The slave market in Kyoto of the Colorful Empire is called Batong Baishi, and the main business here is the sale of people of various ethnic groups, and what is more interesting is that this kind of trade is a legal business in various countries. The snow-white marble pavement and tall steel stone walls decorate this sordid trading place with a refreshing look that is now fashionable to say that it is high-end and high-end.

The cars at the gate of the Batong Hundred Cities are like flowing water, and the crowds of people coming in and out are endless. Accompanied by Boudkas and Duran, Boudkas finally found the best place to use his century-old fritters.

Slave culture!

The origin of slavery comes from war, which is rich in two kinds of people, captives and victims. At first, the prisoners were generally killed directly, but later because some large landowners were willing to buy these laborers, there was a human exchange, and it expanded rapidly. However, the victims of the war voluntarily sold themselves into slavery, and only had a little more chance of surviving.

In these chaotic times, misfortune is the leitmotif of the times. The idea of the law of the jungle is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and human trafficking has naturally become a legal business. As slaves increased, slaves depreciated more and more, and with it greater misfortune ensued. Young and sturdy men can also do coolies, and young and beautiful women live on skin and flesh. And as they grow old and decrepit, what awaits them after their bodies are weakened is even more miserable treatment. The well-meaning slave owners will just kick them out of their homes, and the bad ones will just sell them to the 'meat ticket'. After falling into the hands of these meat tickets, there are only two places to go! One is to become the food of the fighting beasts in the Colosseum, and the other is to be slaughtered and sold as jerky!

After listening to Budekas's explanation of slave culture, Duran only frowned slightly, while Xiaobao smiled and said, "Hehe! It seems that compared to these people, Bude, you are quite kind." The corners of his eyes jumped when he heard this, and he smiled, but he smiled so beautifully.

"Is this eldest young master here to buy slaves?" said a childish voice suddenly.

Xiaobao had long known that someone was approaching them, but he didn't care because he didn't feel hostility or threat, and he didn't expect the other party to come and talk to him.

As soon as Xiaobao turned his head, he saw a little boy with unhealthy pale skin, he had short hair that was very energetic, a white robe made of clean ordinary white cloth but looked very decent, and a pair of eyes flashed with a hint of shrewdness.

Seeing that Xiaobao didn't speak, Budkas spoke: "Young Master, this kid should be the 'lead' here, they live by leading people and introducing slaves to trade. ”

"Oh!" said Xiao Bao undoubtedly, "Boy, you know this very well?"

The little boy said confidently: "Back to this son, the boy's name is Bruru Addis, you can call me Addis." The first three generations of the boy's ancestors have been here to take the lead, and the Batong Hundred Cities are the same as the backyard of the boy's house, and there is nothing that the boy doesn't know. ”

Seeing his confident appearance, Xiaobao was also a little interested, so he asked, "In that case, Artis! Do you know that there are dwarfs sold here?"

As far as the kid knows, there are three dwarfs sold in the Batong Hundred Market, one is a dwarf specializing in meat tickets, one is a dwarf for sale, and the other is for selling high-grade dwarves, that is, young and healthy, I don't know if this young master wants that!"

Xiao Bao was originally lucky, but he didn't expect to buy it! Xiao Bao happily rewarded Ardis with a silver coin, and then said: "Young Master Ben is interested, lead the way!"

Ardis received the silver coin and immediately led the way in front with a smile on his face, and he was also a lot more enthusiastic about Xiaobao, explaining many stories in the city. Although I went through nine turns and eighteen turns, I didn't feel bored and tired because of the story told by Ardis.

A humble 'little shop' located in a small corner of the city. No one brought it, Xiaobao, they really didn't have to find it here. Unlike other shops, this one is dirty, damp, and has a disgusting stench.

