203 No one cares

After the transaction was established, Chen Xiansong not only walked out of the cage, but also got two black breads. He only ate one, and tore the other into several pieces, and distributed them to the thin women in the cage.Seeing them carefully, as if they were holding the most precious thing in the world, and sipping small bites, Chen Xiansong was in a complicated mood.

Molly stood aside, watched his actions, and asked curiously: "You don't even have enough to eat, why do you help them?"

"I can't die from starvation if I eat a piece of bread less, but if they eat less food, maybe they will really starve and get sick." Chen Xiansong turned his head and asked curiously: "Everyone is a slave, why does my treatment seem to be different? Much better than them?" When Chen Xiansong was imprisoned, the cage was bigger than theirs, and it was still a 'single room' with black cloth shades.

"You're valuable, they're not." Molly shook his head, "It's not bad if they can sell five silver coins. This time, if you're lucky and the weather is good for the road, you can get there in about a month. Yu, it will take almost two months to reach the destination, what if we feed them too well and they can’t sell it, and we can’t make any money.”

It has long been mentioned in history books that human trafficking was a very common thing in the feudal era, and it was full of blood and tears of slaves.In the past, he just looked at the black and white pictures in the e-book, and at most he was a little emotional, but now he saw those dirty, skinny girls in the cage, ghosts and ghosts, numb as if they had lost their souls Or when it comes to women, it has been greatly impacted. [

"Actually, I think letting them come out and work for you will create more value than selling them." Chen Xiansong tried to persuade Mo Li: "Look, they can help you wash your clothes and do things for you. chores, even if you teach them, they can also make some handmade products and sell them to get money. You take part of it, although it is not much, but after a long time, the money you earn will definitely be better than if you sell them directly Much more."

"Just by selling some handicrafts, they can earn five silver coins in what year and month." At some point, Jedra came to the two of them, and he snorted.He scoffed at Chen Xiansong's suggestion: "Young man, although you know how to read and write, you also know how to calculate accounts. These are things you may have learned as a flower boy when you were young, but these are related to business transactions. Don’t teach my son. Our family has been in business for nearly 200 years, and we are not lacking in experience in this area. You just need to teach my son how to write and how to do business with people, and I will teach him.”

As a family of merchants, Jedra has extremely serious self-esteem in this regard.No matter how you say it, a businessman is a class above a citizen, and he doesn't know how much better than a flower boy. He feels that there is no need to listen to a flower boy's advice about doing business.

"There are many different ways of doing business." Chen Xiansong deliberated for a while, and tried to put his words in a more tactful way: "I really don't know much, but I know one thing, people who really make a lot of money. You seldom do it yourself, and there will definitely be many helpers working for you, both male and female."

Jedla looked back at Chen Xiansong, and snorted: "Oh, it seems that you know a lot about how to do business?"

"Just to see more." Chen Xiansong replied.

The flower boy was educated by elites since he was a child. From Jedlar's point of view, maybe Chen Xiansong has seen many noble ways of doing things.It's just that he's not interested.Things nobles can do.They may not be able to do it casually. He said casually: "In the future, apart from writing, you don't have to teach my son too many other things, some knowledge. Now knowing it will be a disaster." After he finished speaking, he walked to another place. side.

Chen Xiansong let out a long sigh, and sat back on the flatbed. Since the other party was unwilling to listen to his suggestion, it would be annoying if he continued.The carriage swayed, Chen Xiansong propped his chin, he missed Xiao Min more and more, and wanted to go home, but now he couldn't go at all, or he couldn't go.

Different from being threatened and kidnapped by Suoxi, although Jedra treated Chen Xiansong as a flower boy and sold him as a slave, he saved him after all. If Jedra hadn't asked Molly to fill him with herbs, even if he barely survived If he had a fever, he might be killed by those two old guys.

After all, people need to know how to repay kindness. Chen Xiansong wanted to give Jedla thousands of gold coins as a reward, but the other party didn't believe that he was a soul thinker. If he didn't return to Huishi Village, he would have no money. And he can't just walk away like he did against Suoxi, so he is very distressed now.

Time soon arrived in the evening, and the caravan was stationed by a river. Chen Xiansong began to teach Mo Li the basic strokes of Chinese characters. Because he had the experience of teaching Alex, it was very easy to teach Mo Li.The mercenaries started to bury stoves and set up fires, and set up tents for the night. At the same time, they had already begun to decide who would watch the night. This is the wilderness, and no matter there are many dangerous carnivorous wild animals, the most terrifying creatures in the wild are actually humans. .

There were also a few mercenaries who released the women in the cage and drove them to a place where the river was a little bit lower to let them solve their physical problems.The female slaves did not dare to defecate in the cage, because they would be beaten severely if they soiled the carriage. They could not hold back for a long time, and when they arrived at their destination, they undid their clothes and took off their pants without any scruples.

