Xiaoyao Nongjiazi

It was not the first time for Zhong Qingran to enter such a place. The atmosphere there was dull, people were displayed and bought and sold like commodities, and their vitality was completely lost. Numbness and despair spread, and it was not far from death. He would not step on it unless necessary. Enter the market.

Zhong Qingran is not a saint, he naturally likes to enjoy things, but he can't really treat people as human beings. Now, he can't help it. In the future, it depends on the development of Fucun. If everything goes well, he will Try to abolish the current practice of selling people as livestock.As for how long it will take to realize this ambition, he himself does not know.

Reform cannot be easily achieved by one's own strength. Throughout history, how many innovations can truly overthrow the previous rules?Very few.The current situation obviously doesn't allow it. If Hanhai Prefecture is not extremely closed and the population is small, it would be easier to introduce new ideas from old ones. He is afraid that he would never say it if he took this idea to heart.

It was a coincidence that Zhong Qingran was forced to enter Hanhai Prefecture. Perhaps, in a few years, many systems of different worlds could be born from him.

Zhong Qingran doesn't think that he can far surpass the ancients in terms of IQ, but he has insights that this world doesn't have, and Fu Yunzhu is a rare and good helper in this world. This world has brought great benefits, and it was a waste of time for him. The change began in Fucun. As for how far he can go, he has no idea.

Looking at the sallow and emaciated men, women and children in tattered clothes, Zhong Qingran felt a little uncomfortable.Those who will appear here are basically the worst "stuff". Those servants who come from rich families, have been carefully trained for many years, and have mastered various serving skills and non-popular skills, are all eaten and drank by everyone. Keeping them, of course, none of them are stupid, they only do this to sell them at a good price, and they will not appear in this kind of open space.The people here can't sell at a glance, and basically don't have much hope for the future.

Having lived with Zhong Qingran for nearly a year, Jian Mingyu knows his character very well, and Jian Mingyu's five senses are already much more sensitive than ordinary people. Zhong Qingran's emotional fluctuations, the two of them getting so close, he immediately, Just noticed.It's the same everywhere in the city, but in the border town, there is no difference except for the race.For a moment, he couldn't understand why Qingran had such an expression, but it didn't prevent him from understanding and adapting with his own thoughts.

Jian Mingyu is very clear that a family does not need two voices, if the husband and wife think differently, the family will not be far from disintegration.That being the case, he has to make some sacrifices. He can have his own thoughts, but he must not always think about confronting Qingran and avoiding him.He has to accept what he gains and what he loses.

Fortunately, the two have similar personalities, have never disagreed in the general direction, and get along very harmoniously in daily life.If not, I am afraid that the two of them would not come together.If you always suppress your nature, you will have problems sooner or later. From the current point of view, there is no such risk between the young couple Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu.After all, two people live together, relying on only one person to retreat endlessly, such a marriage will eventually crack after a long time.Perhaps both parties are aware of this, not only Jian Mingyu backed down, but Zhong Qingran also tried his best to cooperate, which is why the two rarely even had disputes.

In the market, farmers are the least valuable, and they are the ones with the most.Most of these people have traveled long distances and come from the area where the border town belongs to, and the three countries adjacent to it, so their condition is naturally not much better.Summer was already hot, so many ragged people gathered together, the smell was quite pungent.

Zhong Qingran was not used to it at first, but he got used to it after a while, no matter what, it was better than the smell of thatched cottage.He took a rough look around, and unlike what he saw in Pingyang County, the Zhou Dynasty people here can really only be described by the word "miserable", weak, too weak, and they can't even see a stronger person arrive.On the other hand, Beisha people and Harlan people are much more normal.

This point, Zhong Qingran understood after a while.I'm afraid that Supervisor Su used all kinds of means to sweep the market, and now these people are probably the ones left behind.Sympathy belongs to sympathy, Zhong Qingran can't say he is indifferent, but he has no way to take them away. The mountain road for a month or two is not what they are like, and their thin bodies can bear it. Bringing these people will only become their burden. No, the time has been delayed for a long time, and a large number of people may fall ill, which is not in line with his plan.

"Mingyu, you pick and see who is suitable for martial arts." There are too many sick and weak people, Zhong Qingran may not care about them, but he is still sure about a small number.Of course, practicing martial arts does not mean becoming a master of martial arts. The kind of martial arts that fly over walls and ride waves without a trace has never appeared in this world. At most, one must be physically stronger and be good at riding and shooting.

