Chapter 503: Give me your position?

Jiang Tang turned around subconsciously, but only saw a strange carriage parked across the street.

Next to the carriage, a maid in a green shirt was talking to a father and daughter who were kneeling on the ground selling themselves.

She didn't see the person she imagined.

There was an inexplicable emotion in her heart, and she couldn't tell whether it was regret or happiness.

"If you agree, get up."

When the maid's voice came, Jiang Tang was already ready to turn around and walk into the shop.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a familiar and annoying male voice interjected from the side with sarcasm:
"Don't Boss Jiang pride himself on being kind and benevolent? When you saw a poor man selling a girl for money outside your shop, why didn't you help him?"

Looking at the slender and graceful figure in front of him, Xing Qige's painful life in the past few days automatically appeared in his mind.

If it wasn't because of this woman's complaint, how could he be so unlucky?

The shopkeeper on the side subconsciously wanted to say something, but was stopped by his boss.

Jiang Tang was not in a good mood just now, but when he turned his head again, he had a habitual smile on his face. He had a pair of wonderful eyes outside the veil, and his eyebrows were curved:

"Look at what Mr. Du Wei said. Those who don't know think that the parent officer of Huai'an Prefecture is me. Some people are selling their children on your territory, don't you think about it? You still want me, an innocent little businessman, to do this? How about saving people for you? If I save them, will you give me the position of captain?"

"you……"

Xing Qige's face changed slightly because of Jiang Tang's anger, and he subconsciously walked towards her.

It's just that before he touched anyone, he was blocked by a slender arm.

The masked young man's jaw was tense, and his black eyes held undisguised warning and intimidation.

Xing Qige squinted his eyes, and his face sank: "Do you want to do it?"

The boy on the side felt his heart skip a beat and reminded him in a low voice: "Master, calm down, master!"

The master said that you are not allowed to target Boss Jiang. If you find out again, you will not be lenient!

Xing Qige didn't pay attention at all. He locked eyes with Nan Xing and refused to give in. Seeing that the war was about to break out.

A sweet and moving female voice came from the side: "Nan Xing, let's go."

Then, he saw the ferocious young man who showed no concealment of murderous intent towards him. The moment the woman spoke, his aura suddenly dropped, and he turned around and left without any hesitation.

Be as good as a dog!

wrong!

No dog is as good as him!
Xing Qige felt angry for no reason and wanted to stop him and have a fight with him!
"Hey! Aren't you crazy? Why do you listen to a woman so much!"

However, in the face of his provocation, the young man didn't even give him a glance, let alone stop.

"Master, don't, don't, don't!" The boy hurriedly took Xing Qige's hand: "Don't you still want to pick up Miss Bai? It would be bad if you miss the time!"

Hearing the words "Miss Bai", Xing Qige's rationality returned a little, and he said coldly: "I understand. Let go!"

However, the gaze that fell on the man did not immediately retract, and his handsome face was still filled with anger.

The young man was just about to persuade him, "Let's not argue with a bodyguard," but when he followed his young master's gaze, he found that what he was looking at was clearly...

The boy's expression suddenly became a little wonderful: No, why are you...

He even felt that his young master was a bit of a bitch.

Obviously, Boss Jiang would get very angry every time he failed to say so, but he always insisted on provoking him regardless of whether he wanted to eat or not.

It really... deserves it!

"Lord Captain, I have something I don't know whether to say or not."

The shopkeeper originally wanted to follow his boss to the back to look at the fabrics, but he hesitated and wanted to finish his sentence.

"What?"

The man's cold gaze glanced over, showing not only the slightest hint of kindness.

The shopkeeper took a deep breath: "Actually, this is not the first time that the man opposite has sold his daughter."

"What?" Xing Qige finally let his eyes fall on the shopkeeper in front of him.

"What do you mean by this? If you dare to talk nonsense, this captain will not be easy to talk to!" He warned in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, I don't dare. I don't dare." The shopkeeper waved his hands repeatedly: "The man's name is Hu Asan. He likes to gamble. He is a gambler. There are three children in the family. My wife and the first two children are all due to gambling debts. The debt was sold by him, and the one he is selling now is his eldest daughter..."