An ugly and obese middle-aged uncle was holding a young girl in his arms and drinking wine while raising his hands up and down. After watching Xiaobao and the four of them arrive, they immediately changed to a flattering smile. He first pushed away the disheveled young girl in his arms, and then said with a smile: "Isn't this Ardis? ”

Ardis was obviously not surprised by the squalor here, but he skillfully put on a smile and said politely: "It's the kid, Uncle Tyke, this young master said that he wanted to buy some dwarf slaves, so I immediately thought of you! Who doesn't know, Uncle Tyke is an interracial master of Batong!"

The middle-aged man called Tiko looked smug after hearing this, and said with a smile that he couldn't hide: "Hehehe! That's!" Of course, he didn't forget Xiaobao, the gold owner, so he ran to Xiaobao with a flattering face and said: "This young master, if you want to buy a dwarf, just come to me! Other villains don't dare to guarantee it, but if you want to say that this dwarf is the best in the whole city!"

Duran gave him a disgusted look, and Budkas was a dead face that couldn't see the coldness of emotion. Xiaobao smiled slightly and said, "Boss Tico, let's take me to see the goods first!"

Tico smiled awkwardly, apologized, and then took Xiaobao and a few people into the basement where the dwarf was held. As soon as I entered, a foul smell came to my face, and even Xiaobao frowned slightly when I looked at the scene inside!

There are slaves of different races in the basement, but it is obvious that these slaves eat, drink, and sleep here, which is why it stinks so badly.

Tico saw that the faces of several people were not good, and hurriedly said: "Hehe, let a few guests laugh! It's a little dirty here, or I'll go to the guest room to take it, and the villain will take them again!"

Xiaobao glanced at Tico murderously, and said in his heart: Why did you go earlier!

Tico shuddered at the murderous look in Xiaobao's eyes, as if he had brushed shoulders with death in an instant. (The reason for this is because Xiaobao killed thousands of people back and forth in front of the Autumn Harvest City Cleaning Bureau.) )

It was only after entering Tiko's so-called 'guest room' that everyone understood why the guy didn't bring anyone here in the first place, because this was his bedroom, and there were naked girls and a young girl locked in the room. Under Duran's murderous eyes, he hurriedly covered their bodies with something, and then walked away.

Soon after, Tico came to Xiaobao with a dwarf, and Xiaobao looked at the cave man in front of him, who was only about one meter two or three tall, and showed a green skin and showed an evil smile. He gave Tiko a gold coin and sent him out of the room, and then let Addis leave.

Xiao Bao said to the cave man with an evil smile: "Do you know the human language?"

The cave man in front of Xiaobao was furious by Xiaobao, and said in fear: "Lord Hui, although the slave is not a Terran, he understands the Terran language. ”

Xiaobao said seriously: "That's good! Now that Young Master Ben has a few questions for you, you have to think carefully about answering, don't deceive or hide!"

The caveman was terrified, "Yes, my lord!"

Xiao Bao raised a few agricultural questions that he had been worried about for a long time, and although he did not get the best answers, he still determined the importance of the cave people to the development of human agriculture! Although they did not have great power, their achievements in planting were beyond the reach of the human race now. For talents, Xiaobao is absolutely respectful!

After getting the answer he wanted, Xiao Bao said with a straight expression: "Hello! Now is the time to introduce yourself, this Hou is Wei Xiaobao, the Marquis of Xiaoyao and the deputy governor of Hades, the Colorful Emperor!"

After the cave man learned Xiaobao's identity, he knelt on the ground as soon as his knees weakened, and said in fear: "Hou????? Master Hou??????"

Wei Xiaobao said very seriously: "Ben Hou asks you now, are you cave people willing to be loyal to my Colorful Empire! Of course, the empire will not treat you badly, if you are loyal to the empire and make contributions to the empire, then your clan will become civilians of the empire and no longer slaves." ”

The words no longer a slave hit the hearts of people in this cave like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, he was silent for a long time, and Xiaobao also waited quietly. Because he knew that sooner or later, the cavemen would be tied to their chariots by this temptation, and become part of the key to a new era. And he will not break his promise, let them live happily under the blue sky with the same happiness as all the tribes!
