Deng smiled and blushed, and there was unstoppable sweetness in his heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It just so happened that Deng Juren finished the exam for Brother Li Hai, and Li Zhu arrived with his eldest brother Li Quan, uncle Li Hongshen and Mrs. Zhang. Deng Juren was in a good mood, and nodded his head to respond to Li Hongshen and Mrs. Zhang's gifts, and smiled at Li Quan, Li Hongshen and Mrs. Zhang were both extremely happy, and they also knew that this was the blessing of Li Zhu's family. Li Quan was a little flattered, but fortunately, he had also seen the world, and he didn't behave too much, and there was no rudeness.

After seeing the ceremony, Deng Caixuan drove the carriage and went straight to the southeast gate.

The southeast gate is an official default pickled place, what you can think of, what you can't think of, everything you can't think of, there are all here. After the civil strife, it was more chaotic than ever. Not only are there water stains floating on the ground with dead flies, but the surrounding area has been filled with the sound of screaming and screaming, like a toad noisy pit, which makes people uncomfortable before entering.

When Li Zhu and Deng Shi saw it, they regretted that they had brought the children over, and Li Zhu wanted the children to come down from the carriage. Deng Juren looked at Li Zhu's appearance, as if he wanted to train Li Hai, and immediately said to Li Hai: "Hai'er, you will pull your younger brothers and sisters later, follow your grandfather, don't run around." After Li Zhu heard this, he looked at Deng Juren and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

Deng hugged Binbin and said, "Later, my mother will hold you." Binbin shook his head and said, "Mother, I must not run around, I will pull my brothers well." Deng Chi hurriedly promised that he would be optimistic about Binbin, Deng looked at the children, got everyone's assurance, and thought that he would be more careful later, and it should be fine, so let the five children follow Li Zhu hand in hand.

After getting out of the carriage, Deng Chi and Li Hai both grabbed Binbin's little hand. Hamahama had just looked through the window of the carriage and found that although it was chaotic, it was still orderly, and it must have been supervised.

Li Quan led everyone around, Binbin felt that this place was like a flea market in the previous life, the children looked at the novelty, and they all looked around, even Deng Chi was not exempt from vulgarity.

Li Bo's eyes were sharp, and he saw a stall with a large number of ropes of varying thicknesses, and he pulled everyone to go over to take a look, and while walking over, he said: "Binbin, there is a rope, I buy it, you weave it." Remember I wanted two. Deng Shi looked over and said with a smile: "You kid, your eyes are really sharp." Li Bo tilted his head when he heard this.

The family walked to the stall, Mrs. Deng looked at the rope, frowned, touched it, shook her head and said: "These ropes are not thin, they are thick at first glance, not good, and cannot be embroidered." Min'er, you want to embroider thread, and you will go to the cloth village to buy it later, these can't be used. When the stall owner heard this, he hurriedly said, "This lady, my rope is thicker, and although I can't make embroidery thread, I can tie things." You see, isn't it better than hemp rope when tied up like this? It's all red, and it's a good color. You are the first customer of the day, so you can count it cheaper. ”

When Deng and Binbin heard this, their eyes lit up, Deng approached Li Zhu and wrote a buy word in the palm of his left hand, Li Zhu looked at Deng and nodded. Binbin pulled Li Zhu's trouser legs, looked at Li Zhu with tears in his eyes, Li Zhu looked at it, nodded with a smile, and said, "This little brother, how do you sell these ropes?" If you can't make embroidery thread, you'll be cheaper. If you buy too much, how do you count it? ”

When the stall owner heard that there was a door, he hurriedly smiled and said: "This lord, this is homemade, you have wrapped up today's everything, and it will cost five taels of silver." ”

Li Zhu, Deng, and Binbin looked at it, and the ground was covered with red cloth, with red ropes and green ropes on them, and it was estimated that there were several catties.

Uncle Li Hongshen looked at these red ropes that were not used, and it was not good for Li Zhu's face outside, so he said to Li Zhu tactfully: "Zhu, these ropes can only be used when the girl gets married." You buy it now, it's too early. ”

Li Quan looked at it and said, "This little brother, your family here is about five or six catties, and you sell it for five taels of silver, which is sold as embroidery thread." ”

When the stall owner heard this, he knew that he had met an expert, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "My lord, the villain's family is in urgent need of five taels of silver, this is the lowest price." You see, although these ropes are thicker and can't be embroidered, if you marry a girl and use it to tie a dowry, it's more beautiful, isn't it? ”

Deng picked up the rope, touched it, and found that there were many red ropes as thick as a child's little finger, and he was even more pleased, thinking that the knot made by the thick rope must be bigger, and it would be more expensive to sell at that time. Binbin also saw the thick red rope, and was happy, seeing Deng's appearance, he thought to himself, his mother should let his father buy it, so he stopped paying attention to it and continued to look around.

