In the endless stream of ditches, several palm-sized croakers chased each other.
The emerald green moss was faintly glowing with golden light, and the sound of women washing clothes and bursts of children's laughter could be heard.
On the endless farmland as far as the eye could see, the hard-working old cow happened to stop to rest. It was a sign that he had met a good owner.
On the field ridge nearby, several farmers were sitting on the ground, looking curiously at the businessman in front of them.
"How about, as long as three thousand coins, or two sheep, this boy will be yours."
The young man dressed as a businessman looked quite decent, but he was watching the business of human traffickers and selling the young man next to him like a commodity.
Several farmers looked at each other, seemingly thinking about something.
The merchant thought they were attracted, but he just felt that the price of three thousand Wen was too high, so he hurriedly added: "Don't underestimate him. Even though he is thin and small now, he is a good hand at work."
After saying that, in order to increase his credibility, the businessman yelled at the young man on the side: "Go and plow the remaining fields."
The young man nodded obediently, rolled up his torn trousers, and went to work in the fields.
When the farmers saw it, they hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, "No, no, we have to let the cattle rest."
"Yeah, we've been plowing the ground all morning, so don't mess around."
The young man was stunned for a moment and looked at the astonished businessman.
How dare the businessman offend these financial owners at this time, he turned around and kicked the boy, cursing: "You have no eyesight."
It was obviously you who asked me to go... the young man thought.
Looking back at the old cow, I felt sorrow for no reason. Perhaps in the eyes of the businessman, he was not as valuable as the old cow.
"Lao Yang, what are you doing?"
The movement here attracted the attention of several dealers in the distance, and many people came here one after another.
The businessman did not feel embarrassed, but became excited, as if the more people came, the better his business would be.
The leader of the farmer bowed respectfully to the farmer and responded: "My boss, this guy is so arrogant, he asked us if we can buy slaves."
Hearing the words "Ren Yazi", the banker frowned slightly, raised his eyes and looked at the young man dressed as a businessman, remained silent, and then looked at the young man with his head lowered.
When the businessman heard the farmer calling him 'Master', he immediately put on a flattering expression and said, "Young man, my eyes are clumsy. I don't want a noble person to come here in person. I've seen the boss, little Zhao Liu'er."
The banker frowned slightly. After sizing up the young man, he turned back and whispered to the bankers behind him.
One of the farmers nodded, then looked at Zhao Liuer and said in a deep voice: "Hedong County does not allow slave trading. Are you alone or in a gang?"
Zhao Liuer was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
But the farmer said: "It must be a gang. He just said that if he is not satisfied with this young man, he has many little girls in his hands."
Zhao Liuer was immediately alert, secretly thinking that something was wrong.
But several bankers didn't give him a chance to react and directly stepped forward to surround him.
The leader of the banker grabbed the young man and asked harmoniously: "Little guy, where are you from?"
The young man was frightened by this sudden scene. He looked at Zhao Liu'er and met Zhao Liu'er's threatening gaze.
"You still dare to be cruel?"
‘Peng’!
One of the dealers raised his fist and punched Zhao Liuer in the stomach. The pain was so painful that he lay on the ground and begged for mercy.
When the young man saw this scene, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He knelt down and begged for help, saying: "Please save my mother and my sister. Please save my mother and my sister."
"Don't worry, just explain it carefully."
The bankers frowned and directly tied Zhao Liuer's hands to prevent him from threatening the young man.
···
East of the city.
Soup pool.
Zhang Hui sat on the futon and looked at the middle-aged man opposite with a solemn look on his face.
The middle-aged man has a pair of triangular eyes and a huge mole next to his thin lips, which makes his facial features even more sinister.
"How about it, Shopkeeper Zhang, these women are all first-class goods. With them soliciting business from you, I guarantee that your monthly income will triple." The middle-aged man kept looking at Zhang when he spoke.
Hui's chest swayed.
Zhang Hui has a special constitution, and this is her second pregnancy. Her milk secretion started prematurely, and she could smell a faint sweet milk fragrance in the air, which was really inconvenient for her.
The middle-aged man's gaze made her feel even more displeased, but she did not scold him or directly drive him away.
"Mr. Zhao, as the saying goes, words are empty words. You just rely on a few portraits to say how beautiful they are. I don't know what other people think, but I don't believe it." Zhang Hui picked up a cattail leaf fan and put it against her chest to cover her face.
Disgusting sight.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but squint his eyes, which made his already small triangular eyes look even more penetrating.
But he just hesitated for a moment and then said: "That's right, what do you mean by shopkeeper Zhang?"
"Bring the person here." Zhang Hui said bluntly, "I have to choose in front of you. Of course the price is not an issue."
The middle-aged man seemed slightly hesitant.
Zhang Hui saw this and said with a smile: "Why, are you afraid that I can't get the money?"
The middle-aged man was stunned.
Zhang Hui directly took out a wooden box from under the table, opened the lid, and revealed various food stamps, meat stamps, and even priceless commodity stamps inside.
The middle-aged man came to Hedong not long ago, but he also knew the value of these bills. When he saw so many bills, he swallowed greedily.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Zhang is so grand, Zhao doesn't hesitate anymore. You can choose from all the women here. However, we need to change to a place. After all, there are many people here, Shopkeeper Zhang understands what I mean, right?"
Zhang Hui nodded slightly, pretending to be indifferent, and put the wooden box back.
The middle-aged man's eyes followed the wooden box. This scene made Zhang Hui feel funny in his heart. At the same time, he also secretly became a little wary.
"It's really inconvenient for me to live here. Please tell me where to trade."
"Zhao now lives in a tile house in the south of the city. Half of these women are there, and the rest are everywhere in the city. Let's do this. In two hours, Zhao will greet you at the tile house. Then we will hand over money in one hand and the other in the other hand.
Delivery, how?”
"Can."
The middle-aged man did not doubt his presence and stood up to leave.
Zhang Hui sent him to the door.
"Shopkeeper, that person doesn't look like a good person." Shi Xiaomei said with a frown as she lay on the counter.
Zhang Hui turned around and smiled at her, nodded and said, "He is indeed not a good person."
Shi Xiaomei frowned slightly.
Just listen to Zhang Hui say: "You are so busy looking at the store, I want to go out."
Shi Xiaomei nodded and reminded worriedly: "Shopkeeper, be careful, there is still a child in your belly."
Zhang Hui glanced at her angrily, and said angrily and funny: "Where are you thinking? I'm going to the guard station to report and receive the reward."
"Report to receive reward?"
Shi Xiaomei frowned and looked up at the middle-aged man who disappeared into the crowd.
Although I don't know what that middle-aged man does, one thing is certain... his end will not be too good.
