This Qi country is worthy of being the second most powerful country among Zhou Qi, Jing and Qian, and its imperial capital, Shengjing, is extremely prosperous.
Looking at the lights and colorful decorations everywhere, some people thought it was the Chinese New Year, but who could have imagined that this scene appeared in Qi State, which had just lost a battle.
There are many brothels on both sides. The women standing at the door soliciting customers are dressed in cool clothes, and their white and tender skin is reflected in the light under the gauze, which makes people think.
Zhao Kang saw a few generous customers. After stuffing the banknotes into the belly pocket of the woman's chest, he took the girl into the building and put his hand directly under her skirt.
The woman made a few confusing sounds in cooperation, and it probably took less than a stick of incense to make her opponent hand over his gun and surrender.
There are countless brothels, brothels, and entertainers on this street. Listening to the guests in the brothel playing guessing and drinking, the women laughed again and again.
It made Zhao Kang quite emotional. The merchant girl did not know the hatred for the country's subjugation, but she still sang the flowers in the backyard across the river. This was probably what she was talking about.
There seemed to be some excitement around a group of people in front. Zhao Kang glanced at it, turned to Wu Tianhu and asked with a smile: "Senior, where do you want to go and see?"
"It's up to you. I don't know if those opponents from Qi are still in Shengjing City. My hands are a little itchy." Wu Tianhu yawned.
It seems that nothing in the world is attractive to this guy. Only strong opponents and profound martial arts secrets can lift his spirits.
After taking Wu Rulong and squeezing into the crowd, Zhao Kang saw a peasant woman in somewhat tattered clothes standing in the crowd with a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
The peasant woman's face was a little dirty, sallow and thin, and she was 1.6 meters short, not as tall as the girl next to her.
She seemed to be a hungry citizen somewhere. The girl looked quite fair, and her clothes were much cleaner and neater. It looked like she had been specially washed.
He just looks thin and gives people a feeling of malnutrition.
Other than that, the wheel looks really good, and you can tell she is a beautiful woman.
The girl had a straw stuck in her back collar.
Zhao Kang knew what this meant. What the invincible Guan Erye said in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was the current situation.
"It turns out he is selling his daughter." Zhao Kang thought to himself, then felt bored and called Wu Tianhu and planned to leave.
There are many poor people in the world, and he is not the reincarnation of Guanshiyin, the Living Buddha, so he cannot save so many.
Just when he was about to leave, the peasant woman looked at the people around her and suddenly spoke.
"Masters, please treat me as if I were buying a kitten or puppy when I buy this child. The child's father went to the battlefield and died on the battlefield, and his hometown suffered another disaster. He really can't live anymore."
"There are two little ones at home, so there is really no other way. I just want you to enjoy the food. My girl is capable and has a lot of work to do. Just buy her back and give her three meals a day!"
The peasant woman couldn't help but shed tears at the corners of her eyes as she spoke, and the little girl also shed tears silently. When she learned that she was going to be sold in exchange for money to support her two younger brothers, she already knew her future fate, and now she had no choice but to do so. The pain and helplessness of not accepting it.
Zhao Kang paused and turned around. Behind him, Wu Tianhu smiled and said, "Why, are you feeling compassionate?"
He used the martial arts method of gathering energy to form sounds, so that others could not hear what he said.
Zhao Kang also responded: "I can't say, I just feel a little emotional when I think about the fact that the backbone of this family died in our hands."
Wu Tianhu chuckled: "Isn't this considered compassion?"
Zhao Kang shrugged and took out three taels of broken silver from his sleeve. Just as he was about to hand it to the peasant woman, a voice from behind suddenly sounded unpleasant.
"Make way, everyone, make way for our young master!"
Zhao Kang and Wu Tianhu were both pushed aside by the screaming bastard, but neither of them paid attention.
I saw a fat man in rich clothes and carrying a birdcage, and he squeezed into the crowd, escorted by seven or eight servants.
The fat man was about twenty-five or six years old, with only a slit left for his eyes. When he saw the girl who was about to be sold, he stared blankly and his eyes shone.
"What a little beauty! Master, I just like young babies like this! Hey, that old woman, how can you sell this daughter for such a high price!"
After hearing this, the peasant woman looked at the fat man with some fear, after all what this guy had just done and said.
She didn't look like a good person, so she said cautiously: "Five, five taels of silver."
"Hoho? You actually need five taels of silver. Tsk, tsk, your daughter is a hen that can lay golden eggs?" the fat man said with a smile, and the loser next to him suddenly laughed.
The little girl was so frightened that she shrank behind her mother and looked at the fat man and the others with tears in her eyes.
"Little beauty, don't hide. Come and let me inspect the goods first. Are you worth five taels of silver?"
The fat man said that he was about to reach out and grab the little girl. At this moment, the peasant woman was obviously a little panicked. Although she sold her daughter, she had no choice but to live.
In her heart, she wanted to find a good family for her daughter, but this fat man didn't look like a good person at first glance. How could she be willing to sell her daughter to such a person?
He quickly stopped the fat man with his hands and his eyes were full of pleading: "Uncle, uncle, I won't sell it anymore. Please let us orphans and widows go."
"You don't want to sell it? That's not possible. Master, you have to sell the things I like even if you don't want to!"
The fat man was obviously used to it, and he threw the peasant woman away.
Suddenly there were people nearby who couldn't stand it anymore and shouted angrily: "What's wrong with you? It's already miserable enough for people to be orphans and widowed, but you still bully them like this!"
"Who the hell is not wearing pants and exposing your thing? Do you know who our young master is? If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
Fatty's dog legs barked.
The peasant woman protected her daughter and backed away quickly: "Uncle, please let us go."
The fat man stepped forward with a smile: "That's not possible. Don't be afraid, little beauty. Follow my young master and I will ensure that you have a good time and drink well."
Seeing him approaching and grabbing her daughter behind her, the peasant woman immediately pushed the fat man around for the sake of her daughter, almost falling. This made him angry, so she rushed forward and slapped him with her hand.
"Fuck! I'm giving you shameless thugs! I'm giving you face?"
This time, Zhao Kang couldn't stand it anymore. He stepped forward and grabbed the fat man's hand, and said calmly: "The law of Qi allows forced buying and selling?"
Before the fat man could say anything, the bastard behind him rushed forward and said viciously: "Where did you come from, you wild boy? Get out of here! Our young master is the son of the Minister of Rites, can you afford to offend him?"
The people around him were frightened and dispersed quickly. The young master of a minister was not someone they could afford to offend.
Those who still had the idea of fighting injustice in their hearts chose to turn around at this moment.
Zhao Kang sneered and used his right hand to increase his strength: "Really? Then I really want to offend you!"
