Chapter 127: The Lord and the Lord
"All the news that this Xunxianglou can find out is directly given to the two of them, and some of the news is more precious than gold and silver."
"The two of you came to look for Xianglou, and it was the idea of collecting news."
The man's words successfully stopped Xie Shiyun and Feiyu from leaving, Xie Shiyun thought for a while and felt that what he said was indeed reasonable, this Xunxianglou could be used by her as the second-in-command, and she took advantage of it. However, she also realized a problem, that is, how long did she buy the right to use it for 100,000 taels of silver.
"Childe is really not an ordinary person, and he guessed the meaning of my plan so thoroughly. Now that the words have come to this point, how long can I buy the right to use the Xianglou with my 100,000 taels of silver? ”
The man didn't speak, only heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
It was Madame Mei and the attendant who had just gone out who came in, and Madame Mei had a respectful smile on her face at this time, holding a wooden plate in her hand. There is a fold on it, which seems to be a delivery agreement.
"Girl, please take a look."
Xie Shiyun took the excerpt and read it. Fei Yu always paid attention to her face, only to see Xie Shiyun's brows stretched, and there was a slight smile in her eyes. It seems that his conditions are very much in line with Xie Shiyun's intentions. In this case, she was relieved.
"What does the girl think?"
"100,000 taels of silver in exchange for the right to use the Xianglou for ten years, the son's magnanimity to make a move amazes me."
Xunxianglou is making money every day, and the profits are divided equally between him, and he can also earn back the principal of 100,000 taels in two years. In the remaining years, she can not only get a lot of news, but also expand her wealth a lot. Count the taxes on her fiefdom, and her money. Within a few years, the property in her name was more than enough to form an army of tens of thousands of people.
Fei Yu didn't think anything of it, after all, she knew him, and with his identity and background, the money would not be in her eyes. And Mrs. Kanmei didn't know her, and wanted to come to Xunxianglou only in his name. After so many years, he can be regarded as a rich party.
"Naturally, you can't care about these things outside your body when making friends, is the girl willing to sign this agreement?"
"Okay."
The attendant took out another fold from behind the screen, put it in front of Xie Shiyun, and took the fold she had signed in her hand. Xie Shiyun opened it and looked at it, and found the man's fingerprint, and she also understood what it meant, so she printed another fingerprint.
"Mrs. Mei, keep this good life in my hand, and you can keep the girl's share for yourself."
"Yes, master."
"Now that the contract has been signed, we have other things, so let's not bother for now."
Fei Yu put away the fold and prepared to take Xie Shiyun away. However, she was stopped by the man again.
"What else?"
"You can take this jade pendant, and you can use it to withdraw money from any money bank ticket number, and you can take as much as you want."
Fei Yu sneered, "If I take ten thousand taels of gold, I can also get it?" ”
"Self-obtained."
"In that case, don't let it be in vain, then I'll take it."
Fei Yu took the jade pendant in the form of a feather from the hand of the attendant and tied it around his waist. The color of the jade pendant is very transparent, and you can see that it is worth a lot of money at a glance. But she didn't care, just an ordinary pendant.
After the two of them left, the man stepped out from behind the screen. said to Mrs. Mei, "In the future, half of the profits of Xunxianglou will be directly deposited into her name after she delivers it to me." ”
Mrs. Mei didn't ask which girl it was, but she was also a clear-eyed person, so she naturally understood it in her heart.
"Yes, master."
A few days later, the Kyoto market was crowded, the lunch market was open, and the clamor continued.
"The freshest and most delicious buns, each only costs five cents!"
"Horn comb! Ten pennies for a handful, a fake one for a hundred! You can't buy it for ten cents, you can't buy it for ten cents, you can't be fooled......"
"Western Regions mutton skewers, a string of five cents!! It's not delicious, don't pay for it! Don't miss it when you walk by! It doesn't matter if you buy it or not, take a look, take a look and try it, try it for free......"
A few days ago, the army of the Summoned Kingdom was pressed and the Great Chen Dynasty was about to go to war, but Kyoto was still prosperous.
Suddenly, the front of the road was surrounded by water, mixed with a burst of shouting and scolding: "Let you not fight!" Not eye-catching, no owner to buy! ”
Xie Shiyun frowned and stepped forward to see what was going on.
Fei Yu hurried in front of Xie Shiyun and pushed aside the crowd that was encircling.
It is a dental shop, a place that specializes in buying and selling people.
What catches your eye is a cart with slaves, and the price of each slave is clearly marked.
Xie Shiyun asked a lady present what happened, and the lady wiped her tears, sighed and said: "Evil, these children have no parents at such a young age, and in order to have a full meal, they have become slaves!" The old body has no ability, he can't help them, Childe, if you have money, save them, they haven't drunk a sip of water, haven't eaten a grain of rice, the sun is so big, they can't last long! ”
Xie Shiyun's eyes sank, it turned out that there was still such an embarrassment at the feet of the Son of Heaven, she thought that the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but she didn't know how many people were suffering like these children.
Although the slave trafficker's behavior of buying and selling slaves was against the right path, the slave trade was legal in the Dachen Dynasty, and even though she was a princess, there was nothing she could do.
There were many officials who proposed to Emperor An He to abolish the slavery system, but it was not practical, and the operation of the Great Chen Dynasty needed to rely on slaves. Slavery has existed for thousands of years, and there must be a reason for its existence.
The Great Chen Dynasty was a vast country, and this kind of violent slave trade existed in many places, but what could be done? As long as slavery is not abolished, this unconscionable behavior will exist.
Seeing that Xie Shiyun was dressed at the level of a big family, the slave trader took the initiative to step forward and flattered: "Son, is there a shortage of manpower in the family?" These little slaves are shrewd and capable, and they can't afford to lose money if they buy them back......"
The traffickers were gushing and boasting, Xie Shiyun nodded, she didn't listen to many traffickers, but locked her eyes on the car.
"Childe, buy me, buy me, I can do anything!"
Many little slaves were crying and making trouble, longing for someone to save them from fire and water, and the three or five young men in the corner, although they were beaten to the ground, did not say a word, and in the face of Xie Shiyun's sharp gaze, there was no timidity in their eyes.
Xie Shiyun had a number in her heart, pointed to a few teenagers in the corner, and said, "The five of them, I want it!" ”
"Thirty taels of silver, thank you, Childe!"
Fei Yu was puzzled by the princess's behavior of buying slaves, but took out three ingots and ten taels of silver taels according to the price and delivered them to the slave traders.
"Wait, the rest is also bought, money? Is fifty taels enough? ”
