Chapter 35 People are like objects

Shen Ming walked to the counter on the left, where stood a graceful and graceful, budding woman, one meter seven tall, with delicate facial features, about twenty-seven, seeing her smile slightly, like a blooming rose.

"You're so handsome, do you need any help?"

The woman looked at Shen Ming coming, her eyes lit up, and she immediately straightened her waist, and the two "mountain peaks" in front of her shook slightly, exuding a seductive aura.

"Hello, may I ask if there is a room, just a bed, just stay for one night." Shen Ming walked up to the woman and asked softly, in the face of such a charming and delicate beauty, there was not a trace of turmoil in his heart.

"Yes, you can wait......"

"Handsome guy, this is your room number and key, and the price is one gold coin, but seeing that you are very fresh, it should be the first time to come, give you a discount, fifty silver coins." The woman said enthusiastically.

"That's good, then I'm welcome, thank you, sister." Shen Ming thanked politely, but unexpectedly, this sister directly made the woman's face flush slightly.

"You're welcome." The woman pretended to be calm, but in fact, the deer in her heart collided, as if she had returned to the feeling of first love.

After completing the check-in procedures, Shen Ming took the key to room No. 4 on the third floor, and there were people coming and going in the corridor, all of them were brightly dressed, and they were wearing jade pendants on their waists, they should all be rich children with fine clothes and fine food.

After a while, Shen Ming found the room, and when he was about to insert the key, suddenly there was a "boom" next to him.

Shen Ming turned his head and saw that it was a little girl about eighteen years old who fell to the ground carrying a large bag and a small bag.

The little girl was dressed simply, with signs of sewing everywhere, and in front of her stood two men with long hair and a charming woman, both dressed in white, holding white swords, and carrying a silver badge on their chests, which were bright and vigorous, in stark contrast to the little girl.

Seeing that they were empty-handed, their eyes glancing at the fallen little girl, and casting a disdainful glance at her, the little girl should be their retinue, as expected.

Shen Ming saw that there was no one to help, out of kindness, he walked to the little girl, gently helped her up, and squatted down to help her pick up the burden on the ground.

"Are you alright?" Shen Ming asked with concern.

"I'm fine, thank you, Childe."

The little girl thanked softly, a little flustered, probably afraid of being punished. When she wanted to get the burden back, Shen Ming didn't give it to her, probably a little unaccustomed to it, although this matter had nothing to do with him, he still faced the two men and a woman, and asked indignantly:

"Hey, I said that you two big men, such a heavy burden, let a little girl take it, why are you embarrassed, she won't help her if she falls?"

"Stinky boy, I advise you to be nosy, she is a cheap maid bought by Young Master Ben, what does Young Master Ben tell her to do, she has to obey, what's your business?!" One of the men with sword eyebrows and tiger eyes took two steps forward and said disdainfully.

Shen Ming's eyes swept up a trace of contempt, seeing that he looked chic and dignified, but he didn't expect that his conduct was thousands of miles away.

"People are not objects, so how can they be bought and sold at will?"

Shen Ming asked, when the other party heard it, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other and laugh, the laughter was full of ridicule, mocking this hairy boy who was not experienced in the world, I don't know which mountain and countryside he came from, and he spoke so naively.

In troubled times, people are bought and sold as goods, it is normal, those who are humble and incompetent, their fate has long been doomed, either starved to death, or oppressed to death, or reduced to slavery, following the powerful and rich family, maybe there is a glimmer of life.

Shen Ming couldn't hear these sarcastic smiles, but in his cognition, people should be equal.

"What's wrong with you?"

Another man with clear eyebrows said, but he didn't go anywhere, with the mood of watching the play, as the so-called business is not his business, then hang it high.

"Little brother, seeing that you look so good-looking, why do you have to care about such meaningless idle things, do you want to come in with us for a cup of tea and talk about life."

The woman took two steps forward and scratched her head.

"Drink tea, I don't have that leisure, since you bought this little girl, well, please make a price, I'll buy it." Shen Ming said expressionlessly.

"What, you're going to buy this slave? Haha..."

When the sword-eyed man and the enchanting woman heard this, they couldn't help laughing, while the man with clear eyebrows teased on the side:

"I said little brother, if you want to play, you have to look at the goods, like her, there are a lot of them on the street, it's better to go to the Qinglou, I think it's better than her, right?"

When the little girl heard it, she was only willing to make a sound, and she didn't dare to make a sound, miserable tears flashed in the corners of her eyes, as a slave, how could she be qualified to speak, how dare she resist, and she was already thankful that she had something to eat.

But today, someone came forward for her, this person is still unfinished, and I can't help but feel warm in my heart, it turns out that there are still good people in this world.

"Childe, thank you for your kindness, the little girl has nothing to repay, so she won't bother Childe to break the bank."

"It's none of your business, I volunteered." Shen Ming said lightly, seeing that his fists were clenched, his eyebrows were cold, and the anger in his heart was about to move.

Fortunately, he has a calm heart, and if he were an ordinary person, he would have erupted a long time ago, how could he stand such slander from others.

"I'll just ask you, do you sell or not?!"

Shen Ming asked in a fierce voice, too lazy to pay attention to their foul language, and there was no need to argue with them, that would only be a waste of time and saliva.

"Sell, give this young master forty gold coins, this cheap maid is yours." The sword-eyed man was suddenly very happy, but a greedy smile appeared on his face.

"Forty pieces of gold?"

The little girl was angry and whispered, "At that time, you only gave me twenty gold coins......

After Shen Ming heard this, his eyes were disdainful, and he sneered, "You are really shameless to sit on the ground and raise the price!" ”

"That's right, Young Master Ben is just shameless, what can you do with me, if you want to buy it, quickly take out forty gold coins, if you don't buy it, I'll get out of the way, don't waste time!" The sword-eyed man became irritable.

"Okay, forty is forty!"

Shen Ming was quite angry, but he was helpless, if he wanted to redeem the little girl's freedom, he could only let others slaughter her, if he could, he really wanted to beat up this unscrupulous profiteer, but think about it calmly, when you go out, more is better than less, don't look for trouble.

Unless you can't bear it, then you don't need to endure it anymore!

In the end, Shen Ming took out forty gold coins to redeem the little girl who was powerless, the little girl watched Shen Ming almost take out all her net worth, and couldn't help but shed tears of emotion, how could she let a stranger pay like this? If Shen Ming was like what they said, he bought himself back just for fun, and forty gold coins could buy two or three like her, so why should he be angry with others?

After receiving the money, the sword-eyed man snorted and said, "What a fool, let's go!" ”

After the bewitching woman took back the burden from Shen Ming's hand, she left closely.

When leaving, the man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes who was watching from the wall turned sideways to face Shen Ming, shook his head and said softly:

"Little brother, I kindly advise you, don't meddle in the future, otherwise you will suffer a big loss, as long as you live in troubled times, this kind of thing will emerge in endlessly, repeatedly, and the root cause will not be cured, everything is in vain."

"You can save her, what about the next one?"

After Shen Ming heard this, coldness welled up in his heart, it seemed that this world was even more cruel than he imagined, but for him, even if this kind of thing happened thousands of times, as long as he encountered it, he could not stand by and watch what could be changed!

But what the man said was right, treating the symptoms but not the root cause, people are like objects, bought and sold at will, if you want to change this sad world, you have to start from the essence.

Therefore, an unrealistic idea has already sprouted in Shen Ming's heart, if he can, he will definitely reshape the rules of this world!