Li Zhu looked at Deng's appearance, nodded and said, "Okay, let's buy all of these." ”

Li Quan wanted to stop it, but seeing that Deng was already squatting and smiling while touching, he didn't say anything more. After Li Zhu handed over the money to the stall owner, the stall owner offered to carry the rope through the carriage, and Deng Caixuan took the stall owner to carry the rope back to the carriage.

Li Quan looked at Li Zhu, didn't dare to rub it any longer, and thought to himself that he didn't know what irrelevant things Li Zhu was going to buy. With everyone, the familiar shuttle to a stall.

This stall is selling people at first glance. A simple straw shed is worse than the cowshed in Hamahama's house, and there is more loose grass on the roof. But the ground is clean, and from time to time the smell of herbs wafts out. There were three rows of people standing in the hut. In the first row in front stood stout men and women; In the second row in the middle, there are smaller children and delicate women, and some men with more simple bodies; In the third row in the back, there were some elderly people lying or standing, and some injured people, all of whom were simply bandaged.

Li Quan brought a middle-aged man with a tiger's back and a large beard over and introduced to everyone: "This is Wu Baiju, who has always been doing business in this industry, and is a more honest person, in this industry, he has a good reputation." The sellers have always been innocent white families. ”

Binbin looked at Wu Baiju, this person did not have the imaginary obscenity, nor the imaginary businessman's face, giving people the feeling of being more like a chivalrous warrior.

When Wu Baiju saw Deng Juren, he hurriedly bent down to make a play, although he didn't look like it, he obviously respected Deng Juren very much.

may have been prompted by Li Quan, so he looked at Li Zhu's family and found that they were all handsome people, and they were probably official families. Wu Baiju hurriedly said to Li Quan: "Brother Quan, I'll tell you the truth. The people I sell are all handlers of work, all peasant families, and they just eat with their mouths, but they don't know much about the rules. This is Deng Juren, and the old lady Zhang of the landlord's family over there, you high-ranking mansions, the rules are high, and I have no training, so I may not be suitable. You can go to the teahouse next to it, say my name Wu Baiju, and they will lead you to the inner room, where all of them have been trained or are of better quality. ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "That's the case, in the past, the people of our old Zhang family bought it in the teahouse. ”

Hamahama had never bought or sold people in her previous life, but there was still ordinary recruitment, and she had a bit of an eye for people, and she had been looking at the people in the grass shed.

Li Zhu listened to Wu Baiju's words and said with a smile: "This Baiju brother, I am a farmer, just buy some that can do ordinary farm work, not so much exquisite." ”

Wu Baiju was surprised for a while after hearing this, and quickly put away his thoughts, and took out a piece of paper and gave it to Li Zhudao: "I have some ordinary people here who can't eat three meals, all of them are real, here is a copy of the terms of sale written by me entrusted to someone, you can take a look, if you can, you can start choosing." ”

Deng Juren took the paper, smiled when he saw it, and handed it to everyone to circulate. At this time, Binbin asked Deng to hug, Deng hugged Binbin, looked at the paper, and saw that it was written: I, Wu Baiju, make a living for my brothers and sisters, all the people in my place, men are not slaves, and women are not concubines. Within three years, if I sell it, if there is any theft or laziness, I can return the money. Five years later, the slavery and concubine of men and women have nothing to do with me.

Hamahama looked over and found that Wu Baiju was not like a human trafficker, but more like a job agency in his previous life. This increased Hamahama's goodwill, and he wanted to buy people here even more.

Deng Juren saw that everyone had seen the same, and said: "Since Min'er's family just wants to buy people to help farm and feed livestock, then the choice is the same here." ”

Li Zhu's family all smiled and nodded.

