Chapter 7 Buying(2/2)

Entering here, Liu Xia's eyes were opened.

The market is also crowded with people and there are many shops.

Those who had money went to the agency here, while those who had no money held a sign. The scene really shocked Liu Xia.

The two of them managed to get to the intermediary of Xiangrui Trading Company here. After entering, the shopkeeper hurriedly showed Liu Xia and Bai Xingrong tea, and then took out a brochure for Liu Xia to choose from.

Although they are said to be slaves, they are also human beings and cannot be killed or abused. In the Tianji Dynasty, this is a serious crime and is also disgraceful.

Liu Xia took a cursory look and found that a slave's annual salary was about fifty taels of silver. Prices in Longdu were quite high. In other places, more than thirty taels of silver a year was enough.

In Dragon Soul Continent, one tael of silver can buy 110 kilograms of good rice. An ordinary family needs at least 780 taels of silver for expenses a year.

This salary is within a reasonable range.

"Your Majesty, the people who are registered here are all innocent people. Most of them have skills. You can buy them back and find an old butler to train them for a few days, and then you can start working."

The man who knew the story hurriedly smiled.

At some point, Liu Xia heard a burst of noise outside the door, including cries and screams, which sounded very miserable.

"Shopkeeper, what happened?"

"Haha, the prince doesn't know something. It's because the government opened the treasury."

"What's the meaning?"

"They are all the family members of some criminals and can only be sold through the government. These people are pitiful. Ordinary people would not come to buy them because they think they are unlucky. Most of the people who come to buy them are buyers from some criminal institutions and the like.

Some girls have a strong temperament, so naturally they don't want to do it. Some time ago, Miss Song was bought by Huafang House and committed suicide in three days. Alas."

Having said this, the shopkeeper sighed softly.

During this period, Liu Xia became more familiar with the laws of the Tianji Dynasty.

Some crimes will indeed implicate family members, such as treason, which will implicate the nine clans.

If some officials are found to be corrupt, most of their servants will be demoted to untouchables and trafficked.

Untouchables have no human rights, just like animals. If the owner likes it, no one will care if he is killed.

"Go and have a look."

Liu Xia immediately stood up and walked towards there.

At this moment, the entrance to the official treasury was already crowded with people.

It's so lively.

On the doorstep, there was a young woman in her thirties, unkempt and pitiful.

"The price is thirty taels."

Immediately, a government official in official uniform standing on the steps shouted.

This young woman is probably old and frail, and no one has made an offer.

"Next!"

The official didn't want to waste time, so he shouted loudly.

Immediately, a little girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, was pulled out.

This little girl had bright eyes and white teeth, and she had a certain appearance. At that moment, there was a commotion in the audience.

"This is the second daughter of the Zhao Yuting family. The price is fifty taels."

"Fifty-five taels."

"Fifty-seven taels."

Liu Xia looked at the girl on the stage, as if she had been drugged, her eyes were dull and she was wearing heavy makeup.

However, it is obvious that this girl is very popular.

After a while, it was raised to eighty taels, and it is still rising.

Finally, at one hundred taels, no one bid again.

The bidder was a fat middle-aged woman with heavy makeup, who was obviously a brothel madam or something like that.

"One hundred taels for the last time."

No one in the audience shouted anymore, and the official was heard to say: "One hundred taels, deal." Let's buy the building. If you want to come and play, you should do it as soon as possible."

At that moment, there was a roar of cheers in the audience.

However, at this moment, the girl suddenly hit the stone pillar on the side, catching people off guard. With a bang, her head was broken and blood flowed, and she fell to the ground.

However, this girl has no cultivation and her body is weak. With such a collision, she only broke her head.

The old bustard waved his hand, and three nurses came over, picked up the girl and left.

"Let me go, let me die. Let me die."

The girl struggled desperately, but to no avail.

"Little Hoof, come with me. If you make trouble again, I will beat you to death."

However, the girl still kept crying, and the old madam said angrily: "Someone, give me a beating."

Three big men held the girl down and started to fight. Liu Xia stood outside the crowd and really couldn't stand it.

"Fuck, stop!"
