The young lady from a 21st-century wine-making family accidentally died after drinking her own wine and transmigrated into the body of a foolish wife in ancient times.
Upon waking, she unexpe...
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you're interested, come closer and take a look. We can get you whatever you want!"
"How expensive is the girl? Is she a virgin?"
"Look at what you're saying. A girl who is still a virgin is even more expensive, at least 1,000 taels of silver."
If she's not a virgin, it'll cost at least 100 taels of silver!
"We're just passing through today and leaving tomorrow. If you're interested, feel free to come closer and take a look!"
"Your price is way too expensive! I can't even afford to buy a wife, I might as well marry one..."
"There's nothing we can do, we're just passing through. If you don't want it, someone else will!"
After finishing their meal, the people were rubbing their weapons together, their eyes sharp, glancing at the crowd every now and then.
Most people were there asking questions and didn't go up to look. Instead, Luo Yunhe squeezed through the crowd and looked around the cages.
As soon as he appeared, the people around him stood up warily, holding knives and staring straight at Luo Yunhe.
It's as if Luo Yunhe didn't come to buy people, but rather to steal them.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. I'm just here to take a look, I'm not trying to take anyone from you!" After noticing their wariness, Luo Yunhe smiled slightly at them and then turned her gaze to the cages.
There were seven or eight cages, each containing three or four people, but most of them were men, with only a few women.
His approach drew the cold, unwavering gazes of those inside the cages.
Luo Yunhe looked at their cold gazes and remained silent for a long time, but still mustered up the courage to look over.
He could clearly sense the murderous intent in their eyes.
It seems they have been abused for a long time, so they are wary of everyone.
Luo Yunhe's gaze swept over them one by one, observing them very carefully.
"You, come here!" Luo Yunhe pointed to the person sitting to the side who was still eating casually.
Everyone else was on high alert, but that one person sat there eating casually, clearly the leader of the group.
"Little girl, are you calling me?"
A wicked smile played on the man's lips as he turned to look at Luo Yunhe with a half-smile.
"That's right!"
This surprised the man, who put down what he was holding and came to his side.
"Young lady, are you trying to buy someone?"
"Well, you're the leader among them, so you should know these people better. I'd like some people who know kung fu, male or female, please introduce some to me!"
The man's expression stiffened upon hearing Luo Yunhe's words, his face showing disbelief.
How did you figure that out?
"What kind of person sits there carefree and continues eating when everyone else is on guard?"
Luo Yunhe's simple sentence made the man pause for a moment, but he quickly smiled and began to explain his group to Luo Yunhe.
"Those who know kung fu, the woman in the third cage, the fifth cage, and the woman in the first cage all know kung fu."
But you'd need to know martial arts. Could you control them? If you buy them and they run away because you can't subdue them, that's none of our business.”
"Don't worry, didn't you say that all of you are slaves? Since you are slaves, your status as slaves is in my hands, so it's no use for them no matter where they run off to."
"Following me is better than being arrested and killed by the authorities, isn't it?"
"That's true! But why would you buy someone who knows martial arts?"
"Watch the shop!"
"Why not just look at ordinary workers?"
"Stop talking nonsense and give me a detailed introduction to their information!"
The man hadn't expected the young girl in front of him to be so quick-witted; he had only said a few extra words, and he was already getting a little impatient.
"Fine, fine, you're paying, so whatever you say goes..."
"They were guards from a certain Moon Manor. Because that manor did some bad things, the entire manor was wiped out, leaving only these guards, all of whom were enslaved."
It was originally intended for the border; you can have it if you want!
"These few were extremely vicious bandits. All they did was kill people. This time they offended some powerful figures and were captured."
Therefore, they were also enslaved by the imperial court and had nowhere to hide.
"Did you see who that woman was? She's incredibly ruthless. I heard she's the leader of some mountain stronghold who took a fancy to a young man and forcibly brought him back to the stronghold."
He never expected that the young man would collude with others to destroy his mountain stronghold. So he ruthlessly killed the young man and all his accomplices.
This incident caused quite a stir, so after a full-scale capture, he was enslaved. However, he remained extremely ferocious.
"These are the people you want to get back together with; the others are all too weak and vulnerable..."
After listening to their explanation, Luo Yunhe carefully examined them and asked again, "Where are you going to sell these people?"
"Buy if you can, otherwise send them to the border mines. After all, they're short of manpower there too, and you can get a good price for them!"
Luo Yunhe remained silent.
Although he had never been to a mine, he knew that once he entered a mine, it would be a living hell, with endless work and never enough to eat.
They even have to work according to the seasons all year round.
Some people won't even last a year or two before they die there.
"I want all the people you just mentioned. And that little girl too!"
In fact, Luo Yunhe took a liking to the little maid at first glance when he got close. Although she was not very old, she looked to be only about 10 years old.
But those big, watery eyes looked at him with hope, clearly hoping that he would buy her too.
"So many. Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
Seeing his decision, the man went over and gathered his men together. After saying something, the men would occasionally glance at Luo Yunhe and then look into the cage before nodding in agreement.
After they finished discussing, they went to the cage, opened it, and dragged out all the people Luo Yunhe wanted, their actions extremely rough.
However, those who didn't cooperate were whipped twice, and those people obediently followed. They came out, but their eyes were still fierce, like murderous glares.
