Chapter 1131 The Unsullied
"Slaves who can fight? It's not easy to cultivate. They are all selected from the best, and the price is higher." The slave merchant heard this, and his eyes lit up.
"I know that. You just need to tell me if it's in stock, and the price can be discussed."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"The goods are available, over here."
The slave merchant led several people towards the inside of the slave market.
The group of people passed through huge wooden cages. The cages contained slaves in ragged clothes. These slaves were men, women, young and old, and of all races. Some of them could vaguely see that the original clothes were very gorgeous and of good quality. There are two other people who can vaguely see that they are wearing the original uniforms of the lobster soldiers, but now they are in tatters and are no different from beggar uniforms.
"These are officials, wealthy businessmen or deserters who made mistakes. Some were simply framed by others who coveted their wealth. According to the laws of the empire, they are already dead. The executioner casually signed an execution order and then sold them. Here, squeeze out the last bit of oil and water.”
Elizabeth quietly talked to Zhang Tuohai about science.
"Are the officials of the empire not interested in this matter?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"Who cares? Everyone has a share of profit here. As for this slave market, officials of all sizes in Pearl City, from the governor down to the guards at the port, everyone has a share of income. Who will care? Who dares to take care of it? Whoever takes care of it will be in trouble with everyone’s pocketbook. So no one takes care of it, and over time it has become like this.”
Elizabeth said.
"However, the slaves here are mainly captured from indigenous tribes, and the rest are vagrants and beggars. Didn't you notice that there is not a single beggar or vagrant in the entire Pearl City and surrounding towns? They are all here. .”
Elizabeth said, pointing to the rows of cages.
Linda couldn't help but shudder when she heard Elizabeth's words.
If she hadn't boarded Zhang Tuohai's ship, she might have gone to the city to become a wanderer, and then be caught, locked in a cage and sold as a slave.
If you are lucky, you may be bought by a lustful male master, ravage it, and then throw it to your subordinates when you are tired of playing with it. When your subordinates get tired of playing with it, you may throw it to a slave to be his wife and give birth to the next generation of slaves.
If you are unlucky, you will be sold to various clubs to work as technicians, and then tortured to death by those perverted customers.
I shudder just thinking about it.
Feeling Linda trembling, Zhang Tuohai smiled and rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry, I won't sell you. Your skills are pretty good, and you need a helper in the kitchen. In addition, we agreed It also works, within three months, if your body can gain weight, I will teach you the skills of killing horse bandits."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"Thank you." Linda whispered, with a faint sound of sobbing.
The group of people followed the slave merchant, passed through rows of wooden cages, and came to the very end, which was the highlight of the entire slave market.
The main selling point is a group of carefully trained dancers and a group of fighting slaves.
These slaves were born to slave parents. They are second or even third generation slaves. They were raised to be highly obedient. They were trained to be obedient from an early age. Only after they passed the test were they taught various skills and techniques. Each one of them was a slave. The best of the best.
"These are the battle slaves I have carefully cultivated. They are called the Unsullied. They are absolutely obedient. Even if I ask them to die, they will do it immediately. They are also very powerful in combat. Each of them can fight a lion and win. Therefore, their price is also It’s a bit higher, one costs 20,000 dinars.”
The slave merchant rubbed his hands and said.
Zhang Tuohai looked at these slaves. Unlike the previous slaves in the cages, these combat slaves called the Unsullied were not in the cages. Everyone was sitting on the ground, and everyone was wearing leather armor. Through the leather armor, The sharp-edged muscles and scars on their bodies can be vaguely seen, and shield-throwing spears and scimitars are neatly placed beside them.
"Can you show me?" Zhang Tuohai asked the slave merchant.
"Of course." The slave trader swung the whip in his hand and shouted, "Unsullied, stand up!"
Uh-huh!
The Unsullied stood up neatly, holding shields and weapons in their hands.
Everyone moves in unison, like puppets.
"Form a shield formation."
Uh-huh!
The Unsullied raised their large shields and moved closer together. The spears in their hands thrust out from the gaps in the shields, like a giant hedgehog.
"go ahead!"
Uh-huh! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
The Unsullied moved forward neatly, their shield arrays and spears advancing slowly. Even if their target was not Zhang Tuohai, Zhang Tuohai could still feel waves of murderous intent.
"receive!"
shouted the slave trader, cracking his whip.
Uh-huh!
All the Unsullied put away their weapons and shields and stood where they were.
"You can choose an Unsullied One to fight a lion, but the cost will be additional."
said the slave trader.
"Can."
Zhang Tuohai threw a bag of dinars over.
The businessman took the bag and shook it gently twice to roughly know how many dinars were in the bag, with a smile on his face.
"It'll be ready soon."
Soon, a lion was put into a wooden cage and pushed over.
The lion was obviously just captured. It was very irritable and wild. It was obviously not the kind of creature that had been tamed by the circus for a long time.
"You, go fight that lion."
Zhang Tuohai pointed at a shorter Unsullied person and said.
The Unsullied One did not move.
Snapped!
The slave trader whipped his whip to the ground: "Obey your guest's orders!"
After receiving the order, the Unsullied entered another huge cage.
The cage containing the lion was pushed to the door of the big cage, and then someone opened the door.
As soon as the lion saw the door being opened, he jumped out of the cage and rushed towards the Unsullied One.
Uh-huh!
The spear in the hand of the Unsullied stabbed straight into the lion's throat and came out from the back of the head.
Clean and neat, no unnecessary movements.
Many people even just blinked and it was over.
"The spear stabbed very steadily and accurately. It looks like he has practiced for at least ten years. The slave merchant did not lie."
Zhang Tuohai had a rough judgment on the strength of this Unsullied One.
"How many do you plan to buy?" the slave merchant asked, rubbing his hands.
"Buy them all."
Zhang Tuohai glanced at the Unsullied in the audience. There were forty in total, and the total amount was 800,000 dinars.
Well, it's equivalent to eight of his bounties.
"Really? If the customer really buys all these Unsullied Ones, I can give you a song and dance girl for free, and you can choose any one among these song and dance girls."
The slave merchant rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
Zhang Tuohai turned to look at Elizabeth: "Pay the money."
