Chapter 42

The three of them went to the imperial slave shop near the county office. Xiao Jiang was the one who stated the requirements for the type of slaves he wanted to use. Since Ning Qing had already told him the specifications of the slaves she wanted, the broker, upon learning of the client's requirements, led the three of them inside to select slaves for use.

Ning Qing looked at the slaves in the cage with pity. She didn't think that the trading of people these days would be so cruel. Some still had scars from being punished by the government before being sold as royal slaves. No one here thought of feeling sorry for them or finding a doctor for them. They only gave them one meal a day. Otherwise, how could these people be as skinny as she saw? It was just that she couldn't save everyone. She could only tell her father to help choose three or four people.
