Chapter 175: Strange Slave

After a while, Sandy accompanied Du Wei around the square a few times, and finally with the strong recommendation, he took Du Wei to squeeze under the high platform in the northwest corner.

"It's one of the best slave farms here. Sandy was small, struggling to tiptoe through the crowd, struggling to talk to Dewey. Although Du Wei is not very old, the bloodline of the Luo Lin family and the martial arts family makes him thin, but he is really not low.

"This has the best business, and the boss behind it is the strongest, they always get the most and best slaves, and you see, they have a good position. โ€

"What's the difference?" Du Wei wondered.

"Of course it's different!" Sandy explained with effort: "Their platform is here, and most of the days are facing the sun, the light is the best, and when people are placed below to watch and choose, the sunlight shines directly on the bodies of those slaves, and they can see it most clearly, and because of the sun, those slaves all look, even if they are yellow and thin, they seem to be a lot of gods!" Here, there are rules for who occupies what territory, you look at this house, it is at the entrance of the square, and no one who has recently bought slaves can see their house first. The one on the opposite side was also very large, but it was in the opposite direction, always on the sunny side of the day, and people always saw them when they went out...... You think, when people are all done buying and ready to go out, only to see them, business is naturally a little worse. โ€

At this time, on this large platform, a guy dressed like a clown was shouting loudly, don't look at this guy who is thin and small, and he is dressed strangely, but the voice is really not small, holding a whip in one hand, and there is a group of slaves standing on the platform behind him, all of them are all face-to-face wooden gowns, and dozens of people are tied with only one rope, obviously some "mature slaves".

Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look! These are useful fellows! Look at this head, look at this muscle! Buy them back as coolies, and as long as they are given a little bit of food, they can work like animals in heat! And everyone is a strong laborer, and they can do basic farm work! Their courage is smaller than that of a rabbit, but their strength is greater than that of an ox! Such a slave is bought back, and one of them is made by three people!"

As he spoke, the clown-like guy ran to a nearby Nannu, who was tall and had a large skeleton, and although he had lost some weight, he still looked very strong. In the face of this slave, who was two heads taller than himself, the clown slapped him as if he were a brute, and slapped him with a thumping sound, and pulled his lips apart: "Look! There is nothing wrong with it! Look at this tooth! Look at his eyes again! Three silver coins! Three silver coins will get an honest slave to do the dirtiest and hardest work for you! They can eat anything, and you can feed them by throwing a little porridge made of oatmeal every day!"

Du Wei and Ruolin discussed, the workshop behind their shop did need a few people, and was about to ask Ruolin to open his mouth to ask for the price, but Sandy quietly pulled Du Wei's sleeve and said a word silently:

"Wait. โ€

The dozen or so slaves were quickly bought by a few merchants from other places, who paid the money and sent people to the back to lead them.

Du Wei glanced at Sandy suspiciously, Sandy quietly hid behind Du Wei, and said in a low voice: "These few are not good just now! Although the one standing in the front is good, but don't you pay attention, the two in the back seem to be almost unable to stand, and there is also a standing afterwards, whose shoulders are a little tilted to the left, I'm sure that guy must have a problem with his legs and feet." Wait, there will definitely be good goods in the future. โ€

Sure enough, the second batch that came up next was indeed much stronger than the previous batch.

Sandy didn't dare to tell Du Wei anything openly, because he was still messing around the street, and if the slave traders saw him, he would get into trouble, so he just hid behind Du Wei and whispered his voice every time. Finally, when the fourth group came out, Sandy looked at it for a while and whispered, "It's okay."

The fourth group of slaves were all dark-skinned natives of the South Seas, and all of them were physically strong. However, to Du Wei's surprise, among the dozen or so slaves on the stage, three were skinny old guys. Although a few of them were strong, the three old fellows definitely couldn't do much work at first glance.

Such a group of slaves stood up, and the people below were a little reluctant to accept the price. Strong slaves are nice, but those old fellows ...... Do you want to buy it back and waste food?

Such a group of slaves stood up, and the people below were a little reluctant to accept the price, although the strong slaves were very good, but those old fellows ...... Is it a waste of food?

