Circular set means the continuous circulation of money and goods. In fact, this market has indeed achieved this. At first, there were many types of goods sold here, but since Xuan Sizhe, the emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom, promulgated the legalization of slave trade, it has attracted a lot of people.
For the majority of human traffickers and slave owners on the continent of Landia, the trading of other commodities has been relatively weakened, and the focus of trading has completely shifted to the slave trade.
Yan Yue quietly landed at the back of the team. To be precise, she deliberately came behind Tang Lie and reminded in a low voice: "After entering the market, you must not talk nonsense. If it angers the owner, she will most likely
We will auction you off on the spot."
Tang Lie said with a smile: "If the person who buys me is a charming and charming beauty, I would rather be sold by her!"
Yan Yue whispered: "With your figure and appearance, I'm afraid the brothel will be more interested in you!"
Tang Lie nodded hurriedly and said, "It's exactly what I want. This kind of job is what I dream of."
Yan Yue secretly pointed at a paunchy lady not far away and whispered: "If you are sold to a brothel, most of the people who patronize you will be such customers!"
The lady happened to turn her head, her goldfish eyes immediately glowed strangely when she saw the handsome Tang Lie, her thick lips grinned, revealing a mouth of rotten yellow teeth.
Tang Lie shuddered and his head drooped quickly. If he took one more look, he would probably vomit out his overnight meal.
Yan Yue smiled gently, turned to the other companions and said, "The auction is about to begin. The master just ordered that Tang Lie and these two biters do not need to participate in the auction. After the auction is over, they will be brought back to the mansion."
Tang Lie secretly chuckled in his heart. This was not only because he did not have to be auctioned, but also a more important reason was that he found that he was no longer as hungry as before. He actually felt disgusted when he saw the noble lady. Compared with before,
Even the sight of the female leopard's white butt would cause evil thoughts, but it has obviously improved a lot. It seems that the effect of Spuri's medicine has begun to fade in the body. It won't be long before I can be the sensible, elegant, cultivated and personable person I am.
Dr. Tang Lie.
Music similar to Scottish bagpipes sounded in his ears. Tang Lie looked in the direction of the sound and saw four enchanting female slaves dancing wildly to the music at the entrance of the market.
Seeing his expression, Yan Yue had already guessed what was thinking in his mind at the moment. With a blushing face, she tapped his waist with the scabbard and scolded: "Why don't you leave quickly? You've delayed the auction, Master.
I’m going to punish you again!”
Tang Lie swallowed, feeling a dull pain in his dry throat, and a slight numbness in his hands and feet. This was a normal reaction after the effects of the Spray drug took effect.
Yan Yue saw his lustful gaze and couldn't help but think of the kiss she had just had on the boat. Her heart beat wildly and her pretty face turned to the side to avoid Tang Lie's burning gaze.
On the right side of the road, a series of high platforms with different styles have been erected, and on the high platforms stand slaves preparing for auction. Maisie's auction house is located on the twelfth high platform on the left. Although the high platforms have different architectural styles, the structures are very consistent.
, the lower level is divided into cages with thick wooden pillars, and all the slaves will be temporarily detained here. The platform on the upper level is where the slaves are displayed.
Except for Tang Lie, all the Biters were imprisoned on the bottom floor of the high platform. They realized that they would soon be thrown into new hardships, and they hugged each other and cried loudly.
Yan Yue escorted Tang Lie to behind Mei Xi. Mei Xi's expression became much more natural. It seemed that the effect of the senna leaves in her body had worn off. She whispered to Yan Yue: "Yan Yue, give this to everyone."
Are you ready for the gift of joints?"
Yan Yue smiled and said: "Everything is ready. I have asked Lizhu to deliver the gifts first. The ordering customers will arrive soon after receiving the news."
Macy nodded with satisfaction, but still looked worried.
Yan Yue whispered in her ear: "I plan to go to General Lang and his wife in the evening."
Macy sighed quietly and said, "If they treat me half as well as they treat you, I'll be satisfied."
Yan Yue comforted her and said: "The two old men just have some misunderstandings about you. I believe that one day they will understand your painstaking efforts."
"I hope so!" Mai Qian subconsciously covered her chest and looked at Tang Lie. It can be said that she was bitten by a snake once and was afraid of well ropes for ten years.
"Pervert!" Maisie cursed in her mind.
