Traveling to another world and becoming a local owner

Put on weight in autumn and store meat in winter. The food at home has improved a lot recently. Zhang Ling ate a lot and then went back to his room early and got into bed.

"Oh, I've been single for more than 20 years, and I don't even know what it feels like to have a warm bed... I don't know if Ye Qingmei's family issues have been resolved... The same goes for Xin'er, where is the personal maid she was promised?" The night in the mountain village was a little chilly. Zhang Ling lay in the cold bed, thinking about all sorts of things, and fell asleep unknowingly.

The next morning, Zhang Ling got up early, washed up briefly, and seeing that Daniu and the others were still busy, he told them to take a rest and then left alone.

Just like two days ago, they asked their aunt to kick Liu Jie out of bed like slaughtering a pig, and the two brothers set out for the county town again.

"You kid, why did you get up so early? You made me unable to finish my dream." Along the way, Liu Jie had panda eyes and his tone was very unhappy.

"Aren't you planning to go to the carpentry shop to see if there's anyone who knows carpentry? There are so many people at home with nothing to do, so I might as well find two people who know carpentry and bring them back to make some steamers and spinning wheels or something." Zhang Ling couldn't stand his complaining anymore and explained out loud.

"Why don't you just ask the carpenter in our village for these things? Why do you have to run so far?" Liu Jie became even more angry when he heard this.

"You'll know when the time comes. Come on, we're rich now. I'll invite you to the best restaurant in the county. I'll pay for all your meals today." Zhang Ling ignored him and walked ahead with his legs shaped like a figure eight, swaying from side to side.

"Look how proud you are. You are like a funeral with an empty coffin." Liu Jie was so angry that he teased.

"What do you mean?"

"Arrogant!"

"What a mess, so early in the morning, bah!" Zhang Ling was very depressed.

"I, your brother, haven't said anything yet, so it's your turn to spend money? Don't rush back now that you're here. I've wanted to go listen to some music for a long time." Liu Jie pretended to be angry and made a suggestion.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. You're my cousin after all."

"Does it have to have a courtesy name?"

"......" Zhang Ling was speechless.

The two of them walked and stopped along the way, and Liu Jie almost collapsed from exhaustion several times. After a lot of dilly-dallying, they finally arrived at the county town.

"I can't take it anymore. You're almost tormenting me to death. Next time, if you ask me to walk to the county town, I won't come even if you invite me to a brothel. When we go back later, I have to buy a carriage. You pay for it!" When the two of them arrived at the city gate, Liu Jie sat down on the ground without caring about his image and said.

"..." Zhang Ling was speechless for a moment. Noticing the strange looks around him, he quickly distanced himself from him.

After having breakfast in a random tavern, Zhang Ling went straight to Qianfu Dental Clinic. This time, the dentist who received him was not the same one as before.

"Please come in, gentlemen. What do you want? Women, maids, or even boys and girls? We have some in our store and can definitely meet all your needs." The broker smiled and made faces, with an unusual meaning in his smile.

Zhang Ling knew what this guy was thinking. His face flushed red, and he immediately waved his hands and said, "What nonsense! I'm here to see your shopkeeper Wang."

The dentist was embarrassed when he heard this, and he quickly apologized with a smile. "I'm sorry, sir, please don't be angry. Please come in, I'll go call the shopkeeper."

After Yalang left, Zhang Ling saw Liu Jie who was trying to hold back his laughter and said unhappily, "What are you thinking about? You can hardly hold back your fat face."

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be shy. I'm going to buy you a boy catamite today to satisfy your needs. Haha." Liu Jie said, laughing.

"Get out of here, you little bastard. If you want to buy it, keep it for yourself." Zhang Ling's face turned dark when he heard that. He flicked his sleeves and quickened his pace.

"Mr. Zhang is here, please come in and take a seat." The shopkeeper walked hurriedly and greeted the two of them as soon as he saw them.

"Greetings, Shopkeeper Wang. I came here today to trouble you with a favor." After the greetings, Zhang Ling directly stated his purpose.

"Sir, please tell me what you want to say. As long as I can do it, I will do my best." Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Wang immediately listened attentively.

"It's like this. I want to find a few people who can do carpentry work, no matter if they are apprentices or people with some skills. The price is negotiable." Seeing that the other party did not seem to be perfunctory, Zhang Ling spoke up.

"Well, we still have three young and strong men here, but none of them knows how to do carpentry. I can only send someone to ask other carpentry shops." Shopkeeper Wang looked embarrassed when he saw this matter.

"Well, thank you very much. Has anyone reserved these three young men? If not, I would like to buy them all." Zhang Ling seemed a little surprised when he heard this. There were too few young and strong laborers in his family, and they were just not enough.

"These three people were sent by the government last night, and we haven't had time to notify the big customers yet. If you want them, we can sell them to you directly."

"Thank you very much. What are the origins of these three people? Why were they sent here by the government?"

"It is said that he was a deserter who ran back from the border. He was caught by the county government and directly demoted to slavery. When I got the news, I went to bring him back immediately."

"Well, I've bought these three people. Please send someone to ask for me." Zhang Ling made the decision immediately.

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment, I'll be back soon." After saying this, Shopkeeper Wang immediately turned around and left.

Zhang Ling sat for a while, and seeing that Yalang was still standing outside the door, he asked him to take him to see the three young men.

It was the same backyard and the same stone house as last time. Three men in handcuffs and leg irons were lying weakly on the hay. Their bodies were covered with scars, and dark blood scabs covered their clothes.

"Why are these people in such a state? Why don't you ask a doctor to treat them?" Zhang Ling turned around and asked.

"Sir, don't be ridiculous. These people were already covered with wounds when they were sent here. I don't know how much money it will cost to hire a doctor. Even if we sell them, we will still make a loss!" The broker explained with an apologetic smile.

Zhang Ling nodded and said nothing. Merchants value profit, so they will not do business that will lose money.

"Huh? Something's not right. These people were fine last night, but why are they not moving at all now? Hey, whoever is inside, hurry up and say something. Do you hear me?" Yalang came to the window and seemed to realize that something was wrong, so he shouted.

Seeing that there was still no movement from the few people, he quickly opened the door, walked up to the three people and kicked them lightly with his toes. Seeing that there was still no response, he quickly used his fingers to feel the other person's breath.

"Fortunately, he's still breathing." Seeing that the person was still alive, Yalang finally put his heart at ease.

"What are you standing there for? Go get a doctor." Zhang Ling was furious when he saw this.
