The slave market is one of the most popular markets on the continent of Augus. Every country and every city has such a place. Here you can basically buy people of any race, except for some races that are hidden in the unknown place.
In addition, due to the war, many slaves were sent to the market for sale every day. Of course, some of them could not afford to eat and became slaves voluntarily.
Combeda is the imperial capital of the Rockwell Empire, so the slave market here is naturally huge.
Standing outside the slave market, before even walking in, a foul smell spread far away. Zhang Yunfeng couldn't help but use his luck, closed his sense of smell, and used pore breathing instead, so that the unpleasant smell could be eliminated
Blocked.
Shaking his head, which was coaxed by the stinky smell, Zhang Yunfeng curled his lips and asked the three women next to him: "Why is the slave market environment in the imperial capital so bad! The smell can almost bring people to death.
It stinks to death, how are the slaves inside going to live?"
Early the next morning, Zhang Yunfeng arrived at the Celta family and told Milia the news of the move and the location of the new home. By the way, he also chatted with his father-in-law, Marquis Slater, about the ironworks and high-quality metals.
Then I wanted to take Milia to visit the new mansion, but I didn't want to meet Anna who was looking for Milia to find Zhang Yunfeng in the hotel just after leaving the door of the Celta family.
As soon as the three of them met, Anna gave up the idea of going to the hotel, and the three of them went to the new residence near the Royal Magic Academy.
After arriving at the new residence, Anna and Milia immediately left Zhang Yunfeng behind and began to stroll around the residence. It must be said that the residence transformed by Zhang Yunfeng has added many modern technological products, especially in the backyard, and
Master bedroom, temperature and humidity adjustment device, light-sensitive cloth control device, sewage discharge device, washroom device...
These things that are common in the twenty-second century have become strange things in front of Anna and Milia, the two original residents of the Augus continent. Whether it is the active Anna or the steady and intellectual Mi
Lia was full of curiosity, touching here and looking there, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, which made Zhang Yunfeng laugh out loud.
What's even more funny is that Anna, this little girl, actually looked around at the toilet in the bathroom, and asked Zhang Yunfeng what the white disc was, which almost made him laugh until his stomach cramped.
When Anna knew the function of the white disc, she gave Zhang Yunfeng a punch, but the force was not enough to hit him on the back.
The three of them had fun in their new home for a while, and Milia suggested to Zhang Yunfeng that he buy some slaves and come back to take care of the daily cleaning work.
After listening to Milia's suggestion, Zhang Yunfeng naturally accepted it with an open mind. After all, such a large mansion cannot be cleaned without dozens of people, and he is not worried about ordinary civilians. Buying some slaves is naturally the best choice.
, if he can be a little more evil, he can even refuse to pay his salary.
Since Zhang Yunfeng and Milia both agreed, Anna, a rough girl, would naturally not object, and the three of them immediately prepared to go out.
At this time, she happened to run into Aiqier who came to visit again. She saw the behavior of the three people and asked where they were going. When she learned the purpose of the three people, Aiqier immediately said that she
I have to go with him too.
So a group of four people joined together and came to the slave market in the commercial district of Combeda.
But as soon as he reached the slave market and before he walked in, Zhang Yunfeng was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The slave market in front of us is surrounded by a large gray and white building. Just looking at the dust on the outer wall, you can tell that it is very old.
Of course, this is not bad. I can see beyond the outer buildings and see the inside of the slave market.
This sight immediately shocked Zhang Yunfeng, who came from the civilized era of the 22nd century!
The inside of the slave market looks like a market, but it is basically a prison camp!
Inside the slave market, there is a large open-air tent camp. The slaves are gathered near the tents in twos and threes. Most of them have their heads lowered, their eyes are dull, their faces are hungry and thin, slovenly and dirty, and they have a lifeless and gray aura about them.
, they look just like the prisoners in Nazi prison camps in Germany during World War II.
Faced with Zhang Yunfeng's questions, Anna and Milia both looked puzzled. They were both aristocratic ladies and had been exposed to such things. If it hadn't been for a sudden impulse today, they wanted to follow Zhang Yunfeng to the slave market to see what slaves were like.
This is what the market used to be like.
On the other hand, Aiqier, who helped Hannibal and managed Jasmine Auction House for a period of time, said, "This is what the slave market is like. Those slave traders collect slaves from other places into the market and sell them together.