Suddenly, Yan Yue reminded her: "Master, Marquis Chongwen and Fulong Hai are coming towards us."
Mai Qian frowned slightly and whispered: "How come the two of them get together?"
Tang Lie followed Mai Xi's gaze and saw two middle-aged people in gorgeous clothes walking side by side towards the auction table. The one on the left was about two meters tall, with a majestic figure, beard and hair like flames, and a face like a marble relief.
It was clear that his gray-blue eyes were filled with gloom, and one glance revealed that this person had a very deep city. He was Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi, and he was also one of the most powerful people in the imperial capital.
Although Fulonghai was a head shorter than Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi, his physique was not inferior at all. His neck was very short, his big round head seemed to poke directly on his shoulders, and his abdomen was bulging high, like a pregnant woman who was nine months pregnant.
His skin color is also extremely fair and delicate. A pair of small eyes appear smaller and smaller in his fat and bulging face. A few sparse beards grow randomly on his chin. There is always a simple and kind smile on his face.
It is difficult to associate him with the word businessman, but he is the richest businessman in the imperial capital.
Although Zhu Yi and Fulong Hai were still far away from the auction stage, Mai Qi had already stood up with a smile, took the initiative to greet them, and said with a sweet smile: "The two Gods of Wealth arrived so early!"
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi nodded lightly. He had always been aloof and looked cold at all times.
Fulonghai was completely different from him. He smiled and said: "The Marquis's courtyard has just been completed, and I came here specially to buy a batch of slaves for him."
Maisie knew Fulonghai very well and knew that he was good at speculation and specialization and had connections with most of the princes and nobles of the empire. This time she must have taken advantage of the completion of Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi's mansion to show her favor to him.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi smiled calmly and said: "Boss Fu is too polite, but it's hard to refuse such kindness, so I have no choice but to agree."
Fulonghai said with a charming smile: "I have been thinking about Boss Mei coming back for the past two days, and I bumped into him as expected. When you left last time, I entrusted you to bring back some bit slaves for me."
Macy smiled and said: "How dare I forget Boss Fu's instructions. Each of these one hundred and sixty-eight biters are young and strong, so Boss Fu can be picky."
Fulong Hai walked slowly to the front of the wooden cage and circled around the auction table. He gently twirled the sparse beard under his chin with his chubby fingers, nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, although Bit Man is short in stature,
But planting flowers and trees is an innate ability. The Marquis's flower house needs at least fifty slaves, so I will choose sixty strong slaves and send them there, which should be enough."
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi was also very satisfied with this batch of bit slaves. He nodded and said: "Yes, that's it."
Fulong Haidao: "Boss Mei, are the prices the same as before?"
Macy nodded. Fulonghai was her regular customer and she wouldn't do any tricks when it came to prices.
Fulonghai said: "Boss Mei, help me choose. I will send it directly to the Marquis' hotel later." He waved his hand, and the butler behind him, Fulin, counted three hundred gold coins and handed them to Mai Qi.
Tang Lie secretly calculated that the profit from buying and selling slaves was indeed huge. He only sold 60 biters and almost made his money back. No wonder this little bitch went into human trafficking without conscience.
Chongwen Hou Zhu Yi's eyes suddenly fell on the corner of the wooden cage. He pointed at one of the bit slaves and roared: "You! Turn around!"
Macy was slightly startled and looked along his direction. The trembling biter turned out to be Ada whom Tang Lie had named.
Ada covered her face and did not dare to look back. Mercy winked, and two warriors rushed into the cage and dragged out Ada who was already scared out of his mind.
Zhu Yi kicked Ada's thin body and turned it over. After seeing his appearance clearly, he said angrily: "Who do I think I am? It's really you, a beast!"
Ada cried and knelt down on the ground, kowtowing and said: "Ada deserves death, please forgive me!"
Fulonghai asked curiously: "Does the Marquis recognize this biter?"
Zhu Yi nodded angrily and said, "I recognized him when he turned into ashes. He was the one who killed my golden peony that day and escaped from the Marquis Mansion out of fear of crime."
Mai Qian was shocked. She didn’t expect that Ada turned out to be Zhu Yi’s slave. Everyone knew that Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi loved flowers as much as his life. He collected all kinds of precious flowers and trees everywhere. The golden peonies he said were his most cherished flowers. Three years ago
He once won the championship at the Imperial Flower Festival, but died unexpectedly shortly after winning the championship. For this reason, Zhu Yi killed all the bit slaves who were responsible for growing flowers. Unexpectedly, Ada turned out to be the lucky one to escape.
