C1461 Trade Market
Qin Yunyi and the others stayed in this tavern for an entire night. This kind of tavern usually stayed up all night, and only closed during the day.
Because those who had the ability to spend money in this kind of tavern would basically only have leisure time at night.
And in the apocalyptic era, as the human body evolves stronger and stronger, as well as some research and development of medicine, the human body's need for sleep became less and less.
Objectively speaking, this kind of small tavern's business was quite good.
In fact, there were some physical services in the tavern that would be carried out in specialized rooms. The women in charge of the services could be considered top quality, but compared to alcohol services, this kind of service was much cheaper.
Because in this era, the most worthless, cheapest, and easiest way to obtain a woman's physical body was precisely the opposite of the pre-Great Calamity war.
For the entire night, Qin Yunyi had been communicating with Pierre. Pierre was indeed a person who specialized in information trading. He knew quite a lot about the matters in Free City.
Most importantly, there were a lot of rumors. Although these rumors were often not true, they were very valuable to Qin Yunyi.
When there was no wind, there would not be waves. Behind any rumors, one could often find out some essential things. As long as one could pull silk out of a cocoon, they would be able to see the true important news.
Coincidentally, due to the existence of the Qilin, this incomparably difficult screening and analysis process was the least difficult segment for Qin Yunyi.
They chatted for an entire night. By the morning of the next day, the completely dark sky began to turn gray. Qin Yunyi threw the grade nine blood serum to Pierre as remuneration for the night.
Pierre naturally expressed his thanks happily. Some of the customers who had yet to leave also looked at Pierre with jealous expressions. A few of them had a faint trace of ruthlessness flashing across their eyes.
Qin Yunyi noticed this but didn't say anything. This Pierre was able to stay here for so long, so he naturally had some means to protect himself.
If it was so easy to be robbed, he wouldn't be able to live until now.
Qin Yunyi clapped his hands. During the night, the four of them had eaten a lot and drank a lot. It was finally daytime, and Qin Yunyi really wanted to go to the trade market to take a look.
According to what Pierre said, the people of the other three major companies had a very high status in the Freedom City. They bullied the local residents of the Free City. However, the people of the three major companies seemed to have a very good relationship with the city lord, which made the local residents of the Free City angry but not dare to say anything.
This made Qin Yunyi a little unhappy.
After bringing Qin Yi and the other two out of the pub, the fat boss of the pub sent them to the entrance of the pub in a flattering manner. He kept smiling and bowing until Qin Yunyi and the other three disappeared from his line of sight. Only then did he stand up.
"Carter. "
The owner of the tavern called out, and the waiter hurriedly ran over.
"Boss, what are your orders?"
"Get ready. We'll close the store for one day today, and we'll be closing for the day. " As the owner spoke, he subconsciously touched the healing medicine in his arms. In a while, he was going to pay a visit to Captain Yuchi! With this medicine, the fat boss believed that he would be able to obtain sufficient benefits from the captain of the Free City's security team, Yuchi Jingde!
. . .
. . .
The trade market that Pierre mentioned was located in the western region of Free City, and it covered a very large area.
Qin Yunyi had originally thought that the trade market would be as chaotic as the agricultural markets before the Great Calamity, and there would be stalls all over the place. However, he had never imagined that when he really arrived at the place, he would discover that it was actually very orderly.
The entire market was composed of three main roads and dozens of auxiliary roads.
The buildings on both sides of the road looked much cleaner and more grand compared to the ordinary buildings used to live in Free City.
Just by looking at the appearance of those buildings, one could easily tell that they were all newly built in the past two years, and their overall performance was closer to the pedestrian streets of the large cities before the Great Calamity.
The doors of each door were wide open, and the majority of the people who came to Free City every day were basically here.
Pierre was right about the plaque on top of the door. There were indeed trades and even slave trades. A bunch of men and women were standing at the entrance of the shop, their necks, wrists, and ankles tied up by ropes.0
A brawny man held a whip and shouted with all his might, continuously promoting with the pedestrians passing by.
Qin Yunyi frowned, and Qin Yi understood what he meant. He walked forward and asked the brawny man with the whip, "Friend, where did you get these slaves? Are you safe?"
The man with the whip saw that he had been shouting for a long time. Finally, someone came up to him and asked. He looked at Qin Yi and said with a smile, "The owner is a foreigner, right? This is your first time coming to our Free City?"
"Is it very obvious?" Qin Yi looked at himself with doubt.
"Hehe, it can't be said to be obvious. It's just that the boss's question is obviously only asked by outsiders. Rest assured, boss. The source of these slaves is absolutely safe. Our Free City's City Lord is the biggest backer of the slave trade. With the City Lord looking after us, how could there be any problems? "
The strong man holding the whip reached out his hand and patted the body of a male slave beside him and said with a smile.
"Then. . . Where did these slaves come from? Can you promise to be obedient? If I buy them back, I won't think of escaping anymore, right? " Qin Yi continued to ask.
"Hehe, don't worry about that. We have been doing this business for more than a year and I guarantee that there won't be any problems. Just look at the condition of these slaves' bodies. If you look closely, they will at least be able to live for another ten years. "
As he spoke, the brawny man holding the whip looked around again. Then he moved closer to Qin Yi's ear and whispered, "You don't have to worry about obedient questions. Since we can do this slave trade, we naturally have our ways. These slaves are all poisoned. They need to take the corresponding antidote once a month, or else their entire body will fester and die. As long as you buy slaves from us, Each of us will give you three years worth of antidote. As for three years later, if you are very satisfied with the slaves. . . If you don't want the slave to die, you can come to us to buy the antidote. Of course, The price is absolutely fair. "
"From what you're saying. . . These people aren't willing to become slaves? "
Qin Yunyi, who was listening for a while, finally couldn't help but interrupt and ask.
"Volunteer?" The strong man with the whip turned his head to look at Qin Yunyi and sneered, "Who would really be willing to be a slave? Especially these beautiful girls. Boss, take a closer look. They only need to go out and sell meat. Guaranteeing their own lives will definitely not be a problem. But here, as long as you pay a small fee, You can take them home, and you can play with them however you want. Even if you play them to death, it doesn't matter. "
"In the company regulations of Atville, there should be a prohibition on forcing others, right?"
Qin Yunyi asked with a frown.
"Hehe, these things. . . You shouldn't be worrying about them. How about it? Should I buy it or not? If you don't want to buy it, then don't stand here and delay my business. "
The man with the whip noticed something strange, and the expression on his face became cold.
Qin Yunyi frowned and thought for a while. He pointed at the most beautiful girl among the slaves and said, "Buy it. Let her do it. "
