The dishes in this restaurant are quite exquisite, and they are all authentic Beijing dishes.

Among the four dishes, the most expensive dish is braised shark fin.

Shark fin is one of the eight seafood delicacies and a famous delicacy.

The wings that are shaped like vermicelli are braised yellow and have a bright and apricot yellow color, deeply attracting the diners' eyes and arousing their appetites.

Li Luotang picked up a chopstick and ate it. The winged meat was stewed so soft, soft and smooth, with an extremely mellow taste.

"Sea fish, sand, jade skin, cut into pieces, golden ginger... Finally, it's a rice with sunflower, so the taste is not bad." The table next to it obviously ordered braised shark fins, and it tasted delicious, and it was so exciting.

After the meal, the master and servant checked out and left the restaurant.

I was carrying a big bag in my hand and was about to go back to the inn, but I didn't want to hear passersby say, "The market is open, and I heard that there are beauties selling them."

"If you have a beauty, you don't have any money to buy it. What's there to go?"

"I can't afford it, it's good to enjoy the eye."

"They are all criminals, and the prices are very cheap."

"No matter how cheap the price is, it is useless to buy it. If the poor have to work, they have to wear cloth clothes and can't wear silk and satin."

"A monkey is wearing tiger skin, but it is still a monkey, and he cannot become a tiger."

A burst of laughter.

The man who wanted to go there was a good time and said stubbornly: "Don't look down on others. I am just poor for a while and will surely make a fortune in the future and make slaves call maids to be masters."

"Yes, yes, you can travel in the eight-carriage sedan in the future." The person next to him responded perfunctorily.

"I just don't know, this will be a long time later."

It caused another burst of laughter.

The man who was exaggeratingly flushed with anger and cursed: "You guys who look down on others, I don't want to talk to you too much."

After saying that, he strode away.

At this time someone said, "Why do you want to squeeze him?"

"Oh, old fool, everyone else has left, what good people are you here to be?"

"If you sell it well, you can sell it in front of others."

"You guys...Oh yo..."

"Mingcui, let's go to the people's market, too." Li Luotang no longer listened to the gossip of these people in the market.

A market refers to a market, a place where goods are bought and sold, but the market here refers to a market that specializes in selling people.

This time, the market opened will sell the families and slaves of several officials involved in the forced palace.

On the contrary, he was the first to be punished by King Yu. He was only imprisoned in the royal palace. Although he was demoted to a commoner, he was still in his own palace and had some freedom. He probably had no worries about food and clothing.

Under Mingcui's leadership, the two soon arrived at the people's market.

There are not many people coming to the market to buy sin slaves, most of whom are watching the fun.

"Master, that fat man over there is the chief supervisor of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Mingcui whispered.

Li Luotang nodded slightly.

Mingcui found the managers of several noble families in the crowd, pointed out them one by one, and told Li Luotang.

"Bang bang bang bang" sounded, and someone shouted, "Here's here."

The yamen runners escorted a group of dusty people to the high platform in front.

Among these people are men and women, old and young.

Young men and beautiful women are more expensive, while old men and women sell them quite cheaply.

"These are thirty cents a day, who wants to buy them?" Renyazi pointed at the old men and women and asked loudly.

It is said that it is an old man or an old woman, but in fact they are only in their early forties and less than fifty years old.

Renyazi shouted three times in a row before someone responded: "I'll buy these two."

I picked up the choice, and I sold out a few old men and women.

Next are eight or nine-year-old boys and little girls. They are young and can be trained, fifty-months per person.

"This girl looks good, I want it, mom." A charming woman pointed at a pretty little girl and said.

The woman is full of dust and smells of dust. What is her origin? It goes without saying.

"Mingcui, go and buy those girls." Li Luotang gave Mingcui a golden leaf.

As for how to buy these girls and place them, I haven't decided yet, but I can't watch them enter the yard.

Mingcui obediently went up to buy people. If many people liked each other, they would have to bid.

Six girls, Mingcui spent a penny to buy them.

He made the madam so angry that she stared at her, "Little girl movie, where did you come from?"

"You can't afford to offend me." Mingcui said coldly.

The boy and girl sold them, and then some ordinary-looking women and thin men.

"These are eighty-months per person." Renyazi shouted.

These people used to be slaves, but now they have a lower status and have become sin slaves who cannot be redeemed.

Even so, their mental outlook is better than those former masters who have changed from wealthy clothes and ladies to sin slaves due to sudden changes in their families.

When these people sell them out, they want to sell those young men and ladies who are either frightened or desperate.

Li Luotang saw a familiar person, "Zhou Lianxiang."

Among the group of people, one was Zhou Lianxiang, who was arrogant and arrogant on the street, who rode a horse and whipped people on the street.

Now she was standing on the platform, dirty and haggard, and no longer as coquettish as she was on the same day.

"Master, do you want to buy her?" Mingcui asked in a low voice.

Li Luotang shook his head slowly. Zhou Lianxiang enjoyed the wealth and glory of the Zhou family, and should bear the miserable consequences of the Zhou family's defeat and backwardness.

What's more, how to place her if you buy her?

"According to the law, shouldn't the family members of the crime be sent to the church or exiled thousands of miles? How could they be brought to the market for sale?" Li Luotang asked in confusion.

"Only those with excellent looks will be sent to the churchyard, and those with a little serious crime will be exiled for thousands of miles." Mingcui explained.

Li Luotang didn't understand these things very well, and he was not interested in delving into them.

The head of the Minister of Revenue Office spent three cents of silver to buy Zhou Lianxiang.

Mingcui said: "Shangshu Qi and Lord Zhou have disagreements. Miss Qi and Miss Zhou have made a big fuss on the street to compete for gold hairpins."

Li Luotang raised his eyebrows. Miss Qi and Zhou Lianxiang had an old grudge. If someone bought Zhou Lianxiang back, wouldn’t it be that he wanted to torture Zhou Lianxiang?

But this matter has nothing to do with her, and she can't care about Miss Qi, so just listen.

The man had bought it, Mingcui went to get the contract for the sale and brought the six little girls over, "Master."

The six little girls saluted and shouted timidly: "Master."

Li Luotang looked at the six people and had a headache. She saved them from water and fire, but she fell into "water and fire".

She could not take them back to Zhongye Villa after a long journey.

How to place them?

"Master, there is a shortage of people in the village." Mingcui reminded understandingly.

"Take them to see your son and ask your son to resettle them. Thank you for your son for me." Li Luotang pushed the man to Gong Jiuxian, feeling relieved.

"Yes, master." Mingcui left with six girls.
