Start with the Lord of the Rings

in Westeros.

Because of the existence of the Faith of the Seven Gods, slavery was hated and strictly prohibited.

And on the continent of Essos.

It is still prevalent in many free federal cities.

Just like Pantos, although slavery is officially banned, as long as the slaves are given the new title of "free slave", the slave trade can be carried out openly.

It's not so much the rich and slaves taking advantage of the law.

It is better to say that the huge chain of interests is trampling on the majesty of the so-called law.

But there is one free city-state exception.

That is the city-state of "Braavos" located at the far northwest tip of Essos.

Braavos is the most special and powerful city-state among the free trade city-states.

Because the power and wealth of "Braavos" all come from navigation, the ruler of this city-state is also known as "Sea King!".

And because "Braavos" was founded by runaway slaves.

So they do not allow the existence of slavery, nor do they trade with the largest slave trading market "Slave Bay".

Pantos.

On the first day Morgan crossed the narrow sea and came to this city, he encountered a public auction of slaves, no, it was an auction of "free slaves".

Stop and stand on the edge of the auction venue.

Listening to the explanation of the bloated middle-aged auctioneer in the delicate and bright clothes on the auction platform and the discussions of the surrounding crowd.

Morgan quickly gained a preliminary understanding of the so-called "free slaves" on the high platform in front of him.

For example, he knew that female slaves were the most valuable, especially young and beautiful female slaves, as well as underage female slaves.

However, the number will be relatively small.

Then there are the adult male slaves, because they can work.

As for underage boy slaves, it was the cheapest.

Because they have no strength.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, and the same goes for underage slave boys. As long as they are handsome and beautiful, the price is also high.

"Everyone, this auction."

The bloated middle-aged slave traders are still in Barabara.

But today the weather is very good, the sky is cloudless, it is noon, the sun is a little hot.

Some buyers in the onlookers below were a little unstoppable and couldn't wait.

"I know, I know."

"Don't be long-winded, let's get started."

"It's so damn hot"

"I wouldn't have come if it wasn't for these girls."

"Get started."

"."

Far from making the bloated slave trader on stage angry, the urging of the onlookers made him even happier because his wares were popular.

"Since you are so enthusiastic, let's get started"

The middle-aged bloated slave trader showed his trademark profiteer smile and just waved back, and the guard guarding the slave immediately brought a thin, dirty boy to the front of the high platform.

"Eleven years old, starting with thirty silver coins, and each increase shall not be less than one silver coin. Start now."

The bloated slave trader's voice fell.

The quotation sounded immediately below.

"thirty."

"thirty-one"

"Thirty-one times."

"Thirty-one times"

"Thirty-one deals!"

"Take the next one."

Looking at the thin body of the slave boy who was brought to the auction in front of everyone on the high platform, his eyes were horrified, and the auction process that the slave merchant and the people below were extremely familiar with.

Morgan was a little touched.

But he didn't say anything.

Also as he had heard before, the first boy was sold for almost a low auction price, indicating the value of these slave boys.

Soon, the second boy was brought up.

"Fourteen years old, starting with thirty silver coins, starting now."

"thirty."

"thirty-one"

"Thirty-four"

"Thirty-four third time. Deal!"

"."

Watch one slave after another being auctioned off.

Morgan stood in the audience and gradually saw a lot of things.

For example: the older, the healthier the boy looks, the higher the price;

The boy slaves are generally worn and dirty, while the clothes on the five girls are also of the lowest class linen, but their clothes and bodies are obviously much cleaner and other details.

The auction goes on and on.

Morgan didn't want to buy the slaves, but he didn't move away either.

[Let's briefly talk about the currency situation of the whole world. Because the currency system of Game of Thrones is a bit unscientific, in order to make writing more convenient, the exchange rate of gold coins to silver coins is fixed here: 1 gold coin = 50 silver coins]

Time passed slowly.

When the last boy was sold for thirty-five silver coins.

Finally, the auction of the five girls started.

Morgan could clearly feel that the atmosphere of the surrounding crowd had changed a lot.

Obviously, many people here are here for these five girls.

"I know you've been looking forward to it for a long time."

"But you all know the price of girls, so I won't talk nonsense."

The bloated slave trader waved his hand again, and the first ordinary-looking, thin girl was brought to the front of the high platform.

"Twelve years old, the starting auction is seventy silver coins, and each increase shall not be less than five silver coins. Start now."

