Chapter 365 Buying Someone ([-])

"Bah, bah, this girl, who is celebrating Chinese New Year, what are you talking about?" Granny Liu became a little anxious when she heard that Sister Yu was alive and dead.

"Okay, I don't shy away from this, you can talk about other people." Qingzhu waved his hand, stopped Granny Liu from nodding and bowing, and said.

"Yes." Mrs. Liu hurriedly pulled other people over to introduce them.

About halfway through the introduction of this person, Mrs. Liu directly pulled four people over, smiled at Qingzhu, opened her mouth and introduced: "Medical Officer Xia, these four belong to a family. The servants of the family were sold out because something happened."

In this day and age, ordinary servants are rarely sold out of the mansion, and when they are sold, most of them are bought to those dirty places.Generally speaking, there are several situations where selling the mansion without buying the kind of low-end people is nothing more than a few situations. One is that the mansion is really in decline and cannot afford to support so many servants, so some people have to be sold out.There is another kind, that is, the servant committed a crime, but it was not serious, it just aroused the taboo of the master's family, and all had to be sold.

And there is another kind, that is the infighting in the inner courtyard of the house. The masters rarely get hurt, but this kind of people are easy to suffer.

"Tell me what the original owner's business is? What happened to sell him out? Don't be vague." After seeing so many people, Qingzhu gradually got used to it. The prostitute and the four prostituted servants asked questions.

The man of that family quickly replied: "Yes, the younger one's surname is Liu, and his name is Liu Cheng. He is the companion of the first wife of the second master of the Zhong family who is in the silk business in Xinghuafang. He manages a dowry shop for the first wife. My mother-in-law works in the kitchen of the Zhong family's mansion. My wife passed away three years ago, leaving only one daughter."

"Last year, the second master of Qiu Zhong's family married a new wife. Because we refused to surrender to the new wife, the new wife rejected us, so she found the fault of my mother-in-law, saying that she ate the food from the master's house in private, and that I Dirty the money on the account, took our private property, and sent us out."

"Originally, we were going to sell us far away. It was the eldest lady left behind by the previous lady who pleaded for us in front of the old lady. Then she found Sister-in-law Liu and asked her to sell us. Sister-in-law Liu Kindness, that brought us here to you."

"Oh, so that's the case. Then did you do those things?" Qing Zhu nodded and asked again.

Liu Cheng also said: "Back to Doctor Xia's words, it is true that my mother-in-law ate the food from the master's house, but it was all leftover food from the master's house, and it was not eaten in private. It was just shared by the people in the kitchen. , It has always been such a rule, and we have not violated it. As for the small ones polluting the silver in the shop, the conscience of heaven and earth, the small ones have always been conscientious, only take what should be taken, and what should not be taken, the small one I really didn't get half a point."

"En." Qingzhu nodded slightly after hearing the words, and called Liu Cheng's son and daughter to him, and then let Granny Liu continue to introduce others.

Granny Liu began to introduce other people. At the end of the introduction, it was a man who looked quite honest, but a shrewd man flashed in his eyes from time to time, but he also brought a blind old woman with him.

Granny Liu pointed at the man and said, "Doctor Xia, this man's name is Wang Zhong. He is from Shangjing City. He lives in Xiaxi City. He has studied in a private school for a few years. He helped others run goods outside. Later, his deaf old lady went blind. , He started a small business by himself again, and the family was doing well. No, he also pooled money, partnered with others, and found someone to sell goods."

"It's a pity that after this battle, his goods were in vain, and he owed a lot of money for the goods. After buying all the things in the house, he was still short of money, and he had a blind and deaf old lady to take care of. In front of his wife, he said that he would sell himself."

After speaking, Mrs. Liu was a little embarrassed, and said: "The women don't dare to buy him, because he asks for a higher price than others, and he has to bring a deaf and blind old lady with him, so the women just help lead the thread. The first woman also found many people, but none of them were willing to buy him. This is also because there is no way out, so I brought you here."

"How much money do you want?" Qing Zhu looked at Wang Zhong and asked.

"Returning to Medical Officer Xia, the young one is with the young old lady, and the price is 35 taels of silver." Wang Zhong said this, feeling a little embarrassed.After all, 35 taels of silver is not a small amount. With this money, you can buy a few good girls.

Among other things, Liu Cheng's family sold it to Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu's total asking price was only 30 taels of silver.Big Sister Yu is even cheaper. For such a big person, it only costs five taels.

But he took a deaf and blind old lady who couldn't do anything and had to be taken care of, and dared to ask for 35 taels of silver.

Therefore, Wang Zhong immediately added: "There is really no way. The young one is outside and owes so many foreign debts. It's the end of the year, and I have to pay it back. As for the young lady, the young one has been dependent on her since she was a child." , if it wasn't for the fear that my old lady would be left unattended, the young one would go to someone else to sell the goods, and I could earn back the money I owed, so..."

Wang Zhong said, rubbing his hands, and said: "Don't worry, as long as you buy the little one and the little old lady together, the little one's life will be yours. As long as the little old lady can be good, then Go up the mountain of knives, go down to the pan of oil, make a small guarantee, without blinking your eyes, whatever you say, that’s what it is.”

Qingzhu asked Wang Zhong, but didn't say anything, thought for a while, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Well, you take them first, step aside, let me think about it."

"Yes." Granny Liu naturally led the people back.

After Granny Liu withdrew, Qingzhu was in a bit of trouble.

In fact, the people brought by Mrs. Liu, except for Yu Damei, Liu Cheng's family, and Wang Zhong and his wife, were all fine.But this is no problem compared to other big families who often buy people. For Qingzhu, it is a very big problem.

Because when other people buy people, they usually buy them and let other servants in the mansion take them with them, and slowly start to do other things, but Qingzhu's family bought people for the first time. , it must be available immediately.

But Mrs. Liu's people, except for Liu Cheng, his mother-in-law and Wang Zhong who can take care of themselves, the others can't afford anything and have to be trained slowly.

That one was called Wang Zhong, although he was able to support things, but one could tell at a glance that he was calling to find a family to help him take care of his old mother.