This kind of thing of men selling their children and selling their daughters is very common among the people, but it belongs to the people who do not want to be promoted to official positions. According to the law, selling a wife and children only requires dozens of beatings with a cane, and does not even require jail time.

But on the other hand, if the wife goes to the government to sue her husband, she will be sent to prison.

The Governor of Xing was a good and upright official. Under his command, the Huai'an Prefecture had a good government and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but scum could not be avoided.

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Xing Qige's face turned ugly, and the boy beside him even cursed angrily.

He was sold by his gambler father to pay off debts when he was a child, but he was lucky enough to enter the governor's mansion so that he could grow up well. Even so, he suffered a lot from childhood to adulthood.

And his mother was even worse. She was given to a foreign businessman as a concubine by his father, and she would never see her again in this life.

"Damn beast! He won't even spare his own children. Why didn't God strike him to death with a thunderbolt?" The boy cursed bitterly with slightly red eyes.

"But how do you know this?"

Xing Qige calmed down his emotions and looked at the shopkeeper in front of him with doubtful eyes.

The shopkeeper gave a wry smile: "That's because Hu Asan is sick. Every time he buys a girl, he stays outside my boss's shop."

The shopkeeper reluctantly recounted the first encounter with Jiang Tang: "My boss Bingxue is smart and found that this bastard had sly eyes and didn't look like a serious and caring father, so he asked me to go and inquire about it. The result was I know this man is a gambler, and he sold his daughter not to treat his wife’s illness, but to continue gambling!”

As he said that, the shopkeeper couldn't help but said "poof". At this moment, a maidservant's slightly raised voice came from the opposite side: "100 taels? What are you talking about in your sleep!"

The three of them subconsciously looked over and saw the man licking his face and saying pitifully: "Your noble heart is kind, please have mercy on me. I only have this one daughter. Her mother's illness really can't be delayed any longer. . If I didn’t have money, how could I sell my own flesh and blood? Please add more, I am such a young girl, 20 taels... is really too little!"

As he spoke, he pulled his daughter to kneel down and asked her to kowtow to him together.

The originally aloof maid frowned and wanted to refute, but she couldn't resist the help of someone beside her.

One after another, they were generous to others and asked them to add some money.

"Asshole!" the boy yelled angrily, eager to rush over and expose the man's true face.

"And then? How did your boss do it?" Xing Qige turned around and looked at the shopkeeper with piercing eyes.

"Hehehehe," the shopkeeper laughed when he mentioned this: "My boss said, 'A good man will always do his best.' He bought out his daughter for 20 taels, but he can ask a doctor to treat his wife."

"But didn't you say that his wife has been sold by him?" The boy couldn't help arranging flowers.

"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded: "So when he saw that he couldn't get any money, he wanted to regret it and said he wouldn't sell it. But my boss is not someone who can be bullied. He can just let the guards stand in front of him..."

The shopkeeper boasted about Jiang Tang's "heroic deeds" and his eloquence, which made the other boys beside him blush. "My boss is a kind-hearted person. When he sees a beggar who is hungry, he will buy him clothes and give him food, let alone a little girl of how old he is? After she bought the beggar, he sent him to a nursery and did not accept him as a child. servant,"

As soon as he said this, even Xing Qige showed a surprised expression.

"Not taken as a slave?"

The shopkeeper nodded: "My master said that she has no shortage of slaves. The child is still young. It would be really pitiful to be reduced to a lowly status. The purpose of signing the sale contract is to get her away from that scumbag father."

Xing Qige opened his mouth slightly, and indescribable emotions welled up in his heart. However, the boy beside him was more direct:

"Boss Jiang is such a good person. He is really doing it for the little girl's benefit!"

This time, Xing Qige did not refute.

At this moment, the maid's voice came from behind:

"Maximum 30 taels! No more!"

"But you are a noble person, my daughter..."

"My lady doesn't want your daughter. The 30 taels are for your wife's medical treatment." The maid frowned with undisguised disgust in her eyes: "Take the money and take your daughter back quickly!"

"Don't want my daughter?"

After being puzzled, the man showed an expression of surprise, as if he was afraid that the people in the carriage would regret it, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

"Isn't this letting the tiger return to the mountain!"

The boy said subconsciously.

