Chapter 94 (1/2)
The slave trader noticed the crowd getting bigger He did not immediately sell the child slaves Instead, he told his two brawny subordinates to push a huge iron cage up to the platfor ht-skinned, some were tall and some were short The dark-skinned slaves were ht-skinned slaves were mostly natives of the Eht out of prison by the slave traders as slaves
”These strong fellows- buy them for work! One can do two… no, three persons' worth of work! Look at their bodies! Look at their old coins! Five gold coins for each slave! What? Expensive? It is not expensive! I do honest business! How about this? If you buy an adult slave, I will give you a free child slave! Buy one, get one free!”
The slave trader's spit flew in all directions as he spoke After that, he signaled his two brawny subordinates with his eyes His subordinates understood the signal and used their whips to threaten the slaves in the cage The slaves were frightened by the whip and stood up one after another A few of the dark-skinned slaves were very angry and glared at the two subordinates
”Look at this face! Look!” The slave trader shouted even louder There were a few people, dressed in nificent clothes, who stood below the platform They continuously instructed their subordinates and servants to bid for the slaves
”Why do these slaves look dispirited and weak?” Jojo could not help but ask
Rody coldly replied, ”If a person does have enough to eat for days, of course they would look dispirited! These people are young and strong If they had eaten enough, they would be full of energy I aht back and run away”
Jojo sighed and felt discoh she had a few slaves in her ho The moment she saw those pitiful people, a trace of compassion formed in her heart
The young and strong slaves were very popular In a short period, the slaves were all sold out That slave trader was very happy as he held the money The slaves were sent to the back of the platform to be collected by their buyers
When the cage on the platform was ee down from the platform
The slave trader walked in front of a row of children He pinched one of the little girls' soft and lovely cheeks and shouted, ”Take a look at her! Quick, take a look at her! What a fair and cute child! Although she is still young, if you buy her and raise her for three to five years, she will become a beauty! Masters, buy one back She will becoolds!”
The little girl was about eleven or twelve years old She was so frightened that she turned pale and her eyes were full of tears However, she saw the brawny subordinate holding a whip next to her and did not dare to cry out
Below the platforown shouted, ”Ten gold coins? That is too expensive! It was just five gold coins for an adult!”
The slave trader smiled happily and said, ”Master, I aolds to buy the little girl and I will give you a little boy free of charge How about that?”
The buyers below the platform whispered to one another
Someone immediately shouted, ”What is the use of the little boy? He is too young and will not be able to work for us! If I bought him back, I would need to raise him for another few years before he becomes a laborer!”
In the slave trading business,pretty little girls were also quite popular However, nobody illing to buy young little boys
Nevertheless, the slave trader was very smart He smiled and said, ”Masters, look at these little children I carefully selected each and every one of theuide the servants Definitely worth it! On top of that, I ae! Masters, please think about it With ten gold coins, you can buy a little beauty and get a sain!”
The slave trader saw that audience still hesitated He bit his lip and painfully shouted, ”How about this? Eight gold coins! Eight gold coins! Buy a little girl and get a little boy for free!”
As he spoke, he pinched the little girl's cheeks
They saw that the little girl on the platform was really delicate and pretty In a short period of time, a feell-dressed buyers were tempted A few of them were actually involved in the prostitution business They planned to buy the little girl, train her for a while and get her to start accepting customers
Rody felt gloory He was born as an ordinary citizen and he knew that soes at the borders There were also some ere poor local citizens They were forced to sell their children to survive
However, slavery was legal in the Eh Rody felt that it was unfair, he was helpless
Jojo felt extre all the little girls and desperately pulled at Rody's clothes However, Rody was glooer and shouted, ”Eight golds each! I want them all!”
While the audience still hesitated, Jojo had shouted and caused an uproar The slave trader was attracted by Jojo's words He immediately looked at her and sment!”
Before the slave trader could finish speaking, some of the people had already quit The other buyers were stirred up and did not want to let Jojo buy the little girls first They were reluctant to let all the good stuff in front of theht by someone else and loudly protested
