The mansion in front of us covers a vast area, at least more than 1,000 acres, the courtyards are connected, layer upon layer, rockery ponds, Qionglou cornices, lush forests, flowers and grass...... Ning Chong nodded secretly, and asked Chen Shandao, who was full of flattering smiles on his face: "Chen Shan, it is rare that in this barren southern wilderness, you can build such a mansion in a competitive way. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info╔╗But you're not looking for me today to show me around this mansion, are you?"

"Hey, hey, hey...... Ning Chong Shaoxia really has a keen eye, everything can't be hidden from your eyes! As soon as Ning Chong Shaoxia came to this Southern Wilderness alone, there must be a lot of inconvenience in food, clothing, housing and transportation, in this regard, Xiao Jin expressed his heart a little, and planned to give this mansion to Ning Chong Shaoxia, and he didn't want to excuse Ning Chong Shaoxia!"

"Oh......"

Ning Chong smiled, he had roughly guessed Chen Shan's purpose, and at this time, Chen Shan offered to give him this mansion, and it was not too strange to arrive.

In the past few years, Ning Chong continued to treat Li Jin's poisonous injuries, and Li Jin got better quickly and was already able to get out of bed and walk on his own. And the other members of the brother mercenary group were also busy with other things, so the yard of the headquarters and other places were damaged, but Zhongjin was temporarily busy with repairs, and it was still in tatters at this time.

Chen Shan took the initiative to send this mansion at this time, and it was just in time, although Ning Chong didn't have much interest, he felt that it was very good to make a new headquarters for the brother mercenary group, and now that everything is starting to improve, it is time to have a new headquarters!

"Okay, you are so hearted, I will be disrespectful, I will accept this mansion. ╔╗”

"Thank you Shaoxia for your face!haha!"

Chen Shan laughed flatteringly. His gift-giver was happier than Ning Chong's gift-giver.

And this is indeed a fact, and it is Chen Shan's true emotion. Ning Chong's unimaginable strength, Chen Shan has seen it a long time ago, he is naturally a Jing Ming, knowing that if he is good friends with Ning Chong, even if there is no benefit, there is absolutely no harm!

The matter of the handover of this mansion naturally does not need to be done by Ning Chong, and the entry of the brother mercenary group will be done very well at that time. Therefore, after Ning Chong sent the news, he didn't mention it anymore and continued to walk in the mansion.

Chen Shan respectfully followed behind.

After taking a turn in the mansion, Chen Shan stepped forward and asked, "Ning Chong Shaoxia, are you satisfied with this mansion?"

"Well, not bad......"

Ning Chong nodded, suddenly changed the topic, and asked, "Chen Shan, how is the matter of the ancient map I told you?"

"Don't worry, young man, I have ordered all my subordinates to search for it wholeheartedly! And announced a heavy purchase! However, because the value of this ancient map is not very large, and it is even rarer than the best antiques, I am afraid that it will not be able to be found for a while......

Ning Chong naturally knew the difficulty, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, as long as you go to find it with all your heart, even if there is no result, I won't blame you." ╔╗Of course, if you steal jiān and play slippery...... Hmph!"

Ning Chong didn't finish his words, but Chen Shan already understood what it meant, and hurriedly endured the trembling in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, Shaoxia! If anyone under my command dares to be lazy against the law, I don't need Shaoxia to make a move, I will destroy them first!"

Ning Chong didn't wait long in this mansion, except for Ruan Hongfu and a few others who wanted to take care of Li Jin, Li Ming and the sixth son came in with the brother mercenary group, and everyone was happy after knowing that this mansion would become the new headquarters of their mercenary group.

After simply going through the handover formalities, the six sons and the others began to carry the things of the brothers' mercenary group back and forth into the mansion. ╔╗ Such rough work is naturally not Ning Chong's turn. And even if Ning Chong wants to go up to help, he is afraid that it will not be easy, because he is now a "hero" admired by the brother mercenary group!

Ning Chong had no choice but to be bored as a "supervisor" on the sidelines.

At this time, Chen Shan walked up again and said with a smile: "Ning Chong Shaoxia, this mansion is not big, but it is not small, how can you also need a few servants to serve the life of the young man, the young man can consider it and buy a few well-behaved slaves." ”

Chen Shan's words are also reasonable, such a large mansion, if there are only members of the brother mercenary group, and few people enter it with their hands and feet, it is unimaginable.

As for the crowd of the Wulai mercenary group, although it is said that it is a three-year slave atonement, it is basically only used in battles, tasks, etc., counting on this group of rough men to cook on the fire, trim and weed, it is better to split a rope and hang them directly!

Nodding slightly, Ning Chong looked at Chen Shan and asked, "Why, your mercenary city is still in the business of selling entrances?"

"Hehe, don't be surprised, this is not a secret in our mercenary city, and even this is the main business of many mercenary groups!"

"Oh...... Then I'll go check it out. ╔╗”

"Okay, okay, I'll lead the way for the young man!"

