Chapter 339, Interstellar Slave Trade

Time goes back to the trade fair in the Boyle galaxy.

Li Wandu and Ding Xiaoqiang looked around curiously at the stalls. Many things were very rare. Things that could attract the soldiers of the Kalan Empire to snatch were naturally not common. Moreover, these things were very mixed and came from many primitive galaxies.

"This mask is pretty good."

Ding Xiaoqiang took a metal mask and put it on his face. The mask looked very ferocious and terrifying, with a green face and fangs. It was something used by some indigenous civilization for sacrifice.

"I like this sword too. It's quite sharp."

Ding Xiaoqiang picked up another ancient sword. There were snowflake-like patterns on it. The sword body was very sharp, with blood grooves, and it was inlaid with a valuable sapphire. It was obvious that it should be a sword used by a powerful person on a certain indigenous planet. It eventually fell into the hands of the officer of the Kalan Empire in front of him and became a very common selling item here.

"Boss, can I exchange these two things for this?"

Ding Xiaoqiang took out a box of tea leaves, which were not very good, and tried to ask.

"What's the use of this leaf?"

The stall owner took the leaf and observed it carefully. He opened the box and smelled the fragrance of the tea leaves. He squinted his eyes slightly and seemed to enjoy it.

"You boil some water and then soak these tea leaves in the water. Don't put too much each time. It is very beneficial to your health and can strengthen your stomach and digestion."

Ding Xiaoqiang smiled and said how to use the tea leaves.

The stall owner took the tea leaves and smelled them carefully. He seemed to be hesitant. Then he thought about it and nodded. Anyway, he had a lot of things in the hands of these natives and didn't spend a penny. He liked the fragrance of this tea very much, so he exchanged it.

Ding Xiaoqiang also happily put away the two things. This mask is definitely not worth much, but this ancient sword still has a certain collection value. Of course, his box of tea leaves is not a precious thing. The exchange between them made both parties happy.

The stall owner's stall area is very large, and the items are very complete. As the trade fair progresses, more and more people come and keep looking for things they like in the stall. From time to time, people take the things they have chosen to bargain with the stall owner, and exchange various things with the stall owner for what they like.

"Boss, are these slaves?"

Some people pointed to the many aliens in the cages on the side. These aliens look different. Some are tall, muscular, with thick nostrils and tall and pointed ears. Some are short and have thick hair. Some are just wearing some animal fur to cover important parts, and some are wearing high-quality clothes. Some look carefully at everything around them with curious eyes, and some look depressed and anxious all day long... In short, there are all kinds of them, obviously from many planets.

Some of them were still at a very low level of civilization, probably only at the primitive tribal stage, while others were obviously already at a very good level of civilization, but were eventually conquered by the Kalan Empire. These people were captured and became slaves, and were locked in cages like animals. They kept their distance from the primitive natives with great disdain, and their eyes were shrewdly looking at everything around them, as if looking for an opportunity to regain their freedom.

"Yes, these are slaves, very cheap, 5 slaves count as one commodity, cheap, I am tired of carrying these slaves, eating and drinking almost broke me."

The stall owner was obviously not good at hiding his inner emotions, and seemed a little nagging. These slaves were all captured by him from the primitive planet and brought with him. Slaves are not dead commodities, they need to eat, drink, defecate, etc., so he has been investing money in them.

"Since it's a loss, why did you capture these slaves?"

Li Wandu also looked over at this time, looking at the many slaves in the cage. At this time, these slaves also looked at Li Wandu with their eyes, full of desire for freedom, and at the same time, you can also see the raging anger in their eyes, especially from some civilizations that have developed.

In their eyes, you can clearly see their unwillingness and yearning for freedom in their hearts. Being locked in a small cage, living with primitive natives like wild beasts, eating, drinking, defecating, etc., basically in it, like a beast, this is definitely not something that civilized people can tolerate.

"%……%&%%x-on:#x-on:"

When these slaves saw someone looking over, they shouted one by one, obviously wanting to get out of the current situation, even if they were bought by someone, at least they wouldn't be locked in a cage.

