Chapter 82: Skinny Horse
"A few ladies, do you want to find some maids?"
Wu Zhi walked to the carriage where the three ladies were riding and asked, this kind of inner house house, Wu Zhi naturally had to discuss with the three ladies before he dared to do it.
This is the martial arts family style, where men and women are equal, and husbands and wives respect each other.
"But the officials are going to the city wall to buy maids?" Hu Sanniang lifted the curtain of the carriage door and asked Wu Zhi.
"Exactly, some maids walked when I moved, and now it's time to make up for it, what do you think?"
"It's okay, when you arrive at your new home, you will inevitably need more people to take care of it, Sanniang is still short of a close-fitting one, and the kitchen is not enough...... The officials will bring a few more that are pleasing to the eye. Pan Jinlian in the car thought about it for a while and said to Wu Zhi.
Although Jin Lian does not have an official name, but in terms of housekeeping ability, Xue'er and Hu Sanniang are not as good as her, even if there is no housekeeper in Wuzhi Mansion in Yanggu County, she is well organized, fair and harmonious, which is all the credit of Pan Jinlian.
"Good! Yes, sir! ”
"Officials, they are all children of poor families, even if they don't look at them, they will give them some money to help them."
Wu Zhi was about to turn around, but Xue'er inside stopped him and instructed.
Xue'er was originally from a poor background, and this time she was naturally more sympathetic to those children, and after she finished instructing, Pan Jinlian and Hu Sanniang on the side also nodded approvingly to Xue'er.
"Sister Xue'er is right, don't slam the door!"
"Hey, hey! Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to send money! ”
After discussing with the ladies, Wu Zhi asked Jiang Jing to take the silver and strode towards the city wall.
Shopkeeper Zhang is a local, seeing that Wu Zhi wants to buy a maid, he naturally has to follow closely to the left and right, and Wu Song also follows behind, only Brother Yun and Xiao Rang consciously stay in the convoy to guard.
The little girls standing "for sale" on the side of the city wall are not very old, the younger ones are about eight or nine years old, and the older ones are only sixteen or seventeen years old, which is the age suitable for being maids.
The maid world is generally a girl under the age of eighteen, and after the age of eighteen, the woman should get married, and the woman who buys more than the age of eighteen is not called a maid, but a concubine.
After Wu Zhi came over, he thought for a while, there were probably less than twenty little girls in this row, Wu Zhi decided to do a good thing, so he started asking the price from the little girl in the first place.
Each little girl is accompanied by a parent, most of them are parents, but also accompanied by grandparents or brothers, buyers can ask them for the specific age, name, price, etc. of the little girl, after fanciing, as long as the price is paid, you can take it directly.
"Aha! This little girl looks quite smart, how old is she? What is it called? How much? Wu Zhi came to the first little girl, and saw that the girl was not bad, so he asked a man next to the girl who had some vicissitudes of life.
"Twelve years old, called Xiaohua, five taels of silver can be taken away by a big official." The man saw that Wu Zhi was a rich man, and although his smile was a little obscene, his face was friendly and not like a bad person, so he replied respectfully.
"Well, good! I bought the little flower, and I will give you fifty taels of silver! ”
Unlike bargaining with others, Wu Zhi doubled the price tenfold as soon as he opened his mouth!
Do good deeds!
Jiang Jing behind him heard this, and Ma Li sealed fifty taels of silver and handed it to the man, and the man immediately bowed to Wu Zhi excitedly and said, "Thank you, thank you for your generosity!" ”
"Haha! Meaning little, meaning little! That, remember, I'm the big boss of the proud building, my name is Wu Zhi. Wu Zhi reminded.
To do good deeds, you have to leave a name!
"Thank you, the military officials!" The man bowed again with gratitude.
Wu Zhi nodded, smiled with satisfaction, and walked to the next little girl, and the girl who bought it behind her had her own shopkeeper to lead her.
"Hehe, why did this little girl lose weight like this, she is obviously malnourished, she can't be a maid!" The family behind the second girl was secretly sad by Wu Zhi's words, Wu Zhi changed his words, and continued with a big grin: "Come on, come on!" Give you forty taels of silver, go and buy some new grain fields, and remember to raise the little girl to be white and fat! ”
The family behind the girl was stunned for a moment, and after receiving Wu Zhi's silver, they immediately bowed to Wu Zhi with gratitude, this big official is really a good person, he is willing to pay to help them if he doesn't buy their daughter, he is really a living Bodhisattva!
"Remember, my name is Wu Zhi!"
……
"Yo! This little girl is so dark that she is not suitable to be a maid! Come, give fifty taels, go home and take good care of this girl, it's hard to find your in-laws when you grow up so dark! ”
"My name is Wu Zhi......"
"Hey, this little girl is very festive, how much is it? What, eight taels of silver? Come, give you eighty taels! ”
"No thanks, my name is Wu Zhi......"
“…… Come on, come on, give you sixty taels of silver for nothing, and find a good family to marry this girl. ”
"I won't buy this girl, I'll give you a hundred taels of silver, your family should go to the city to make a living, and don't join the army."
“…… Seventy taels will be given to you. ”
"This is your ninety taels ......"
