Chapter 197
At this time, in recent years, the business of toothshop is not good. Cai Wulang, the man named Cai Wulang, is also happy when he sees the business coming. He pleasantly invites them to his home and introduces them all the time.
Lian Fangzhou has no one to listen to, for this kind of people, she still has an instinctive antipathy.
"I don't know what kind of person Mr. Jane and miss Lian want to buy? It's not me. I have everything you want! " Cai Wulang clapped his chest to promise.
Jane said with a smile, "can we have a look at everyone?" As he said, he handed over a piece of silver with three or four coins. "Thank you!"
Cai Wulang saw that they were not big people in the city or rich people and gentry members in the town. He was not very happy to hear ah Jian's request. But before he could say what he didn't want to say, he shoved her hand into the silver. He pinched the weight with his hand and was satisfied. He swallowed what he didn't want, nodded and laughed ! Just a moment, I'll call all of you! "
There are two people in Yuhe county. Cai Wulang is the largest. He has three apprentices to help him. The population in hand is also the largest.
Not long ago, Lian Fangzhou and so on heard the sound of a disorderly footsteps in the outer yard. Looking out, he could see that there were about thirty or forty different people standing in the yard. All men and women were dressed in Indigo clothes that were washed white, and their heads hung down, slightly bleak.
After a while, Cai Wulang came in and asked with a smile, "don't you know what Jane and miss Lian do when they buy someone to go back? It happened that I just came here two days ago. There are men and women here. They are smart and capable, whether they are little boys or girls! "
Lian Fangzhou and a Jian looked at each other and said with a smile, "our country people don't need any servant girls. We are short of land! If there is a suitable one, I will choose more than ten to go. If there is no one I agree with, I will have to forget! "
"That's it!" Cai Wulang nodded, then smiled again and said: "as long as there is strength, the simple work of farming can be done by anyone! I'll call in people to show you. I'll call five or six at a time. What do you think? "
"Call me!" Lian Fangzhou smiles.
Cai Wulang "ah" a, then get up to go out to the outside of the apprentice waved a command, still come back to sit and smile with each other.
After a while, another apprentice of CAI Wulang led five or six people to come in line. He arranged them in high and low order in the hall. His hands were lowered and his eyes were lowered. It was very regular.
"Mr. Jane, even miss, these young men are all in their twenties. How do you think of their strong bodies and heavy work?" Cai Wulang smiled, glanced at those people, and whispered, "raise your head! Keep your mind up! "
Lian Fangzhou and a Jian didn't say anything. Lian Fangzhou turned to Qin Feng and Su Ziji and said with a smile, "go and have a look. It's not suitable."
Qin Feng and Su Ziji agreed to go forward.
Cai Wulang frowned a little, but said nothing.
Qin Feng and Su Ziji circled around the people and asked, "what did you do before?" "How long has it been done?" Yunyun asked them to stretch out their hands and look, then they went back.
Cai Wulang asked with a smile: "how is it? Are they all good? "
Qin Feng glanced at Lian Fangzhou and said with a smile, "yes, but it's not suitable for farming."
Cai Wulang said "Oh" and sighed: "well, let's see the next batch! In fact, you pay too much attention to it. As long as you are in good health, there is no one who is not suitable for farming... "
If it's not for the reward money, and they buy a dozen people, Cai Wulang is a little impatient.
Qin Feng and Su Ziji didn't directly respond to his words. They laughed and said that they would choose carefully.
Just now, two eyes of those six people have been turning around. At first sight, they are not loyal. How can they get them? The remaining three, one is a porter, one is a runner, the porter is too lazy, the runner is easy to move, and it's not suitable. There is also a hand too thin, I'm afraid it can't do farm work without a few Jin of strength!
Qin Feng will not pick their reasons slowly said again, Cai Wulang secretly surprised, no longer what to say.
After about an hour, I picked all the people in the first courtyard, and finally Qin Feng and Su Ziji picked out 15 suitable people. Lian Fangzhou said that if there were only twelve, they would pick out three more.
However, with only twelve, Cai Wulang was also very happy.
After that, he chose a family of four, a couple of 367 with one son, one daughter and two children. The man's name is Zhang Xiaojun, and the woman is Li Sumei. His daughter is about the same size as Lian Fangzhou, and her son is two years older than Lian Che, and his name is Zhang Liang.
This family can do some housework such as cleaning the yard, cooking and so on, otherwise the problem of twelve workers' eating is not easy to solve. I can't let my third aunt do it every day.
Cai Wulang is in a good mood. He can save a lot of rations by sending out these people at once. The price he offered to Lian Fangzhou is also fair. It's mainly because Qin Feng and Su Ziji are so keen on choosing people that he has no foundation in his heart and dare not ask for prices all over the world.
The final transaction price is eight Liang silver for twelve people, and three thirteen Liang for four people in that family - as long as it's Zhang Xiuer, it's worth fourteen Liang.
Looking at Zhang Xiuer's beautiful face, white skin and slim figure, Lian Fangzhou secretly scolds Cai Wulang for his dark heart. He doesn't need to ask what he is thinking.
Zhang Xiuer's mother, Li Shi, and father, Zhang Xiaojun, were so nervous that they turned white that they were afraid that even Fangzhou would not want Zhang Xiuer.
Hearing Lian Fangzhou's nod, the couple and Zhang Xiuer both heaved their voices. Li's low "ah" voice fell to the ground. He could not stand up and struggled to knock his head against Lian Fangzhou, saying: "thank you, miss! Thank you for your kindness! " But Lian Fangzhou felt sad.
When the buyer came out, it was already in the middle of Shenshi. Lian Fangzhou asked Qin Feng and Su Ziji to lead the staff to the tea shop at the gate of the city to wait. He and Lian Ze and a Jian also asked Li Shi and Zhang Xiu'er to buy and settle down their daily necessities.
Clothes, shoes, socks, blankets and so on, as well as buckets and pots and so on, should be prepared. Otherwise, how are these people going to live? Coming out of the human teeth gate, I have nothing but my clothes, but nothing!
There are pots and pans, oil, salt, soy, vinegar, grain, rice and noodles to be bought together. It's too late tonight. I'll buy some steamed bread and cakes from the street for dinner. Tomorrow, Li's breakfast will be made!
These things are trivial. There are many kinds of forest. I have two more people to help me. It took me a lot of time to buy them all.
The donkey cart brought by my family couldn't be loaded at all. Even Fangzhou hired two more donkey carts, which was barely loaded.
