"Don't even think about cultivating slaves in the middle stage of Lingtai. However, there are a few female cultivators with water spirits there. They are not too expensive. You can buy one to keep your bed warm at night. Hehe..."
"Second brother, let's go take a look after dinner, and you can just buy one!"
"Okay, don't be a shabby second brother. It's not like you don't know the temper of your second sister-in-law. Don't even think about buying one and taking it back. It's not enough to talk about it. I'd better save it."
"Hey, second brother, you are a model of a good man."
"Okay, let's have a drink."
"It's actually the first time I've heard about this cultivator who is still in the middle stage of Lingtai. If I hadn't been here, I really wouldn't have known about this." Zhou Yang was secretly surprised when he heard this.
It is common for Kaiyuan cultivators to be slaves, and there are also female cultivators who sell themselves in brothels, but slaves in the middle stage of Lingtai are really unheard of.
Zhou Yang drank flower wine on the painting boat in Tu Yancheng. He heard that the female cultivators there cost hundreds of spiritual stones a night. If you buy a female cultivator as a slave, it will cost several thousand!
"Have you heard that the Three Saints Sect and the Xuanfu Sect don't have enough mining slaves, and it's expensive to buy cultivators. The two sects actually secretly kidnap low-level cultivators to serve as mining slaves. Those casual cultivators with no background and power are in bad luck! I heard that the two factions have arrested a lot of people outside the city recently. They are really nothing." There was also discussion at other tables.
"Keep your voice down, you are seeking death!" A cultivator shouted in a low voice.
The cultivator who had spoken before quickly shut up, not daring to curse any more.
Although the voice was small, Zhou Yang heard it clearly. The disciples of the Three Saints Sect whom he met yesterday must have gone to the spiritual field to do things secretly.
Most cultivators who rent spiritual fields have little power and no deep background, so they must be the first choice targets of the two factions.
"No, I have to go back and see Tie Hu and Mo Chenglong and his son. Don't be kidnapped by the two factions." Thinking of this, Zhou Yang no longer wanted to drink. After paying the bill, he hurried out of the restaurant.
The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon. Once exposed to the sunshine, his mind became clearer and his feet slowed down.
"In broad daylight, the two factions would not dare to blatantly kidnap people. Besides, they are on the territory of Cangshou Palace, so they have to restrain themselves." Zhou Yang thought for a while, and did not return to Lingtian immediately, but prepared to go back again. Just turn around and get back before dark.
He exited the shop street and turned right to another avenue.
"What does Fairy Pavilion do?" At the intersection of the two streets, there is a large shop with five facades. There is a giant plaque under the eaves of the three-story building with three big characters on it: "Fairy Pavilion".
Zhou Yang didn't understand what it meant, but he heard the sound of a piano coming from inside, and there seemed to be a woman's teasing laughter.
Only then did he understand that this place should be a brothel.
The name Fairy Pavilion is really elegant, but who can be a prostitute with a female nun who looks like a fairy?
In this clear day, few people came to visit the brothel. There were only a few cars and horses in front of the brothel, and there was not even a woman who usually solicited customers at the door.
Zhou Yang just glanced at it and left without stopping.
After walking for about four or five miles, the view ahead was wide, and a medium-sized square appeared in front of us. The ground of the square is paved with bluestone, surrounded by large and small shops, and there are not many people.
There is a wooden high platform in the middle of the square, which seems to be temporarily built. There is an awning on the stage, and there are many shadows moving vaguely under the awning. There were a few cultivators in the audience pointing and pointing.
Zhou Yang was curious and joined him.
As I got closer, I discovered that there was an Eight Immortals table in the middle of the high platform. Sitting behind the table was a middle-aged cultivator who looked like he was at the peak of the spiritual platform. He had a fat head, big ears, and a white face without a beard. He was drinking alone.
Behind him stood four big men in the middle stage of the spiritual platform. Behind the big men were dozens of male and female cultivators with dull expressions.
"Xiu Nu! Is this the Xiu Nu that that person said?" Zhou Yang raised his eyes and looked towards the stage, but he frowned.
Most of these cultivators are in the Kaiyuan realm, and there are also a few Lingtai cultivators. Among them, there is actually a cultivator of the fourth level of the Lingtai, standing in the middle with his head bowed.
These people's bodies were stiff, their expressions were dull, and their eyes were dull.
The cultivators must have their acupuncture points restrained and cannot use their elemental or spiritual power. Moreover, from time to time, small figures with shackles will appear in the Yintang of these people, looming.
This is the slave mark.
Zhou Yang was just watching the excitement and had no intention of buying Xiunu. He had not yet reached the point where he had too many spiritual stones to spend.
The obese cultivator on the high platform took a sip of wine, glanced at Zhou Yang, and said lazily: "Just tell me which one you like. It's time for dinner now. I'll give it to you cheaper."
Zhou Yang shook his head, turned around and left.
However, after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned around and looked up at one of the cultivators.
"How come it looks so familiar!" Zhou Yang stared at the cultivator carefully, thinking quickly in his mind.
At the same time, his eyes glanced at the person's side, because he found that the female cultivator with dull eyes looked familiar.
These two people only have the mid-Kaiyuan Mirror Realm and are similar in age.
"Yes, it's them!" After a moment, Zhou Yang screamed.
Although his appearance changed greatly, he still recognized it.
The fat man who was drinking was stunned and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you yelling about? If you don't want to buy it, you can leave. Don't disturb this young master while he drinks."
