chapter 11

After Ruan Bai went out, he didn't relax his vigilance, but made a lot of words to the two villagers.

She was very careful, just curiously asked a couple of things about the little mermaid in the pond, and then mentioned the mermaid grandmother. She didn't go into the depths for a bit and learned a lot of information smoothly.

First of all, the existence of mermaid did appear in their village a long time ago. At that time, everyone thought that the birth of mermaid was a good omen and would bring happiness and harvest to the village. The statue of mermaid grandmother was established because of this. of.

It's just that the times have changed. Today, most people no longer believe in gods and Buddhas, let alone treat those mermaids who can't work and can only eat rice at home.

By chance, they discovered that such a deformed person is very valuable. After summing up, the villagers decided to sell the mermaid privately.

For villages like theirs, human trafficking is very common, and the villagers do not have much resistance, and even take it for granted.

"We have worked so hard to grow food for a year, and we can sell it for up to 3,000 yuan, but a mermaid can sell for millions," the villager said. "In this society, where is no need for money? You need money for marriage and money for raising children. We need money for a house and money for a car. If we don't do this, we can't even afford clothes."

They think that Ruan Bai was sold before, and they have no scruples when talking about them, and they are very straightforward.

Ruan Bai: "..."

It seems that the setting of this game is quite grounded...

"Now that you have money, have you ever thought about buying a house in the city and moving out from this remote place?" Ruan Bai asked, "In this way, children can also receive a better education, go to university, and don't need to farm at home."

She couldn't agree with the villagers' words. In her opinion, they have been fascinated by the profiteering, and they only complain about the environment, but never think about how to improve their lives by themselves.

"It's light, but it's actually so easy." A villager shook his head. "We are illiterate and the registered permanent residence is here. What's the use of moving out? Even if you marry a foreigner and give birth to a child, If you don't have the shelter of the mermaid grandmother, you still have to come back to save your life..."

At the end, he noticed something and quickly stopped.

Save your life?

Ruan Bai's fingers trembled slightly when he heard the words.

She thought that she finally found something that made her feel that something was wrong.

It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Even if the outside expenditure is high, even if the outside expenditure is high, who would be happy to return to a poor and closed village after going to a city developed in the era of high information?

It is not impossible to choose some more remote villages and towns to settle down. It is not only convenient, but also cheap.

A mermaid can be sold so expensive, they are a little bit tighter and can live well.

However, what if they do not want to leave, but can't leave?

Ruan Bai felt that she could already guess what he wanted to say.

All these stories finally formed a stable and clear concept in her brain——

Not surprisingly, the number of women in this village has begun to decrease rapidly, and in the past few years, I am afraid that no mermaid will be born again.
