A place to start possibly is "United States Freedmen's Bureau" which can be found going to FamilySearch, Catalog. Prior to 1870, do research as any other research. I will do further checking to see if I can find Bill of Sale specifically..

@larrystanleylewis1 Go to "Search". then select "Catalog", then select "Title" and type in Bill of Sales of Negro Slaves. The search will bring back No Results, but will give you the ability to alter the search with "keywords". In Keywords, type "South Carolina (Charleston District) Bill of Sale of Negro Slaves". It will then pull up the document for review.
