Chapter 10 Herb Garden

"Brother, where is the godfather?" Wei Nuo asked Chen Youyi.

"The shopkeeper went out earlier and should be in the study now."

"Okay, I'll go find him. I'm going to have to work hard for you these days."

I just bought it and haven’t been taught the rules yet.

These days, no matter whether it is a shop or a house, Chen Youyi is responsible for all the big and small things.

"That's right. The shopkeeper not only helped me drive away my father and bury my grandfather, but he was also willing to take me in. These are all things I should do."

Chen You smiled shyly and ran to the servants again.

Wei Nian walked into the study and saw Wei Lin with a solemn expression.

"what happened?"

"I just went to make some inquiries. That tooth shop is a serious place for business, but it's next door."

"The name next door is Herb Garden, which is quite famous in this town."

"There are people who specialize in training young shepherds. They buy or abduct young children. They have many methods to train people to serve others."

"A few years ago, a boy's parents came to him and reported it to the police, but he disappeared that night and the county magistrate ignored him."

"When I went to buy a buyer that day, the shopkeeper of Yahang vaguely mentioned that he had branches all over the country."

"I think Herb Garden has a lot to do with Yaxing. I'm afraid there's a lot of power behind it."

Fortunately, there was no major conflict that day, otherwise no matter how strong Wei Lin was, he would not be able to protect this large family.

"It seems that Lingrong has taken a liking to you. You should deal with it first. We need to expand our business as soon as possible and then move out as soon as possible."

It feels really frustrating to have a trafficker right under my nose and yet not be able to control him.

That Wei Rong might have been trafficked too, how pitiful!

"Let's focus on the shop these days. You can also ask around if there is a good academy in the county or prefecture, and send Wei Rong and Zhao Ming there."

The school that Wei Zhaoming attends now doesn't teach much, and the teacher is also lax.

It's a pity that Wei Zhaoming has such a gift of photographic memory.

"Okay, then Wei Rong is that boy?"

"Yes, I'm only 12 years old, so I have enough time to study."

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out."

"Then I'll go arrange the servants with Yuichi first."

Wei Tui followed without incident. After a night's rest, those who bought it felt much better.

At this time, they were standing in a row respectfully.

Wei Lin chose a couple and brought a pair of children.

The man's name is Qian Youlai, and the woman's name is Qian Tie'er.

The two are cousins, and they used to work in a small official's family.

The petty official was implicated in the corruption of his boss and released all his servants before being exiled.

However, due to the war on the border, it is difficult for ordinary people to survive, and this is why they have fallen to this point.

Qian Tie'er was the housekeeper before Qian You came, and Qian Tie'er was responsible for the purchases.

Wei Lin then left them at home, one as the housekeeper and the other in charge of the kitchen.

Their two children were only six or seven years old. When Wei Linwen asked questions, they hid behind and did not dare to raise their heads.

Still Qian You replied, his son's name was Qian Lang and his daughter's name was Qian Qing.

Because I am still young, I don’t arrange things to do.

Wei Lin selected two other young men to be responsible for guarding and cleaning the house.

Chen Youyi hit it off with a young boy yesterday.

The young man's name was Dou'er, and he was originally a beggar.

He sold himself to bury the old beggar who took him in.

Chen Youyi asked Wei Lin to leave Dou'er in the shop to keep him company.

The reason for this was that Dou'er had been hungry since he was a child and was beaten and kicked when he was growing up.

My health is very bad, and going to Zhuangzi won't help much.

There were still twelve people left, and they all looked young and strong, so they were all sent to Zhuangzi.

The selection was interrupted that day, and Wei Lincai only picked men.

Qian Tie'er and Qian Qing bought it by the way because they were in the same family as Qian Youlai.

I haven’t had time to pick out some smart girls yet.

However, Wei Lin and Wei Tui didn't dare to go to Yaxing again to pick.

We can only wait until the business develops and see if there are other dental shops.

After everyone was assigned, Wei Lin began to discuss the treatment.

"From today on, the housekeeper's monthly payment is one tael of silver, the rest of the family members' monthly payment is [-] silver, the people in the village are [-] silver, and the store's monthly payment is [-] silver."

Everyone was surprised, this treatment was very generous.

