The crowd standing near the gate of the garden was stunned, and from beginning to end, it was as if they had a dream. Han Fei handled the scene and returned to them, they were still immersed in a dream and did not wake up.

"The evil spirits have been eradicated, and the garden is safe from now on!"

"Ahh

Xue Baoqin rushed to Han Fei, grabbed his sleeve without avoiding suspicion, and said anxiously: "Big brother, you ...... Are you okay! ”

He Cuiqin, who was standing at the back, also wanted to come forward to greet her, but when she saw this, she hurriedly stopped her steps, pursed her lips, and snorted secretly.

Han Fei smiled slightly and said, "Qin'er, you still don't believe in my ability?" Don't worry, this house will never be haunted again, you see, how well this back garden is done, a good place for leisure and entertainment! ”

"Great! Big brother, can you really live here? ”

"Of course!" Han Fei turned his head and said to the housekeeper: "Take a few little guys, take advantage of the rain and humidity, shovel all the reddish-brown soil on that wall, and throw the shoveled soil into Xuanwu Lake along with those utensils, and ask someone to repaint it after the weather clears!" ”

After another half an hour of busyness, the wall was cleaned up, He Cuiqin's master and servant said goodbye first, and the Xue family brothers and sisters followed Han Fei back to Han's house.

Wang Ruolan was pregnant and did not go over to watch it at night. When she saw Han Fei and the others coming back, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is the house?" ”

"Sister Lan, the eldest brother caught the evil ghost in the oil pot and fried it to the core!" Xue Baoqin elaborated on the experience, and said, "I didn't expect that the eldest brother could spell!" ”

Wang Ruolan's face was shocked, and she was stunned and said, "Brother Fei, didn't you mean ......"

Han Fei instructed Yin Xin to spread all the subordinates, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, there are no evil ghosts at all, I just made some tricks to show the subordinates, so that the subordinates can maintain a sense of awe!" ”

"Big brother, I obviously saw that when you shot a peach arrow against the wall, the evil ghost disappeared, and you later locked the evil ghost on yellow paper and threw it into the oil pot?"

Han Fei saw that Xue Zhen and Xue Baochai next to him were full of doubts, and said with a smile: "This is just a little trick, I drew a portrait on yellow paper with turmeric water according to the legend in advance, and sprinkled the water containing caustic soda on it, and naturally a red human shape appeared." Some charlatans catch ghosts and make a bloody handprint, and the reason is the same. ”

"I see, the little brother has seen it!" Xue Zhen said: "What about the howling portrait on the wall? ”

"Second Prince Xue is polite, that's just a natural phenomenon. As you can see, the wall is reddish-brown because the dirt contains iron, which is magnetized by lightning......"

Han Fei saw that everyone was at a loss for the second monk, and immediately understood that when he explained those new words to them, he would become more and more confused, and hurriedly said: "To put it simply, under certain conditions, the scene of the prisoner's howl has been recorded in the wall!" It wasn't a demon, it was a natural phenomenon, and of course, it was extremely rare, and if it weren't for the fear of my family, I would like to keep it......"

"Don't stay, don't stay, I'm scared when I think about it!" Xue Baoqin hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, I don't want to stay now! Okay, it's okay, let's go back and rest, and when we pick an auspicious day for the zodiac, we will move in! By the way, such a big house, I have to add a few people, catch up with Ming'er, I'm a slave market and see! ”

The existing subordinates of the Han family are indeed not enough, and when they were in Gaochun, because they did not settle down, they would have to settle down, and now they want to settle in Jinling, and they will naturally be fully equipped. The next day, when it didn't rain, Han Fei took Ling'er and rushed to the slave market.

The slave market in Jinling City is located in Xicheng, next to the mule and horse trading market, it seems that in the eyes of the government, there is no difference between slaves and mules and horses.

Walking near the entrance of the slave market, Han Fei glanced left and right and walked into a teahouse next to him.

