Chapter 242 Slave Market
You still enter the city from the second Zhuque Gate. Inside the port near the city gate is the Jinhua City Slave Market.
Jin Ling came here once, and that time he bought the demon slave Xiao Li. Now, since Hong Yue was taken away by Qing Ling, Xiao Li completely replaced Hong Yue's role when he went out to hunt monsters.
The specialty of sensitive breathing has been brought to the extreme.
There are about fifty or sixty slave stalls in this market. There are thousands of slaves for sale. Most of them are foreign races. Their appearance is completely different from the people of the Yanzhao Immortal Kingdom. Some are extremely tall and have ferocious faces;
Half-man, half-beast, there are still many incompletely evolved beast characteristics left in the body. There are many kinds of them. Some are normal humans, but they are criminals, prisoners of war, etc. There are immortals and mortals.
"What kind of escort do you want?" Shang Ran asked.
"Loyal, there is no doubt that this is the first priority." Jin Ling said, "I don't want the guard I bought with money to end up becoming a thief."
"When it comes to loyalty, no one in any profession is as good as a soldier." Shang Ran said, "As far as I know, there are some soldiers and immortals who have been soldiers for sale in this slave market. You may wish to consider it."
"A sergeant is an extremely proud profession. He would rather die than surrender. There is no word surrender in the dictionary of a soldier, let alone being reduced to a slave?" Jin Ling asked strangely.
"I made a mistake." Shang Ran remembered something, his face became hesitant and embarrassed, and then he whispered, "They are from the previous dynasty."
Jin Ling was stunned.
The previous dynasty was naturally his father's Jin Dynasty. Those immortal warriors and sergeants turned out to be his father's subordinates. Was his subordinates treated as slaves and sold in this slave market?
Thinking of this, a surge of anger rushed from the bottom of my heart to my forehead.
"You have lived in Jinhua City for a long time, so you must be familiar with it. Take me to see where these people are for sale." Jin Ling said, and quickly added, "I like the most loyal soldiers who take obeying orders as their bounden duty. If they
It would be great to be my guard and subordinate."
Shang Ran looked at the young man in astonishment and slapped his forehead. He really had nothing to mention about being a soldier.
After walking around the slave market, I met the clerk from the shop where Xiaoli was originally sold. The clerk recognized him, nodded and bowed, and greeted him with a smile.
Jin Ling didn't show any emotion at all, and just brushed him off as if he were nothing.
After walking a few more stores, outside a dilapidated thatched cottage-like slave-selling shop, Jin Ling finally saw the former soldiers of the dynasty who were sold into slavery as Shang Ran said.
There were about 17 or 18 sergeants, unkempt and disheveled, ranging in age from 25 to 37. They were all wearing fine iron shackles on their hands and feet, and there were many bloodstains on their bodies, both old and new.
Using the Qi Watching Technique, one can easily see that their immortal cultivation level is probably at the level of an intermediate immortal to a junior immortal.
Among them, there are four people who are junior immortal masters.
These sergeants lowered their heads and said nothing, as if they felt that as a sergeant and a fairy, it was a very shameful thing to be treated as a slave and sold on the street like this.
Few people care about them. After all, they are sergeants from the previous dynasty, driven by the Jin clan's remnants. They were sold into slavery without being punished. But even so, it cannot cover up their past mistakes. Buyers don't want to bear any consequences.
Necessary trouble.
Jin Ling was watching them. A fat and ferocious man who was looking after them saw someone paying attention. He hurriedly grabbed a whip made of fine wire from the side of the bed and whipped it at them desperately.
While smoking, he also cursed: "You stinky pigs! Cheer up and show the young master a good look! Maybe if the young master is careful and kind, he will buy you back."
"Don't hit them!" Jin Ling hurriedly shouted at him.
"Master, you don't know, these bitches won't be obedient unless they are beaten!" The fat guy continued to wave his whip, making the sergeants dodge, "Master, you see, they are very agile. After buying them,
Sign a master-slave contract in your mind, and they will definitely be as obedient as a pack of dogs!"
"The master-slave contract, isn't it for demon pets?" Jin Ling asked.
"It was originally used on demon pets. With a few modifications, it can be used on humans," the fat guy said.
said.
"After all, we are human beings, so this is not good."
"Hey, young master, to be honest, the magic pet is much more valuable than them! Sign a master-slave contract with them in your mind, and the buyer can buy with confidence! It can also ensure that they, the cheap slaves, will not rebel if they have any objections.
If your heart activates the contract, they will immediately become idiots!"
"How many sergeants like this do you have here?" Jin Ling asked.
Hearing what he said, the fat man was overjoyed. This boss wanted to keep the rhythm of the circle. He hurriedly said: "The nineteen people here in front are all first-class goods. In the small shed behind the store, there are some thinner ones.
, some also had some minor illnesses and minor injuries, the total number should be more than thirty, thirty-six or thirty-nine, I forgot."
"Bring them all out and let me take a look." Jin Ling said, taking out a bag of gold coins from the ring, "If you are satisfied, money will not be a problem."
The fat guy was overjoyed. He quickly entered the store and, together with three other guys, brought out nearly twenty other immortal slaves. As expected, these people were worse than the previous batch in the store, and many of them were juniors.
Immortal.
Some of them were seriously injured and did not receive much treatment. The wounds continued to pus and bleed, and the stench was overwhelming.
"I'll take it no matter how much!" Jin Ling made up his mind with just a glance.
"You're crazy!" Shang Ran hurriedly pulled his clothes from behind, "Just pick three or five of them and take them all back, so that someone who is interested will see them and think you are recruiting troops to rebel!"
"Since their store dares to sell these people, of course they will take these issues into consideration." Jin Ling said to the fat guy, "Is this true? Is it true that if I buy the Xiannu sold by your family, I will rebel?
"
"Rebellion?" The fat guy was startled, "No! Of course not!"
He looked around and said in a low voice: "My husband has a close relationship with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment. These sergeant slaves were sold with the approval of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment, and the money earned from the sale will be used as military pay!
Since we dare to put them up for sale, young master, feel free to buy them back. Of course, their whereabouts must also be clearly registered so that there is a record for investigation."
"I want it all, how much!" Jin Ling said again.
Shang Ran looked at him worriedly.
"Our store usually sells products according to their cultivation level. Junior Immortal, one thousand one hundred gold yuan; Senior Immortal, eight hundred and fifty gold yuan; Intermediate Immortal, five hundred and fifty gold yuan; Junior Immortal, one and five
Ten gold dollars. The total price of these thirty-nine people is about fourteen thousand one hundred gold dollars. Master, are you sure you want to buy them all?"
The fat guy rubbed his hands and asked as if he was a little embarrassed.
"It's so expensive." Jin Ling had to hesitate. If he wanted to buy them all, he would have to misappropriate the money from Jinyuan Bank, which would leave the bank with great risks. If there was a sudden run on depositors,
It's simply impossible to pay.
"Don't worry, you have Her Royal Highness the Princess by your side to help."
