Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Liu Caixia walked in front holding Liu Xiaolu's hand. There were people coming and going in the lobby, but no one came to greet them.

"Sister, why don't we change one? There are too many of them. With such good business, I'm afraid the price will be too high."

Liu Caixia knew this truth, but good shops and houses were expensive, and good business also proved that they had abundant resources.

"Let's take a look first! If you really can't find a suitable one, go look at other houses. It doesn't matter if the location of a house is not so good, but it's hard to find a shop with a good location. Let's try our luck first."

At the counter on one side, I found a waiter-like man and asked, "Young man, could you please recommend a shop and a horse-drawn carriage or a bullock cart for us?"

"Okay, wait a moment, sir. Sorry, the store is too busy right now. So, please come over here and wait for a moment. I'll go and complete the formalities for that guest and come back to serve you right away."

The waiter's attitude was quite good. He took Liu Caixia and her group to the other side where there was a round table. There were a few people sitting there and there were still a few seats left. Liu Caixia did not sit down, but stood there looking around.

There was not much furniture in the side hall. The most common items were chairs and coffee tables. There was also a large round table in the middle. It seemed that it was a place for guests to rest when there were too many guests to entertain. There were teapots and teacups on the round table. Some people poured their own tea. People at that time did not have so many rules and were very casual here.

A man asked, "Hasn't Dazhuzi's son been found yet?"

Another man: "That's right. He's been missing for seven or eight days. It's probably hard to find him."

"Hey, let me tell you, these flower-hunting guys have been too rampant recently, so you guys better be careful."

"Brother Jun, I know that the little granddaughter of the Xiong family and the little son of the Chen Ping family are both missing. They disappeared at about the same time. We have reported the case to the government. It is estimated that it was a gang crime, and they have not been found yet."

Liu Caixia listened to them talking about the human traffickers at that time and stood closer. She also wanted to understand what the human traffickers of this era were like. After all, their children were still quite young.

In addition, there was no surveillance technology and ID card information in ancient times, so it was really difficult to find lost children.

In ancient times, once a child was sold, he was really sold. Even if he was abducted and sold, it would be difficult to find him and get him back.

The little boy is fine, but the little girl's fate will be even worse.

Liu Caixia glanced at Liu Xiaolu who was also looking around, and cursed those human traffickers in her heart.

“Yes, I’ve also heard that some children have been lost in some nearby villages, but there are more children in the villages, and some families lost girls, so they chose not to report it to the police, and just let it go.

However, some families with few boys who have lost their boys will come to the government office to report. My wife heard from the Ye family's wife on the street that her husband is a member of the city defense army and has been sent here to assist in the investigation of the child trafficking case. You can imagine that they have to borrow people from the city defense army. The number of children missing must not be just a few, but dozens or even more. "

"Why hasn't the county government issued any policies yet? They should at least remind the people to be more cautious so that more children won't be abducted."

"I don't know about that, but it should be soon. Our county magistrate is not an official who doesn't care about things. Go home and take good care of your children."

"You're right. I'll go check and see if there are any puppies. I'll take one home and keep it in the yard."

The more I listen to this situation, the more complicated it seems. If so many children are really missing, it means that this group of people must be planned and organized. They may be a large human trafficking gang, and they may be involved in other places. It is impossible for people from this county to be sold to this county.

Then we need to cooperate with other places. Your people sell to me, and I sell to you. They may be quite far away, so the power of this group of people is really great, and even if they have a small number of people, they will definitely have a lot of power.

Liu Caixia listened for a while, and then the waiter came over and the two men were taken in first.

There were a lot of empty seats here, so Liu Caixia called Liu Xiaolu over and said, "Xiaolu, come and sit down."

"Oh, mother, what's wrong?"

"You guys sit down too. Did you hear what those two people just said?"

Tian Zhaodi stood relatively close, and was basically with Liu Caixia all the way. The two men stood farther away. Liu Hao said, "I only heard some things, that the children there were abducted and sold."

Tian Zhaodi nodded: "I listened to the whole thing. In fact, this kind of situation can happen everywhere. Girls like the young lady should be more careful. Girls with good looks are either sold to those masters as concubines, or sold to brothels.

If you hadn't saved my daughter Honglian, she would have ended up in the same situation. Boys are usually sold to remote mountain villages. Some families who don't have boys spend their entire lives trying to buy a son to carry on their family line. Sometimes the price is higher than those paid for girls in the city. After all, it's not easy to find a wife, and a married woman may not give birth to a son. Some families who are anxious to get a son will buy one from other places."

"Will the human traffickers sell the children to these pawnshops? The pawnshops will sell them!"

Liu Caixia wanted to understand more. After all, buying people from traffickers and then selling them was different from being sold by their families or selling themselves.

In the future, if you want to buy someone, you should buy someone with a clean background. Although the people sold by human traffickers are also pitiful, some unnecessary troubles should still be avoided.

"Yes, the human traffickers will register these people. These people are unregistered. As long as there are people willing to buy and sell, the government can't do anything to the human traffickers. After all, this is their business."

Liu Caixia nodded. Tian Zhaodi knew a lot. As expected, a man has traveled a lot and seen the world. Naturally, she also knew more than other women.

The waiter who came before came out, probably to greet them.

The waiter kept apologizing as soon as he arrived: "I'm so sorry, dear guests. I've kept you waiting for so long. I don't know why, but there are so many people here today."

Liu Caixia: "It's okay, little brother. Please recommend a house and a shop to me. We came from another place and just got our household registration. We want to buy a house if it's reasonably priced. We don't have to rent a house. The same goes for shops. If there's a suitable one, we'll buy it. If there's none, we'll rent one. Please recommend some to me."

"No problem, sir. Our company has the most houses and shops in the county. Do you have any other requirements? We have houses and shops on the four main streets, east, west, south and north, as well as other small streets. If you have other requirements, I can select them for you."

"It's best if the shop is located on a main street with a lot of traffic. It doesn't matter if it's a house. It can be located a little off the beaten track, or in a small alley near the shop.

It will be convenient for us to run a small business in the future. If there is a shop with a yard, please introduce it to us. But the price cannot be too expensive. To be honest, we don’t have much money left.”

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll screen it right away."

"It's okay, don't worry, please find us something better."

The waiter ignored them and went straight to flipping through a notebook behind the counter. He paused at a page and used his hand to support himself to continue flipping through the next page.
