Chapter 48 Buying Slaves and Bargaining

After the subordinates pulled the girls away, they pulled out a large row of slave soldiers.Cruise hit the chest of the slaves with his fist, and shouted excitedly: "Look, what a strong muscle, what a tall body. Gentlemen, these slave fighters come from all over the world, including giant ax fighters from the Snow Country, Brooks There are archers from various countries; there are also heavy armored infantry from the Oman Empire, crossbowmen from the Rui Nuo Kingdom, and grassland cavalry from the West Golden Wolf Khanate. They have superb martial arts skills, and they have their own strengths. They can definitely fight ten against one. Gentlemen, what are you waiting for? Each one is only three gold coins. Don’t miss this opportunity. Don’t miss it again?”

"Cruise, you liar, your products are not as good as before, don't let us be fooled again." A middle-aged man with the same face from the Western Regions mocked, "We would rather go to buy slaves from Tiras, or Won't buy you, let you and your slave go to hell."

"This is slander, damn East, why are you against me? Are you sent by Tiras? Father God will not let you go for your behavior." Cruz gritted his teeth and looked at him. The middle-aged man East cursed, but at this time the crowd began to subside, and everyone was obviously moved by East's words.This can't work, I only have two or three days in the county, if I can't sell it, I don't have enough money to buy oriental goods.Can't help shouting anxiously: "Gentlemen, don't go, we can still discuss. My slaves are all sold for two gold coins, and there are discounts for buying more. Gentlemen, please stop your noble footsteps, please. .”

But the crowd continued to dissipate, and Cruise couldn't help but despair.

"Is it true that a slave has two gold coins?" Just then, a voice came from the audience.

Cruise followed the prestige and saw a young man with an oriental face looking at him with an indifferent expression.Some asked unsurely: "Yes, do you want to buy a slave?"

"Yes, it's me." Lin Yifan nodded. Although he was disgusted with the slave trade, he couldn't do anything.My mentality has gradually calmed down from the initial anger. After all, the world I live in is different, and modern morality cannot be used to judge.When Cruise was introducing, he became interested in people and things in the West again, so he came up with the idea of ​​buying some alien slaves.

Cruise was overjoyed, and hurried forward, and asked with a smile: "This gentleman is really discerning. The products of my Cruise firm are definitely worth the money. I don't know what kind of slave you want?"

Lin Yifan didn't know much about this, so he could only say, "Well, what kind of slaves do you have? If there are any I like, I'll buy them all."

Cruise smiled even more when he heard the words, "Ah, we have many kinds of slaves. If you don't mind the trouble, you can come to our warehouse and choose them yourself."

"Don't listen to him, sir, his slaves don't have any good products at all." East came over and stopped him, "It's better to go to the Tilas Trading Company, where there are more slaves and more varieties. All of them are top-quality goods..."

"Are you all dead people? Hurry up and get this guy out!" Cruise shouted and cursed at the left and right, grabbed Lin Yifan, and said eagerly, "Esther is a mad dog, please don't, Mr. If you care, please come with me, I promise, you will be satisfied.”

When I came to Cruise's warehouse, I saw rows and rows of cages filled with densely packed slaves, all of them scantily clad and haggard, looking at Lin Yifan and his party indifferently.

"Honorable sir, this row is the soldier slave area, this row is the female slave area, this row is the slave area, this row is..." Cruise introduced enthusiastically, but his eyes were tightly closed. Staring at Lin Yifan, carefully trying to figure out his intentions.

Finally, after the introduction, Cruise rubbed his hands and looked at Lin Yifan expectantly, "Mr. Honorable, I don't know which slave you have taken a fancy to. I will suggest it to you right away."

Standing outside the cage, Lin Yifan looked at the desperate slaves inside, feeling a little heavy. He thought he could look away, but until he came into close contact, his heart was still trembling.Compassion, pity, and anger.He really wanted to chop off the fat old man in front of him, this beast.He cursed secretly in his heart, but said on his mouth: "How many slaves do you have here?"

Cruise's eyes lit up, does this gentleman want everything. . .Not daring to think too much, he quickly replied, "Sir, we now have 160 and seven slaves, 110 and eight male slaves, and 49 female slaves. I don't know what Mr. wants..."

"I don't know if you have artisan slaves or slaves like scholars here?" Lin Yifan asked tentatively. He was very eager to get a Western artisan or scholar. Through them, he could learn about the level of craftsmanship or civilization in the West, and see if he could gain himself from it. want something.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Cruise shrugged and said regretfully, "These two kinds of people are not allowed to be slaves, they are the precious property of the nobles, once captured, they will be snapped up by the upper nobles. You know, this kind of person is very expensive, and I have no ability to buy it."

"Really?" Lin Yifan was a little disappointed, and had to gather his energy to look at the slaves here, "If you say that each slave has two gold coins, then if I buy them all, how many gold coins would it be, and how much would it be in taels of silver? ?”

Cruise looked at the guest in front of him in surprise, wishing he could hug his head and kiss him fiercely. This is simply a messenger sent by God to save him, thank you Father God!At the same time, my head began to spin rapidly, "Sir, if you buy all the slaves, you only need to pay 330 four gold coins, and I will count your 330 gold coins, which is equivalent to three thousand three hundred taels of silver. Sir, do you think?"

"It's expensive. The slaves here are male and female, old and young. If they are all equal, I will suffer." Lin Yifan frowned slightly and said dissatisfied.

"Sir, I misunderstood. The two gold coins I said for a slave were based on the average value. My warrior slave was originally sold for three gold coins." Cruise explained hastily.

"Then I can't help it, maybe I should go to that firm called Tilas, maybe his products can meet my requirements better." Lin Yifan shook his head regretfully, and was about to go out.

"Sir, please wait a moment, we can still discuss and discuss, what exactly will you want to buy my slave?" Cruise called Lin Yifan to stop, and asked through gritted teeth.

"Male slaves are given two gold coins, and female slaves are included as gifts."

"What? It's impossible." Cruise shook his head and refused. "In this case, I have no profit at all. It is absolutely impossible."

"That's a pity, I don't want these slaves anymore. Dali, let's go to Tilas Trading Company." Lin Yifan smiled slightly, and walked out without hesitation.

Just as Lin Yifan walked to the door, Cruise's angry voice came from behind him, "As you wish, sir, I will do as you say."

Only then did Lin Yifan turn around and return in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Mr. Cruise is refreshing, you have 110 or 360 male slaves, totaling 2000 taels. Considering how I take care of your business, it's cheaper, [-] taels How about a deal?"

"You, you." Cruise blushed, and he was no longer polite to him, and scolded fiercely: "Father God, you must be a very shrewd businessman. I, Cruise, have met an opponent , as you wish, 2000 taels, so be it. I have made you as a friend, and I hope that next time, I can make a deal with you."

"If I'm still here next time, I'll definitely praise you." Lin Yifan took out the Jin's sign and handed it to Cruise, "I didn't bring that much money when I went out, you can send the slaves to the Jin's business , to complete the delivery there. How?"

Cruise looked at the big gold letters written on the sign, and said in awe, "It turns out that he is a friend of the Jin family. No wonder he is so good at bargaining. I didn't lose wrongly. Don't worry, I will definitely send the slave to you tomorrow morning." Go to the house."

"In that case, let's go. Treat these slaves well, and don't let me break them."

"Don't worry, I promise to send you there in good spirits."

After sending Lin Yifan away, Cruise immediately cheered up and shouted to his subordinates: "You insects, don't hurry up and bring food to these slaves, go get water and let them wash. If you hurt me One, watch out for your dog legs."