"seventy-five"

"Eighty-five"

"One Hundred"

Watching the fierce scene of the enthusiastic bidding of the people in front of the high stage.

Morgan saw that these girls were indeed much more expensive than boys.

"one hundred twenty."

"One hundred and twenty first. Second time."

"One hundred and twenty third deal!"

"Take the next one."

"One hundred and seventy"

"One hundred and seventy pieces for the third time. Deal!"

As the auction of the five girls started, the atmosphere was getting higher and higher.

The middle-aged slave traders obviously knew very well that in the hearts of everyone, the slaves with the better quality were put behind.

The boy in the front is the same, and the girl in the back is the same.

This also led to the fiercer competition among the crowd.

Finally, when the four pretty girls auctioned off two hundred and sixty silver coins, which exceeded the price of five gold coins.

The last girl was also brought forward.

Because this girl had been standing behind the other children before, and had been hunched over with her head lowered, her long blond hair obscuring her appearance, Morgan didn't pay much attention.

Now looking at the other party before being brought to the high stage, he realized that this girl is taller than the previous girls.

Tall and thin, with solid blond hair.

Don't need to look at the appearance, this girl has surpassed the previous girls by a lot because of this figure, because in this world, most of the solid color hair is from aristocratic background.

"Stand up straight, look up, and let the guests take a good look"

The middle-aged bloated slave trader raised the girl's chin with the whip in his hand, and the girl raised her head instantly.

The crowd of onlookers below immediately became noisy.

The face is a little too thin, but the skin is very white, unhealthy white, and a few freckles add a cuteness to the girl.

The most important thing is that this girl has a pair of very rare green eyes (eye color refers to the Indian lady who used to brush the screen because of her beautiful eyes).

Morgan had only seen eyes of this color on the face of Queen Cersei Lannister who had the "First Beauty of Westeros" before.

But even Cersei Lannister's eyes were not as pure and clear as the green eyes of the girl in front of him.

The nervous and frightened expression on the girl's face who was forcibly raised her head by the slave trader did not affect the girl's appearance, but aroused everyone's desire for protection and possessiveness.

As a result, the noise of the crowd below the high platform grew louder.

"Her name is Aphra, she is thirteen years old this year, and comes from a noble family. I won't say anything else."

The middle-aged bloated slave trader was very satisfied with the reaction of the people below.

In fact, this girl is the best quality girl he has bought in the past few years.

Originally, this girl was of sufficient quality to be brought to participate in the more advanced free city-state aristocratic slave auction.

But I bought it by accident because it was a week ago.

The last city-state aristocratic slave auction had just ended in less than a month, and there was still a whole year before the next one.

He couldn't wait that long, so he just tried selling it together this time.

Anyway, I can't sell it and keep it for a year.

"The starting price of Aphra is 100 gold coins, and each increase is not less than five gold coins. Start now."

The middle-aged slave trader's incomparably bright smile fell.

The crowd that had been excited and noisy under the high platform instantly fell silent.

Immediately afterwards, a louder noise broke out from the crowd.

"Oh my God"

"The starting price is 100 gold coins, is this guy out of his mind?"

"That's right, I can buy a bunch of girls for a hundred gold coins, and she's not worth a hundred gold coins no matter how beautiful she is"

"Damn, isn't this guy crazy about money?"

"One hundred gold coins, what should I do?"

"I'd rather spend a hundred gold coins to go to the "Red Poppy Brothel" to buy some pretty prostitutes home, than spend it on this scrawny girl."

"Although 100 gold coins is a lot, as long as this girl takes good care of her body, we will never lose money if we sell it to a high-end brothel after it's finished."

"I don't agree. It's too risky. You have to listen carefully. One hundred gold coins is just the starting price for this girl, not the transaction price."

"Don't worry, no one will compete with us for such a high price. We don't want it if the price is too high."

"Haha, one hundred gold coins, I can't afford it, let's see who can take her away today, but this girl's eyes are so beautiful."

"."

For a time, the crowd below the high platform was noisy, exclaimed, scolding the slave owners and profiteers, and various voices watching the fun came out.

The middle-aged bloated slave owner looked at the noisy scene below, and the smile on his face became more and more brilliant.

No wonder the following crowds are excited.

Because the starting price of one hundred gold coins was determined by him with reference to the auction price of the high-level slaves of the city-state nobles.

Generally, the little aristocrats feel the price of meat pain.

