Chapter 124 Buying Slaves
The slave market in Blue City looked deserted. There were only a dozen or so customers picking slaves on the street, and quite a few slave traders gathered together in twos and threes, chatting nonsense.
"The business here is very bleak!" Ye Tong glanced at Meng Cai and said with a smile.
Meng Cai smiled wryly and said: "It's indeed a bit bleak. After all, this place is too close to Falanzong. The people of the whole Blue City live and work in peace and contentment. When the practitioners come, they also abide by the rules here and will not use force easily. Even if many slaves are sent here , There are still not many sold, which is why the price of slaves is higher than that of other cities."
"Since the business is already bleak, why are slaves more expensive than other cities?" Ye Tong couldn't help asking after hearing this.
"Because some slaves can't be sold for several months, but slaves are also human beings! They need to eat, drink, and care for them while they are alive, so the price will be higher." Meng Cai explained.
"So that's how it is." Ye Tong suddenly realized, walking forward while watching the slaves in the shops.
"Brother Ye, I'll take you to a good shop. Many of the slaves there used to have very good identities, but they only became slaves after suffering hardships." Meng Cai said with a cheerful expression.
Ye Tong just waved his hands after hearing this: "The slaves we want to buy only need to be able to do physical work. By the way, you must be able to do laundry and cooking. Don't introduce me to a place where they sell everything. It’s the former Miss Qianjin, if we buy it back, we can’t offer it up, can we?”
"You're right, the little one thinks too much." Meng Cai said with a dry smile.
"I see that your kid is full of pretending to be dirty." Ye Tong lightly reprimanded.
"You're blaming me wrong. What I mean is, buy some well-educated, smart and beautiful slaves and go back. Even if you put them on your face and look at them every day, isn't it eye-catching!" Meng Cai said with a sneer.
Ye Tong ignored him this time and walked straight forward. After passing a shop that sold all slave girls, he stopped, and the shop owner immediately came out with a smile on his face.
"What's the price for your slaves here?" Ye Tong asked.
"Brother, is this the first time you come to our slave market? It's this brother Meng Cai, who used to see it often. The slaves here have the same price, and each one only needs three hundred taels of blue gold." The shop owner laughed. This replied.
"Uncle Bu, don't bully my friend. A few days ago, the price of each female slave here was only two hundred and sixty taels of blue gold. Why has it suddenly become three hundred taels now? Let me tell you." , My friend needs to buy a lot of female slaves, if you are too unscrupulous, I will take him to another shop directly." Meng Cai interrupted hastily.
"A lot? How much do you want?" The shop rolled its eyes and asked.
"Ten!" Ye Tong replied without thinking.
"Since you are friends of Brother Meng Cai, you are my friends. Each slave is two hundred and fifty taels, and ten slaves are worth two thousand five hundred taels of blue gold in total. You pay the money, and then go in and choose at will." The shop owner heard Hearing that it was a big order, he immediately became more affectionate and said with a charming smile.
"Okay!" Ye Tong waved at Yao Nu, and Yao Nu walked in directly.
Soon Ye Tong picked out ten female slaves who looked quite powerful, but they were all ordinary in appearance.
"You all follow. If you work hard in the future, you won't be bullied or abused."
As the iron chains on the wrists of the ten female slaves were opened, Ye Tong ordered.
None of the ten slave girls said a word.
Since the day they became slaves, they have been full of despair about their future lives, so each of them knows that if the new master tortures them, they can only choose to commit suicide, and if the new master is not bad, they will work hard. live, thus die.
"Brother Ye, do you still need to buy slaves?" Meng Cai asked Ye Tong again after leaving the shop.
"Buying five more male slaves, after all, they have some strength to do, and these female slaves can't do it either." Ye Tong said.
Suddenly, Ye Tong thought of Wei Weimi. Although Wei Weimi was also his slave, the other party did not have the consciousness of being a slave at all. Apart from cooking and washing, she hardly did other things every day.
"After all, he is an innate strong man! He needs to be given some special treatment."
Ye Tong thought of the scene where Wei Weimi was going through life and death by his side all the way here, and secretly decided to buy her two more personal maids, so that she would have more time to spend on cultivation.
"Meng Cai, are any of the slaves here considered cultivators?" Ye Tong asked.
"Brother Ye, are you kidding me? Even ordinary people know a little bit of kung fu! Especially those of us in Blue City, whoever is not a practitioner at the first level of qi refining will have no face to live." Meng Cai said in a strange way.
"You guys, tell me your cultivation realm." After hearing this, Ye Tong looked at the ten female slaves and asked loudly.
