Qin Dynasty Novelist

As for the aborigines in Qin who were given land, plowed and worked, developed the economy, and made the country prosperous and strong, the slaves of the six countries in Shandong still followed the system of the Zhou Dynasty. Except for the nobles, officials, etc., the rest of the people were slaves. Even if they have their own fields, they are not really owned, but belong to the nobles' private property.

"Little uncle, there are three types of slaves in the slave garden. One is the area where common people become slaves because of their crimes. Their prices are very cheap. Many nobles like to buy in large quantities and cultivate their own fields."

"Secondly, it is the slave area of ​​the nobles in the public office. That area is basically female slaves. Because of their birth and blood, their prices are much higher, and many nobles also choose some. Last year, the heaven and earth were established not long ago. Many were also transferred from this area to serve as maids."

"The third is the slaves of the peoples other than Zhuxia. The north of Zhao State is bordered by the Xiongnu and other ethnic groups. In recent years, Li Mu has repeatedly defeated the Xiongnu. Many Huns were sent here, and Yunzhong There are also people from the small countries on the west side."

"The two of the Wen family that Senior Brother Zongquan said are in the second area, go this way!"

Looking around, the Tabu Nuyuan area seems to be no different from the merchant gathering area in the west city of Handan. There are towering pavilions, wine shops mixed in, and even a little bit of happy place.

It is slightly different from the slave trading in my mind. I thought buying and selling those slaves was like picking commodities at a market. Now it seems that everything here is quite formal.

There are quite a few people walking in it, most of them are dressed in brocade clothes, entwined with aura of wealth, only the prison cars from time to time moving through the alleyway, the true face of the slaves can be revealed.

Not much to say, the spread of the spiritual sense enveloped the Nuyuan, which occupies a huge area, with a radius of tens of miles, and the inside is like what I saw before, with tens of thousands of people in the prison car.

All of them were locked in a strange walled courtyard, and patrolling guards interspersed to prevent strange things from moving. They followed the Taoist behind them, passing through slave workshops, and came to a peaceful place. Other slave workshops are generally the same area.

Behind these slave workshops are those strange courtyards, and in front of them are high-rise buildings like ordinary merchants. The first floor is a place for chatting in wine shops, the second floor is a private room for trading, and the third floor is a private room for noble people. .

"No. [-] slave workshop, Zongquan should be talking about this place!"

Zhou Qing remembered the information collected by Yu Zongquan in detail. He walked for half an hour on the wide and flat bluestone road, looked around everything, and came to No. [-] slave workshop.

The entire slave garden is under the jurisdiction of Zhao Guo Shaofu. There are nearly [-] slave workshops in it, and each slave workshop has a unique contractor. The Shaofu doesn't care about the slave trade, they only care about the commission.

The slaves obtained from various channels inside and outside Handan gathered in the slave garden, and then with the slave garden as the center, a huge slave market was formed, except for some special people, they could be bought and sold freely.

The family Yun Shu belonged to was the Wen family, a small doctor's family, so naturally it was not within the special scope. Zhou Qing glanced at the Taoist behind him, and the two entered the slave workshop one after another.

"Hahaha, two distinguished guests, please come inside!"

Entering from the main entrance of the slave house, as if inspired by a spiritual sense, the entire first floor is located like a wine shop outside the slave house. On the side, there are already several people drinking and talking.

Looking at Zhou Qing and the Taoist behind him, the servant on the first floor of the slave workshop hurried forward, with a flattering smile on his face, and a slight bow, leading Zhou Qing and the two towards an empty desk in the hall.

"There is no need for these customary etiquettes. I am here to take a look at the goods. If our lord is satisfied, the transaction can be made immediately. Let you come here in charge."

Zhou Qing didn't say anything, and he didn't go in the direction led by the servant. Under the sound transmission of the sounds of nature, all kinds of things were circling deep in the heart of the Taoist.The Taoist nodded to Zhou Qing, then took a step forward and looked at the servant.

In the slave workshop, this servant is only a slightly higher-ranked slave, and there is no one who can decide to buy or sell.

"Okay, the two nobles are coming with me. The steward is accompanying another nobleman to choose the goods. The two nobles will enter first, or you can choose one or two in advance. When the steward is free, we can talk to each other."

