Chapter 654: Combating Human Traffickers (Please subscribe!)

As for the remaining members of Hong Lei's party, they were uprooted.

Let’s all go to Australia to mine.

No, Australia is now called Abbot Province.

This is not what the abbot monk meant.

But it has an allusion.

Three Islands and Ten Continents is the name of the fairyland in Chinese mythology. The Three Islands and Ten Continents are all the places where immortals live.

The three islands are: Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. They are mountains where gods live. They are called Three Islands, also known as Sanxian Mountain, or Three Hus.

"Historical Records·Fengchan Book" records, "Since Wei Xuan, Yan Zhao sent people into the sea to seek Penglai, abbot, and the three sacred mountains of Yingzhou. It was said that they were in the Bohai Sea. They were not far away. If trouble came, the wind would carry them away."

, If it comes to it, all the immortals and the elixir of immortality will be there."

Therefore, the name "Abbott Province" is a very elegant one.

Fang Congyun's incident in the Huangji Palace made Zhu Kezang think about combating human trafficking.

In fact, Fang Congyun was a bit lucky. At least he was in good health and was sold. Many traffickers directly use abducted children as a means of livelihood, which is commonly known as "harvesting and cutting."

"Cai" refers to the process of human traffickers searching for and abducting targets from the society; "Sheng" refers to children who are growing normally, that is to say, the targets of abduction are usually children under ten years old; "Caizhe" refers to children under the age of ten.

It refers to their behavior of using various cruel methods to injure the abducted children until they become disabled.

The combined meaning is: abduct healthy children and then use cruel methods to turn them into disabled people.

Therefore, these little beggars either have their hands and feet cut off, or they are blind and cannot even see. They look as miserable as possible.

People passing by thought they were so pitiful for their young age and would usually throw a few pennies to them so that they would not starve to death.

Whenever the person giving alms leaves, the traffickers hiding in the dark will take away the money that originally belonged to the beggars and let them continue begging.

In this way, the originally small children lost their original happy life because of the rampage of human traffickers, and became a money-making tool in the hands of human traffickers.

"Qingyi Leichao" once recorded: "There was a beggar in Huqiu, Suzhou who took a bear out on the street. He could not speak but could write and recite poems. For a time, countless onlookers gave money to watch."

It means that a monster appeared in Suzhou. This monster can speak human language, but walks like a dog, and its whole body is covered with dog hair.

The most important thing is that this monster has an owner. His owner ties him up with a rope and drags him to the city to perform.

People were very scared when they first saw this monster. Only a few brave people ran to the monster and watched its performance.

Soon, rumors of "monsters appearing in downtown areas" reached the ears of the local county magistrate.

The county magistrate has a different way of thinking than ordinary people. He felt that there must be something fishy about this matter and decided to investigate it clearly.

After investigation, the county magistrate finally figured out what happened.

It turns out that this monster was man-made.

The monster was originally just an ordinary person who was captured by human traffickers when he was very young.

In order to make money, the traffickers peeled off all the skin on the person, and then put the dog skin on his body. When the wounds on his body healed, he would naturally be covered with dog hair.

In addition, the traffickers also locked him up with dogs and forced him to learn the unique skills of dogs every day, which is what people saw.

Although the official position of the county magistrate is not high, he is still regarded as a parent official by people, so naturally he cannot leave it alone.

In order to dig out more shady stories, the county magistrate continued to conduct in-depth investigations and finally discovered that this was a gang specializing in human trafficking.

This group of people also has a group of children in their hands. Some of them have been turned into money-making tools for begging through cruel means, and some of them have not had time to deal with them.

According to the traffickers, they abduct many targets and sell the ones that are wanted. The better-looking they are, the higher the price they can sell them for.

Some good-looking girls were bought by brothels, while ordinary-looking girls were sold to wealthy families as maids or child brides.

The development of the incident has exceeded the scope of the county magistrate's responsibility. Therefore, the county magistrate reported the case step by step.

According to the law, these human traffickers were eventually executed, but the damage could never be undone, especially that monster, which would never be able to be a human again and could only live in this humiliating way for the rest of its life.

In fact, the tragedy of Fang Congyun began with human trafficking.

If there had been no abduction, he would have lived in a good family, grown up step by step, and become a pillar of the country.

Zhu Kezang sighed and decided to do something.

The next day, Zhu Kezang issued an imperial edict to the whole country. The first was: Anyone who abducts children and women from the Ming Dynasty will be shot! Those who engage in childbirth and mutilation are to deliberately maim children from the Ming Dynasty and use them to beg. No matter how many, they will be sentenced to "Ling Chi"

”.

In ancient times, children were the productive forces and the hope of the country. Women had the important responsibilities of textiles and childbirth, and they were also the barrier to the country's peace and prosperity. Zhu Kezang could not sit back and watch the abduction and trafficking of children and women continue to spread.

Of course, because the new Ming Dynasty can legally own foreign slaves, the abduction and trafficking of foreign people will not be ignored by the Ming Dynasty.

This means that you, the human traffickers, cannot do bad things within the Ming Dynasty, but you can go and do it outside the Ming Dynasty!

Then the imperial edict spread throughout the Ming Dynasty through Huangming Daily. At first, the people of the Ming Dynasty felt that the punishment was a bit too severe, but soon a model play appeared, adapting the Suzhou story of "Qing Bailei Chao", which completely angered Ying Tianfu.

All the people.

Because this kind of behavior is really outrageous to both humans and gods. You would never have thought that a person would do such an animal thing!

So on the day of the performance of the model play, the actor who played the role of a trafficker was hit with a piece of silver, followed by countless coins on the stage.

If the security personnel hadn't stopped him, those people would have rushed onto the stage and beat the actor to death.

The actor who played the role of a human trafficker was so frightened that he never dared to act again, and was clamoring to replace him, but who would dare to take this job?

I could only comfort him with all my heart, saying that I would definitely step up my efforts to protect him. This made the actor feel at ease, and he performed a few more shows, and then it became a big hit. The model show was just like this in the Grand Ming Fire.

Got up.

Coupled with the story of Pan Boheng, the No. 1 scholar, and Fang Congyun, it made people even more sad.

It also aroused the common people's hatred for human traffickers. Where the government imprisoned those traffickers, people threw feces every day, and the government officials were going crazy. Who could stand this!

The people of Yingtian hated human traffickers deeply, but the Yingtian Yamen suffered disaster.

I haven’t explained it yet!

What do you mean by this? Yin Shao Tingcai of Yingtian Prefecture was speechless. It would have been better if he had thrown the traffickers to the Ministry of Punishment!
