Dressed as a subjugated princess, I will take my husband into exile with me

When the ship docked, the captain first led the sailors to unload the carriages, ox carts, etc. in the cabin, and then lowered the cockpit and allowed people on the ship to disembark one after another.

"Master Zhao, Yungang is the place where the economy and trade are most concentrated."

"People from the surrounding area who want to make money will come here to find a way."

"This place is a mixed bag, with people from all walks of life." Zhu Li introduced to Zhao Lingshan in a low voice.

They were at the end of the line, waiting for the others to come ashore first, so they had time to talk some more.

Although he knew that after being exiled to Yunzhou, according to regulations, no one could leave the place of exile.

But he believed that Zhao Lingshan was the kind of person who was absolutely unwilling to be restricted and would definitely think of developing here.

So I can remind her more, and when she starts to get in touch with her, it will be easier for her to adapt.

"Dr. Zhao, we will take you here. Please take care of yourself for the rest of the way." The captain finally said goodbye to her.

The doctor cured the young lady's illness and was arranged by the city lord to take the best boat, which shows that her status is extraordinary.

From the beginning to the end, the captain's attitude towards her was very respectful.

"Thank you for your hard work, Captain. Please make a trip and see you later." Zhao Lingshan was polite and followed her husband off the boat.

When it comes to the busiest place in a place, the pier is always the most popular one.

However, this is also the most chaotic place, and even the government rarely cares about what happens on the dock.

"Nobles, please buy a child and go home. You can do laundry, cook, or work as a cow or a horse."

"Let's see what the child looks like first. The price is negotiable!" Several young men on the roadside shouted to people passing by.

In their eyes, buying and selling children seems to be a normal thing, no different from selling carrots and cabbage.

The children who were trafficked were all between six and ten years old.

Although he was wearing shabby clothes, they were all clean.

And regardless of whether they are men or women, all of them have beautiful features and good facial features.

"Most of these children are not bought home to be slaves. Because they are more beautiful, they are usually treated as adopted sons or child brides."

"Even if you buy it back and become a servant, it will be bought by some dignitaries."

"Many powerful families, in addition to their own houses and cars, often have better-looking children than their maids and servants." Zhu Li acted as an explanation for Zhao Lingshan as he walked.

Because he carefully observed that although the Zhao family leader was wearing a hat, her attention stayed for a long time on selling the children.

In fact, he didn't know that Zhao Lingshan was just curious. Children are the most despised existence in the apocalypse.

But in this world, it can actually be sold for money!

After his explanation just now, she finally understood a little bit.

"Hey, miss, don't leave in a hurry. How about we pick a few children?" One of the men noticed with sharp eyes Zhao Lingshan's attention to their stall.

This is the keenness of the businessman. Even if the other person's face is completely covered, he can still detect it.

"It's not open today. If Miss needs it, all the children she chooses will be paid ten taels of silver each!" Seeing that she didn't refuse, the man hurriedly quoted the price.

Zhao Lingshan just shook her head slightly, and Zhu Li understood what she meant, "Don't block our lady's way. Her maids and servants are all enough, so we don't need her for the time being!"

His loud voice, tall body, and the official uniforms he wore made those people dare not forcefully sell him.

It's no wonder that they seized the opportunity and refused to let it go. Indeed, Zhao Lingshan and her group seemed to be unable to connect them with the prisoner.

Since the child seller was loudly persuaded by Zhu Li to leave, the other vendors on the pier also had the good sense not to disturb their group.

Although many places here are unregulated, you still have to behave yourself when dealing with officials.

After leaving the dock for a while, Zhu Licai quietly discussed with Zhao Lingshan, "Master Zhao, let's not rush today. Let's go to Yungang's inn to rest for one night, and then set off again tomorrow morning. How about that?"

Zhao Lingshan had no objection to his arrangement, "Commander Zhu will take care of it."

Although it is only noon now, there is still a lot of time before evening.

But people who have been on the boat for two days now feel like they are swaying and light when walking on land.

It's like stepping on cotton, one foot is deep and the other is shallow, but there is no accurate focus.

This state is indeed not suitable for continuous travel.

Anyway, I have gained a lot of time, so it is good to leave half a day for everyone to take a rest.

"There's one more thing I want to remind everyone." Zhu Li asked the team to stop temporarily in a relatively remote place.

"The further you go towards Yunzhou, the sparser the population will become, and it will be very difficult to buy anything."

"And Yunzhou will enter cold weather starting next month."

"So, if you need to prepare some living supplies, try to prepare as much as possible when you get to the city." He told everyone what he learned.

As for how they should prepare, or to what extent they can prepare, that was beyond his ability.

After saying this, he sent the team on their way immediately, planning to get out of the city earlier and have more time to buy them things.

After hearing what he said, the people in the team began to discuss quietly with their families as they walked, how much money they had left, how to purchase supplies, etc.

As more and more people discussed, the lamentations from the team became more and more intense.

If this happened before they encountered the bandits' plan, then buying these daily necessities would be a piece of cake.

However, each of their families now has only a dozen or twenty taels of silver.

After buying clothes, I didn’t care about food.

If you take care of the Five Zang Temple, you won’t know what to use to resist the severe cold...

I really want to take care of either end, but I can't take care of either end.

"How about we borrow some money from the head of the Zhao family first to get through the current difficulties, and then we can work hard to earn money and pay it back to her later?" someone in the team suggested in a low voice.

"I'm afraid this is not good. Apart from anything else, the money we have on hand was earned by the Zhao family master!" Someone objected.

"It's not like we borrowed money but didn't pay it back. Isn't there no better way at the moment?" Those who supported borrowing money also began to refute.

"That's right. After we arrive at Yunzhou, we don't have to sit back and have nothing. We still have to continue to make money. It's okay to pay back the money when the time comes, right?" As long as one person starts, more people will agree. .

After all, they really can't afford more money now to buy everything they need for themselves and their families.

Although it was really embarrassing to ask for a loan, and the head of the Zhao family didn't owe them anything.

But for now, there is no better solution than borrowing money.