Jian Mingyu readily agreed, and looked at them one by one, but there were very few results, and only three people were picked out.Among the three people, two were sick and could not be treated, and one was probably hungry before, and had not recovered, and was too thin to be human.Regarding this, Zhong Qingran didn't even have the slightest intention to question it. He believed that Jian Mingyu had a picky eye. Since he gave Mingyu the right to choose, he would not interfere. , just mix into their team.

Look at these three people, they all looked listless, maybe they didn't even have much strength to walk, so Zhong Qingran asked them to stay here for now, and then take them away after they picked a good one.

Zhong Qingran originally wanted to pick up the missing ones, to see if there were any missing craftsmen, but the result was self-evident, except for the three people Jian Mingyu picked out, he didn't see half of the craftsmen he wanted.As for the farmers who tended the crops, he would gladly buy them in Pingyang County, but at the moment, he couldn’t. With them like this, if they bought them, they would probably end up on the road. It’s better to stay here, maybe they can find another one. Good Lord, there is hope for survival.

Beisha people and Harlan people are mostly tall and big. In terms of height and body shape, they compare with the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but those who stand at the top are average physical fitness, which is not as good as the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty in these two countries. , The body is not as good as the wisdom, this sentence is vividly reflected here.

"Mingyu, the manpower provided by shopkeeper Su will not be less than a thousand. Look, how many foreigners can you take away at most?" Zhong Qingran didn't want to bring hidden dangers to the team. Just taking so many people on the road would consume them all. With a lot of effort, if there are other voices in the team and they run halfway, the money will be wasted, and it will cause people's instability, unless Zhong Qingran directly uses the thunder method to kill chickens and monkeys. It's just such a bloody way of suppression. It is not a last resort, Zhong Qingran Not intended to be adopted.

Zhong Qingran's family knows his own family affairs, and he is far inferior to the locals in this world in terms of cruelty. In the eyes of high-ranking people, those who do big things don't care about trivial matters. Zhong Qingran obviously can't reach this height. He doesn't want to reach it in his lifetime. He is disappointed.

Lucky beads are easy to use, but they are too short-lived.People's hearts are fickle. If he can be grateful to you at this moment, he might be able to violently hurt others the next moment. Of course, this is conditional. different decisions.For example, now, Zhong Qingran can ensure that the people selected through the amulet attached with good luck will not harm him.But who can guarantee that when these foreigners reach a certain number, they will not be dissatisfied?

If it were Zhong Qingran himself, he would definitely find a way to escape.People are so contradictory, they can't do it themselves, but they think others can do it.

Zhong Qingran doesn't use his own thoughts to judge people in this world, especially places that are incompatible with this world, let alone use himself as a reference.If he is not suitable for himself, he will not mess around. Isn't there a native of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Jian Mingyu, beside him?At this time, it was naturally his turn to play.

Jian Mingyu thought about it in his mind, and found that there were not many foreigners in their team.The circumstances of the servants who appeared in the human market were not much different, but the people from Beisha and Haran were generally stronger than the people from Dazhou, especially those captives. They were all soldiers. It is also a little stronger than ordinary people.Ten or twenty people from Dazhou, who can guard two or three aliens by the way, is already the limit. After all, their main task is to travel, and it is impossible to waste all their energy on them.

"Happily, the most important thing for this trip is the stability of people's hearts. There can be no mistakes. It is better to have fewer candidates than to plant hidden dangers because of greed. In my opinion, it is best to control the number of people within one hundred. Anyway, we It's not short of such a few people." Jian Mingyu approached Zhong Qingran and said softly.

"Okay, then do as you say." Zhong Qingran agreed to the decision after a little thought.

Zhong Qingran and the others had to select nearly a hundred people, which would have taken a lot of work in the past, but they didn't need it now.In Beisha and Haran, there were quite a lot of captives. Jian Mingyu was in charge of selecting those who were suitable for martial arts, while Zhong Qingran was in charge of selecting those with various skills.Although the two went their own way, they did not divide into two groups. They still joined together and patronized the stalls one by one.

Because of being of a different race, Zhong Qingran didn't want to cause trouble for himself, and in line with the principle of not expensive, in the end, only sixty or so were selected by the two.Taking into account the ratio of men to women, there are more than [-] of them are women who are adults or are about to grow up.If this is not taken into account, I am afraid that the proportion of men will be even greater.No way, it was a coincidence that they encountered the special situation of selling captives this time. This is already a streamlined and streamlined number of people.