What they value is only profit. As for the life and death of slaves, they don't care about it at all. Of course, if they are some high-quality slaves, those slave traders will take special care of them. After all, they can buy them at a good price and give them to slave traders.
Bringing higher profits.”
After listening to Ai Qier's words, Zhang Yunfeng's expression changed slightly and he sighed deeply.
As someone who came from a civilized era and received higher education, he really wanted to destroy this backward slavery system so that those slaves could gain freedom. But reality is reality after all, and he was just a first-time traveler on the ramp, but
The slavery system has existed in the continent of Augus for countless years. Even if he wanted to change all this, he was unable to do so. At least at this stage, it was impossible for him to change all this, and he did not have the ability to change it.
After pondering for a while, Zhang Yunfeng said, "Forget it, don't talk about this, let's go in!" After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the buildings outside the slave market. Even though it was his first time to come to the slave market.
, but he also knows that the quality of the slaves placed in the room is different from that in the tent. You can tell who is high and who is low just by looking at the treatment.
The three women nodded and followed Zhang Yunfeng into the building on the right.
Entering the buildings of the slave market, a faint aroma suddenly wafted out from inside, completely covering up the stinky smell outside. Zhang Yunfeng also took advantage of the situation to release the blockade of his sense of smell and started walking around inside.
However, Zhang Yunfeng didn't know which slave company had better quality, so he just took the three girls around.
However, Ai Qier was led around by Zhang Yunfeng and guessed that he didn't know the place, so she volunteered and took the group to the largest slave shop in the slave market.
As soon as the group of people entered the door, a middle-aged man in his forties came up to greet them, bowed his hands towards them, and asked respectfully: "This distinguished Mr. Magician, and three beautiful ladies, welcome you.
Come to our store, what can I do for you?"
Although Zhang Yunfeng was very dissatisfied with the slavery system, he still found this middle-aged man's courtesy very useful. He nodded and said with a smile, "I want to buy some slaves. I wonder how good the quality of the slaves you have here is?"
When he heard that he was here to buy slaves, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he scanned the four people in front of him without leaving any trace. Finally, his eyes stopped on the rank badge pinned on the left chest of Master Zhang Yunfeng's robe, and he thought to himself: 'This
Several people have extraordinary temperaments and are well-dressed. You can tell from a glance that they are from noble families, especially the magician. He is already a junior magician at a young age. It seems that big business is coming to visit.'
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man immediately smiled and greeted enthusiastically: "This distinguished Mr. Magician, please rest assured that the slaves we have here are the best in the entire slave market. I guarantee that there will be no others in the entire Combeda."
The slaves in the slave shop are better than ours, so feel free to choose. We have sufficient supply and a wide variety of goods. We have everything you need. Whether they are humans, dwarves, goblins, orcs, human beings or even elves, we have them here. Whatever slave you want, just ask.
that is!"
This middle-aged man spoke very fluently, just like a jingle, which opened Zhang Yunfeng's eyes and said secretly, "This guy's advertising slogans are so high-spirited that they are comparable to those gold medal salesmen on the earth.
very good, very powerful."
"I want some cleaning and serving slaves. Do you have any here?" After thinking for a while, Zhang Yunfeng said.
"No problem, we have so many slaves like this here, how many do you want?" The middle-aged man slapped his thigh and said quickly. They have the most slaves doing housework here. And look at Zhang Yunfeng and his group.
Given his background, the quantity purchased must not be small. Thinking that it would be a big deal later, the middle-aged man immediately looked at Zhang Yunfeng and the others with flattering expressions, waiting for him to tell the quantity.
Facing the middle-aged man's flattering expression, Zhang Yunfeng was speechless for a while, but he thought about it and said, "You want to select a group of slaves, let us take a look before we talk."
"No problem! Please follow me." Hearing that Zhang Yunfeng wanted to see the slaves first, the middle-aged man was not surprised at all. He was used to such things. Many nobles came to them to buy slaves.
He first saw the goods before deciding to buy them, so he led a few people into the store with ease.
The middle-aged man led the four people into the store, passed two small checkpoints that seemed to be used for guarding, and the group came to an open lobby. On the opposite side of the lobby were small rooms. It was obvious that the purpose of this place was
The slaves were treated quite well, at least they had roofs over their heads.
After bringing the four people into the lobby, the middle-aged man asked them to sit aside, and then he went to arrange for his servants to mobilize the slaves.
