During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.

So I plan to open a grocery store in Qucheng.

The grocery store is different from Baibao Pavilion.

To put it bluntly, most of the things that Baibao Pavilion sells are idle but somewhat useful.

And the grocery store she plans to open is different from other stores.

She had previously presented a threshing machine to the emperor, and now she planned to donate a few more things useful for farming.

After donating it, she planned to produce it herself and sell it in the grocery store.

To make money, you must make money.

She also plans to bring out everything related to farming.

Some fertilizers and these should also be taken out.

After Shen Qianning figured it out, he started looking for a store in Qucheng.

It’s really hard to find stores in Qucheng.

Because Magistrate Sun is an honest official, the business environment in Qucheng is very good.

Naturally, there are many people doing business in Qucheng. The people of Qucheng are living better, and the business environment will naturally be better.

As a result, it is really difficult to rent shops in Qucheng.

Yaozi helped Shen Qianning search for two days but couldn't find the right one.

He also said with some helplessness: "Boss Shen, you have also seen that it is too difficult to rent a shop. You can try buying a shop."

Buying a store is a good idea!

Shen Qianning thought of the store in Baibao Pavilion.

I understand.

"Then please help me find a suitable store."

Yaozi readily agreed: "If someone sells the store, I will tell Boss Shen immediately."

Who doesn’t like a boss who takes things easy and is happy to do so?

After buying a new house, Shen Qianning went back to live there every day.

Yaozi found Shen Qianning again the next day because she had found the three reliable boys and a maid that Shen Qianning had asked her to find.

However, she brought more than four people.

Instead, she called everyone who had tested her character.

yard.

The eight men and two women who arrived stood in a row.

All children are under 14 years old and over ten years old.

Every child looked anxious.

He was so cautious that he didn't even dare to raise his head and look at Shen Qianning.

Shen Qianning sighed.

I know these children have low self-esteem and insecurity.

"You all raise your heads and let me see."

Three of the ten children still did not raise their heads.

Shen Qianning turned his attention to the other seven people.

Although the seven were timid, they still mustered up the courage to look at Shen Qianning.

well.

She was still very satisfied with the seven people.

When she looks for someone to serve her two children, she must look for someone brave.

"The seven of you will introduce yourselves one by one."

The boy at the end was about thirteen or fourteen years old. He stuttered and said, "The younger one is called Shitou. He is only fourteen years old."

Starting with a stone, the next few introduced themselves even though they stumbled.

Shen Qianning pointed at a maid who matched his expectations.

Then he pointed at the stone and two other young men who looked very honest and said: "You four stay."

The four people accused were very happy.

When they came, Yaozi said that it was Boss Shen who wanted to buy a maid and a boy.

In Qucheng, you don't have to know which restaurant has good wine, but you must know who Boss Shen is.

Many people truly admire Shen Qianning.

So do they.

Because I heard that Boss Shen is a very kind person, they were all sold out by their families for various reasons. Knowing that this is what they will do for the rest of their lives, of course they want to be with a good master.

Yazi smiled and went to discuss the price with Shen Qianning.

After hearing that each child can be bought for only ten taels of silver, and it is a death deed.

Shen Qianning's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

Somewhat uncomfortable.

There is also some sympathy for these children.

Yaozi thought Shen Qianning was not satisfied with the price: "Boss Shen, I really didn't bid you any random prices. That girl originally sold her for 12 taels of silver."

Shen Qianning quickly comforted: "I don't mind that they are expensive, I just think that the gap between people is really big."

These words touched Yaozi's heart.

Yaozi's mood dropped for a moment.

"No, these children are all hard-working. They were carefully selected by me. They are all children from poor families. Those two girls, their families sold them because selling them was better than what they were given by marriage. Lots of betrothal gifts.”

"Where are the boys?" Just say patriarchal!What happened when the boy was sold?

Yaozi looked back and said, "Let's talk about Shitou. His mother gave birth to eight sons. Shitou is the fifth. At home, her father does not love her. In order to find a wife for their eldest son who is over 25 years old, her parents decided to give birth to a daughter-in-law. So I sold the stone. This child is a sensible person. He didn’t cry when he was sold. It’s just that I heard him secretly sobbing in a deserted place in the middle of the night. This child..."

Shen Qianning thought for a moment and said, "Let the other girl stay too! Just give her an extra bite to eat."

She can't buy all these children. Three boys are enough for her.

Otherwise, if you buy too much, you won’t be able to live in this small courtyard.

If a girl doesn’t buy it, she doesn’t know what her fate will be.

After all, she still felt more sorry for the girl.

The girl who was not chosen was a little depressed and her head dropped even further.

Yaozi glanced at the girl and secretly sighed that the girl was very lucky.

"Okay, the four people named just now will stay, and so will you."

The girl who lowered her head felt Yaozi pointing at her, raised her head, and was pleasantly surprised.

"Me, can I stay too?"

Yaozi nodded and said: "You are lucky. Boss Shen felt sorry for you and kept you. Since the five of you were bought by Boss Shen, it is your luck. From now on, you must thank Boss Shen and help Boss Shen seriously. Don't I failed Boss Shen’s kindness.”

All five people nodded.

The five people who were not selected were dejected and were taken away by Yaozi.

Shen Qianning pointed to the edge of the flower bed and said, "Go sit there and I will explain my requirements to you."

The five people sat down obediently.

Shen Qianning glanced at the five people and said, "From now on, you two girls will be responsible for cleaning the yard and serving tea and water."

The two girls nodded desperately.

"What are your two names?"

The girl chosen first by Shen Qianning said: "My name is Xiu Luo."

"My name is Qingqing."

Shen Qianning thinks this name is pretty good and there is no need to change it: "Then I will just call you by your names from now on."

Xiuluo and Qingqing were happy again.

They had heard before that many wealthy families would rename their maids when they bought them back.

They are used to hearing their own names, and if they change them again, they always feel lost.

Shen Qianning glanced at Shitou again and said, "I remember you. Your name is Shitou. Where are you two? Introduce yourselves."

After listening to their introductions, Shen Qianning found out that one of them was called Feifei and the other was Xiaoshun.

The name is really perfunctory.

After knowing the names of the five people, Shen Qianning talked about his rules.

"I will teach you the rules during this period. Whoever behaves well can stay with the young master."

She also wanted to observe the five people.

In the next few days, Shen Qianning personally taught several people the rules and arranged things for them to do.