Zhong Qingran actually thought about buying more prisoners. It's not easy to say anything else, at least the fine work and the like can't be mixed into his team. Apart from this point of worry, these soldiers who have been abandoned by the country are not easy to think about running away.Later, I thought about it, forget it, Fucun needs to develop stably, no matter what country people are, they all have xenophobic thoughts, which is not light, and the population ratio is huge, so this kind of contradiction can be minimized, so that many troubles can be avoided .

The Great Zhou Dynasty was dominated by farming, while Haran was mostly herdsmen, and Beisha had both.The manpower for farming must have been settled by Manager Su. What Fucun lacks are craftsmen who were not very good at the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, most of Zhong Qingran's selections were good shepherds, as well as various craftsmen built on this basis, such as carpet makers.

After buying the person, Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu immediately took the person back to the inn where they stayed, and then sent a few patients to the hospital for medical treatment.After arranging this, the two of them continued non-stop, taking some of the village guards to make the final purchases, while the rest began to pack and salute and load the car.

The departure time is set for tomorrow, and they don't have much time left, so they must hurry up.

Zhong Qingran and the others only had 17 people, and it was really difficult to take care of nearly a thousand newly bought servants.There are many dangers in the mountains and forests, and the poisonous insect Zhong Qingran has a way to avoid it. It is almost impossible for such a mighty team to completely detour around the beast.If they were given the same weapons as everyone else, it would be a big threat to Zhong Qingran and his party. If they were not given anything to stand by, the village guards could only be responsible for clearing the way and driving or hunting the beasts on the way ahead of time. The amount is huge, and he doesn't know if this plan will work, so he can only try it first, and if it doesn't work, he will think of other ways.

Knowing that Zhong Qingran had such an idea, Jian Mingyu was afraid that he would, so he immediately put forward a better suggestion.People have a herd mentality, and no one will take the lead easily. Under no one's organization, the servants they bought will not act rashly, especially after entering the vast mountains, how many people have the courage to dare to instigate People's hearts?Unless they don't want to live anymore, is that possible?If they really didn't care about it, they wouldn't sell themselves as slaves and earn a living.

After buying some grain and bedding, Zhong Qingran stopped.

The newly bought maids were placed in Datong shop. Even if they lived in the lowest guest room and ate the cheapest meals, it was enough to make their numb hearts stir up waves.Ever since they sold themselves as slaves and came to the border town for various reasons, they have not lived a peaceful life, and food and lodging are even more unbearable.I don't know if the new owner will continue to maintain such a good treatment.

Zhong Qingran didn't know what the servant girl was thinking.On this day, except for a few people who were on duty at night, everyone else went to bed early.From tomorrow onwards, they will no longer have such a leisurely day. If they don't maintain ample energy and set off on their way home, they are afraid that they will be exhausted.

The next day, Zhong Qingran woke up very early, but even so, he woke up one step later than the others.Zhong Qingran was deeply moved. He was able to do this because he had never experienced any real hardships, nor was his spine bent by others. He did not have a strong sense of urgency, so he lived as comfortably as he could.

Although Zhong Qingran knew it in his heart, he didn't want to change it.It is also a blessing to be able to enjoy it. Everyone has their own position. If you want to climb to a high position, you must work hard. He will create a promotion channel for them. It is up to them whether they can seize the opportunity.

"Check again to see if there is anything missing." Jian Mingyu was more careful, and he was responsible for the luggage inspection.

The inn was poorly furnished, and it was obvious at a glance if something was left behind.The people who were sent to check the guest rooms quickly returned to the line, all of them empty-handed, obviously not missing a single bit.

Zhong Qingran sat on the snow tread and ordered to the team that was ready to go: "Let's go!"

The procession started gradually, with the maids in front, the carriages pulling goods behind, and Zhong Qingran and a few men on horseback standing guard on both sides.There are many caravans in the border town, and they are unremarkable pedestrians.The city has always been relatively safe, and now it's sunny again, Zhong Qingran and his party left the city gate very smoothly.

But this does not mean that no one pays attention to them, at least several forces have noticed Zhong Qingran and his party.Looking at the convoy slowly leaving the city gate, some looked away, while others fell far behind, wanting to see where they were going.

Zhong Qingran and the others were already careful and cautious, but their actions were extremely inconsistent with the caravan's behavior, and it was difficult not to draw attention.Look at their behavior. When they came, they directly used horses to carry the goods, which was very puzzling. After all, no caravan would do this, and it was simply at their own expense.

