Chapter 265 Slave Market
Chapter 265: Slave Market
"Number plate? What is that for?" Lin Nantian couldn't help but say curiously.
"It is used to set the code for the slave you are interested in." The mercenary explained patiently, and said, "It's your first time here. The slave trading here is different from other places. All slaves have no price. Anyone can set the code for him. The price you are willing to buy is as much as the price you want. Of course, the price you are only a slave owner knows. Once the transaction time is up, no one can set the code again. The slave owner will announce the highest price tag according to the price tag, and then you can buy the slave with the number tag."
"So that's it." Lin Nantian nodded and took out thirty magic gold coins from his arms, "Let's go and buy three number cards!"
"Good guy, sir!" The mercenary nodded and bowed with a very respectful attitude.
Holding the number "510012" in his hand, Lin Nantian walked into the slave market with the mercenaries. The crowd was extremely crowded, and a moldy and sour smell spread in the air. Lin Nantian couldn't help but wrinkle his nose.
"Why is the air so bad here!" Chu Shifeng complained.
"Haha, uncle, this first floor is the place where there are the most people and the most slaves. Of course, the smell is a bit bad. You don't know that those untouchables never take a bath. It is inevitable that there is a odor on their bodies. It will be better if they go up a few layers." The mercenary smiled apologized.
"How many layers up?" Lin Nantian said in surprise: "Are there still layers here?"
"That's right, uncle, there are five floors in the slave market here." The mercenary said with a glorious spirit: "The slave market in Linmo Town is famous in the mainland, and is no worse than the slave market in the underground black market! This first floor is an extremely ordinary slave, without specialties, weak, and often flawed. Generally, they are old, weak, sick and disabled. I suggest that you use your financial resources to select slaves on the upper floors. You get what you earn when you have a magic gold coins. In this first floor, it is difficult to buy satisfactory slaves."
"Oh, that's how special the layers above are?" Lin Nantian asked.
"Uncle, let's talk while walking, please, please." The mercenary made a gesture and led the way in front.
"The slaves on this second level are a whole level higher than the first level. There are not only strong and powerful slaves here, but also slaves with skill. They are not very old and are in their prime."
Lin Nantian shook his head: "I don't need such an ordinary slave, what I want is the slave of the Xiuyuan Master."
"Then please go to the third floor! The third floor specializes in selling slaves from the Yuan Dynasty, and they are all poor people who have destroyed their country and their families." The mercenary laughed at him.
"Aren't those slave owners afraid of the slaves who cultivated the Yuan Dynasty resisting?" Chu Shifeng said inconsolably.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that in addition to being branded as slaves on your forehead, slaves must also sign slave contracts with the slave owner and be slaves forever. Unless the slave owner is willing to release the slaves on his own initiative, these slaves will have to live a life dominated by others for the rest of their lives."
"It's sad, it's a pity! What's the point of this kind of life that is worse than death? Instead of living like an ant, it's better to die heroically and leave a good reputation in the world." Chu Shifeng shook his head, feeling very regretful.
"Uncle, you are wrong. As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die well. There is always hope and a way out when you live. Not all slaves are afraid of death. Many of them have great wisdom and perseverance, and can bend and stretch." The mercenary showed a firm look: "One of the current primordial cultivators at the mainland is born as a slave. Who said that the slaves have no chance to turn over?"
"There is also some truth. Perhaps this kind of desperate experience and no retreat in cultivation will make the slaves work harder and more diligent than others." Lin Nantian agreed: "What kind of slaves are sold on the fourth floor?"
"The ones sold on this fourth floor are extremely rare slaves. Only those who have the magic gold card above green can enter. None of the slaves there are humans, all from the seven major alien races in the seven realms forest." The mercenary said in detail.
"Oh? That's it. If you have time, go up and take a look. I have never seen a foreigner before. This time I can open my eyes." Lin Nantian showed a curious look.
"What about the fifth floor?" Chu Shifeng asked impatiently.
"This is the fifth floor! Hehe..." The mercenary smiled extremely lewdly: "Are the two old men interested in the fifth floor?"
"I'm interested, why aren't you? Let's talk about it." Lin Nantian said.