The servant who was only about fifteen years old was also an elf, dressed in coarse linen clothes, heard the words of the Taoist, and looked at the clothes of the two of them, they were obviously not ordinary people, and the temperament of the two of them was also similar to those of the new nobles different.

At that moment, I felt a little joy in my heart, without any hesitation, the smile on my face was even stronger, and the direction of progress was slightly changed, leading Zhou Qing and the two towards the rear area of ​​this slave workshop.

There is the core of the slave workshop, and it is also where the slaves stay.

From the front hall to the backyard, through a relatively lengthy passage corridor, there are strong men guarding with weapons on the left and right. Their presence can not only ensure that the slaves are honest, but also ensure the normal operation of the slave trade.

"You two gentlemen, this way!"

"This is where the goods are. We have all kinds of goods here, good-looking ones, smart-working ones, still charming ones, noble-born ones...all of them."

Stepping into the backyard of the slave workshop, you can see an extremely empty place where hundreds of thousands of people exist in an orderly manner. There are many small divisions.

In the far corner, there is a thatched house. According to the spiritual sense, it should be a place to sleep and rest. It is daytime at this moment, and these ragged slaves are working one after another.

In each area with a radius of seven or eight feet, there are twenty or thirty women of different ages working around a handloom cart, weaving silkworm balls into cloth. The weaving cart is simple and rough. Inefficient, but nonetheless, those indifferent women are still working non-stop.

"Boss in charge, these two gentlemen want to buy a batch of goods, so I'll bring them here to have a look!"

As the slave walked around within the huge wall, the female slaves surrounded by iron fences seemed to be accustomed to the outsiders entering here, and paid no attention to them, only caring about the movements of their hands.

After more than a dozen breaths, under the guidance of the servant, he walked up to a middle-aged man in a light green brocade robe. The man was fat, and his expression was always smiling, and he even touched himself with his hands from time to time. belly.

"Haha, two noblemen, our No. [-] Slave Workshop has a reputation in the Slave Garden for decades. No matter what kind of needs you have, we can meet them."

"Even if we are women from other countries, we all survived. Looking at the bearing of the two nobles, these vulgar things are hard to catch. I happened to buy a high-quality horse in my hand, and several pavilion masters in Zhaomei Pond even bought it. Deposit."

The chubby person in charge was familiar with the matter, when he saw the waiter bring Zhou Qing and the two of them to him, he spoke slowly to a guest beside him who was talking, bowed his hands and turned around.

A pair of small but extremely bright eyes glanced at Zhou Qing and the two of them, and suddenly there was concern in their hearts. After working in this industry for decades, some people's details can be seen through at a glance.

The two people in front of them are obviously different. Although they don't know their identities, they are definitely not ordinary people. Since they are not ordinary people, these ordinary things are naturally difficult to catch the eye.

With a slight movement in the heart, it is the person who goes forward to sell, sweeping around many areas with one hand, casually, those who are working weaving, in their eyes, are just cheap goods for trading.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"We are people from the heaven and earth in Zhaomei Lake. It is because we know that you have good goods here that we came here. Otherwise, with so many slave workshops in the entire slave garden, we would not choose this place alone."

"It's natural that such vulgar things are difficult to enter the heaven and the earth. If the best goods in your hands are acceptable, we can accept them all."

Zhou Qing still didn't say anything, and left everything to the Taoists around him. This time he came to the slave garden to buy a new batch of slaves to replace the people in heaven and earth who have been infiltrated by external forces.

Under the shroud of my own spiritual perception, I am very clear about whether there is a problem with those people in the heaven and the earth. Although the newly purchased batch will still be infiltrated, but with the black crow and the white phoenix, it is not so simple up.

"You guys talk first, I'll just take a look to see if there are any good goods hidden in it!"

Whisper softly to the Taoist, step forward, and then leave. Walk casually in the wide slave labor area in front of you, with casual eyes, relaxed and natural, and you can't see anything unusual.

"Hahaha, sure enough, Zhaomei Pond is an old customer of Nuyuan. I also know about it in heaven and earth. Recently, Xue Ji from your place has a good reputation, and her dancing is extraordinary, which is very exciting."

"It is rumored that Xueji is still Feng Fei's disciple in Lingfeng Pavilion, so she belongs to you in the heaven and earth. It would cost a lot of money to come to the heaven and earth. Since she is an old customer of Zhaomeichi, then come with me."
