I am not sure what you mean by "S" since that is not a number, so my answer will be general. Slaves were bought because the people who owned them wanted them to do the work on their plantations. Slavery has been around for thousands of years. The Greeks, Romans, Chinese all had slaves in the ancient world. Today, about 25 million people are kept in slavery as sex slaves or in some other form. Isis even has a manual on slavery.