"Who said not to buy it? I have to pick one." Zhou Yang was awakened and reacted very quickly, then scolded.
When the fat man heard that there was a business, his tone immediately changed, and he said with a smile on his face: "You can choose, fellow Taoist, and just tell me which one you like. All the slaves I have here are obedient, and they are of all levels. Male and female nuns are all good at cultivating them." , I guarantee you won’t regret buying it.”
The fat man chattered endlessly, praising his slaves as if he were selling his own goods.
Zhou Yang ignored the fat man's noise and went up the wooden ladder to the high platform. He first walked around among the male slaves, seemingly carefully selected, and then pointed at the peak Kaiyuan slave and said, "How many spiritual stones does this have?"
"Three thousand five hundred first-grade spiritual stones." The fat man said.
"It's too expensive. Can it be cheaper?" Zhou Yang was shocked that he wanted so much.
"It was still selling for three thousand and eighty in the morning. Let's make a friend and give it to you at a cheaper price." The fat man said hurriedly.
"I want two, a boy and a girl. You can make it cheaper."
When the fat man heard this, his eyes lit up: "You should choose the female cultivator first. Once you have chosen one, it will be settled."
"The one at the top of the spirit realm is a bit more expensive, so let's go for this lower one, and that girl." Zhou Yang shook his head first, and then pointed at the familiar male and female cultivators.
"These two Kaiyuan fourth-level mirror realms are indeed cheap. The male one will cost you one thousand nine hundred yuan, and the female one will cost you two thousand five. In total, you can give me four thousand four hundred yuan of first-grade spiritual stones."
This amount is not small. Now Zhou Yang's personal spiritual stones have been spent, and some have been lost. If more than four thousand spirit stones were spent, half of the spirit stones in the public school would be gone.
Nowadays, there are more varieties of Golden Orchids, and the cost has surged. The public school originally had 20,000 spirit stones, but after planting the big-leaf green grass and moon-watching golden orchid, there were only more than 10,000 left. There were still several months of wages to pay, so part of it had to be reserved.
Mo Chenglong and his son trusted him, and he controlled all the spirit stones in the palace. It was convenient to spend them, but it would be difficult to account for them if they spent too much.
But these two people were too important to him, and he had to save them. He couldn't do it forcefully, so he could only use spiritual stones to solve them. I can't worry about that much now, I'll explain it to the father and son later.
"It's still too expensive, especially for this female cultivator. Let's do this, a total of four thousand, and I'll only pay four thousand." Zhou Yang said with the attitude of saving every dollar.
"It's still expensive! You see how beautiful this female nun is. Even if she sells it to a brothel, the price will be higher than this. We are in a hurry. If we are not in a hurry, the auction will cost at least three thousand yuan. I will give you two thousand five hundred, which is already the cheapest. "The fat man didn't let go.
"Don't you have an auction? Four thousand yuan. Hurry up. If it doesn't work, I'll leave." Zhou Yang also grew up hanging out in Fangshi. Seeing the fat man's eyes twinkling, he knew there was still room for negotiation, so he made a show of leaving.
"It's too little. I can't explain it if you sell it like this. If you give me four thousand two, it's cheap enough!"
"Four thousand. If it works, I'll dig out the spirit stones. If it doesn't work, I'll leave. I have several others at home, including these two." Zhou Yang shook his head.
"Hey, you are so good at bargaining. Come on, I'll give it to you. This is a bloody price. Just make a friend and take care of my business in the future!" The fat man finally relaxed.
"No problem. By the way, I'd like to ask one more question. Don't the Three Saints Sect and the Xuanfu Sect urgently need a large number of cultivators? Didn't they come here to buy?" Zhou Yang paid off the spirit stones and asked casually.
"To be honest, we came here from Dingbeicheng to send slaves to the two factions. They only want male slaves from Kaiyuanjing, regardless of age. These female cultivators were brought here to sell. And those few The male cultivator is younger and pretty good-looking. The two factions couldn't give him a price, so we took it and sold it." The fat man took the spirit stone and explained.
"Oh. They want a lot, right?"
"Fifteen hundred, this is not a secret, it doesn't hurt to tell you. The demand of the two factions is actually three thousand, and they will find a way to solve the remaining half by themselves."
Fifteen hundred cultivators are only half of them! Zhou Yang was shocked.
The fat man added: "They bought 30,000 mortal slaves from Tongzhou Trading Company. At a ten to one ratio, the two factions need 3,000 cultivators."
"Yeah." Zhou Yang nodded.
The remaining 1,500 cultivators will be captured by the two factions in Anping City. Based on the average of 1,500 spirit stones per Xiu slave, if they could capture the other half, they would save more than 2 million spirit stones.
"This new mine must be quite big, it actually requires so many mining slaves." Zhou Yang thought to himself. After a moment, he asked again: "So you are merchants from Dingbeicheng?"
"Exactly, we are from Dashun Trading Company."
"Dashun Trading Company? How does it compare to Tongzhou Trading Company here?"
"Each has its own merits, but our trading company is the largest in Dingbei City, and Tongzhou Trading Company is far behind. Tongzhou Trading Company does not intervene in the slave repair business. They mainly sell mortal slaves." The fat man said.
"Then which mirror realm does your slave have the highest cultivation level in?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"Our firm specializes in cultivating slaves. We have slaves from all realms, ranging from Tianyuan to Kaiyuan. As long as you need it, we can satisfy you." The fat man said with his chest raised.