In anger, Zhu Yi suddenly pulled out the diamond-encrusted dagger from his waist, gritted his teeth and said, "Today I will cut you into pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart."
Seeing that Marquis Chongwen was really angry, Mei Xi and the others did not dare to say anything. With their current status, how could they dare to offend this powerful figure in the empire.
Ada's face was ashen and he collapsed on the ground in fear, closing his eyes and waiting for death.
Fulonghai's face became a little embarrassed. He originally wanted to use the opportunity of giving gifts to gain support from the powerful, but he didn't expect to bring a lot of anger to Chongwen Marquis.
Tang Lie saw the sudden change in the situation in the audience, and was about to rush out, but Yan Yue put a knife on his neck from behind, and whispered: "You have nothing to do here, if you dare to cause trouble, I will kill you with one knife!"
At this time, a short figure struggled to climb out of the wooden cage, but it was Oscar with a broken leg. He screamed and struggled to break away from the warrior's grasp, trying to crawl to Ada's side to protect him.
Macy couldn't help but be moved. She had never thought that there could be such a sincere friendship between Bit people.
A sarcastic smile appeared on the lips of Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi, and he said coldly: "Let him go, I want to see what he wants to do?"
The two warriors hesitantly let go of Oscar. Oscar moved to Ada's side with difficulty, blocked Ada with his short and fat body, pointed at his chest, and then pointed at Ada. He wanted to exchange his life for Ada.
.
Even a philistine like Fulong Hai couldn't help but be moved by the friendship between the two bit slaves at this moment. He lowered his head and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi sneered: "Okay! I never thought you stupid and despicable people would actually have some affection. I will help you today!" He swung his knife and struck Oscar on the head.
At this time, a roar suddenly came from the auction platform: "You are still a prince after all, do you have no laws and want to kill people in broad daylight?"
The short knife in Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi's hand was frozen about two inches away from Oscar's head, and the cold and murderous sword energy had already cut Oscar's thatch-like hair.
He raised his head angrily. Not many people in the imperial capital dared to speak to him in such a tone.
Yan Yue's pretty face suddenly lost all color, she still couldn't stop Tang Lie after all.
Tang Lie slowly pushed away the scimitar on his neck and slowly walked down the stairs. Everyone could tell from his anklet that he should be a slave. The sun shone directly on Tang Lie's handsome face, and his expression
Proud and resolute, without any fear or anxiety in his eyes.
Zhu Yi's face turned livid, and he was actually scolded by a slave in front of everyone. If this incident spread, he would definitely become the laughing stock of the empire. His red hair was standing up one by one, and there was a strong murderous intention all over his body.
Macy's heart sank, the situation was beyond control. Even though she didn't like Tang Lie, she still didn't want him to die in vain. She angrily said: "Come quickly and drag this bold and reckless bastard down.
I will beat him to death!" Everyone could tell that although she was scolding Tang Lie, she was actually defending him in disguise.
Chongwen Hou Zhu Yi sneered and put it bluntly: "Does Boss Mei want to protect his shortcomings?"
Macy was speechless for a moment, but she saw that Tang Lie had separated from everyone and came to Oscar and Ada. She gently patted their shoulders and said with a smile: "If the sky falls, someone taller should hold it up!"
Chongwen Hou Zhu Yi came to Tang Lie step by step: "Are you teaching me a lesson?"
Tang Lie nodded, but he was always on guard against the dagger in Zhu Yi's hand. He had practiced fighting several times, but he had never had the experience of grabbing a blade with bare hands.
Yan Yue's vision went dark on the auction stage, and she hurriedly held on to the pillar on the side, relying on its support to avoid falling to the ground.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi suddenly burst into laughter. He glared into Tang Lie's eyes and said, "I will make you regret coming to this world!" Before he finished speaking, the short knife in his hand stabbed Tang Lie's chest like lightning, and everyone screamed in surprise at the same time.
Phew, when he looked again, Tang Lie's right hand had firmly grasped the blade, and for a moment the short sword shone with a strange blue light.
Tang Lie looked at his right hand in disbelief. A huge and unparalleled force continued to flow out along his right arm, followed by pain like skin tearing. His entire arm seemed to be...
