Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

Others may just think they are flirting, after all, both of them have a lover's unique playfulness in their eyes, and only they themselves know what's going on.

After he said it, Ling Jingxuan's eyes changed decisively, and he couldn't help but evaluate the possibility of buying someone in his heart. They must be busy making jam for the next two months. We need to save enough money to buy land, and then hire people to open up wasteland and sort out all the land we bought before the sea water pours in. There are also new plans after October. It will be even busier to open chūn next year. A few people are not too busy, and they have to pick up the little buns to school every day.

"How many people are there in your family?"

Thinking of this, Ling Jingxuan asked in a low voice, this person looks good, and the woman in my memory doesn't seem to be of the highest quality. As long as everyone else is okay, it's fine to buy them. Just like what Sheng Rui said, You have to buy it sooner or later, it’s rare to come across a decent one, it’s better to buy it back sooner, just? ? Thinking of the three thatched cottages at home, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help but have a headache, and the plan to build a house was even more urgent.

"Um?"

Song Gengniu raised his head in surprise, but he couldn't react a little stupidly. Liu Baoren next to him quickly put his knees on his back: "Well, what are you, Ling Gongzi is asking you something."

"In reply to Engong's words, there are five people, in addition to the two of us, there is a fifteen-year-old eldest son, a thirteen-year-old daughter, and the youngest son Engong has met, who is seven years old this year. My daughter-in-law and son will grow crops. For the work, we can use the farm animals and other things. My daughter's embroidery work is not bad, Hu Zihe?? He is still young, but he can do some simple farm work."

After returning to his senses, Song Gengniu said hurriedly, it is not the first time he has been sold and sold. He has guessed that Ling Jingxuan wants to buy them, and he can't help but look forward to it. Ling Jingxuan is their benefactor, let them serve them. He, they are absolutely willing, come again, his family is the only strong worker, it is obviously unrealistic to want to be bought by the family, if they are separated, their small family is afraid that they will be separated forever.

"Well, Liu Baoren, I don't know how you plan to sell this family? Don't tell me about the high price, just buy it, how much you are willing to sell it, and I think it's suitable to buy it together."

After a brief evaluation, Ling Jingxuan turned his attention to Liu Baoren. Although the family had a limited workforce, his family was short of women. His daughter-in-law and daughter could accompany his mother if they were okay, and help them by the way. It's not bad for the two sons to be assigned to Jinghan and Xiaobaozi as book boys. As for Song Gengniu, he must have followed them to pick fruit and make jam, and helped with some chores.

Chapter 070 Buying People

"Hehe...Look at what you said, since Young Master Ling is interested, you are old acquaintances, so let me give you an affordable price. Generally, strong labor is sold for eight taels of silver, and the rest ranges from five to seven taels. For you, it’s only six taels, four people are twenty-four taels, plus Song Gengniu’s eight taels, the total is thirty-two taels.”

As soon as he heard the show, Liu Baoren quickly said with a smile, he didn't expect that these few people who looked plain dressed were actually big customers who could not hide their appearance.

Thirty-two taels to buy a family of five?

Ancient people are too worthless, aren't they? Ling Jingxuan, who was buying someone for the first time, couldn't help but be a little surprised. Of course, he concealed it very well and didn't let others find out. Yan Shengrui next to him whispered, "It's expensive, usually children give it away."

Well, this is still expensive, Ling Jingxuan was speechless, but his expression darkened on purpose: "Liu Baoren, I think you don't want to do my business, right? There is also a child among them, and the seven-year-old child has nothing to do but eat. What can I do? I bought people, land and livestock from you, it would be good if you didn’t give it away for free, and you still want to count me six taels of silver, isn’t it too embarrassing?”

Of course, the money in the province must be saved. He has not yet reached the point where his family is rich, and he can spend it arbitrarily, so he doesn't know what to say to the little buns at home when he goes back, and it is estimated that he will be nagged for a while. , No, I can't think about it, his brain hurts just thinking about it.

"Haha?? Are you really a little brother?? It's worth it, I'm a pit, so, the price is 30 taels, this price is low, the wife of the cattle and the eldest son can work as strong laborers. make."

