Chapter 38 The Slave Market
I heard that the exchange festival of the rhinoceros tribe is also held in these few days.

"Boss, we are late this time, I don't know if we can still pick a good product."

"Don't worry, I have already established a relationship with the orc in charge this time. The best ones are reserved for us!"

Although the orcs in the caravan often spanked and chatted, they didn't have much useful information. Xiaoliang and Sinian could only follow along first, adapting to the situation.

After another half a day, the caravan finally arrived at what Jia Wu described—the river valley where the rhinoceros orcs lived.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Xiaoliang easily climbed to the top of the tall trees nearby.

She climbed high and looked far: I saw countless cooking smoke curling up in the distance, all revealing the fireworks of life.

Compared with the primitiveness and backwardness of the Chuanshan tribe, the rhinoceros tribe relied on the development of trade, and both the number of orcs and the standard of living were superior.

As the overlord of the river valley, the rhino family is not easy to mess with!
But deep in the glitz, there is a stricter hierarchy and traditional bad habits than the Chuanshan tribe, dark and ignorant.

In the exchange festival here, what is sold is not ordinary food, but living orcs, the so-called slave beasts.

Trading slaves can also be regarded as a necessary process for the evolution from primitive tribes to slave societies.

But when Xiaoliang and Si Nian actually entered the trading market, they deeply realized the filth and cruelty hidden under the so-called system.

In the not-so-big venue, the stall owners are showing their products to the guests——

The slave beasts that were bound or locked in small cages were naked and naked, with mud on their feet and bodies; most of them were so thin that only skin and bones remained, and some of them were covered with old and new scars.

Si Nian held Xiaoliang's hand tightly, pretending to be calm and not allowing himself to show any flaws.

"What do we do now?" Xiao Liang asked.

"Look at it first."

Si Nian pretended to be a customer, led Xiao Liang to a stall, and asked the stall owner, "How do you sell slave beasts? What's the price?"

The stall owner didn't even raise his head and answered directly: "We don't accept star coins. If you want to buy something, you can barter."

Si Nian: "Is food okay?"

"Yes. A standard bag of rice can be exchanged for an eight- to 12-year-old ordinary slave animal with all four limbs.

If combat effectiveness is needed, five bags for first-level fighters, ten bags for second-level fighters, and another for fighters above third level.

Other trading items can be converted based on the rice price. "

This is the first time for Xiaoliang and Sinian to hear: There are actually slave beasts with combat power for sale!Even if it's just a beginner's level, it's amazing!
Si Nian was thinking, where would these war slaves be used by the buyer after the trade, to start a war?
It's really scary.

And Xiaoliang's only feeling is: It's so cheap!
According to the federal price estimate, a standard bag of rice is worth 50 star coins, and a bottle of energy liquid costs tens of thousands.

"Would you like to buy it?" Xiao Liang simply felt that she could afford it.

And Si Nian was really moved.

In the Beast World Federation, it is obviously illegal to betray orcs, but in some remote autonomous planets, as long as they have money, these are not a problem.

As the young head of the shepherd family, in order not to become a victim of the family's power struggle, he began to consciously cultivate his own power after he met Xiao Liang and got a new life when he was eight years old.

But Si Nian, who is only supported by Berg, is still too weak after all. Although he has invested in some industries and cultivated some confidantes, for a herdsman who has stood for thousands of years, it is still no different from a mayfly shaking a big tree.

If you want to expand your influence and expand your industry, you must have a foundation and resources.

So, Si Nian used the money he earned over the years to buy a small mining star with autonomy and named it "LN520".

The ore star is not big, but it has a lot of resources, and cheap labor is needed for mining.

And the opportunity in front of him was just right.

"purchase!"

Not only to buy, but also to buy quietly, the more you buy, the better.

There is still a lot of grain and salt in Xiaoliang's space button, which must be used as an exchange for buying slaves.

At this time, many orcs were already picking slave beasts. They directly opened the slave beasts' mouths to check their teeth, so as to judge their age and health status.

Xiao Liang looked at the slaves who were being manipulated by the guests, and saw that most of them looked numb and had gloomy expressions.

But there are also some slave beasts whose eyes are full of hatred. When their mouths are opened and their bodies are inspected, they will tremble with shame and anger, and their hands will clenched into fists out of patience.

However, whether they are sellers or buyers, they always focus on value, not emotion.

"Do you want to buy? We are all honest sellers. All slave beasts are guaranteed to be healthy and there will never be any dirty diseases."

"Well, the food in my hand is not very rich, take a look."

Si Nian pretended to choose left and right, and finally exchanged a small bag of fine salt for an old-looking capybara orc.

"Just him!"

"He is a man who knows his stuff. Even though he is old, he tastes more chewy than World of Warcraft."

The seller of slave beasts winked at Si Nian, thinking that he was also a gourmet with unique tastes.

Capybara, the largest herbivorous rodent in the animal world.Quiet, mild-tempered, and slow to move, they are generally the best choice for federal orphanage nurses.

But in the slave animal market, fat capybaras lacking labor can sometimes only serve as a meal on the plate of cruel buyers to satisfy their appetites.

Si Nian didn't say much, after buying the capybara orc, he took him and Xiaoliang and left directly.

It wasn't until a relatively secluded place suitable for talking that Si Nian asked the other party: "What's your name?"

"A slave beast has no name."

"Then you can call me Mushui from now on." Si Nian had to admit that he was also a bad namer.

"Will the space button work?" Si Nian asked Mushui. After all, many primitive orcs had never seen such a high-tech product.

"Yes." Mu Shui nodded.

"Well, you should go find a place to wash yourself first. The properties of this space button are average. There are some clean clothes and toiletries in it, and there is also an energy liquid. You can drink it directly to restore your physical strength temporarily. , we will talk later at the tea stall in front."

After finishing speaking, Si Nian handed the spare space button prepared by Berg to Mushui, then turned around and continued with Xiao Liang to learn more about the rhino tribe.

The bewildered capybara orc was left alone, and he stood there stupidly without moving for a long time.

Mushui has passed middle age, as a slave beast, he has no expectations for a long time, even if he is steamed by someone in the future, he feels that he can handle it calmly.

The reason why he still chooses to live with it is because he sees that some cubs who are also slave beasts are very pitiful, so he can help as much as he can.

Unexpectedly, his buyer was so big-hearted, he gave himself a name, gave him a space button, and then disappeared!
Aren't you worried about him running away?

But it's sad to think about it. After being kept in captivity for most of his life, where can Mushui go?