Well, at this point, it can be considered that the head of the caravan is not flexible enough. Thinking about it this way, he can barely convince himself.What about the goods you bought?They were all worthless items, and they bought a little of everything with a hammer here and there, and they mainly used coarse grains and cloth. They really couldn't figure out what they wanted to do.But if they have any other motives, they can't seem to find it.Zhong Qingran and his party have always behaved well, and they have never violated any prohibitions.Even the day before they left, they only bought sixty or seventy servants, which made some of those who observed them give up and continue to explore.

It's weird, it's weird, close to such a small number of people, there is no way to turn the tide, they don't need to pay too much attention to it.

There are quite a few people who hold this kind of thinking, and there are several forces that are unwilling to give up.These organizations were worried. Such a strange team suddenly appeared. They wanted to see what kind of medicine Zhong Qingran and his party were selling in the gourd.

As soon as he left the city gate, Zhong Qingran stepped on his horse and quickly lost sight of everyone.After arriving at the predetermined location, he took out the binoculars and looked around to make sure that no one could notice his actions, and then let Minglei fly.

These days, Minglei has not been able to soar in the sky, it is simply bored to death.Fortunately, it is very smart, and it doesn't even sing at ordinary times, otherwise, it might have been exposed long ago.

Zhong Qingran also had no choice, Minglei was too dazzling, and the people of Hewan Village knew that his family had two eagles. If they didn't hide them, his identity might be exposed early in the morning. Even if no one was sure, at least they would be suspicious. will seriously affect his actions.This is completely different from their behavior, which is different from ordinary caravans.

Who would not want the person whom the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty wanted to arrest?All capable princes extended their hands to the border towns. To them, this was a great achievement. They could not only please the current emperor, but also suppress dissidents. Why not do such a thing that kills two birds with one stone?If you don't take it if it's good, it must be that person's brain is twitched.

Zhong Qingran had already looked through the binoculars and saw someone falling behind their team. Regarding this, he didn't take any immediate action. If he wanted to follow, he could follow. As long as he didn't do anything to them, he could follow them.Of course, it must not be like this all the time. If they are too close to the mountain pass, their whereabouts will be exposed.He thought, if he walks a little further away, he will scare them away. If anyone is still stubborn, then don't blame him for being the first to act first.I have been warned, and I am still clinging, isn't this courting death?All the consequences are borne by them, and they cannot blame others.

Zhong Qingran felt that he was kind enough. Like him, there were not many local residents who valued human life so seriously. There was not a single person who could climb to a high position and stand tall.Even if they didn't have the will, there must be quite a few people who died because of them.

On this point, Zhong Qingran did not dare to pat his chest to promise.Maybe, someone was exhausted by his family and lost his life.The general environment is like this, Zhong Qingran is also the same.It is impossible for him to be captured obediently just because he cared about others.

Minglei soared into the sky, hovering in the blue sky for a long time, and then began to inspect the situation around the team.

After listening to the crisp and cheerful eagle crowing that Zhong Qingran hadn't heard for several days, Zhong Qingran was thrown behind the line, the unhappiness caused by the passerby was a little bit lessened, and a smile filled his face again.

Zhong Qingran stopped at the side of the road and did not move forward.Without making him wait for too long, Jian Mingyu led the team to catch up with him, and the two of them ran neck to neck.

"Mingyu, when do you think we will do it?" Zhong Qingran asked in a low voice with a smile on his face.

"Let's go for a while, and act when you want to go down this official road." A cold light flashed in Jian Mingyu's eyes, why is it so difficult to live a peaceful life?Wherever you go, you will encounter disputes.

Most things in the world are like this.When you are incapable, you are bullied by others. It is okay to say that you are bullied at most. As long as your luck is not too bad, your life is in danger.If they are in the rising stage and their own ability is not enough to protect themselves, then the consequences will be hard to say. Be good and distribute enough profits, which may protect their safety, but how many people will be willing to suffer a great loss of their own interests?

This forms a vicious circle. When he is weak, others bully him, and when he becomes stronger, he bullies others in turn. It is endless.

Zhong Qingran didn't want to be slaughtered, so he could only make himself stronger.He is now working towards this goal.Otherwise, how could he have worked so hard to run around in the mountains for several months?With all these things, isn't he just trying to live a stable life for himself, so that his family will no longer be bullied?It's a pity that there is not much time for him to develop steadily, so he can only venture to the border town once.