A few mercenaries walked aside holding their noses. Although they were full of blood and needs, no one was interested in these women, they were too thin and dirty.About two hours after teaching Molly, the sky had completely darkened, and several bonfires were burning in the camp. Chen Xiansong got two pieces of black bread, two pieces of white bread, and a small piece of wax meat.

This is an excellent treatment, he ate two white breads, then slowly chewed the thin piece of meat, feeling the taste of meat on the tip of his tongue, then walked to the cage of the carriage, and put the two black breads Monthly points are given to the women who are back in the cage.These women have become insensitive, and they don't seem to have much reaction to anything. Only a girl with a disheveled face, long yellow and messy hair, and a girl who is so thin that she doesn't even have a chest moved her eyes slightly when she took the black bread. An almost inaudible voice spoke a word.

Thank you!

It seemed to be the voice from the soul, Chen Xiansong paused for a while, and let out a long sigh.At this time, an unpleasant sharp voice came from behind: "Yo, I didn't expect our flower boy to be a kind person. I would rather starve myself than see my sisters suffer. Tsk tsk, it really is sisterly love." ah. "

In the eyes of many people, there is not much difference between a flower boy and a woman.Chen Xiansong turned around.It was found that the person who spoke was a rather wretched-looking mercenary with small eyes, staring at Chen Xiansong, filled with obscene rays of light.

Chen Xiansong chewed the piece of meat in his mouth more slowly, and then looked at the other party quietly, without a trace of expression.At first, when the mercenary saw the other party looking back at him, he thought it was very embarrassing.He still laughed, but after a while, he couldn't bear Chen Xiansong's almost expressionless gaze, he felt like a sharp sword was coming straight at him, he couldn't help getting angry, grabbed the weapon and stood up suddenly and shouted Said: "Little Huanan. What are you looking at, and then I will stab you to death with a sword."

Jedra was not far away, and when he heard this, he looked at the mercenary with some displeasure.Mo Li looked at Chen Xiansong with interest. [

"The flower boy is worth hundreds of gold coins. If you dare to stab him to death, you will never be able to pay it back for the rest of your life. Be careful that your employer will turn you into a slave and sell you to pay off the debt." A mercenary next to him laughed.Relieved for his companion.

"I'm just scaring him." The small-eyed mercenary hummed twice, and sat back in front of the campfire.

Chen Xiansong snorted in his heart, he had seen too many mercenaries, many with outstanding personal strength, he had killed many people in Emperor Meteor City, now when he got angry, he was quite murderous, like This mercenary.He couldn't stand being stared at by him for a long time, and his strength must not be much higher. As long as he wears Odin's sacred clothes, if the two are singled out, it is not certain who will win and who will lose.

In this caravan, one person is literate.Since he doesn't even know the characters, his literacy and knowledge are not much higher at all.Chen Xiansong didn't have much in common with them, so he returned to the cage of the carriage, tore off the black cloth, and covered the cage.In order to prevent mosquitoes from flying in, I lay my pillow on the somewhat fishy fur and gradually fell asleep.

At dawn the next day, Chen Xiansong got up, ate the white bread by himself as usual, and then distributed the black bread to the female slaves.Not long after, the caravan continued to set off, and arrived at the border city, Juanyun City, near noon.After Jedra paid the poll tax of more than 30 copper coins, the caravan entered the city.

After passing this city, there is the Kingdom of Uva.According to the scheduled plan, it will take them more than ten days to cross the entire hinterland of King Wuva to reach the border of the Kingdom of Cathay, and then it will take several days to reach the largest commercial city on the border of the Kingdom of Cathay. Shangqiu.

Jedra went to the merchant guild to buy a border pass, while the caravan parked behind a mid-sized hotel.

Chen Xiansong leaned against a big tree and was shading it.It is already early summer, and it is noon, the sun is shining directly, and everyone feels very hot.He took a few sips of water and saw the female slaves sweating profusely in the cage, and was about to send the water bag over, but Molly came over, and he asked, "Can you tell me, have you ever killed someone?"

"Why do you think so?" Chen Xiansong asked curiously.

"The mercenaries have been discussing your affairs last night." Molly sighed: "They said that when you looked at Murat, you had a very murderous look. You must have killed people before, and you have killed a lot. It's just me I don't believe it, you are weak, and you can tell at a glance that you have never done heavy or dirty work, how can a person like you kill someone."

Chen Xiansong smiled bitterly: "So, I did kill more than 200 people."

"Bragging." Mo Li originally believed that Chen Xiansong had killed people, but when he heard that he claimed to have killed more than 200 people, he didn't quite believe it, and walked aside to rest by himself.

Not long after, Jedra came back with an ugly face, because he had just received a piece of information from the Merchant Union: Due to the large-scale civil war in the Cathay Kingdom, military supplies such as food and weapons were very valuable, but the price of flower men continued to increase. Going down, it is said that it has fallen to less than a hundred gold coins, and the price is still falling, almost to the point where people are interested.

"I don't know if this guy can be sold." Jedra looked at Chen Xiansong, and was considering whether to let him go, but a middle-aged man in a noble long uniform walked over beside him.
