Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space

Li Mingxia took a look at the person who took care of him. He saw that he was wearing silk and his speech was not humble. He should be a manager with a say.

This is perfect. If you like a lot of things, it will be easier to negotiate the price. Otherwise, if he cannot make the decision, you will have to go through the trouble again.

"It's a permanent contract, no temporary workers. Is there anyone suitable?" Li Mingxia said to the man.

Manager Lin's eyes lit up, he nodded and said, "Of course there are some, Miss, Madam, and this young master, please follow me. The back hall is warm and spacious, so it will be convenient for you to choose."

Zhang and Li Zhengde did not move, they just looked at Li Mingxia. Not to mention the two little kids, their mother and sister did not say anything, they just had to stand aside obediently.

Li Mingxia nodded and agreed, and Manager Lin quickly led the way.

After a few words, Manager Lin had already figured out who was the person in charge of money in this family, so he spoke to Li Mingxia.

"Miss, do you want to buy a boy or a girl? A younger one or an older one? The prices are different." Manager Lin asked Li Mingxia about her request in detail.

Li Mingxia thought for a moment and said, "We need to buy three men, strong and capable of working, and five women, two young ones and three older ones, all of whom must be capable of working, strong and good-tempered. Forget about the ones who are troublesome on a daily basis. I won't buy them. It's just a waste of time."

When Manager Lin heard this, he had a rough idea in his mind. He agreed and went out.

After a quarter of an hour, a few little girls, about the same age as Li Mingqiu and Li Mingdong, came in and served tea and cakes. Then, not long after, Manager Lin came in with his men.

"Miss, I have everything you want. Please choose a servant first. Once you've made your choice, I'll let the maids and servants in." Manager Lin stood beside Li Mingxia and said with a smile.

This was nothing, Li Mingxia didn't ask any more questions, just nodded and agreed.

"Tell me your names, prices, and the jobs you can do. If the lady accepts you, you will have a good life in the future. You don't have to starve or freeze here with me!" Manager Lin looked at the men who had sold themselves into slavery, his eyes full of coldness and warnings, completely devoid of the friendly expression he had when he spoke to Li Mingxia just now.

"Miss, my name is Wang Hu. I can do carpentry work. I am very strong. I am worth twenty taels of silver."

"My name is Zhang Liang. I am a good farmer. I can do the work of two people. I am worth twenty taels of silver."

"My name is Han Dong. I can read and do accounting. My price is twenty-five taels of silver."

Li Mingxia glanced at Han Dong who said he could read and do accounting. As expected, in this era, as long as you have read books and know how to read, you can sell yourself at a higher price. This is really an eternal truth.

However, this time Li Mingxia was looking for someone who could do the work, was strong, honest, loyal and obedient, not an accountant, so even if Han Dong could read, he was not within his consideration.

So Li Mingxia just glanced at Han Dong and then retracted his gaze and continued to listen to the next person's self-introduction.

There were more than twenty people, and Li Mingxia remembered their names one by one and what they were good at.

At the beginning, Zhang could still listen, but later she had completely forgotten who was who. When the last person finished reporting his or her price, Zhang shook her head, looked up at Li Mingxia, and waited for her to speak.

Manager Lin looked calm, as these things happened every day and he knew exactly what these people could and could not do. Otherwise, how could he do business if he couldn't answer the questions of the master?

"How is it? Miss, do you think there is anything acceptable? I'm not bragging, but there is no pawnbroker within a radius of 500 miles that can compare to ours. If there is anyone you think is acceptable or worthy of your attention, I will ask him to come out and say a few words to you, brother and miss." Manager Lin said to Li Mingxia.

"Well, this, this, and this. Let me ask a few questions before deciding." Li Mingxia pointed at three people. Two of them were the two who spoke at the beginning. One was called Wang Hu and the other was called Zhang Liang. One of them was good at carpentry and the other was good at farming. The last one was a man called Shen Xing. At first, he looked weak and I thought he was an accountant or someone who had fallen into trouble, but he turned out to be a cook.

"Can you cook?" Li Mingxia glanced at Shen Xing and said with interest.

Shen Xing raised his head, glanced at Li Mingxia, and knelt down.

"Yes, I can cook, do accounting, read, and do farm work. And I definitely do no less than anyone else." Shen Xing said word by word.

He knew that his body did not look like that of a man who could do heavy work. "If you don't believe me, you can take me back first and hire me as a temporary worker. Give me a meal a day. You can discuss the wages with Manager Lin. If you are satisfied, you can buy me back."

Shen Xing looked very anxious and really wanted Li Mingxia to buy him back.

Li Mingxia pondered for a moment and looked at Shen Xing.

"Tell me your requirements." After a while, Li Mingxia spoke.

Shen Xing dared to say that because he was sure that he could do the job well and let himself be kept. Moreover, his selling price was not expensive, only twenty taels of silver. He had so many skills, was literate and could work. There was no reason why such a person could not be sold.

At first, Li Mingxia suspected that Shen Xing might have some shameful hidden injury, otherwise why would he sell it at such a price.

But Manager Lin repeatedly assured that the people here were all clean and healthy, and even promised to sign a document to guarantee that the people he sold were all healthy and had no problems.

After listening to Manager Lin's words and looking at Shen Xing in front of him, Li Mingxia's curiosity could no longer be suppressed.

"I have a younger sister, she is eleven years old this year, she can't speak, and her face was injured for some reason... She is also in this pawnshop. The price is ten taels of silver. If you buy me back, you must take my sister with you, otherwise I would rather die than leave this door." Shen Xing sighed and kowtowed to Li Mingxia.

So that's how it is. After hearing this, Li Mingxia finally understood why such good conditions had not been sold yet.

It turns out to be a bundled sale!