Du Wei glanced at Sandy, Sandy sighed, and said in a low voice: "Honorable young master, listen to me, you can buy this batch." These natives of the South Seas have a lot of strength, and those young and strong ones can work for one of the other slaves! Especially these three old ones, although they seem to be unable to do any work, but their role is beyond your imagination!"

"What?"

"I have heard that these natives of Nanyang have special respect for the elderly, and in those tribes of Nanyang, such old people are often of very high status, and may even be some kind of elder or patriarch or something! All the other young people have to listen to the orders of these old fellows, and they must have special respect. And these natives of the South Seas are particularly fond of escaping. But you buy this batch and go back, as long as there are these old ones...... You see, they're all so old that they can't run. But with them, those young slaves will not run away, because they want to take care of these old people by the side of the old fellows. These old guys bought it back, and it didn't cost much food to feed them, but those slaves would be obedient and obedient, and they wouldn't run away, and in general, it was still very cost-effective. โ€

Du Wei's eyes lit up, and he became more and more curious about this kid...... He is really smart, and at a young age, he has secretly figured out so many tricks.

"But...... Why do they have shackles on their hands?" Du Wei asked: "Those who use ropes are cooked slaves, and those who are locked in cages are raw slaves, so what is the matter with shackles?"

"This ......" Sandy scratched his scalp and said: "Generally speaking, it is raw and ripe, but even if it is a raw slave, as long as it is not locked in the cage, it means that it is not very fierce, and it is very honest, and there is no record of wanting to escape, which is relatively easy to tame." And, I'll be honest, these raw slaves are better than cooked slaves...... You know, anyone who buys a slave and goes back will not give them good food and drink, and after a long time, no matter how strong the slave is, his body will be much thinner, and no matter how strong he is, he will not be able to do it after being tossed for a year or two. And although these old guys are raw slaves, they are very honest when they watch the song, they are not caged, and they are very strong, and raw slaves are always much stronger than mature slaves. โ€

Du Wei nodded and gave Ruolin a sรจ, and Ruolin opened her mouth to answer the price.

Du Wei nodded and gave Ruolin a look, Ruolin opened her mouth to answer the price,

"Thirty silver coins. Ruolin's crisp female voice is also very unusual in the noise around her. Originally, many people secretly looked at this beautiful young woman in the crowd, and as soon as she shouted the price, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.

As soon as the slave trader heard the price being offered, he immediately exclaimed, "Oh! Thirty silver coins! This beautiful and noble lady is very knowledgeable! Look, thirty silver coins! Ladies and gentlemen, these slaves are all good goods! Thirty silver coins is a very fair price, and anyone is willing to pay more?"

"Thirty-five silver coins. A hoarse voice emerged from the crowd.

Du Wei couldn't help but smile and glanced at Sandy: "It seems that someone has the same vision as you." โ€

Sandy smiled a little embarrassedly: "Honorable young master, you are laughing." I have heard that there are a lot of people here every day, among which there are many people who know the goods, don't look at the many people who shouted before, most of those people are fat sheep from other places, stupid people don't know the market. โ€

Seeing that Du Wei nodded to himself, Ruolin received the master's signal and said loudly: "Forty silver coins." โ€

"Forty-five silver coins," the hoarse voice in the crowd asked, continuing to raise the offer.

At this time, many people around who were watching the excitement had already moved away, and Du Wei finally saw the appearance of the person who raised the price with himself.

A middle-aged man wearing a light purple robe, who looked a little fat, was very acquainted, with two mustaches on his mouth, and there were three or five strong young men standing beside him, wearing servants' clothes, surrounding the middle-aged fat man, just blocking the people around him. Although the crowd was very crowded, the place where the fat man stood was very loose, with a hint of reserve on his face, he slowly shouted out the price, and looked at Ruolin twice.

"Fifty silver coins. Ruolin said lightly.

The fat man frowned a little, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and after looking at Ruolin, he seemed to sneer: "Sixty silver coins, that's all." โ€

Sandy saw the appearance of the fat man clearly, and suddenly his face changed, and seeing that Ruolin was about to speak, he quickly pulled Ruolin and said in a low voice: "Forget it, don't shout,"
