Chapter 527 The General Was Rescued (2)
Xue Asi looked at his friend Lan Ya helplessly, shook his head and said, "Aya, I really don't plan to buy a male slave. I think I am free now, which is good."
However, Lan Ya disagreed with her idea and excitedly pulled her sleeve and said coquettishly: "Okay, okay, Sister Asi, just go and have a look! Maybe you will find something you like!
This time there are really some really good stuff. I heard from my mother that they came from Xia Country, and it seems that some people there can read.
I know you don't like those vulgar people, but find someone who can read and write and help you manage the medicine house!"
Upon hearing that there was such a person this time, Xue Asi had some ideas. He nodded and followed her to choose a male slave.
Speaking of Lan Ya's family, they had a rather tortuous experience.
It turns out that Lan Ya's mother, Lan Sangning, was once a noble of the Yu Kingdom, but later for some reason she angered the emperor of the Yu Kingdom.
Therefore, the entire Lan family had to flee in a hurry. Although they were not hunted down by the Yu people along the way, the journey was not easy.
When the Lan family finally arrived in Jicheng, they found that almost all the male members of the family had been lost or killed.
Faced with such a predicament, the head of the Lan family at the time had no other choice but to let his daughter, Lan Ya's grandmother, marry into the family to continue the family line.
Since then, this custom of the Lan family has continued.
Lan Ya's father was also married into the family by her mother Lan Sangning, but I heard that the man disappeared not long after Lan Ya was born.
But there are many rumors that Lan Sangning killed her husband so that she could find a young man.
This is not entirely without basis.
After all, in order to make a living, the Lan family thought of using the money they carried with them and their loyal guards to engage in the slave trade.
At first, this business seemed to be a “no-cost business” that would never lose money.
It’s because the Lan family has extensive connections and has “relatives and friends” in both the Yu and Xia countries.
The head of the Lan family "sent" those people in Jicheng who were living in poverty and had nowhere else to go to certain wealthy families to serve as slaves.
In this way, the Lan family could get the money from these people selling their bodies, and those poor people could also get a full meal and barely survive.
Although mixed-race people are discriminated against in both Yu Country and Xia Country, they are really beautiful and have a good figure.
If they were common people, those hypocritical rich people might keep their distance from them.
But this one was very popular as a slave.
However, as the saying goes, if you walk by the river, you will get your feet wet. As we do more and more of this kind of thing, one or two unexpected situations are bound to occur occasionally.
Gradually, the news that the Lan family had received a lot of "money from selling bodies" spread.
Fortunately, the Lan family had many guards, so no one dared to touch them.
But gradually the capital was raised, and after the money was in place, those people stopped making trouble.
The business is expanding, and we sell mixed-race people, Xia people, Yu people, and Lan people!
When Lan Ya and Xue Asi arrived at the slave farm together, they saw several tall men escorting a group of ragged people.
One of the sturdy boys was particularly eye-catching.
Although he was disheveled, his eyes revealed stubbornness. He looked young, but there was murderous intent in his strength.
It seems that he wants to scare away those who want to buy him.
But it was unnecessary for him to do so because no one offered to buy him.
"This person seems to be seriously injured. It was a gift from someone else to my mother." Lan Ya saw Xue Asi staring at the person on the stage, so she leaned over to her ear and said, "If you like this, I'll ask my mother to take the person down. It can't be sold anyway.
Go pick another one, and this one will be given to you as a gift."
"No, I just want to find someone to work for me. But I'm afraid I'll have to spend a lot of money on medicine, which is not cost-effective!" Xue Asi smiled and shook his head, looking at the other slaves on the stage.
"Sister Asi is right." Lan Ya agreed.
The young man, on the other hand, should have good hearing. He should have heard the conversation between the two sisters. He looked at Xue Asi with a hint of expectation.
Although the faces were completely different, the voices were very similar, which fulfilled the boy's wish.
Xue Asi, however, didn't pay any attention to him at all. He even pointed at a Yu country man not far from the young man and said, "This man is tall and strong. He should be able to do some physical work."
Perhaps he didn't expect that even after he restrained his gaze, Xue Asi would still despise him. In order to attract the other party's attention, the boy deliberately moved closer to the Yu man.
"Pfft!" Lan Ya laughed when she saw this. "This guy has been so arrogant all this time. I didn't expect that he would be able to please others one day. I think he has a crush on you."
Xue Asi clenched her hands into fists under her sleeves, but the expression on her face did not change at all.