"Why are you arguing? You are tired of living."

The soldiers of the Kalan Empire obviously did not smile at Li Wandu and others. They pointed the electric batons at the iron cages, and all the slaves in the cages rolled their eyes and collapsed to the ground. The people of the Kalan Empire have never been merciful to slaves.

"We were supposed to return to our Kalan Empire soon. These slaves can still be sold at a good price as long as they are transported back, but now you know that time has been wasted."

"If you want to buy them, I can sell them to you at a lower price. Anyway, if they don't come back after a while, I will get rid of them. They are eating, drinking, defecating and urinating every day, which makes me lose a lot of money."

The stall owner turned to Li Wandu and explained with a smile.

"Is the interstellar slave trade very prosperous?"

Li Wandu frowned when he heard it. The treatment he mentioned should be killing or doing something else. In short, it is impossible to say that they will be treated well and given freedom.

"Of course, in the interstellar universe, the slave trade is as popular as the arms trade. If these slaves can be sold to our Kalan Empire, this slave will be sold for tens of thousands of Kalan coins. If you encounter a slave who looks similar to our Kalan Empire, the price can be increased tenfold. Some slaves with special functions can be sold for millions, tens of millions, and even hundreds of millions of Kalan coins."

The stall owner nodded and talked about the considerable profits of the interstellar slave trade.

"Then the profit is quite high."

Li Wan nodded after listening.

"Of course it is high. Slaves have a wide range of uses. They can be used as labor, for live experiments, to meet certain special needs, as pets, and even as food. In short, slaves have a wide range of uses. In our Kalan Empire, basically every family will buy some slaves."

"So the slave trade is also a very profitable business in interstellar trade. I am just doing a small business, catching some slaves on primitive planets and selling them. The number is very small, just a hobby."

"In each interstellar civilization, there are companies, individuals, families, etc. that specialize in interstellar slave trade. These major forces even specialize in breeding and breeding slaves in order to capture planets, and they are very strict about the origin of slaves. According to the needs of customers, they carry out special targeted breeding and so on. "

"The slaves in their hands are really valuable, especially those high-end private customized slaves. Each one is worth a lot of money, far from these low-level goods. The slaves trained by these slave companies or organizations are very obedient and will never have the heart to betray. They can maximize their value. "

"These slaves in my hands are still wild, so for the sake of safety, I have installed slave collars on them. There is no need to worry about anything. If they are disobedient, they will be taught a lesson directly. "

The stall owner and Li Wan have made a business. Seeing that many people around are interested in slaves, they are also enthusiastically talking about various things about the interstellar slave trade.

After listening to the stall owner's words, everyone couldn't help but take a breath. It was so naked. Once they became interstellar slaves, they were no different from beasts and animals.

It is not just a matter of losing freedom, but becoming a commodity, a commodity that can be manipulated at will, sold like a beast, and even more likely to be treated like a beast and become food, pets, etc. in the mouths of certain civilizations.

If they fall into the hands of slave organizations, it will be even more miserable. These slave organizations specialize in hard trade and also keep them in captivity. They do not need to be bred and cultivated in a targeted manner. This is no different from the dogs, pigs, sheep, and cattle around us. They have been slaves for generations and become toys in the hands of others.

Everyone couldn't help but feel fortunate that they lived in the empire and in a powerful civilized country. If the technology of their civilization was not developed, once they could not defeat these aliens, they would be lucky to die in the war. Once they became interstellar slaves, it would be worse than death.

Among these slaves, it can be clearly seen that some of them are civilized people who have already started. They even have things like calculating time in their hands, and the clothes they wear are also industrial products. However, although their civilization has developed, they still lost to the Kalan Empire, so their fate is very tragic.

These people are often the most depressed and the most miserable among the slaves, and they also die the fastest among the interstellar slaves. Apart from other things, they cannot compete with the primitive indigenous people for food.

On the contrary, the primitive indigenous people, who are tall and strong, seem to be able to accept being slaves. At this time, their mental state is quite good, and they all look relatively calm. However, their eyes are also full of longing for freedom. After all, even animals don't like to be locked in cages.
