Zhen Qian used fifty-six yuan to buy seven slaves at once, which made Wang You on the side a little anxious, kept squeezing his eyebrows and winking at himself, and secretly pulled Zhen Qian's sleeves.

The contract for the sale of slaves was quickly completed, and Cao Renyi waited for Zhen Qian to pay him the money, but he didn't see Zhen Qian's opening of his mouth to mention the money, and finally couldn't help but say: "Zhen Dalang, this transaction has been done, is this money ......!" ”

Zhen Qian glared at him, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Am I like a person who doesn't pay?" ”

Cao Renyi wasn't worried that Zhen Qian would have bad debts, but he didn't see anything about taking the initiative to withdraw money, and he didn't know what Zhen Qian's calculations were in his heart.

"Zhen Dalang misunderstood, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for the Zhen family, how can it be less than this money!"

Zhen Qian also ignored Cao Renyi's noise, and said to Wang You beside him: "Write an IOU to Cao's shopkeeper, and come to Zhen's Mansion to withdraw money today next month!" ”

"What! I want to owe money! ”

Cao Renyi never dreamed that Zhen Qian would come to this hand, this is the first time he has seen him in business for more than 20 years, and he was a little blinded all of a sudden, he used to have money and property and no arrears, didn't Zhen Qian understand?

"This ...... Zhen Dalang, this doesn't seem to be in accordance with the rules! ”

Zhen Qian ignored Cao Renyi and said to Wang You: "Indicate on the IOU that if the slave sold within this month dies of illness, Cao Renyi must return all the arrears and investigate Cao Renyi's responsibility for deception!" ”

Cao Renyi was stunned when he heard this, this was simply unheard of, his brain was a little unturned, he wasn't dreaming!

Zhen Qian smiled slightly, and said for a long time: "Shopkeeper Cao, look at these slaves you sold, all of them are skinny, and I don't know if there is any disease on my body, in case I buy it back and die of illness within two days, who do you say this is!" ”

Except for the man named Ayenaye, who is as strong as a cow, the six members of the Song family are really skinny as Zhen Qian said, but Cao Renyi is not a charity here, how can he give these people good food, drink and hospitality, there are not a few strong slaves in the entire slave market, but can it be said that Zhen Qian is wrong?

"Zhen Dalang, this is a bit out of line!"

"The rules are set by people, if you don't agree, this business can not be done, but I will sue you for fraud!"

Cao Renyi opened his mouth and couldn't speak at all, how could he become a fraud again, isn't this nonsense?

"Do you understand that?" Zhen Qian's face became gloomy, and he took the slave contract in his hand and said, "You can't even guarantee a month's life if you sell your ears, isn't it a fraud?" ”

Cao Renyi wanted to cry without tears, Zhen Qian's words seemed to be reasonable, in case the slave died as soon as he went out, it was really unclear who it was, but he always felt that there was something wrong with Zhen Qian's words, and he couldn't find a flaw all of a sudden, so he had to nod and said: "Okay, just one month, and after a month, there will be no more to do with people and money!" ”

"That's natural, I didn't say that the shopkeeper Cao should be in charge for a lifetime, a month is not a long time, can't the shopkeeper Cao wait?"

Cao Renyi watched with a dull gaze as Zhen Qian took the seven people out of the room, and hit his head vigorously with his hands, unable to understand why he agreed to Zhen Gan's request, looking at the ceiling in frustration, holding an IOU of fifty-six yuan in his hand, and muttering to himself: "Isn't this a loss for Mrs. and a soldier?" ”

Zhen Qian didn't want to bring the seven slaves he had just bought back to Zhen's mansion, which was his private property, so he said to Wang You: "There is a house for rent in Zhending City, I want to rent a room to house these people?" ”

Wang You didn't understand why Zhen Qian did this, Zhen Qian's yard was not small, and it would never be a problem for a few more people to live, but Zhen Qian wanted to rent a house outside, and he didn't know what Zhen Qian was thinking for a while!

"Da Lang, it's not easy to find a house for rent in Zhending City for a while, but how many houses are rented outside the city, how about placing these people outside the city?"

Zhen Qian is not bad to think about, he doesn't have much money in his hands now, and the houses in the city are definitely more expensive than those outside the city, so it is better to place these people outside the city.

The carriage drove to the outside of the city, and found a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits five miles away from Zhending City, and the old man who listened to the door said that the family was doing business abroad all the year round, and these courtyards had long been uninhabited, and they were reluctant to sell them.

The rent is not expensive, five hundred wen per month, the area is enough for four or five hundred square meters, it is not a problem to live ten people, the furniture inside is complete, and you can move in with a few pieces of laundry.

After arranging the six members of the Song family, the Song family knelt down for Zhen Qian under the leadership of the old man Song Yi, there was not much gratitude in this, it was completely a form of determining the relationship between master and servant, Zhen Qian didn't care, and after getting along for a long time in the future, he would naturally be sincere.

"Master, the old slave took the whole family to thank the master for saving his life, I don't know what the master wants the Song family to do in the future?"

