Chapter 894: I want to take advantage too
In the slave market of Bosaro, business is still so popular. In fact, the reason is very simple. If merchants want valuable goods produced in Huaxia Island, they have to exchange them for slaves without so much cash. From an economics point of view, Huaxia Island is holding a wooden knife, slowly and firmly holding the blood of the Arab Empire.
If the feudal nobles, including the Caliph Mustasin of Baghdad, wanted those expensive commodities, they could only increase the exploitation of civilians. In other words, exports would allow Huaxia Island to obtain the capital of the entire Arab Empire - funds used to expand reproduction. This would also completely transform the entire Arab Empire into an agricultural and pastoral country, due to the loss of capital and the opportunity to develop large-scale industries.
They don’t understand it now. When they understand it in the future, they don’t have enough capital to invest in scientific research and industrial construction, and it will be useless if they know it.
Of course, this knowledge is still a "divine metaphor" for the Arabs, and the "glory of Imam" will not be willing to hear news that some people are interested in those things.
However, this has nothing to do with Shi Shi on the run. The reason why she came to the slave market was that he needed several slaves to support himself. After all, in the Arab Empire, when a woman was alone, it was a very dangerous situation.
The slave market was bustling. Judging from the quality of slaves, in addition to the traditional black slaves and crusad prisoners of war, there were more fresh goods. Obviously, when the expensive goods on Huaxia Island made everyone like them, people here were willing to go elsewhere to sell them in exchange for more goods.
This is also the reason why Shi Shi decided to buy a few guards. She didn't want to be kidnapped in a confused manner and then sold it as a livestock.
When he came here, Shi Shi remembered something. That was when Zhao Fubo and Zhao Xu came here to buy slaves. The water snake waist that Zhao Xu bought back finally ran to Zhao Fubo. Shi Shi once discovered that she eavesdropped on the conversation between Zhao Wuji and Zhao Xu, but she didn't know what it was.
"I think the origin of the Water Snake's waist must be not simple, otherwise..."
Just when Shi Shi was thinking about being out of her way and almost forgot her purpose, someone next to her suddenly spoke to her.
"I don't think my wife has to buy any slaves anymore. Wouldn't it be better to order me to give you a few?"
The sudden sound scared Shi Shi. She looked at people alertly. But after a glance, she couldn't help but be shocked. The person who came had a round face and a flash of light in his small eyes was a common businessman's style, and his beard was like an eagle curled with hair. Although his appearance was not important, what was important was that Shi Shi found that he knew this person, and this person was the owner of Ziquzhuang - Hassan.
Among the four major farms, Ziyun Village's income is second only to Ruiyu Village. However, the owner of the farm Hassan is a low-key person and the wealth he should give to the Zhao family is a lot of. His temperament is not as stable as Shu Baian, nor is it like Zhao Wuji's treacherous, nor is it like Wei Zhen's rampant. In Shi Shi's eyes, this owner of the farm Hassan is just a secret person.
Shi Shi hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to talk to Hassan. Then she thought for a while, thinking that since he came to talk to him, he thought that he had seen through his own actions. Instead of hiding his head and tail, it would be better to see what he wanted to do.
"Oh, isn't this the owner of Hassan? Why are you so idle today? I know you have a lot of things every day and you are busy. I just came here to buy a few slaves, so I didn't intend to disturb Hassan's owner!"
Shi Shi's lies can't be hidden from Hassan's small eyes. His small, round eyes rumbling, and then he pointed out his painting.
"Yes, I, Hassan, a small owner, naturally have a hard life. Especially today, Master Zhao sent someone to find someone, so I naturally can't be idle at home, so I also came out to show my loyalty to Master. Who knew that this time I met you, Madam. If Madam is free, please go home with Me, so I won't be disturbed by those minions."
Shi Shi could hear that Hassan added a lot of water to his words. But she was sure that Hassan seemed to want to help her. She was a little confused about it. Why did Hassan help her?
Just as Shi Shi was thinking about whether to follow Hassan to his house, the entire slave market suddenly became chaotic. A group of cavalry began to check the faces of those lonely women. In the Arab Empire, this was absolutely not allowed. But facing a large number of black-armored cavalry, no one dared to say anything.
Seeing this scene, Shi Shi knew that it was coming to find her. She was not hesitating at the moment, but instead laughed softly.
"Well, since the owner of Hassan sincerely invites you, if you don't go, wouldn't it be too ungrateful? Well, I'll go with you!"
When she agreed, Hassan immediately came to her side. The guards of Hassan's manor also protected the two of them, blocking the cavalry who had investigated people outside the circle. This made Shi Shi understand that the incomprehensible Hassan's manor in front of him was here to save him. As for why he saved, Shi Shi really didn't think of a reason.
Because even if Hassan knew that he had taken Zhao Xu's gunpowder formula and weapon map, he would not be too interested. Because with his usual actions, he would not disobey Shu Yuer's order to move to Huaxia Island. Even Shi Shi was sure that the owner of Hassan would naturally become a big hit by then. After all, he is a person who is accustomed to doing business and a person who can make money, who doesn't love it!
Besides, it is very likely that he didn't know why Zhao Xu was looking for him and what he got. The fact that there were firearms in Yulin Village only appeared in the past few months. In theory, the short and fat Hassan owner in front of him should not know yet.
No matter what Shi Shi thought, she knew that she was rescued at the moment. At least she would not be captured by these cavalry and returned to Yulinzhuang, because if she went back, Zhao Xu's temperament would be afraid of death and life.
Hassan's mansion was the same as his seven-pointed and delicate heart. Although the whole house was not big, it was very delicate. Shi Shi carefully observed that there was no Zhao Xu's mansion in his mansion. When she knew that this was not a trap, she completely relieved.
After the servant brought incense tea, drinks and snacks, Hassan drove away the idle man and then looked at Shi Shi with a smile. His eyes made Shi Shi furious.