"Second level of Qi refining."
"First level of Qi refining."
"Second level of Qi refining."
"Third level of Qi refining."
"Second level of Qi refining."
Of the ten female slaves, only two were at the first level of Qi refining, seven were at the second level of Qi refining, and even one of them was a practitioner at the third level of Qi refining. Ye Tong never thought of this situation for a while.
"Buying five male slaves, what level of Qi refining are you going to choose? These male slaves can not only do heavy work, but also be used to guard the home." Ye Tong turned to look at Yao Nu and asked.
"Then buy someone at the sixth level of Qi refining! Best, you can also buy someone at the ninth level of Qi refining, who can be the leader of the others." Yao Nu thought for a while and replied.
"Listen clearly? Take us there!" Ye Tong nodded to Meng Cai.
"Brother Ye, it's not that I don't want to take you there, but in the entire slave market, it seems that there are no slaves of the ninth level of Qi refining for sale?" Meng Cai said with an embarrassed expression without moving.
"Who said there is no?" Not far away, a shop owner said loudly.
Meng Cai was taken aback, and hurried over with Ye Tong and others.
"Do you really have slaves of cultivators at the ninth level of qi training for sale?" Ye Tong asked.
"Bring No. 18 out." The shop owner shouted into the shop.
In the shop, there was a woman wearing shackles and her hands were also chained. She looked a little thin, her complexion was faintly pale, and her eyes moved out of it numbly.
"Female?" Ye Tong showed a strange expression.
"That's right, she's a girl. Don't look at her as thin, but she's not weak, and she has a wild temper. In order to tame her, we didn't waste much effort. At the ninth level of Qi refining, we were only one step away from breaking through to the innate realm. How about it? Brother, do you want to buy it?"
asked the shopkeeper.
Ye Tong thought about it, and felt that it would be a good choice for a woman to be the head of the nursing home, so she asked, "How much gold and silver do I need to buy her?"
"One hundred and eighty thousand taels of blue gold." The shop owner replied firmly.
"Okay! I'll buy her." Ye Tong thought for a moment, then nodded and replied.
"I see that you have a lot of slaves in your shop, are there five male slaves who are at the sixth level of Qi refining?"
Hearing Ye Tong's words, the shop owner showed a bit of regret, and said, "The two male slaves who were at the sixth level of qi refining were just sold yesterday, and now there are only seven male slaves at the seventh level of qi refining, and a dozen or so male slaves at the seventh level. A male slave with five levels of qi."
"Seventh level of Qi refining is fine. With us here, no one can overturn the sky." Ye Tong looked back at Yao Nu who was following, and replied firmly.
"We want seven male slaves at the seventh level of Qi refining. Are there any female slaves at the seventh level of Qi refining? Two more."
"It's a coincidence." The shop owner pointed to the shop and said with a smile: "A few days ago, a pair of twin sisters at the seventh level of qi refining were sent here, and they all look pretty."
"Yes, count these slaves, how many taels of blue gold do you need in total?" Ye Tong didn't care about handsome or not, and made a decision directly.
"Little brother, the total is 420,000 taels of blue gold." The shop owner calculated the total price and finally gave the total price.
"Drug slave, pay!" Ye Tong was very straightforward this time, without haggling.
Twenty slaves were gathered together after their fetters and wrist chains were untied.
Ye Tong told Yaonu in front of them: "From now on in Zhuangzi, if they are diligent and diligent, don't wrong them, give them what they should eat, and what they should wear, everyone Yue will give each of them two taels of blue silver, but if they steal and play tricks, they can be punished or killed."
"Understood!" Yao Nu realized Ye Tong's intention and said with a smile.
"If they behave well, the maximum period is twenty years, and they will be freed after twenty years." Ye Tong added.
"Okay!" Yao Nu answered happily this time.
The eyes of the twenty slaves lit up at this time. When they were slaves, they were treated better. They can only rejoice that they are lucky, but they are still ready to be slaves for life, but what Ye Tong said after The hope in their hearts was rekindled.
As slaves, what do they want most?
Nature is freedom! If they can regain their freedom, even if they have to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire, they are willing to fight with their heads up.
tens of meters away.
A young man with a jade tree facing the wind walked forward with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept across the shops. Behind him, two attendants looked stern. Although there were not many people on this road, they were still vigilant.
Suddenly, the young man's eyes swept over Ye Tong, and his eyes lit up. Then, he came to the twenty slaves standing side by side, pointed at the pair of beautiful twin sisters, and said coldly: " I want these two slaves."
The second change, asking for a monthly ticket
