Zhao Ruxi buys people to do business, and in this era, it is naturally better to be male.

But when she was buying, she met a woman with good conduct and appearance, and she still stayed.

Women have a much harder time in this world than men. It didn't matter if she bought one more person, but it gave these women a chance. In fact, in many things, women do not do worse than men. If there is something right for her, she prefers to use women over men.

Of course, don't think about "men and women match, don't get tired of work". This is not allowed in this era.

Therefore, among the thirty-five people she bought, in addition to eight women in these four families, she also bought seven women, a total of fifteen.

One of them was a cook, and Twenty-Seven or Eight was a widow and alone; Two maids, fourteen or fifteen years old. These three people were betrayed by the criminal officials, and they seem to be their own people.

The other four were all village girls, and they were all twelve to fifteen years old when they couldn't eat at home.

In these years, female popularity is the most basic skill of women, even the village girl has to learn it, after all, after getting married, the clothes of the whole family have to be made by them. It was not difficult for each of the fifteen women to rush a set of bedding. Naturally, it is impossible for one person to have a set, and it is no problem for two people to share a set.

So Zhao Ruxi adopted the suggestion of sister-in-law Sun.

"Are you in charge of the old house? Then I'll leave today's affairs to him. Zhao Ruxi said.

It is necessary to count how much cloth is needed to make bedding and clothes, and who is instructed to buy it and who to work. Since Wang Zhongren recommended Zhou Chun and said that he was capable, then she would take a look at Zhou Chun's ability now.

If she is capable, she can be regarded as someone who can be used.

Sister-in-law Sun suddenly smiled happily and saluted Zhao Ruxi: "Thank you girl for giving us the opportunity to be in charge." ”

As she spoke, she quickly turned her head and asked her daughter to call her husband over.

After Zhou Chun came over, Zhao Ruxi said what he had just said. She deliberately only gave orders, and did not say how to do it, to see Zhou Chun's own adaptability.

As soon as he came, he could be reused by the master, and Zhou Chun was naturally happy.

He asked, "Can I call everyone present?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Ruxi nodded, "Except for the bed on the Zhuangzi, there is nothing else." You need to buy everything you need within three quarters of an hour, such as bedding, clothing, food, spices, cooking utensils, dishes and chopsticks, etc. Where you buy it, my coachman Ruber can take you. It was getting late, and in three quarters of an hour, we had to go to Zhuangzi. ”

"Yes." Zhou Chun saluted.

He first instructed his wife: "Count all the cloth you will use." ”

"Okay." Sister-in-law Sun knew that if this matter could be done well, her husband would be able to be reused by the master, and it was an excellent opportunity that must be seized. So she hurriedly took her daughter to count.

Seeing this, Zhao Ruxi instructed Qingfeng to take a charcoal pen and some blank paper to Sister-in-law Sun, and taught her how to use it.

Over there, Zhou Chun called the widow cook again and said, "Sister-in-law Li, everyone's food will be handed over to you, and you will bring a few little girls to cook it." What do you need to buy, you tell my daughter, ask her to write it down, and then go and buy it later. ”

Zhou Chun's daughter was only twelve years old, and she was originally given the name of a maid in the criminal official's mansion, called Kwai Er, because she had only been working for a short time, she was only a third-class maid.

She was young, but she was a clever one. She had already seen the charcoal and paper used by Qingfeng at her mother's place, asked her for one, and ran over to help Sister-in-law Li count them.

Zhou Chun reminded her: "There are a total of thirty-five people here, one person, one bowl and a pair of chopsticks, you should write this down first." ”

Zhou Kuier hurriedly wrote, then raised her eyes to look at Sister-in-law Li, who hurriedly reported the cooking utensils she wanted to buy.

Seeing that these two things were done, Zhou Chun asked Zhao Ruxi: "Girl, is Zhuangzi far away from here?" If it is not far away, we can take two things after we have bought something, and we can take it, without hiring a mule cart; Otherwise, you'll have to hire a mule cart to transport something. ”

"Far away." Zhao Ruxi said, "Send someone to hire a mule cart, not only to transport things, but also to ride together." ”

"Which one is Rubeus?" Zhou Chun asked again.

Zhao Ruxi pointed in the direction where Lu Bo was.

Zhou Chun gave a salute and ran over, and after talking to Lu Bo for a while, he came back to report to Zhao Ruxi: "Lu Bo said that we were going out of the city, and we happened to pass by the market where we bought things. Although it is not a big market today, the grocery money and clothing shops that sell things are next to the market. The villain thought, why don't we hire a mule cart here directly, buy something and leave? ”

Zhao Ruxi is already very satisfied with Zhou Chun.

The level of education in this era was not high, and many people did not have a bright brain. A person like Zhou Chun, who puts the main before the second, the first priority and then the lightest, arranges things clearly, and knows how to coordinate the time, is already a rare talent.

Coming from the modern era, she knows best what is the most rare, that is, talent. The two hundred taels of silver that she spent on the king's men was not a loss.

She smiled and nodded, "Yes, just do what you want." ”

Sister-in-law Sun had already calculated the fabrics she needed, and when she came over, she was overjoyed to hear Zhao Ruxi's praise for her husband.

Zhou Chun didn't care about this, and after giving a salute, he summoned his fifteen-year-old son and asked him to follow Ruber outside to hire a mule cart.

After a while, the mule cart came, and he came over first to ask Zhao Ruxi, and after getting her approval, he beckoned people to go out and get into the car.

Zhao Ruxi followed them to the door, and saw that Zhou Chun did not ask these people to swarm into the car, but arranged them one by one.

Those families, he disassembled and arranged them into two or three cars, and the same criminal official's family sold them, and the scattered ones were also matched. The male owners of the four families all stayed at the end to get on the bus. Of course, men and women naturally ride separately.

At this time, you can see the character of some people.

There are two village girls, estimated to be from one village, and if the two are not separated, they will have to be in the same car.

Before Zhou Chun could speak, Sister-in-law Sun scared them and said: "If you sell yourself, you are a slave, and you can do whatever the master tells you to do." If you are so disobedient, the girl will return it to the Chinese people. Then the Chinese will sell you to the kiln......"

She didn't say anything, but the two little girls were frightened, looked at Zhao Ruxi, who was silently looking at them but didn't speak, and quickly got into a carriage obediently.

The two little girls were afraid, Zhao Ruxi could understand, and she didn't have any thoughts about them. But she secretly wrote down the other two young men who disobeyed orders.

Because he was going to put things on the car later, Zhou Chun only arranged for six people to take a car, a total of six cars, plus Zhao Ruxi's own carriage, and the group set off to the market in a mighty way.