The mercenary swallowed and said, "This fifth floor is a paradise for men. Unfortunately, I have never been to it, because only those who have magic gold cards above blue can enter. I heard from other mercenaries that there are beautiful slaves everywhere in the fifth floor! They are all those daughters with devastating families, even princesses. As long as they have magic gold coins, buy one, it feels... tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's so good!"
"So that's it..." Lin Nantian nodded: "Look at the third level of the Yuanshi slave!"
Before they knew it, the three of them had already entered the third floor gate.
As the mercenaries said, after entering the third floor, there was no such unpleasant smell, and the venue was much empty, at least the three of them could move freely. The slaves were placed in rows, wearing handcuffs, sitting there expressionlessly, like goods for everyone to choose. On their chests, there were signs hanging, which clearly stated the slave's age, level of cultivation and physical fitness.
"Nan Tian, what kind of slave are you going to find?" Chu Shifeng asked curiously.
"That's all right, of course there is potential." Lin Nantian raised his lips: "What's the use of raising a waste material? Isn't it just a waste of space?"
Chu Shifeng refused to comment. Anyway, he was studying with the prince. He didn't know what Lin Nantian said about "potential". I guess he would know how he picked slaves.
"Uncle, usually those slaves with the possibility of changing into hidden professions have been purchased in advance." The mercenary seemed to see through Lin Nantian's thoughts: "The people sold here are all the four-yuan physical constitution and five-yuan physical constitution of cultivator slaves."
"Is that true?" Lin Nantian raised his lips and replied without comment.
Unlike other people who carefully observed the slaves one by one, Lin Nantian seemed to be wandering around, extremely leisurely and comfortable. He didn't even look at the slave. He picked the slave and just glanced at the Yuanli physique in front of the slave.
After skimming rows, Lin Nantian seemed to have no "potential" slaves. Among these slaves, they were basically four-yuan strength and five-yuan strength physiques, and three-yuan strength physiques were only one or two, let alone two dual-yuan strength physiques.
The mercenary looked at Lin Nantian's sudden appearance and couldn't help but feel anxious: "Uncle, it's too late to pick on you anymore. We are already late, and there is still more than half an hour left before the end of the transaction!"
"Haha, it's better to have nothing than to be too much, not to be anxious." Lin Nantian smiled indifferently, as if he was very confident.
As soon as he was talking, Lin Nantian suddenly stopped. The mercenary behind him was not careful for a moment and hit Lin Nantian's back with a "bang".
"Big, uncle, sorry, the young one didn't mean it!" The mercenary hurriedly apologized in panic, which made the God of Wealth unhappy, but he didn't have the best results.
But Lin Nantian seemed to ignore him, and didn't even look at him. He just stared at the sign on the chest of a young man, squinted his eyes and watched the introduction above carefully, over and over again, and was extremely fascinated.
Man, 25 years old, Yuanli level: Huang-level Yuan. Yuanli physique: earth Yuanli 40%, wood Yuanli 15%, water Yuanli 15%, gold Yuanli 15%, fire Yuanli 15%.
"What is the potential of this physique? Apart from the earth element, the others are so average." Chu Shifeng was puzzled: "It seems that there is no hidden profession on the mainland that is caused by this physique change, right?"
"Uncle, this kind of five elements is very useless. Although the earth element strength is slightly high, it is too difficult to practice. Look at this young man, he is still in the stage of the yellow-level Yuan master at the age of 25, and he can definitely be considered slow in his cultivation. What's more, the cultivator with the five-yuan power is famous for his weak combat power. Although this young man seems to be strong, he is a fake move!" The mercenary advised with great sincerity.
"I am also a five-yuan power cultivator. Do you want to try my combat power and isn't it that weak?" Lin Nantian stared at the mercenary with a smile, his eyes shining straight with a cold light, like a tiger.
"No, no...I don't mean that, uncle, I just said that this young man is weak, so there is no intention to slander you!" The mercenary explained in panic.
"You don't understand!" Lin Nantian shook his head with a very serious expression.
"He is a treasure!"
A simple sentence shocked three people.
