Arriving at the second uncle's courtyard, Zhao Jun knocked on the door with anxiety.
Um? No one responded?
Knock again!
Benedict! Benedict! Benedict!
Still no one responded!
Just when Zhao Jun was confused, the door creaked open.
The second uncle was carrying a bird cage, and the cage contained the parrot with a mean mouth.
"Quack, the fool is coming! The fool is coming! Quack!"
Zhao Jun's head was full of black lines, but the second uncle laughed happily.
"follow me!"
After laughing, the second uncle stopped talking, gave Zhao Jun a faint order, and walked out.
Zhao Jun was about to follow, but the old man suddenly turned around, looked Zhao Jun up and down, shook his head and said, "No, you have to change your clothes first."
After saying this, he ran into the yard without waiting for Zhao Jun to ask questions. After a while, he took out a set of bunts and threw them to Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun subconsciously caught it.
Oops! What a big smell! How long has it been since you washed it?
Zhao Jun subconsciously wanted to throw it away, but the second uncle said: "If you want to learn martial arts, then you have to endure what ordinary people can't endure. You can't even endure a set of clothes. What kind of martial arts do you want to learn?"
Zhao Jun was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth for the last time, and went directly to the second uncle's small courtyard to put on this set of breakers that still smelled of sweat.
When he came out again, the original handsome young man was gone, and what appeared in front of everyone was just a handsome coolie.
Seeing this, the second uncle nodded with satisfaction.
Then Dang Xiao walked out.
Zhao Jun hurried to follow, and Wang Huaien also wanted to follow, but at this moment, a stone whizzed past Wang Huaien!
The next moment, there was only a click sound, and the stone was directly embedded in the wall behind Wang Huaien.
"You don't have to follow. Just wait here. As long as I'm watching, nothing will happen to your prince."
The second uncle's faint voice came from the front. Although Wang Huaien was scared, he still looked at Zhao Jun subconsciously. Zhao Jun's eyes flickered, and finally nodded to Wang Huaien.
Wang Huaien then stayed where he was.
The second uncle took the bird cage and Zhao Jun out of the clan mansion and headed towards Beishi in the capital.
Beishi is a very special place in Bianjing. It is a hell for the poor, but it is also a paradise for the rich.
There are all kinds of slaves here, which can satisfy all your slave slave ideas, but none of them are from the Song Dynasty.
According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, anyone who treats the people of the Song Dynasty as slaves will die!
No forgiveness!
In other words, in the Song Dynasty, as long as you have a household registration in the Song Dynasty, no one is qualified to demote you as a slave.
Otherwise, the court has the right to execute the person, and this crime cannot be forgiven.
So what happened to the slaves of those wealthy families?
This has to talk about the employment system of the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, there was already a relatively complete employment system.
When slaves from the Song Dynasty could not be used, large families who needed manpower could not only buy slaves from other countries, but also go to Yahang to hire "employees".
That’s right, hiring employees.
Just like Zhao Jun in his previous life, these employees are just working in your house to get off and off work, they are not your slaves. You must maintain a certain amount of respect for them, and you can scold them but not hit them, otherwise they can sue you.
Moreover, this kind of employment does not allow for lifetime tenure. A person can only sign for a maximum of ten years at a time. After ten years, you can negotiate with others to renew your contract.
It can be said that in the Song Dynasty, the employment system was very complete.
Of course, this is clearly stipulated in this way, but in some places where the emperor is far away, even the laws of the Song Dynasty may not be able to take into account both.
This is the helplessness of the law.
When he arrived at Bei City, Zhao Jun looked around with some curiosity at the foreigners who stuck straws in their heads. Some were selling themselves, but most of them were slave traders selling these slaves.
Along the way, there were slaves of all kinds, ugly, beautiful, thin, strong, everything you want.
It can be said that it opened Zhao Jun's eyes.
Even when he saw a pair of Persian cat twins, he almost couldn't walk. If he hadn't subconsciously touched his pockets and found them empty, Wang Huaien didn't follow him. Zhao Jun almost wanted to go up and negotiate the price with the boss.
Following the leisurely walking of the second uncle, the two of them soon arrived in front of a huge circular building. The entire building in front of them looked about the size of a two-story building, with a wooden structure throughout, like a wooden bird's nest. It is quite conspicuous in Bei City.
After arriving here, the second uncle did not hesitate. He greeted Zhao Jun and asked him to follow him in.
As soon as I entered, I heard a charming voice speaking enthusiastically.
"Hey! Mr. Zhao, you haven't been here for a long time! Why are you free to come today?"
Zhao Jun looked up and saw a plump, fat and thin beautiful woman leaning against the second uncle with a sweet smile on her face. The second uncle's whole old face smiled like a chrysanthemum.
The bird cage in his hand was handed out skillfully, and a boy immediately took it respectfully.
Immediately afterwards, I saw this old man actually touching this beautiful woman in front of everyone in the hall.
This beautiful woman actually did not refuse, but instead allowed him to move with half push.
After all, he was still a little scrupulous. The second uncle was just taking advantage of him. After flirting with the beautiful young woman for a while, the second uncle immediately hugged the young woman's graceful waist and made her close to his side. At the same time, he pointed a finger at her. Zhao Jun stayed where he was and said:
"Nuo, this is the distant grandson of my family. I'm bringing him here to see him for a long time. Are you going to entertain him today?"
The beautiful young woman's eyes lit up when she first heard about it. When she saw Zhao Jun's outfit, she frowned again and asked with some confusion: "Master Zhao, why is your little grandson dressed like this?"
The second uncle chuckled, glanced at Zhao Jun, and whispered into the beautiful young woman's ear: "This boy is disobedient at home, and his grandfather, my brother, asked me to take care of him.
so.
He has always thought that he is very skilled. Please help me get him to a low-level duel field later to train him and let him gain experience.
As long as he is not killed or maimed, it is fine.
You see, I was afraid that those people would be scrupulous and asked him to change his clothes. When those people come on stage, don't tell them that I brought this kid. Just beat him normally. "
The beautiful young woman was immediately enlightened after hearing this, but she was a little worried and said: "Mr. Zhao, even a low-level duel field is not very safe. What if something happens to the young master?"
But the second uncle patted his chest and said: "It's okay. You, Mr. Zhao, and I are here. If anything happens, I will be responsible!"
In short, you will arrange a few heavy-handed attacks for me today, so that this lawless boy will know that he has lost our protection. With his little skill, he will eat up even the dregs of others in a matter of minutes!
Seeing the second uncle's determined look, the beautiful young woman had no choice but to nod her head and go to make arrangements. The second uncle reluctantly took back his hand, still lingering over the feeling just now.
But when Zhao Jun looked at him, he coughed twice and said, "What about that? Someone will guide you later, just follow."
Zhao Jun asked with confusion, "Should I follow? Why should I follow?"
The second uncle said unintentionally: "I have found two good trainers for you to practice your skills first. You can practice hard.
Don't worry, I've already told you that they won't do anything harsh, just learn other people's fighting methods. "
Zhao Jun nodded immediately after hearing this. It turned out that he was asked to do the actual combat.
But this is indeed a way to grow yourself quickly.
But what he never expected was that the second uncle who was cheating on his grandson not only failed to make the other party pay attention to the appropriateness of his attack, but actually let the other party hit him to the end!
It wasn't until the actual fight that Zhao Jun realized that he had been tricked by this scammer!
