Chapter 2044 Buy Big and Get Small

Shen Qingci's gaze moved back a little, as if he was also behind this man, what did he find?

The man suddenly stiffened his body, and then shifted his body to block the things behind him.

"The nobleman is looking at you, what are you hiding?"

The horse dealer whipped a long whip, and immediately left a bloodstain on the man's body, but the man didn't seem to feel any pain, and he didn't even groan.

Only from the trembling muscles on his face from time to time, can we know that he is not ignorant of pain, he is a human being, of flesh and blood, how could he not know the pain, how could he not be in pain, and why is he so forbearing? For what, for the one hidden behind?

But now Shen Qingci still didn't know what was hiding behind him, which made him almost risk his life to protect it.

Everyone has something that they want to protect, even if they risk their lives, they still want to protect it to the end.

So is she.

"Get out of the way!"

The horse dealer flicked his whip again, and another bloodstain was drawn on the man's arm.

The horse dealer went straight over and stretched out his hand.

A child was pulled out from behind the man,

Small, thin, about the size of a dumpling, the clothes on her body are also tattered, only a pair of eyes are beautiful.

The man turned his head and stared at the horse dealer.

The horse dealer put his hand on the boy's neck. All the muscles in the man's body were stiff. He was angry, but he didn't dare to move.

"Girl, what do you think of this?"

The horse dealer dragged the child over, this one is eight years old, although it is a bit younger, but this one is very cheap, and it will grow up after a few years of raising it.

After hearing the horse dealer's voice, the man clenched his teeth even more tightly.

The child stretched out his little hand, grabbed the man's fingers, and shook his head at him.

"Girl, what do you think?" The horse dealer pushed the child again, "It's only a tael of silver, not expensive at all."

Shen Qingci lowered his head and looked at the little guy in front of him, he didn't say whether to buy it or not.

How to sell that, she stretched out her finger and pointed at the man.

"Girl, this one is a bit expensive." The horse dealer rubbed his fingers, "This one is strong and strong, and it's hard work."

"This one costs five taels of silver."

Shen Qingci withdrew his finger, as if he was also thinking about it.

The horse dealer was a little anxious to wait,

"Girl, this five taels of silver is not much. Only my family has this kind of goods. You can take a look. There is no horse sold here that is taller or stronger than this one. Will be martial arts."

Shen Qingci listened to the horse dealer comparing people to horses, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he also felt a sense of sadness.

The peace and prosperity she wanted was not like this.

But no matter how peaceful the era is, there are always these injustices.

Or maybe planting some food can save some people from starving to death, so there will be fewer such places, right?

Shen Qingci took out five taels of silver from his body and placed it in front of the horse dealer.

When the horse dealer saw the silver, his eyes couldn't help but brighten up.

This hard-to-sell one is finally going to be sold, and it's not in vain to eat his food for several months.

But when the horse dealer reached out to take the money, Shen Qingci withdrew his hand.

It also made the horse dealer's hand in the air, inexplicably.

What's the matter, is this not bought?

"Buy him for five taels of silver." Shen Qingci pointed to the tall man, then pointed to the small one in front of him, "Give this small one away."

Horse dealer "..."

"It can't be settled like this."

But Shen Qingci is like a picture that if you don't give it to me, I won't buy it.

The horse dealer thought for a while, then gritted his teeth, and gave it away as it was, for heaven's sake, this small one is not worth much money, it is too small to do much work, so few people want it, and on top of this If it is not well maintained, it will be gone, so give it away.

"Here you are." Shen Qingci threw the money to the horse dealer, who took the money and took a bite in his mouth to make sure it was real money.

The horse dealer collected the money, then walked over, pulled the chain, and pulled the man in front of Shen Qingci.

"You break the chain."

Shen Qingci couldn't accept a person, and someone put an iron chain around his neck. This is a human being, not a dog.

"Girl, this has a bad temper, it's better to lock it up."

The horse dealer pulled the iron chain again. Of the many people here, this is the most difficult to deal with, and it is as difficult to teach as difficult.

"Untie it."

Shen Qingci didn't have the habit of locking people up, the people around her always followed her willingly, they were free to leave or stay, and he had a bad temper, just because he had something he wanted to protect.

Shen Qingci's own temper is not very good, if someone hurts the person she wants to protect, don't tell her that she has a bad temper, she will kill anyone.

Seeing that Shen Qingci couldn't be persuaded, the horse dealer had no choice but to untie the iron chain, which would be fine and save him an iron chain.

Shen Qingci stretched out his hand and placed it on the little boy's body, and the man clenched his fist again.

"Don't worry, I didn't mean to hurt her." Shen Qingci patted the little head.

"How old is this little one?"

In fact, Shen Qingci absolutely didn't believe this young eight-year-old, it's not that she has never seen an eight-year-old child before, this one is too young.

"Four years old."

The man's voice was hoarse, and his hands that were clenched into fists were slowly loosened.

"Take her with you." Shen Qingci stroked the child's frizzy hair again, "I still need to buy a few more people."

The man walked over and picked up the child.

"Is she your daughter?"

Shen Qingci realized at a glance that this was a little girl, and she could tell the difference between male and female, as she could tell from the skeleton.

"It's sister." The man touched the child's little head, and the child also leaned his little head on his brother's shoulder.

It is indeed a little bit, and it is really pitiful.

"what's your name?"

Shen Qingci asked as he walked, also looking for someone he liked.

"Qiu Fan."

The man said his name, but he hadn't spoken for a long time, and when he mentioned this name, he was a stranger.

"Her name is Ah Qing."

The man pressed his sister's small head on his shoulder, and also tightly protected his sister with his own hands.

"My family lives in a small village. It's just me and my aunt. We do a small business with others. Sometimes we go to and from the town. You know how to drive a carriage. If you don't, go and learn."

"meeting."

The man has been following behind Shen Qingci, and Shen Qingci has not cared about him.

And when she asked a question, the man only answered one word.

But in Great Liang, fleeing a slave is a serious crime, tantamount to suicide.

"oh……"

Shen Qingci only had this sentence and then stopped talking.

She walked around and continued to buy people, and what she likes to do the most is like buying Qiufan, buying a big one and giving away a small one.
