Chapter 340 The Dark World
He pointed at the jade pendant in Mu Baobao's hand and said, "Baby, this jade pendant is too valuable to wear on your body. It must be sent back to your home as soon as possible."
Zheng Xingguang said, "Baby, I'll arrange for someone to send the jade pendant back to your home."
Mu Baobao handed the jade pendant to him very straightforwardly, "Thank you for your help, little brother."
She still hasn't realized what kind of existence this jade pendant is.
Zheng Xingguang arranged for Baozi to deliver the jade pendant to the Mu family, and then he took Mu baby to change clothes.
Mu Baobao changed into a simple pink dress, which made her look cute and lively.
The fabric is of top quality, and Princess Rui personally arranged for the embroiderer to make it.
Mu Baobao cannot tell whether the fabric is truly good or bad, he only knows that it is good fabric.
She stood there and turned around a few times, showing it to Zheng Xingguang and Mingtian: "Does it look good?"
Mingtian and Zheng Xingguang applauded, "Beautiful! The baby is the most beautiful!"
Mu Baobao was satisfied and went out to play with Mingtian and Zheng Xingguang.
the other side.
Cheng Zishi brought Mu Pingping and several other children to a place.
In a very luxurious yet low-key house.
Muniu and his companions looked at the place with curiosity and amazement. They had never seen such a beautiful place before.
There are many people coming and going here, and some of them are wearing masks, obviously not wanting others to know their true appearance.
"Sir..." Mu Niuniu just opened his mouth when Cheng Zishi gave him a cold look and he dared not speak anymore.
Before coming here, the teacher specifically told me not to speak or do anything without his permission.
He covered his mouth and dared not speak anymore.
Cheng Zishi brought Mu Pingping and others to the private room.
The private rooms here are different from ordinary ones.
The front of the private room is open, allowing guests to see what's happening on the stage.
If the guest does not want to be seen by outsiders, he can lower the curtain.
The private rooms are more luxuriously decorated.
Mu Pingping and the other children were at a loss as to what to do. They had never seen such a scene before.
Cheng Zishi sat in a chair and motioned for the children to find a place to sit: "Don't be restrained, no one here cares about you."
"The reason I brought you here is to show you the real world."
Mu Pingping and his companions finally found a place to sit down, but they were feeling restless.
What if they accidentally make a mess here?
Everything here looks so expensive.
Cheng Zishi didn't say much. One has to adapt to status and position slowly, otherwise it will bring bad consequences.
"Wait, no matter what you see, don't panic or make any noise. Remember?"
Mu Pingping and the others agreed, feeling a little uneasy.
The light here is dim, and there are too many people coming and going, making it seem like some kind of bad place.
"Welcome everyone to today's auction." A young man wearing a mask stood on the stage and said with a smile on his face.
"Everyone who comes here is familiar with the rules and procedures of our auction. I hope everyone will abide by them."
"Okay, next is the first item."
He clapped his hands a few times.
Then a strong man came up leading a woman.
This is a young woman who is dressed very coolly and looks very charming.
She was led onto the stage with a dull look in her eyes and a dazed expression, allowing the people present to look at her wantonly.
"This thing is pretty good. Even though it's a little dull, it looks good. It must be exciting to play with it."
"If you train this kind of woman well, she can help you make a lot of money."
Mu Pingping and the others had originally blushed at the sight, but now their faces turned pale. What did this mean? What did these people mean?
They all looked at Cheng Zishi. Was it what they thought?
Cheng Zishi was very indifferent: "That's what you think."
"Keep going, this is just the beginning."
If he hadn't returned to Rongdu, he wouldn't have intended to let Pingping and the others get exposed to these dark things so early.
Mu Pingping and the others swallowed their saliva, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Human trafficking?
Although there are people in the village who sell their children, their mothers, and their wives, it has never been like this, and there will never be such a scene.
Such a scene, coupled with such things, made them feel creepy.
While they were thinking about this, the bidding had already begun.
The starting price was surprisingly low, only one hundred copper coins.
However, there were so many people bidding that the price soon rose to ten taels of silver.
Mu Pingping and the others were stunned. Is it so expensive?
Before they could react, someone had already spent fifteen taels of silver to buy the woman.
He is a middle-aged man who looks slightly fat.
He walked onto the stage with a mask on his face and a disgusting smile on his face, and casually threw silver to the host.
"Come, let me show you what the women trained here taste like."
He tore the woman's only clothes into pieces, pushed her to the ground, and started doing that thing.
Not only did no one stop it, but many people also cheered.
"Good! What a show!"
"I need to take a good look at what kind of women are trained here, so that I can decide whether to buy them or not."
Mu Pingping and the others were so frightened that they were almost numb. They lowered their heads in panic, but their ears were filled with all kinds of filthy sounds.
This...this...why is this happening?
Even though he bought it, how could that man treat a woman like this?
People like Mu Niu Niu are impatient and want to do something but dare not do it.
They knew very well that this was not a place where they could act recklessly.
Cheng Zishi noticed the change in the children's mood and said calmly, "Here, anyone who appears on the stage cannot be called a human being."
"Even, it's not as good as livestock."
Mu Niuniu stood up and said, "They..."
He lowered his voice, speaking in a somewhat weak tone, "But sir, they are living people."
Cheng Zishi said indifferently, "To those in power, they are not human beings, but just toys for a moment's whim."
"When you're happy, give them something nice to cheer them up. If you're unhappy, you can beat them up at any time."
“This is the powerful.”
For the first time, Mu Niuniu and his companions truly realized what power and wealth were.
They felt cold all over and were filled with uncontrollable fear.
It turns out that in the eyes of the powerful, they are not human beings, but things that can be beaten and killed at any time.
Mu Pingping had never seen anything so dark before.
He took a breath, wanting to comfort his brothers, but he didn't know how.
In the eyes of those powerful people, they are probably not even as good as toys.
Cheng Zishi didn't say anything else, just signaled Mu Pingping and other children to continue watching.
On the stage.
The middle-aged man pulled up his trousers and spat, "Like a dead fish. Not fun at all."
He called out, "Anyone want to play? Ten coppers each."