Li Quan said to Wu Baiju: "Brother Baiju, my brother is a Xiucai, and he wants to buy one or two people to help the family farm and feed livestock." You see if there are any familiar hands, or just happen to be a couple. ”

Wu Baiju looked at Li Zhu, made a half-series, and said, "This show is polite." ”

Li Zhu looked at it and didn't know how to return the salute, and touched his nose. Wu Baiju straightened his waist and said strangely: "This Xiucai still farms at home?" ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and said: "Xiucai also wants to eat and support his family, why don't you farm?" Wu Baiju looked at Li Zhu and said, "Xiucai generally doesn't farm, they all find something clean and lightweight." ”

Li Zhu touched his nose and didn't say anything more. Wu Baiju thought that what he asked was a little abrupt, and hurriedly said: "This is my abruptness, I don't have a husband and wife, but the people here are all good at doing farm work, you can choose casually, and we will negotiate the price after you choose." ”

Everyone nodded after hearing this, and Binbin was about to go to the ground again, so Deng had no choice but to put Binbin underground.

Li Zhu asked the people in the hut, "Have any of you ever raised chickens?" Some take a step forward. "All of them are taking a step forward.

Li Zhu asked again: "Have you ever raised cattle?" Some take a step forward. "There were only five people in the first row, three boys and three women who looked like they were six years old in the second row, and seven old people in the third row.

Li Zhu looked at it and asked again, "Have you ever raised a horse?" Some take a step forward. "Horses are a more expensive thing, and ordinary people don't have such livestock. No one moved in the first row, no one moved in the second row, and two old men stepped forward in the third row.

Li Zhu looked at it and said to Wu Baiju in embarrassment: "This brother, my family wants one to help raise livestock and the other to help farm. Both of them fit my requirements, but I can only choose one. ”

After the two old men listened, one of them was a lean, swarthy old man and said, "You choose this old sickle, the autumn harvest is almost coming, and I was injured in the civil strife, so I can't go down to the field to help this autumn harvest." The old scythe can help. ”

Wu Baiju looked at the two of them, nodded and said, "That's true, this showman, can you choose one?" You don't need to ask about farming, there will be a metropolis here, you just need to choose a stronger one. ”

Hamahama heard the old man's voice and asked, "This grandfather, do you two know each other?" The swarthy old man saw that Hamahama was like a little virgin under the Guanyin seat, and he had a good impression and said with a smile: "Yes, we are from the same village. The old sickle used to be the first farmer in the village, and your family must not be wrong with him. ”

As soon as he heard this, the old sickle next to him said, "Old Shang, this is all a prize from the village." You are also too modest, who does not know the Marchand of our village. Marchand shook his head when he heard this, and a wave of sorrow came up, his body shook, and he returned to the shed and sat down. The old sickle realized that he had said the wrong thing, and said, "My mouth is an untethered door, don't be surprised." Alas. ”

Li Zhu looked at it and asked, "Elder Kama, which village are you from with Shang Lao?" Shang Lao used to raise horses, right? When the old Kamaitou heard the question of the future owner, he hurriedly replied: "Shang Lao and I are from Zhanghuai County in the east. Civil strife arose, and our family fled all the way. I also have two sons and grandchildren at home, and I want to sell them for myself, solve a ration, and sell some money so that the children can live a good life for a few days. ”

Li Zhu nodded after hearing this, and Binbin covered his mouth and laughed after hearing this. Li Zhu asked, "What are you laughing at, kid?" Hamahama pointed to the old sickle and said with a smile: "This old man is such an adult and still wants to deceive people, he must have deceived the people in the family." Li Zhu looked at the old sickle in surprise. The old sickle's face turned red after hearing this, and he said, "My child didn't say yes, nor did he say he didn't agree, so he can't be deceived." ”

Li Zhu frowned after hearing this, Deng Shi looked at Shang Lao and asked, "Shang Lao, where are you injured?" ”

Shang Lao looked at his feet and said, "My feet have some injuries, and it will take time to recover." Alas. Deng asked, "Elder Shang, who else is in your family?" Shang Lao looked at the Deng family, looked at Li Zhu, and listened to Wu Baiju's meaning just now, this should be a family, so he responded: "The little old man has a grandson in the family, who is twelve years old this year. After a pause, Shang Lao said again: "I want to sell myself and leave some money for my grandson to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

Deng shook his head after hearing this, and asked again, "Does your grandson know?" After hearing this, Shang Lao looked at his feet, raised his head, and said with a yearning expression: "Sun Tzu said that he would sell them together." How can I be reluctant, my grandson is still a little smart, and I still expect him to take the Xiucai exam, I came out this time to sell myself for 20 years. I have to wait for the future to come back and enjoy the blessings. When I came out today, I entrusted my grandson to the people in the old Kamai family, and they helped watch it. ”

Suddenly, a hoarse cry was heard in the distance, "Grandpa, grandpa." (To be continued.) )