Now that we know what kind of virtue this person is, if we put the girl back, wouldn't we be pushing her into a pit of fire again?
"Xiao Min, I still have something to do, please leave now."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, the shopkeeper took the opportunity to leave.

Hearing his voice, Xing Qige turned around. The place just now was empty, and there was no sign of that person anywhere.

So...he really misunderstood her?
"wrong!"

"What's wrong?" The young man was startled by his young master's sudden voice.

"Since she knew that man was a bastard, why didn't she save him this time?" Xing Qige stared at the boy and asked, "He's not lying to me, is he?"

The boy was stunned: "Ah?" What? -
"boss."

"You came just in time. I have seen these fabrics. They are well made." As soon as the shopkeeper came in, Jiang Tang waved him over.

Cheap but sturdy, just what she wanted.

After receiving Jiang Tang's praise, the shopkeeper's smile widened: "That's right. As long as you're satisfied, boss."

Jiang Tang walked a few more steps into the shelf and stopped: "Next, do the waterproofing treatment as I said before, and then send it to the designated warehouse for storage."

"Yes."

The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly. He subconsciously wanted to tell Jiang Tang what happened outside just now.But looking at the serious look in the girl's eyes, he swallowed it silently.

The boss doesn't like the captain so much, so if he does, it's better not to say anything.

Jiang Tang didn't know what the other person was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

The system cannot interfere with the original plot, but she can exchange points for future flood routes and relatively safe places around them.

It's just that once the place is available, it still takes a little time and... power to make all the arrangements.

At this time, it would be great if there was a powerful person who could tell the truth and carry out her plan boldly.

Thinking of this, the girl relaxed her brows and frowned again.

Jiang Tang thought about it, and his attention drifted away again unconsciously.

"You, Mr. Peng, chatter so much, why are you so quiet today?"

She thought of something and suddenly said to the system: "The heroine has appeared, where is he? What is he doing?"

I just never thought that the system, which usually wanted to say a sentence three times, didn't answer her today.

Jiang Tang then asked again: "System? Did you hear me?"

The result was still quiet, she suddenly had a bad feeling and her voice became colder;
"System, you're not causing trouble again, are you?"

"what happened?"

Nan Xing, who had been watching the girl, noticed that something was wrong with her mood and couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Tang raised his eyes and looked over, with the wariness and uneasiness in his eyes that had not completely dissipated.

"No, nothing."

So, is the dog system doing bad things behind her back again?
-
Bai Muzhi was a little unhappy.

She was a little happy when she learned that Xiao Yinhan was not riding a horse and would ride a carriage into the city with her.

These days, she was always disturbed by various reasons that prevented her from talking to him properly.

If we ride in the same carriage this time, there won’t be any problems, right?
As a result, she never expected that the man would sleep with his eyes closed as soon as he got in the car and ignore him at all.

In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that their relationship is still the same as before, but only she knows that it is different...

But before she could figure out what was going on, as soon as he entered the city, he suddenly left by himself, leaving her alone in a carriage to the predetermined location.

On the way, she met a man who bought a girl to save his life. As before, he was kind-hearted and asked the maid to spend money to save people. Just when everyone was praising and admiring her, the shameless man went even further and asked for 100 taels.

100 two!

How dare he scream!
However, all the people around her seemed to have no brains, and they actually followed her and asked her to give her money.

Does she look so much like someone who was taken advantage of?
100 taels can buy a shop in the suburbs of Beijing, and a little girl in this remote place...

"Miss, don't be angry. There are unscrupulous people in remote areas, and we are not as familiar with them!"

The maid persuaded her and gently rubbed her chest.

Bai Muzhi shook his head: "I don't feel bad about the money. I just don't like greedy people."

The maid showed moved eyes: "Miss, you are so kind. Those people are simply... ah!"

Before the maid could finish her words, the carriage that was going forward suddenly stopped, and her head hurt from the bumps: "How do you drive? Miss, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Let's go see what's wrong?" As soon as Bai Muzhi finished speaking, he heard a plaintive female voice coming from outside: "My lord, your lord, please save me! Please take me with you!"

"Master, look, is that the girl who was bought just now?"

The boy - Xing Liu pointed at the girl blocking the carriage and said excitedly: "It seems to be the carriage that rescued people just now. The girl is saved."
