Chapter 31

After a long while, someone came out slowly and said, "Miss, the status and deeds of the villain's family are all in the hands of the madam."

Shi Anxia nodded slightly, and then changed his explanation, "Is there anyone else willing to sign the body contract? I can buy your body contract at thirty taels per person, and the monthly silver will be increased to five taels in the future."

Several people looked at each other, each with their own plans in mind.

The thirty-two body contract is really tempting. Even if they are shopkeepers, the price on the market is only twenty taels. As for the five taels of monthly silver, it has more than doubled.

Now that they only have two taels of silver per month, they can still feed and clothe the whole family without worries.

But after signing the contract, I became a slave, and I felt a little unhappy. Who is willing to sell himself into slavery if the status quo can be maintained?

Moreover, judging from their current savings, thirty taels are no longer worth mentioning.

No one spoke.

Seeing this, Shi Anxia said calmly, "I'll give you a moment to think it over. If you are willing to sign, you can come to me. If you wait for me to unpack and check the account, I'm afraid the price won't be there."

All the shopkeepers were shocked.

Tan's mother glanced at Bei Hui at the right moment.

Bei Hui understood, "The shopkeepers should know this. The shops you are in charge of have made little progress over the years. Now that we girls have taken over, we must find ways to revitalize them."

Several shopkeepers lowered their heads, knowing that the other party was right.

Business is getting worse year by year, and now we can barely maintain our capital and make little profit. Fortunately, the host didn't take it seriously and didn't find fault with them.

Bei Hui said again, "Girls are kind-hearted, and I remember that you have been working in the shop since you were young, and you have toiled hard without any credit. So no matter how bad the business is in the accounts, as long as you are not greedy, you can forget about it. It's just girls. There is never a need for a shopkeeper without a physical bond, you can figure it out yourself."

The words have made it very clear, if you don't sign the deed, you won't even have a job. It's not a matter of signing it if you don't want to.

Several people went to the side hall to discuss in despair. Only the shopkeeper who had signed the contract was very relaxed.

Shi Anxia was about to look through the account books presented when she heard Nan Yan come in and report, "Girl, Sister Gui and her family are here."

Shi Anxia said softly, "Bring it in."

Bei Hui saw that her girl's chin had become thinner and pointed in just two days. She felt heartbroken and hurriedly went over to give her a shoulder squeeze.

Put your hands on your shoulders and rub them. The girl is too thin! In her mind, she was thinking about what she should do in the kitchen to give the girl a good meal.

Sister-in-law Gui brought her family into the house, greeted Shi Anxia, ​​and then stood aside in a polite manner.

Bei Hui looked back and forth and said, "You all have to sign a contract to work in the Marquis' Mansion?"

A girl of about seventeen or eighteen asked in a shrill voice, "That depends on how much money the mansion gives. The other day, a family on Dong'an Street offered twenty taels to buy someone like me..."

"Being a roommate?" Bei Hui interrupted.

The girl's face suddenly turned red, "Well, of course not, she must be a first-class maid."

Bei Hui glanced at her coldly, "Just you? Even a third-class maid can't reach it, so why not give it to the first class! Do you think the money in our Hou Mansion was blown by the strong wind?"

"Hey, how do you talk? I..."

Shi Anxia frowned and said indifferently, "Noisy! Palm!"

Tan's mother slapped him in the face.

The girl covered her red face and fainted instantly.