The pain caused him to let go of the blade he had grasped.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi roared loudly, straightened the tip of his knife and stabbed Tang Lie in the chest for the second time.
A quiet sigh came from behind, the voice was soft and graceful, as if it had been touching the bottom of your heart. A charming female voice came from not far away: "Boss Mei, did you bring those two biters for me?
?”
Everyone was startled, and the crowd parted, only to see a beautiful girl in her prime walking slowly. She was about twenty-five or six years old, with long purple-red hair tied high and forming petals on her head.
Her hair is in the shape of a bun, her complexion is as delicate and smooth as milk, and her neck has a very beautiful curve. She is wearing a hollow golden dress, and she has a tall figure. The exquisite and fitted tailoring perfectly highlights her curvy body. The dress is open at the five fingers on the hip side.
The shorts, somewhat like a Chinese cheongsam, gently move the lotus steps, and a pair of slender legs appear and disappear, stirring the deepest desire in a man's heart.
Except for Tang Lie who looked directly at this girl, most of the others lowered their eyes, which showed that this girl's status was extraordinary.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi also had to temporarily put away his anger, and he and Fulonghai bowed at the same time, and said respectfully: "I didn't know that the eldest princess was coming. I hope you will forgive me for being disrespectful!"
It turns out that this stunningly charming girl is actually the direct sister of Emperor Xuan Sizhe of Xuanwu Kingdom, Princess Taiping Xuan Siling. Although Xuan Sizhe has many brothers, he only has this one sister. He has always doted on her.
Siling was once married to the imperial general Tyranny, but not long after the marriage, Tyranny died in a battle with the Lande Empire. Xuan Siling has been a widow to this day.
Speaking of which, Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi was originally just a general under Tyranny. In the past two years, he had risen through the ranks to reach such a respected position. He was more in awe of Xuan Siling than others.
Mei Xi did not have much contact with Xuan Siling. She only heard that the eldest princess had been living a very disorderly private life since she became a widower. She had affairs with many ministers of the empire, and her reputation for debauchery spread throughout the imperial capital.
Xuan Siling ignored the greetings of Zhu Yi and Fulong Hai, his eyes fell on Oscar and Ada, and sighed softly: "These two Bit people seem to be very loyal, I like them very much, I don't know Miss Mei
What price do you want?" Before Maisie could answer, she raised her slender hands and said, "Let's do this, I'll give you two hundred gold coins!"
The maid behind him took out a purse containing two hundred gold coins and handed it to Maisie.
Maisie stayed there for a while. This short period of time was thrilling for her. She did not expect that Ada turned out to be a slave who escaped from Zhu Yi's mansion, nor did she expect that when a tragedy was about to happen, Taiping
Princess Xuan Siling will suddenly appear.
Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi's face turned completely livid. Princess Taiping was clearly going against him by doing this, but the other party was so powerful that she didn't dare to offend him, so she had to suppress her tone of voice.
Xuan Siling's eyes fell on Tang Lie again, and he laughed softly: "What's your name?"
"Tang Lie!" Tang Lie's eyes fell into Xuan Siling's charming and gentle eyes, and he was unable to pull out.
"You are so brave, you actually dare to go against the Marquis! Why don't you quickly make amends to the Marquis, or I will definitely punish you!" Xuan Siling's words made Tang Lie's previous crime of contradicting invisible.
Tang Lie was so smart. He had already seen that this sexy girl had a great background. If he could get her protection, it would be very easy to get ahead here in the future. Pretending to be sincere, he bowed to Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi and apologized: "
Tang Lie has just arrived, but he doesn’t recognize Mount Tai. I hope Lord Marquis will forgive me!”
Of course Chongwen Marquis Zhu Yi didn't know what it meant to be blind to Mount Tai, but he knew it when Tang Lie was apologizing to him.
Xuan Siling saw Zhu Yi's stiff expression and knew that he must be deeply resentful. He smiled and said: "What kind of status is Mr. Hou, how can he meet such a reckless boy like you?"
Zhu Yi saw that Xuan Siling wanted to protect Tang Lie today, and it would be difficult for him to regain face if he persisted. He said coldly: "The eldest princess is right, how can I be the same as you?" Even so, he said so.
, but could not easily swallow this breath in his heart. After saying goodbye to Xuan Siling, he turned around and left with the frightened Fulong Hai.
