Chapter 140: Slave ......

"The villain doesn't dare! How can a villain murder an adult! Dark Twenty was frightened by Li Xie's words: "Are you afraid that I won't die fast enough" and immediately knelt down. Dark Twenty didn't kneel tightly, and even those who came with him knelt down.

It was better to kneel down and say that the people who came with the dark twenty were slaves after all. Kneeling is a normal thing for them, but kneeling in the dark is a bit too much, no matter how you say it, it used to be a person in the government department.

In this world, when I first saw the emperor kneel, I could only kneel to the sky and kneel to my parents. How could Li Xie stand his knees. So the moment Li Xie knelt down in the dark, it was like someone had been pricked in the buttocks, and he immediately stood up.

"Brother Twenty, what are you doing here? If you have something to say, why are you kneeling? As he spoke, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

"The villain has no second heart for the adult, and will never harm the adult." Secretly felt Li Xie's strength to help him up, but he resolutely did not get up, but raised his head and stared at Li Xie with his eyes firmly in his eyes.

"Brother Twenty, what are you doing? Get up! Okay, I believe you can't do it yet? Li Xie felt the resistance in the hands of the dark twenty and the firmness in his eyes, and nodded hurriedly.

Only then did he stand up with Li Xie's strength: "So that my lord knows that many officials have been imprisoned for indiscriminate eating in the south, and there are a lot of people in the slave shop all of a sudden." This is the urgent need to shoot a group of people, which is also what the emperor said. I'm a little bit away, these people are bought and sold normally, and there will be absolutely no violation of the law. Even if Li Baichuan sues this matter anywhere, we will not pay attention to it. ”

Dark Twenty gave the reason why his comrades told him. Although he himself didn't quite believe in this reason, after being a dark team for so long, he still knew the unwritten rules of the Sin Slave Workshop.

When there are too many people in it, in addition to rewarding some officials, they will be thrown into the official kiln to earn money for the government. How many people can fit in a kiln? How big was the Jin Dynasty? There will simply be no situation where there are too many people in the so-called Sin Slave Workshop and there is an urgent need to make a move.

Of course, these things are all secret, except for those who have been in contact with them, no one else knows about them, and there is no record of them in the books.

So Li Xie immediately believed Dark Twenty's statement, Dark Twenty was also a member of the government before, and he would probably not do such a thing that knew the law and broke the law. Just looking at the woman in front of him, Li Xie felt that his head hurt a little.

"Why are they all women?" God knows that Li Xie's dignitaries want them to clean up. Of course, men are better at doing these physical tasks than women.

"This is an inner house, adults always have to get married in the future, but not to mention in the future, now the sister-in-law of the Lu family also lives here, and it is always inconvenient for the male servant to enter and exit." Dark Twenty answered as a matter of course. No matter which large family the inner house is in, it is rare to see a male servant.

Li Xie was sweating when he heard this, how could his family pay attention to these things?

"Or have you changed the man? I mostly ask people to do some manual work, so ......"

It didn't matter if she heard this, but the dozen or so women kneeling behind her all showed frightened looks.

"Your Excellency, your Excellency, you will have mercy on us. We really don't want to go back. ”

"I can do it, I can do any coolie."

"Woo~"

There are those who plead, and there are those who cry bitterly, but without exception they are all extremely emotionally excited.

"What are they ......" Li Xie looked at the dark twenty suspiciously, and the meaning of the inquiry could not be more obvious.

"Shut up!" Dark Twenty first turned his head and scolded the people behind him, and then turned around and said with a sad face: "Adults know, no matter where you are, there will be things that will not see the light." If they can't stay, I'm afraid that when they go back, they will ...... be sold into the kiln, and the secret twenty is only half done.

Li Xie thought that he understood, yes, now these people in front of him can no longer be called people, but goods, what good treatment can the goods be treated if they are returned?

"In that case, let's stay."