Liu Baoren cheated and cheated, but he was also a arrogant person, otherwise the business would not have been able to do so much, Ling Jingxuan turned to look at Yan Shengrui, and after receiving a nod from him, he said: "Success, only thirty taels, go and take you Bring your wife and children here, I have some things to say first, if you want to come with me, if you don’t want to, forget about it.”

"Xie Engong, Xie Engong??" Hearing this, Song Gengniu couldn't help kowtowing to him, his voice was choked up, and their family finally didn't need to be separated.

Because I decided to buy people temporarily, I had to delay the selection of livestock for a while. Fortunately, Ling Jingpeng and the others couldn’t come back so quickly. It didn’t matter if they waited a while. The wife and children came over and saw that their eyes were swollen and their faces were haggard. I am afraid that they have suffered a lot these days. Think about it, too, the son who had the plague was finally healed, and the family was too late to be happy. After being sold, I am always faced with the fear of separation from my family and a dark future. No one can stand it.

"Engong, thank you for saving my Huzi that day. Kuai, Shuisheng, Linger, Huzi, come and see Engong. It was the prescription he prescribed that cured Huzi's plague."

Because Song Gengniu didn't tell her the whole story of encountering Ling Jingxuan, when he saw him, the woman fell at his feet excitedly, not forgetting to pull her three children with tears in their eyes. looking at Ling

Jing Xuan, who was a little silly, couldn't react. Song Gengniu walked over and gave them a blow on the head: "What are you doing? Why don't you hurry up and thank your grace."

"Oh, thank you Engong."

The eldest boy was the first to react, and quickly pulled his younger brother and sister to his knees.

"Don't kneel.

"So you are the one who prescribed the medicine for the plague? Oh, brother Ling, I really have no eyes. I knew you were the one who rescued our town. How could I dare to ask you for money? I'm really sorry. Even if their family of five was given to you by the older brother, there is no need to talk about money or money."

Before Ling Jingxuan could finish speaking, Liu Baoren, who had been listening for a long time beside him, suddenly slapped his forehead and rushed forward. The entertainment-like smile on his face was instantly dyed with a little compliment and flattery. The news is better than others. He has already received the news. The magistrate Hu is looking for him. It is said that he wants to reward him well. He is still a genius doctor who can prescribe the plague. Who can live a lifetime without a headache? If one day he gets a disease that others can't cure, maybe he will ask for it in his name, so the conclusion is that this business will make a steady profit without losing money.

Compared with the previous one, this attitude can be said to be one in the sky and one on the ground. Ling Jingxuan and Yan Chengrui can guess their purpose with a little brainstorming, but Zhao Dalong and Han Fei, who are following behind them, are confused, thirty-two transactions. As expected, he is the biggest guarantor in Qingyang County. What shocked them even more was that Ling Jingxuan's medical skills were so good that he could prescribe the plague.

"No, it's just as much money as it should be, and I can still afford it for thirty taels."

However, if he is so easy for people to make calculations, then he is not Ling Jingxuan, he will never be soft when it is time to take advantage, and even if he should take advantage of it, even if it is presented to him, he will not care.

"Oh, look at what Brother Ling said. Of course, I know that thirty-two is not a problem for you. Isn't this brother's intention? Or does Brother Ling look down on brother?"

Seeing that he is a brother and a brother, people who don't know may think that they have a strong relationship.

"It's not a question of whether you can look down on it, Liu Baoren, you're welcome. In the future, there will be opportunities for us to cooperate. You can't give me free every time, right? I'm not good at saying that, the relationship between teeth and tongue is good enough? But they still When there are bumps, money cannot be involved in any relationship that wants to maintain it for a long time. Since Liu Baoren is interested in my friend, I definitely have no reason to refuse. For our future cooperation, it is better to make it clear about money. ."

There is no free lunch in the world, and he doesn't want to owe the other party's favor for thirty taels of silver. If there is any debt in the world that is the most difficult to repay, it is undoubtedly the debt of favor.

"Let's put it this way, if I don't charge you, I seem to look down on you a little bit, okay, brother, I'll depend on you, brother Ling, come to me if you have anything in the future, as long as it's within my ability. , my brother will definitely do it properly for you."
