Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

Just when the two big men were about to give in.

Xia Shengsheng looked at the family of three lying on the ground.

Then he continued to greet them with a smile. "My two lords, do you want to sell these three people? Why don't you sell them to us? It just so happens that my family is short of a few servants. Selling these three people directly to us will save you two the trouble."

The two big men looked at each other and were a little unable to keep up with Xia Shengsheng's train of thought.

I thought we were going to have a big fight just now, why are they hiring more people now?

But this is exactly what they both want.

The man was already seriously ill and the child was mute.

The woman was quite pretty, but she had a very stubborn temper and would not yield no matter how hard you beat her.

This time it's just right, I can use this incident to blackmail the person in front of me.

It will be easier to report back when the time comes.

After a few exchanges of eye contact, one of the big men spoke first.

"You want to buy? Let me tell you, this family of three is not cheap, 100 taels, not a penny less, otherwise we would never sell it to you even if we beat them to death."

Everyone around him took a breath.

Not to mention that one of them was seriously ill, there were two others who were beaten to the point of being on the verge of death.

Even a completely healthy person is standing there.

Only twenty or thirty taels can buy this family of three.

Now this is clearly blackmail.

Ye Chao and Er Cheng pulled Xia Shengsheng's sleeves from behind. They clenched their fists and wanted to beat the two big men down. Well, just take them away. Why would they ask for 100 taels? That's wishful thinking.

Xia Shengsheng patted the two people's hands gently to comfort them.

"Okay, what about the indentures of these three people?"

The two big men looked at Xia Shengsheng in surprise. In fact, they were waiting for Xia Shengsheng to bargain, but they didn't expect Xia Shengsheng to agree so readily.

"The indenture is at the brokerage house. As long as you pay the money, the indenture will be given to you immediately."

Xia Shengsheng took out a 100-tael silver note and waved it in front of the two people.

To prove that she could really afford the money.

"Go get it, hurry up!"

One of the big men hurriedly urged the other to go back and get their indentures.

As if he was afraid that Xia Shengsheng would regret it, he did not dare to let Xia Shengsheng go to the pawnshop to pay the money. He took back 20 taels and said that he had found a buyer for the three of them. The remaining money was divided equally between the two brothers. This time they could finally have a good New Year.

It seems that the kick was not in vain.

If he could earn 40 taels at once, he would be willing to be kicked a few more times.

Xia Shengsheng brought a total of 1000 taels of silver notes with him this time, and he originally planned to exchange them all for silver to take back.

I didn't expect it to come in handy before I even changed it.

After the big man left, no one knew when he would come back.

Xia Shengsheng asked the people around to help lift the family of three up and send them to the clinic on the corner to check their injuries first. They also didn't know what happened to the man who was lying on the ground and unconscious.

"Hey? The silver hasn't been paid yet! People can't be taken away." The person who stayed behind tried to stop them.

"Just help them to the clinic on the corner. We are all here. Are you afraid that we will run away?

Besides, if you die before I pay the money, what am I going to do with them?

Even throwing it away is better than buying a dead person, right? "

Although the words were harsh, the big man finally agreed to take the man to the clinic to check his condition.

The woman was seriously injured.

Xia Shengsheng and Yiyi had to help her up. The child in her arms was also a little dazed, as if he couldn't even open his eyes.

Xia Shengsheng wanted to help carry it over.

But the woman seemed wary and kept holding the child in her arms and refused to let go.

Even though he couldn't walk anymore, he still showed no sign of letting go.

From time to time, his eyes would glance to the side at the man who was being carried by the people around who were helping.

The big man followed the few people closely, as if he was afraid that they would run away.

Some doctors from the clinic also came out to watch the fun.

At the beginning, I really felt sorry for some of them.

But I always think that it is better to have less trouble than more.

So I didn't help.

After seeing that they were about to be bought by Xia Shengsheng, Xia Shengsheng easily took out 100 taels of silver notes.

I know that this mother and her two children are definitely not short of money.

So he ran back quickly and asked other people in the clinic to help carry the patient in.

This is a big business!

The unconscious man was carried to one of the inner rooms, and a doctor went to check on his condition.

There are old women in the clinic who can help apply medicine to women.

The mother-in-law wanted to separate the woman and her child, but the woman refused to do so.

Xia Shengsheng couldn't bear to watch it anymore and helped to persuade them.

"Auntie, please help me take a look. The child is not that old anyway, so there is no need to distinguish between boys and girls."

The old woman working in the clinic saw that the child in the woman's arms was about eight or nine years old, not too old, and it was no big deal for her as an old woman, so she agreed.

While waiting, the big man who went back to get the indenture contract could not be found.

Ye Chao looked at the two people and felt very dissatisfied.

But Xia Shengsheng refused to let them use any more violence.

"The indentures are here. There is enough for three people. Shouldn't the silver be given to us as well?"

Xia Shengsheng looked at the device and confirmed that there was no problem.

He took out the 100 taels of silver from his arms.

Just as the two big men were about to take it, Xia Shengsheng suddenly walked to the door of the clinic with the silver note.

He said in a loud voice, "We have a pity for our mother and son. We sold our family property to get this 100 taels of silver.

Today, in order to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, I saved that family of three. Now I have to hand over the 100 taels of silver to the two gentlemen. "

Only then did he hand over the 122 tickets to the two big men under the gaze of everyone.

The two big men were very happy looking at the silver bills in their hands.

No one cared about Xia Shengsheng's loud noise just now.

With the silver money in his hand, all he could think about was how to spend this unexpected money!

The doctor who was treating the man came out first.

Ercheng hurried over to ask what happened to that person.

“He must have suffered internal injuries and then got caught in the rain, which is why he had a fever and fell into a coma. His injuries are quite serious, and I don’t know if he can be saved.

You decide whether to prescribe some medicine for them to try. "

The doctor at the clinic Xia Shengsheng visited seemed unsure at all, so he decided to go back and ask Doctor Zhao for help.

I just don't know if this man can stand the hardship. A journey of more than an hour is not a short distance.

"If I don't prescribe the medicine first, will the journey of more than an hour make his condition worse?" Xia Shengsheng asked.

The doctor stroked his beard and said without even thinking, "How much worse can it get? You can pull it wherever you want!"

This answer is not good! But it is also not very convincing.

Although it is indirectly proved that the man was seriously injured and might not be able to be saved.

But he also said that a journey of more than an hour would not be a big hindrance to the man.

The maid who was checking the injuries of the woman and the child had not come out yet.

Xia Shengsheng looked at the two big men walking away, said a few words to the children, left some silver, asked the children to wait for her in the clinic, and then chased after them.

Xia Shengsheng is indeed quite cowardly.

She was afraid that if she had really offended them in front of the two big men, and if she was not in the capital later and was caught by the two men while Yi Yi was studying in the city, it would be difficult to deal with.

So I could only be a grandson for once.

But I have to get over this anger, and I have to get it back no matter what, since I was extorted of one hundred taels of silver.

So he followed the two big men from a distance.
