black bread can induce a man to sell himself into slavery, the nobles who sit on the granaries will carefully choose the good ones as slaves, and let the rest of the people fend for themselves.
Most people are in a state of wanting to be slaves but cannot get them, so they starve to death, and they have accumulated from generation to generation, and I am afraid that there are tens of millions.
In such a comparison, it seems that if she wants to say miserable, she can only be regarded as the last class.