Of course, it is a sky-high price for this group of people who are at most the wealthy class.

After all, this girl just has rare eyes.

One hundred gold coins to spend on women they have too many choices.

And ordinary nobles and even big nobles would never appear in such open-air small workshop auctions.

After a tumultuous time.

The crowd began to quiet down, because no one dared to speak.

Facing the reaction of the people below.

The slave owner's expression did not change at all, and he still looked at everyone with a smile on his face.

One hundred gold coins is the reserve price of "Aphra".

He will never sell it for less than this price, and if he can't sell it, at most he will spend some time and money to raise it.

"I give out a hundred gold coins"

At this time, the high platform was in front, and two middle-aged men, one tall and one short, looked at each other, stretched out their hands and quoted the price first.

"It's not there"

The bloated slave owner's face instantly turned into a chrysanthemum, and he said with great enthusiasm: "One hundred gold coins for the first time."

"One hundred gold coins for the second time."

"Is there any client bidding?"

Time passed slowly, and for the first time there was a trace of unnaturalness on the bloated slave owner's face.

He is a slave trader, and he knows very well the quality of the girl in his hands. If he sells it at a low price of 100, he will feel a little pain even if he makes a lot of money.

"You look at the girl's beautiful and charming eyes, and even if you look at the entire Pantos, you will never find a second one!"

"Are there any other bids?"

The bloated slave owner looked at everyone below in anticipation.

Everyone below is also looking at the slave owners and girls on the high platform.

at this time.

"One hundred and five"

A voice came from behind the crowd.

The bloated slave owner's face instantly rejoiced.

Although five gold coins are worth a lot of money, he is more interested in having a second customer bid, because that can lead to competition.

One increase is five gold coins.

Fighting for one more time will make a big profit.

At this moment, the slave owner and all the onlookers below, and even Aphra, the girl on the high platform, who had calmed down a lot, all looked at the bidding man behind the crowd.

The bidder was naturally Morgan.

The girl on the high platform was so thin that she was about to become a chopstick and a bamboo pole.

The skin is obviously unhealthy pale, and the facial features are slightly stronger than the average girl.

But only this girl's eyes are really too beautiful and attractive.

The reason why he was very interested in Cersei Lannister, Queen of the Seven Queens of Westeros, was mainly because Morgan was very fond of each other's looks and temperament.

When he first saw the queen in Winterfell, he was attracted by her green eyes.

And the green eyes of the girl in front of her were clear.

In Morgan's eyes, he was more amazed than Cersei Lannister's eyes.

The girl obviously hasn't grown up yet.

If she takes time to take care of her body and wait for the girl to get older, this girl will definitely amaze the world.

This should also be the reason why the slave traders dared to shout out a huge sum of 100 gold coins.

Of course, Morgan, the treasure girl, had to buy it.

What's more, the next journey is long, and he just lacks a car.

[The currency systems such as golden dragon coins and silver deer circulating in the seven countries of Westeros are called because the ancestor of the Targaryen Dynasty "Conqueror" Aegon conquered the whole Westeros, so the golden dragon coins and silver deer are like this The name is limited to Westeros, in Essos and many other places, the name, shape and decoration of gold coins are different, but the same is that each gold coin and silver coin weighs the same , does not affect the circulation, which is why it is directly called gold coins and silver coins in Pantos. 】

The sudden increase in the price of Morgan instantly became the focus of the entire auction venue.

Many people immediately turned to look at the two middle-aged men who were the first to bid.

"One hundred and ten"

After hesitating for a while, the two middle-aged men looked at each other anxiously, and one of the middle-aged men gritted his teeth and added five gold coins again.

When everyone looked at Morgan again.

Morgan's expression was incomparably flat: "One hundred and fifteen."

The voice fell.

One of the middle-aged men immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although the other who called for the price did not speak again, everyone could see the unwillingness in his eyes.

"One hundred and fifteen gold coins for the first time."

"the second time"

"Are there any customers who want to increase the price?"

"One hundred and fifteen gold coins for the third time"

"make a deal!"

With a shout of the middle-aged bloated slave trader, he dropped the hammer.

The entire auction venue was noisy again.

One hundred gold coins to buy a slave girl is definitely a rarity in their eyes.

On the high platform, Afra, the girl who was auctioned off, looked at the tall figure with black ponytail not far away and couldn't help but feel slightly relieved.
