Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 748, Slave Market

"Tsk tsk, Erhu, it's really lively."

Liu Jin looked at the bustling streets of Crescent City. There were many pedestrians on the streets, and there were not only Ming people, but also Japanese, Koreans, businessmen from various countries in Southeast Asia, and even businessmen from the Middle East and Persia.

All kinds of accents gather together, and all kinds of clothes gather together, making people feel like they are in a museum of civilized races.

The expressions of Daming people are generally more arrogant, even the waiters in restaurants and teahouses are the same.

Daming was extremely powerful, and fought in all directions one after another, especially here in Nanyang, sweeping all the countries in Nanyang, let everyone know how powerful and terrifying Daming is, and naturally, the waists of Daming people became straighter.

In addition, for a long time, in the concept of Daming people, everything is good for Ming Dynasty, and all people outside of Ming Dynasty are barbarians, backward and not educated barbarians, so they naturally dismiss the foreigners here in Crescent Moon City, with a demeanor arrogant.

In addition to the Ming people, the Japanese and Koreans also have their nostrils upturned.

Following the signing of the Daming vassal state agreement between Wa and North Korea, they became the vassal state of Ming. According to the agreement, the people of North Korea and Wa must learn Chinese characters, speak the official dialect of Ming Dynasty, and they can freely travel to and from various places in Ming Dynasty.

In addition, they have always been deeply influenced by Chinese civilization, claiming to be the descendants of Chinese civilization, and there is no difference in appearance from Daming people.

So these Koreans and Japanese also naturally think that they are superior to other foreigners. They are as noble as the Ming people, and their nostrils are naturally raised.

Only when meeting Daming people, he immediately put on a smile, nodded and bowed.

In addition, the people of Lusong also have their nostrils upturned, and they are also a vassal state of Ming Dynasty. Now the people of Lusong are trying their best to learn Chinese characters and Mandarin of Ming Dynasty. Hanfu.

Liu Jin has already seen that Luzon people who seem to be wearing Hanfu and say such clumsy shouting, even though they feel inferior when facing Ming people, but when facing Siamese, Sulu people, Persians, etc. Another scene.

As for those businessmen from various countries in Southeast Asia, they are all cautious.

Daming is too strong!

From north to south, and then from west to east, the army of the Ming Dynasty attacked the entire Nanyang, Annan, Champa, Siam, Malacca, Jinzhou, Java, and Boni.

Annan, who has always liked to dance, was wiped out, Siam was beaten all over the ground, half of Malacca was occupied, and several countries on Jinzhou were beaten to cede territory and pay compensation.

Java, which dared to loot the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty and kill the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, was almost wiped out by Liu Jin. Several countries on Java were wiped out, and a large number of people were sold as slaves to plantations in Southeast Asia. .

The several countries on Bonizhou were also all plowed by Liu Jin, and they ceded land and paid compensation one after another, and each of them became honest.

The entire Nanyang countries were conquered by the powerful force of Ming Dynasty, and they all became honest.

In the past, these Southeast Asian countries still imposed heavy taxes on Ming merchant ships, and their merchants dared to deceive and bully Ming merchants. Now, who would dare to offend the Ming people?
If you come to Daming to do business, you should be more honest, for fear of offending the people of Daming and then being attacked by Daming.

As for those businessmen from the Middle East and Persia, they were all extremely honest. They had already heard about the power of Daming when they came here, and their influence on Ceylon Island was taken away by the Western Union Company, which let them know that Daming People seem to be gentle and elegant, and they are easy to talk to, but when they actually start their hands, they will definitely make you want to cry.

"Brother Jin, there is a slave market over there, do you want to go and have a look together?"

Erhu also looked around, and soon saw a place, his eyes lit up slightly and said.

"Take it away, I just want to visit the slave market in Nanyang."

Liu Jin nodded after thinking about it, and walked towards the slave market.

The slave issue is a big issue, and Liu Jin naturally needs to understand it first, so that he can formulate better policies.

The slave market here is very lively.

It is said to be a market, but it is actually a very large open space. Many people gather here to watch the excitement, buy and sell slaves, and so on.

Slave merchants occupy a place to trade slaves. Because the demand for slaves is very strong, many slaves never come to this market at all, and they have been booked out in advance.

The competition for the slaves living here is also very fierce, and they are all bought by bidding.

Slave merchants will gather a lot of people here and there. Slave merchants will bid for slaves one by one, and the one with the highest price will get it.

"The following slave is a slave captured by the Western Union Company from Ceylon Island in the Western Ocean. You see, this slave is tall, strong, and very young. He is definitely a good hand when he buys it back to work."