"Bao?" Chu Shifeng and the mercenary looked at each other and smiled bitterly, as if they did not agree with Lin Nantian's statement.
Even the young slave who was evaluated as treasure raised his head slightly, and his face as light as slight as water changed slightly. He looked at Lin Nantian with a very confused look.
"This old man must be more favoured by five-yuan strength because he has five-yuan strength physique. Let him do it. Anyway, it's not my money." The mercenary thought to himself.
"As Nantian's eyesight, it should be impossible to read it wrong. He said that this young slave is a treasure, so it should be a treasure, right?" Chu Shifeng thought.
"How to download the code next?" Lin Nantian asked the mercenary in confusion.
"It's simple, uncle." The mercenary pointed to the instrument beside the young man, "Insert the number plate and enter the amount you want to add the code."
"In your experience, how much magic gold coins is this slave worth?" Lin Nantian asked at the mercenary.
"Well..." The mercenary hesitated: "It's about 15w demon gold coins. After all, no matter how bad he is, he is still a yellow-level Yuan master. The starting price of a Yuan master-level Yuan master slave is 10w demon gold coins. Plus, this is a young man, young and strong, and it's almost done with about 5w."
"I understand." Lin Nantian nodded slightly, picked up the instrument, and inserted the number plate.
"beep!"
A crisp sound.
"You can enter the amount, and end with the # key, uncle." The mercenary prompted.
Lin Nantian hesitated for a moment, first pressed a 1, then a 5, then pressed 5 0s in succession, and finally pressed the # key.
"One, one million and a half million? Big, old man?" The mercenary's eyes widened: "Will you press an extra 0?"
The mercenary's words scared Chu Shifeng and the young slave themselves.
Lin Nantian looked at the young slave with his eyes raised his lips and said disrespectfully: "He is worth the price."
The mercenary was cold, and he looked at Lin Nantian, and then the young man's decadent but still angular and resolute face. A creepy thought came to his mind, who had been through the world for a long time: "This, this old man won't be able to speak well..."
If Lin Nantian knew what the mercenary was thinking at the moment, he would have to cut him off.
"Okay, keep going." Lin Nantiancai, no matter what others think of him, took a step forward and continued to look for slaves who suited him.
"This old man is so strange. What standard does he choose the slaves of the Yuanshi Cultivator? I don't understand him." The mercenary looked at Lin Nantian curiously: "He doesn't want those Yuanshi Cultivators, and he doesn't want those Yuanshi Cultivators, either, but he chose such an inexplicable young slave of Five Yuanshi."
Chu Shifeng did not ask Lin Nantian. He knew that Lin Nantian would not say it because there were too many people here. Although he didn't know it, Chu Shifeng was sure that the young slave must have outstanding features. After ten years of getting along with him, he knew Lin Nantian's character very well, and he would definitely not do anything that he was not sure about.
The two followed Lin Nantian and walked around the entire third floor, but they saw Lin Nantian shook his head constantly.
"The slaves of the Yuan Cultivator here are generally a little older, too few young, and even fewer young and have potential. Some Yuan Cultivator has a certain degree of plasticity, but the Yuan Cultivator is too old and the Yuan Cultivator is too low; some are young and strong and have good physical fitness, but unfortunately the Yuan Cultivator has too many limitations. Although there will be some achievements after training, the seven realms have now opened up so big that they cannot accommodate too many ordinary qualifications of Yuan Cultivator." Lin Nantian thought to himself.
Let’s give priority to cultivating young men with excellent qualifications and strong qualities!
"Uncle, time is almost gone. Are you going to go to the fourth floor and the fifth floor to take a look?" the mercenary asked with anticipation.
"What are you going there to do? All I want is the slave of the Cultivator." Lin Nantian smiled and said, "There is the last row. After watching it, wait for the transaction to end."
"Oh." The mercenary looked disappointed and was happy.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the mercenaries couldn't help but look at the time, and it was getting closer and closer to the end of the transaction.
Lin Nantian walked calmly, not panic at all. Anyway, for him, the young slave was already an absolute surprise. Some hidden professions were unknown, but he knew about it.
Chapter completed!