The three generations of the Song family, the old, middle-aged and the young, are all craftsmen who carve epitaphs, of course Zhen Qian will not let the Song family carve epitaphs for the dead, and he has already made up his mind and said: "The three generations of your Song family should all know words!" ”

Song Yi nodded and said: "Back to the master's words, the three generations of the Song family do know some words, but they can't be compared with readers, they can only say that they know words!" ”

"That's good!" Zhen Qian didn't expect to be able to buy some scholars, so he was satisfied: "Then let me ask you, do you know how to carve gold and stone?" ”

Song Yi was slightly stunned and said, "Yes!" The craftsmanship between the carvings is the same, although it is not said how good the carving is, at least it can be handled, but the owner wants the Song family to carve something? ”

"Sort of!" Zhen Qian's heart is happy, the Tang Dynasty's engraving and printing has begun to take shape, to the Song Dynasty, the engraving printing technology reached its peak, and it was at that time that Bi Sheng invented movable type printing, the technology is continuous, scientific and technological faults and jumps will not appear at all, and he is a cheater in history.

Song Yi doesn't care, the master will do whatever he wants, there's nothing to say.

Zhen Qian asked Wang You to take out two pieces of money and handed it to Song Yi and said: "There is some money here, first, you can buy some food and cloth by yourself, and live here with peace of mind, and secondly, don't leave your craftsmanship behind, buy some harder wood to use as gold and stone, first carve some words on the wood casually, I will come over and take a look after a while, and I will arrange new things for you!" ”

Song Yi also thought that Zhen Qian was considering the craftsmanship of his ancestors and grandchildren, and he didn't dare to ask more, he had already calculated in his heart that he must do a good job in this matter, otherwise if Zhen Qian was not satisfied, the Song family of six would not have a good time in the future.

Wang You didn't know what Zhen Qian wanted to do, it was already a little strange to buy the six members of the Song family, and now let them carve words on wood, could it be that Zhen Qian was going to open a gold and stone seal carving shop.

"Da Lang, even if this gold and stone seal carving shop is really opened, I'm afraid there will be no business, please think twice!"

Wang You felt that as Zhen Qian's scholar, it was necessary to remind him, who had made Zhen Qian's brain hurt before? Even if there is no strange behavior, you will not be surprised, if you make another mistake and go crazy, it is nothing to lose a little money, and you are afraid of being laughed at by the Zhen family.

Zhen Qian didn't want to explain more, of course he wouldn't go to open a gold and stone seal carving shop, this kind of business requires famous carving, and he is not stupid enough to be so stupid as far as the carving technology of the three generations of the Song family is concerned. Secondly, the gold and stone seal carving shop does not have much profit, and this year is mostly a private hobby, and there are many exchanges between readers. In the end, the biggest profit of opening a gold and stone seal carving shop is to sell gold and stone, Zhen Qian has no source of gold and stone in his hands now, so naturally he will not think about opening a gold and stone seal carving shop.

"What is Da Lang going to let the three generations of the Song family do?" Wang You asked puzzled.

Zhen Qian didn't hide it: "Open a bookstore!" ”

"Open a bookstore!" Wang Youleng paused for a moment, looked at Zhen Qian with a suspicious face, and was a little puzzled in his heart, when will the bookstore be carved by craftsmen.

Zhen Qian patted Wang You's head and said, "There are many things you don't understand yet, and you will understand when the time comes!" ”

Although the Tang Dynasty already had the rudiments of engraving printing, the circulation of most books still relied on some declining literati to copy by hand and earn a little living expenses by the way.

Of course, opening a bookstore can't make money every day, it can only be regarded as a good business, Zhen Qian didn't think about opening a bookstore at this time, but let the three generations of the Song family be idle, you can't look at the money and not make money!

Wang You smiled bitterly and shook his head, I don't know what Zhen Qian's idea is, as long as Zhen Qian is not sick, the Zhen family can afford this money.

After dealing with the affairs of the six members of the Song family, Zhen Qian came to Ayana Ye and said with a smile: "This strong man is homesick?" ”

If Zhen Qian asked other questions, Ajana Ye would definitely not want to answer the other party, but when he mentioned his hometown, Ajana Ye couldn't help but tears rolled in his eyes, it has been almost three years since he left his hometown, and he doesn't know what his home has become, how can he not miss home!

"What do you want to say?"

Ayan Naye looked at Zhen Qian vigilantly, in his heart, there were no good people in Datang, not only sold himself to buy, but also beat and scolded himself for no reason, and when he fought back, he immediately attracted more people to beat him, and he had enough of such days.

"I ask you if you are homesick and want to go home!"

"Yes!" Of course, Ajanano wanted to go home, but as soon as the words came out, he regretted it, could the young man in front of him let him go home?

"Then let me ask you, do you want your family to live a good life, do you want to go home with your eyebrows raised?"

Ajanaye didn't know what to answer, was there something wrong with the young man in front of him, and did he still have to ask these questions?

"You Tang people are too cunning, I don't believe you Tang people!"

Zhen Qian laughed, and the laughing Ayena Ye was at a loss, wondering if he was really funny? Or this person is not in his right mind, and he can't help but clench his fists, and if he doesn't agree with him, he will beat this person first.