"Eighty taels ......"
"One Hundred and Two ......"
……
"My name is Wu Zhi......"
"My name is Wu Zhi......"
……
……
After a while, Wu Zhi only bought three little girls with good qualifications, and every other family that sold children, Wu Zhi gave them more or less silver taels depending on the conditions, Wu Zhi with a larger population gave them more, and Wu Zhi with women and children would also give more, in short, every amount of silver given by Wu Zhi was enough for them to go to the city to rent a place to live and eat for a few months.
As long as they are diligent and find a job to earn income, then they will be able to stabilize in Qingzhou.
Of course, after these people took the money and left, they all deeply remembered the name of Wu Zhi, the big boss of the proud building.
Every time I give money, I brainwash and repeatedly tell others my name, and of course others are embarrassed not to remember the name Wuzhi deeply......
Anyway, it's a good deed, and leaving a name is just by the way, and Wu Zhi didn't feel embarrassed.
There is also the last little girl, and Wu Zhi also gave out more than 1,400 taels of silver before and after, which made the shopkeeper Zhang who followed him both shocked and admired, of course, looking at his expression or frightened elements, after all, it was the first time he had met such a large amount of money.
On the contrary, Wu Song and Jiang Jing were still calm as usual, but the depths of their eyes when they looked at Wu Zhi were full of appreciation and admiration!
A tael of silver is equal to a thousand denarii in the Hereafter.
As soon as Wu Zhi made a move, the minimum was 45,000, and 108,000 was sent, and it only took a while to send 1.4 million!
More than 1,400 taels of silver, Jiang Jing ran back to the carriage to get the silver five times!
Not only did Wu Zhi get more and more cool and couldn't stop at all, Wu Song and Jiang Jing behind him were extremely excited when they saw that so many poor families had received enough help to start a business, and they secretly applauded when they saw Wu Zhi handing out money, but they also felt very happy!
What does it mean to roar when the road is uneven, and to shoot when it is time to shoot?
That's it!
Compared with using martial arts to beat people and help others, it is more refreshing and powerful to send money directly!
……
……
The last little girl was about eight or nine years old, with pigtails, big eyes flickering, full of mischievous smiles and kept looking at the people who came and went, as if they were very funny, and did not know that she was a poor child who was about to be sold as a maid.
And the little girl is very white and tender, with a melon seed face, willow leaves and eyebrows, two pieces of pink baby fat under her cheeks, and the cherry mouth pouts and laughs from time to time, which looks very cute!
Wu Zhi felt fond of this little girl at a glance, such a cute little girl, anyone who sees it can't help but love it, Hu Sanniang still lacks a personal maid by her side, it's her!
It's just that Wu Zhi also secretly laughed a few times, according to Sanniang's personality, this girl is so cute, I'm afraid that Sanniang will take care of her and be a maid for her at that time.
Even the three big men, Wu Song, Jiang Jing and Shopkeeper Zhang, after seeing this little girl, also showed a father-like doting color in their eyes.
"Hey, how much silver does your little girl have?"
It wasn't Wu Zhi who asked the price, and before Wu Zhi could speak, he was preempted.
The person who asked the price was a tall middle-aged man, who was also dressed in luxurious clothes, and he also exuded the momentum that a rich and noble person should have, and it seemed that he was also the master of a large family.
Next to the tall man stood a short and fat man with a mustache, about fifty years old, also dressed in gold and jade, rich and powerful, but the rosacea nose on the fat man's folded face was a little unappetizing.
The two were surrounded by a group of family members, and their expressions were a little arrogant.
"Back to the officials, my daughter's baby is a little more expensive, twenty taels of silver." A middle-aged man in a shabby Confucian shirt next to the girl replied politely, looking at the man's demeanor, he should have been a scholar before the disaster.
No wonder such a cute little girl hasn't been bought for a long time, it turns out to be a matter of price, except for Wu Zhi, who throws money like this, ordinary people will not spend twenty taels of silver to buy a working maid.
Wu Zhi saw that he was preempted by others, so he had to plan to leave, although he was very sorry, but this street business is about a first-come, first-served, if Wu Zhi is a hard stick, then it is a broken rule, it is domineering, and it will offend people.
Wu Zhi is not afraid of offending people, but he has just arrived in Qingzhou, and he can't offend people for this little thing.
That cute little girl is loved by everyone, and flowers bloom, for her, there is no difference between being bought by other rich and noble families and being bought by Wu Zhi.
Why does a cute girl have to be bought by you Wu Zhi, isn't this domineering?
Wu Zhi usually lives a nourishing and moist life, and he is also kind and humble to people, he is not a domineering person, of course, except for the fact that he is a little domineering when he gives money......
"Haha, Li Yuanwai, this little girl is so good, how about Huang buy it to be a 'skinny horse' with you?"
"Hey~ Boss Huang has a heart, so Li can only laugh! Hey! ”
As soon as Wu Zhi turned around and wanted to leave, the tall man who called himself Huang smiled at the fat man surnamed Li.
"Skinny !!"
After hearing this word, Wu Zhi immediately stopped, and then he turned around with a very resolute and domineering attitude!
