Chapter 76 Buying People
"Really?" Lu Ziyun said with some suspicion.
"Really, of course really!" Lu Ziqing assured.
Lu Ziyun, who was guaranteed by Lu Ziqing, didn't say anything, but when she saw Lu Ziqing's next stop, she almost fainted, because the place where Lu Ziqing came next was actually a slave market.
In fact, Lu Ziqing doesn't like buying and selling people very much, but she understands the principle of following the customs, so for the sake of the future, she still came to the slave market to buy slaves.
Because he felt that the official tooth was reliable, Lu Ziqing was looking for the official tooth.
Looking at the dress of Lu Ziqing and the others, the official teeth were not very enthusiastic, and they dealt with it very casually
"I don't know what kind of people Miss Lu wants to find?"
Lu Ziqing: "Just be honest and do rough work!" ”
Guanya thought that Lu Ziqing was looking for something cheap, so she asked people to bring the cheapest slave in her hand up
"Miss Lu, do you have anything you are satisfied with?"
Looking at the row of slaves in front of her, Lu Ziqing stood up and walked past them one by one, and after reading it, she looked at Lu Ziyun and the others and asked
"Do you have a fancy?"
Suddenly hearing Lu Ziqing ask them, Lu Ziyun and the others were a little confused.
Looking at the few people who were staring at her, Lu Ziqing felt that she had asked such a stupid question, how could she ask the opinions of these people who had never bought them?
So Lu Ziqing stroked her forehead and looked at Lu Ziyun beside her
"Second sister, don't you have a fancy either?"
"Hmm!" Lu Ziyun, who came back to her senses, although she didn't know why Lu Ziqing asked like this, she knew that Lu Ziqing would not ask like this for no reason, so she followed Lu Ziqing's words
"They don't look like people who do menial work!"
"Yes, their hands are not rough, so they can't do our work in the countryside!" At this time, Lu Ziyi roughly guessed what Lu Ziqing was going to do when he bought someone back, so he said his thoughts.
"Ziyi, you're right, these people are cheating and tricksters at first glance, and they must have been sold by the master's family!" Lu Zixiao also interjected.
Hearing the words of several people, Lu Ziqing nodded with satisfaction and looked at the official tooth
"It seems that the proprietress doesn't have what we need here, so our sisters and brothers won't bother!"
The proprietress thought that Lu Ziqing was playing with herself, so she was a little angry
"Miss Lu, we have other things here besides these cheap people to deal with, but at this price, I just don't know if a few sons and girls can afford it!"
Lu Ziqing didn't like the words of the official tooth, but thinking of the reason of shopping around, she said
"Then please trouble the proprietress to bring someone to take a look!"
"Good!" Seeing that Lu Ziqing was not light, the official made a decision to bring the slaves who were doing rough work in their hands.
Looking at the dozens of slaves in front of her, Lu Ziqing still walked around in front of them, and after turning, she stood in front of them and said face to face
"If you were to be asked to do rough work in the countryside, would you be willing to come with me?"
Dozens of slaves heard that it was rough work in the country, and most of them felt that the work in the country must be tiring, so few people were willing.
Looking at the ten people who stood up, Lu Ziqing looked them up and down, then looked at four of them and asked
"Are you a family?"
"Yes, Miss." The man of the four replied.
Looking at the honest man, Lu Ziqing asked sharply
"Does your family have to be in the same main house?"
"Yes, Miss." The man replied again.
has been an official for many years, and she naturally saw Lu Ziqing's idea of wanting to buy the family, so she boasted to herself
"Miss Lu, this family is an old man in the family who wants to sell two little girls into the building for the future of their eldest son, and the couple has to sell themselves into slavery in order to protect their daughter, so it's absolutely no problem to do rough work."
For this family, Guanya has a bit of a headache, because these two little girls look very malnourished, so it is difficult for this family to sell to a main family, and now that Lu Ziqing wants to buy it, she must be sympathetic.
"Louzi?" Lu Ziqing still knew the word Louzi, so she looked at the family of four, frowned, and asked the man
"Do you hate them?"
Thinking of the picture when his parents wanted to sell their two daughters into the building for the sake of his eldest brother's future, the man smiled bitterly
"Since you have been sold into slavery, you should repay the grace of your parents!"
The meaning of the man's words, Lu Ziqing understood, although he would not hate the ruthless parents, but he would not recognize the ruthless parents, so Lu Ziqing was satisfied with the man's answer, after all, she did not like foolish and filial people.
Looking at the two little girls with yellow faces and thin muscles, Lu Ziqing walked up to the youngest little girl and asked
"Little sister, how old are you this year?"
The little girl Vivino said, "Miss Hui, the slave is five years old this year!" ”
Because in the few days since they came here, the official tooth has taught them how to call them, so the little girl will call herself a slave.
Thinking of these days, as soon as those masters heard that they were selling together as a family, they didn't ask, the little girl looked at Lu Ziqing and begged
"Miss, are you okay to buy a slave family? Although the slave is small, the slave and the maid will do a lot of work and eat little! ”
Looking at the little girl's begging eyes, Lu Ziqing remembered herself in her previous life, so she beckoned to Lu Zixi
"Xi'er, can the eighth sister buy you a maid to play with you?"
"Really, Eighth Sister?" Lu Zixi said happily: "Xi'er will be able to have her own personal maid like Miss Zhou in the future?" ”
Looking at Lu Zixi, who was smiling happily, Lu Ziqing replied with a smile
"Yes!" After Lu Ziqing finished replying, she looked at Lu Ziyun again and said, "Second sister, what do you think?" ”
"It's good for the eighth sister to make a decision!" This time, Lu Ziyun didn't object, because she felt that this family was really pitiful.
With Lu Ziyun's consent, Lu Ziqing looked at the official tooth and said
"Hostess, how much is their family?"
Hearing Lu Ziqing ask the price, Guan Ya replied with a smile
"Sixty taels of silver!"
For sixty taels of silver to be able to buy four big living people, Lu Ziqing sighed in her heart, feeling that the lives of this ancient person were worthless, but she was still bargaining after following the customs
"Boss, isn't your price a little too high? This family, except for two adults who can work, these two little girls are not worth a few silver dollars! Lu Ziqing said as she pointed at the two little girls.
"Huh!" Looking at the two little girls with yellow faces and thin muscles, Guan Ya laughed embarrassedly twice
"Miss Lu, two adults are twenty taels of silver each, although these two little girls are small, but they sell them for life, so they are ten taels of silver!"
"Fifty taels!" Lu Ziqing replied.