The slave trader Zhang Qu pointed to the newly drawn strong slave and shouted very loudly.

"I am not a slave~ I am not a slave~ I am a Persian, I am a Persian~"

As for the slave, his hair and beard were shaved off, revealing blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and the word slave branded on the left chest of his shirtless upper body.

Seeing that he was about to be auctioned off, he couldn't help shouting loudly. He was a Middle Eastern businessman who settled here on Ceylon Island. Who knew that the Ming people swept across Ceylon Island, captured them all, and sold them here as slaves.

It's just that no one could understand what he said, and he was yelling, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the slave trader, and soon he slapped him hard.

Buyers want slaves who work hard, not yelling, restless slaves.

Under Zhang Qu's violent twitch, the slave finally stood obediently, and his eyes became dull.

"It turned out to be a rare white slave, he should be from the Middle East~"

"Although he is strong and strong, he seems to be full of ambitions. It is easy to cause accidents when he buys it back."

"Yes, yes, there was an accident in the old Li's plantation last time. The slaves rebelled. I heard that it was also caused by the white slaves."

"Well, I can't buy it. Those dwarves and black slaves are better."

The many buyers next to it saw it, and immediately talked about it, shaking their heads constantly.

"Thirty taels of silver to start a family, do you want anything?"

When Zhang Qu heard this, he became anxious immediately. He bought this slave for twenty taels of silver. If no one wanted it, wouldn't he be at a loss?

"Old Zhang, you slave is full of wildness, you should train it well when you go back, otherwise, who would dare to buy it back?"

Someone who knew Zhang Qu also said it bluntly.

"Don't worry, what can happen if you wear foot cuffs and bracelets?"

"Look, everyone, how strong it is, it must be very powerful. It must be good to buy it back and work."

When Zhang Qu heard it, he also started talking again and again.

"Don't, don't~ I don't even want to give it to me for nothing."

Everyone shook their heads. Buying slaves is to go back to work, not to buy unstable explosives.

"Damn slave~"

Seeing that no one wanted it, Zhang Qu couldn't help but picked up the whip and gave the slave another savage slap.

Soon another slave stood up. This was a Sinhala from Ceylon Island. He was dark-skinned, short in stature, and a low-caste person, so they were all very docile. They didn't seem to care about his slave status. Too much resistance.

"The starting price is thirty taels of silver~"

Zhang Qu shouted.

"Thirty-two taels~"

"Thirty three two~"

"Thirty-five taels~"

As soon as the words fell, people bid one after another. These low-caste Sinhalese on Ceylon Island are very good slaves. They work hard and rarely cause trouble, so everyone likes them very much. The competition is relatively high. fierce.

Soon the price reached a high price of more than forty taels of silver, and it was finally bought by a plantation owner.

"Interesting, it's the same as the slave trade I saw on TV before time travel."

Liu Jin watched the slave trade with great interest, and some western movies he had watched before crossing appeared in his mind, but the slaves were bought and sold in the movies, and there are many kinds of slaves bought and sold here.

There are indigenous slaves from Java, Siam, Jinzhou, Boni, some were captured by Liu Jin's army, but now more people from within these countries are capturing slaves for sale.

A slave is worth dozens of taels of silver, which also gave birth to many slave traders and slave hunting teams. In these countries in Southeast Asia, some people specialize in capturing slaves and selling them to slave traders in Ming Dynasty, forming an industrial chain.

There are also slaves from the Western Ceylon Island. The Western Union Company swept across the Ceylon Island and sold the Middle Easterners, Persians, Sinhalese, and Tamils ​​on the island here on a large scale, which also increased a lot of white slaves.

"Oh~oh~"

At this time, there was a burst of cheers. When Liu Jin heard it, he immediately looked over. It turned out that in the middle of the slave market, there were slave traders auctioning female slaves.

These slaves are all Middle Easterners, Persians and high-caste Sinhalese from the island of Ceylon. They have white skin and plump figures. These slave traders also stripped them naked in order to sell more money. Immediately It also attracted a lot of eyes and cheers.

Ming people like white and regard white as beauty, so these fair-skinned slaves are the most expensive slaves in the slave market. Their treatment is much, much better than other slaves, and the price is also very high.

"Everyone, everyone, this is the latest top-level white slave~ Everyone has seen the goods."

"This fair skin, this figure, and this butt...hehe, I will be blessed if you buy it back, and keep you drunk and dreamy."

A slave trader pulled a slave out and introduced it to everyone with a smile on his face.

　Will this breed some slave traders who go to the Middle East and Persia to sell slaves?
