异常频繁的自然灾害、沉重的徭役赋税、儿童奴隶的盛行、典雇恶习等因素,导致元代儿童买卖猖獗。跨国跨境,贩于江南、卖于江北,全境普遍兴盛是元代儿童买卖的重要特点。元政府将买卖儿童行为定性为违法犯罪,鼓励检举揭发,严禁官员受财纵容买卖儿童,同时积极收养和赎买被卖儿童。 Frequent natural disasters, heavy taxation of military service, prevalence of child slaves, abuse of employment and other factors led to the rampant sale of children in the Yuan Dynasty. Cross-border cross-border trade, trafficking in the Jiangnan, sold in Jiangbei, the general prosperity of the whole territory is an important feature of the sale of children in the Yuan Dynasty. The yuan government criminalized the sale of children as crimes and encouraged the prosecution to expose and expose officials to buying or selling children by money, while actively adopting and redeeming children who were sold.