The shopkeeper sent tea, Han Fei handed over a dozen tips, and said with a smile: "The family ordered me to buy a few slaves who were called, but I am not familiar with the slave market, and I am afraid that I will do a bad job, so please introduce the second brother!" ”

"Childe, you asked the right person, the little one is very familiar with the market inside!"

The shopkeeper gave a salute and said, "There are three sources of slaves: one is the children of poor families brought by human teeth, these people are hard-working and suitable for rough work, but they do not understand the rules of the big courtyard; The second type is the slaves provided by the head of the village, the head of the village is specialized in the slave business, these slaves have been strictly trained, understand the rules, and are suitable for serving guests; There is also a kind of family members of criminal officials sold by the Imperial Court Teaching Workshop Division, these people are from large families and come from the right way, and some of them are the children of criminal officials, who are well-read and reasonable, and large families like this kind of people the most. ”

The shopkeeper smiled mysteriously, and said: "The son is just right, today the Jiaofang Division is going to sell a batch of prisoners' families, I heard that one of them is still the daughter of the county magistrate, who looks like a flower and jade, and it is very good to buy it back as a concubine!" ”

Han Fei's eyes lit up when he saw the shopkeeper, his face was excited, and he was very emotional, Matt, they are all temperamental!

He smiled and asked, "Little Second Brother, how much does this slave cost?" ”

"It depends on whether the son buys it or not, some children of good families agree on a period of time, it is only about one tael or two taels of silver, and the price of the buy is at least four taels, and the slaves with outstanding skills can be sold for more than twenty taels, and the children of convicts sold by the Jiaofang Division have even heard of it as high as one hundred taels."

As soon as Han Fei entered the import of the street where the market was located, there were constantly people who came forward to ask for recommendations, and he did not make any statement in line with the creed of "shop around and do not suffer losses", but fortunately, in this era, people are still well-behaved, and there is no behavior of pulling people on the street.

The two walked slowly along the way, and along the way, there were many shops showing slaves in the villages, and there were young men and girls planting grass for sale on the roadside. Han Fei couldn't help but sigh with emotion, behind the aura of prosperity, there is always a gloom that is ignored by people.

At the head of the market is a square, a platform has been built, and there are many people in front of it, and there is a commotion from time to time, and Han Fei walked over with Ling'er.

A clerk on the platform pointed to the girl sitting on the platform next to him and shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have all seen that this little lady is beautiful and moving, and she is also a clear man who has not broken melons, she was born in a family of eunuchs, she is knowledgeable, and she is a top grade who warms the bed and sleeps!" The guest officer just now has already bid fifty taels of silver, has there been any price increase? ”

"I'll give fifty-five taels!"

"Sixty taels!"

……

Han Fei noticed that in the corner of the stage, there was a young man who looked like a scholar, crying and grabbing the ground, so he couldn't help but walk over and ask.

It turned out that the young man was the fiancé of the girl on the stage, and the two were going to get married soon, and they didn't want the girl's father to go to prison and reverse their fate. This young man did not forget his old feelings, with thirty taels of silver, thousands of miles away, he wanted to redeem himself for the girl, but he knew that the reality was so cruel, and his little money was powerless to change the girl's fate!

At this time, the quotation under the stage has reached eighty taels, but after eighty taels, the price increase has slowed down significantly, but it is still increasing by one or two or two, which also means that the teenager's dream cannot be realized.

When the price of the audience reached ninety-five taels of silver, there was finally no price increase, and the clerk was about to announce the final winner, when the girl suddenly looked at the young man in the audience, and cried miserably: "Cao Lang, the slave family will serve you again in the next life!" ”

Yes......

In the midst of people's exclamations, the official promptly grabbed the girl who was about to hit the pillar to seek death, and shouted: "Little slut, if you seek death at this time, your family will all be executed!" ”

The girl looked at the four people behind her, young and old, and collapsed to the ground again.

"I'll bid a hundred taels of silver!"
