The best ring

Wu Fan's words made the scene suddenly quiet, and the faces of several people darkened.

"What's wrong? Is the situation very bad?" Wu Fan asked.

"The three of them are fine, but they won't be able to go to the battlefield in the future, and it's hard to say whether they will be able to farm after they return." Zheng Xiaoliu said.

Obviously, the three people were seriously injured. Although their lives were saved, they were disabled and unable to go to the battlefield.

Wu Fan frowned slightly. He did not expect that the situation of those three people would be so serious. In today's society, a family, especially a family that is not particularly wealthy, if one of them is disabled, it will directly bring down the entire family. , and if this person is originally the breadwinner of the family, the consequences will be even more serious, and it is very likely that the entire family will not be able to survive.

"Captain, you can persuade them later. I'm afraid the three of them can't think about it." Wang Bing said to Wu Fan.

This is not alarmist. After knowing that they become disabled and will become a burden to their families, it is not impossible for them to choose to commit suicide in order not to bring greater pressure to their not-so-rich families. In fact, this possibility is very high!

"Well, I'll go over and take a look." Wu Fan said, "Xiao Liu, you go with me and go to the market later to buy some servants. You guys stay and tidy up the place a little. In the evening, we Have a good time here.”

"Okay." Everyone responded.

Afterwards, Wu Fan took Xiaoliu out.

"Why did you think of becoming my personal soldiers?" Wu Fan asked Zheng Xiaoliu on the way.

Although Niu Er had told Wu Fan before that he wanted to be Wu Fan's personal soldier, at that time, Wu Fan only thought that Niu Er was joking, because becoming someone else's personal soldier was actually not a good idea. The status of those maids and servants is just higher, and they are actually equivalent to the servants of the master's family. Wu Fan feels that no one is willing to be a slave to others, at least, Wu Fan himself cannot accept it.

However, Wu Fan forgot that this was not a peaceful modern era, but another time and space. What many people here were thinking about was not where to play or what delicious food to eat, but how to survive.

"This is normal." Zheng Xiaoliu said: "Being a soldier for the captain, we don't have to go home to farm, and we don't have to increase the burden on our family. We can also get food and pay. Moreover, as the baron's soldiers, we all We are exempted from military service and don’t have to pay taxes. There are many benefits. I don’t know how many people are trying to become the captain’s soldiers. If those people in the camp knew that we became the captain’s soldiers, they would probably die of envy. ”

Only then did Wu Fan realize that he was not from this era and could not fully understand the thoughts of people of this era. In his opinion, things that were undignified would actually be sought after. When faced with the threat of death, dignity would Not worth much anymore.

The two quickly arrived at the camp where the three seriously injured people were. The faces of the three people were all pale and gray. Wu Fan knew that this was not only due to the impact of their injuries, but also because of worries about the future.

"You three, don't think too much, things are not as bad as you think." Wu Fan comforted.

"Captain, my legs are broken and I'm a cripple. It's hard to go back to farming like this. If I had known better, I might as well have died. That way I wouldn't be a drag on my family, and the court could still give my family some pension." One of the team members said with a sad face.

The other two people also looked desperate. It would be better for them to die then. In that case, at least they would not be a drag on their families. Their families were not wealthy to begin with. If they were more disabled, they might not be able to survive. I can't live any longer.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Fan said with a straight face: "As long as you are alive, there is hope. I happen to have a house there. If you are willing, you can come to my place and I will support you."

After all, these three people are all members of Wu Fan's team. They have been together for a while and have feelings for each other. Wu Fan does not want to see the three of them committing suicide.

"What are you still doing? Why don't you thank the captain quickly?!" Zheng Xiaoliu quickly reminded the three people who were a little dazed: "The captain was made a baron by the court, and he was also rewarded with a big house. We, the captain's relatives, Bing, you three are the captain’s servants, we can still follow the captain together in the future.”

"Thank you, captain, thank you captain." After Zheng Xiaoliu's reminder, the three of them quickly expressed their gratitude to Wu Fan with excited faces. They even wanted to get up from the bed and kneel down and kowtow to Wu Fan.

In their situation, they can no longer farm, and other wealthy families are naturally even less likely to take them in. But now, Wu Fan kindly takes them in, which is equivalent to giving them a way to survive, so that they will not become a burden to the family, and even save their own money. If you take it seriously, you can still support your family. This is equivalent to saving their family. How can they not be excited?

However, the three of them, including Zheng Xiaoliu, misunderstood what Wu Fan meant. Wu Fan had no intention of making them servants, but simply raising them. After all, being a servant meant that he was a servant and inferior to others. .

However, seeing the three of them so excited, they obviously don't care about being servants, and even feel excited about it, because that proves that they are not useless, they are still useful!

Therefore, Wu Fan did not explain anymore that it might not be a bad thing for them to let them use their own labor to support themselves and their families. As for the low status of the servants, it depends on how they deal with it?

After dealing with the three people, Wu Fan and Zheng Xiaoliu went to the market.

The location of this market was told to Wu Fan by the housekeeper. This market is very special. It does not sell any food, clothes or other items. There is only one commodity here.

People!

There are a lot of people who want to sell their children here. Some people even sit there with a straw on their heads, which means they are selling themselves.

Although Wu Fan was mentally prepared before coming, he was still shocked when he really saw this scene.

When did he, who grew up in a peaceful environment, see such a scene of selling people openly? Even in this world, when he first came here, he saw the peaceful scene in the Hermit Village.

But here is completely different. It is like another world. Here, there are people who are forced by life and can't survive. They choose to sell their children when they are forced to do so in order to keep their families alive.