Ning Chong followed Chen Shan and was just about to walk out of the door of the mansion, when Li Ming ran over.

These days, this young man and Ning Chong are becoming more and more familiar, and in the worship of idols, he always sticks to Ning Chong when he has time, just now he obviously heard the conversation between Ning Chong and Chen Shan, and begged as soon as he opened his mouth: "Brother Ning Chong, can you take me with you? I also want to see and see!"

A trivial matter, Ning Chong smiled: "Okay." ”

Hearing that Ning Chong agreed, Li Ming danced happily.

After that, there were several members of the brother mercenary group who were about the same age as Li Ming, and they couldn't bear to be active, and followed Ning Chong to have a long experience.

Under the leadership of Chen Shan, this small team marched all the way to the west of the mercenary city. ╔╗

With Chen Shan here, everything went smoothly, and there were no obstacles and expenses, Ning Chong and others crossed the city pass and entered the west of the city.

After walking for a while, I turned a corner, and in the dense buildings in front of me, a huge market finally appeared, and from a long distance, you could hear the noise and noise coming.

Ning Chong waited for a while, and when he got closer, he saw a huge stone pillar erected at the entrance of the huge market, and several large characters with peeling paint were engraved on the stone pillars: "Slave Trading Market".

Ning Chong took a closer look at these big characters with some history, and there were some strokes, which were definitely not from Chen Shan's hand. Thinking of the chicken-like characters on the gate of the City of Mercenaries, Ning Chong couldn't help but be happy, glanced at Chen Shan, and laughed.

Chen Shan seemed to understand the meaning of Ning Chong's laughter, his face flushed slightly, and Qian smiled and explained: "Shaoxia, the history of this slave market is older than the mercenary city, and these words are said to have been left by a powerful mercenary Gao Jin hundreds of years ago. ”

When Chen Shan explained, Zhong Jin had already entered the slave market, but saw that although this huge market was bustling and prosperous, it was not too chaotic, because many famous mercenary groups were patrolling it to maintain order in the market.

A thousand years ago, the Great Qian's Empire was enslaved by Fengjin, and all the Great Qianjin became the slaves of Fengjin, and Fengjin rode on the head of the Great Qianjin as a prestige and a blessing, and was a "master", even if it was an ordinary person, he could do nothing, and be supported by the Daqianjin on time.

At the time, this situation was proudly called "harvesting dry iron crops."

There is no doubt that although the great cadres at that time, although they did not say it explicitly, they had essentially been reduced to "slaves" who entered the wind, and no matter what they did or how they were treated, they were no different from "slaves".

It is precisely because of this humiliating history that since the recovery of Taizu, the law of the Great Qian Empire has clearly stipulated that the import and sale of goods are prohibited, and any nobles and ordinary people are prohibited from owning slaves.

So far, the laws of the Great Qian Empire in this regard are still extremely strict, and a family like the Ning family can only hire a subordinate slave with a lot of ziyou, and such a subordinate slave can be much higher than the status of a slave, and only when he makes a mistake will he be punished and killed.

And those big families and big forces, although there are actual "mine slaves" and other slaves, they dare not be blatant.

This Southern Wilderness is located in the Great Qian Empire, isolated from 100,000 mountains, and is not subordinate to the Great Qian, so it is not surprising that there is such a large-scale slave trading market in the Southern Wilderness.

Ning Chong's understanding of slaves is basically only in books and stories, and he only knows that the life of slaves is extremely miserable, but he has no actual impression, and now he has the opportunity to really see it.

At this time, the market is crowded, and the shouts and bargains of buying and selling are endless.

Since it is a slave trading market, slaves are naturally traded commodities, which is the biggest difference from other markets.

As far as the eye can see, the stalls in this market are very large and neat. The design of the booth is basically based on the mercenary group, except for a few strong mercenary groups, it is also similar, there is a large display wooden platform, the platform is to display the slaves who are bound hand and foot.

In each stall, there will be more or less mercenaries, viciously patrolling back and forth, preventing slave riots and maintaining order at the same time, preventing enemies from entering and causing trouble. In front of the wooden platform, there are several members of the mercenary group who can speak well, and they are responsible for negotiating the transaction and determining the price.

As for those who came to buy slaves, they were extremely complex, and they basically wore gold and silver, and they were richly dressed, and they knew at a glance that they were rich in life, and they did not worry about food and clothing.

After the wooden platform of the stall, there is usually a wooden shed, etc., and the wooden shed is full of slaves, and the slaves who are ready to be sold are standing on the wooden platform.

Walking all the way, Ning Chong's brows were calm from time to time, almost all of the slaves he saw were unclothed, most of the men were wearing their upper bodies, and the women only barely had a few pieces of tattered clothes to cover the important parts.

And in a few stalls, Ning Chong even saw some female slaves standing naked on the wooden platform, trembling in the eyes of the people who came and went. And the trembling of these female slaves not only did not cause any miserliness in the entry, but the crowd who came and went laughed and cursed, whistled, and even directly burst into foul language.