More than a dozen people, Li Xie will never need so many, but he is still a soft-hearted person in the end. Looking at the group of people in front of him, most of them are only in their twenties, and one or two are even younger, it seems that they can be Lu Xiaomei's playmates. With such a flower-like age, he really can't bear to watch them go back and suffer.

"Brother Twenty, let's all stay. If you want money, you can just go to Brother Su and ask for it. ”

After the dark twenty retreated, Li Xie looked at this group of people and became difficult. He can manage people, he can manage things, but he really can't manage people. In Li Xie's opinion, he doesn't have much to do as a rear office, and he can just clean up.

So:

"One step ahead among you who are literate."

To Li Xie's surprise, everyone took a step forward. Li Xie nodded, I have to say that in the end, it is the family of officials and dependents, in this world where seventy or eighty percent of people are illiterate, these dozen or so people are all literate without exception.

"Who's the oldest among you?"

At this time, a person dressed as a woman's house walked out, although it was a woman's house, but in fact, her age should be only twenty-four or five.

"Okay, that's you. In the future, they will all be under your control, and now I don't know what to ask you to do, so you can clean up this back office first, and then arrange for dinner. Anyway, you look at the arrangement. In the evening, we're gathering to introduce you to other people. Okay, that's it, go down first. ”

"Yes, sir." The man dressed as the eldest lady in the lead made a woman's salute, and then led them to retreat.

The weather was so hot that it made people feel like they were in a steamer, and the twisted world seemed to roast people, and the situation did not improve until after four o'clock in the afternoon.

In fact, the weather has been hot for a long time, but there was a light rain from time to time before, but in the past half a month, there has not been a drop of water.

Looking at this kind of weather, Li Xie thought about whether to get a swimming pool to play, you can soak in cold water in such weather, and you feel comfortable thinking about it.

The day after moving over, the yamen was lively, and the three Eight Immortals tables were full of dishes. After everyone was served, Li Xie introduced Su Ci, Huang Yu, Lu Xiaomei and Linghua to the newcomers one by one.

These newcomers also reported their names one by one, and when everyone was introduced, Li Xie didn't have anything to say, so he said a word to start eating, so he moved his chopsticks first and sandwiched a piece of Dongpo meat for Lu Xiaomei.

After eating, Li Xie went back to the room by himself, thinking about getting some water to take a bath, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw a large bathtub filled with half a bucket of water. Li Xie finally sighed at the treatment of the landlord, took off his clothes, jumped into the bucket, and suddenly felt comfortable.

Leaning comfortably on the back of the bucket, Li Xie, who was about to fall asleep, heard a gentle knock on the door: "My lord, have you washed it?" The slave and maid come in and change your clothes. ”

Li Xie's frightened eyes opened: "No! After saying that, he hurriedly got up, wiped his body clean, got dressed, and grabbed a book from the side before walking out of the room. I saw a man sitting on the stone steps outside the door, and he was one of the slaves who had just come today.

"What are you doing here with me?"

There are four wings in the southeast and northwest of this back office, there are Qingfeng, Dexin, Mingxue, and three small courtyards. Li Xie's courtyard was the one he practiced on weekdays when he hadn't moved here, and it was the small courtyard closest to the front office.

Li Xie clearly remembered that these slaves and maids lived in a wing room, and there was still a constant distance from him, so he couldn't disperse here no matter how much he walked.

"The king's steward said that the slave and maid will take care of the adults in the future."

This king is Wang Jiao, the one who was instructed by Li Xie to manage people.

"Your name is Cicada Yi, right?" Li Xie thought about it for a while, it seemed to be this name, although it was a question, but without waiting for her to answer, he spoke again: "I'm a big man, I have hands and feet, and I don't need anyone to serve, you still have to find something else to do!" ”

"My lord hates slaves!" Cicada Yi said, raised her head, and looked at Li Xie with her big eyes, and at this time, there was water in these eyes, as if Li Xie said a word, she would cry at any time.
