The Bohai Sea, this bad land, is almost equivalent to the inland seas of East Asia. Only one Bohai Strait is connected to the Yellow Sea.

If you, you can cross the strait by a small puppet.

Now the Jiaodong Peninsula in the northern Bohai Strait is occupied by Goguryeo, while the Shandong Peninsula in the south is the territory of Datang. Among them, Dengzhou is just on the boundary line of the Bohai Strait ..

On the wide sea surface, the waves of waves have been wavy. Today the weather on the sea is good, the wind is small, and the sun above the head exudes a warm light, which brings a warmth to this cold February day. A team of teams.

The fleet consisting of four merchant ships is driving on the sea. Looking at the direction of their driving, it should be to rush to the Dengzhou established by Gang Datang.

The wind only picked up the sea fish from the sea, scratched a arc in the air, flew to the mast of the merchant ship, and tasted fresh sea fish while enjoying the tragedy on the deck on the merchant ship.

The crew members on the merchant ship are dressed up in the Tang Dynasty, and they are all mature men. Everyone has a horizontal knife and a fierce air. It looks like an ordinary crew.

The owner of the fleet, the one on the left is a businessman with a wide heart and a well -faced face, and looked at the cargo below with a big belly, and the other was a burly one -eyed man.

But this man only wore a single dress, open with plackets, exposing the muscular pectoral muscles, and the new injury to the old scar on the chest was extremely scary.

"Brother, our quality of the goods this time is so high, it will definitely sell a large price. It is estimated that our brothers have been happy for a few months." The one -eyed big man said to the fat merchant with excited face that he would go to Dengzhou soon,

At that time, these goods were shot, and the business that they came to life would be completed.

The fat merchants heard the words of one -eyed man. But he said helplessly: "The second brother is not for his brother, how old you are, you still do n’t know if you are a family.

I don't know if it may be gone someday. If you haven't left even the roots, will your sand family break the roots? "

Don't look at the fierce look of the one -eyed big man, but the righteous brother in front of him. When he hear the other party's lesson, he reached out and grabbed his head.

Cheng Jia, but you also know that we are eating knives and meals. If you are not careful, you will be gone. I am alone. If you are gone, you will be sad.

If things go, wouldn’t that hurt someone for the rest of their lives?”

The fat merchants were also froze. He didn't expect the second brother who had always been straight, and there was such a delicate idea. I just thought that this second brother had money and ran to the brothel every day.

I can't help but squander it, it's better to find a woman to live with me.

Thinking of this. Suddenly the fat merchant's eyes brightened, patted the shoulders of the big -eyed man, and then pointed at the "cargo" in front of him: "Second brother, since you are afraid of harming our Tang women, then you might as well follow these new

Luo woman picked out a suitable one. Temporarily be a small concubine, and when she went to Dengzhou to buy a small yard to set up people, there would be a home in the future.

In addition to the crew, there were dozens of sad girls on the deck. These girls were tied into strings with ropes, sitting honestly on the deck and not daring to move around. There were also a few crew members with knives next to them.

Inspection. Although these girls were dressed in shabby clothes, they could still be vaguely identified as Silla clothing. It is obvious that these girls are all Silla people. In fact, there are only a small part on the deck, there are many in the cabin, and there are several other ships on the other ships.

The situation is similar to this one. In other words, this is a fleet of slave hunting ships.

The one-eyed man was also moved by his concern for his elder brother, but hesitated and said, "Brother, this... isn't that good. After all, these are the goods that the brothers exchanged for their lives, and everyone has a share of the money they sell.

, If I choose one…”

"Haha~, second brother, is Hui brother the kind of person who is not divided between public and private? Don't worry, the money from Silla maid is paid is also considered my big brother's wish." The fat businessman laughed, and

The burly man was naturally overjoyed when he heard this and was even more grateful to his elder brother.

The transactions of slaves in the Tang Dynasty were very common, and the most famous ones among slaves were the two types of "Kunlun slaves and Silla maids". The black slaves under Li Yan who could burn glass belonged to Kunlun slaves, while Silla maids refer to the Xin.

After professional training, the girl Luo Kai came, was well-behaved, capable and gentle, and was very popular among the upper class of the Tang Dynasty.

The prosperity of buying and selling slaves naturally attracted many people to make a living. For example, the fleet in front of them is dedicated to the Silla route. After they arrive in Silla, it is best to buy people with money. If they can't buy them.

So he simply found a place with weak defense and took the risk of going ashore to grab it. After the robbery, he immediately returned to China. Anyway, with the Tang Dynasty protecting him, he would not dare to chase him if he had the courage to lend Silla.

