Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

The heavy snow that lasted for a day and a night in Ningchuan City finally stopped in the early morning of the second day, and the sun emerged from the horizon.

Ke Wenhai was going to meet Xiao Mo today, so he got up early on purpose. However, before he had breakfast, a team of city defense soldiers rushed into the Ke family's house.

They did not give Ke Wenhai any chance to resist and directly arrested all the members of the Ke family. However, except for Ke Wenhai and his sons who were shackled, the others only had their hands tied.

"Xiao Mo, I am Concubine Ke's biological father. How dare you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that Concubine Ke will complain to the emperor?"

Ke Wenhai looked at the shackles on his feet and became panicked. He knew what this meant better than anyone else.

"Master Ke, please don't waste your breath here. The entire Ningchuan Prefecture was closed due to heavy snow. It was half a year later when Concubine Ke knew that you had died. Who knows if Concubine Ke was still favored at that time."

Shi Bin threw Ke Wenhai into the abyss with just one sentence. The thing that Emperor Jingdi had the most in his harem was beauties. Over the years, no noble lady had ever been favored all the time.

"Take all the people away. All the property of the Ke family is recorded in the book. If anyone dares to do anything to me, be careful of the sword in my hand."

Shi Bin brought people to raid the Ke family. Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang were not idle either. They went to the Hua family's farm outside the city together.

According to the spies, the Hua family has a farm outside the city that is used for human trafficking. They even keep some women on the farm to give birth to children and then sell them to other places.

It snowed heavily yesterday, and the road out of the city was not easy to travel on. The carriage was not only equipped with anti-skid chains but also specially weighted to prevent slipping on the icy road.

Even so, it still takes a lot of time to get to Zhuangzi.

When the group came to the farm, the village head thought that they were the Hua family members coming to deliver something. As soon as he showed up, he was caught by the guards. As for the guards on the farm, there were only about twenty people in total. The guards on Xiao Mo's side tied them all up with almost no effort.

"Everyone in the Hua family has been arrested by this king and put in jail. Whatever I ask you now, you'd better answer honestly. Don't try to be sneaky. If I find out that you lied, I will kill you now."

"Young ones don't dare."

Xia Zhuangtou knelt on the cold ground, not daring to move, for fear of provoking the living devil in front of him.

Just now, there were a few boys from the Hua family on the farm who were not convinced. The man in front of them raised his sword and swung it down, and those boys were all in danger. If he wanted to live, he naturally didn't dare to hide anything.

"Now, take us to the farm to see how many people live here now, where they come from, and where they are going in the future."

"Yes."

Zhuangtou Xia got up from the ground and took Xiao Mo, Ye Jintang and the others to a larger house on the farm.

"The people living in this room are all pregnant women and those who have given birth."

There were two old women guarding the door of the house. When the thick door curtain was drawn open, an unpleasant smell hit him in the face. Ye Jintang couldn't help but cover his nose with his hand.

There were two large rows of kangs in the room, one for pregnant women who had not given birth, and the other for those who had already given birth. On the kangs were babies a few months old and a little girl about one year old.

All the women in the room were wearing tattered clothes that barely covered their bodies. They all had long iron chains on their feet. There were two small braziers in the middle of the room, and even a toilet not far away.

No wonder there is a strange smell in the house. These women probably eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the house.

"These girls are all good-looking and can be raised and sold for a good price. Some of the babies are boys and have been reserved. Someone will come to pick them up in the spring of next year."

"There are also those who are about to give birth. Several have been diagnosed as boys. Buyers have paid deposits and are waiting for the birth."

Head of Xia Zhuang just thought that Xiao Mo also wanted to make this money, so he told him all the details of the human trafficking.

Ye Jintang felt very sad when he saw the young women with numb expressions in the room. He didn't know how many years they had been here or how much inhuman torture they had endured to have no reaction at all after seeing them.

After coming out of the house, Village Head Xia took them to a courtyard with a wall at least three meters high surrounding it.

"This is where the little girls learn their skills."

"Each room has 10 little girls living in it. Most of them are born by pregnant women there, and some are bought from other places. They have to learn everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting on the farm."

As for the so-called other places, it goes without saying that they were probably bought from kidnappers.

Zhuangtou Xia opened a room at random and saw a little girl inside who looked about 6 or 7 years old. She was learning embroidery from the housekeeper.

Each of the little girls has pretty features, and the winter coats they wear are also cleaner and tidier.

Ye Jintang thought that the reason why they were dressed so neatly was probably because they were always ready to be picked up and sold at a good price.

Coming out of the large courtyard, there are ordinary farmhouses. The houses are extremely dilapidated, almost all of them are adobe. It is clearly morning and the sun is shining outside, but when looking in from the outside, the house is dark.

"The people living here are all women sent here from other places. Some are young, some are a little older. They usually work in the fields. If someone comes to buy them, they will be sold directly."

“What if it still can’t be sold?”

Ye Jintang suddenly asked.

"People on the farm also need to eat, so they need someone to grow food. Women who can't sell their crops will continue to work as laborers on the farm."

Hearing this, Ye Jintang couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. Perhaps in this cannibalistic farm, life would be better if he was a little uglier.

"How many women are there for sale in the village?"

"Not counting the babies, there are more than 100 people."

Hearing this number, even Xiao Mo, a grown man, felt uncomfortable.

The Hua family is truly heartless. If the Hua family had not fallen, these women would probably still be living in dire straits.

Head of Xiazhuang called all the women in the house out.

Those who are younger and better looking have better clothes on, while those who do hard labor have dark skin and haggard faces, and their cotton-padded jackets for keeping warm are in tatters.

All the women stood in the cold wind, none of them shouted or screamed. They were like roses that had lost their souls, lifeless.

Xia Zhuangtou, who was standing aside, looked very proud.

"As long as they stay at the manor for a few days, the fierce women will become obedient. We have many ways to make them obedient."

Xia Zhuangtou smiled obscenely and didn't say it very clearly, but his meaning was self-evident.

"Mr. Xia is really good at this."