"I'm not someone who treats my servants harshly. If you work hard, your monthly salary will increase in the future."

"I don't want to choose the people in Zhuangzi who are in charge of things. I want to inspect them for a while first."

The twelve young men were all gearing up.

Those who can manage things in other villages are either related to the master's family or have seniority.How can it be the newcomer's turn?

Besides, everyone comes from poverty and is a good farmer.

"However, if anyone betrays his master or fishes in troubled waters by taking advantage of others privately, I will not sell them here, but will directly kill them!"

Everyone quickly knelt down and said they didn't dare.

Without further ado, Wei Lin took out five taels of silver and gave them to the twelve young men.

Let them prepare their own food and go to Zhuangzi to repair the houses and fertilize the fields before planting seeds.

"There is no steward now, but the Zhuangzi is not far outside the town. If you need anything, you can go directly to the steward Qian."

"Yes!" 12 people responded in unison and retreated.

Qian Youlai and his family were still kneeling beside them and did not get up.

"The mansion needs repairs, and there is a lot of money to spend."

"Take these 100 taels first, and keep a good account book."

Butler Qian kowtowed and said yes, feeling deeply moved in his heart.

I thought that my family would definitely separate, but I didn't expect that the owner would be willing to buy it together.

I didn't start from the lowest level as a servant, I still worked as a housekeeper as before.

Even his children and his wife are willing to stay in the house and eat free meals.

Now I was directly given 100 taels of silver for my own use.

You must do your best and serve your good master with your family!

"Go down first, and your two sons and daughters will accompany my adopted daughter as playmates. How about a hundred coins a month?"

"Yes! Thank you, sir."

Butler Qian burst into tears of gratitude. The master was actually willing to give monthly money to his two children!
"In a few days, I will officially recognize Niu'er as my adopted daughter. You first prepare gifts and go visit Niu'er's parents together."

"Yes." Butler Qian retreated with his family and two boys.

After arranging everyone's whereabouts, Douer also went to live in the shop with Chen Youyi.

The house suddenly became deserted.

Wei Tuan was bored, so he started practicing the martial arts secrets he just bought.

Produced by the system, it must be a boutique!
The guard twist has a physical bonus, although it is quite easy to practice.

But I can also feel the profoundness of this martial arts secret book.

"Miss, you are good at martial arts!"

Wei Twisted stopped what he was doing and found Wei Rong standing in the corridor next to him.

Before he could buy any clothes, he was wearing what Chen Youyi had given him.

Although Wei Rong is only 12 years old, he has a slender figure.

Chen Youyi's clothes were only a little baggy.

"Why are you out? You're only wearing your coat. What should you do if you catch a cold?"

Wei Nui touched Wei Rong's hand, and it was indeed very cold.

Such a big boy, it really doesn’t make people worry!

"I can move around now, but I haven't seen anyone for a long time. Let's go out and look for him."

Wei Rong coughed a few times and leaned against a pillar nearby.

"Go back quickly and come out after you recover."

Wei Twisted helped Wei Rong back to the room.

Wei's twist only reached Wei Rong's chest, but he was able to hold her up very easily.

Alas, still too thin.

Doesn’t the herb garden allow people to eat?

Wei Tuo helped Wei Rong to the bed and tucked in the quilt.

"How about I teach you martial arts after you recover? You are too thin."

Wei Nuo looked at Wei Rong's beautiful face and sighed softly.

With such beauty, what will she do in the future if she doesn’t have martial arts at her side?
"My mother said that to be liked by others, we have to be weak and help the wind, so we are only allowed to have one meal every three days."

"Is mom Lingrong?" Wei Tuo asked.

This is too vicious. He only eats one meal every three days, so it's hard for him to still be alive.

"Yes, mother said that we are born to serve others and must obey all orders."

Wei Rong seemed to think of something and winced.

"If you want me to practice martial arts, then I will practice martial arts."

"Wei Rong, listen, don't call her mother in the future, she is just a personal trafficker."

"You are a human being! You have to live for yourself and don't care what others do?"

"As long as you are happy in this world, it is enough. No one is born to serve others."

"If you don't like it, then refuse. No one can force you."

Wei Rong's eyes flashed with light, and after a long while he said in a firm tone:
"I want to practice martial arts!"