The fat merchants have been in this business for many years, and they have finally made a name for themselves until now. There are four merchant ships under their name, and they have hundreds of people in their hands. They are also the best in Dengzhou.

figure.

Their trip was quite smooth. When they arrived in Silla, they happened to catch up with the spring famine. There were all over Silla, so they collected people effortlessly, and the quality was good.

When they returned to Dengzhou and sold it to Yaren, they would suddenly have more than ten times the profit. Then the Yaren would sell these Silla maids to slave merchants everywhere. Only after training can they be considered real Silla maids.

At this time, their price will double again.

When the fleet reached the afternoon, Dengzhou City was already in sight. The so-called Dengzhou City was actually the county town of Wendeng County. After Dengzhou was established, Wendeng was appointed as the capital, so the original Wendeng County was also renamed Dengzhou City.

Although the original Dengzhou City was just a county town, because Dengzhou City’s strategic location is very important and the shipbuilding industry in the city is very prosperous, Dengzhou City is extremely sturdy and covers an area of ​​no land than any state capital.

It is certainly more than enough to be a state's capital.

The fleet of fat merchants slowly moved into the port outside Dengzhou City. Dengzhou City not only flourished in shipbuilding, but also one of the important ports for maritime trade. Ships from Silla, Baekje, Goguryeo and even Japan have to pass by.

Here, the port outside the city is very large in scale, with ships passing by continuously, and there are special channels for entering and leaving the port. The entire port seems busy and regular and orderly.

After the fat merchant's fleet entered the port, I found a berth and stopped. However, today's port is a bit strange. As long as his ship entered the port in the past, it would attract countless teeth.

I got on board the boat to grab the best goods. But for some reason, I didn’t see any of the flies in the past?

When the fat merchant and the burly man were doubtful, a small official on the shore suddenly walked on the shore. The fat merchants were mixed at this port for ten years.

It is his familiarity, but this person is only looking at it today.

"Hey! The merchants on the boat listen, put down the springboard, I want to go up and check the goods!" The clerk walked to the bow of the boat, raised his head and shouted to the boat. The fat merchants on the boat did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly welcomed the clerk.

Anyway, their jobs have been acquiesced by the government. Although the taxes are heavier than other goods, they are quite reasonable.

Because the boat is high and the shore is low, the little official did not see the Silla girl on the deck at first. When he got on the boat, his eyes lit up suddenly. He glanced at the fat merchant and said, "Your goods are a bit special.

,There are new regulations on it, you can wait for a while!" After the little official said that, he turned around and got off the boat without waiting for the fat merchant to react, leaving the fat merchants and the others looking at each other.

After waiting for a while, a neat sound of running came from the shore. Then a group of guards with bright armor suddenly rushed to the boat, and pointed the bow and arrow at the people on the boat. At the same time, the leader shouted loudly:

"Download your weapons for me, hold your head in your hands and squat. Those who dare to disobey will be killed!"

Faced with this sudden change, the people on the ship were at a loss at first. However, these people, including the fat merchants, were all murderers who were licking blood on the blade. Faced with this sudden change, they immediately instinctively wanted to resist.

Many of the crew members had already touched their hands on the knife handle. Although the other party was well-equipped, the number of people was not large. If they fought together, it would not be certain who would win or lose.

"Listen to this lord, put down my knife!" At this moment, the one-eyed man suddenly shouted, and his face turned red, and his forehead was constantly sweating, and he seemed very anxious.

Although the one-eyed man is just the second-in-command of the fleet, he is loyal and always rushes to the first place when he grabs people overseas. Therefore, he has a very high prestige among the crew. As soon as he hears his orders, the crew immediately instinctively

Give up resistance, untied the knife and threw it on the deck.

Although the fat businessman next to him was a little puzzled, he believed that his second brother would not harm him. After throwing down his weapon, he approached the one-eyed man and asked, "Second brother, who is the other party?"

"Brother, the other party is Qianniuwei. Don't look at the few people, but if we really fight together, it's not enough for the other party to cut a few strokes!" One-eyed man rarely showed a helpless and bitter smile. He was also in the past.

Those who hang out in the army know very well about the various military groups of the Tang Dynasty, and the Qianniu Guard, as the imperial guards of the palace, are even more familiar with them. The Qianniu Guards are all elite soldiers selected from the army to serve as the ones, and even then he was

I was lucky enough to be selected and I was only one step away from entering Qianniu Guard. Unfortunately, I was finally slapped. From this point, I can see how powerful the Qianniu Guard is?

"Qianniu Guard!" The fat businessman was also shocked, and suddenly remembered the rumor. The only explanation for the Qianniu Guard, who is the imperial guard of the palace, could appear here. The only explanation is that the person has arrived.
Chapter completed!
