The word "slave" was engraved on the boy's face, and his originally handsome face looked a little ferocious. He gestured with his hands.

"You can't speak?"

The boy shook his head. Then he nodded.

"If you are willing to follow me, I will treat you, smooth out the marks on your face, and heal your throat."

The boy nodded excitedly.

Ten more people saw Yun Yuxi was about to take everyone away, and they all knelt down and cried, "Master, please leave us here. We will be loyal to you forever. If we disobey you, we will die without a burial place."

The banging sound of the kowtow seemed to knock on Yun Yuxi's heart, even Yue Lan, who was a killer, was moved by it.

Yun Yuxi pointed at the ten people and asked, "Boss, I want all of them." The boss said calmly, "Master, please go to the front and have a cup of tea. I will order someone to go to the government office to process the indentures for these people." But he was very happy.

"Master, look at the price. I'll give you a discount. Originally, our shop charges ten taels of silver for a male slave, five taels of silver for a woman or child, and two taels of silver for an elderly person. Today's total is two hundred and eighty-seven taels of silver. Master, just give me two hundred and eighty taels. I'll give you another five taels for the younger one to have some tea with." The shopkeeper said as he calculated with an abacus.

"Shopkeeper Liu, we are all regular customers. I'll take you away for one price: two hundred and thirty taels of silver. No bargaining." Yun Yuxi said bluntly, cursing in her heart, "Damn bastard, do you think I don't know the market price? Two hundred and eighty-seven taels, do you think I'm a sucker? I've calculated it and it's two hundred and thirty taels."

Manager Liu's face turned green. "Master, this is not good. This pharmacy has a life sentence for Tong Sao. You are too good at bargaining. Two hundred and seventy taels cannot be less."

"Manager Liu, are you sure two hundred and thirty is not enough? Then let's go to another store." Everyone was panicking, including Manager Liu. The duck that was about to be in his mouth was about to fly away, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Two hundred and forty taels."

"make a deal".

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Shopkeeper Liu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuelan followed the shop assistant and quickly signed the contract at the government office. She also bought a few carriages and rushed back with the shop assistant.

The purchased servants, both men and women, filled the carriage and set off in a mighty procession to the house in the east of the city.

"Brother Amu, something bad has happened. Many carriages are coming towards us," Niu Niu said to Amu in fear with her big eyes flashing.

"Niuniu, quickly get everyone to hide, I'll go out and take a look. You guys don't come out," Amu ordered.

The carriage finally stopped. Amu was relieved to see Yuelan getting off the carriage. He didn't recognize Yun Yuxi who was dressed as a man. He shouted, "Sister Yuelan. You are here. What's going on?"

"Amu, the young lady is here too. Quickly open the door and let her and these people in. These are the people the young lady bought," Yuelan said simply.

In the yard, everyone stood in a row, even the children came out.

Yun Yuxi arranged for those who knew martial arts to stand up, so the mute boy and two other men came out. Yun Yuxi ordered, "The three of you are responsible for protecting the house. In your free time, teach the children martial arts."

"Mr. Chen Changgen is in charge of teaching the children to read. Everyone can follow him and learn when they are free."

Yun Yuxi arranged everything for everyone.

So she took off her makeup in public.

"I am the daughter of the Prime Minister, Yun Yuxi. The current emperor has granted me a marriage with the Regent Yan Wuque. This house is under the charge of Amu. Amu will be responsible if anything happens. If anyone tries to take advantage of this, betrays me, or does something that is detrimental to my interests, I will not let them off easily. The lighter punishment will be expulsion, and the heavier punishment will be death," Yun Yuxi scolded domineeringly.

Everyone knelt down and responded loudly, "We will never betray you. If we do, we will die without a burial place."

Amu: "Let the mute in, I have something to ask him."

The mute boy walked into the room. Yun Yuxi looked at the washed and groomed mute and found that half of his face was very handsome with a distinct jawline. If there were no words engraved on it, he would have been a handsome man.

"Can you read?"

The mute nodded.
