Chapter 81 Buying People
After Shen Mingzhu returned home, she told her family about the alpine grassland and Xiabing Cave she saw on the mountain today.
Everyone was shocked by Shen Mingzhu's good luck. Shen Laosan also said that he just wanted to buy the two mountains with ash trees for Shen Mingzhu.
However, Wang Zhubu said that the high mountain adjacent to the ash tree was also ownerless, so it would be better to buy them both together.
He thought that since he was buying the mountain, he might as well buy it together. However, he didn't expect that there would be such a big surprise.
Especially when he saw Red Hare, he was so excited that he wanted to ride it, but was rejected by Red Hare.
Chi Tu even glanced away in disdain, not even bothering to look at him.
This was the first time he had seen such a smart horse. It was so lovable.
Shen Mingzhu said that there was a group of red rabbit horses on the mountain, which they would tame later, as well as herds of wild buffaloes and wild goats. Hearing so many good things, Shen Laosan felt numb.
Zhuzhu's luck is so good that he is not surprised to hear that he found a plane.
Old Mrs. Shen exclaimed that she had really found a treasure, Zhuzhu had found a treasure mountain!
Her daughter Zhuzhu is the luckiest girl in the world.
Finally, the family discussed and decided that Shen Laosan, Shen Mingshu, Old Man Shen and the two little ones, Shen Mingyu and Shen Mingbao, should still develop in the direction of studying.
Su is still the inheritor of Suzhou embroidery. Shen Laoer and Shen Mingshan, father and son, are responsible for the land and properties of the second and third branches.
Old Mrs. Shen and Old Mr. Shen helped Zhuzhu develop her business, and Zhuzhu gave them a 10% share of the profits.
This made the people in the second room so happy that they didn't know what to say.
Now they finally understood what the rumor in the village meant, "Follow Shen Mingzhu and you will have meat to eat."
Xiao Zhuzhu is the head of the third room, and she has a large amount of private property. Most importantly, Xiao Zhuzhu is smart, capable, and generous!
Shen Laoer and his son nodded repeatedly, and felt that Zhuzhu had so many industries that they, father and son alone, could not manage them all. Zhuzhu could also choose some people in the village to help manage them.
Most of the villagers have the surname Shen. If family members use it well, it will be more reassuring than using outsiders.
In this way, both the problem of management personnel and the employment problem in the village were solved.
There is strength in numbers. Since the villagers have benefited, they will protect the Shen family's property.
In the future, if anything happens to the Shen family, all the villagers will step forward, which is much better than the Shen family fighting alone.
Finally, Shen Mingzhu decided to ask the village chief to come and help with management.
The village chief is a good person. He is also the leader of the village. He has some power and others are somewhat afraid of him.
The most important thing is that he is a member of the Shen family and has received benefits from the Shen family, so he will not harm Shen Mingzhu's family.
Everyone agreed. Shen Mingzhu then thought that the family was different now than before. There were more and more things to do at home and more manpower was needed.
Old Man Shen said directly: "There are two scholars in the family, and we have the quota for four slaves. We can go to the pawnshop to buy four slaves."
The three of them, scholars, all needed bookboys. With bookboys, it would be much more convenient to go out and do things.
The most important thing is that he is old now, and having a servant to run errands and pass on messages is both convenient and gives him face.
Shen Mingzhu thought about it and felt that buying slaves would be the best option, so she decided to go to the county town tomorrow to see if she could buy a few useful servants.
Her family was not averse to the slave trade. They followed the local customs, where the slave trade was legal.
When they hire someone, it not only makes things convenient for their family, but also provides others with food to eat. It's a win-win situation.
In their previous life, their family had a private driver, a housekeeper, a private doctor, a chef, and several Filipino maids and nannies.
Now that they live in this feudal ancient times, it is normal for them to buy a few slaves to help with work.
Shen Mingzhu and her friends acted quickly. Early the next morning, she and her father went to the county town.
Why didn't she ride her Red Hare? Because her father said her Red Hare was too precious.
In this era, the Ferghana horse Red Hare is priceless and is the one that all the nobles want to seize.
Their family is not strong enough now. It is okay for Shen Mingzhu to ride in the village, but if she rides out and is noticed by powerful people, she will get into a lot of trouble.
Shen Laosan said that before he passed the imperial examination, his family should just stay in the village.
Shen Mingzhu also agreed with her father's point of view, and the father and daughter talked and laughed all the way into the county town.
Shen Mingzhu and her father entered a government-run brothel, which, as the name suggests, is a brothel run by a government official.
Official dentists have better credibility than private dentists, and the quality of their servants is also much better.
As soon as the father and daughter entered the dental clinic, they were warmly welcomed by the dentist.
This dentist looked only about seventeen or eighteen years old and looked very smart.
When he saw Shen Laosan wearing a blue cotton robe, he realized that Shen Laosan was a scholar.
The broker went through the list of scholars in the county in his mind and realized that such young scholars were rare, so he became more enthusiastic towards Shen Mingzhu and the others.
"Sir, please come in and sit down, young lady."
The broker warmly welcomed Shen Laosan and Shen Mingzhu into the house, poured them some tea, and said:
"I'm Shitou, the broker here. Are you two here to look at a house? Or to buy someone?"
Shen Lao San asked: "Who are the people here?"
Seeing that Shen Laosan and Shen Mingzhu had extraordinary temperaments and did not seem to be ignorant, the broker became more respectful.
"We have housekeepers, maids, servants, cooks, accountants, maids, and guards. We have anyone you need. What kind of people do you two need?"
"Take some servants and housekeepers, and the maids over to take a look."
When the broker heard this, he realized that they needed several people! It was another big deal, so he immediately ran to the backyard and called people over.
He asked people to stand in three rows: the butler stood in one row, the servants stood in one row, and the old women stood in one row.
"Master, these are the people I picked especially for you two. If you are not satisfied, we can change to another batch."
Shen Lao San nodded, walked forward and said to these people:
"Those who can read, please stand up."
The three older housekeepers stood up, as did the two servants, but none of the maids stood up.
Shen Lao San asked again: "Where have you worked before? What kind of work have you done? How long have you worked there? Why were you sold here?"
Then, he looked at these people with a cold gaze, and his aura instantly emanated.
Several servants were startled. They initially thought that the master was easy-going, but they didn't expect that the master's eyes were so scary.
Some people had already backed out in their hearts and took a small step back, while others suppressed their fear and forced themselves not to move.
Shen Laosan and Shen Mingzhu saw the reactions of these people.
Shen Mingzhu stood beside her father, observing the movements and expressions of these people, and finally set her eyes on their hands.
Their family needs someone now, but they need someone loyal and reliable.
You can't just buy people because you need help. If you buy someone with impure intentions and dishonest hands, it will bring disaster to your family.
Each of the servants told their own experiences. In the end, Shen Lao San chose two young servants, and did not choose any of the maids or the housekeeper.
Shen Mingzhu gave her father a thumbs up. Her father was really amazing and had a good eye for people.
The two servants her father chose, one named Wang Zhuzi and the other named Li Ershuan, were both literate.
These two men have clear eyes and are a bit clever, making them suitable to be book boys.
Shen Lao San put away his pressure, grinned at his daughter, and said to the broker:
"It's just Wang Zhuzi and Li Ershuan. Are there any more people? Bring another group over."
